WHIRR!
WHIRR!
The Golden Core spun rapidly, like a great whale sucking in water. It devoured all the True Qi, then, as it transford and grew stronger, released the refined energy to flow into the ridians.
Lin Tang's consciousness retracted into his Golden Core, morphing from an intangible state into a tangible Divine Sense.
WHOOSH!
His Divine Sense spread out from the Golden Core, forming transparent ripples that filled the entire cave. The patterns on the rocks, the figures of Ning Yuexi and Wei Zichu, and even the motes of dust floating in the air—everything was perceived. It was more thorough and clearer than what his eyes could see, his ears could hear, or his nose could sll. It was truly marvelous!
Lin Tang controlled his Divine Sense as if it were an extension of his own limbs, continuing to expand its reach. It only began to wane when it extended a hundred ters out. This was just after the initial breakthrough; with future cultivation, the range would gradually increase. Even so, a hundred ters was already very impressive!
He easily sensed Xiao Qingcang approaching, though Xiao Qingcang himself remained completely oblivious. He, too, had found the cave entrance and was convinced Lin Tang was hiding inside.
Disgusting little cockroach, let's see you escape now! His heart pounded with excitent. He was about to personally slay a Heavenly King! Even if it wasn't a fair fight, it was still a great honor.
"Hmph!"
Suddenly, a thunderous voice exploded in his mind.
Xiao Qingcang spat out a mouthful of blood, his face stricken with terror. "Ahhh—" He clutched his head to scream, but choked on the water. The rest of the sound ca out as a desperate gurgle as air burst from his lungs in a torrent of bubbles.
Lin Tang had focused his Divine Sense, shaping it into a sharp cone and striking him ruthlessly. It was a pure spiritual attack! With his Divine Sense alone, Lin Tang had easily suppressed a Grandmaster.
Xiao Qingcang's legs kicked out as he went rigid, then he sank without a sound.
Lin Tang withdrew his Divine Sense, nodding in satisfaction. Because he had been conscious during this Dual Cultivation session, their clothes remained intact. Joy filled his heart as he finally turned his attention to Ning Yuexi, his hands beginning to wander over her body uncontrollably.
"My achievent of the Golden Core is largely thanks to you. Let thank you properly!"
Lin Tang chuckled and gently began to undress her, his movents exceptionally tender.
Wei Zichu, who had just been violently swept up by his tempestuous True Qi and sent spinning through the air in an experience more thrilling than any roller coaster, was just now recovering. Hearing the sounds, she complained resentfully, "In the future, when you two get intimate, could you please not toss people around for your own amusent?"
"I'm sorry, Zichu, I didn't an to. Are you still feeling unwell? Why don't you co over and let treat you," Lin Tang said enthusiastically, his hands still busy.
"You can do other things in a situation like this?" Wei Zichu asked, astonished.
"It's just multitasking. It's quite simple."
"..."
Damn, you're a real piece of work!
Since she couldn't see anything and wasn't particularly shy by nature, she actually began to grope her way over.
"Hey, where are you putting your hands?" Lin Tang shrieked in protest.
"Ah, sorry!" Wei Zichu's face flushed hot, and her heartbeat quickened.
Hearing Ning Yuexi's stifled moans, she suddenly felt an impulse… to join them!
Pah! What on earth am I thinking!
「At the Heavenly chanism Martial Alliance.」
Many people were unconscious, but none of the onlookers hiding nearby dared to take advantage of the chaos. The scene was too shocking and intimidating.
Xiao Xuanye received a report from his subordinates and learned that Long Tianji had sohow survived. He was both disappointed and panicked.
What should I do? What if Long Tianji cos after later…? That Langhuan Holy Land is a load of crap! All that bluster and this is the result?
Anxiously, he once again thought of the cyber-soldier program Yan Qinghe had proposed.
This feeling of helplessness is awful! I might as well bet it all…
At the scene, the students from the Heavenly Person Academy ran to Ji Yongyan's side after a long, stunned silence. "Academy Master, are you alright?"
Their cheeks burned as if they had been slapped dozens of tis. And to think we had so much confidence in our Master, believing he would personally take out Long Tianji. The result… is such a slap in the face!
Ji Yongyan slowly regained consciousness and sighed. He urged them, "Quick, take back to the academy. Seal the gates and lay low. I have a feeling that after surviving this, Long Tianji will go on a crazed revenge spree… Go! Go now!"
"Yes!" The students lifted his battered form and fled in disarray.
Afterward, Zhao Xingyun also awoke. The mont he saw Zhao Xinghe, he staggered toward him, intent on killing the traitor.
Zhao Xinghe opened his eyes, first in sheer terror, then with a fierce shout, "You have to consider the master before you strike the dog! If you back off now, I swear I'll diate and persuade Heavenly King Long not to annihilate the Zhao Family. Otherwise, you can all prepare for extinction!"
Zhao Xingyun froze, his intestines twisting with regret. He never should have gotten involved in this ss.
Damn it, where's my circlet? It seems to still be on Long Tianji's head. He took it with him! Shit! His heart bled, and his eyes turned bloodshot. "Only by killing you can I ensure Long Tianji never finds the Zhao Family's hiding place."
