Yan Nanshan nodded, stealthily entering the Lin family compound like a phantom.
Qin Feiyang laughed, "Senior Yan King, you should know where Elder Lin resides. Lead the way!"
WHOOSH!
Without uttering a word, Yan King dove towards the Lin family’s backyard.
Ma Cheng followed closely.
Qin Feiyang walked beside Ren Wushuang, whispering, "Lion Headed Hawk, same old rules: don’t give Elder Lin any chance to escape."
"Do you still not trust me?" The Lion Headed Hawk glanced at him disdainfully.
In the Lin family’s backyard stood a secluded, two-story pavilion.
Through a window on the second floor, a faint candlelight shone.
Elder Lin was seated cross-legged on a bed, refining a Bloodfiend Pill.
All around the pavilion, it was eerily quiet.
Qin Feiyang and the others landed soundlessly beside the garden in front of the pavilion.
Ma Cheng said in a low, grave tone, "Elder Lin is a Five Star War Emperor; his strength is not to be underestimated. We must ensure a fatal blow on the first strike."
A Five Star War Emperor!
Qin Feiyang was shocked.
He’s even stronger than Elder Wan and the others. It seems we truly need a foolproof plan.
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed through his mind. He looked at the eagle perched on Ren Wushuang’s shoulder and muttered, "We need to change our strategy."
"Later, you’ll hide in my sleeve and act according to the situation."
"Senior Yan King, Senior Ma Cheng, you two hide on either side of the window to prevent his escape."
"Sister, it’s cool and pleasant high up. Why don’t you go up there to enjoy the air and help me monitor the Lin family? If anyone tries to sneak out, kill them directly."
Qin Feiyang quickly laid out his arrangements.
"Enjoy the cool air? If you think I’m in the way, just say so," Ren Wushuang retorted, rolling her eyes at him in annoyance. She then flew high into the sky, looking down over the scene below.
The Lion Headed Hawk also darted into Qin Feiyang’s sleeve, concealing its aura and awaiting orders.
Once Ma Cheng and Yan King were in position, Qin Feiyang took a deep breath, sent the White-Eyed Wolf into the castle, and crept quietly to the spot beneath the window.
Immediately afterwards, he leaped up forcefully and burst into Elder Lin’s room.
"Who is it!" Elder Lin instantly sensed the intrusion. He snapped his eyes open, and two fierce, cold glints of light shot from them!
"What? It’s you?" Upon clearly seeing the intruder’s face, Elder Lin immediately rose, his old face filled with astonishment and suspicion.
Qin Feiyang chuckled. "You all orchestrated such a miserable death for me. Naturally, I had to come back and pay you a visit."
"Huh?" Elder Lin’s pupils contracted. "Are you a human or a ghost?" he asked warily.
Qin Feiyang found a chair and nonchalantly sat down, looking up at Elder Lin with a grin. "You guess."
Elder Lin felt an actual shiver of apprehension!
"If you’re human, this old man will kill you again!"
"If you’re a ghost, this old man will obliterate your form and spirit, ensuring you never reincarnate!"
Murderous intent surged in Elder Lin’s eyes, and a terrifying pressure emanated from him, blanketing Qin Feiyang.
The moment the pressure engulfed him, Qin Feiyang’s face twisted, and he felt as if he were suffocating to death.
Seeing this, Elder Lin had a sudden realization and sneered, "It seems you’re not a ghost. Then this old man must see who is truly playing the phantom!"
He took a step forward, produced an Eye of Heaven Stone, grasped Qin Feiyang’s wrist, and pressed it onto the stone.
He assumed the Qin Feiyang before him was an impostor in disguise.
However, he didn’t realize that this was precisely what Qin Feiyang wanted.
It was a heaven-sent opportunity!
The instant his hand pressed Qin Feiyang’s onto the Eye of Heaven Stone, the Lion Headed Hawk, hidden in Qin Feiyang’s sleeve, shot out like a razor-sharp arrow. It streaked forth with lightning speed, heading straight for Elder Lin’s chest.
Not good!
A strong sense of crisis welled up within Elder Lin.
He certainly lived up to his cultivation!
He rapidly shifted his position.
SQUIRT!
The Lion Headed Hawk pierced through Elder Lin’s chest.
A palm-sized bloody hole instantly appeared!
Blood spurted three feet high!
