Chapter 12: So, you were the murderer.
"Catching a turtle in a jar?" Yang Qin's gaze sharpened as he glanced at Yang Mu, seemingly wanting to confirm whether it was his arrangement.
Yang Mu looked bewildered; he had not made such an arrangement.
"Could it be that Master Yang is going to make a move against Tang Family Fortress and Famous Sword Manor?" The other guests exchanged glances and wondered to themselves.
Just then, Yang Lin moved his hand and struck Yang Mu beside him with a palm.
With this palm strike, a purplish-black poisonous aura burst forth from the palm.
The malevolent energy instantly condensed into a two-foot-wide palm print in the air.
Yang Mu and Yang Lin were only five feet apart.
This palm strike arrived almost instantly.
"You..." Yang Mu was shocked, as the poisonous aura had already impacted his chest.
His hair stood on end, and the scent of death filled his heart.
Just then, Yang Mu felt as if an iron hand had grabbed his shoulder, and his body suddenly felt light, and he appeared in the air.
When his gaze shifted, he saw that it was Yang Jiuli who had made the move.
Those in the hall saw Yang Jiuli grab Yang Mu's shoulder, and leap behind the coffin like a roc spreading its wings.
boom!
A crisp sound rang out as Yang Jiuli lifted Yang Mu to the ground.
However, after Yang Lin's palm strike missed, the palm print formed by the condensed evil energy struck the incense burner in front of the coffin.
The incense burner was smashed, and dust rose everywhere.
Li Molan and Yang Pao darted to the side, their faces full of vigilance.
Yang Qin immediately waved his hand and gave the order, and the six Shadow Guards holding crossbows activated the mechanisms.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Six crossbow bolts, each two inches thick, were fired at Yang Lin.
Yang Lin took a step forward, his body radiating a murderous aura, and struck forward with his palm.
A purplish-black aura burst forth from his palm, and the aura surged forth like a venomous snake towards the arrows.
Bang, bang!
The six arrows were immediately shattered.
A powerful aura of malevolence surged towards the Shadow Guards.
The twelve Shadow Guards immediately stacked their shields together to form a shield wall, blocking the evil energy.
boom!
The malevolent energy surged forth, and all twelve Shadow Guards wielding shields were blasted away by the overwhelming and powerful aura.
The six Shadow Guards wielding crossbows were also knocked back.
dong dong!
Yang Qin was so shocked that he staggered backward.
After defeating these people, Yang Lin smiled and looked at Yang Jiuli behind the coffin with great interest.
"Such vigilance? I underestimated you!" Yang Lin grinned, a ferocious smile on his face, looking at Yang Jiuli as if he were looking at prey.
Yang Lin was surprised that Yang Jiuli had rescued Yang Mu at a critical moment.
However, that was all. He didn't panic at all; he remained calm and composed, as if he had the whole situation under control.
"Fourth brother, what are you doing!" Yang Mu shouted angrily.
"Haha, Second Brother, don't you understand yet?" Yang Lin laughed menacingly.
"The aura of poison and evil... he is a grandmaster who attacked and killed the manor lord!" Yang Qin, the commander of the Shadow Guard, felt a chill run down his spine.
He flashed to Yang Jiuli's side and took out his shield to protect Yang Mu and Yang Jiuli.
Yang Lin's Poisonous Palm strike unleashed a chilling aura, revealing his mastery of the martial arts.
The guests in the mourning hall stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.
"What! A Grandmaster? Yang Lin is actually a Grandmaster! Wasn't he a cripple with both legs disabled?" Jiang Wei exclaimed in surprise.
His heart was pounding.
I thought that Master Yang's "catching a turtle in a jar" was a reference to dealing with Mingjian Villa and Tangjiabao.
But now it seems that things are far from that simple.
A sense of unease welled up in Jiang Wei's heart.
"This Master Yang is really good at hiding his true abilities!" Jiang Sheng sighed.
"Fourth Master is a traitor?" Li Molan, who was standing next to him, stared at Yang Lin with wide eyes after regaining her balance. Her face was full of shock.
In Li Molan's memory, this Fourth Master was frail and seemed like he could be blown away by a gust of wind.
