263: Chapter 263 was just part of the plan.

A Physical Body,

A body temperature,

And even a pulse?

How is this possible?

Lin Yu's eyes showed shock. Even if a ghostly creature had occupied a nest and possessed a living person's body,

An ordinary ghostly creature would instantly extinguish that person's life force.

Not to mention an existence with terrifying Ghostly Qi like Xiao Yue.

Let alone occupying an ordinary person's Physical Body; with Xiao Yue's vast Ghostly Qi, even Lin Yu himself didn't think he could withstand it!

Lin Yu truly couldn't figure out why, so he narrowed his eyes, stared in Jiang Ling's direction, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Are you in league with Qin Ge?"

"The Celestial Master Sect was wiped out long ago with not a single survivor. How could you be the sole successor of the Celestial Master Sect?"

"You were hired by Qin Ge to act in this play, weren't you?"

"Are you saying I'm impersonating someone from the Celestial Master Sect?" Jiang Ling laughed out of extreme anger.

She hadn't even held Lin Yu accountable for his crimes yet, and who would have thought this guy would dare to frame her?

"The aura emanating from your body is formed by the Golden Light Incantation!" Jiang Ling stared at Lin Yu gloomily and said coldly, "The Golden Light Incantation is a secret of my Celestial Master Sect that is never passed to outsiders!"

"That old thing Mysterious Mechanism Master was banned from using the Golden Light Incantation long ago after being expelled from the Celestial Master Sect!"

"As a Disciple of the Xuanji Sect, where did you learn the Golden Light Incantation, and who gave you permission to use it!?"

Lin Yu looked at Qin Ge with a venomous gaze and said coldly, "You really have some tricks up your sleeve!"

"Hiring such an actress and then telling her some information about the Celestial Master Sect just to make me fall into a self-justification trap?"

"I'm curious why this Jiang Ling arrived so quickly. Could it be that you already started designing this ambush the moment I appeared at the Cui Family home?"

Even Qin Ge couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle upon hearing this, "Stop talking nonsense!"

How could he have only started designing the ambush when Lin Yu arrived at the Cui Family?

He had already begun setting the board back when Lin Yu was still at the Xuanji Sect, alright?

Besides, what did he mean by a hired actress?

Jiang Ling was the genuine, sole direct descendant of the current Celestial Master Sect.

She carried countless treasures of the Celestial Master Sect in her robes.

She was the legitimate, sole heir of the Celestial Master Sect!

Instead, it was Lin Yu, this 'Li Gui' imposter, who had encountered the genuine sole successor of the Celestial Master Sect and was still jumping around. This truly surprised Qin Ge, yet it also felt reasonable.

As expected of a double-standard Child of Destiny!

Whether he was right or wrong, he just felt it was impossible for him to be in error, didn't he?

"You say I'm a fake!"

"Fine!"

"Then look at what this object is!"

Jiang Ling raised her hand and patted her high chest, and in the blink of an eye, she took out an ancient greatsword with Qi circulating through it; it was none other than the celestial master sword.

Lin Yu's eyes showed surprise, "This is the celestial master sword!?"

Jiang Ling's brows furrowed sharply, "Seeing this sword is like seeing the Celestial Revered Master!"

"Even that old thing Mysterious Mechanism Master would have to bow in submission upon seeing the celestial master sword, yet you, a mere Disciple of Mysterious Mechanism Master, actually dare to be disrespectful!?"

Whoosh—

Without another word, Jiang Ling held the sword and slashed toward Lin Yu from a distance, a brilliant ribbon of light shooting out.

Having heard the words of the Sakura One-Eyed Female Ghost earlier, she had suspected that Mysterious Mechanism Master was the traitor—the traitor who caused the destruction of the Celestial Master Sect!

However, she had never had substantial evidence.

Even if she returned to the Bright Moon Sect and wanted to ask her Revered Master to take action, she couldn't do so based on empty words alone.

But today, seeing Lin Yu's reaction, she became increasingly certain of the fact that Mysterious Mechanism Master was a traitor!

If Mysterious Mechanism Master didn't have malicious intentions, how would he dare pass the Golden Light Incantation to Lin Yu?

