BANG!
Lin Haochen slammed the car door shut and walked slowly to the back of the vehicle, his eyes fixed on the nine men who had just gotten out of the car behind them.
Inside the car, Lin Mushu watched Lin Haochen stand alone, her heart a tangled mess.
Her brother’s words had been touching, and she was terrified right now, but she absolutely could not abandon Lin Haochen to face this alone!
Lin Mushu unbuckled her seatbelt and tried to open the door to get out, only to find that Lin Haochen had locked it!
Watching the men draw closer and closer to Lin Haochen, Lin Mushu was frantic.
With no other choice, she decided to call the police.
Lin Haochen faced the nine men, a mysterious, cat-and-mouse smile on his face.
He had been looking for clues about the destruction of the Lin Family five years ago, and these men were clearly sent by them!
Because these men were all Martial Cultivators.
Although they were only of the lowest Martial Artist Realm, each one of them was still capable of taking on ten mercenaries.
To be able to dispatch so many Martial Cultivators was something no Noble Family in Jin City could possibly do.
“Kid, if you don’t want to die, get the hell out of my way!”
The man at the very front said arrogantly, not giving Lin Haochen a second thought.
Li Yuanzheng came to a stop before Lin Haochen without giving him so much as a glance.
But seeing that Lin Haochen had no intention of moving, he waved a hand, signaling for two of his men to go deal with him.
The two Martial Cultivators approached Lin Haochen with contemptuous smiles, cracking their knuckles.
Two Martial Cultivators taking care of some punk?
‘Wouldn’t that be a piece of cake?’
In the car, Lin Mushu watched the scene unfold, frantic.
But besides pounding on the door, there was nothing she could do.
But before they could even reach Lin Haochen, something incredible happened.
The two men suddenly dropped to their knees without any warning, their faces filled with terror!
This…
Li Yuanzheng whipped his head around.
He was a powerhouse at the Third Layer of the Martial Artist Realm, yet he hadn’t even seen how Lin Haochen had struck!
‘I can’t believe this kid is also a powerful Martial Cultivator!’
Li Yuanzheng’s heart leaped in shock, and his eyes filled with vigilance as he looked at Lin Haochen.
“Kid, I suggest you know what’s good for you and stay out of this mess.
Otherwise, the consequences will be more than you can bear.”
Li Yuanzheng said coldly.
Although he couldn’t gauge Lin Haochen’s true strength, he knew Lin Haochen was no match for the person backing him.
But Lin Haochen just sneered and said, “Is that so?
There are no consequences in this world that I, the Netherworld King, cannot bear!”
At that very moment, a terrifying killing intent erupted from Lin Haochen, instantly enveloping all nine men!
A bone-chilling coldness instantly filled every inch of their bodies, as if they had been plunged into the absolute zero of the arctic.
The next second, it was as if they had arrived in the Eighteen Layers of Hell.
Everything around them was blood-red, making them tremble from within.
Their bodies went limp, and they collapsed to the ground!
Lin Haochen stepped on Li Yuanzheng’s head, forcing his face into intimate contact with the ground.
“Talk.
Who is the person backing you?!”
“I… I… I don’t know who they are, but they are definitely not people you can afford to provoke!”
Li Yuanzheng was panicking now.
He never imagined this young man’s power would be so unfathomable.
He feared that killing him would be as easy as lifting a finger.
‘As I thought, they don’t know the specifics.
What reason could there be for them to act so cautiously?’
‘Logically, they don’t know my identity, and my sister is just an ordinary person.
There’s no need to go to such great lengths.’
‘Why are they doing this?’
“Tell me everything you know!”
“If I talk, will you let me go?”
However, the moment Li Yuanzheng said this, Lin Haochen pressed down with his foot, sinking the man’s face into the ground.
“Do you think you’re in any position to bargain with me?”
Feeling Lin Haochen’s intense killing intent, Li Yuanzheng nearly wet himself.
He had never felt a killing intent this strong before.
This killing intent alone seemed capable of killing him!
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk, I’ll talk!
Mr.
Li is from the Imperial Capital.
I’ve never seen his face clearly.
He gave us ten million to quietly kill Lin Mushu.
I don’t know anything else.
I’ve told you everything I know.
Please, please let me go!”
Li Yuanzheng spilled everything he knew in one breath.
He knew the young man before him was even more terrifying than Mr.
Li from the Imperial Capital!
‘Mr.
Li?’
‘There doesn’t seem to be a Li Family in the Imperial Capital.
I’ll have King Yama investigate people with the surname Li in the Imperial Capital later.’
With a burst of force from his foot, Lin Haochen kicked Li Yuanzheng in front of his own car and said, “Get lost!”
Hearing Lin Haochen’s words, the group of men scrambled into their car and fled, even faster than when they arrived.
After their car drove off, Lin Haochen finally unlocked the door.
Lin Mushu immediately got out and pulled Lin Haochen around, looking him over from left to right.
“Sis, I’m fine.
Didn’t I tell you before?
I trained in martial arts overseas.
I’m a Martial Cultivator.
Even if all of them came at me at once, they wouldn’t be my match.”
Lin Mushu finally relaxed after confirming that Lin Haochen was unharmed, and then she threw her arms around him.
“I’m so glad you’re okay!
You can’t be so reckless next time!
You’re the only family I have left.
I don’t want to lose you again.”
Hearing the sob in Lin Mushu’s voice, Lin Haochen was at a loss for what to do.
He could only reach out and hug her back.
“Don’t worry, Sis.
I’ll never leave you!”
