Chapter 197: Encounter in the City

Ghost Martial City was boundless and immense, where only the Ghost Martial Sect was the absolute ruler. This place was the world of the Ghost Martial Sect. On the streets, Li Lin saw disciples of the Ghost Martial Sect, not all clad in armor, walking back and forth, seemingly patrolling.

Of course, there were also other smaller forces within Ghost Martial City. However, compared to the Ghost Martial Sect, they were somewhat insignificant, only able to exist under the dominance of the Ghost Martial Sect, floating like plankton, looking up to the Ghost Martial Sect. Everything in Ghost Martial City belonged to the Ghost Martial Sect.

After arriving in this foreign world, Li Lin had never visited such a bustling place. Although Qingyun Town was lively, it was nothing compared to Ghost Martial City, not even on the same level.

Li Lin thought to himself, no wonder Uncle Jiang often said that the Li family was nothing, not amounting to anything on the entire Lingwu Continent.

After wandering through the intricate streets of the city for nearly an hour, Li Lin's interest waned, and he then looked up at a shop called Thousand Medicine Gate. This was a shop selling pills, refining materials, and medicinal herbs. Li Lin walked in to see what level the shops within the Ghost Martial Sect were.

Entering the shop, Li Lin was somewhat surprised. This shop was clearly not the largest pill shop of the Ghost Martial Sect, but inside, there were quite a few fourth-grade pills and some rare refining materials, which were not uncommon here.

"Little cousin, what do you think of this? This thousand-year cold jade stone is a great item for spirit masters like you." Next to a counter, two young men in fine clothes were surrounding a stunningly beautiful girl. Behind this beautiful girl stood a man and a woman, both middle-aged, their bodies emanating a faint but powerful aura.

At this moment, many men in the shop were stealthily glancing at the stunning girl, even the middle-aged man behind the counter was surreptitiously looking down at her.

The girl was too beautiful, with delicate features, fair skin, long black hair, and most importantly, dressed too provocatively. She wore a tight leather armor that snugly covered her chest, her long beautiful legs, round and firm buttocks, and around her waist hung two beautifully patterned short swords, half a meter each. Her beauty carried a hint of wildness, making it impossible for men to shift their gaze away, especially her fair and slender thighs, which any man would yearn to touch. This girl was Lv Xiaoling.

"Elder Wang, tell my cousin, what year was the cold jade stone I refused last time?" Lv Xiaoling spoke to the middle-aged woman behind her.

"Miss, the cold jade stone you threw away last time seemed to be five thousand years old," the middle-aged woman replied with a slight smile.

Hearing this, the young man in fine clothes who had spoken earlier suddenly looked displeased, harshly throwing a piece of white jade stone onto the counter and angrily said, "Damn cold jade stone, daring to sell one that's only a thousand years old. Next time I see this, I'll smash your shop."

"Yes, Young Master Dai," the middle-aged man behind the counter immediately turned pale with fear.

"Miss, we should go back. The sect leader is waiting for you. We can't afford to be responsible if something happens," the middle-aged man behind Lv Xiaoling said.

"Elder Liu, I said I would return after watching the Ghost Martial Sect's conference. I really don't know how you found me. If I had known, I wouldn't have come to the Ghost Martial Sect," Lv Xiaoling glared at the middle-aged man.

"Miss, it's dangerous here. We should return sooner. If you like to play, we can call some disciples to accompany you in the sect," the middle-aged woman said.

"Eh..." Lv Xiaoling huffed at the middle-aged woman, about to speak, but her gaze suddenly caught a figure in green robes.

Li Lin was examining a refining material in the shop, essential for making puppets, when he suddenly felt a gaze from afar looking towards him. Quickly looking forward, his expression changed, and he murmured, "Lv Xiaoling."

"Elder Wang, Elder Liu, catch him for me," Lv Xiaoling shouted loudly.

"Miss, catch whom?" The middle-aged man and woman were puzzled, but in an instant, both of their expressions changed. At that moment, two figures leaped in the shop, heading straight for Lv Xiaoling.

"Miss, be careful, it's an ambush," the middle-aged man and woman shouted, rushing forward, their Qi surging, clashing with the attackers.

"Little thief, don't run," Lv Xiaoling chased after Li Lin.

"It's a small world indeed," Li Lin sighed, immediately fleeing, rushing out of Thousand Medicine Gate, with Lv Xiaoling hot on his heels, making him speed up even more.

"Little thief, don't go," Lv Xiaoling shouted, desperately chasing after him, but her speed couldn't match Li Lin's.

