106: Chapter 106 Toys

As the words fell, the twelve Dobermans suddenly began to change.

The fleshy tentacles on the bodies of those twelve Dobermans began to entwine and merge with one another.

In an instant, the twelve giant Dobermans fused into a single massive three-headed dog, standing over three meters tall.

Over a hundred fleshy tentacles surged across the giant three-headed dog's body. Its three massive heads bared menacing fangs, and its six eyes were blood-red, looking incredibly fierce and chilling.

Anyone who saw such a monster would feel a chill in their heart.

Its aura had long since surpassed C-Rank, reaching B-Rank, and even far exceeding the three B-Rank Experts before it.

The three of them had long since turned pale, and they all looked at Lin Cong, shouting, "Young Master, this monster's strength far exceeds ours; we need to call for more reinforcements!"

Lin Cong's face was also incredibly unsightly at this moment.

He had originally thought that by bringing three B-Rank Experts and eight mid-to-high-level C-Rank experts, it would be enough to take down Ling Yichen.

He had even specifically kept it from everyone and come here to ambush him quietly, fearing that others would steal the credit.

He never expected that things would turn into this situation after just one encounter.

If he had known Ling Yichen was so difficult to deal with, he should have told his father and had his father send some of his personal guards.

At this moment, his heart was filled with regret.

But regret was useless. He looked back at the three of them with cold eyes and shouted in a low voice, "The three of you hold it off for a moment; I will take him down as quickly as possible!"

As he spoke, he stared at Ling Yichen, full of murderous intent.

The three-headed dog was certainly powerful, but Ling Yichen was average.

At least, he hadn't sensed any powerful aura from Ling Yichen.

Therefore, he believed that as long as he took down Ling Yichen, even if this three-headed dog were powerful, it would be of no use.

Moreover, his goal this time was Ling Yichen.

If he could take down Ling Yichen, then all the sacrifices would be worth it.

So, his bones crackled, his aura gradually climbed, and the clothes on his body began to flutter without any wind.

The next second, he punched directly toward Ling Yichen.

In an instant, the sound of wind and thunder exploded, and the space around his fist was faintly distorted.

The Lin family was famous for their powerful physical strength, and the Lin family's body-refining Secret Art, Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations, was known as the number one body-refining Secret Art in the Human Realm.

Lin Cong had been exceptionally gifted since childhood and trained extremely hard. He began body refining at six, and now at eighteen, he had cultivated Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations to the Fifth Desolation, which actually meant he already possessed the strength to capture dragons.

Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations: at the First Desolation, one could slaughter an ox with bare hands; at the Second, tear apart a tiger; at the Third, lift an elephant; at the Fourth, strangle a python; at the Fifth, capture a dragon; at the Sixth, split a mountain; at the Seventh, divide the sea; at the Eighth, shatter the void; and at the Ninth, cut a star.

So, Lin Cong at this moment was actually very powerful.

Based on physical strength alone, even Xu Tiansheng might not dare to take it.

Ling Yichen naturally felt the power of Lin Cong's punch.

But he was not afraid at all; he also extended his fist, intending to clash head-on with Lin Cong's punch.

In an instant, the two fists met, and only a crisp cracking sound was heard.

Ling Yichen's fist shattered instantly, like a hammer hitting a tomato, and the tomato burst instantly.

And Ling Yichen's fist was that tomato.

Even Ling Yichen's entire right arm shattered along with it.

However, Ling Yichen didn't seem to care at all. On the contrary, he looked at his shattered right arm extremely happily and said with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad. Is this the power of the Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations?"

He had originally wanted to verify just how strong the Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations was, because he had already obtained the Secret Art of the Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations.

If the Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations wasn't powerful enough, then he would have no need to waste time cultivating it.

Right now, he was very satisfied with the strength of the Dragon Capturing Nine Desolations.

"Hmph, overestimating yourself!"

Seeing that he had shattered Ling Yichen's right hand with one punch, Lin Cong's confidence instantly soared, believing he was about to easily take down Ling Yichen.

Unexpectedly, Ling Yichen gave an evil, charming smile. The next second, Ling Yichen's right hand grew back at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At the same time, he also discovered that the blood and flesh fragments stained on his fist seemed to come alive, instantly turning into countless Worms that began to burrow into his body.

"What is this?" Lin Cong was greatly startled and instinctively shook his hand.

At the same time, the divine power in his energy center erupted. His fist was instantly filled with a red aura, and the red aura instantly burned most of the Worms to nothing.

However, a small number of red Worms still didn't die, and he even saw white Worms instantly burrow into his skin, fleeing toward the inside of his body!

This filled his eyes with fear, because he had seen how those eight C-Rank subordinates had died.

However, fear was useless. In order to parasitize him, Ling Yichen had specifically used an Intelligence Worm.

The power of the Intelligence Worm was unquestionable; it could break through the defenses of even a B-Rank Expert and successfully parasitize them.

After completing the parasitization, the look in Ling Yichen's eyes as he watched Lin Cong became playful.

Once parasitized, Lin Cong would be his toy.

Life and death were entirely up to his mood.

Therefore, he specifically waited for a moment, and only after the Intelligence Worm had completely taken over Lin Cong's body did Ling Yichen grin and laugh.

He just said nonchalantly, "Kneel!"

The next second, Lin Cong's legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

Then, with a thud, he knelt straight down toward Ling Yichen.

This also left Lin Cong inexplicably terrified, with endless fear in his eyes.

Because he had no idea what was going on; his own legs completely refused to obey him.

"What did you do to me?" Lin Cong growled.

