The Prodigies War

Yao Qing laughed again. “Of course, my lord said that if you showed up here alone it proves that the villagers of Feiyun Village are extremely important to you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t dare to take such a risk.”

After a pause, he continued triumphantly, “So, if you still care about the lives of the villagers, do as we say and follow us.” His voice was filled with a sense of superiority.

As Yao Qing was speaking, he turned around and walked through the side door in the hall. When he reappeared, he was carrying an unconscious middle-aged man.

This middle-aged man had dark, rough skin. He was big-boned and was cloaked in an old animal skin coat. From one glance, he was clearly a villager who often worked long hours in the fields.

Uncle Tie Shan!

Lin Xun lost his composure, and his chest tightened.

When Lin Xun first arrived in Feiyun Village, the first villager he met was Tie Shan. He still remembered how the older man had been sitting in the aeth fields with a troubled look on his face.

He still remembered him dancing with joy and excitement when he helped him eradicate the infestation of worms in his aeth fields.

He was a simple, honest, and friendly middle-aged man. Lin Xun wouldn’t have integrated into Feiyun Village so quickly if not for him.

However, he was now unconscious, in the enemy’s hands, and his life was at risk!

Yao Qing sharply sensed the change in Lin Xun’s emotion and couldn’t help but chuckle in satisfaction. “Look, he’s one of the villagers you care about the most. I believe you now realize that we haven’t deceived you. The other villagers are now settled in Qingfeng County. I can’t imagine you making another choice than to go there with us.”

Yu Canglin’s eyes lit up with surprise. He never expected Yao Tuohai to come up with such a comprehensive strategy. It was like an inescapable net and left Lin Xun with no room to struggle out!

He had made many arrangements and plans to deal with Lin Xun. His shrewdness and abilities were too terrifying!

Lin Xun was silent. The moment he saw Tie Shan, he knew that the worst had happened.

He wasn’t surprised, but…

Indescribable anger and hatred were fermenting in his heart like a volcano on the verge of erupting.

In the depths of his black eyes seemed to be an unfathomable abyss surfacing, and a chilling storm was gathering within them.

Yu Canglin’s entire body suddenly froze and a shiver ran down his spine. He sensed frightening, stifling, killing intent coming from Lin Xun.

He…

How can he be so strong?

Yu Canglin’s heart trembled. Three years ago, in his eyes, Lin Xun was as worthless as a blade of grass, but now, the youth could suffocate him and make him tremble with his aura alone.

Shua!

While Yu Canglin was distracted, Lin Xun made a move. He took a step forward and clutched Yao Qing’s neck with lightning speed.

The terrifying murderous intent was like a peerless sharp blade. It made Yao Qing’s face deathly pale and his eyes wide with fear.

“You...you dare to kill here? Do you know that if you kill me, those villagers will also pay in blood!” Yao Qing screamed, trying hard to calm himself down.

Crack—

Lin Xun ignored him. He tightly gripped his victim’s neck with his right hand while he crushed the man’s arm and shoulder blade with his left like a pair of iron pincers. Inch by inch, flesh exploded one after another into a shower of blood, and the cloying smell of blood saturated the atmosphere.

Yao Qing let out a blood-curdling scream and struggled frantically, but he couldn’t break free, let alone stop Lin Xun.

From beginning to end, Lin Xun’s expression never changed once.

The method he used had a resounding name in Blood Kill Camp: Scarlet Falls. It was a type of torture that used precise strength to crush the enemy’s body inch by inch, and the splattering of blood rained down like a waterfall.

During the process, the victim must be kept conscious and feel the agonizing pain of every inch of their body being crushed. This was to bring pain to their sight, ears, and soul.

If the enemy died before the torture was over, that meant they were not good enough and hadn’t grasped the essence of Scarlet Falls. The Blood Kill Camp instructors would laugh at them if they learned about it.

Of course, such cruel torture was generally used on the Darkness Race, but Lin Xun used it on Yao Qing.

Naturally, Lin Xun’s mastery of Scarlet Falls was superb.

Under the guidance of Xiaoke and Xiaoman, he had endured the bloody stench and slaughtered countless beasts before he grasped the essence of this torture.

If the instructors of Blood Kill Camp saw him torture Yao Qing, they would be amazed by his amazing skills.

It was like art!

But it was an art of a bloody and cruel nature. Ordinary people would be scared out of their wits and faint if they saw the process in person.

In the empty underground hall, scarlet flesh and blood rained like a waterfall, accompanied by shrill, blood-curdling screams.

