The guard Lin Hao had first encountered watched this scene with a cold smirk.
As the capital of the Southern Border Prefecture, even a random guard in Celestial Jade City had a cultivation at the seventh or Eighth Layer of the Blood Coagulation Realm.
This beggar had only succeeded just now because he’d been caught off guard.
Now, with more than ten guards attacking at once, and with long spears at that, this beggar wasn’t even dodging or evading. He was practically asking for death.
’Does he really think these guards are made of paper?!’
The thought had barely crossed his mind when the dozen or so long spears reached Lin Hao’s body.
However, what happened next left him utterly dumbfounded.
"BWANG! BWANG! BWANG!"
The dozen or so long spears struck Lin Hao’s body, but it was as if they had hit a wall of solid bronze.
The spears bent, vibrating with a loud hum, but they simply could not pierce Lin Hao’s flesh.
"A body of impenetrable steel!"
Soone in the crowd with worldly knowledge cried out in shock upon seeing this.
Hearing this, the face of the one guard who hadn’t attacked changed drastically, and he turned to flee.
A glint flashed in Lin Hao’s eyes. He ford his hand into a blade and chopped down.
The long spears before him were sliced apart as if by a razor’s edge, the cuts perfectly clean and smooth.
Then, with a single step, Lin Hao had already grabbed the guard.
"rcy, young hero, rcy!" Before Lin Hao could even speak, the guard was already begging for his life.
Though his cultivation wasn’t high, he was knowledgeable. He knew he couldn’t afford to provoke a Martial Artist with a body of impenetrable steel.
"I’m not interested in your life. I just want to ask you, did a master and servant enter the city just now? One was riding a horse, the other was riding..."
Lin Hao spoke, describing their mounts and appearances.
He had to follow through on the promise he made to that old man.
"You’re talking about Young Master Wei Feng! He’s from the Wei Mansion," the guard hastily replied as soon as Lin Hao finished.
A glint appeared in Lin Hao’s eyes as he asked, "How do I get to the Wei Mansion?"
The guard scrambled to give Lin Hao the directions.
After listening, Lin Hao said no more, tossed the guard aside, and strode away.
"Captain, are we just going to let him go like that?" One of the guard’s trusted subordinates quickly gathered around, asking as he stared at Lin Hao’s retreating back.
The captain’s eyes were filled with venom as he sneered, "That brat doesn’t know what’s good for him. It looks like he’s going to cause trouble for Young Master Wei. You, take a shortcut to the Wei Mansion and report this.
’Hmph! So what if he has a body of impenetrable steel? The Wei Mansion is the third-greatest family in Celestial Jade City, second only to the Lu family and the Ling family.
Not long ago, Young Master Wei Feng’s sister married into the Lu family. If Ling Xiao of the Ling family fails to beco the Sect Leader of the Heaven-Stepping Sect, the position of the second-greatest family might just change hands. This ti, that kid is dead for sure!’
"Got it! I’ll tell the Wei Mansion to leave the kid barely alive, so you can vent your anger and finish him off yourself, Captain!" This subordinate was clearly a smooth-talker who had long since figured out his captain’s thoughts.
Sure enough, the captain smiled.
Watching his subordinate leave, the captain glared in the direction Lin Hao had gone and said hatefully, "Brat, before long, I’ll make you wish you were dead!"
At that mont, Lin Hao, the object of his intense hatred, suddenly stopped walking.
Killing intent!
Lin Hao felt a faint, almost imperceptible trace of killing intent.
The next mont, Lin Hao’s hand shot out and snatched sothing from the air.
A dark iron token appeared in his hand.
The dark iron token was only half the size of a palm and pitch-black. One side was engraved with the character for "Order," while the other depicted two small, crossed scimitars with two lifelike skulls on their hilts.
Seeing it, Lin Hao’s expression couldn’t help but change.
The Soul-Chasing Order!
This was the unique Token of the world’s number one assassin organization, Netherworld Hall!
Once the Soul-Chasing Order was issued, the target was given three hours to prepare for their death. After that, the hunt would be relentless, ending only in death!
But after his expression flickered, Lin Hao quickly returned to normal and calmly tossed the Soul-Chasing Order into his storage ring.
Then, the corner of his mouth lifted into a slight smile.
Following the directions, Lin Hao turned onto a side path and soon saw a magnificent mansion up ahead.
Lin Hao walked closer and saw two large words inscribed above the entrance—Wei Mansion.
At this mont, the main gates of the Wei Mansion were wide open. A glance inside revealed a huge plaza, and beyond it, countless doors.
But the Wei Mansion was eerily silent.
The setup was clearly a trap, an invitation for him to walk right in.
Before, Lin Hao might have hesitated. But now, having received the Soul-Chasing Order, there was nowhere in Celestial Jade City he wouldn’t dare to enter.
Without a shred of hesitation, Lin Hao strode inside.
"BOOM!"
Just as Lin Hao entered and descended the steps, the gates behind him slamd shut with a deafening bang.
The once-empty plaza was suddenly teeming with people. In an instant, Lin Hao was surrounded.
From a doorway directly facing the plaza, a person sauntered out.
It was none other than Young Master Wei Feng, who had just fled in a panic outside Celestial Jade City.
But now, seeing Lin Hao, his face was wreathed in a confident smile.
"CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!"
Lin Hao hadn’t said a word, but Wei Feng was already applauding.
"Impressive, most impressive. I didn’t even have to look for you, and you delivered yourself right to my doorstep. Tell , how would you like to die?"
With his first words, Wei Feng was telling Lin Hao to choose his own death.
But Lin Hao just smiled and said, "In here, you don’t get to decide how I die. But I can certainly decide how *you* die."
