Fairy Eye

Han Lin had not learned any movement techniques, but fortunately, he was now at the second level of Qi Refining. With years of absorbing spiritual energy, his body was quite agile. When he saw the golden light coming, he dodged it based on his body's instincts.

Seeing this, Zeng Ping realized he had miscalculated and knew he could do nothing to Han Lin, so he ignored Yue Qingshan and turned to run away.

Han Lin's murderous intent was already evident. How could he let Zeng Ping leave? He took a step forward and chased after Zeng Ping. At the same time, he flipped his hand and threw a fireball at Zeng Ping's back.

Zeng Ping was terrified, but he had no time to dodge. He heard a loud thud and was knocked heavily to the ground.

Before Zeng Ping could get up, Han Lin grabbed a rock and rushed forward, kneeling on Zeng Ping's back with one foot and pressing down on the back of Zeng Ping's neck with the other.

With his other hand raised high, he slammed the stone down hard, under Zeng Ping's horrified gaze.

Snapped!

The sound of a skull shattering rang out.

"ah--!"

Zeng Ping let out a piercing scream.

Han Lin panicked and, without thinking twice, began to smash Zeng Ping's head repeatedly. Blood and bone fragments flew everywhere.

He finally stopped breathing heavily when he could no longer hear Zeng Ping's movements.

Looking at Zeng Ping's head again, which had been smashed to pieces, his heart pounded wildly and his limbs felt weak.

"Murder! Murder!" Yue Qingshan, seeing this, was so frightened that he wet his pants and tried to escape as fast as he could.

Hearing the shouts, Han Lin immediately came to his senses and grabbed the stone to chase after Yue Qingshan.

"No, don't kill me, don't kill me..."

"Brother Han, I was wrong, I was wrong, please, please..."

When Yue Qingshan saw Han Lin running towards him covered in blood, he immediately lost the courage to run away and cried and begged for mercy.

Han Lin and Yue Qingshan weren't exactly mortal enemies; it was just that Yue Qingshan was a rather snobbish person who often verbally mocked Han Lin.

Seeing this, Han Lin couldn't help but soften his heart. But then he thought that he had already killed Zeng Ping, and if Yue Qingshan were to reveal this, he would be in danger! So he steeled his heart, rushed forward, and delivered a powerful blow to Yue Qingshan's head.

Yue Qingshan screamed in agony as a large hole opened in his forehead, blood gushing out. He clutched Han Lin's sleeve tightly, pleading, "Han...Brother Han, don't kill me..."

"Blame yourself!"

"At first, I also wanted to treat you as a friend." Han Lin raised the rock high and slammed it down on Yue Qingshan's forehead again.

Yue Qingshan opened his mouth, his eyes widened, and then he didn't make a sound.

After killing two people, Han Lin's fear subsided considerably, and he calmed down.

He carefully cleaned up the scene, then carried one on each shoulder and headed towards the undeveloped wilderness to the north.

Half an hour later, Han Lin emerged from the darkness and appeared under the dim moonlight of the street lamp.

But at that moment, another person appeared under the streetlight.

It was a young man wearing a jade crown. He looked at Han Lin, who emerged from the darkness, and asked in a deep voice, "Han Lin, where have you been! Where are Zeng Ping and Yue Qingshan?"

The reason he only came now is to avoid suspicion.

Meanwhile, he secretly searched Han Lin's stone house, hoping to find the spirit stones that Han Lin had "hidden," but he found nothing.

But when he arrived, he found that not only was Han Lin nowhere to be found, but Zeng Ping and Yue Qingshan were also nowhere to be seen.

Han Lin frowned, then said calmly, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Really? What were you doing just now?" Zhao Ruiling asked, squinting his eyes.

"I needed to pee, so I peed."

As Han Lin spoke, he walked to the cart, pulled it up, and walked forward. He appeared indifferent on the surface, but was actually secretly wary of Zhao Ruiling.

Zhao Ruiling is a veteran Qi Refining Level 2 cultivator, and he'll be reaching Level 3 soon.

He struggled even to deal with Zeng Ping, so he had no confidence in defeating Zhao Ruiling. Therefore, he tried to avoid fighting Zhao Ruiling as much as possible.

"You need to pee? You peed your clothes! Why are you all wet?" Zhao Ruiling followed Han Lin forward.

They thought Han Lin might have been forced into jumping into the river by Zeng Ping and the other man.

Han Lin glanced at Zhao Ruiling indifferently: "I was dirty and sweaty, so I took a bath in the river. What, is that any of your business?"

"Hehe, okay, okay."

Zhao Ruiling grinned maliciously: "I don't care about any of that, Han Lin, just tell me honestly, where did you hide the spirit stones and points cards?"

Han Lin was taken aback and stopped: "What do you mean by that, Senior Brother Zhao?"

Seeing this, Zhao Ruiling stopped pretending: "To tell you the truth, I just went to your room and turned it upside down, but I couldn't find any spirit stones!"

"Speak, tell me where the spirit stones are hidden, and I'll give you a chance to submit to me, otherwise..."

"What else?"

Han Lin slowly untied the rope from his shoulders.

"Stubborn to the end!"

Zhao Ruiling's face darkened, and with a wave of his hand, a cold light flew towards Han Lin, intending to capture Han Lin first and then slowly interrogate him.

Han Lin was prepared and threw a fireball at Zhao Ruiling's chest.

The eerie blue light and the fireball grazed each other as they flew toward Han Lin and Zhao Ruiling, who then rolled away simultaneously to avoid each other's attacks.

"Qi Refining Level Two!"

Zhao Ruiling steadied himself and looked at Han Lin in disbelief.

Han Lin was about to make another move without saying a word, but at that moment, a blurry figure suddenly appeared from a distance.

He was a middle-aged man in a green robe.

When they saw who it was, Han Lin and Zhao Ruiling were both startled and quickly bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency."

Kong He said coldly, "What are you two doing here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping!"

Zhao Ruiling quickly said, "I came out to cultivate for a bit, and when I saw Junior Brother Han still working, I came over to check on him."

As he spoke, he glanced at Han Lin with a threatening look in his eyes.

Having just killed Zeng Ping and the other man, Han Lin didn't want to attract Kong He's attention at this time, so he said, "Captain Lu Xing said I was slow at work during the day, so he asked me to move that pile of stones over there."

"Nonsense!"

Kong He shouted, "What are you doing working so late at night? Go back and rest!"

"Yes."

Han Lin bowed and then walked towards the camp.

When he returned to the stone house in the camp, he found that the lock on his room had been pried open and the inside had been ransacked.

His heart sank, and he secretly pondered how to handle the matter.

"Forget it, let's just bear with it for now. Zeng Ping's matter hasn't come to light yet. Bringing the conflict between me and Zhao Ruiling to the forefront now will undoubtedly amplify the suspicion against me."

"Zhao Ruiling won't give up easily since he didn't find the spirit stones. If we can shut him up before he loses his patience, this matter can perhaps be resolved perfectly."

Han Lin was torn between his inner thoughts and his own, but in the end, he decided to endure it.

"However, Zhao Ruiling is still a big problem. As long as he lives, my grudge with him may be exposed to the public at any time. It seems that I have to find a way to get rid of him as soon as possible."

At this moment, not only Zhao Ruiling wanted to kill Han Lin, but Han Lin was also thinking about how to kill Zhao Ruiling.
