139: it's over?

The Guard Team?!

Yan Zijin and the middle-aged man behind him both narrowed their eyes simultaneously.

Hang Qin from the Supreme Academy?

No!

They said it's a Youth in Black!

Black clothes, a youth... Is there such a person among the other three major forces?

As thoughts flashed through his mind.

Yan Zijin watched the elevator reaching the 90th floor, his expression instantly turning cold.

"No matter who it is."

"Since they dare to cause trouble in our Military Alliance so brazenly, there's only one outcome!"

"Death!"

He took the lead and stepped toward the elevator.

The middle-aged man behind him immediately led many figures to follow.

Just as they reached the elevator doors.

"Ding!"

A crisp sound announced its arrival.

The elevator doors slowly opened.

A Youth in Black, followed by many figures with stern expressions, was the first to enter their sight.

Both groups went silent.

Then, intense Killing Intent filled the wide hallway.

Lin Yan's gaze swept across the crowd, settling on the young man in black at the very front, his eyes as calm as water.

"Yan Zijin?"

Yan Zijin responded coldly.

"Precisely!"

"Are you from Starry Sky..."

The Bank? The Mercenary Alliance? Or the Martial Arts Company?

No matter which one he wanted to ask.

He didn't have the chance to finish the question.

Because...

Bang—!

A stomp that shook the entire building exploded.

A powerful pressure, like stars crashing into a body, suddenly appeared.

A violent roar of a punch wrapped in Black Flames swept out.

Yan Zijin's expression changed slightly.

Star Attraction Great Achievement!

He immediately summoned his battle saber and slashed downward.

Boom—!

The battle saber collided with the punch, producing an earth-shattering explosion.

The powerful aftershocks spread everywhere, forming a violent shockwave.

Crash—!

Countless windows shattered instantly.

"Ah!"

Many figures from the Military Alliance spat blood and were sent flying.

"Pfft!"

Yan Zijin spat a mouthful of blood; his head was directly struck by the fist that had shattered his battle saber, and his body slammed heavily into the ground.

"Your Highness!!"

A roar echoed.

The Guard Team members behind Yan Zijin were not spared either.

Fu Ying's eyes narrowed slightly.

The fleeting aura Your Highness just showed... The Guard Team members looked at each other, shock flashing in their eyes.

What were the Black Flames that just wrapped around Your Highness?

There was actually an aura that made even them feel heart palpitations!

"Cough... ugh..."

Yan Zijin, coughing blood frantically, felt a tearing pain throughout his body, his eyes filled with immense terror.

What is this?!

What the hell is this?!

He was insta-killed! Insta-killed by a youth!

Not only that!

Zhao Guang, a King Rank Eighth Grade Early Stage cultivator who wanted to act, was also blasted into the wall by someone behind the youth.

Did a Star River Rank Prodigy arrive?

But are Star River Rank Prodigies this powerful?!

He had clearly felt just now that this youth's cultivation was only at the Fourth Grade Peak!

Even if he fought above his level, he should only be equal to his combat power!

How could a single strike cause such a devastating result?

"You..."

His mind in a mess, Yan Zijin just managed to look up.

Bang—!

A massive force stepped on his head, forcing it into deep contact with the floor again.

The youth's calm voice came from above.

"Do you know why I'm hitting you?"

"Who exactly are you?" Yan Zijin, filled with humiliation, gritted his teeth. "If you have the guts, state your name and region!"

He was already certain in his heart.

This was definitely a helper brought in from another region by some organization!

Calling for backup, huh?!

No matter who you are! Just you wait!

Even if you're Star River Rank, even if His Highness Xu Hao isn't in a position to strike across tiers, I'll eventually let you know that in these star rivers, our Military Alliance calls the shots!!

"Heh..."

"Starry Sky Martial Arts Company, Star Patrol Envoy of this region, Lin Yan."

Lin Yan chuckled.

"You can call for backup."

"I'll be waiting for you right here."

Starry Sky Martial Arts Company?

Star Patrol Envoy of this region?

Lin Yan?

Yan Zijin's bloodshot pupils contracted.

The new Star Patrol Envoy who came after that coward surnamed Huang left?

Before he could think further.

Bang—!

A massive force slammed into his abdomen.

"Pfft!"

He spat out another mouthful of blood, his entire body flying sideways to the entrance of an open Quiet Room.

Tap... tap... the sound of footsteps echoed softly.

The wretched Yan Zijin struggled to open his eyes, only to see a scene that made his eyes nearly burst.

"You... dare!!"

He saw Lin Yan walk straight into the Quiet Room.

Then, he casually picked up a box from the table, tossed it around, and threw it into his Storage Ring.

In the blink of an eye.

Several boxes containing various grades of Spirit Medicine were all collected by him.

"Pfft!"

Overcome by rage, Yan Zijin spat out another mouthful of blood and completely blacked out.

In the final moment before he lost consciousness, there was only one name in his mind.

Lin Yan! Lin Yan!!

Just you wait!!

Lin Yan, having just walked out of the Quiet Room, raised an eyebrow slightly.

So fragile?

Seeing this, Fu Ying, who was watching him closely, smiled to himself.

Compared to when His Eminence was young, Your Highness is actually a bit more down-to-earth.

Especially this soul-crushing method of destroying the heart—it's really not something His Eminence could have done.

"Let's go."

Lin Yan stepped toward the elevator.

Just as they reached the elevator doors.

"Ding!"

The crisp sound of reaching the floor echoed.

"Shit!"

"You Military Alliance brats! Come and fight!"

"Star Envoy Lin! We're here!!"

"Yan Zijin!"

"Today..."

"Uh!"

Many aggressive figures froze, slowly lowering the glowing spirit weapons in their hands.

What's the situation?

They looked at the wide corridor, which was in even worse shape than the ground floor lobby.

Numerous figures were in a wretched state, groaning in pain on the ground, with blood splattered on the surrounding walls.

On the ground not far away was Yan Zijin, whose fate was unknown; although his face was hideously covered in blood, they recognized him at a glance.

Further away, a figure was deeply embedded in the wall, their aura so weak it was almost imperceptible.

Were they swept through by bandits?

Everyone simultaneously shifted their gaze to the calm Youth in Black before them and swallowed hard.

"Star Envoy Lin..." Zhu Ling's voice trembled. "This is...?"

They all wanted a definitive answer!

"It's settled," Lin Yan smiled faintly. "Let's head back first."

With that.

He walked straight into the elevator.

S-Settled?

It really was the work of this new Star Patrol Envoy!

Shit!

Many Star Stewards clenched their fists simultaneously, their faces flushing with excitement.

Too fast!

Their group couldn't keep up at all!

At this speed, it absolutely proved just how powerful this Star Patrol Envoy was!

They had finally welcomed a formidable Prodigy!

And his style of action was extremely swift and decisive!

They only wanted to say one word now!

Satisfying!!

(PS: An elder in the family has had some issues recently and I will be busy until the night of the 4th. If I can find the time, I will update normally; if not, I'll have to take a leave of absence. Additionally, I will do my best to make up for the 5 owed bonus chapters after handling the family matters! Thank you!)
