Ascending to Immortality by Slaying Spirits

Chapter 153 Playing with Real People

Lin Le walked out after returning to the cave exit.

Just as Lin Le was about to leave, he heard a voice say, "Junior, return the storage bags of our Liu family members!"

Lin Le turned his head and looked at Liu Cheng'an, who was speaking. Liu Cheng'an raised his eyebrows and said, "Old man, don't you want your things anymore?"

"Old man?!" Liu Cheng'an's face was so dark it could drip water: "How dare you speak like that? Didn't your elders teach you anything? You ill-mannered brat!"

"Oh, you dare to insult me!" Lin Le exclaimed as if he had heard something unbelievable.

"Why can't I scold you?" Liu Cheng'an sneered. "Is this how your parents taught you to steal other people's property?"

"You're awesome, just you wait!" Lin Le gave Liu Cheng'an a thumbs up.

A bad feeling rose in Liu Cheng'an's heart: "What are you going to do!"

Lin Le simply raised his middle finger, then turned and went back into his cave.

A quick scan with his divine sense revealed astonishment in Lin Le's eyes.

He saw something.

Lin Le touched his brow. Was it because of the changes brought about by the Spirit Jade?

With a change in his footsteps, Lin Le appeared in front of the three people.

It was the Liu family member who held the Duize Mystic Crystal.

"What are you going to do!" one of them shouted in terror.

Lin Le didn't bother arguing with them and knocked the three Liu family members unconscious with a single punch each.

Then he adjusted the Spirit Vision Jade, aimed it at the three of them, and then stomped down on it.

Click! Click!
The sound of bones breaking rang out. Outside, Liu Cheng'an was filled with rage and wanted nothing more than to rush in and beat Lin Le to death.

Chi Lingzi and Zhao Baorui kept their eyes straight ahead and remained silent. After all, it was the Liu family that suffered the loss, not the two of them.

After crushing the three men's limbs, Lin Le dragged them away.

As soon as Lin Le stepped out of the cave entrance, he felt a gust of evil wind.

Without even blinking, Lin Le lifted a member of the Liu family in front of him.

A black rope bound the Liu family member.

Lin Le grabbed the Liu family member by the neck with one hand and sneered at Liu Cheng'an, "Come on, keep going. I want to see if you dare to kill your own family members!"

At the other end of the black rope, Liu Cheng'an's face alternated between pale and flushed before he finally had no choice but to remove the rope: "Let them go."

"You think you can just release them like that? Do you think I'm made of clay?" Lin Le sneered. "Three high-grade spirit stones, or I'll cripple these three bastards!"

"You've already taken their storage bags, what more do you want!" Liu Chengan roared.

Lin Le scoffed, "It's your business of insulting me now, what business is it of theirs!"

"If you're so capable, then go ahead and be useless!" Liu Cheng'an said with a dark face. "I'd like to see if you have the guts!"

Bang! A fist-sized hole was torn open in the abdomen of the Liu family member held by Lin Le.

Seeing Lin Le expressionlessly pull out a bloodless hand from the Liu family member, many people present felt their eyelids twitch.

"Say that again, you old man?" Lin Le said coldly.

"You dare!" Liu Cheng'an roared, his voice filled with madness. He never expected that Lin Le, that little beast, would actually dare!
Boom!

Two more explosions rang out, and everyone's eyelids began to twitch as they looked towards Lin Le. They saw that two other members of the Liu family had their chests crushed by Lin Le's footsteps.

Everyone looked at Lin Le, who had an indifferent expression; clearly, he didn't care about these people's lives.

"Six high-grade spirit stones," Lin Le said casually.

"How dare you..." Liu Cheng'an stopped speaking because Lin Le raised his foot again, aiming it at the lower abdomen of the Liu family member, clearly targeting their foundation this time. "Six stones it is," Liu Cheng'an said through gritted teeth, then threw six spirit stones to Lin Le.

He originally wanted to do something shady, but Lin Le held the Liu family member in front of him, the meaning of which was self-evident: he would use the Liu family member to catch him.

This immediately dissuaded Liu Chengan from taking any tampering.

After Lin Le put away the spirit stones, he kicked the three Liu family members back and then turned to walk towards Zhao Baorui.

After stabilizing the injuries of the three, Liu Chengan growled, "Wen Ziqi, wait a minute, where's the Xuanjing!"

"Mystic Crystal," Lin Le said, tossing the Dui Ze Mystic Crystal in his hand. "I won't give it to you!"

"How dare you!" Liu Cheng'an roared. "The three of us agreed to split the Xuanjing equally."

"It was agreed that it would be split equally, but it didn't say who it would go to!" Lin Le sneered. "General Zhao, isn't that right?"

Zhao Baorui glanced at Lin Le and said calmly, "Wen Ziqi, return the Xuanjing to Mr. Liu."

Upon hearing this, Liu Chengan's gloomy expression eased somewhat, but the next moment, his face flushed red.

"Furthermore," Zhao Baorui said, "Mr. Liu, please apologize first. Wen Ziqi is the Prince's brother-in-law. Are you saying he's ill-mannered? Are you insulting the Prince?"

"Good, good, good!" Liu Chengan said three times. He looked coldly at Lin Le and said, "Junior, give me the Xuanjing, and I can let bygones be bygones for what just happened."

Lin Le held the Xuanjing crystal and sneered, "Apologize!"

Liu Chengan's face turned as red as if it could drip blood, and with a click, his body suddenly trembled.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that Lin Le had crushed a piece of ice crystal that had formed at some unknown time.

The ice crystals scattered into pieces and fell into the river, disappearing without a trace.

Under Liu Chengan's watchful gaze, Lin Le tossed the Xuanjing crystal around, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Liu Chengan took a deep breath and finally said, "I'm sorry!"

"Hahaha!" Lin Le laughed heartily after hearing this. "That's right, old man. If you lose, you have to accept the consequences. You've lived most of your life and you still haven't figured this out."

Hearing Lin Le's laughter, Liu Cheng'an's face grew increasingly grim, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.

He vowed that once he achieved Nascent Soul stage, he would definitely kill this "Wen Ziqi"!
After returning to the camp, Lin Le tossed the Xuanjing away, a sly smile on his face: "Here you go."

After saying that, Lin Le threw the Xuanjing (mysterious crystal) out.

Just as Liu Chengan was about to reach for it, a loud bang suddenly erupted on the river surface, and a blue and white dragon snake shot out and swallowed the Xuanjing.

Then, with a flick of his body, he vanished into thin air.

Everyone stared in astonishment at this scene. They never expected that someone would dare to snatch food from the jaws of three Golden Core cultivators.

Liu Cheng'an's face turned from red to green, then back to red, and he suddenly roared: "You beast!"

What he swallowed was his hope of becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator!

Liu Cheng'an swept his divine sense around, but found no trace of the dragon and snake from before.

But then he spotted an unexpected figure and roared, "Guo Dalong!"

A flying sword shot out, emitting a piercing sound as it cut through the air.

Boom! A wave surged up, and a tail shot out, sending the flying sword flying back. A low growl followed: "That's not a demon from my Dongbo Lake!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Liu Cheng'an roared. "Where else in Yizhou could raise such a snake demon besides your Dongbo Lake!"

"Besides, you said you would take the benefits and then leave the group alone. What are you up to by hiding here now?!"

"Hand over the Mystic Crystal, or you'll die here today!" Liu Cheng'an roared madly.
