Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword
Chapter 453 - 437: Lin Family (3/3)

Chapter 453: Chapter 437: Lin Family (3/3)

"Hahaha, young man, do you know the saying, ’Disaster comes from the mouth’?" the middle-aged man from the Lin Family said ominously.

The Lin Family is the number one wealthy family in Diyuan Country, with not just one, but three Nascent Soul Old Ancestors sitting at its helm! Thus, the descendants of the Lin Family could naturally walk with their heads held high. Who would dare to provoke them?

The middle-aged man from the Lin Family was called Lin Heyue. Although he only possessed the cultivation level of Mountains and Rivers Realm, in Diyuan Country even experts of the Spirit Sea Realm had to lower their heads in his presence, and there were female martial artists of the Spirit Sea Realm who had been brought to his bed and played with at his will!

Why?

Because he was a clansman of the Lin Family, his father was a core disciple of the family, and his grandfather was one of the three great Nascent Soul Realm Old Ancestors of the family!

Isn’t that enough to be arrogant?

Slap!

Just then, Zhou Heng’s hand moved and deftly delivered a solid slap to Lin Heyue’s cheek.

It was crisp and loud!

Spurt, Hong Tianfeng, who had just managed to get up, immediately toppled back down.

It was over, over. That Brother Zhou was too reckless. That was someone from the Lin Family! To slap the other party was like stirring up a hornet’s nest and bringing endless trouble upon oneself!

No good, they had to escape before the Lin Family’s experts arrived!

Hong Tianfeng hurriedly got up again and said, "Brother Zhou, let’s run!"

"Run? You still want to run!" Lin Heyue, covering half of his swollen face that was disfigured beyond recognition, looked as ferocious and terrifying as a ghoul. "You hit me and still want to run? Where do you think you can escape to?"

"Brother Zhou—" Hong Tianfeng was nearly in tears. You’ve already hit the man, so why stand there as if rooted to the ground? Do you really think it wasn’t satisfying enough and you want to slap him a couple more times?

He was a man of loyalty, but who said a man of loyalty had to be fearless in the face of death? He had no desire to die yet!

Zhou Heng gave a faint smile and said, "Don’t worry, no matter who comes, I can keep you safe."

That was a big truth. Until the Star Core revealed itself, none of the owners of the Four Great Death Places would appear in the world. Who on earth could suppress someone of his caliber, a Physique Heavenly Venerate? Furthermore, he was not far from breaking through to the Spiritual Power level of Divinity Transformation Realm. Once he crossed into that realm, what would he have to fear from the owners of the Four Great Death Places?

"How presumptuous!" Lin Heyue coldly said. After so much time had passed, he had gradually come to his senses. Since the other party could so effortlessly slap him, the other’s strength must surely be at the level of the Spiritual Sea Realm!

In another situation, if he, Lin Heyue, had been hit by a Spiritual Sea Realm Expert, as long as it wasn’t fatal, the family wouldn’t care much because they would not mobilize the family’s Old Ancestors for a minor figure like him!

But now, for the inheritance of the Great Eternal Emperor, all three of the family’s Old Ancestors had been mobilized. Wasn’t this young man just walking into the line of fire by being so arrogant?

He was no match, but what he needed to do was to send a signal to summon the family’s experts.

"Really rash!" Zhou Heng sighed. Such minor characters were not really in his consideration, but why insist on seeking death? However, if they were determined on a death-wish, he wasn’t one to hesitate to act!

He pointed a finger, and pop, Lin Heyue’s head burst open on the spot, splattering blood and brain matter everywhere, a disgustingly gory scene.

"Urgh—" Hong Tianfeng instantly went dark in the eyes, nearly passing out.

A murder! They killed someone from the Lin Family! What were they to do? They were done for, weren’t they? He really wanted to have confidence in Zhou Heng, but how strong could Zhou Heng be, really, a man in his twenties?

Zhou Heng, with a mere thought, could kill without trace, and the finger-pointing was actually done for Hong Tianfeng, to boost the man’s confidence. But who could have expected it to backfire and leave Hong Tianfeng scared to the point of nearly fainting?

He couldn’t help but shake his head. With another thought, pop, pop, pop, the four subordinates Lin Heyue had brought with him had their heads explode simultaneously, dead in an instant.

By now, Hong Tianfeng was numb to it all, but a strange thought emerged in his heart: killing one was breaking even, killing two was a gain! There were only two of them but they killed five of the enemy. Didn’t they gain three more?

"Donkey, take out any treasures you have and break this restriction to get inside!" Zhou Heng turned to the Black Donkey and said, it was high time the crafty donkey stopped pretending.

The Black Donkey sighed regretfully. Hong Tianfeng was really no fun; he was frightened so quickly. The donkey couldn’t keep pretending if it might make Zhou Heng a laughing stock, so it stood up on two legs, wiggled its flower-dress-covered butt, and said with a pout, "This is a restriction set by the Great Eternal Emperor himself. Even if the Mysterious Venerate were to come back to life, he might not have a way to break it!"

The Great Eternal Emperor was not just any Heavenly Venerate, but at the very least a Two Tribulations Quasi-Immortal. If Heavenly Venerate Xuanying was merely an ordinary Divinity Transformation Expert, he certainly wouldn’t be able to break a restriction placed by a Two Tribulations Quasi-Immortal.

With a crafty glint in its eye, the donkey added, "However, you’re a descendent of the Great Emperor, so this restriction will definitely recognize your bloodline! Come on, cut your wrist open, sprinkle some fresh blood on it, and the restriction will surely open for you!"

"You good-for-nothing donkey with sores on your head and pus on your feet, can’t you speak human language without dying?"

