72: Chapter 72 Look how arrogant you are! The Demise of the Silver Wolf Squad

At this moment, Lin Yuan stood in front of Tang Wanrou, which warmed her heart; Lin Yuan was protecting her.

"Who are you people? What are you trying to do?"

Tang Wanrou peeked out from behind Lin Yuan and shouted at the Silver Wolf Squad.

"Kid, someone wants you dead. We are just following orders. Just accept your fate obediently, and we can report back sooner," one of the members said coldly.

"How dare you! My father is the leader of the Martial Alliance. Retreat immediately, or my father will not spare you!"

Tang Wanrou judged from their auras that these five were all Second-Tier Martial Artists. She and Lin Yuan definitely couldn't handle them, so she could only use her status to try and scare them away.

"You are? ---"

Silver Wolf Number One suddenly asked. He suddenly became cautious. He had to take seriously the children of such powerful figures; one slip-up could ruin them.

"I am from Jiang Province, and my surname is Tang. Do I need to be clearer? Aren't you retreating yet!"

Upon hearing this, Silver Wolf Number One was shocked. It was actually the daughter of the Martial Alliance's Supreme Leader!

"Captain, who is this girl?" a member asked.

"Shut up! This is Miss Tang, do not be disrespectful!"

Silver Wolf Number One already knew Tang Wanrou's identity and stopped his member with a shout, then spoke:

"Miss Tang, we have no intention of offending you. However, this kid next to you is our target. Please leave; we only want to kill him."

Although the other party's status was astonishing, after pondering for a moment, Silver Wolf Number One still decided to kill Lin Yuan. As for the Tang family's retribution, President Chen would naturally take the blame.

But they absolutely did not dare to lay a hand on Tang Wanrou. Even if they cleaned up the mess perfectly, given the Tang family's power, they would definitely find out, and they would only have a dead end.

"How dare you! He is my friend. If you retreat now, I will not pursue responsibility for you. Otherwise, I will definitely tell my father, and no matter who you are, you will suffer the sanctions of the Martial Alliance!"

Tang Wanrou walked directly past Lin Yuan and stood in front of him.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan felt a warmth in his heart, but how could Lin Yuan hide behind a woman?

He took a step forward, placing Tang Wanrou behind him again, and gave her a look, signaling her to be quiet.

"Captain, what should we do?"

"When we attack, I will kill that kid, and you guys pull Miss Tang away," Silver Wolf Number One immediately made a decision.

"Yes, Captain!"

Lin Yuan heard this and sneered, "Who sent you?"

"Kid, the dead don't need to know so much," a member shouted.

"Are you so sure you can take me down?" Lin Yuan asked with a half-smile.

"Heh heh—Kid, you are adorably foolish. We are all Second-Tier Martial Artists, and our captain is a peak Second-Tier Martial Artist. Are you calling that confidence or ignorance?"

"Second-Tier? Is that very impressive? Look how awesome you think you are!" Lin Yuan glanced at him dismissively.

The man's blood instantly surged upon hearing this. He stomped his foot heavily and rushed toward Lin Yuan, "Arrogant brat, die!"

Seeing this, Lin Yuan stood his ground without moving an inch, still looking at the opponent with disdain.

"No!"

Tang Wanrou cried out when the opponent suddenly attacked. Just as she was about to pull Lin Yuan to dodge, Lin Yuan suddenly moved.

Bang!

A simple punch smashed directly towards the opponent's chest.

The next second, a figure flew backward at extreme speed. This figure was the one who had charged at Lin Yuan.

The man lay on the ground, his chest severely caved in, blood constantly gushing from his mouth. He stared with wide eyes, looking at Lin Yuan in disbelief.

"You—You—How could you be so strong? ---"

He barely managed to utter a sentence before his head lolled to the side, and he stopped moving.

"Fifth Brother! Fifth Brother! ---"

The few members saw that their teammate had been sent flying backward by Lin Yuan's punch and rushed over to check the situation.

But when they checked Silver Wolf Number Five's breath, the group was filled with grief and indignation.

"D-Dead? Old Five was beaten to death..." Silver Wolf Number Two said with difficulty.

"What? Dead? That's impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Silver Wolf Number One immediately looked at Lin Yuan, a deep sense of regret flashing in his eyes. This kid was actually someone pretending to be weak! It was a pity they had been too careless before.