Ling Yichen walked up to him and raised his hand to gently stroke the top of his head, as if a master were stroking a beloved dog.

He raised his hand to make a shushing gesture, then whispered, "Shh, let's take a good look at how your subordinates are dealing with my doggies."

Then his gaze locked onto the giant three-headed dog formed by the fusion of twelve Dobermans.

The giant three-headed dog was currently fighting with the three B-Rank Experts.

Calling it a fight, it was actually more like a massacre.

The giant three-headed dog's strength was greater than any one of the three.

Even if the three of them joined forces, they could barely hold their own against the giant three-headed dog.

However, this was just a superficial phenomenon.

In reality, the flesh of the giant three-headed dog had long since contaminated the three of them; in other words, the three of them had long since been parasitized.

The giant three-headed dog was just playing with them.

Sure enough, after watching for a while, Ling Yichen suddenly felt bored.

He snapped his fingers and said, "Alright, it's getting late. Don't waste any more time; kill them all!"

As Ling Yichen's words fell, the bodies of those three B-Rank Experts instantly seemed to have been hit by a binding spell, unable to move at all.

The next second, their bodies began to fester, festering from the inside out.

Large chunks of flesh fell from their bodies, turning into countless Worms and Spirit Worms.

"Ah!!" "Young Master, save me!" "Young Master, help!"

The three of them let out miserable wails and looked at Lin Cong.

Only to find that Lin Cong was also disheartened, kneeling blankly beside Ling Yichen; the result was self-evident.

At this moment, the eyes of the three were filled with despair and fear.

Before they could show too much emotion, their bodies had completely festered, turning into Worms and Spirit Worms.

And these Worms and Spirit Worms automatically crawled onto the giant three-headed dog, instantly fusing into one with it.

And on their side of the battlefield, only three skeletons remained.

Facing this outcome, Ling Yichen was very satisfied.

He grabbed Lin Cong by the hair, lifted him straight off the ground, and asked, "How is it? Are you satisfied with this result?"

"When you came to surround and kill me, did you ever think this would be your end?"

Upon hearing this, a trace of the will to survive rose in Lin Cong's eyes.

"You can't kill me, you can't kill me! I am a direct descendant of the Lin family; I am a candidate for the next head of the Lin family. If you kill me, the Lin family will not let you off."

"The power of the Lin family is far beyond what you can imagine!"

Lin Cong attempted to use the power of the Lin family to coerce Ling Yichen into letting him go.

However, he misestimated Ling Yichen's character.

How could Ling Yichen be afraid of the Lin family?

If he were afraid of the Lin family, he wouldn't have killed two directors at the Discipline Hall.

If he were afraid of the Six Great Families, he wouldn't have ruthlessly killed people from the Six Great Families.

If he were afraid of fighting with others, he would have long since gone into hiding and grown quietly.

In fact, he was warlike and bloodthirsty to the core.

Six years of imprisonment had long since imbued his personality with murderous tendencies.

He wanted to kill; he wanted to kill everyone who wanted to kill him.

He wanted to vent—to vent the hatred of being imprisoned and abused.

Only in this way could he find a trace of peace, and only then could he sleep comfortably at night.

So at this moment, facing Lin Cong's coercion, he slowly revealed a creepy smile.

"Can't kill you, hahaha..."

He laughed loudly, the madness in his eyes gradually revealing itself.

"Ordinary people might fear the power of your Lin family, but... I am not an ordinary person!"

"Never mind your Lin family; even if the whole world were my enemy, I would not fear it!"

"Because... I hate this world, I hate the people of this world?"

"The people of your world are all a bunch of trash!"

As he spoke, Ling Yichen suddenly exerted force and tore off a piece of Lin Cong's scalp!

This caused Lin Cong to let out a heart-wrenching wail from the pain.

And this roar caused the madness in Ling Yichen's eyes to dissipate significantly in an instant.

He took a deep breath, pinched the space between his eyebrows, and then muttered to himself, "That's enough. I promised to let you come out and move around for a few minutes every day, but don't go too far!"

After saying this, all the violence and madness on his body dissipated completely.

He returned to his usual tranquility and peace.

Even the giant three-headed dog disintegrated and transformed back into twelve Doberman Pinschers, which came to his side, incredibly obedient.

At this time, Ling Yichen looked up at Lin Cong, his eyes incomparably deep, devoid of any emotion.

Even Lin Cong at this moment felt as if Ling Yichen had become a different person.

Although he had been tortured to the point of extreme pain, he still spoke up: "Let me go, I can trade treasures with you. Whatever you want, I can give it to you, as long as you can spare me!"

At this moment, Lin Cong's eyes were full of pleading.

He was afraid; he was terrified.

He had lived his whole life in an extremely comfortable environment.

Even though he had grown to become a B-Rank Expert, he had never truly faced life and death.

So, encountering someone like Ling Yichen at this moment, he was truly afraid.

But...

Ling Yichen shook his head gently and said indifferently, "Sorry, I cannot keep you, because you have never had any goodwill toward me from the very beginning. For a person like you, there is no value in keeping you. Moreover, if you were still alive, how could I let Lin Hao take your place?"

Hearing this, Lin Cong's eyes suddenly widened, full of disbelief.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of Lin Hao's Second Awakening and the tentacle on Lin Hao's chest.

He understood in an instant!

He exclaimed, "It's you!"

However, the moment he opened his mouth, his entire face collapsed.

Yes, his entire face and scalp, like a cooked sheep's head, slid directly off his skull.

In an instant, all the flesh on his body turned into Worms and Spirit Worms, and there were even a few white Intelligence Worms.