"I'll borrow your horse," Lv Xiaoling, seeing Li Lin getting away, immediately took a horse from the entrance of a tavern and pursued him directly.

"Little cousin."

"Miss Ling..."

The two young men in fine clothes stood frozen for a moment before reacting and immediately chased after her.

"Run towards the city outskirts." Li Lin looked back and saw Lv Xiaoling still chasing him, his heart sank, and he immediately headed for the outskirts of the city, as it was difficult to hide within the city.

"Go..."

Lv Xiaoling spurred her horse on, whipping it to chase after Li Lin. Moments later, she reached the city gate and saw Li Lin had already run outside the city. Without any hesitation, she directly pursued him.

Moments later, two figures in fine clothes reached the city gate and saw Lv Xiaoling, in the distance, spurring her horse on, their expressions drastically changed. The young man who was a fifth-level martial artist immediately grabbed a young man in armor beside him and ordered, "Notify everyone to chase after him for me."

"Yes, Young Master." Everyone at the city gate immediately set off to chase, not daring to delay.

"Winged Snow Lion." As he rushed out of the city gate and saw Lv Xiaoling continuing to chase him, Li Lin quickly slapped his spatial beast bag, and a streak of white light immediately leaped out.

"Roar..."

The Winged Snow Lion appeared in mid-air, a flash of Qi under its feet, and Li Lin leaped onto its back in an instant.

"Ha ha, Lv Xiaoling, keep chasing if you can, I'll be going ahead." Li Lin smiled slightly, and the Winged Snow Lion sped forward rapidly. Its speed was something a horse could not catch up with.

"You liar, thief, you think I can't catch up with you? I won't let you go," Lv Xiaoling shouted angrily.

Riding the Winged Snow Lion and leaving Lv Xiaoling far behind, Li Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief. He then had the Winged Snow Lion land in a nearby mountain range, planning to return to Ghost Martial City after a few hours. He hadn't expected Lv Xiaoling to also be in the Ghost Martial Sect; truly, it was a small world.

After storing the Winged Snow Lion, Li Lin surveyed the surrounding mountain range. This was near Ghost Martial City. He had just entered the city when he was immediately chased out, quite unlucky indeed.

Walking back slowly, Li Lin was sure Lv Xiaoling couldn't catch up with the Winged Snow Lion and wouldn't foolishly keep chasing.

Crossing a mountaintop, Ghost Martial City appeared in sight again. Li Lin smiled bitterly, about to move forward when his expression suddenly darkened, and he rapidly retreated.

"Shh..."

A huge silver figure instantly leaped out, bringing with it sharp claw marks that ferociously landed where Li Lin had just stood, instantly kicking up dust and creating a large pit in the ground.

"Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse, it's Lv Xiaoling." Li Lin's expression darkened. This was not just any beast but the Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse that had been with the Winged Snow Lion last time, now Lv Xiaoling's protective spirit beast.

"You liar, thief, give back my Winged Snow Lion," a scolding voice, unsurprisingly, came from behind Li Lin.

"How did you catch up, Lv Xiaoling?" Li Lin asked in surprise, turning around to see Lv Xiaoling in her provocative attire, practically inviting men to commit sins.

"Hmph, you think you can escape just because you have the Winged Snow Lion? I have my ways," Lv Xiaoling said proudly, then her face turned angry, "Give back my Winged Snow Lion, or else, I will not let you go, even to the ends of the earth."

"Heh heh!" Li Lin chuckled mischievously, "Miss, I'm very innocent. Even if you chase me, you might not be able to catch me."

"You..." Lv Xiaoling blushed at his response, then stomped her foot and shouted, "Little Phantom, catch him!"

"Squeak squeak..."

The Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse squeaked and immediately transformed into a streak of light, fiercely pouncing towards Li Lin. Its huge body, several meters tall, brought a howling sound as it moved through the air.

"Your Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse is not strong enough." Li Lin smiled slightly. At this moment, the Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse was still only at the second-tier mid-stage level, which he was not afraid of.

"Mountain Splitting Palm." Li Lin shouted lightly, a lightning-fast earthen yellow energy palm print swept out, enveloping the surrounding space and striking towards the huge Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

As the Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse opened its mouth, revealing two sharp fangs, a blade of wind sprayed out, seemingly unaffected by the palm print, and swept towards Li Lin.

"Spirit beasts are indeed different." Li Lin was slightly surprised. The attacks of spirit beasts are different from those of demonic beasts; they can directly affect a person's soul, similar to a spiritual practitioner.

"Disperse."

Li Lin shouted lightly, an invisible barrier formed around him, and the wind blades from the Silver Spirit Phantom Mouse fell on the barrier, instantly dispersing.
