We offered you a summer job, but you went and became a mercenary?

Inside the communications vehicle.

A blinding red light flashed on the radar screen, and a piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire carriage.

"Captain! The energy level has skyrocketed!" Xiao Wang jumped up from his chair in a panic. "Lei Zhentian has broken through to the late stage of the Transformation Realm! The energy reading is still rising!"

The eagle held the thermos cup with unwavering stability, not spilling a single drop of water.

"What are you yelling about? Sit down." The eagle looked at Xiao Wang with disdain. "What's all the fuss about? Anyone who didn't know better would think aliens had attacked."

At the entrance of the residential compound.

Lin Ye looked at Lei Zhentian, whose muscles had bulged and who looked like the Hulk, and scratched his hair in extreme frustration.

Why is it always so difficult to ask for money?

Lin Ye's tone revealed deep exhaustion.

"I just want to take a taxi to school, grab a lower bunk, and then play some games in peace and quiet."

"You're forcing me to take action."

Lei Zhentian let out a deafening roar and stomped his feet on the ground.

He transformed into a blood-red afterimage and pounced straight at Lin Ye.

The speed is more than twice as fast as before!

The air was forcibly torn apart by his massive body, producing an extremely piercing sonic boom.

Lei Zhentian concentrated all his burning power into his right fist, unleashing a devastating attack straight at Lin Ye's face.

This punch could smash through not only flesh and blood, but even a half-meter-thick reinforced concrete wall!

Faced with this terrifying blow, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.

Lin Ye didn't even try to dodge.

He stood still and raised his right hand.

There were no fancy movements, nor was any internal energy activated.

Lin Ye simply spread his five fingers and grabbed at Lei Zhentian's fist, which was as big as a sandbag.

"boom!"

The two forces collided violently in mid-air.

The terrifying energy spread wildly outwards from the point of contact between the two.

The surrounding cement ground was instantly scraped away, and gravel and sand flew everywhere.

The madness and ferocity on Lei Zhentian's face were frozen in time.

He felt as if his punch, delivered with all his might, hadn't actually landed on anyone's hand.

Instead, it crashed into an unshakeable, towering iron mountain.

Lin Ye's seemingly fair and slender right hand was tightly gripping his fist.

Not to mention taking a single step back, Lin Ye's arm didn't even tremble in the slightest!

"this one?"

Lin Ye tilted his head, looking at Lei Zhentian with a face full of disgust.

Lei Zhentian's mind went blank, and fear overwhelmed him like a tidal wave.

He desperately tried to draw his remaining internal energy back.

It can't be pulled out.

It's completely impossible to pull it out!

His fist felt as if it were welded firmly into place by industrial hydraulic clamps weighing hundreds of tons. Even if he exerted all his strength, he couldn't budge Lin Ye an inch.

"Since you don't want to pay for the taxi fare, then this self-defense part-time job ends here."

Lin Ye's tone was extremely calm.

He slightly turned his wrist.

He exerted force with all five fingers.

"Snap—!"

Lei Zhentian's proud right arm, which contained all the power of the late-stage Transformation Realm, instantly emitted a series of bone-cracking sounds that made people's scalps tingle.

"ah--!"

The sharp, white bone fragments pierced his skin, and blood gushed down his wrist.

Large beads of cold sweat rolled down Lei Zhentian's forehead.

His pride and joy at the late-stage Transformation Realm cultivation was nothing but a fart in front of Lin Ye.

This is not even a force of one dimension!

Lin Ye frowned in extreme frustration.

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning? Don't you know you're disturbing the neighbors?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Ye didn't pause at all.

He loosened his grip on Lei Zhentian's twisted right hand and suddenly exerted force with his feet.

The marble floor was dented by the footsteps.

Lin Ye's body instantly transformed into a black afterimage.

That's too fast.

Lei Zhentian didn't even have time to take a step back. He only felt a blur before his eyes, and Lin Ye was already right in front of him.

"Bang!"

Lin Ye punched Lei Zhentian in the left shoulder.

A crisp sound of bones breaking rang out.

Lei Zhentian's left shoulder joint shattered on the spot, and his entire left arm hung limply down.

The immense impact propelled Lei Zhentian's massive body off the ground, sending him soaring into the air.

Lin Ye gave him no chance to catch his breath. He pushed off the ground with his right foot and soared into the air, closely following Lei Zhentian.

In mid-air, a one-sided, storm-like crushing attack officially began.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

A flurry of punches and kicks echoed at the entrance of the residential compound.

Lin Ye's fists, elbows, and knees, with terrifying explosive force, landed with unparalleled precision on Lei Zhentian's limb joints.

He didn't use any techniques at all, relying entirely on pure physical strength and muscle memory. Every strike was incredibly fast.

Inside the Iveco communications vehicle, 200 meters away.

Agent Xiao Wang stared intently at the monitor screen, his fingers furiously typing on the keyboard.

The scene on the screen had been slowed down tenfold, but all that could be seen was a blurry black shadow frantically attacking Lei Zhentian.

"Captain!" Xiao Wang's voice cracked as he pointed at the screen and shouted, "I can't see anything! The surveillance camera's frame rate can't capture Mr. Lin's movements at all!"

The eagle leaned back in its chair and slowly blew on the goji berries in its thermos.

"Don't waste your energy." Eagle rolled his eyes. "When Mr. Lin was in the Middle East, bullets couldn't catch him. You expect this crappy surveillance camera to capture anything clearly?"

Xiao Wang swallowed hard, staring at the data flashing wildly on the radar.

"Captain, Lei Zhentian's vital signs are dropping rapidly! But he's not in mortal danger!" Xiao Wang's eyes widened. "Mr. Lin avoided vital points with every strike, specifically targeting his joints and meridians!"

The eagle snorted coldly.

"Nonsense, did you really think Mr. Lin was someone you could just beat up? This is called professional." Cangying put down his thermos. "Killing him outright would be too easy. Coming to the door early in the morning and delaying Mr. Lin's registration at school, Mr. Lin is giving him a full-body physical exorcism."

At the entrance of the residential compound.

The old lady carrying a vegetable basket who had just hidden in the corner of the wall a hundred meters away peeked out half her head.

The middle-aged woman rubbed her eyes, looking completely bewildered.

All she heard were muffled thuds and the old man's heart-wrenching screams.

As for the young man in black, she couldn't even see his figure clearly; she only saw a dark shadow flickering back and forth in mid-air.

Are young people these days so unpredictable when they fight?

midair.

Lei Zhentian didn't even have a chance to land.

He felt as if he were being bombarded by a hundred pile drivers at the same time.

Countless bones in his body were broken, and his meridians were severed inch by inch.

His prized Blood Burning Technique was completely shattered by Lin Ye's relentless and violent attacks.

The violent true energy surged wildly within his body, wreaking havoc on his internal organs.

"Stop...stop hitting me..."

Lei Zhentian's mouth was full of blood, and he managed to squeeze out a very weak plea for mercy.

Lin Ye completely ignored him.

What workers hate most is being interrupted halfway through their work.

"I just asked you to pay for your taxi fare, but you got all angry." Lin Ye's voice rang in Lei Zhentian's ears, tinged with a hint of disdain. "Now look what happened, you'll have to pay for your own medical bills."
