Chapter 553: Chapter 573: Where Is Your Sword Hidden? _1

The cruise ship docked, and everyone was driven back to the Blue Sky Hotel.

Lin Chen did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he waited until nightfall, and then quietly checked out of the Blue Sky Hotel with his bag.

Lin Chen did not take a car to leave, but chose to walk along the beach.

After walking about a kilometer, a sedan drove up from behind and stopped by Lin Chen’s side. Guo Tang got out of the car.

Lin Chen turned around: "You’ve been following me pretty closely."

Guo Tang laughed, looking left and right: "You left the hotel on foot instead of taking a car, which means you were waiting for me. Since you were waiting for me, wouldn’t you be disappointed if I didn’t show up?"

Lin Chen put his travel bag on the ground and smiled: "You’re brave to come even though you know I was waiting for you."

Guo Tang laughed: "Your strength is indeed strong, being able to defeat Zhou Jiyuan with one punch, but it won’t take me long to kill you."

Lin Chen smiled: "I told you, I refused President Ji’s help because I planned to kill you myself."

Guo Tang stopped joking and said solemnly: "Then let’s give it a try."

Guo Tang’s figure flickered, and he punched toward Lin Chen.

Lin Chen did not dodge and faced the attack directly.

"Bang!"

Gang Qi exploded, innumberable blade-like fragments shot out in all directions. A wave of energy spread from the center of the two, leaving a large crater where they stood.

Lin Chen was knocked back, slamming into a large tree by the side of the road. However, Lin Chen didn’t lose his balance and managed to steady himself.

Guo Tang took two steps back and sneered: "You have some ability, but it’s not enough to kill me."

Lin Chen’s face turned pale: "How do you know if you don’t try?"

Without hesitation, Guo Tang, like a ferocious tiger, pounced at Lin Chen once more. With each movement, the wind roared around his body, making him seem like a raging wind dragon, terrifying to behold.

"Bang!"

Lin Chen was sent flying again, and a trace of blood leaked from the corner of his mouth.

Guo Tang was indeed strong!

But Lin Chen did not panic. He stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said: "You are indeed strong, but if I want to leave, you won’t be able to stop me."

Guo Tang sneered and pounced again like a dragon.

"Leave? Show me how you’re going to do that!"

Guo Tang knocked Lin Chen back once more and whizzed toward him, preparing to step on him.

Seeing that there was no way to dodge, Lin Chen waved his right hand wildly, trying to steady himself.

A cruel and triumphant look appeared on Guo Tang’s face.

Die!

No matter how much of a genius you are, you will die in my hands today!

I will make Lin Yuan and Feng Lan regret this for the rest of their lives!

Just as Guo Tang’s foot was about to fall, Lin Chen suddenly looked up and bared his teeth in a grin.

Blood trickled down the corner of Lin Chen’s mouth. In the moonlight, this smile appeared eerie, like a hunter seeing prey that had fallen into his trap.

At the same time, a simple-looking long sword suddenly appeared in Lin Chen’s empty right hand.

The sword, with its lingering cyan arc, glided toward Guo Tang’s descending shin.

Guo Tang’s pupils shrank sharply, fear appearing in his eyes. His body jerked suddenly, and, against all odds, twisted his leg out of the way.

However, the attack had been sudden, with full force, and he couldn’t borrow any strength in mid-air. Even though Guo Tang changed the direction of his legs, he could not avoid Lin Chen’s long-planned strike.

The sword cut through Guo Tang’s calf without resistance, slicing through more than half of it in an instant.

If Guo Tang hadn’t reacted quickly, his entire leg would probably have been gone. Nevertheless, this sword strike had severely injured him.

Guo Tang’s mind was resolute. He landed, not looking at Lin Chen. Disregarding his leg injury and the blood spurting from it, he turned and charged toward the nearby woods.

As long as he could cross this wide expanse of trees, he could reach a residential area above. As long as he reached a place with people, he could survive!

Lin Chen followed closely.

Guo Tang was ruthless. Despite having half of his foot cut off and blood spewing, he ran faster than the wind, as if he hadn’t been injured at all.

Guo Tang had just entered the woods when he saw a shadow suddenly flash out and stab at him with a finger like a sword.

When the sword appeared, the surrounding space seemed to collapse completely.

Heaven and earth seemed to be filled with this sword.

Chu Jiaxue!

Guo Tang had barely thought of her when the Sword Finger was upon him.

Guo Tang charged forward unwillingly.

His hand burst open first, followed by his arm, and then the Sword Finger, with its remaining force, broke through his Gang Qi defense and pierced into his chest.

Guo Tang was sent flying from the woods and crashed down in front of Lin Chen with a thud.

Blood spurted from Guo Tang’s mouth, his eyes filled with resentment, unwillingness, and hatred. He stared at Lin Chen: "Where did you hide your sword...?"

Lin Chen raised his right hand, showing off the ancient ring to Guo Tang.

"Guo Tang, I actually had some sympathy for you, but since you insisted on killing me, I had no choice but to send you to your death..."