But because he had taken that step, his heart was spared.
"Hmph!" He groaned in pain.
He instantly realized he’d been tricked.
Without hesitation, he turned and fled towards the window!
Qin Feiyang murmured, "A Five Star War Emperor truly is on a different level than Jia Hei or the Great Commander."
But could he escape? Impossible.
Before Elder Lin could leap out the window, Yan King and Ma Cheng, who were hiding on either side, struck simultaneously. Battle Intent surged as their attacks landed on Elder Lin’s body.
"AHH!" Elder Lin screamed in agony and was slammed back into the room.
At the same time, the Lion Headed Hawk seized the opportunity and dived in again. Its sharp talons tore open Elder Lin’s chest, crushing his heart!
THUD!
Elder Lin collapsed to the ground, his blood gushing out like a spring, staining the floorboards red.
"It hurts so much!" The excruciating pain from his shattered heart made even someone of his cultivation level howl repeatedly in agony.
But more than pain, he was utterly astounded!
Yan King and Ma Cheng are here too? And they were outside, ambushing me?
Qin Feiyang rose, lifted his right foot, and stomped on Elder Lin’s mouth. "I’m not a ghost, nor am I an impostor," he said with a smile. "Because I never died."
Elder Lin’s pupils shrank, his eyes filled with utter disbelief.
Qin Feiyang removed his foot and chuckled. "Your expression now is exactly the same as Jia Hei’s and the Great Commander’s expressions were when they saw me."
Elder Lin shook his head. "This can’t be real. I clearly saw Jiang Zhengyi kill you with my own eyes."
"Jiang Zhengyi did attack me, but he didn’t strike my heart. He did that to protect me." A deep, lingering sorrow clouded Qin Feiyang’s features.
Elder Lin growled spitefully, "Damn that Jiang Zhengyi!"
"You still dare to blame him?" Fury instantly blazed within Qin Feiyang. He viciously kicked Elder Lin’s head.
"If you hadn’t ambushed Jiang Zhengyi, would he have died?"
"He trusted you so much, yet you betrayed him! Do you have even a shred of humanity left?"
"You old bastard, today I’ll make you wish you were dead!"
Like a raging lion, Qin Feiyang straddled Elder Lin and rained furious blows upon his face, sending blood splattering everywhere!
Soon, Elder Lin’s face was a bloody, mangled mess, beaten beyond recognition!
CLANG!
Qin Feiyang then drew Blue Snow and directly hacked off Elder Lin’s four limbs.
Ultimately, Elder Lin was tortured to death by him.
As Elder Lin died, Qin Feiyang slumped to the ground, gasping heavily for air.
HUFF!
After a short while, he exhaled a long breath, got up, and looked at Elder Lin’s corpse, murmuring, "Elder Jiang, Ling Yunfei, I’ve killed all the accomplices in your deaths. Next up is Zuo An."
A glint of sinister light flashed in his eyes. He walked to the window, leaped down, and landed on the flat ground below.
The Lion Headed Hawk also flew out and perched on his shoulder.
Yan King and Ma Cheng glanced at Elder Lin’s gruesome corpse, sighed deeply, and then leaped out of the window one after another.
WHOOSH!
Yan Nanshan flew over, gripping Lin Hao in one hand and Lin Huo in the other.
"Why aren’t you dead?" Seeing the blood-soaked Qin Feiyang, both Lin Hao and Lin Huo turned deathly pale.
Yan Nanshan hovered in mid-air and threw the two men down in front of Qin Feiyang.
Qin Feiyang glanced at them and then said to Lin Hao, "Are your ’balls’ healed?"
"It was you?" Lin Hao was utterly astonished, the scene from the Treasure Pavilion involuntarily surfacing in his mind.
Qin Feiyang ignored him. With a wave of his hand, the White-Eyed Wolf appeared out of thin air. "Dispose of them as you see fit," Qin Feiyang said indifferently.
"Who are you people?"
"How dare you come to the Lin family and cause trouble!"
Just then, Lin Han came running over with a group of War Kings, carrying torches and radiating fury.
"Yan King!"
"Hall Master Ma!"
"Hall Master Yan!"
Upon seeing Yan King and the others, the group stopped abruptly in their tracks, their faces filled with surprise and suspicion.
"Family Head, look! That’s Qin Feiyang and the White-Eyed Wolf!" a burly man exclaimed, pointing at the man and the wolf, his voice filled with disbelief.
