"Arrogant, am I?"
"Perhaps that’s what the Zhang Family and the Li Family thought back then!" Lin Yuan said, a cold smile curling at his lips.
To him, this team protecting Xu Fuchao was no different from the previous Li Family’s hunting squad.
The last Li Family hunting squad had three Tier Six Life Pattern Masters, and this team had four Tier Six Life Pattern Masters.
Tier Six Life Pattern Masters!
Having one more, or even ten more, ant nothing to Lin Yuan.
Now, the only thing that could threaten him was Tier Five.
Lin Yuan was fully confident, while Xu Fuchao and his team were trembling with fear.
"Lin...."
"Mr. Lin, did Yang Dingguo send you to kill ?" Xu Fuchao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, tentatively asking, "What price did Yang Dingguo offer you?"
"Whatever he offered, I can give you the sa, no, I can double it. Whatever his price, I can double it."
Xu Fuchao’s will to survive was strong, and Lin Yuan believed he was telling the truth.
The resources controlled by the financiers were certainly beyond what Yang Dingguo could offer.
Unfortunately, Yang Dingguo hadn’t given Lin Yuan any benefits!
"Old Yang freeloaded off !"
"When I get back, I must demand so compensation from him!" Lin Yuan thought to himself.
If Xu Fuchao hadn’t brought up revenge, Lin Yuan would have forgotten about it.
Damn, that Old Yang had freeloaded off him several tis now.
Lin Yuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, a cold gleam flashing in their corners, a gleam that was killing intent.
Clearly, Lin Yuan was not moved by Xu Fuchao’s words.
"What Old Yang can give, you definitely can’t!" Lin Yuan wiped his sword with his sleeve, speaking unhurriedly.
It was indeed true that Yang Dingguo hadn’t given Lin Yuan any benefits.
However, Yang Dingguo could make Peng City’s future brighter.
These were things Xu Fuchao could never achieve.
The desire to kill remained.
Even if Xu Fuchao brought a mountain of gold, it wouldn’t change Lin Yuan’s determination to kill him.
Hearing Lin Yuan’s words, along with the chilling killing intent emanating from him, Xiangyang hurriedly stepped in front of Xu Fuchao, afraid that Lin Yuan would suddenly strike and kill Xu Fuchao with a single blow.
"Lin Yuan, you better think this through!"
"Given his status, if you kill him, neither you nor Yang Dingguo will be able to walk away unscathed!" Xiangyang threatened.
While Xu Fuchao belonged to the financiers, he also held an official status openly.
If news of Lin Yuan killing him leaked, Yang Dingguo would undoubtedly be implicated.
However....
They were outside the city here.
The concentration of Deceitful Qi outside the city had reached a level where it could block satellite signals and jam all kinds of electronic devices.
This ant that as long as no one was left alive today, there wouldn’t be any evidence.
Lin Yuan pondered a mont before asking seriously, "Isn’t it possible that all of you might die today?"
"This is the border between Suzhou and Demon Dragon City. If you die here, it has nothing to do with , Old Yang, or Peng City."
Xiangyang: "?????"
"You..."
"A clever sche, Yang Dingguo has a clever sche!" Xu Fuchao’s expression gradually turned unpleasant, but he quickly added, "Even if you kill , there will be others!"
"Since they’ve set their sights on Peng City, they won’t give up easily."
It was clear that the "they" Xu Fuchao referred to were the financier forces.
In fact, given the choice, Xu Fuchao didn’t want to wade into these murky waters either.
When immortals fight, mortals suffer.
Look, wasn’t he about to suffer now?
"Then bring them on, kill them one by one!"
"I’m confident that my speed in killing can match their speed in dispatching people!"
"Peng City is not a place they can just ddle with," Lin Yuan said coldly.
At this mont, Lin Yuan’s intent to kill was resolute.
"Xiang Tian, get Mr. Xu out of here quickly!" Xiangyang, after giving this order, commanded the others, "Everyone else, engage and hold him off!"
The person called Xiang Tian was the Life Pattern Master with the Roc Tattoo Ability.
As Xiangyang’s words fell, he imdiately activated his tattoo ability, transforming into a giant roc, grabbing Xu Fuchao and heading towards Demon Dragon City.
Imdiately afterward, the remaining dozen or so Life Pattern Masters surrounded Lin Yuan tightly.
"Fire!"
Xiangyang’s hand ignited a scorching fla, which he hurled toward Lin Yuan.
The fla expanded with the wind, and in just a few breaths’ ti, it had engulfed an area within a hundred ters.
All around was a raging fire, the flas like a cage, trapping Lin Yuan inside.
Xiangyang’s tattoos depicted the Mountain-Burning Red Boy.
The temperature of these flas was extrely high; the last ti Lin Yuan encountered such scorching flas was during his battle with Zhang Peng.
At that ti, Zhang Peng’s Fire-tipped Spear and Wind-Fire Wheel flas were just like this.
This type of fla is formally known as Samadhi True Fire.
"Lin Yuan, I admit you’re very strong!"
"But I just need to trap you!"
"Once Mr. Xu returns, your conspiracy with Yang Dingguo to commit murder will be exposed to the world."
"When that ti cos, I really want to see if Yang Dingguo can still hold his position!" Xiangyang said with so pride.
What is trapping Lin Yuan now is the Samadhi True Fire. Even though Lin Yuan is stronger than him, trying to break out is absolutely not easy.
