The Prodigies War

Chapter 1002 Seeking Help and Revenge

Ling Hongjin's legs were long yet curvy in the right places while her smooth and creamy skin resembled milky jade. There were soul-stirring curves on every section, from the ankles, to the knees, and finally to the waist.

Her waist was likewise slim and lithe, and further up...a blue cloth was snugly wrapped around her large bosoms.

At the moment, she no longer looked like a prided lady of Heaven Axis Holy Land who stood above numerous cultivators, but a lamb that had been stripped naked.

"You will die a tortuous death of a thousand cuts!" Her beautiful face was flushed with fury and her eyes were filled with bone-cutting hatred.

"If such a day comes, I will ensure that you will be the first to lose your dignity in front of the world." In the end, Lin Xun didn't completely strip her naked.

He rose to his feet, grabbed her by the torso, and slung her over his shoulder.

He felt her abruptly stiffen and tense. This made Lin Xun realize that she was still struggling intensely and had yet to give up.

"What a big ass. I wonder if people will nickname you 'big ass prided lady' when they see you." Lin Xun smiled as he flew off into the distance.

"You deserve to die!" Ling Hongjin was so ashamed and angry that she wished she would die and tried to bite Lin Xun’s shoulder.

However, she screamed in pain a split second later. His shoulder was protected by his cultivation so she almost broke her neat, white teeth.

Piak!

Lin Xun raised his hand and slapped her buttocks. "Behave!"

The sharp and burning pain spreading from such an embarrassing place nearly made Ling Hongjin go crazy. She felt aggrieved and angry, sorely wishing she could peel off his flesh bit by bit and eat him alive.

He was simply horrible!

She was a core disciple of Heaven Axis Holy Land possessing unmatched talent and peerless beauty. She was akin to the bright moon in the sky who was always surrounded by admirers. When had she ever suffered such humiliation?

"You beast, you won't have a good death in the future!"

Lin Xun was still savoring the sensation from his palm. He offhandedly remarked, "It’s not only big, but also soft and bouncy."

"......" Ling Hongjin's eyes widened, feeling as if there were ten thousand horses galloping past in her heart. He was more than shameless and was an unscrupulous, lecherous bastard! He deserves death by a thousand cuts!

She began to panic and threatened, "My fiancé is Chu Beihai. If he finds out about this, your fate will be death!"

"Noted."

"My master is a sixth longevity tribulation King expert of Heaven Axis Holy Land!"

"Noted."

"I..."

"Noted."

No matter what Ling Hongjin said, Lin Xun remained nonchalant and not the least bit afraid. This hastened the collapse of her composure.

Lin Xun indifferently said, "To be honest, if you are so confident in Heaven Axis Holy Land, wouldn’t there be nothing wrong with telling me some information? At the end of the day, you're scared."

"I'm not afraid of death, so why would I be scared of you?" Ling Hongjin's voice sounded as if it was being squeezed through her teeth.

She was being carried by Lin Xun on his shoulder, wearing mere inches of cloth that was barely able to cover her private parts.

Her entire body was rigid, and she felt deep shame and anger. She was also worried about what to do if they encountered other travelers on the road.

"There's a city a few hundred miles ahead, and there's only four hours left until dawn. This will be your last chance, so think about it carefully."

Lin Xun left these words and became silent.

However, his calm attitude made Ling Hongjin realize that he was serious. He would definitely do what he said!

For a time, her heart churned incessantly as she inwardly struggled. It was the worst torture she had ever experienced.

She had never felt such humiliation and shame in her life. She was unable to even slit her neck and commit suicide and had no choice but to make a decision.

……

Dawn gradually approached as the mountains and forests in the vicinity began to thin out.

Even Ling Hongjin could tell that it wouldn’t be long before a city inevitably appeared on the horizon.

The thought of being hung naked on the city gates where ten thousand people could see her caused the last sliver of resistance to finally collapse.

"They're at Xuanmu City. The person in charge of the operation is..."

In a hollow and numb voice, Ling Hongjin finally caved in and gave some information she knew.

Towards the end, her eyes turned dull and gray as if she had lost her soul.

Lin Xun took out a set of clothes and covered Ling Hongjin. He couldn’t help but sigh at the sight of the other party in such a state, ''You shouldn’t have been so stubborn earlier."

Ling Hongjin was silent.

"Don't worry, today's matter will be solely between us. I’m a man of my word and will let you off."

With these words, he disappeared into the vastness of the night, leaving Ling Hongjin alone.

After standing there for a long time, Ling Hongjin seemed to recover somewhat as a slight shine returned to her originally full eyes.

She felt her power gradually returning.

"The day will come when I will personally kill you, you evil demon!"

She gnashed her teeth in anger before yanking off the clothes draped over her body in disgust and ruthlessly burning them to ashes.

Wisps of divine flames began to appear and swirl around her, transforming into a layer of clothing to cover her naked body. It was at this very moment that she regained her previous proud and confident appearance.