"What?"
"Aren’t they dead?"
"How can they be here?"
Lin Han and the others stared, their eyes wide with anger, their mouths agape as if they could swallow an egg.
Qin Feiyang paid them no mind. He looked up at Ren Wushuang and said, "Sister, you can come down now."
WHOOSH!
Ren Wushuang, dressed in snow-white robes, descended before Qin Feiyang, her jet-black hair fluttering, looking like a celestial fairy from the highest heavens.
Qin Feiyang waved his hand again, summoning Fatty and Lu Hong from the castle.
Subsequently, he leaned close to Ren Wushuang’s ear and whispered, "Sister, do me a favor..."
After he finished speaking, Ren Wushuang’s fine eyebrows knitted slightly.
After a moment of contemplation, she nodded gently and said to the hawk on Qin Feiyang’s shoulder, "Protect Feiyang well."
The Lion Headed Hawk chuckled. "Rest assured, Master. I won’t let this convenient little brother of yours lose a single hair."
"Be careful," Ren Wushuang reminded Qin Feiyang again.
Qin Feiyang nodded. He then looked at Ma Cheng, Yan King, and Yan Nanshan, and smiled. "It’s time to deal with the real mastermind. Let’s go! To the outskirts of the city!"
Outskirts?
The three of them were perplexed.
Shouldn’t they be going to the Treasure Pavilion?
However, they didn’t ask any further and, taking to the air, flew silently towards the outskirts of the city.
"White-Eyed Wolf, don’t rush. Wait until we start fighting Zuo An, then you make your move," Qin Feiyang secretly instructed the White-Eyed Wolf via mental transmission.
Then, the Lion Headed Hawk then carried Qin Feiyang, chasing after Yan Nanshan and the other two.
What on earth is going on?
Lin Han’s mind was a complete muddle. He glared at the White-Eyed Wolf, Ren Wushuang, and the others, roaring, "What are you doing in my Lin family? Release Lin Hao and Lin Huo at once!"
The group of War Kings behind him immediately drew their blades, ready to fight.
"Release them?" The White-Eyed Wolf stalked towards Lin Hao and Lin Huo, its verdant eyes glinting with extreme ferocity.
"Blood Eagle, go up high and keep watch. If anyone tries to leave, notify me," Ren Wushuang said, patting the Blood Eagle on her shoulder.
The Blood Eagle immediately spread its wings and soared into the sky above the Lin family, its blood-red hawk eyes as sharp as twin daggers.
HOWL!
The White-Eyed Wolf let out a ferocious howl and, opening its massive, blood-red maw, pounced on Lin Huo.
"You dare!" Lin Han’s killing intent surged.
HMPH!
However, at that moment, the imposing might of a War Emperor enveloped the entire area!
Lin Han and the others all turned to look at Ren Wushuang, their eyes filled with dread and terror.
Where on earth did Qin Feiyang find this ’sister’?
"Beast, don’t get arrogant!" Lin Huo, naturally, wouldn’t just sit there and await death. He immediately began to fight back.
At the same time, Lin Hao also scrambled up, activated his auxiliary Martial Arts Technique, and struck at the White-Eyed Wolf with a Return to Origin Palm!
However, both of them were far too naive.
How could they possibly be a match for the White-Eyed Wolf?
In less than three breaths, their heads were smashed by the White-Eyed Wolf, blood splattering everywhere!
"Hao’er!"
"Young Master!"
"Lin Huo!"
Lin Han and the others bared their teeth, their eyes wide with fury, flames of intense hatred erupting from them.
Someone shouted, "Elder Lin, come out quickly and kill them!"
Fatty folded his arms and sneered. "It’s no use. He can’t come out. Boss has already killed him."
"Elder Lin is dead?"
"I don’t believe it!"
The crowd frantically shook their heads.
Ren Wushuang flicked a slender finger. A surge of Battle Intent shot out, flew into the window, wrapped around Elder Lin’s corpse, and brought it out.
THUD!
The corpse landed in front of Lin Han and the others.
The group was instantly dumbstruck; their torches and weapons clattered to the ground.
Ren Wushuang said indifferently, "From now on, I will kill anyone who dares to move."
Her words struck the Lin family members as if they had plunged into a bottomless abyss. A profound fear, like a relentless tide, completely submerged them.
