You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 301 - 61, Wind Monarch

The scent of blood gradually spread.

The mutilated corpse lay on the ground, looking extremely tragic, yet Lin Yue remained unmoved. With a casual grasp, he drew the corpse's storage jade pendant into his hand.

In the Eternal Night Illusion Realm, he had not only killed mutant beasts but also numerous martial arts experts from the Human Clan arranged by the Human Ancestor. Over the accelerated years in the Illusion Realm, he had long become numb to killing. Even if corpses piled up like mountains and blood seas surged, it wouldn't affect his heart realm.

This was also the Human Ancestor's method of tempering the Dao Heart, witnessing life and death repeatedly was inherently a form of growth.

The other two were stunned.

They could hardly believe it, with just a simple slap, the Young Master was shattered to pieces?

He randomly chose a stranger's face, and it turned out to be so formidable?

Even against a strong enemy towards the back of the Divine List, the Young Master combined with them could at least escape.

But they never expected to hit such a hard iron plate!

"You two are merely followers, right?"

Lin Yue glanced at them and said casually, "You can leave."

By being so ruthless, he intended to use this as an example.

Followers were merely tools, killing the mastermind was enough. Letting them go would help spread his reputation, preventing more troublemakers from coming to snatch treasures and wasting time.

Anyway, the current identity as Duanyue Yanluo was just a false identity.

"You... you dare to kill the Young Master?"

One tall and slender follower looked at Lin Yue in fear and panic, his body trembling slightly.

"You've got yourself into big trouble!"

The other follower said with an ugly expression, "The Young Master is the legitimate son of the Marquis of Dingyuan, you... why did you dare to kill him without question? Don't you know the rules?"

At these words, the tall and slender follower's face changed suddenly, and he immediately transmitted a divine thought, "Are you crazy? Don't provoke him further, do you want him to kill us to silence us?"

The other follower was also taken aback, his mind in chaos and out of control, blurting out without thinking.

"Oh, the Marquis of Dingyuan?"

Lin Yue remained calm, even smiling, seemingly satisfied that he had not killed the wrong person, "What a great background. Let the Marquis of Dingyuan come to find me."

He didn't bother saying more and directly flew down the mountain.

After he left, the two followers were still dazed for a while, before one of them murmured, "What do we do, the Young Master was supposed to be the next Marquis of Dingyuan, with him dead here, how do we explain to the Marquis?"

Earlier, he dared not mention this point, fearing the other party might silence them if he knew.

"It seems he is not very afraid of the Marquis." The tall and slender follower took a deep breath, "Otherwise, he would've already killed us to silence us, yet he deliberately spared our lives?"

"The Marquis must already sense that the bloodline inheritance mark within the Young Master has dissipated, probably waiting outside the Grotto Heaven right now. How can he escape?"

The other follower couldn't help but say, "Moreover, as the heir of the Marquis of Dingyuan, the Young Master had the fortune of the country protecting him, with an official position in the Punishment Department, the national fortune is even deeper. Having killed the Young Master, he is certainly burdened with sin. As long as the Marquis informs the Heavenly Punishment Department, they will also be guarding outside. Does he still think he can escape?"

"Perhaps he accumulated a lot of merit, having enough confidence to offset the sin?" The tall and slender follower furrowed his brow and then sighed, "Forget it, let's consider our own situation. The Marquis's wrath won't be mild."

He shook his head and immediately said, "Let's go, quickly spread the news of this person killing the Young Master."

"Spread it?" The other follower was taken aback, "Aren't you afraid of angering him?"

"He dared to let us go, he isn't afraid of us spreading the news."

The tall and slender follower transmitted a divine thought, "But if he regrets it, he might still kill us to silence us and keep the secret. So, it's better to spread it quickly. If everyone knows, killing us would be pointless."

...

In the lush forest, Lin Yue's figure moved like the wind.

"Randomly choosing someone to make an example of, who would've thought it was the Marquis of Dingyuan's legitimate son?"

Lin Yue revealed a slight smile, "Even the power of Tianxia Building's second layer is rare nowadays. It was clear enough that person must be the successor of the next Marquis of Dingyuan. Very good."

The Marquis of Dingyuan, long since a partisan, had its household as one of the most important forces of the Twelfth Prince's faction!

Taking this opportunity to eliminate the most excellent successor of the Marquis of Dingyuan also served as an indirection to weaken them.

He merely wanted to make an example, to establish some dominance, and with such a gain, it was an unexpected joy.

Moreover, the killer wasn't the Seventeenth Prince, but an unknown Duanyue Yanluo!

Anyway, killing someone protected by national fortune didn't bring sin.

"I wonder where Xiaoyu has gone."

While traversing the forest, Lin Yue also attempted to sense Xiaoyu's location but felt nothing throughout.

Either she was too far away, or Xiaoyu's concealing breath cultivation method had become more profound.

"Forget it, I'll get the treasure first, not much time is left."

Not wasting much time, Lin Yue noticed that within this Grotto Heaven, a beam of light appeared from time to time, signaling someone successfully obtaining treasure.

This was the relic of a Saint level expert from a previous dynasty, a missed opportunity would be hard to come by again.

In the fourth Secret Treasure Peak he selected, there was only one treasure.

It was also the treasure his grandfather desired most before he passed away.

— Dao I Obliviate.

Climbing to the peak along the Refining God Rank, after offering the test item, alongside the treasure stele's burst of a light pillar into the sky, a small bottle appeared before Lin Yue.