"So confident, aren’t you? But now that you’re in my Wei Mansion, it doesn’t matter even if you’re a disciple from one of the four great sects of the Southern Border Prefecture. Still, I am curious. How do you plan on killing ?" Wei Feng was still smiling.
In his eyes, Lin Hao was already a dead man.
"You will be dragged to death by an exotic beast!" Lin Hao recalled the state of the old man’s death, and a flicker of killing intent flashed in his eyes before vanishing.
Wei Feng paused, then said with a look of mock regret, "So Elder Yu is dead. What a sha. Now the bride won’t have a parent to see her off at the wedding ceremony."
Hearing this, Lin Hao’s eyes narrowed. He asked in a low voice, "ng Qing is here?"
Wei Feng shrugged and clapped his hands.
From a side door, the lanky man appeared.
In his hand, he held a rope.
Following the rope, a woman in a large red robe ca into Lin Hao’s view.
Upon seeing her, Lin Hao’s heart suddenly began to pound violently.
The woman in the red robe looked to be about twenty years old. She had a voluptuous figure and long legs, a stunning physique that even the loose red robe could not conceal.
At this mont, the woman’s mouth was gagged with a cloth strip. Though her face was etched with misery, her eyes held an alluring charm that could not be hidden.
Just one glance from her eyes had made Lin Hao blush and his heart race.
The first reaction upon seeing this woman was to think of the bedroom.
This was the kind of woman who could make a man lose all control, a woman they would go crazy for.
Lin Hao took a deep breath, clarity returning to his eyes. He silently mouthed three words: ’Heavenly Charm Physique!’
Lin Hao had first heard of the "Heavenly Charm Physique" from Lin Tianhao, who said that Yan’Er’s mother, Aunt Yun, possessed one and that he wanted to dual cultivate with her.
At the ti, Lin Hao hadn’t known what a Heavenly Charm Physique was and thought Lin Tianhao had made it up.
But after obtaining Chu Tiandu’s mories, Lin Hao learned that this type of physique truly existed.
The Heavenly Charm Physique was not a type of bloodline physique, nor was it related to awakening a bloodline.
In fact, won with this physique could not awaken a bloodline.
However, dual cultivating with soone of this physique could indeed bring unimaginable benefits.
In other words, the Heavenly Charm Physique made for an exceptional cultivation cauldron.
The prerequisite was that you had the self-control to handle yourself during the union.
The mont this woman appeared, everyone present began to breathe heavily. Lin Hao even saw so n starting to bend over unnaturally.
"You bastard, where’s the veil?" Wei Feng’s face turned beet red upon seeing the woman. It took him a long mont to snap out of his stupor, after which he started berating the lanky man.
The lanky man looked aggrieved.
"I’m the one who took it off," a female voice said.
Then, a rather attractive young married woman appeared.
"Sister, how could you do that? Quickly, cover ng Qing’s face!" Upon seeing the young woman, Wei Feng’s arrogance imdiately subsided, though he was still displeased.
"I just wanted to see if she really had that kind of charm, and now I have," the young woman said, her gaze sweeping over the crowd. She giggled, then covered the woman’s head with a large red wedding veil.
"I don’t want to start a massacre. Hand her over to !" Lin Hao said in a low voice.
"Oh my, little one. You’re not even fully grown, and you already know how to chase after won," the young woman said with a wanton giggle.
Lin Hao frowned.
Though he disliked her tone, he still said, "I was entrusted with a task, and I intend to see it through."
"It seems you want to join Elder Yu in the afterlife. Kill him for !" Wei Feng ordered, his killing intent surging.
Hearing this, ng Qing’s body suddenly went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
Then, she shook her head violently, managing to shake off the red veil.
Her eyes, filled with deep hatred, stared at Wei Feng. Her expression was one of wanting to tear his flesh from his bones.
anwhile, at Wei Feng’s command, more than ten people in the plaza attacked Lin Hao simultaneously.
These dozen or so individuals were on a completely different level from the guards earlier.
Every single one of them was at the Elental Realm of cultivation.
With more than ten of them attacking at once, all of Lin Hao’s escape routes were completely cut off.
Yet Lin Hao, standing at the center of the storm, just curled his lip in a wicked smile.
Not only did he not move a muscle, he even clasped his hands behind his back.
The next mont, the dozen or so people surrounding him froze as if they’d been hit by a Body Fixing Skill, completely unable to move.
Their fists were a re three inches from Lin Hao.
"What are you doing? Attack!" Wei Feng yelled.
His response was the sight of more than ten heads rolling on the ground.
All dozen or so people were dead!
And they were all killed in a single blow!
Everyone was horrified by this scene.
More than ten Elental Realm Martial Artists, killed in a single move. Such a thod sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
Lin Hao paused, then broke into a grin.
"D-Devil!" Seeing his smile, Wei Feng’s teeth began to chatter.
His sister fared even worse. Already collapsed on the ground, she shuddered violently at Lin Hao’s smile, and the stench of urine filled the air.
"I told you, you don’t decide whether I live or die. But I decide whether *you* live or die!" Lin Hao was still smiling as he spoke, stepping forward.
"Y-You... don’t co any closer!" Wei Feng suddenly grabbed ng Qing by her snow-white, jade-like neck.
He had witnessed Lin Hao’s abilities and had specifically prepared more than ten Elental Realm Martial Artists, but he never imagined they would all be killed in a single strike.
At this mont, he was scared out of his wits.
"Don’t move!" Lin Hao had just raised an eyebrow when Wei Feng shouted, stepping backward while tightening his grip on ng Qing’s neck.
ng Qing’s face turned bright red, and her eyes even began to roll back.
Wei Feng had seen Lin Hao’s speed; he was now terrified of every little movent.
Lin Hao’s body instantly froze.
