Lin Yun was calm, showing no intention of escaping. He was certain Qing Zhu wouldn't let anything happen to him tonight. 'If Qing Zhu wanted me dead, they would have acted during the day. Why wait until now?'
The screams from the front courtyard dwindled. It seemed the Celestial Spirit Auction House guards were nearly all dead.
Just then, a Celestial Spirit Auction House guard covered in blood stumbled into the small courtyard. He shouted at Lin Yun, "Young Master Lin, the Taiqing Academy has broken in! Chairman Nie is dead! You have to run!"
Hearing that Chairman Nie was also dead, Lin Yun's expression flickered. 'Chairman Nie had no Cultivation. Logically, she wouldn't have gone to fight the Taiqing Academy. So who killed her?'
As Lin Yun was pondering this, Aunt Lan suddenly appeared behind the Celestial Spirit Auction House guard. With a light tap of her palm, she killed him.