But right now, he has repelled more than a dozen Shadow Guards with a single palm strike.
With such strength, how many people in the world can match it?
With this thought in mind, Li Molan couldn't help but swallow hard, glancing at Yang Lin before looking at Yang Jiuli behind the coffin.
But Yang Jiuli remained calm.
"It seems the young master had anticipated this all along?" Li Molan suddenly realized, recalling what the young master had said yesterday.
"But there are no more Grandmasters in the manor. How will the young master deal with Fourth Master?" Li Molan wondered to herself.
"The Poisonous Palm technique—it was he who attacked and killed Uncle Yang!" In the mourning hall, Tang Yifan's gaze was sharp as he stared at Yang Lin in front of the coffin.
He wanted nothing more than to tear Yang Lin to pieces.
It was this person who caused everyone to believe that it was he, Tangjiabao, who attacked and killed Master Yang, making them bear a great deal of blame!
Seeing the strength Yang Lin had just displayed, Tang Yifan didn't dare to make a move.
Tang Xiao strode forward, shielding Tang Yifan behind him.
The other two Tang family guards also stood guard on either side of Tang Yifan, their faces full of vigilance.
"So it was him." Qin Zhixue murmured, looking at Yang Lin with surprise in her eyes, clearly not expecting this outcome.
"It seems that Ninth Young Master was already on guard?" Qin Zhixue wondered to herself as she looked at Yang Jiuli.
Yang Lin's attack just now caught everyone off guard, and no one could save Yang Mu.
But Yang Jiuli did it.
Clearly, he had anticipated this and had been on guard against Yang Lin, which allowed him to rescue people with lightning speed.
As Qin Zhixue looked at Yang Jiuli, a hint of curiosity appeared in her beautiful eyes.
The man before her seemed to be even more intelligent than she had imagined.
Qin Jianhe and two other guards from Mingjian Villa protected Qin Zhixue.
"Fourth brother, was it you who attacked and killed our eldest brother?" Yang Mu stared at Yang Lin through gritted teeth in front of the coffin, his eyes bloodshot and bloodshot.
Yang Lin grinned maliciously and said slowly, "That's right, I've wanted to make a move against him for a long time, but Yang Xuan is too strong. He's already at the late stage of Grandmaster level. I can only wait until he's injured before I dare to make a move. Only in this way can I be absolutely sure of success! Haha..."
"Did Yang Xu send you a message that my brother was injured in the 'Black Abyss'?" Yang Mu frowned and looked at the Shadow Guard at the door.
"Not bad!" Yang Lin said.
"Yang Xu, it's you! I'll tear you to pieces!" Yang Qin, standing to the side, strode forward, his killing intent soaring, glaring angrily at Yang Xu.
He suspected that some of the Shadow Guards had defected, but he did not suspect Yang Xu.
Because Yang Xu was the son of one of his cousins.
That cousin was also a Shadow Guard, and he died during a trip to the "Black Abyss".
The brothers were extremely loyal to the family.
Unexpectedly, this nephew committed such a heinous act.
He gripped his halberd, ready to strike.
"Commander, protecting the young master is the most important thing!" A shadow guard grabbed Yang Qin's sleeve and said hurriedly.
Yang Lin's attack just now left these Shadow Guards with lingering fear.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qin's anger subsided slightly, and he looked at Yang Lin with a solemn expression.
With a grandmaster in front of him, he dared not be careless in the slightest. He gripped the battle halberd tightly in his hand, ready to strike at any moment.
The shield in his left hand was also held in front of him.
Yang Xu, standing at the door, wore a fanged mask and had a chilling gaze, but he did not speak.
"So it was him!" Yang Jiuli glanced at Yang Xu, and the doubts in his heart were finally completely dispelled, making him appear very calm.
"Why! Why did you harm my elder brother? Could it be... that you want to take control of Snowdrift Manor?" Yang Mu looked at Yang Lin, not understanding why the latter would do such a thing. But thinking about what was going on, he felt a chill and involuntarily protected Yang Jiuli in front of him.
"Hmph, Snowdrift Manor? I want the entire martial world! Haha!" Yang Lin snorted coldly, then grinned menacingly.
That laughter sent chills down your spine.