Under Lin Xun’s precise control, Yao Qing wouldn’t lose consciousness or die!

Yu Canglin stared, aghast at the sight, his chest heaving up and down. It was as though he was witnessing an executioner from hell using an extremely cruel method of torture.

His face blanched, and his body became soaked in cold sweat. He couldn’t help but shudder violently and almost vomited.

As a Spirit Sea expert of the older generation, Yu Canglin was knowledgeable and experienced, but when he saw such a bloody scene, he finally realized there truly was something worse than death!

What frightened him the most was that Lin Xun’s expression had remained unchanged from beginning to end.

It was also at that moment that he realized something. Unconsciously, he gave up on all thoughts of saving Yao Qing!

He didn’t even dare to look directly at Lin Xun...

……

In the end, Yao Qing was kept alive, but it was no different from death.

He had lost all limbs like a tree with all its branches cut off. He was crippled and only faint consciousness remained.

“I’m sorry, I lost control of my murderous rage and I needed to vent,” Lin Xun suddenly said.

Yao Qing’s eyes were lifeless, and his face was deathly pale to the point of becoming transparent. His entire body was shrouded in a gloomy aura of despair.

“You...you will die...” His lips quivered with anger and his weak but resentful voice seemed to be squeezed out from his chest.

“Actually, you are very pitiful. Since Yao Tuohai sent you here, it means you are just cannon fodder like the Wu Clan. To them, it doesn’t matter whether you die or live.”

Lin Xun said indifferently, “If I killed you now, do you think Yao Tuohai will kill all the villagers in Feiyun Village for you? No way, he needs to use those villagers to threaten me. He wouldn’t do that until he sees me.”

Yao Qing’s lips trembled with emotion. He glowered maliciously at Lin Xun as though he refused to believe him.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to admit it. Sometimes the truth is too cruel and you don’t know what to do. Maybe you will feel better when you die.”

Lin Xun’s voice was soft and calm like he was chatting with an old friend. But Yu Canglin felt his blood freeze like he had fallen into an ice cave when he heard it.

That young man looks gentle, warm and harmless. Who would have thought that beneath his skin is a bloodthirsty devil?

“You will also die, and die a worse death than mine!” Yao Qing roared at the top of his voice, and his face flushed strangely. It was unknown where the power came from.

But before his voice faded, he went stiff like he had drained all his life force.

“Is that right?”

Lin Xun smiled as he gently ran his hands over Yao Qing’s eyelids and said, “I’m sorry, you’re just an errand boy. I really shouldn’t have tortured you just now. Rest in peace and hope you don’t become cannon fodder in your next life...”

Yao Qing’s eyes almost popped out from anger. He took his last breath and died.

Lin Xun slowly got up and looked at Yu Canglin in the distance.

Yu Canglin shuddered and said with an ashen face, “Are you not worried that if Yao Tuohai is angered, he will kill some of the villagers to scare you?”

Lin Xun asked in response, “Do you think Yao Tuohai will let me live if I go to Qingfeng County?”

Yu Canglin fell silent.

Lin Xun continued, “Then I’ll ask you again. If I die, will Yao Tuohai let those villagers go?”

Yu Canglin kept quiet. Impossible, to cover up the fact he killed Lin Xun, he would slaughter all the villagers!

”Since that's the case, it’s useless for me to worry.”

Lin Xun’s expression was of utmost calm, and there wasn’t a ripple of emotion. But the more he was like that, the more terrified Yu Canglin felt.

“What are you going to do with me?” Yu Canglin’s voice was low and gloomy. He knew that he had to face the problem now.

“You may be exempt from the death penalty, but not from punishment!”

After a while, Lin Xun crouched down, carried the unconscious Tie Shan on his back and left the underground hall.

From beginning to end, he ignored Yu Canglin. He was already old and lacked the courage or strength to even resist, so he couldn’t possibly stir up any waves.

Donglin City was bustling and crowded with people and traffic.

No one was aware that all the leaders of the Wu Clan had died violently, and no one knew that Yu Canglin, the renowned principal of Donglin Academy, had become a cripple.

On the periphery of Donglin City, the rune shuttle that was destined for Qingfeng County had already left.

However, there was an old and ordinary jeweled ship waiting there. When Lin Xun arrived with Tie Shan, the ship immediately took the two and soared into the air.

The jeweled ship seemed old and ordinary, but it traveled at an incredible speed and vanished into the sky!
