Chapter 1149: Chapter 1169: No Matter How Much It Takes, It’s Worth It If I Can Kill You!_1

Lin Chen looked up, sizing up the uninvited guest in front of him.

A middle-aged man with a square face, a stern expression, and sharp eyes like a knife, staring intently at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen blinked, "What’s the matter?"

The middle-aged man spoke coldly, "Human Emperor, are you always so careless when you’re out?"

Lin Chen’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, subconsciously trying to activate his spiritual energy, only to find it fluctuating slightly before going still.

The Dantian was like a stagnant pond, with an invisible force blocking the gathering of spiritual energy.

Unable to use spiritual energy!

Lin Chen didn’t panic, speaking calmly, "You put poison in the food?"

The middle-aged man replied coldly, "Just a Soul Locking Pill."

"Soul Locking Pill?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "The Soul Locking Pill is colorless and tasteless, dissolves in any liquid, and completely locks up the Dantian of those affected, making it impossible to use spiritual energy and paralyzing the Primordial Spirit, making it unable to escape... This elixir seems to be difficult to refine, and scarce."

The middle-aged man answered with fiery eyes, "Regardless of the cost, killing the Human Emperor is profitable, don’t you think?"

Lin Chen nodded, "True, the medicine is dead, but humans are alive, it’s indeed profitable. So why haven’t you made a move yet?"

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "I’ll make a move when the time is right."

Lin Chen replied calmly, "Waiting for the drug to fully take effect? Since you’re not making a move yet, let me ask, why do you want to kill me, I don’t seem to have met you before, and considering my casual movements, you must have put a lot of effort into finding me."

The middle-aged man answered coldly, "I have no grudges with you, but someone wants your life."

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise, "Doing someone else’s bidding? Assassin?"

The middle-aged man stared into Lin Chen’s eyes, suddenly raised his hand, his spiritual energy surging like a sharp knife, rushing towards Lin Chen’s throat.

A vine of emerald green mixed with crimson blood suddenly sprouted from under the table, like a whip landing on the tip of the sword made of spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy sword instantly collapsed.

The middle-aged man was taken aback, suddenly stood up, and threw a punch.

Lin Chen sat in his seat, not moving, staring at the middle-aged man, his expression calm.

Transforming God... Late stage?

Vines spread out, like whips of poisonous thorns, whipping viciously.

The man’s seemingly unstoppable punch was actually dispersed by the seemingly fragile vines!

A look of disbelief appeared on the man’s face, he didn’t expect Lin Chen to have such a powerful vine monster by his side!

Countless vines grew wildly from under the table in an instant, like countless extending arms, grabbing at the man.

The man summoned his flying sword, spitting a mouthful of Essence Blood on it, the flying sword instantly glowing with a brilliant white light, rushing towards Lin Chen with white streaks.

The vines suddenly twisted, forming a huge net in front of Lin Chen.

The flying sword collided with the vine net, only severing a dozen vines, before losing power and being entangled by the snake-like vines, unable to move.

At the same time, the vines, like javelins, shot towards the man.

A radiance appeared on the man’s body, and a Spiritual Qi Shield appeared, covering his body, blocking the vines as he quickly fled.

His speed was fast, but the vines were faster.

In the blink of an eye, the entire restaurant was completely covered by vines, intertwined like a net, sealing off the restaurant completely, with the vines growing wildly on the ground and walls like winding, twisting snakes.

The middle-aged man rushed forward, a vine-like whip lashing at his Light Shield, which dimmed instantly, on the verge of breaking.

The middle-aged man’s gaze was determined, and his Breath suddenly surged.

"He’s going to explode, stop him!"

Lin Chen’s voice rang out, Red Light erupted from a dozen vines, like javelins directly piercing the middle-aged man’s body, his Essence Blood instantly absorbed by the vines, his body shrinking rapidly like a deflated balloon, and his rising Breath suddenly released frantically.

A pendant on the middle-aged man’s neck suddenly lit up, his body suddenly engulfed in invisible flames, a black mist like a living entity shot towards Lin Chen at a rapid speed.

Vines danced, sweeping towards the black mist, however, the black mist seemed formless, with the vines passing through it but not harming it at all.

The black mist directly entered Lin Chen’s body and then disappeared.

The middle-aged man’s body was already shriveled, he stared at Lin Chen, emitting a vague voice from his throat.

"You can’t run! I’ll be waiting for you down there..."

As the middle-aged man finished speaking, the invisible flames melted his body, turning it into a puff of green smoke, leaving nothing behind.

"Master, are you alright?"

Mei Nu’s worried voice sounded, still a little frightened, after all, the red smoke had entered Lin Chen’s body, and she had failed to stop it!

Lin Chen’s face was calm, "The problem isn’t big, let’s go."

All the vines retracted, restoring the normal space of the restaurant, which was a complete mess, fortunately, no one else was hurt.

Lin Chen turned to Qiao Wei and laughed, "I didn’t expect to encounter an assassin while eating, is this why Cultivators don’t like to eat?"
