Chapter 289:
As Lin Yan watched them exchanging blows, the ripples of their laws emanated from them were far more insightful than any rubbing of those inheritance manuals.
Key point was that although he wasn’t clear about what kind of inheritance manual this middle-aged man was practicing, the mere ripples emanating from him made Lin Yan ecstatic. He really liked these law ripples, and even the life editor inside him seemed to stir.
These signs were enough to indicate that the inheritance manual practiced by this middle-aged man might be his chance to pass this trail.
Whoosh!
While Lin Yan was getting engrossed, the fight between Da Tiechui and the middle-aged man had already ended. The middle-aged man crushed Da Tiechui's twin hammers with his bare hands.
Without her weapons, Da Tiechui was immediately at a disadvantage against the middle-aged man. Seeing that she was no match, Da Tiechui anxiously looked back at Lin Yan, who stood there in a daze. Meanwhile, the others around them, seeing Da Tiechui's defeat, began fleeing into the surrounding forests.
"Lin Yan! What are you spacing out for? Run!"
Da Tiechui shouted at Lin Yan, who remained frozen in place. The middle-aged man exuded a murderous aura. It was clear that if Da Tiechui died, he wouldn’t spare anyone here. That’s why Da Tiechui had urged Lin Yan to leave with everyone from the start.If Lin Yan had left earlier, with Da Tiechui holding back the middle-aged man, there might have been a chance for everyone, especially Lin Yan, to escape. But now things were different. Da Tiechui had lost her weapons and couldn’t hold him back anymore.
Lin Yan’s escape seemed almost impossible.
Sure enough, as Da Tiechui cried out, the middle-aged man's figure flickered and appeared directly in front of Lin Yan. Seeing Da Tiechui’s repeated reminders for Lin Yan to flee, the middle-aged man clearly noticed Da Tiechui's concern for Lin Yan and thus attacked him without hesitation.
"Lin Yan, be careful!" Da Tiechui's face turned grim as the middle-aged man attacked Lin Yan.
However, a shocking scene unfolded in the next moment.
Lin Yan, who had seemed to be standing there helplessly, suddenly waved his hand and effortlessly caught the middle-aged man's wrist, even though ripples of the law of destiny began to emanate from him.
"You... how is this possible?"
The middle-aged man was utterly stunned, his eyes widened as he stared at Lin Yan. It took him a while to stammer out his disbelief. He couldn’t comprehend how this seemingly ordinary man could so easily block his attack.
His face changed, and without another word, he retreated like lightning and attacked Lin Yan from a different direction. But this time, before he could reach Lin Yan, Lin Yan suddenly kicked him in the chest, sending him flying.
Silence!
Everyone around, including the fleeing refugees, stopped in their tracks. Especially Da Tiechui, who looked at Lin Yan in disbelief, her pretty eyes scanning him up and down.
She vividly remembered their first encounter. She had gone down the mountain to rob some valuable items for food for the refugees and had met Lin Yan in the wild. Seeing his decent appearance and attire, she had tried to rob him. But she got nothing from him and, knowing he had nowhere to go, took him in out of pity.
To her, Lin Yan was just an ordinary person fallen on hard times, and never imagined he was a master far stronger than her.
Lin Yan paid no mind to the thoughts of those around him. After kicking the middle-aged man away, he approached him. Although the middle-aged man had also comprehended the world’s inherited manual, their cultivation bases were worlds apart. Lin Yan could easily defeat him without doing much.
He refrained from killing the middle-aged man immediately because he wanted to find out which sect’s inheritance manual he was practicing.
However, as Lin Yan approached the middle-aged man to question him, the man’s eyes widened, he spat a mouthful of blood, and his aura rapidly faded.
"Suicide?"
Lin Yan was taken aback and stared at the corpse. This man was too decisive, killing himself before Lin Yan could even ask a question. Lin Yan had planned to spare him if his answers were satisfactory. But now, with the middle-aged man dead, Lin Yan couldn’t ask anything further.
"He was an assassin. If they fail their mission, they commit suicide immediately."
While Lin Yan stared at the body in silence, Da Tiechui's voice came from behind. This revelation made Lin Yan's eyes light up.
He had noticed from their earlier conversation that Da Tiechui clearly knew the middle-aged man's background. So, he could learn about it from her.
Turning to Da Tiechui, Lin Yan smiled and asked, “Da Tiechui, you must know his background, right? Which sect does he belong to?”
During their time together, Lin Yan had addressed her directly as Da Tiechui. But now, hearing him call her by this name, her eyebrows furrowed, and she spoke sharply, “You clearly have incredible strength, far superior to us. Even in major sects, you’d be at an elder status. Why disguise yourself as an ordinary person and stay with me? Are you... are you also sent by that person?”
The more she spoke, the more her expression soured, her body trembling slightly.
Seeing her reaction, Lin Yan felt helpless and said, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. I’ve never disguised myself. I’ve always been like this.”
Seeing Da Tiechui's wary look, Lin Yan sighed and continued, “If you don’t trust me, just tell me the background of that middle-aged man, and I’ll leave immediately.”
Da Tiechui's expression relaxed a bit, but she still looked suspicious. “Why do you want to know?”
“I’m interested in the inheritance manual he practiced and want to check it out,” Lin Yan said casually.
At this, Da Tiechui recalled the many basic cultivation manuals Lin Yan had collected. She had thought he had bought them out of curiosity, but now, witnessing his formidable strength, she had changed her mind.
“Could it be that his realm has reached the point of understanding all laws, searching for stronger inheritance manuals?” she thought.
She then slowly said, “That middle-aged man was an assassin from the Heavenly Sect. Naturally, he practiced the Heavenly Sect’s inherited inheritance manual.”
The Heavenly Sect.
Lin Yan frowned and pondered. He had been in this world long enough to understand its structure. There were no countries, only sects, each like a nation ruling various regions of the planet. The Heavenly Sect was one of the many sects and a particularly powerful one.
“The Heavenly Sect's inheritance manual should be called the Great Destiny Divine Art,” he thought. Nodding to Da Tiechui, he thanked, “Thanks for the information. I’ll be leaving now. Maybe we’ll meet again if fate allows.”
Although Lin Yan spoke of meeting again, he knew that whether he passed this trail or not, he would leave this planet. It was unlikely for Lin Yan to see her again.
With a casual farewell, Lin Yan turned and walked down the mountain. Watching him leave, she stood in a daze and stared at his departing figure.
After a long time, she leapt back into her stone house. When she reappeared, her rugged attire was gone, replaced by a blue combat outfit, making her look elegant.
“Boss Tiechui.”
Seeing her change, the remaining refugees gathered around her and were worried.
Da Tiechui glanced at them and said loudly, “I’m leaving. You can stay here or leave as you wish.”
Without further words, she leapt up and headed in the direction Lin Yan had gone.