"Pah, I am the Heaven-descended Divine Donkey, why the hell would I speak human?"

Man and donkey looked at each other, deciding not to continue their swearing match. Both knew the other had incredibly thick skin, and verbal jabs would achieve nothing. It was better to think about how to get through the restriction.

"Ah—" Just as they took a break, Hong Tianfeng suddenly leaped up, his face full of shock, pointing at the Black Donkey and stammering, "Donkey, donkey, the donkey can can can can speak—"

"Are you tired or something!" Black Donkey said with an annoyed face, "What’s so great about me talking, do you want to admire me standing up and peeing?"

Hong Tianfeng immediately felt as if his whole world had collapsed. A donkey that could talk was already one of the world’s great miracles, calling it a Divine Donkey was not an exaggeration. But such an unrefined and indecent Divine Donkey? Standing up to pee?

Zhou Heng burst into laughter and said, "Brother Hong, don’t bother with this shameless donkey that treats acting cheap as his daily bread!"

"Zhou, are you itching for a kick in the butt?" Black Donkey looked indignant and insulted.

Looking at the exchange of insults between the man and the donkey, Hong Tianfeng was completely numb and didn’t know what to say. However, he didn’t have to worry about that for too long, as whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, he saw more than a dozen figures leaping towards them, one of whom was the young man from the Lin Family who had been doused by Black Donkey’s hot urine.

The young man’s name was Lin Yue, and like Lin Tianyue, he held a high position in the Lin Family. His father was a Spiritual Sea Realm Expert, and his grandfather was the second Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor of the Lin Family, a dandy who could walk sideways with his high status.

He had suffered a great loss at the hands of Black Donkey, as if he had been scorned by a courtesan without paying. How could he swallow this insult? As soon as his father arrived, he immediately started searching the mountains for Zhou Heng and Black Donkey.

Finally... they found them!

"Dad, it’s them... who humiliated me!" Lin Yue said anxiously, but he misspoke again.

Lin Yue’s father, Lin Qianhu, was extraordinarily talented and had reached the Third Layer Heaven of the Spirit Sea, but there was still a long way to go before becoming a deity. The difference between mere mortals and Half-Step Immortals was as wide as the heavens and the earth, and it was not an easy step to take!

"This is——" Lin Qianhu wasn’t blinded by hatred like Lin Yue. He first looked at the five headless corpses on the ground and through the connection in the bloodline, he could tell that one of them was a descendant of his lineage!

Then looking at their clothes and ornaments, he couldn’t help but feel shocked and furious. He bellowed angrily, "You, you killed He Yue!"

"What deal? When I want to kill, I don’t care about any damn deal!" Black Donkey curled his lips and turned to Zhou Heng, "Since the restriction can’t be opened right now, let’s just play with them!"

"Whatever!" Zhou Heng shrugged.

"Bastards!" Lin Qianhu was enraged. These two had killed a member of his Lin Family and dared to be so dismissive? What kind of situation was the Lin Family in? The number one magnate of Diyuan Country!

It could be said that when the Lin Family became angry, the entire Diyuan Country would bleed!

"Zhou, leave this to me!" Black Donkey always picked on the weak and feared the strong, and since Lin Qianhu was only a Spirit Sea Realm being, what was there to be afraid of? It immediately dashed forward, racing on all four hooves.

"Seeking death!" Although Lin Qianhu found it strange that a donkey could talk, and was extremely cheeky at that, his anger overwhelmed his curiosity. He shot out a palm strike, pressing down towards Black Donkey.

Pfft!

Black Donkey, like a giant boulder crashing into a sapling, knocked Lin Qianhu straight to the ground, while a donkey’s rear end perfectly settled on his face.

Seeing this scene, everyone was utterly shocked!

What on earth was happening!

Lin Qianhu was a Third Layer Heaven of the Spirit Sea Realm being!

To suppress him this easily, didn’t it mean that Black Donkey was a Nascent Soul Realm being?

Hiss!

Although recently, there had been frequent appearances of Divinity Transformation Realm Experts, and even Heavenly Venerates seemed to have depreciated, the world still had only so few Half-Step Immortals, and each of them was a remarkable figure!

Otherwise, how could the Lin Family boast and be proud if it only had three Nascent Soul Realm old ancestors?

"This human cushion isn’t bad. I’m considering whether I should bring a few with me when I go out in the future!" Black Donkey even twisted its buttocks to get more comfortable.

Hong Tianfeng finally got over his shock. It turned out the two friends he had just made were so powerful. He immediately stopped worrying and started to enjoy the show from the side.

"Sir, my son has offended you gravely. I’ll apologize on his behalf. Please, let us go!" Lin Qianhu’s somewhat muffled voice came from under Black Donkey’s buttocks. Having suffered such a great disgrace and still having to offer a forced apology, he was so ashamed and angry he wanted to bash his head in!

But there was no other way, for the one above him was a Nascent Soul Realm old ancestor. If he was killed on a whim, whom could he complain to?

Black Donkey chuckled wickedly and said, "I’m a bit hungry. I wonder if I should go for steamed or braised, though the taste of barbecued meat is not bad either!"

Seeing the donkey eyeballing him while speaking, Lin Qianhu couldn’t help but panic; after all, the donkey was a Demon Beast, and it wouldn’t be strange if it ate human flesh.

His complexion turned increasingly pale, his face twisted with fear.

"Your Excellency, my son has been offensive, and I will apologize for him. Please release him!" A vague and ethereal voice suddenly sounded.

Upon hearing this voice, all members of the Lin Family showed a look of elation. It was one of their three Nascent Soul Realm old ancestors, Lin Yuhua. With this old ancestor arriving, there was nothing to worry about (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian. Your support is my greatest motivation.
