The thirteen burly men were momentarily stunned, and the onlookers were also surprised, seemingly astonished by Li Lin's tone and boldness.
"Ha ha..."
Just after the thirteen burly men were stunned, they exchanged glances and burst into uproarious laughter. The one who had spoken, apparently the leader, shook his thick arm and said, "You milk-nosed kid, you misspoke. Now, I'll give you a chance. Cut off your own tongue, and I'll let you live. Otherwise, I'll chop you into eighteen pieces..."
"Whoosh!"
Before the burly man could finish his sentence, he suddenly clutched his throat, only to see a blazing finger imprint approaching like lightning. Without time to react, his neck instantly felt searing hot, followed by difficulty breathing, and a blood hole burst from the back of his neck.
"If that's the case, then all of you can die." Li Lin's eyes suddenly flashed with a murderous intent. As he spoke, the true qi under his feet vibrated, and with a flash of an air swirl, his figure vanished on the spot like a ghost.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Few could see Li Lin's figure clearly. All the onlookers could see were strings of ghost-like afterimages and a series of blazing finger imprints, like lightning sweeping through the space, accompanied by the whistling sound of breaking wind.
"He's a powerful one, run for it."
"Bang bang bang..."
A series of sonic booms followed. By the time the burly men regained their senses, their faces filled with horror, each of their necks had, unsurprisingly, a finger imprint blood hole.
With the blood holes bursting open, sixteen bodies subsequently fell to the ground. Among the crowd, there were also three figures who fell, each with a charred blood hole in the center of their forehead, having been part of the group that harassed the two exceptionally beautiful women.
On the ground, sixteen bodies, sixteen blood holes still oozing fresh blood. The thirteen burly men, not one escaped; some were killed before they could even flee two meters.
Seeing this scene, everyone around was suddenly terrified. It turns out that this young man was such a terrifying powerhouse. Sixteen people were killed in the blink of an eye.
"Hmph, serves you right for seeking death." Yun Hongling coldly snorted, and instantly, a long whip appeared in her hand, whipping around like a spirit snake emerging from its hole.
"Snap snap snap..."
A series of sonic booms sounded, instantly decapitating several heads from bodies, with blood flowing everywhere.
"Whew!" Everyone around took a sharp breath of cold air, realizing that this exceptionally beautiful girl was so ruthlessly vicious. The unlucky men today had provoked these two calamities.
"It's alright, Hongling, don't dirty your hands." Li Lin retracted his true qi and spoke indifferently to Yun Hongling, looking at the corpses on the ground, he let out a slight breath, his expression unchanging. Two at the first level of Martial Soul, one at the second level, along with a dozen Martial Masters. With such strength, it was effortless for him to kill them without any difficulty.
"Hmph, if it were in Yunyang Sect, I would have had their entire families executed to quell the anger in my heart." Yun Hongling retracted her whip, angrily said.
"Alright, Hongling, they're dead now, let it go, don't be angry anymore." Li Wushuang slightly smiled, her eyebrows furrowing. Killing these people didn't make her feel any remorse, but the smell of blood was displeasing to her.
Seeing this scene, those who were previously eyeing the two women greedily, immediately shifted their gaze, feeling a chill in their hearts, no longer daring to look at the two women again, fearing the same fate would befall them.
"Who is causing trouble here during the Three Sects and Four Gates conference?" At that moment, the crowd automatically parted to create a path, as more than twenty disciples from the Tianjian Gate, wearing armor and carrying long swords on their backs, walked in angrily, looking at the bodies on the ground, then at Li Lin and the two women.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
"Did you three kill these people?" A leading disciple of the Tianjian Gate stepped forward, sensing the extraordinary aura of the trio, not like ordinary people, his attitude softened a bit.
"Yes, I killed them." Li Lin said indifferently, giving the Tianjian Gate youth a look. With the strength of a first-level Martial General, he was already very strong, probably an older disciple of the Tianjian Gate, or someone similar to the law enforcement team of Yunyang Sect.
"During the Three Sects and Four Gates conference, any killing is forbidden. Who are you? Please come with us." The youth's expression slightly hardened as he looked at the trio.
"Hmph, how dare the Tianjian Gate." Yun Hongling snorted disdainfully, instantly pulling out a jade token and said, "The grand Tianjian Gate, to think that even a simple stroll by this young lady is not peaceful. When I see your sect leader, I will ask him how Tianjian City can be so chaotic, shame on the Tianjian Gate for being one of the Three Sects and Four Gates."
