Chapter 2343: Chapter 2363: I haven’t killed for a long time, you all forget about me!_1

"Senior..."

Lin Chen signaled the three women to step back with his eyes. The old man’s displayed strength was too formidable and eerie, difficult to discern whether he was friend or foe, so they had to be extremely cautious.

The old man said indifferently, "What other delicious food do you have? Make it all, and do it well, and I’ll spare your lives."

A shock went through Lin Chen’s heart; it seemed this person did not come with good intentions.

If I refuse to do it, will he prepare to kill me?

Lin Chen bowed and said, "Then, Senior, please wait for a moment... You three, come help."

The three women took the opportunity to move away from the table and went to the temporary kitchen.

The old man’s presence felt too eerie, and judging from the tone of his words, coming uninvited and threatening lives, he was probably not someone benevolent.

Lin Chen didn’t try to flee, because the other party appeared too strong.

Four of us at the Da Luo level, and even Nalan Wushuang had reached the Elephant Mystery Realm, yet none of us noticed how he appeared; he materialized out of thin air beside the table like a ghost.

They didn’t even sense the slightest fluctuation of spiritual Qi; he appeared so abruptly.

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Lin Chen took out some more ingredients and started cooking again.

The three women assisted Lin Chen and communicated via divine sense to discuss how to deal with the situation.

"This person is so strong!"

"Since he hasn’t made a move, let’s not act rashly either. Let’s cook for now. Maybe if he’s pleased with the meal, he’ll just leave?"

"Let’s not act yet!"

The old man picked up a few bites with his chopsticks and then turned his expressionless face to ask, "Good food deserves good wine, where’s the wine?"

Lin Chen brought out a jar of wine brewed from Immortal Medicine and carefully presented it on the table for the old man. He also set a wine bowl for him and personally poured a bowl.

The old man picked up the wine bowl, took a sip, and pursed his lips, "The taste is average, passable. Hurry up and cook."

Lin Chen returned neatly to the temporary kitchen and continued cooking, while the old man ate and drank, relishing the meal.

Course after course was served, and the old man’s chopsticks never stopped, his stomach seemed bottomless, consuming so much without any sign of being filled.

Finally, after Lin Chen served a large plate of at least fifty pounds of barbecue, and the old man devoured it like a whirlwind, he then drank up the remaining wine in one gulp and put down his chopsticks.

Lin Chen’s heart rose with apprehension as he clasped his hands and asked, "Senior, have you eaten your fill?"

The old man’s face remained emotionless, as if petrified, showing no hint of happiness or anger, "I’ve eaten to about seventy percent full, which is sufficient. Elderly people shouldn’t eat too much, as it’s easy to overindulge."

After a pause, the old man’s gaze swept over and passed the faces of the three Purple Cloud women, he said indifferently, "Considering the many delicious dishes you’ve made, I can spare you one life. How about this, one woman comes with me, and the rest may live."

Lin Chen replied calmly, "Senior, what do you mean by ’come with you’?"

The old man answered blandly, "Naturally, it means to serve me, an elderly person. What else could it mean? You don’t lack for women anyway, missing one shouldn’t be a bother."

Lin Chen’s expression grew cold, "Your Excellency, isn’t that a bit too excessive?"

The old man snorted, "Excessive? According to my past character, you’d be dead by now, and your women would be kneeling on the ground begging me. I’m in a good mood today; just giving up one woman should make you count your blessings. Of course, you can refuse, but then I’ll just have to kill a few more people, that’s all."

Lin Chen was not intimidated by the other’s words and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency, who are you? Why not report your name?"

The old man calmly replied, "I’ve long forgotten my own name, but they usually like to call me by my title, Ghost True Man..."

Ghost True Man?

I’ve never heard of it!

Seeing the puzzled faces of Lin Chen and the others, who evidently did not know who he was, a tinge of annoyed embarrassment crossed the typically impassive eyes of the old man.

He was the renowned Ghost True Man from the Northern Sea, a terror that could quiet crying children, yet these people in front of him had no idea who he was after hearing his name!

"It seems that in recent years, as I’ve focused on cultivating my disposition and rarely killed, everyone has forgotten about me. Since that’s the case, I think it’s time to refresh everyone’s memory," the old man said.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen hurriedly explained, "We are not from the Northern Sea, not even from the Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain, hence our lack of reaction to Your Excellency’s title."

Ghost True Man’s voice remained calm as he lifted his right hand and curled his middle finger, saying coldly, "You may die now."

As Ghost True Man spoke, a flicker of cold light shot out from his fingertip like a speck of light from the Star River, hurdling rapidly towards Lin Chen’s head.

The Ghost True Man was whimsically unpredictable, and his attack came suddenly. Fortunately, Lin Chen had maintained constant vigilance, and he reacted the instant the other party made a move.

With a thought, the Linglong Tower burst forth from his Sea of Knowledge in an instant.

No sooner had the Linglong Tower appeared than the radiance of the golden Barrier shot out, enveloping Lin Chen within its light.

The speck of starlight arrived in an instant, striking the golden Barrier, which shattered instantly, then it ferociously flew closer, crashing into the Linglong Tower that followed close behind.