"Unfortunately for you, no matter how cunning you thought you were, you couldn't possibly have realized that all the information I told you was false!" She inwardly laughed, filled with the exhilaration of at least getting some revenge.

After which, she set off and flew away.

Swish!

Not long after Ling Hongjin left, Lin Xun suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"From how she recovered so quickly, she clearly faked her despair earlier. From the changes in her expression, although it might not all have been fake, there’s definitely some part of it that wasn’t genuine..."

Lin Xun pondered as he stealthily followed.

What was the first thing someone would do after a near-death encounter?

Seek help?

Revenge?

Or maybe both.

In Lin Xun's opinion, Ling Hongjin likely hated him to the bone and probably couldn't wait to take revenge.

To achieve this, it was first necessary to seek help.

Lin Xun was looking forward to seeing what Ling Hongjin would do next.

As for the information she had given earlier, it didn’t matter whether it was real or not

Because since the beginning, Lin Xun had no intention of fishing for any information from her!

……

Ling Hongjin was very cautious and careful and would suddenly change directions from time to time. She even occasionally made a few detours before moving forward.

This made Lin Xun, who was tailing her, even more convinced that she was up to something!

It wasn't until dawn broke and the night faded that the outline of a giant city appeared on the horizon.

Ling Hongjin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at the sight of the city. She turned her head to gaze at the route she had come from as a look of deep hatred appeared on her beautiful face.

"Just you wait!" She tightly clenched her fists before she turned back and headed toward the giant ancient city. Lin Xun was initially startled, thinking that he had been discovered.

Fortunately, it was just him overthinking. Ling Hongjin's actions clearly carried a hint of cathartic release.

"North Light City...could this be where the Heaven Axis Holy Land disciples were dispatched to?"

Lin Xun pondered as he advanced toward the city.

……

In North Light City’s southwestern district, a group of Heaven Axis Holy Land disciples in their iconic starfrost robes were currently gathered at a grand-looking building.

Nangong Huo and Gu Yunting were also present.

Among the huge group in the hall, three individuals especially stood out. Each of them was surrounded by a sizable group like the stars gathered around the moon.

The trio consisted of two men and a woman. The starfrost robes they wore were imprinted with a golden star insignia that represented the core disciples of Heaven Axis Holy Land.

Like Li Zhannan and Ling Hongjin, they were the supreme heaven prides who had been sent to capture or kill Lin Xun!

Suddenly, one of the core disciples frowned and said, "What's going on? The target is approaching us! Could Li Zhannan and Ling Hongjin have arrived a step late and allowed the target to escape?"

It was a man with long, blond hair and a tall, dignified figure. He was named Xue Qianhen and was highly ranked even among the core disciples.

He was currently holding a Yin Yang Spirit Locking Mirror, which had originally been in the possession of Nangong Huo.

"What is it?" Everyone else was stunned by the outburst and looked over.

A gray-robed youth smiled and remarked, "Interesting, to think that even the likes of Li Zhannan would fail. It’s truly surprising."

His long hair was unkempt, and his appearance was slovenly and casual. His name was Zhang Zheng, and he was also a core disciple.

"I wouldn’t consider it a failure yet. Li Zhannan and Ling Hongjin are more than enough to deal with a supreme heaven pride. As Senior Brother Xue Qianhen said, this must have happened because the target managed to sense something was amiss and escape in advance."

The speaker was a young lady dressed in pretty clothes with a sweet-looking face. She was more on the petite side and exuded an astonishing charm. Every little movement she made carried a natural seductive aura that grabbed the heart.

Her name was Yu Baobao.

"Hehe, allowing the target to escape should still be considered a failure. If it was me, Demon God Lin would have been slain long ago!" Zhang Zheng lazily claimed. Although his tone was casual, his words gave off an unconcealable arrogance.

Yu Baobao smiled and retorted, "Keep bragging."

The other Heaven Axis Holy Land disciples were silent.

It was a conversation between the three core disciples which they weren’t qualified to partake in.

"Putting that aside, what I don't understand is why the target is approaching us. Is it unintentional or intentional?" Xue Qianhen frowned.

"It’s simple. He must be unlucky and fled here in a panic. If he knew we were here, he wouldn’t dare to run to his death even if he was a thousand times more courageous." Zhang Zheng snorted.

Several people couldn't help but laugh. They agreed with Zhang Zheng.

What prey would be stupid enough to run into a hunter's territory? Wasn’t this a death wish?

"It's called fate. The target can only blame himself for being unlucky!"

Zhang Zheng stretched his muscles as an intimidating aura suddenly replaced his originally lazy look. ''Previously, Li Zhannan and Ling Hongjin managed to beat us to the punch. However, they were unlucky, and the target managed to evade them. Since the target is rushing right into our arms, you guys better not snatch him from me. It’s my turn to take the spotlight!"

His resounding words were accompanied by an alarming killing intent, causing many people to involuntarily shiver.
