35: Encounter, kill them all

Lin Yan was very fast.

Before long,

he arrived at a fork in the road; before him were three bottomless tunnels.

Three.

The strongest exotic beast in this Secret Realm shouldn't be too powerful.

This was an experience gained over many years.

Lin Yan glanced at the corpses lying across the three corridors.

People had already gone through; it should be that Huang Family.

Then I'll take the middle one. It's all the same anyway, and the beast roars are strongest from this direction.

With that thought, he didn't hesitate for a moment and charged forward.

Ten minutes later.

The beast roars grew closer.

The spiritual energy fluctuations also became more intense.

Lin Yan, who was rapidly passing over numerous exotic beast corpses in the corridor, paused for a moment, but his speed increased rather than decreased... "Huang Yan, Huang Shi."

"You guys, hurry up."

A middle-aged man shouted.

"The Little Young Master is still watching."

Several Martial Artists fighting with exotic beasts nodded heavily.

"Okay."

Their movements became even more fierce.

"Uncle Nan."

"Is this the exotic beast Secret Realm?"

"It doesn't look that dangerous to me."

A listless youth spoke in a frivolous tone.

Huang Nan smiled.

"Little Young Master."

"The Yellow-Tier Secret Realm is naturally no challenge for us."

"This time is mainly because the school is on break, and the Family Head arranged for us to take you out to gain some experience."

"So you can adapt faster when you return to school after the break."

Huang Li was noncommittal.

"I don't know what the school is thinking."

"Having us participate in Secret Realm battles in the second semester of sophomore year."

"And in junior year, we even have to form our own teams to earn credits."

"Can Family scions like us be compared to those Beast-hunting teams who live off Secret Realms?"

Huang Nan smiled and didn't answer, but a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes as he turned to look at the battle ahead.

Someone like you can still be called a Family scion?!

Which Family didn't emerge from mountains of blades and seas of blood?

They put in countless efforts to guard various parts of the Dragon Kingdom.

He sighed inwardly.

The oceanic exotic beasts haven't made a move for so many years.

The hearts of those inland have changed; they no longer have the bloodiness and powerful will from the beginning of the martial civilization.

Especially the current younger generation; they've all grown up in greenhouses, only knowing how to seek pleasure.

Their superior backgrounds have instead become the reliance for them to bully the weak.

While his thoughts were racing,

the battle ended.

"Little Young Master, we can continue forward."

A voice came from ahead.

Huang Li nodded and walked forward with an arrogant swagger.

Just then,

Huang Nan, who had just stepped forward, suddenly turned his head to look at the dark corridor behind him.

"Watch out!"

"Who's there?!"

A strong wind blew against his face.

A black-clothed figure charged forward rapidly in Huang Nan's field of vision.

So fast!

Huang Yan and Huang Shi led several people from the front to his side, surrounding Huang Li in the center.

Swish—!

Lin Yan stopped and scanned the wary people.

One at Rank 3 Stage 7, two at Stage 5, one at Stage 3, two at Stage 1, and one at Rank 2 Stage 8.

They should be the Huang Family members in this tunnel.

"Beast-hunting team."

After a simple answer, he walked straight forward.

Beast-hunting team?

Huang Nan's eyes narrowed slightly.

What about the few people guarding the entrance?

As the captain of the Third Squad who frequently traveled for the Huang Family,

his experience was indeed extensive, and he immediately made a judgment in his heart.

Something went wrong.

Someone wasn't afraid of the Huang Family's reputation and forcibly intervened in this Yellow-Tier Secret Realm.

The key issue now wasn't to wonder who it was,

but how to deal with this youth who was clearly not old and wanted to pass through them.

From the brief observation just now, he had already discovered

that this youth wearing a baseball cap was clearly not weak.

The "Beast-hunting team" was very likely just three words he said at random.

So,

Explore together?

Forced expulsion?

Huang Nan didn't speak, so Huang Yan and the others naturally didn't say anything.

But he forgot that there was still an idiot young master in the group.

As Lin Yan got closer and closer,

Huang Li finally couldn't hold back.

He bravely stood out and made the worst choice for Huang Nan.

"What Beast-hunting team."

"Get out."

"Don't you know this place has been reserved by our Huang Family?"

Tap...!

Lin Yan's footsteps paused, and his eyes under the baseball cap lifted slightly.