"So, you are friends from Yunyang Sect. We apologize for the disturbance. This matter, I will investigate thoroughly." The leading youth, seeing the jade token in Yun Hongling's hand, quickly apologized, knowing very well that with the people coming to the Tianjian Gate recently, seeing the trio's young age, they were likely direct disciples participating in the Three Sects and Four Gates conference, with high statuses, who could not be offended.
At this time, allowing disciples from the other Three Sects and Four Gates to encounter trouble in Tianjian City would greatly affect the reputation of the Tianjian Gate.
"Are you still taking us back?" Li Lin asked the youth in front of him indifferently.
"Dare not, please feel free. If you encounter any inconvenience, feel free to inform us." The youth no longer dared to take the trio back, having just heard that the sect leader of Yunyang Sect had arrived at the Tianjian Gate. Taking these three back would likely spell trouble for himself.
"Then we'll be leaving." Li Lin lightly said, leading the two women to slowly depart.
"Those are the scoundrels from the Tianlang Gang, pass the word. From now on, if you see disciples from the Tianlang Gang, kill without mercy. To dare cause trouble during the Three Sects and Four Gates conference, they're seeking death."
As Li Lin and the two women left, the leading youth of the Tianjian Gate angrily commanded behind them.
"So, those three were from Yunyang Sect, probably direct disciples participating in the Three Sects and Four Gates conference. Now the Tianlang Gang is in trouble, provoking anyone but had to provoke people from Yunyang Sect."
"The Tianlang Gang deserved it. They should have been more cautious recently. The Tianjian Gate is cracking down hard. This time, they truly sought their own death."
The onlookers discussed among themselves, their gazes following the distant figures of the trio, many secretly relieved not to have provoked them.
"Hmph, I was in a good mood before, but now I've lost all interest." Yun Hongling pouted, still somewhat angry.
"It's alright, Hongling, they're all dead, you don't need to be angry anymore." Li Wushuang comforted Yun Hongling softly.
"How was your shopping? Do you want to go back now?" Li Lin asked the two women gently.
"I wanted to browse more, but now I'm not in the mood." Yun Hongling replied softly, "Let's go back. The day after tomorrow is the Three Sects and Four Gates conference, we should prepare well. This time, our Yunyang Sect must break into the top three."
"Let's go." Li Lin said lightly, having browsed enough, the trio then turned to head back.
"Eh..." A moment later, as they passed through a street, the bustling crowd seemed to be gathered around something.
"Little thief, let's go have a look, there might be something exciting to see." Yun Hongling, who was just a bit downhearted, suddenly perked up again.
"Be careful." Li Lin hadn't finished speaking when the wilful girl had already bounced ahead.
Li Lin, with no choice, exchanged glances with Li Wushuang, and followed.
"Junior sister, take a look at this, it's millennium crystal jade. If it's made into a piece of jewelry, it would be very beautiful."
Inside a shop selling weapons, pills, and herbs, there was a crowd gathered because there was a woman inside that could make any normal man bleed from the nose at a glance.
This woman was dressed too provocatively, and any normal man couldn't help but take a few more looks. At this moment, the provocative woman was selecting something inside the shop, even the shop assistants were struggling to keep their nosebleeds in check.
A young man in white luxurious clothes was following the woman, holding a piece of expensive transparent crystal jade, eagerly trying to please her, his eyes also occasionally sweeping over the woman's provocative figure.
"Senior brother, I don't really like this millennium crystal jade, let's go." The provocative woman paid no attention to the gazes around her and slowly walked out.
"Wow, I thought there was something exciting to see, but it turns out to be just looking at a woman." Yun Hongling squeezed into the crowd, and upon seeing that the people were only watching a provocatively dressed woman inside a shop, she was greatly disappointed. However, her gaze also swept over the woman a few times, finding the woman's dress too provocative, making even women want to take a few more looks.
"Hongling, be careful. Let's go back," said Li Wushuang and Li Lin, who also arrived beside Yun Hongling.
Li Lin's gaze also landed on the provocatively dressed woman being watched by everyone. Seeing that enchanting and provocative figure, Li Lin's expression changed, murmuring, "It's her, Lan Ling..."
