Chapter 590: After killing you, I must continue to kill!
"The second one!"
As his voice faded, Lin Mu vanished once more. The next moment, he reappeared in front of another Martial Artist and unleashed another palm strike. The man had no time to react before he was reduced to a pulp of flesh.
If killing Fu San was luck, what about this time?
Panic swept through the crowd. Some began to slowly back away, preparing to flee.
"Don’t be hasty. None of you are getting away!"
A cold smile touched Lin Mu’s lips. With a grasping motion of his hands, two men from the crowd were seized by an invisible force and smashed violently into each other.
THUD!
With a sickening, dull sound, both of them exploded. Having killed two more in quick succession, Lin Mu had no intention of holding back. He began walking toward the man who had humiliated Qin Luoli.
He’s going to kill again?
"Stop, you villain!" Qiu Yi bellowed, his eyes glacial as he stared at Lin Mu. "Such murderous intent. Do you truly believe no one here can stop you?"
Lin Mu gave a chilling smile. "I intend to kill. Who dares to stop me?"
"Arrogant fool!" Qiu Yi sneered. "To kill you, I don’t even need to lift a finger myself!" The murderous glint in his eyes intensified. "Go, kill him!"
ROAR!
The ferocious tiger at his feet instantly stood and leaped from the arena, pouncing toward Lin Mu. Its speed was incredible, and the imperious aura of the king of beasts made everyone’s face pale. This tiger of Qiu Yi’s was no ordinary animal. It had often sparred with him and had watched him practice for years, gaining spiritual intelligence in the process. Forget Inner Strength experts; even a master halfway to the Grandmaster Realm would have trouble fending it off. As for killing Lin Mu? That would be child’s play.
"Scram!"
However, facing the massive tiger, Lin Mu’s eyes shone with a brilliant light as he barked the cold command.
WHIMPER!
The tiger’s body shuddered violently. It froze in mid-air before plummeting to the ground, where it prostrated itself, trembling. Witnessing this, the spectators’ pupils contracted.
Master Qiu’s mount, terrified into submission by a single word from Lin Mu? Is that really a tiger? It’s more timid than a cat!
"Judging by your savage aura, you must have devoured countless people. Today, I will eliminate this threat to the public!" Lin Mu snorted, lifting his leg to kick the tiger’s head.
"You dare!" Qiu Yi’s expression changed drastically, his face contorting with ferocious killing intent. "If you dare kill it, I will annihilate your entire clan!"
A mount was a reflection of its master’s dignity! If his mount was killed, wouldn’t he, its master, be slapped squarely in the face?
"You think I don’t dare?" Lin Mu sneered viciously and kicked.
SPLAT!
The tiger’s head burst like a watermelon. The spray of blood sent the surrounding crowd crying out in shock as they scrambled back even farther.
Too brutal! Too ferocious!
This is going to offend Qiu Yi completely!
"This kid is dead meat, daring to kill Master Qiu’s mount!"
"He’s courting death! No one can save him now!"
"You... you have some nerve!" With another furious shout, the Feng Family Head pointed at Lin Mu. "You’re outrageously bold! How dare you kill Master Qiu’s mount? You’re simply tired of living!"
"It was just a beast throwing its master’s weight around. If I killed it, so be it," Lin Mu said coldly. "Even the so-called Grandmaster you speak of... killing him would just be like slaughtering one more animal!"
Lin Mu walked toward the arena step by step. His utterly cold words made the expressions of all who heard them change drastically.
"This is bad!" Seeing Lin Mu actually going to challenge Qiu Yi, Kong Lin’s face fell, his worry palpable.
"Grandfather, what is it?" Kong Ying’s heart tightened.
"I just remembered. I think Qiu Yi went into seclusion to master some divine technique. For him to emerge now, he must have succeeded. Instructor Lin is in danger," Kong Lin said with a grave expression.
"Ah? Then what should we do?" Kong Ying’s eyes reddened with anxiety.
"What’s there to worry about?" Qin Luoli, however, just pursed her lips. "You’re fussing over nothing."
"Instructor Lin is your husband! Aren’t you worried at all?" Kong Ying asked indignantly.
"You all underestimate my man." Gazing at the figure on the platform, Qin Luoli’s eyes filled with profound love. "He is incredibly powerful. He was in the past, he is now, and in the future... he will be even more so!"
***
"You’ve surprised me." For the first time, Qiu Yi sized Lin Mu up properly, but then he shook his head slightly. "But a young man who is too sharp and conspicuous will ultimately pay a heavy price."
"You talk too much," Lin Mu said, his hands behind his back. "I saw you eating quite a bit earlier, so you must be full. Since that’s the case, it’s time for you to be on your way."
At these words, Qiu Yi’s expression turned completely grim. The others just shook their heads. This Lin Mu was simply beyond arrogant. The man was the Sect Leader of the Bagua Sect, a long-established figure. He might not be on the Heavenly List, but that was only because he disdained it, not because he lacked the strength.
How old is Lin Mu? Does he really think he’s something special just for killing a few minor Martial Artists? So contemptuous.
Huang Ning was inwardly ecstatic. Lin Mu, oh Lin Mu, you will finally pay the price for your arrogance. Not just you, but your woman, too. Her fate will be even more miserable than yours! If only you hadn’t been so arrogant. If you’d just agreed to become a servant of the Huang Family, fight for them, and offer up your woman to Master Qiu... then I could have pleaded for you. I could have asked Master Qiu to spare your worthless life. But clearly, you didn’t make the right choice.
"Young man, you are too arrogant," Hong Lie said coldly from below before Qiu Yi could even speak. "Such disrespect is a monstrous crime. You will not be leaving this place today!"
"And who are you supposed to be?" Lin Mu retorted coldly.
"I am Hong Lie of the Form-Intention Fist!" Hong Lie replied, his face stern as he stared unflinchingly at Lin Mu.
"Never heard of you. If you object, you can come at me together," Lin Mu said, showing him no regard whatsoever.
"Ignorant child!" Hong Lie snorted. "You should worry about surviving Master Qiu first. If by some chance you do, I wouldn’t mind teaching you a lesson on behalf of your elders. Of course, that includes your woman. For someone so cold-blooded and cruel, killing her would be an act of righteousness."
Hong Lie’s tone was incredibly arrogant, born from the confidence in his own strength.
However, the look in Lin Mu’s eyes grew colder still. Hong Lie’s words had touched his Ni Lin.
"After I’m done with him, if you don’t have the guts to come up here, I will annihilate your entire family!" Lin Mu pointed at Hong Lie. "Not just your family, but the entire Form-Intention Fist lineage! I will wipe it from existence!"
His killing intent was so tangible it was bone-chilling, causing all who felt it to shiver.
"Good!" Hong Lie’s own killing intent flared. "Let everyone here bear witness! Ignorant whelp, if you actually win, I will deal with you myself!"
He actually dares to threaten to annihilate my entire family? Sheer insanity!
Lin Mu had no desire to speak further. He pointed at Qiu Yi and commanded, "Come forward and face your death! After I slaughter you, I have more people to kill!"
