Chapter 298 Layers of Encirclement
The originally quiet capital, the originally quiet night, was suddenly filled with shouts, curses, and the sound of weapons clashing against each other!
The entire courtyard was illuminated by the torches held by the people who had come to capture Lin Bai.
“Fatty, you!”
The thin man’s face was filled with anger, and his eyes were filled with confusion, grief, and anger. He stood up, grabbed the dagger, and stabbed at the fatty.
The thin man was furious to the extreme, and he was no longer as cautious as before. He attacked head-on, and his body’s speed was pushed to the limit, leaving behind many black shadows.
He and the fatty had gone through many life-and-death situations, and they had endured many hardships. However, the thin man had never thought that the fatty would betray him now.
“Hmph!” The fatty looked at the angry skinny man with a disdainful smile. “Do you think I’m still the same as I was before? Do you know what the City Lord gave me? Do you know what kind of fortune the City Lord gave me?”
The fatty stood where he was and took a step forward. But at this moment, the skinny man was already in front of him. His eyes seemed like they were about to spit fire. He turned his body and kicked out.
“It’s useless!”
Fatty stretched out his right hand and blocked the skinny man’s leg cleanly. There was still a calm smile on his face.
“Why on Earth?!”
The skinny man’s kick was blocked, but his right hand was about to stab into fatty’s chest from the bottom up. This attack was merciless and filled the skinny man’s entire body with all his strength.
“What else can it be? Lin Bai is a devil. Everyone has to kill him!”
Fatty took out a dagger and slashed it from his right abdomen towards his chest. With a bang, it smashed onto the thin man’s dagger.
Kacha!
The thin man’s dagger split into two from the hilt!
Fatty’s attack succeeded. The dagger in his hand loosened and he grabbed the dagger with his back hand. He slashed downwards, intending to cut through the thin man’s chest.
The thin man looked at the cold dagger and quickly pulled back his leg. He wanted to dodge backwards, but he was too late.
Puchi!
Blood spurted out, and a wound appeared from his right shoulder to his left abdomen!
“You, you broke through?!”
The skinny man widened his eyes in disbelief. With his understanding of the fatty, the fatty could not block his attack, let alone attack.
“This is the benefit the City Lord gave me!”
The corner of the fatty’s mouth twitched, and his eyes were filled with a mocking smile.
After saying that, fatty kicked out with a cold kick, and it landed on the thin man’s chest, causing the thin man to fly backwards and crash heavily onto the ground.
Swoosh!
A piercing sound rang out, and fatty’s body took a step back. A cold light also brushed past his chest and flew out!
“Ah!”
A person cried out in pain. There was a blade in his chest, and he fell to the ground.
Fatty dodged the cold beam, but the people chasing Lin Bai ode the courtyard didn’t.
“It’s useless Lin Bai. Things are different now. Do you know what that means?!”
Fatty looked at Lin Bai with disdain.
After interacting with Lin Bai for so many days, he thought he knew everything about Lin Bai. Therefore, he knew that unless Lin Bai sent out three subdued beasts, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
Seeing that Lin Bai was charging at him alone, fatty wasn’t afraid at all. His knees slowly bent, his hands slightly placed in front of him, and his gaze fixed on Lin Bai.
Thump, thump, thump!
However, when fatty saw Lin Bai’s eyes, that pair of calm eyes, that pair of emotionless eyes, made him extremely nervous, as if he was facing a great enemy.
Beads of sweat dripped down one by one, and his heart was pounding non-stop. His body gradually became stiff and sore, and an inexplicable pressure made it hard for fatty to breathe.
The disdain on his face had long disappeared.
But Lin Bai came in front of him in a flash. He only glanced at fatty indifferently, and then flashed by.
Whoosh!
Fatty let out a big sigh of relief. Lin Bai was not aiming at him, but to take the thin man away.
“Go, we can’t stay here any longer. The City Lord will be here soon!”
Lin Bai put the thin man’s hand on his shoulder, and led the thin man to jump high into the air. They came to the ruins of an attic not far away, and looked disdainfully at the people chasing after them.
These people held all kinds of weapons in their hands. They looked at Lin Bai with anger, jealousy, and greed.
“Haha, what a demon!” Lin Bai looked up at the sky and roared.
Not far away, Little Black and Little Green were carrying the seriously injured Bai Xi. The people who were chasing after Lin Bai threw out their weapons when they saw the two little beasts and Bai Xi.
Little Black bared its fangs and brandished its claws: none of you can do it!
Little Black’s figure flashed past, and the sound of metal clashing could be heard. The weapons that were hurtling towards him all fell to the ground. Some were split into two, while others were broken into pieces.
“Hiss! It seems that this spirit beast is not simple. Yet, it listens to a demon like Lin Bai. It’s truly a waste of heavenly treasures!”
“Kill Lin Bai and capture Lin Bai’s Spirit Beast!”
“Whether or not we can help the City Lord clear away the trouble depends on now!”
After the group of people saw Lin Bai’s spirit Beast’s extraordinariness, many people had all sorts of thoughts. There were even some people who didn’t even chase after Lin Bai, only chasing after his spirit beast.
“Little Red!”
Lin Bai looked at the sky. In the night sky, Little Red was like a dazzling blazing sun, flapping its wings as it circled left and right, waiting for Lin Bai’s orders at any time.
After hearing Lin Bai’s order, Little Red gave a knowing cry. “What is that? Run!”
Some people in the crowd cried out in alarm, and many people fled in all directions in panic.
In the sky, a huge ball of fire smashed toward the ground, sweeping up a high temperature that burned everything. The originally pitch-black courtyard was illuminated by the ball of fire as if it was daytime.
The ball of fire smashed toward the most turbulent direction of the crowd, causing the people in the courtyard who were chasing Lin Bai to fall into a huge mess. They fled left and right, and there were even people who accidentally bumped into each other and fell to the ground.
Boom!
Along with the violent collision sound, the ball of fire crashed onto the ground. The ruins and the grass and trees were burning, and the courtyard was engulfed in a sea of fire. Many people’s bodies were ignited, and they jumped into the pool of the courtyard in a panic.
“Wait! Where’s Lin Bai? Something bad has happened. Lin Bai has escaped!”
“I saw Lin Bai running toward the north side of the courtyard. Let’s hurry up and chase after him. We can’t let the demon wreak havoc on the human world!”
“The City Lord is coming soon. We can’t let Lin Bai run away at such a critical moment!”
Lin Bai and the others had long disappeared, and the fatty had knowingly blended into the crowd.
Right at this moment.
A threatening pressure enveloped the entire courtyard and everyone present.
It made people feel terrified and unable to breathe. It was as if their life and death were in the hands of someone else. This caused the noisy scene to instantly fall silent! “Where is demon Lin Bai?!”
“This, this is the City Lord’s voice!”
