Black Book

Chapter 373 She is... Destiny
The atmosphere that had just been relaxed suddenly became tense and confrontational again. Shangguan Yi, who was sitting at the top, narrowed his eyes, a fierce and cold light flashed in his pupils, and he swept around with the eyes of an eagle and a wolf.

"Who's talking?! Stand up!"

"You told me to stand, so I should stand? No way!"

The joking words echoed among the crowd, and everyone instantly realized that something was wrong.

This kind of contemptuous tone doesn't seem like something a participant would say.

Being in the Demon Cult's Tiandu Peak headquarters, even the most arrogant underworld bosses have to give Shangguan Yi some face, not to mention those lower-ranking disciples on the periphery.

And the voice of talking came from the outside of the crowd!
Everyone's eyes were scanning like radar, but they could not capture the location of the erratic sound source.

"Where did this rat come from? He is hiding his head but showing his tail."

With a sneer, Shangguan Yi raised his eyebrows, and a shadow of a demon with a green face and fangs, with dark flames burning all over his body, appeared behind him.

An invisible sense of oppression suddenly enveloped the entire summit of Tiandu Peak. Under the coverage of the energy with no blind spots, Shangguan Yi immediately caught a hint of abnormality.

hum~
The materialized sight was cast towards the corner, and the shadow of the demon behind him glared at the same time. Everyone who saw it was frightened and subconsciously dispersed, leaving behind an abrupt figure.

"Tsk, you're so useless. You get scared to death when someone glares at you..."

"You are so cowardly and yet you still want to kill Duke Yu?"

"Be alert and don't lose points!"

Seeing the young man in black holding the little girl and looking around, joking and teasing as if no one was around, everyone on the stage couldn't help but frown.

Shangguan Yi's martial arts realm has reached perfection, and the magic form formed by his essence, energy and spirit is even more ferocious. Even masters of the same rank cannot remain calm under his pressure, let alone such a light-hearted ridicule.

"Who are you?!"

Faced with the questioning, the young man in black tiptoed, drew a graceful arc and leaped to the center of the crowd. He ignored everyone's fierce gazes and smiled leisurely.

"I am Li Lin, Duke of Yu. I heard that you were discussing how to deal with me, so I came here to help you with some ideas."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expressions changed drastically, and more than a dozen terrifying pressures rose into the sky.

Without any hesitation, more than a dozen first-grade masters attacked together, and the devastating attack instantly fell on Zhu Haomiao.

Under the agitation of destructive energy, an invisible shadow of an ancient giant tripod revealed its true form, covering the young man's body by one foot and easily blocking all attacks.

boom!
They flew backwards at a speed even faster than when they came. The irresistible backlash made everyone spit blood, with unbelievable despair in their eyes.

From the brief contact just now, they felt a vast and boundless majesty.

It was as if they were not attacking a real [person], but [all living things in the world].

This is definitely not a level that humans can achieve!

With enlightenment in their hearts, everyone looked at the tripod-shaped shadow around the black-clothed boy that was gradually fading away, and gritted their teeth in bitterness and despair.

"The sacred tripod that guards the country... the man of destiny..."

"So this is why he defeated the strong with the weak..."

Holding the national treasure, he represents the will of the country. Attacking him is attacking the entire country, which is totally cheating!

However, Zhu Haomiao didn't care about their sad and angry looks at all. He looked around and chuckled.

"I gave you a chance but you didn't make any use of it."

Facing the ridicule of the young man in black, one of them couldn't help but roared, "How can you be called a hero if you rely on the power of a divine weapon? Fight us with real swords and guns if you dare!"

"Tsk tsk, a group of first-class masters who have been famous for many years besieged a junior like me, you have the nerve to do that?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present froze, and they realized that the person standing in front of them was just a sixteen-year-old junior, but because his notoriety was so terrifying, people subconsciously ignored his age.

Seeing everyone speechless, Zhu Haomiao sneered, walked to the top, and put the little Loli in his arms on the main seat where Shangguan Yi had just sat.

"However, I am a kind person, so I will give you a chance today..."

Turning around, a dark eight-sided Han sword turned from virtual to real, slowly condensed at the side of the young man, and floated lightly.

shuh~
With a thought, a huge amount of true energy was poured into the [Rahu Sword], and instantly split into more than a dozen lifelike sword-shaped energy.

"open!"

boom!
The figure of the young man in black floated up uncontrollably, with sword energy lingering around him, turning into a long dragon and attacking everyone present.

"No!"

More than a dozen first-rank masters had their eyes bloodshot. Those who were qualified to be brought by them were all the sect's core disciples, and Li Lin's attitude was to kill them all.

Clang, Clang, Clang~
All kinds of swords, spears, halberds and sword energy collided with each other, making a crisp sound of metal clashing and sending sparks all over the sky.

But what no one expected was that Li Lin's out-of-body energy did not collapse at the first touch, but like a solid entity, it drew a circle after being knocked away and attacked everyone again.

"Come on!"

Faced with the overwhelming sword shadows, more than a dozen first-rank masters joined forces to stop them, looking at the black-clothed young man floating in the void as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

The arrogant young man had a mocking and contemptuous smile on his face, as if he was looking down on a group of struggling ants, which instantly made everyone furious.

"You bastard! How arrogant!"

Using attack instead of defense, everyone worked together tacitly to surround and kill the girl, and one of them even cast a vicious look at the nervous and excited little Loli.

Judging from the intimate attitude between the two just now, this little girl must be an important relative of Li Lin!
As long as I can capture her, maybe I can force him to surrender!

Although he couldn't understand why Li Lin just put her aside and left her without protection, he saw the enemy's weakness and turned into a ghostly afterimage, and attacked the little Loli without any martial ethics.

There was no reaction at all. Zhao Nuo's attention was all focused on Zhu Haomiao and he was completely unaware of the danger.

But just as the five eagle-claw-like fingers attacked her neck, the exquisite little tripod in her arms trembled slightly, and a tripod-shaped shadow invisible to others enveloped her body.

Click~
Fearing that Li Linzang might have some backup plan, the attacker did not hold back at all and collided heavily with the tripod-shaped shadow.

It was like hitting a steel wall at a speed of several hundred kilometers per hour. An irresistible recoil came from the hands, and the five fingers that were originally as hard as black iron cracked and instantly twisted into a knot.

boom!
He flew backwards at a faster speed than when he came, and the blood from his mouth spurted out like a fountain.

The attacker turned into a straight black shadow and penetrated into the palace dozens of meters away, plowing a deep groove on the floor, and finally stopped after hitting the thick wall.

"No... that's not right. She is... the destiny..."

It was not until this moment that the man realized that the person holding the national treasure was not Li Lin, but the seemingly harmless little Lolita in his arms.