Tang Wanrou stood behind Lin Yuan in a daze, looking at the imposing figure in front of her. She was utterly stunned, covering her mouth with her small hands to prevent herself from crying out in shock.

"How can he be this strong? A Second-Tier Martial Artist—he killed him with one punch! This is too terrifying! Does Great Xia have such a monstrous genius? No—genius is just a joke in front of him! ---"

At this moment, tremendous waves surged in Tang Wanrou's heart. As the daughter of the Supreme Leader of the Martial Alliance, she had seen countless geniuses, and she herself was a genius. However, she had never heard of anyone who could compare to Lin Yuan.

"Are you ready to die?" A cruel smile touched Lin Yuan's lips as his gaze swept towards Silver Wolf Number One.

"You! -- Kid, don't be arrogant! I admit we were careless before, but today you are definitely going to die!" Silver Wolf Number One said fiercely.

"Brothers, attack with full strength! We must kill this kid and avenge Old Five! Attack!"

Silver Wolf Number One roared, and the four of them immediately drew the battle sabers from their waists and charged towards Lin Yuan together.

The four men had imposing momentum, and their battle sabers flashed with various lights. Lin Yuan, however, was completely unafraid. He executed the Star Scar Nine Steps, and his figure immediately blurred, crashing directly into the middle of the four.

Lin Yuan possessed the combat strength of a Third-Tier Mid-Stage expert. Facing a group of only Second-Tier Martial Artists, he would naturally crush them. He didn't even need to use Martial Arts, relying purely on direct, flesh-to-flesh blows.

Bang bang bang bang!

Four loud bangs echoed, and four figures flew backward like mud, smashing into the surrounding Silver Pine tree trunks, causing the trunks to shake violently.

In an instant, the four were silent. Lin Yuan had struck extremely hard and showed no mercy; these four were all dead. The Silver Wolf Squad was completely annihilated.

"Th-This... All dead? You—How did you do it? You are only eighteen years old; you couldn't possibly be this strong! How exactly did you cultivate? This defies common sense! ---"

Tang Wanrou stared in shock at the five lifeless figures lying on the ground. Lin Yuan shocked her again. Four Second-Tier Martial Artists, including a terrifying peak Second-Tier one.

Yet Lin Yuan fought alone, without using any Martial Arts, and instantly killed four with his bare hands. What kind of strength was that? Third-Tier Early Stage, or Third-Tier Mid-Stage?

Was this the strength achievable at the age of eighteen?

Lin Yuan shook his head helplessly. Indeed, Tang Wanrou's gaze, which treated him like a monster, made him very speechless.

"Alright, the danger is gone. You should leave quickly. I'll scout further inside," Lin Yuan said with a smile.

Tang Wanrou rolled her eyes and cursed inwardly, "What danger? To you, were these people even dangerous?"

"Lin Yuan, what exactly is your strength?" Tang Wanrou couldn't help but ask.

"Uh—It's just what you saw, a little bit stronger than them," Lin Yuan replied.

"It's about a billion times stronger, isn't it?--- This is too discouraging! --- Alright, you continue exploring. I won't hold you back anymore. Find me at the hotel after you come out."

After speaking, Tang Wanrou turned around and headed back the way she came towards the exit.

After walking a few steps, she turned her head back and looked deeply at Lin Yuan.

"Come back safely, I'll wait for you ---"

As Tang Wanrou's voice faded, she turned and quickly disappeared before Lin Yuan's eyes.

Although he hadn't spent much time with Tang Wanrou, Lin Yuan could feel that she was definitely a kind-hearted girl. Perhaps they could become friends.

But that was all. Although Tang Wanrou was gentle and lovely, and seemed to have some interest in him, she wasn't his type.

At this moment, a stunning figure flashed through Lin Yuan's mind. Lin Yuan couldn't help but shake his head, throwing away the unrealistic thoughts.

He was still too weak now. Maybe when he became stronger, he could try to get closer to that stunning figure...

Lin Yuan swallowed the soul bodies of the five members of the Silver Wolf Squad. He checked Silver Wolf Number One's memories, and a name immediately surfaced.

"Chen Xing? Heh heh—So it was you. We had no prior enmity, but it's a pity you insisted on courting death yourself---" Lin Yuan muttered through narrowed eyes.
