Chapter 381.2: Appearance of the Murderer (1/2)

However, at this point, Lin Shuxuan also came to realize that this wasn’t just empty rumors and mumbled in shock, “My dad, how’s this possible…”

Something bad seemed to occur to him as his facial color changed drastically and he subconsciously tightened his grip on Little Gray. Little Gray cried out in alarm and struggled out of his grasp to jump back onto Tang Doudou’s shoulder, then squeaked accusedly.

“Don’t panic. I told you just a moment ago that this matter still needs to be looked into.” Tang Doudou put Little Gray on her arm and stroked him to calm him down. “They’ve already headed to Barbarian Mound Garrison. To prevent any unexpected changes, we should also hurry and head there. Once we arrive, we can discuss this at more leisure.”

It was too dangerous to stay here. If Jun Xin was here, she wouldn’t have to be in such a rush, but she had already wandered around by herself for such a long time and Jun Xin never showed up. It was possible that they had missed each other. In that case, the only thing she could do was wait at Barbarian Mound Garrison for him.

Xiao Siyuan also said, “Lady Doudou is right. We can’t stay here. It’s still alright for Ah Yi and I, but if anything happens to you, Brother Lin, Stronghold Master Lin will probably crush the entire martial arts community. I heard that he actually did do it when Uncle Xiao passed away.”

When Lin Shuxuan recalled how disciples from the four large clans had been brutally murdered lately, his handsome face turned completely pale. He glanced towards Xiao Siyuan with slight annoyance. “It sounds like you two hope for me to die!”

Xiao Siyuan choked on his words. It did seem like he had said things too directly.

“Alright, enough talking already. Get on your horses and let’s go!” Tang Doudou took the initiative to jump onto her horse. For some reason, ever since she had brought up leaving, her heart had started pounding uneasily.

Fortunately, the three of them listened to her and got onto their horses to follow after her.

When they were about halfway out of the forest, murderous intent suddenly came from ahead of them. Tang Doudou hastily pulled on the reins, then waved for the rest of them to also stop. She frown as something occurred to her. “People from the Xiao family and the Lin family came to look for you guys earlier. You guys didn’t see them?”

Xiao Siyuan frowned as well. He also found it strange. Those people had left ahead of him, but on the way here, he hadn’t seen a trace of them.

Xiao Yi and Lin Shuxuan shared a glance, then shook their heads at the same time. “No.”
