“Alert! Alert! Prisoner No. 1 at Blackstone Island Prison is about to be released! All guards, immediately enter SSS-level security status!!!”
The piercing red alarm shattered the silence on this isolated island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
Ten thousand armed prison guards and over a thousand expert snipers had completed their deployment around the island.
The entire prison was on high alert, as if some terrifying monster were about to emerge.
“Thud, thud, thud!”
Ninety-nine bigwigs who could make the world tremble with a single stamp of their feet stood in perfect formation on either side, their expressions solemn, as if welcoming a god!
A handsome, striking young man with a tall, straight posture walked toward them step by step beneath everyone’s gaze.
His name was Lin Yan, the legitimate young master of the Lin Group, who had been switched at birth and raised elsewhere for fifteen years.
Lin Yan had suffered every hardship and endured every kind of torment in the countryside. When he was fifteen, his biological parents finally found him and brought him home from the impoverished mountains.
Lin Yan had thought he had finally made it through the hard times and found a family.
He never imagined that what awaited him was not a home, but an even bigger pit of fire!
The Fake Young Master, Lin Che, had driven drunk and hit someone overseas before fleeing the scene.
His biological parents had found him, only because they wanted him to take the blame for Lin Che!
“I’m your biological son. Why are you making me take the blame?”
Lin Yan had demanded, his eyes red.
“If Lin Che goes to prison, his whole life will be ruined. Besides, you’re used to hardship in the countryside. Going to prison might even be a blessing for you!” his mother, Yang Yuxia, had replied coldly.
And so, his own biological parents had personally sent him to this Blackstone Island Prison.
He never expected that this prison was home to a hundred reclusive masters!
They recognized Lin Yan’s extraordinary talent and unusual physique, so they took him in as a disciple and taught him everything they knew.
Over the course of five years, Lin Yan had mastered every skill of the hundred masters, but his heart had never found peace.
On the day of his release, Lin Yan didn’t hurry to leave. Instead, he went to each of his Masters to bid them farewell.
An old man in a physician’s robe furrowed his brow and was about to speak, but a white-bearded Daoist beside him stopped him.
“Masters, I’m going to bid Master Yuhan farewell. I’ll come visit you again someday!”
Only after that did Lin Yan head for the stone chamber in the deepest part of the prison, which had been kept closed for years.
Once Lin Yan was out of earshot, the old man in the physician’s robe impatiently brushed aside the Daoist’s hand and said:
“The signs of that brat Yan’s Nine Dragons Pure Yang Body erupting are showing. Why did you stop me from suppressing it?”
The Daoist stroked his white beard and gazed at Lin Yan’s retreating figure with a smile:
“The Red Luan star in that brat Yan’s destiny is shining brilliantly today. And on the way here, I saw magpies circling the branches in the southeast. His romantic luck is exceptionally strong!”
The old man in the physician’s robe widened his eyes. “You mean that brat Yan might get together with Miss…”
The white-bearded Daoist smiled and nodded.
…
…
The stone chamber housed the most mysterious of the hundred Masters: a woman.
For five years, she had kept her head covered by a bamboo hat and her face hidden behind a black veil, making her features impossible to discern. Even the ninety-nine other masters bowed to her when they saw her. She had never said a word or offered him any guidance, only secretly sending him a wisp of yin energy whenever his yang energy stirred, helping him steady his mind.
“Master, your disciple is leaving. I came especially to say goodbye.”
The moment Lin Yan stepped inside, the blood in his body suddenly began to seethe!
His skin turned red, his blood boiled like water, and a faint dragon’s roar rose from within him!
Nine invisible Yang Dragons rampaged through his meridians, and it felt as if his entire body were being scorched by flames!
“Damn it… Why does it have to erupt now…”
Once the side effects of the Nine Dragons Pure Yang Body took hold, without extremely yin energy to balance it, the consequences could range from losing all martial arts to exploding and dying.
“Roar!!!”
Lin Yan’s eyes turned blood-red. His body blurred into a streak as he lunged fiercely at the cold, aloof figure before him.
Pei Yuhan, who had remained silent all this time, let out a faint sigh, mournful and plaintive.
She took off her bamboo hat and veil, revealing a peerlessly beautiful face, its frosty aloofness keeping everyone at a distance.
She did not push Lin Yan away. Instead, she removed her clothes and willingly wrapped her arms around his neck, her face still as cold and impassive as ever.
But under Lin Yan’s frenzied assault, Pei Yuhan could no longer maintain her composure. After holding it in for a long while, she finally let out a soft moan.
