Chapter 595: Don’t stop until I say so, just keep killing!
"Too arrogant, too proud, too unrestrained. Your end will be tragic."
Zou Ju shook her head, looking at Lin Mu as if he were already a dead man.
"Old Kong, I’m powerless to help now."
Lin Mu’s words had just offended half of the prominent families present. Not only that, but even Kong Lin’s position might be shaken because of him.
"The Shen Family? The Feng Family? The three clans and five families of the Southeast Five Provinces? And you, Zou Ju? You, Demon King Shen Cheng?" A brilliant light flashed in Lin Mu’s eyes as his divine aura burst forth. "Do you all really think I’m doomed to die?"
"You use the Spirit Seer to pressure me? You claim that my supporters will be buried with me?" Lin Mu’s face was full of disdain, as if a god looking down upon ants. "But in my eyes, what are any of you? I only need to say the word to have you all killed!"
His words seethed with a terrifying killing intent.
"You’re on the brink of death and still spouting such ignorance! Lin Mu, you have truly dug your own grave!" Huang Ning shook her head. "We could have been friends, but alas, you’ve brought a calamity upon yourself so great that even I can’t save you! I could have invited you into my Huang Family, and you might have even become a powerful figure one day. But you are far too arrogant and ignorant! Not only will you die, but your woman will also pay a painful price for your foolishness!"
Huang Ning’s resentment toward Lin Mu had been festering ever since Tiger’s Lair Mountain. Today, she wanted nothing more than for Lin Mu to die a miserable death and pay a hundredfold for his transgressions.
Glancing at her, Lin Mu shook his head slightly.
"I only intended to kill you. But since you repeatedly bring up my woman, not only will you die, but your Huang Family will suffer because of your actions!" Murderous intent erupted in his eyes. "I’ve said it before: if there is a next time, I will take my sword to Harbor Island and annihilate your entire Huang Family! Today, I will spare your life for now. But soon I will visit Harbor Island myself and let you witness with your own eyes how your Huang Family is destroyed by my hand!"
Lin Mu’s words completely enraged Huang Ning. "You’re still spouting such nonsense at a time like this? My Huang Family has a hundred-year heritage, a foundation you could never even imagine! Destroy my Huang Family? You? You’re not worthy!"
"You people are always so high and mighty, looking down on everyone, only to suck up to your so-called gods," Lin Mu said, shaking his head. "But you’ve all forgotten one thing. What did that so-called god you worship call me just a moment ago?"
Huang Ning and the others sneered.
Lin Mu suddenly looked up toward the Cold Bridge in the sky. "Old dog, get down here now! I was the one who let you regain your physical body, and I can just as easily annihilate your Divine Soul!"
"Master, please calm your anger!"
The next moment, a figure appeared before Lin Mu and collapsed to his knees with a thud. It was the Spirit Seer!
"I heard you can kill me with a single finger?" Lin Mu sneered, stepping on the Spirit Seer’s head.
"Lin Mu, how dare you!"
Before the Spirit Seer could speak, Huang Ning shot to her feet and pointed at Lin Mu, but no one paid her any mind.
"I also heard you want my woman to be your maid?" The killing intent in Lin Mu’s eyes grew colder. "Where did you get the courage, the audacity, to call yourself a god and speak of killing me?"
Everyone stared at the scene, dumbfounded. The esteemed Spirit Seer was being trampled underfoot like a dead dog, and as the young man questioned him, he didn’t dare utter a single word in response!
"That is absolutely not true!" The Spirit Seer’s expression was one of pure terror. He lay on the ground like a dead dog, not daring to move, his voice trembling. "They were the ones spouting nonsense! I never said such things. Besides, Master, you are right. I am just your dog. I revere you as a god! How could I ever utter such blasphemous words?"
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Is this the Spirit Seer? Is this the entity we revered as a god?
Shock and fear filled their hearts, and a deep sense of unease appeared on every face.
"This is bad!" someone suddenly screamed, their face turning deathly pale with despair.
The others present suddenly remembered what had happened earlier. They had called for the Spirit Seer for a long time, but he hadn’t appeared. Yet, when Lin Mu simply counted to one, the Spirit Seer materialized.
They all recalled his words.
*Master, spare my life, this old dog is here!*
That was it! Those were the exact words! And now, the Spirit Seer was kneeling before Lin Mu, truly acting like an old dog.
Some people felt their knees go weak, their lips trembling as they tried to sneak away. But the moment one turned to flee, he exploded into a mist of blood.
Those nearby shrieked in terror, their faces masks of panic.
A deathly cold smile spread across Lin Mu’s lips. "I said you are all going to die today. Whoever dares to run, their entire family dies!"
And so, everyone knelt on the ground again, not daring to move.
Huang Ning was stunned. The Shen Family was dumbfounded. The Feng Family was terrified. Shen Lian and Shen Cheng were frozen in fear, while Zou Ju and the others stared on in shocked horror.
What in the world was going on?
"Master... Master, I had nothing to do with what happened! I didn’t realize it was you!" the Spirit Seer pleaded. "These ants borrowed my name to offend you—their crime is punishable by death! Master, for you to act personally would be beneath you. Allow this old dog to handle it so you don’t have to dirty your hands."
I’m so afraid... I regret this so much. I recognized him from the start. How could I dare to fight my Master? That would be suicide! That’s why I didn’t hesitate to run. But just after I had fled a kilometer, the air around me froze, and I couldn’t move. I knew it was the Master, refusing to let me leave. At his summons, I had no choice but to return. Listening to them all insult my Master... I was scared out of my wits, completely consumed by despair. Especially that Qiu Yi and Huang Ning! What absolute fools! They forced me into a confrontation with my Master! But there’s still a chance to fix this! I just have to take care of these little troublemakers for him! That’s it, I have to kill!
"Master, rest assured!" the Spirit Seer declared. "This old dog will ensure your satisfaction! I will leave no loose ends!"
Knowing Lin Mu’s terrifying methods, he knew he had to make the right choice.
"Very well." Lin Mu lifted his foot. "You’ve earned yourself a few more minutes of life. Now, let’s see your loyalty. But if I am even the slightest bit dissatisfied, you will still die."
"No, no, never!" the Spirit Seer said hastily. "I will be sure to satisfy you, Master! I would never dare to be perfunctory!"
The Spirit Seer stood up and walked over to Qiu Yi.
"Spirit Seer, spare me..." Qiu Yi was full of regret, his face contorted with fear as he begged for his life.
"Qiu Yi, you were hopelessly arrogant and dared to offend my Master. Remember not to make the same mistake in your next life."
The Spirit Seer dared not let Qiu Yi speak another word. With a single kick, the Grandmaster of the Bagua Sect exploded and died.
Everyone was shocked. They were terrified and filled with regret.
"Master, are you satisfied?" the Spirit Seer asked cautiously.
"Continue," Lin Mu said indifferently. "Unless I tell you to stop, you will keep killing."