Even though Lin Yuan is surrounded by Samadhi True Fire, he still remains completely calm.
Never mind the re Samadhi True Fire, even the alchemy furnace of Lao Jun couldn’t trap Lin Yuan.
"Do you really think such a petty skill can trap ?" Lin Yuan said with a mocking expression.
Xiangyang: "????"
Xiangyang thought, this is Samadhi True Fire! You call this a petty skill.
"Lin Yuan, you’re too arrogant..."
Before Xiangyang could finish his sentence, his pupils suddenly contracted, revealing a look of disbelief.
He saw, out of nowhere beneath Lin Yuan’s feet appeared a wide stone path, two ters across and forty-nine ters long.
This stone path seed to ignore space, and as soon as Lin Yuan stepped onto it, he instantly appeared outside the Samadhi True Fire.
The Power of Rules of the Yellow Springs Road Tattoo is "No Distance."
Ignoring distance.
How could re Samadhi True Fire possibly trap Lin Yuan?
Moreover, Lin Yuan seed to have discovered a problem.
It seems, among all the Tier Six Life Pattern Masters he had encountered, only the Celestial King’s seven-layer Linglong Tower contained the Power of Rules.
That is, the "Forbidden Space" swallowed by the Qiankun Umbrella, apart from that, whether it is Tiangang, Gongcao, Divine Empress, or today’s Xiangyang, their tattoos show no sign of the Power of Rules.
The specific reason is still unknown.
However, now is not the ti to think about this matter.
After utilizing the Yellow Springs Road Tattoo Ability and escaping the encirclent of the Samadhi True Fire, Lin Yuan did not beco entangled with Xiangyang and the others, but instead directly pursued Xu Fuchao.
Killing him is the key, Xiangyang and these small fries can wait until the main target is dealt with.
"Captain Xiang, the person disappeared!" A subordinate of Xiangtian pointed to the direction where Lin Yuan vanished and said.
Xiangyang also furrowed his brows, and after a mont, as if realizing sothing, he had a sudden enlightennt: "Quick, he’s gone after Mr. Xu."
Xiangyang urgently led his n to chase toward Demon Dragon City, but alas, their speed compared to Lin Yuan was far too slow.
Xiangtian’s Roc Tattoo, once beastified, actually had a fast speed.
In Journey to the West, the Golden-Winged Roc soared nine thousand miles with a single flap of its wings. Its speed was not inferior to Wukong’s Sorsault Cloud.
Of course, Xiangtian’s Roc speed is surely not that fast, but it was still far faster than the previous ard helicopter.
But utilizing tattoo abilities, especially complete beastification, expends a vast amount of Deceitful Qi energy.
In the Roc’s beastified state, Xiangtian could not sustain it for too long.
To put it simply, the Roc’s speed is indeed fast, but it lacks endurance!
The Roc may be fast, but Lin Yuan is even faster.
As for endurance!
Well, there’s no doubt.
Lin Yuan’s endurance has already been acknowledged by Bai Ling’Er and Wen Yingying.
The Roc was clutching Xu Fuchao as it flew, but Lin Yuan suddenly appeared behind it.
Feeling Lin Yuan behind him, Xiangtian, transford into the Roc, got startled and almost dropped Xu Fuchao from his talons.
Lin Yuan directly appeared on the Roc’s back and sat down firmly.
"Pfft!"
There was no exchange of words between them, the blade of Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword pierced straight through the Roc that Xiangtian transford into.
"Ah!"
Xiangtian let out a cry of pain, unable to maintain his beast form, and fell directly from the sky.
Xiangtian was certainly dead, because Lin Yuan’s recent strike had pierced his heart.
"Ah!"
"Help! Help!"
Xu Fuchao was performing a free fall in the air, shouting for soone to save him.
A free fall from such a height, his life would end imdiately.
However, just as he was about to hit the ground, Lin Yuan grabbed his neck firmly and landed smoothly.
Xu Fugong was just a normal person, he was an official, and before the strange invasion, he surely didn’t have tattoos.
In his current position, he definitely couldn’t cut off soone else’s tattoos to graft onto himself.
For a common worker, shouting for help was indeed very normal.
After all, the strange invasion was akin to bungee jumping, causing many people not to dare try it.
The bungee height is far below the distance Xu Fuchao fell from, and at least a bungee jump has a cord tied!
Strictly speaking, Xu Fuchao’s recent reaction was that of a normal person.
Xu Fuchao was grabbed by Lin Yuan, not falling to his death.
Thinking about this, Xu Fuchao looked toward the direction where Xiangtian had fallen, seeing that Xiangtian had turned into a bloody ss on the ground.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for saving !"
"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for saving !" Xu Fuchao didn’t forget to thank Lin Yuan at this mont!
Xu Fuchao honestly didn’t expect Lin Yuan would save him at this ti.
After all, Lin Yuan was helping Yang Dingguo to kill him, and had just watched him fall together with Xiangtian to death.
While Xu Fuchao was puzzled, Lin Yuan gave him a straightforward answer.
"No need to thank !"
"Is there a possibility that the reason I saved you is because I wanted to kill you myself?" Lin Yuan sneered coldly, drew Zhong Kui’s Demon-Slaying Sword with a "zing".
Scarlet blood flashed by, and Xu Fuchao’s head flew off his shoulders.
Xu Fuchao’s body went limp and fell silent.
If he had a choice, he probably wouldn’t have waded into Peng City’s muddy waters!