…
…
After who knew how long, the storm finally passed.
Lin Yan regained his senses. Looking at the disarray around them and the glaring smear of red, his eyes filled with solemnity and remorse. He took Pei Yuhan’s hand and said firmly:
“Master, I’ve wronged you. Don’t worry—I’ll take responsibility for you from now on!”
Pei Yuhan abruptly pulled her hand away. Her voice was bone-chilling, yet carried a barely perceptible tremble. “Get out!”
Lin Yan froze. “Master, I…”
“I said, get out!” Pei Yuhan cut him off, a complicated emotion flashing in her eyes. “Don’t come back to see me until you’ve reached the Martial Emperor realm!
And you must never tell anyone about what happened today!
Otherwise, I’ll kill you with my own hands!”
Looking into Pei Yuhan’s icy eyes, Lin Yan steeled himself and suddenly planted a hard kiss on her rosy lips!
“You… What are you doing… Mm…”
Lin Yan knew he had gambled right. With Pei Yuhan’s abilities, pushing him away would have been as easy as lifting a finger.
She hadn’t done so, which meant she had feelings for him!
If that was the case, why should he hold back?
He hadn’t been conscious earlier and hadn’t enjoyed it. What a loss!
An hour later.
Lin Yan looked seriously at Pei Yuhan and said solemnly:
“From now on, I’ll never call you Master again!
I want you to be my woman!
Pei Yuhan, the next time we meet, I’ll be strong enough to make you willingly submit beneath me!”
With that, Lin Yan turned and left without looking back.
Watching Lin Yan’s retreating figure, a trace of loneliness finally crossed Pei Yuhan’s eternally impassive face. “Silly boy… You can’t do it… No one can save me…”
…
…
Three hours later.
Aboard the 【Sea God】 luxury cruise ship bound for Great Xia
Lin Yan stood on the deck, feeling the sea breeze as he thought back to what had happened just a few hours earlier.
Suddenly, faint cries for help came from a nearby VIP cabin.
“Let us go… Help… Help…”
Lin Yan frowned and pushed the door open.
Inside the luxurious VIP suite, a pair of breathtakingly beautiful, voluptuous sisters were sprawled across the sofa, their eyes unfocused and their breathing ragged.
In front of them, several burly foreign men grinned lewdly as they slowly unbuckled their belts and unfastened their pants.
A video camera was set up nearby.
Normally, Lin Yan couldn’t be bothered with this sort of thing. What if they were doing it willingly, or he rescued the women only for them to turn around and accuse him?
But these two women were both from Great Xia!
So now that Lin Yan had seen what was happening, he couldn’t just ignore it!
Whether they were willing or not was none of Lin Yan’s concern. He simply couldn’t stand seeing beautiful women from Great Xia get screwed by foreigners!
“You think you can run wild on Great Xia’s turf?”
“Fuck! Who the hell are you, punk? Get lost!”
A white man snatched up a beer bottle from the table and swung it at Lin Yan’s head.
Lin Yan didn’t even blink. He casually waved his hand!
Bang!
The white man, a hulking figure weighing over two hundred pounds, was sent flying. He smashed through the wooden door of the VIP cabin and plunged into the sea!
“Fuck! Get him!”
Several burly foreigners grabbed whatever they could—daggers, bottles, and other weapons—and rushed at him.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lin Yan flicked his hand, sending several streaks of silver light piercing through the foreigners and leaving them unable to move.
“Don’t move!!!”
At that moment, the only person at the scene who could still move—a Black man—pulled out a handgun and angrily aimed it at Lin Yan:
“Punk, get on your knees and shine my shoes!”
Lin Yan raised an eyebrow. “I bet your gun’s out of bullets.”
“Motherfucker!”
The Black man, enraged, fired several shots.
But not a single shot went off!
Lin Yan smiled faintly, raised his hand, and turned his palm toward the floor.
Clatter!
Bullets scattered across the floor!
The Black man was so terrified he pissed himself.
When had this Great Xia man taken the bullets out of his gun?
“Demon… Don’t come near me… Get away!”
Bang!
One punch, and the Black man passed out too.
Just then, someone wrapped their arms around Lin Yan’s waist from behind. He turned to look and saw the sister duo from the sofa.
The older sister’s gorgeous, dazed eyes held on to the last thread of reason as she pleaded:
“Help… Please help us… I can give you lots of money…”
Lin Yan raised an eyebrow. “You really want me to help you?”
“P-please…”
“All right, then.”
Lin Yan reluctantly began taking off his clothes…
