The face of the innkeeper turned even paler as he felt the coldness in Lin Qing's eyes. He couldn't help but take a step back.

Without waiting for Lin Qing to make her next move, Chen He instead sneered and said, "Sir Lin, are we still searching here?"

Lin Qing was speechless. She cupped her fist and said, "Sorry for disturbing you." She then glanced at the pale-faced innkeeper and coldly said, "Let's go. We'll see how you explain after we return."

With that, he walked out without even turning his head.

Looking at the departing back of Lin Qing, the corners of Chen He's lips curled up into a cold sneer.

The innkeeper's face was deathly pale. He glanced at Chen He, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly, but he couldn't say anything.

"Shopkeeper, you're not being honest in this matter. If it wasn't for Chen Ming, don't even think of leaving my residence today," Chen He said coldly with an indescribable killing intent in his voice.

The innkeeper bitterly smiled. As he looked at Chen He, whose eyes were suffused with killing intent, he faintly said, "I'm afraid Chen Ming is no longer in this world."

"What? What did you say?" Chen He's expression also changed as he hurriedly asked.

Glancing deeply at Chen He, he shook his head and mumbled, "Then Sir Lin, you gave me such an unscrupulous order today. Could Sir Chen not guess anything at all?"

"Are you saying that Chen Ming died in the hands of that person just now?" Chen He's eyes contained an unspeakable terror as he asked. The hand that was holding onto the sword actually couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"I'm afraid so." The innkeeper walked out with a mouth full of bitterness, and at that time, the innkeeper accepted his fate. Whether he lived or died, it all depended on the thoughts of others, and although that feeling was not pleasant, he could only accept it. Under the rules of the world, he was actually powerless to resist, and could only smile as he faced it.

Rather than die with tears in his eyes, why not laugh to death?

There was no wind, and the environment was warm. As for Chen He, he silently stood in the secret chamber, watching Lin Qing and the innkeeper leave one after the other. For some reason, he felt a chill in his heart.

"How could that woman dare to say such big words? Could it be because of that person? Could it be that this person is hiding a powerful background? Could it be that this person is also someone from the Celestial Sect of Wonders?" Chen He muttered to himself.

If one wanted to achieve greater things in life, they would have to take greater risks. For the immortal gate, this little bit of risk was nothing.

Thinking of what Lin Susu said and the Celestial Door, Chen He was already fearless. The only pity was that the woman's mouth was too tight, otherwise, hehe …

Chen He didn't know how to react. Thinking about Lin Susu's beauty, once she found out the secret of the Celestial Gate, she would have a taste of this woman's body. However, for the sake of the Celestial Gate, she could only endure it for now.

The soft moonlight scattered across the moonlight, shining onto Lin Qing's tightly knitted eyebrows. As she turned her head, she quietly looked at this dilapidated courtyard. Lin Qing was speechless.

Lin Qing couldn't help but clench her fists, her nails digging into the ground as she muttered to herself, "Lin Susu, I definitely won't let anything happen to you. Don't let me find the looter, otherwise, I won't let you see me!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The sound of footsteps could be heard and it was the innkeeper who walked out of the Chen residence. He looked at Lin Qing who stood there silently and a formless atmosphere enveloped him, causing the innkeeper to involuntarily shiver.

"Sir Lin …" The innkeeper's voice trembled unknowingly.

Waving her hand, Lin Qing turned around and looked at the slightly rich shopkeeper. A deep coldness could be seen in the corners of her eyes.

"At this point, I have nothing else to say. If you don't want me to act, I will settle it myself!" Lin Qing's tone was faint, but the words she spoke were filled with a deep chill.

The feet of the innkeeper went soft and he couldn't help but fall onto the ground. At that instant, he wanted to run away. He wanted to turn around and run away, but he didn't dare.

"Give me one more chance, just one more time. I will definitely find that person!" The innkeeper hurriedly said with a pleading tone.

Lin Qing shook her head as she muttered, "It's too late. At this point, I'm afraid you won't be of any use."

"No, no, no, you can't kill me!" The innkeeper couldn't help but retreat.

"Is that so? "If you don't want me to act, then give me a reason that you still have value for. Otherwise, hehe …" Lin Qing smiled and unconsciously looked towards the night sky. There was a thorny path hidden within.

The innkeeper couldn't help but ponder. At this moment, he couldn't help but think about the people that had been staying at the inn for the past few days. The more he thought about it, the colder his heart became.

"There's nothing left to say. At this point, how many people still have their suspicions?" Lin Qing coldly said. She unknowingly pulled out her sword and lightly flicked it. A light sound burst out, causing everyone's heart to tremble.

The inn's face became even paler, hearing Lin Qing's words, the inn couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Who exactly is it, and who else would dare to loot in the inn? Who else could it be other than those few people, if not the ring, if not Chen He, then who else could it be?" "Right, if it's not them, then who else could it be?"

"Don't blame me for this, you can only blame yourself for offending someone you can't afford to offend," Lin Qing said silently. Her heart was filled with murderous intent, and even the sword in her hand turned slightly colder at this moment.

The innkeeper laid his head on the ground. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He could not help but think of Chen He's mocking gaze, and began to carefully ponder about Chen He's usual conduct and behavior.

As the sword came down, the sword light carried an enchanting but fatal brilliance.

"I got it, I got it!" The innkeeper hurriedly shouted.

As soon as the sword light stopped, it stopped between the innkeeper's eyebrows.

Lin Qing coldly looked at Chen He and said in a muffled voice, "Speak."

Seeing the sword aura within reach, and especially feeling the cold aura from the sword aura, the innkeeper could not help but shiver. Even his teeth could not help but emit creaking sounds.

Seeing the innkeeper's expression, Lin Qing gave a "hmph". The sword light was withdrawn, and the sharp sword was sheathed back into Lin Qing's scabbard.

"If you don't let me be satisfied, don't let me attack you again. If not, you will die a miserable death." Lin Qing spoke indifferently, her voice seemingly devoid of emotion, yet causing the crowd to feel even more apprehensive.

Feeling the sword light leave his forehead, the innkeeper could not help but heave a sigh of relief. At this moment, he heard Lin Qing's indifferent voice again and his heart skipped a beat.

"My life is all in the mind of an adult. At this moment, how could I dare to speak nonsense in order to survive?" The innkeeper hurriedly replied, as if responding to what Lin Qing had just said.
