1057: Chapter 1077: It’s Not a Loss to Catch Such a Big Fish!_1 1057: Chapter 1077: It’s Not a Loss to Catch Such a Big Fish!_1 Intense pain shot through Luo Yuan’s body, and visibly, the flesh on his right arm and palm was lting like ice, exposing the white bones underneath.
What was even more terrifying was that the lting was spreading, creeping up along his arm!
He even felt that his bones were being corroded violently, rotting rapidly!
Seeing his hand turn into a bloody skeletal one in the blink of an eye, Luo Yuan’s eyes flashed with fierceness.
He raised his left hand, turned it into a blade, and directly chopped at his right upper arm.
Blood splattered, and Luo Yuan’s right arm was chopped off, falling to the ground.
Luo Yuan retreated quickly, his face pale as he looked at Lin Chen with deep apprehension in his eyes.
“What the hell is this thing!”
Lin Chen said with regret, “You’re quite decisive, actually cutting off your own arm…”
Luo Yuan circulated his energy to seal off the blood spurt from his severed arm, and his figure rapidly retreated, distancing himself from Lin Chen.
“Is this how you killed the mbers of the Skeleton and Luohan Bandit Gang?”
Lin Chen smiled, “Not worth ntioning, just so trivial tricks.
I apologize for letting Lord Luo see such a spectacle!”
Trivial tricks?
Apologize?
Luo Yuan wanted to curse, and he was deeply regretful.
Why didn’t he ask Lin Chen earlier about how he managed to kill so many people?
Why did he assu from the start that Lin Chen killed so many people because he had the Emperor’s Seal?
The sudden turn of events caught Xu Xianxiang, who was on the other side of the battle, by surprise.
What happened?
Luo Yuan directly severed his own arm, and it was his right hand?
Wouldn’t this greatly affect his strength?
How could they continue to fight?
Lin Chen, holding the Water and Fire Mirror, once again released sky-filling flas towards Luo Yuan.
This ti, Luo Yuan retreated far away, avoiding the flas entirely.
Lin Chen then took the opportunity to gather his spiritual energy and quickly ran outside, while Gao Yi rushed in another direction.
Seeing this scene, Luo Yuan knew that there was no way he could trap the three of them today.
How could he dare to get any closer?
Who knew if that eerie blood fog was mixed into those flas?
Luo Yuan wielded his nine-section whip, striking at Lin Chen once again.
This ti, Lin Chen caught the attack, but his expression wasn’t too uncomfortable.
Luo Yuan’s combat power had significantly decreased due to his severed arm!
Seeing this, Luo Yuan knew that the situation was beyond salvation.
In a mont of rage, he flew up and shouted, “Go!”
Xu Xianxiang’s heart had already grown restless.
Originally, he intended to use Array Formation to completely trap the three of them, allowing Luo Yuan to sneak in and launch a surprise attack.
As long as Yelü Yuan was heavily injured, killing Lin Chen would be a simple task, right?
However, the outco was unexpected.
They not only managed to escape but also couldn’t kill even one of the two!
Luo Yuan, who was at the Great Circle of Void Separation stage, was actually unable to kill Lin Chen!
Seeing the three of them getting closer to the edge, Xu Xianxiang didn’t dare to linger any longer.
He soared into the sky, following Luo Yuan, and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
Lin Chen and the other two left the range of Array Formation, Yelü Yuan cursed, “That damn Luo Yuan, he hid so well!
If you hadn’t seen through him earlier and waited for Xu Xianxiang to attack us instead, none of us could have stopped him!”
Gao Yi looked at Lin Chen with bright eyes, “I was busy dealing with Xu Xianxiang just now and didn’t notice anything.
That was close, Lin Chen.
Luckily, you noticed.”
Lin Chen also felt a lingering fear in his heart.
A super expert at the Great Circle of Void Separation stage, launching a full-strength attack on his completely defenseless self from behind, what would be the consequence?
Death!
A hundred percent instant kill!
“I didn’t expect Luo Yuan, as a City Lord, to be a disciple of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect.
We were all deceived, and even the readily available Xu Xianxiang was rescued by him…”
Yelü Yuan grinned, “Well, didn’t he waste one of his hands because of you?
His strength has greatly decreased, and we exposed a hidden big fish, so this was not a loss.”
Gao Yi nodded his head in agreent, “It would have been better if we killed him, but even if we didn’t kill him but exposed his identity, it’s not bad either.
At least Luo Yuan might not be able to return as the City Lord of Tianyuan City anymore, and he will have to hide his identity from now on.”
Lin Chen frowned, “Luo Yuan is a mber of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect and still a City Lord, so why didn’t he directly recruit Zhang Zhongyan into the sect and let Xu Xianxiang take the shot instead?”
“To hide his identity, as an extra layer of insurance.”
Gao Yi smiled, “If Xu Xianxiang recruited Zhang Zhongyan, regardless of Zhang Zhongyan’s reaction, Luo Yuan could hide in the shadows, keeping the situation under control.
Think about it, if Zhang Zhongyan was displeased with Xu Xianxiang, who would he report his concerns to?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen suddenly understood.
Yes, if Xu Xianxiang recruited Zhang Zhongyan, and Zhang Zhongyan was dissatisfied with Xu Xianxiang, he might have so doubts or plan so major action – in that case, he would definitely report to City Lord Luo Yuan first.
Wouldn’t that be like throwing themselves into the trap?
Even if Xu Xianxiang was exposed, Luo Yuan could still openly participate in the matter as a City Lord, use Xu Xianxiang to launch a counterattack, just as they were doing against Lin Chen and his group.
As long as they killed and silenced everyone, everything would be as if nothing ever happened – Xu Xianxiang would still be a Master Refiner, and Luo Yuan would still be a City Lord.
Such a cunning plan!
