Looking at the shopkeeper's advancing steps, Lin Qing slightly pondered for a moment before closely following him.

After a short while, Lin Qing followed the shopkeeper into an elegant room. There were three people in the room, and they all exuded a heavy aura. It seemed that they weren't ordinary people.

With a cold heart, Lin Qing also pressed down on the sword hilt at her waist before she followed.

The person sitting at the head of the table was a young scholar with a folding fan in his hand. The fan was inscribed with a beautiful map of the world, and with a glance, one could see that it was an extraordinary object. This young scholar was the person behind the inn, and his name was Chen Ming, and he was originally a disciple of one of the most powerful martial institutions in the Qingcheng Mountains.

As for the purpose of setting up this inn, no one knew.

This person had a thick complexion and was somewhat similar to the fat man that Lin Qing had killed in the inn. If he was not wrong, this person was probably related to the fat man, and this person was also not a kind person. He was the leader of the bandits in the Evil Region, and his name was Evil Beings.

As for the last person, although he was completely covered in black, no one knew where he came from. However, from Chen Ming and the others, they could tell that he was not a simple person.

The innkeeper led Lin Qing in, then he respectfully clasped his fists towards Chen Ming who sat at the head seat and said, "Master, Sir Lin has already invited us over."

Chen Ming nodded his head and said, "Not bad." He waved his hand again, indicating that he could continue.

The manager didn't dare to be slow, and he respectfully bowed to them before quickly leaving.

After Lin Qing entered the room, her gaze was focused on the three of them, as though she was trying to discern something.

Since Lin Qing was like this, the three of them were no exception.

To be able to kill in public, he would not dare to do so unless he had some ability.

"You are the one who committed the murder," Chen Ming, who sat at the head seat, said with a stern tone.

Lin Qing remained unmoved. He glanced at Chen Ming and indifferently replied, "So what if I am, so what if I am not?"

When he saw Lin Qing's expression, Chen Ming secretly praised her. Even though she was in danger, she was still calm. She was a young hero, and she also cherished her talent. If she could tame him, it would be of great help to his influence.

"A murderer can always be killed. I'm sure Sir Lin understands this logic." Chen Ming's tone was flat, but the words he spoke were chilling.

"Oh, so you're saying that you want to fight for him. It's just that I don't know who you are. If you want to interfere, do you know the price?" Lin Qing's eyes narrowed, and her grip on the treasured sword tightened.

"I am not talented, my name is Chen Ming, I am rather confident in myself. As for my intervention, Sir Lin was the one who provoked me first, after all, this is my inn, Sir Lin has caused trouble here, I can't possibly let me clean your ass, can I?" Chen Ming grunted.

"I am indeed in the wrong regarding this matter. However, Fellow Chen's inn almost caused me to fall into a dangerous situation. In order to protect myself, I am afraid that this counterattack is not entirely my fault." Lin Qing coldly said.

"If you want to punish me, then so be it. Why take my life?" To the side, Zhou Wei slammed the table as he coldly said that. Lin Qing could see the ice-cold killing intent in his eyes.

"And who are you? What does this have to do with you?" Lin Qing casually replied.

"The person you killed is my younger brother. Say, do you think he has anything to do with you?" General Evil coldly said. His ice-cold killing intent caused even Lin Qing's heart to freeze.

"Hmph hmph, but he brought it upon himself. I have already given him many opportunities, but if he repeatedly provokes me, don't blame me for being merciless!" Lin Qing coldly said.

However, no matter what, taking the life of my younger brother, isn't his methods a little too intense? "Great evil had also faintly sensed the aura from Lin Qing's body, and had even heard about the scene of Lin Qing attacking from the mouths of the people in the inn. He knew that Lin Qing's strength was not weak, thus, he felt fear in his heart.

"My methods are not that intense, I only know that the number of innocent people who have died in the hands of Fellow Taoist Zhou is at least ten. Today, I have killed one person because he is Fellow Taoist Zhou's younger brother. If it were not for you being his younger brother, Fellow Taoist Zhou, I'm afraid that you would have praised him." Lin Qing sneered.

"A glib tongue, truly hateful. Don't you think that I will let you off because of your words?" Evil One slammed the table with a gloomy face.

"Haha, I never thought that Fellow Zhou would be so generous, but before you make your move, please consider the cost. If you must know that I am not someone to be trifled with, then my sword is not a decorative item, but a sword to kill. I do not lack a sword for my soul." Lin Qing pressed down on the hilt of her sword and said coldly.

Hearing this, Zhou's disgust turned into anger. He wanted to use his blade to let Lin Qing know the methods of the leader of the bandits of Evil Region Ridge.

Chen Ming, who was sitting at the head of the group, also felt the evil and wicked actions. He couldn't help but frown and hurriedly pressed down on the evil and creased shoulders, making him unable to move.

"Summoning the two of you here today isn't for the sake of attacking, but to settle grudges. If I were to truly attack, I wouldn't be sitting here right now!" Chen Ming said in a deep voice.

She glared hatefully at Lin Qing, but did not move. Just a pair of sinister eyes allowed Lin Qing to know that the grudge between the two of them was not that simple, and ended just like that.

"Sir Lin, regardless of the reason, and regardless of Fellow Gu's younger brother's disrespectful actions, it would be too heavy if Sir Lin were to take action and end his life, right?" Chen Ming said coldly.

Lin Qing was silent for a moment, before she nodded her head and said: "Although that person is hateful, he is not dead. My attack was indeed a little too heavy, it is just that I have already drawn my sword. If you want to take revenge, feel free to come!"

"Fellow Taoist Lin, you must be joking. If you were to really make a move, I wouldn't have called Sir Lin over. I've summoned Sir Lin to settle this issue peacefully. After all, I don't wish to cause any trouble." Chen Ming smiled and said in a gentle tone.

"Then what do you want?" Lin Qing was also unwilling to provoke any more trouble in this matter.

"He has already been killed and the matter has already been done, there is no longer any possibility of redemption. However, if Sir Lin is willing to help the next time, Chen Ming promises that in the future, Fellow Zhou will not provoke Sir Lin. Sir Lin, what do you think?" Chen Ming thought for a moment before replying.