If Mysterious Mechanism Master didn't harbor disrespect, how would Lin Yu dare to be so arrogant in front of the celestial master sword!?

She couldn't kill Mysterious Mechanism Master yet.

But she would first kill Lin Yu, the Disciple of Mysterious Mechanism Master, to sacrifice to the spirits of the many members of the Celestial Master Sect in heaven!

Whoosh—

The sword light was brilliant. With one slash, the courtyard wall of the villa collapsed at the waist!

Lin Yu jumped wretchedly onto the villa area driveway outside the courtyard, gritting his teeth and glaring at Jiang Ling, "You think I can't kill you!?"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Jiang Ling did not speak, persistently slashing at Lin Yu with her sword.

Cough, cough...

Lin Yu, who wanted to fight back, coughed violently in irritation. The coughed-up blood was mixed with fragments of internal organs.

He gritted his teeth and glared fiercely in Qin Ge's direction.

If not for being heavily injured, even if Jiang Ling held the celestial master sword, she would be no match for him!

But now his ribs were all broken, and he had a fractured arm.

He might not even be able to beat Jiang Ling, let alone when she was holding a powerful weapon like the celestial master sword.

He could only grit his teeth and flee in defeat.

"Ding! The Child of Destiny Lin Yu has developed feelings of hatred toward the Host. Rewarding the Host with +10,000 villain points!"

"Ding! The Child of Destiny Lin Yu has developed killing intent toward the Host. Rewarding the Host with +20,000 villain points!"

Xu Shiyin watched Jiang Ling and Lin Yu leave one after the other in a chase and wondered, "Why did Jiang Ling and Lin Yu start fighting?"

"Jiang Ling is the successor of the Celestial Master Sect, that's for certain, and with Lin Yu's skills, he should indeed be a Disciple of that Xuanji Sect!"

"Grandfather said that the Xuanji Sect and the Celestial Master Sect come from the same origin and are closely linked. If we couldn't find the Celestial Master Sect successor Jiang Ling, we could turn to the Xuanji Sect for help."

"But these two closely linked Sects, both with their sole successors, why are they in a life-and-death struggle?"

Xu Shiyin was extremely puzzled.

After all, in the information she had, the Celestial Master Sect and the Xuanji Sect were like brother Sects, connected by blood and bone.

How could they look like they wanted to kill each other the moment they met?

Tsk!

Qin Ge watched the distant Jiang Ling and Lin Yu and couldn't help but click his tongue.

According to the original plot development, Lin Yu should have first had a conflict with Jiang Ling, making her feel dissatisfied due to the Golden Light Incantation matter.

Then Lin Yu would exhaust everything to awaken the Moon Goddess, repel the One-Eyed Female Ghost, and subsequently escape the Ghost Domain together with Jiang Ling.

Because of this, Jiang Ling would feel grateful and no longer make things difficult for him.

She would even form a ghost-slaying team with Lin Yu.

But the key was that the plot had changed now.

Not only did Lin Yu not save Jiang Ling, but he also caused the fact that Mysterious Mechanism Master was a traitor to be exposed early.

As the sole successor of the Celestial Master Sect, knowing that Lin Yu was the close Disciple of the traitor Mysterious Mechanism Master,

And even being splashed with dirty water by Lin Yu, how could Jiang Ling possibly give Lin Yu a good Face?

Chasing Lin Yu with the celestial master sword was already giving Lin Yu Face!

Of course, such a situation was all within Qin Ge's expectations.

With the detailed information provided by the information posts and spies reporting at any time,

With a little bit of brainpower, he could turn Lin Yu, this Child of Destiny, into a rat crossing the street.

Even Lin Yu being heavily injured was part of Qin Ge's plan.

Even if Lin Yu hadn't attacked Xiao Yue, he would have made him heavily injured!

Of course, even a heavily injured Lin Yu was still a Child of Destiny and far from someone Jiang Ling alone could kill.

What he had to do was make Jiang Ling and Lin Yu stand completely on opposite sides.

Until Jiang Ling called for reinforcements.

At that time, the Seven Martial Sisters would join forces to surround and kill Lin Yu!

That would be the true highlight.

Even Qin Ge was somewhat curious: was Lin Yu's Luck more robust, or was the combined Luck of the Seven Martial Sisters more flourishing?
