But...
Why would Ning Beichen comply with his wishes?
Huang Yuzhong's lips moved, wanting to say something, but not knowing how.
However, Yin Xing Jue was too important to him, and he didn't want to give up like this, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he didn't want to miss it.
After some thought, he said, "Do you know about the Xingyin Sect?"
"Never heard of it. What kind of place is that?"
Liu Yilin shook her head. She had never heard of a Xingyin Sect.
However, Ning Beichen's eyelids twitched. He certainly knew about the Xingyin Sect. The cultivation method he taught Liu Yilin was derived from the core techniques of the Xingyin Sect.
But the Xingyin Sect had disappeared for a hundred years. Hearing Huang Yuzhong suddenly mention the Xingyin Sect made Ning Beichen somewhat surprised, and he speculated in his heart.
"Could it be that this Huang Yuzhong is related to the Xingyin Sect that disappeared a hundred years ago? Otherwise, why would he be testing us?"
The more Ning Beichen thought about it, the more he felt this was possible.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why Huang Yuzhong also brought people there that night. He must have followed the starlight.
After all, the Xingyin Sect had only disappeared, not been annihilated.
Huang Yuzhong did not notice Ning Beichen's change. Hearing Liu Yilin say she had not heard of the Xingyin Sect, he became a little anxious and asked again.
"Then have you heard of Yin Xing Jue?"
Liu Yilin still shook her head. Ning Beichen had only taught her a cultivation method, but he had never told her its name.
Ning Beichen's heart sank. By now, he could basically confirm that Huang Yuzhong was related to the Xingyin Sect.
However, until he understood Huang Yuzhong's purpose, Ning Beichen would not say anything about the Xingyin Sect or Yin Xing Jue.
"Boss Huang, I haven't heard of anything you mentioned. If you have nothing else, we will take our leave."
Liu Yilin, on Ning Beichen's instruction, stood up again and said.
"Miss Liu, I am truly sorry to have disturbed you."
Huang Yuzhong said, somewhat dejected, not having received the answer he wanted.
Liu Yilin did not linger and left with Ning Beichen, nor did she intend to stay for dinner.
Outside, Liu Yilin asked in a low voice.
"Beichen, is that Yin Xing Jue he mentioned what you taught me to cultivate?"
Although Liu Yilin didn't understand these things, Ning Beichen had told her that special starlight would appear in the sky if she cultivated it.
Ning Beichen nodded and said to her, "That's right. What you are cultivating is precisely Yin Xing Jue, the core technique of the Xingyin Sect. However, the Xingyin Sect has been gone for a hundred years. This Huang Yuzhong's target is clearly aimed at Yin Xing Jue. Until we figure out his purpose, you should temporarily stop cultivating."
Liu Yilin nodded and replied in a small voice.
"I understand. Beichen, will there be trouble if I cultivate this Yin what Jue?"
"It's Yin Xing Jue. Don't worry, there won't be any trouble. That Huang Yuzhong might be related to the Xingyin Sect, which is why he is testing us."
"Don't worry, I will find an opportunity to figure out his purpose."
Ning Beichen said to Liu Yilin after some thought.
With Ning Beichen by her side, Liu Yilin had nothing to worry about. However, her stomach rumbled, clearly indicating she was hungry.
"Let's go, Yilin, I'll take you to get something to eat."
After Ning Beichen left, Huang Yuzhong tapped the table. He saw the side door open, and a white-haired old man walked out from inside.
"Old Zheng, what do you think?"
While they were talking, the old man had been hiding behind the door observing Liu Yilin and Ning Beichen.
"I can't tell. That girl seems unaware of these things, but her bodyguard's answers are watertight."
The old man replied.
"Old Zheng, do you think they know Yin Xing Jue?"
Huang Yuzhong was somewhat unwilling, feeling that the threads of fate were within reach.
"It's hard to say. That woman doesn't have any cultivation on her, and I can't figure out her bodyguard. However, he gives me a very dangerous feeling."
Old Zheng said.
"Regardless, they are my only hope. Old Zheng, please work hard during this time and help me monitor them."
Huang Yuzhong said.
"Yes, Sect Master."
Old Zheng bowed with clasped hands.
Ning Beichen and Liu Yilin, after leaving, were unaware of this. They had a meal outside and returned home. Liu Yilin, following Ning Beichen's instructions, did not cultivate Yin Xing Jue.
Life returned to normal, but Ning Beichen did not believe that Huang Yuzhong would give up so easily.
Indeed, for the next few days, Ning Beichen noticed that every night, it seemed someone was secretly monitoring them from outside.
Ning Beichen guessed it was Huang Yuzhong's people, so he ignored them, thinking that if they monitored for a few days and found nothing, they would give up.
However, Ning Beichen did not expect that Huang Yuzhong would be so audacious as to set his sights on him.
One night, after Ning Beichen returned from attending to some matters, he found an old man blocking his way.
And this old man attacked him directly without saying a word.
Ning Beichen snorted coldly and sent the old man flying with one move.
The person who attacked Ning Beichen was Old Zheng. He had been monitoring for days without discovering anything, so he couldn't help but make a move to test Ning Beichen.
According to his calculations, this Ning Beichen was so young, no matter how powerful he was, how powerful could he be? As long as he didn't use firearms up close, Old Zheng didn't take Ning Beichen seriously at all.
But he was defeated in just one move.
Blood continuously flowed from his mouth and nostrils.
Old Zheng dared not move. A deadly aura of danger enveloped his body. If he dared to move even slightly, he would face a storm of attacks.
Ning Beichen stepped on his chest, which squeezed the blood out of Old Zheng's throat, making him feel less uncomfortable.
"Speak, who sent you?"
Ning Beichen asked him.
Old Zheng, of course, dared not betray Huang Yuzhong and insisted that it was his own doing.
The reason he gave was that he saw Ning Beichen alone and wanted to rob him of his belongings.
Ning Beichen looked at him coldly. He exerted force with his foot, and Old Zheng let out a scream. Blood seeped from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
Ning Beichen's kick was no less than Mount Tai pressing down.
"Huang Yuzhong has such little courage that he doesn't even dare to admit it?"
Ning Beichen said coldly.
When Old Zheng heard Ning Beichen mention Huang Yuzhong's name, his eyes immediately became terrified.
Because Ning Beichen had never met him, and he didn't know how Ning Beichen had found out he was Huang Yuzhong's subordinate.
"I don't know any Huang Yuzhong."
Old Zheng planned to take all the blame.
However, he immediately realized that this young man was definitely not as simple as he had imagined.
