Chapter 262: All-Out Pursuit
Lin Yun killed another expert from the Wind Forest Sect. According to eyewitness accounts, the Wind Forest Sect finally confirmed that Lin Yun was the same "Lin Shan" who had killed one of their own at Chiyang Pass.
At this moment, on Wind Forest Mountain outside Wind Forest City, lay the headquarters of the Wind Forest Sect. Countless buildings dotted the landscape from the mountainside up, crowned by an exceptionally magnificent grand hall at the very peak.
Inside the grand hall at the peak, the leaders of the Wind Forest Sect’s three major factions—the Grand Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder—sat with stern expressions. The Grand Elder had summoned them as soon as he received the news.
"He has now killed two of our sect’s Primordial Ocean Realm experts. His crimes are unforgivable. What do you two think we should do?" the Grand Elder said coldly from his seat.
Upon hearing this, a stout elder to the side responded, "He should certainly be killed. However, the ones he killed were your disciples. I’m afraid this is a matter you’ll have to handle personally, Grand Elder. I’ve been buried in trivial matters lately and simply can’t spare the manpower."
The speaker was the Second Elder of Feng Ling. After listening to the Second Elder, the Grand Elder turned his gaze to the Third Elder. The Third Elder looked quite young, no more than forty or fifty from his appearance.
However, once a cultivator reached the Primordial Ocean Realm, their age could not be judged by appearance. The Third Elder was at least over a hundred years old.
The Third Elder was a straightforward and impatient man who didn’t beat around the bush. Seeing the Grand Elder look his way, he spoke bluntly, with no regard for the Grand Elder’s dignity.
"This is your problem. It has nothing to do with me."
The Grand Elder’s expression betrayed neither joy nor sorrow at their replies. He had expected this from the start. The Second Elder was the type who never acted without personal gain, while the Third Elder was a one-track-minded brute.
