Even the malice exuded by an assassin of Cobra’s caliber was no match for the intense hostility emanating from Caesar Du.
"I didn’t want to resort to violence, but you gave me no choice."
Lin Beichen suddenly sighed, speaking with a hint of helplessness.
"Since you know about the rankings in Dragon Country and about Qin Wenwu, why do you not know about me?"
"What do you mean?"
Caesar Du was stunned, he stared at Lin Beichen with confusion, unable to grasp the meaning behind his words.
"You constantly claim that joining the Hell Sect would put me at the pinnacle of Dragon Country, but have you ever noticed who holds the number one spot in the rankings?"
"Number one in the rankings... are you saying... you are the Lin Beichen known for opening the Celestial Gate, revered as the top Mystic Sect master in Dragon Country?"
Caesar Du sneered, about to retort, but his expression suddenly changed.
His smile became stiff, as if he had thought of something terrifying. His eyes widened in shock, and he muttered:
"Lin Beichen, the person at the top of the rankings, also has this name. Could you really be the same person, and not just a namesake?"
For Caesar Du, the culture of Dragon Country was very unfamiliar.
Although Dragon Country’s lands were vast and located at the center of the world, to someone with his mindset, the West was the leader of the world. No matter how powerful the East became, it was still considered a fringe of the world.
If the world had a center, in his eyes, it would undoubtedly be the West.
To him, Dragon Country was merely a fringe land illuminated by the sun, poised to be engulfed at any time.
This was why he never paid much attention to the appearances or names of the people of Dragon Country; to him, they all seemed more or less the same.
Just like ants on the ground, he wouldn’t notice the difference in details between two ants.
The name Lin Beichen, even if not numbering in the millions, must surely be in the tens of thousands.
With over a billion people in Dragon Country, there were countless people with this name walking the streets. How could he have thought they were the same person?
Lin Beichen was the one who had killed Qin Wenwu in Jiangnan Water Village and, in one night, over seventy elite assassins, even eliminating the Superpower User Cobra from the Inner World.
In Dragon Country’s cultivation realm, the name Lin Beichen was gilded; no one dared to underestimate someone bearing this name.
But to those overseas, his name was still too unfamiliar.
Many had only heard of the name, never distinguishing him, even thinking Lin Beichen was no more than that.
"It must be true, only because he possesses the Holy Water can he continuously use it to enhance his genes, resulting in such rapid power increase."
At this thought, a sense of foreboding arose in Caesar Du’s heart.
A Superpower User who could enhance himself infinitely with Holy Water was someone he could never contend with.
Immediately he thought of escaping and formulating another plan to confront Lin Beichen later.
While he was contemplating, he saw a cold glint in Lin Beichen’s eyes, spreading across his body, making Caesar Du suddenly feel a flash of fear.
A pinnacle figure of Dragon Country who could even kill a renowned figure like Qin Wenwu from overseas; how could he escape?
The only strategy left was to fight, as victory in this battle was the only chance at survival.
With this in mind, Caesar Du dared not be careless. He immediately propelled his black thorns, charging towards Lin Beichen.
In Ruan Yunyun’s incredulous gaze, Lin Beichen waved his hand casually, walking forward step by step without any extra movements, yet the black vines around him seemed to be repelled by an invisible force, disappearing in an instant.
All of this testified to Lin Beichen’s extraordinary status.
He was the top master in the rankings and never needed Caesar Du’s help to already stand at the pinnacle of Dragon Country.
With a thunderous explosion, the giant black vine tower beneath Caesar Du’s feet was instantly torn apart, like countless flying spikes shooting at Lin Beichen.
However, these dried woods that could penetrate a stone wall shattered upon contact with Lin Beichen, no matter how ferociously Caesar Du attacked, he couldn’t harm Lin Beichen in the slightest.
"How is he doing this? Is this still a superpower?"
Caesar Du trembled with fear, seeing Lin Beichen still advancing, he screamed.
"Lin Beichen, I am a high-ranking officer in the Hell Sect! If you touch me, you are declaring war on the entire Hell Sect. Our leader, the King of Hell, is an ultimate strongman in the Inner World, and there are eleven other experts like me in the Hell Sect!"
"Is that so? Then bring them all here. I’ll kill them all at once, saving me trouble in the future long nights."
Lin Beichen said calmly, sending out a palm strike.
He was less than five meters from Caesar Du, a distance which was nothing for Lin Beichen.
A strange killing intent and immense pressure invaded every nerve of Caesar Du.
He glared at Lin Beichen, black light spreading in his eyes.
"Lin Beichen, if you don’t stop, this woman will die! I won’t just kill her; I’ll crush her flesh inch by inch."
Saying this, numerous vines entangled around Ruan Yunyun, as if to verify his threat.
Lin Beichen indeed paused.
Caesar Du was delighted, about to further threaten when he heard Lin Beichen coldly say:
"You think you are extraordinary, standing at the pinnacle of humanity, without realizing what true power in this world is like!"
In Ruan Yunyun’s disbelieving eyes, Lin Beichen’s body gradually became transparent, then emitted countless green lights.
Under the envelopment of these green lights, the black vines created by Caesar Du dissipated instantly, reverting into seeds and returning underground.
The nearly destroyed villa on the campus began to restore gradually, the cracks were healing, and the water that had spilled onto the ground flowed back into the cup.
Time seemed to reverse around Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen’s body suddenly exuded a primordial breath.
The energy in Caesar Du’s body dissipated instantly, and every gene within him seemed to cry out in worship.
Kneel, you must kneel!
The urge emanating from his genes constantly reminded Caesar Du.
Caesar Du, the superstar in the scientific world, one of the Twelve Abyss experts of the Hell Sect.
This young man, perceived as highly talented by anyone, couldn’t even wait for Lin Beichen to make a move before his body’s genes completely collapsed.
At first, it was just drops of blood, but as his cells ruptured and his organs bled, Caesar Du finally let out a wail.
Before Ruan Yunyun could react, Caesar Du suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream, and then, with a bang, he shattered into pieces.
No matter how he tried, Caesar Du couldn’t conceive that he was defeated not by Lin Beichen, but by his genetic disorder.
His superpower was extremely strong, but the genetic disorder enriched by his ancestors carried too many original genes.
While these genes normally posed no issue, they instinctively submitted and yearned when faced with Lin Beichen.
These genes would force the host to kneel immediately, and if the host defied the genetic impulse, they would rather self-destruct than give the host any room to resist.
"Mr. Lin."
A voice emerged.
Lin Beichen returned to his senses, silently looking at Ruan Yunyun.
Before Caesar Du’s death, the strength he demonstrated was immense. Although Ruan Yunyun struggled slightly, she was seriously injured.
However, as the green light appeared, a trace of Spiritual Qi entered her body, stabilizing her injuries and healing her wounds.
"Professor Lin, with Caesar Du dying here, will it cause you trouble?"
Ruan Yunyun looked at the blood on the ground, asking with a complex expression.
Caesar Du had died by his genetic disorder.
She couldn’t understand why he died, but she knew it had something to do with Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen was her savior, and she felt obligated to think on his behalf.
"It’s nothing."
Lin Beichen replied calmly, casually conjuring a flame.
The flame burned, instantly consuming all the blood on the ground.
