Chapter 1752: I’ll Demonstrate Again
Lin Huang was not a nosy person.
However, he thought that he should take things into his own hands when encountering people like the buzzcut middle-aged man.
Although the target he was hunting had nothing to do with him at all, this guy had broken the rules.
Moreover, he might bring about a greater disaster to the entire exploration team.
After all, he was already breaking the rules by killing other dao-level explorers. He might take it a step further and go to the regions with Lords to kill the lord-level explorers that were helpless to defend themselves.
Thinking about this, Lin Huang recalled his two G.o.d’s Figurine’s Combat Souls and followed him secretly.
Lin Huang did not plan to kill him immediately. He just wanted to further confirm whether he was really hunting other explorers or whether he had misunderstood what had just taken place.
Soon enough, the buzzcut middle-aged man appeared some 10,000 kilometers away.
Lin Huang could clearly sense that he was going after two Snow Kingdom members.
It was the two young men, one tall and one short. They were dressed in white robes. It was very easy to identify them.
Judging by the strength of their auras, they should have mastered some 30,000 Dao seals. They were not considered powerful, but they were not weak either.
“Something is closing in on us.” Suddenly, the short young man turned serious.
At that moment, the buzzcut middle-aged man was only hundreds of kilometers away from the two of them. The short young man seemed to have an unique sensing technique that was not hindered by the fog.
As soon as he was done speaking, the tall young man grabbed him and ran quickly in the other direction.
Almost at the same time the two disappeared, a black saber gleam flashed through the place where they were just standing, leaving a ma.s.sive crater on the ground.
The buzzcut middle-aged man did not feel defeated seeing that the attack had missed them.
He licked his lower lip and revealed a happy smile. “They dodged my attack despite only having 30,000 Dao seals. My speculation must be right…”
The two young men from Snow Kingdom had cold sweat from the scare. They ran away frantically at their fastest speed.
“That didn’t seem like an Abyssal monster,” the short young man said through voice transmission.
“He’s a saber cultivator. He should be an explorer.” The tall young man looked rather terrible.
“Why did he attack us out of nowhere? Did you make an enemy out there? And he’s here to kill you?” The short young man asked.
“Stop finding fault with me at such a time. Think about how we should deal with this,” the tall young man said angrily, “Judging by that saber attack, his combat ability should be much more powerful than ours. He might have mastered more than 50,000 Dao seals.”
“How else can we deal with this? We can only run,” the short young man said immediately, “No matter how powerful his probing technique is, it’s impossible for it not to be restricted within this foggy area. As long as we run far enough, we’ll get out of his probing range sooner or later.”
“What if he’s faster than we are?” The tall young man asked.
“Then… we’ll go our separate ways. At least one of us will live.” The short young man raised his brows at the tall young man. “Go peacefully. I’ll definitely avenge you in the future!”
“If one of us is to live, it’ll be me. You have shorter legs, he’ll get to you first,” the tall young man retorted.
…
The two had no idea that the hunter was not chasing after them at the moment. Instead, he was being blocked by a figure.
“Why are you trying to kill them?”
The buzzcut middle-aged man’s expression gradually turned solemn as he looked at the masked man not far away from him.
He could not sense his aura at all, it was as if he did not exist.
He had never had such a strange feeling from anyone before.
“I have a personal grudge with them. Please don’t b.u.t.t into my business.”
“Is that so?” Lin Huang scoffed. “If it’s a personal grudge, tell me what their names are?”
The buzzcut middle-aged man was stumped at the moment.
“What? You don’t even remember your enemies’ names?” Lin Huang continued to ask while smiling.
“We only became enemies after entering this mystic territory. It makes sense that I don’t know their names,” the buzzcut middle-aged man continued to retort.
“What kind of grudge is that then? To make you ignore the exploration’s rules and chase after them directly?”
“That is a personal matter between us. I don’t think I have to inform you of such things.” The buzzcut middle-aged man was still unwilling to spill the beans.
“What about you and that person from the Longevity Tribe? Was that a personal grudge too? And that sorcerer from Infinite, was that a personal grudge too?” Lin Huang asked with a smile, “You should remember their names, right? Or did you only make enemies with them after entering this mystic territory as well? It seems you make enemies easily.”
“Did you follow me?!” The buzzcut middle-aged man looked rather unfriendly.
Although he was not sure of the person’s ability, the rage of having his secret exposed had surpa.s.sed his fear, which gave rise to his killing intent against Lin Huang.
He was secretly convincing himself that someone who had been teleported here should not have too powerful of a combat ability. He must have used some unique technique to conceal his aura on purpose. That was how he was in this aura-less state.
“I wouldn’t bother to do such a thing. I just happened to see you kill the two people from before.”
Clearly, the buzzcut middle-aged man did not believe what Lin Huang said. He was more convinced that his ident.i.ty had been exposed, and Lin Huang had been secretly following him to investigate him.
“It doesn’t matter what your explanation is. I’m going to kill you anyway, so my secret will stay a secret.” As soon as the buzzcut middle-aged man was done speaking, the saber in his hand flashed out.
The black saber gleam shot at an unprecedentedly terrifying speed. It was aimed between Lin Huang’s brows.
He did not hold back with this attack at all. He even performed it at an unusually high speed.
It was at least two to three times faster than the attack that had killed the Infinite sorcerer was.
However, his confident attack at full strength that harnessed the power of some 55,000 Dao seals was crushed the second before it landed between Lin Huang’s brows.
He did not even notice any signs of Lin Huang defending himself either.
It felt as if the attack had been crushed on its own.
“How is that possible…” The buzzcut middle-aged man was stunned.
He could not understand what had just happened before his eyes.
“What did you do?!” Even now, he had not noticed that the person before him had abilities that surpa.s.sed his.
He was more convinced that he had used some sort of illusion technique that made him see things.
He must have created this terrifying scene to scare him.
“Didn’t you see it?”
Though there was a mask covering Lin Huang’s face, the buzzcut middle-aged man could sense the smirk under the mask.
“I’ll demonstrate again, then.”
As soon as Lin Huang was done speaking, he lifted his hand slowly. He then stretched out a finger…
He tapped the air. The next second, the s.p.a.ce where the fingertip touched was destroyed…
The buzzcut middle-aged man had finally seen it clearly now. The finger tap seemed to have been slowed down countless times, but he could clearly feel that he could not dodge such an attack.
Lin Huang did not really slow down the finger tap. He merely accelerated the buzzcut middle-aged man’s senses to the point where he could see the finger tap clearly.
Sensing Lin Huang’s real ability, the buzzcut middle-aged man’s back was drenched in cold sweat instantly…