He who had originally just wanted to pass through instantly changed his mind.

Huang Nan's expression changed.

"Protect the Little Young Master!"

Huang Li, who had just finished speaking, hadn't reacted yet.

What protection?

The experienced Huang Yan and the others instantly understood Huang Nan's meaning; already on alert, they had just taken out their weapons.

A sudden boom echoed through the quiet corridor.

Lin Yan stomped on the ground and, like a bolt of lightning, charged straight at Huang Nan, who had the highest cultivation.

"Kill!"

Huang Nan revealed his meridians and slashed forward with a blade.

He used his full strength from the start.

However,

What?

His eyes trembled slightly.

He only saw the youth, who had reached him in an instant, sidestep with extreme speed.

The blade slashed through empty air.

A fierce fist wind struck.

Bang—!

A massive force slammed into his head.

Huang Nan took a heavy blow, his body flying sideways like a cannonball.

"Captain!"

The expressions of the others changed drastically.

The captain was killed in an instant!

How is that possible!

They only had time to let out this cry of alarm.

A blurry shadow flashed before the eyes of Huang Yan and Huang Shi, who were standing at the very front.

Not good!

Lin Yan spread his arms, grabbed their heads, and slammed them together with force.

Bang—!

Another muffled sound.

Blood splattered everywhere.

Two headless corpses fell heavily to the ground.

"You!!"

The remaining three Martial Artists protecting Huang Li let out terrified roars.

But what met them was a horizontal kick that vibrated the air.

Bang—!

Three figures spat blood and flew sideways, crashing heavily to the ground, all signs of life gone.

The entire process

took two seconds.

"Ch-ch-chatter..."

Huang Li, standing alone, had his teeth chattering, his body shaking uncontrollably.

"Don't... don't... kill me..."

He stared at the black-clothed figure standing silently before him, his voice filled with unspeakable fear.

Lin Yan's expression didn't flicker.

"Smack!"

A crisp sound.

Huang Li was slapped hard onto the ground.

He didn't care about his missing teeth or his blood-covered face as he knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically.

"Don't kill me!"

"Boo-hoo!"

"I won't do it again!"

"This Secret Realm is yours!"

"I still have many Spirit Medicines here, I'll give them all to you!"

"Don't kill me!"

Lin Yan raised his leg.

"Lin Yan!!"

A loud shout came from the side.

Huang Nan stood up unsteadily, his voice full of pleading.

"He is the Little Young Master of the Huang Family!"

"You can't kill..."

Lin Yan's raised right leg slammed down.

Crack—!

A crisp sound.

The kneeling Huang Li's head slammed heavily into the ground, and his body slumped powerlessly.

Huang Nan's body trembled, his eyes filled with despair.

It's over!

Tap... tap...

Footsteps sounded softly.

Lin Yan walked up to Huang Nan and took off his baseball cap.

"You recognized me."

Huang Nan closed his eyes in pain.

That's right.

In the instant they clashed, he had recognized this strongest freshman who was famous throughout the Dragon Kingdom from a fleeting glimpse of his profile.

The loud shout just now was also a gamble.

He wanted Lin Yan to be afraid.

But the result was that he lost.

This strongest freshman of the Dragon Kingdom's golden age was too decisive in his killing.

It's only been two days, why has his cultivation broken through again?!

The Huang Family members in the Secret Realm today,

probably not a single one will survive... These thoughts flashed through Huang Nan's mind.

Crack—!

His neck was snapped by Lin Yan.

Just as he thought.

From the moment Lin Yan chose to act, he had no intention of leaving any survivors.

Not to mention Huang Nan's shout just now, which only further solidified his resolve.

The Secret Realm is different from the outside; only the dead are the safest.

As for the trouble that might follow,

well... Old Duan is the principal of a First-Class University, he should be able to handle this little matter, right?

He turned around to ensure everyone was thoroughly dead, then began searching their bodies one by one.

Three Rank 1 Spirit Medicines, one Rank 2 Spirit Medicine.

Lin Yan threw them all into the backpack behind him.

Not bad.

Under the effect of the Tyrant Body, a large quantity can still lead to a qualitative change.

Most importantly, Spirit Medicines of these ranks can be quickly absorbed without consuming charge value.

After finishing this,

he looked ahead and vanished from the spot.
