451: Lin Ye appears
Just a moment ago, Little Lin Ye had been acting so brazenly and arrogantly, as if he couldn't wait to cut them all down with his sword.
Yet after saying a harsh word and throwing a sword, he turned and ran without a moment's hesitation.
Who could have expected that!
"That little beast! He actually played us! Does he think he can get away?"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Little Lin Ye had been sprinting with all his might, but he was too small, and with his cultivation still very weak at this moment, he simply couldn't outrun those few people.
In less time than it takes to draw a breath, he was surrounded once again.
Little Lin Ye looked at the people surrounding him, a hint of realization appearing on his face.
Opening his mouth, he spoke in a tone that completely didn't belong to his age: "Damn it, I knew it wouldn't be that easy to escape."
"Hmm?!"
The few people surrounding Lin Ye were stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting that a mere child would have such an expression and would even curse.
But they recovered from their slight daze quickly.
The leader spoke: "Little beast, you actually have some brains, knowing you couldn't defeat us and turning to run, but the one thing you got wrong is that even if you made the best choice, you still can't escape our grasp. You..."
"Alright, alright, stop dragging it out!"
Before the man could finish speaking, a look of impatience appeared on Little Lin Ye's face.
"Why do you talk so much? Whatever you want, come and take it!"
After saying that, Little Lin Ye spread his arms and closed his eyes directly.
This action left everyone even more confused.
They had imagined various reactions from Little Lin Ye when facing a desperate situation, but they never expected this.
It made their hair stand on end.
One of them approached the leader and said: "Immortal Chief, this kid seems a bit strange!"
"Nonsense!"
The leader snapped: "I'm not blind; don't you think I can see that? He is so fearless, could there be some protector by his side? That's impossible; I haven't sensed the aura of any other powerhouses in this world."
"You few Mahayana Realm Cultivators, plus me, a Saint, coming to deal with this mere Foundation Establishment little beast, is already overkill. Now, because he's a bit strange, you're hesitating? If this gets out, how can we still show our faces?"
"You're right! In a mere Lower Domain, no matter how powerful it is, what kind of protector could possibly appear by his side? We are definitely overthinking it!"
The few exchanged glances, and the person called the Immortal Chief walked straight towards Little Lin Ye.
He arrived in front of Little Lin Ye.
The Immortal Chief narrowed his eyes; although he had spoken boldly earlier, at this moment, he still felt a bit nervous.
Hum...
One of his hands appeared with a halo of light, and wisps of black Qi seemed to be flowing within that halo.
That hand reached out continuously towards Little Lin Ye's chest.
The slow movement clearly indicated he was worried about a sneak attack. When that hand pressed against Little Lin Ye's chest, the Immortal Chief breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems I was overthinking it. In a tiny Lower Domain, how could there possibly be a powerhouse protecting him?"
After saying this, a hint of ferocity appeared on the Immortal Chief's face.
"Once I take the thing from you, the only variable here, you will never be able to rise again!"
Pfft!
The sound of flesh being pierced rang out, and blood splattered everywhere.
Little Lin Ye groaned. The Immortal Chief's hand had plunged directly into his chest, and one could even clearly feel a force ravaging and flowing through the bone.
"This does not belong to you! Now, it should be returned to us!"
The Immortal Chief's hand seemed to have grabbed a piece of bone, and the next moment, he gave a violent tug.
It was at this moment that Little Lin Ye suddenly opened his eyes. He brought two fingers together, and a burst of Sword Qi erupted.
Clang!
As a Saint, he naturally wouldn't be injured by a tiny Foundation Establishment Cultivator, but because he was caught off guard, a white mark appeared on his face.
Even though it didn't break the skin, this was the greatest insult to him.
Little Lin Ye's pale face carried a hint of a smile: "Old beast, it seems your skin is quite thick. But that's alright, this is the mark of you being treated as a beast."
"You're courting death!!!"
Pfft!
The Immortal Chief yanked his hand back violently, and a piece of bone was pulled straight out. A large amount of blood sprayed out, and Little Lin Ye fell into a pool of blood as a result.
Although the pain of the broken bone went deep into his marrow, he still didn't faint. His eyes stared fixedly at the few people in front of him, as if he wanted to etch their faces into his mind.
"Immortal Chief, are you alright!"
The remaining few all ran over, and they all saw the white mark on their Immortal Chief's face.
But the more concerned they were, the more the Immortal Chief felt he had lost all face.
To be bitten by an ant—how could he endure this!
The Immortal Chief's eyes were filled with killing intent as he stared at Lin Ye in the pool of blood.
"Damn little beast, today I will make you wish for death but be unable to die!"
The piece of bone held by the Immortal Chief emitted a seven-colored glow.
"Immortal Chief, this piece of Hongmeng Bone is too powerful. If we continue to linger in the Lower Domain, it won't be long before we are discovered! That will be troublesome!"
"You go take this Hongmeng Bone away; I want to properly torture this little beast!"
The Immortal Chief's face was full of ferocity. To be insulted by an ant like Little Lin Ye—if he could endure that, he would be a turtle.
"Yes!"
One of his subordinates heard this and didn't say anything more, directly taking the glowing Hongmeng Bone into his hand.
Immediately, his figure flashed and disappeared from everyone's sight.
After that subordinate left, the Immortal Chief turned his gaze back to Little Lin Ye in the pool of blood.
"I want this little beast to die right now!!!"
After saying that, the Immortal Chief raised a foot and stomped towards Little Lin Ye's chest.
Yet, facing this certain-death situation, Little Lin Ye's eyes remained bright.
Just as that foot was about to land, the Immortal Chief seemed to sense something, turned around, and roared: "Who are you?!"
Everyone, including Little Lin Ye, turned their gazes over.
Without them knowing when, a young man had appeared behind them.
The young man was dressed in white like snow, with an ancient Spirit Sword on his back. His handsome face and ethereal aura made him look like a celestial being.
There was a hint of shock in the Immortal Chief's eyes.
He had no idea how this young man had appeared. If the young man had attacked suddenly just now, wouldn't he have been beheaded?
The young man in white was none other than Lin Ye.
He had been watching all of this coldly from the sidelines.
Yet these people had suddenly turned around to look at him?
Lin Ye extended a finger and pointed at himself.
The meaning seemed to be saying.
"Are you talking to me?"
