Chapter 59: An Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend
Hearing Gu Yu mention the oath of allegiance, Lin Qianshan’s eyes narrowed, and his heart began to ponder whether Gu Yu was telling the truth.
Although Lin Qianshan felt that even if Gu Yu was inside, he wouldn’t be able to find any trace of the Dragon Gu.
However, Gu Yu’s luck might be very good.
If Gu Yu really managed to capture the Dragon Gu, Lin Qianshan felt that his efforts over the past few decades would have been wasted!
His pursuit of the path to immortality would also end here…
In any case, Lin Qianshan would not accept such a result.
But, if he killed all these men in black, how could he guarantee that Gu Yu would truly keep his promise to open the door, rather than using them as bait to trick him!
Although these men in black deserved to die, if Gu Yu deceived him, then the assistance for opening the door would be gone.
“Lin Qianshan, since I can guess that you are Zhou Yi’s master, it means I know that you and these men in black are not from the same group. That’s why I am speaking with such sincerity! Don’t worry that this is a trap. As long as you kill all those men in black, I will let you in.”
While Lin Qianshan was hesitating in his heart, Gu Yu’s voice sounded from behind the bronze door again.
The men in black standing beside the bronze door were so angry that veins were bulging on their foreheads, wishing they could rush over and cut off Gu Yu’s head with a sword.
What Gu Yu said was completely aimed at sowing discord, wanting to use Lin Qianshan’s hand to kill people.
Although it could be considered an open scheme, seeing Lin Qianshan in deep thought, it was evident that he was considering Gu Yu’s offer.
This immediately made everyone’s hearts become uneasy, causing them to curse uncontrollably.
“Gu Yu, you coward, do you dare to come out and fight!”
“You hiding under a woman’s skirt, you’re a disgrace to all men, why don’t you just die!”
“Quickly surrender, or our master will flatten Linfeng Kingdom, slaughter all your relatives and friends, and hang their heads on the city gate!”
“If you have the guts, then come out!”
While the men in black were shouting insults, Lin Qianshan made no move to stop them.
He also wanted to see if Gu Yu would be provoked into coming out.
According to the information, Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were not very old, and were in the age of competitiveness. They would surely be very indignant when facing such insults.
If Gu Yu really opened the bronze door, he would immediately flash inside and use his Gu worms to kill both Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao.
This way, he could confidently search for the Dragon Gu.
Although Gu Yu’s proposal seemed good, Lin Qianshan was not sure if Gu Yu was telling the truth, and it carried a certain risk for him.
Therefore, he had to nip the danger in the bud.
As long as Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao were dead, he wouldn’t have to worry about danger from behind.
Of course, Gu Mengyao’s strength was considerable, and it might not be easy to deal with her.
“Hmph, curse all you want, as this is the last time you can still breathe. Lin Qianshan, are you still hoping that these people will push open the bronze door?”
“Who knows if you’re trying to fool me.”
“Hey, hey, you’re narrowing your path! Why are you so paranoid! Look how long these men in black have been pushing the door, have you seen any movement in the bronze door? If you can find even an inch, I’ll commit suicide right here.”
“…”
However, what Gu Yu said later clearly made Lin Qianshan waver in his thoughts.
Because, Gu Yu was telling the truth!
Although there were quite a few men in black pushing the bronze door, there was no change at all, and the bronze door had not moved even an inch.
This made Lin Qianshan’s expression turn grim. He turned to look at the men in black around him, and a decision gradually formed in his mind.
The Dragon Gu, he had to obtain it!
“Alright, I promise you.”
“Heh heh, that’s more like it! An enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
As Lin Qianshan spoke, the men in black who were pushing the door immediately retreated several steps quickly, wanting to distance themselves from Lin Qianshan and then leave the cave.
Now that the most powerful Commander Xiao was dead, dealing with Lin Qianshan was simply an impossible task.
With the idea of mutual destruction, it was better to leave the cave as soon as possible and pass on this news.
If their master found out, he would definitelydispatch experts to the Southern Border to deal with this arrogant Lin Qianshan.
As most of them had this thought, they immediately fled back the way they came.
However, Lin Qianshan made no move, standing obediently in place, watching the men in black who wanted to pounce and kill him.
After a few glances at each other, Lin Qianshan suddenly smiled.
As the smile appeared on his face, the path back into the cave let out dull sounds, accompanied by miserable human screams, which immediately made the men in black’s hearts sink.
Lin Qianshan, is he really that terrifying?
“Lin Qianshan, are you really going to help Gu Yu against us? Don’t you know how powerful our master is? He will kill you!”
“Hmph, do you think I’m afraid of being threatened! Even if your master is the Southern Border Insect King, I’m not afraid.”
When Lin Qianshan heard the threat from the men in black, the smile at the corner of his mouth remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of disdain, clearly showing no fear of the master the men in black mentioned.
Thanks to the vastness of the hundred thousand mountains in the Southern Border, many criminals in the Southern Border directly hid in the mountains, ensuring that their enemies could not find them.
Therefore, even if the master of the men in black could cover the sky with one hand, he would not be able to find him in the hundred thousand mountains.
After obtaining the Dragon Gu, Lin Qianshan planned to hide in the hundred thousand mountains to study how the Dragon Gu could increase lifespan and grant immortality… Lin Qianshan had stayed in the Southern Border for so many years precisely because he wanted to obtain the secret of immortality.
The reason he knew such a secret was due to another fortuitous encounter, which not only kept Lin Qianshan’s appearance young but also revealed that the Dragon Gu held the secret to immortality.
Although there were no successful cases, there were rumors that a member of the royal family obtained the Dragon Gu and lived to be over three hundred years old…
Facing the temptation of immortality, Lin Qianshan naturally could not resist.
Although his current appearance was very young, his real age was 55. If he did not obtain the Dragon Gu soon, he would not have many years left to live.
Gu masters in the Southern Border did not live very long.
An old man like Lin Qianshan, who was over fifty, was already considered to have a long lifespan.
Thinking that he absolutely did not want to die, Lin Qianshan no longer hesitated and immediately summoned his cultivated top-grade Gu worms, which crawled out from various dark corners of the cave.
In the terrified expressions of the men in black, numerous Gu worms pounced on them.