"Don't be naive! Even without , if Heavenly King Long wants to find it, he will."
"...You'll really try to persuade him?"
"Of course. We're family, after all!"
Zhao Xingyun gave a bitter smile. What a family, indeed. "Rember what you said."
He staggered away, making his escape.
The few survivors from Langhuan Holy Land gradually awoke. Knowing they were now in a fight to the death with Long Tianji, they had intended to slaughter everyone from the Heavenly chanism Martial Alliance to vent their rage. However, more and more mbers of the Martial Alliance were regaining consciousness. When they pulled out modern firearms, the survivors knew it was ti to flee. In their heavily injured state, they couldn't possibly dodge a hail of bullets.
"That dog Xiao Qingcang actually ran off first and abandoned us… When we get back, we must report him and have him punished severely!"
They had lost consciousness too quickly to know that Xiao Qingcang was already on his way to hunt down Long Tianji, a decision that would end in tragedy.
Since Shatana was locked in a room, the walls and distance had buffered her from the worst of the impact. Although she had fallen unconscious, she was uninjured. When she awoke, she quietly peeked outside. Seeing that the enemies had all fled, she heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Central Earth is too dangerous. I want to go ho… Shatana's nose tingled, and she couldn't resist making a call to complain. She also asked, "Mommy, what's a Faith Body?"
"What? The fact that you're a Faith Body has been exposed? Damn it, how could this happen…" The Empress exploded with rage, utterly disappointed, even swearing without a trace of her usual dignity. Finally, she cald down and said with deep regret, "If you want to co back, you'd better leave imdiately. Otherwise, you'll never be able to return."
"Huh? Why?"
"Once he learns the truth, Long Tianji will kill you."
Shatana froze, a chill of pure terror seizing her.
「Downstairs at the Shen Family's company building.」
Just as the mob was about to tear her apart, the hairpin on Shen Youling's head flashed with green light, on the verge of transforming. But Lee Encai had already reached out and pulled her away just in ti.
"Are you all crazy? Shen Youling is Lin Tang's most precious treasure, and Lin Tang is a ruthless man who would even poison Director Xiao! If you hurt her, aren't you afraid Lin Tang will poison all of your families in retaliation?"
"This..." The crowd paled with fear.
That was right. Shen Youling wasn't just Director Xiao's adopted daughter with a high status; she also had a daring and vicious husband. If he sought revenge...
Seeing the atmosphere de-escalate, Lee Encai added that Lin Tang would surely have a cure for the side effects and that he would definitely co. Since they had already waited this long, what was the harm in waiting a little longer?
"Fine, we'll wait until sunset."
"If he's not here by dark, don't bla us!"
The crowd relented, allowing Shen Youling to untie Dong Mingfeng and the others. As soon as the four of them were free, they bolted for the restrooms—they had been holding it in for ages.
After freshening up, they sat on the company's first-floor lobby, glaring at the people watching them with a mixture of fear and anger.
"Youling, you have to think of sothing!"
"What can I possibly do at this point?"
"...Can't you call Director Xiao and beg him to send people to handle these scoundrels?"
"You should be grateful Director Xiao didn't have you executed personally."
"Hey, watch your mouth!"
When they learned that Lin Tang was actually going to face a Grandmaster, they erupted.
"Isn't that fucking stupid?"
"He's completely overestimating himself!"
"If he wants to get himself killed, he should have solved our problem first, that bastard… Hmm? What are you filming?"
Lee Encai held up her phone, smiling. "I'm just recording your ugly faces to show Big Brother Lin how you've been cursing him. That way, he won't co to save you."
"Bastard!"
"You little bitch, what are you up to!"
SLAP!
Lee Encai landed a vicious slap across the faces of Dong Mingfeng and Shen Jiayue. "Watch your damn mouths!"
"You, you, you!!"
"Shen Youling, are you dead? You're just going to let her bully like this? Do you even consider your mother anymore?"
Completely exhausted, Shen Youling simply closed her eyes, resigning herself to fate.
Ti passed until the sun began to set, but there was still no sign of Lin Tang.
This doesn't make sense… With Big Brother Lin's strength, rescuing Wei Zichu and the others should have been incredibly easy. Why has it been so long without any news? Lee Encai muttered to herself.
She tried calling Lin Tang several tis, but the calls wouldn't connect.
Could sothing have really happened to him? Her heart leaped into her throat.
She was completely unaware that Yan Luoyang, his injuries now fully healed, had once again arrived in Jiangbei. Lin Tang had done sothing to mask Lee Encai's presence, so Yan Luoyang didn't know her exact location. Even so, he was heading toward the Shen Family's company building, drawing closer and closer.
The scandal surrounding the Shen Family's new drug had caused a huge number of custors to protest, and reporters were naturally covering the story. A quick online search was all it took for Yan Luoyang to find out. Upon learning this, he imdiately concocted a sinister plan: he would kill so of the protestors and fra Lin Tang, claiming he was the one who poisoned them. While it wouldn't cause any substantial damage to Lin Tang, it would let him vent so of his rage and collect a little interest on his debt of hatred.
If Shen Youling happens to be there too, I'll torture her to death. That will definitely cause Lin Tang a lot of pain, hahaha—
