Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

The monkeys watched as Lin Yaoxie walked up to the old monkey and grabbed it by the neck with his large hand.

With his other hand, he made a cut on the ape's belly. The old ape did not resist, nor did it even utter a cry of pain, before it was disemboweled.

Lin Yaoxie pulled a book out of the old ape's stomach: the Nine Yang Manual.

With the true scripture in hand, Lin Yaoxie only glanced at it briefly before memorizing its entire contents with the help of the system.

If we compare the Nine Yang Manual and the Long Elephant Skill, Lin Yaoxie is surprised to find that these two divine skills have similar effects.

The Long Elephant Technique is divided into thirteen levels, and upon reaching its peak, one can possess the power of thirteen long elephants. Of course, while the quantifiers, with their fractional parts, seem quite precise, they are actually very difficult to estimate. Who can possibly calculate the sheer power of thirteen giant long elephants?

The names of the Nine Yang Divine Skill and the Nine Yin Divine Skill are very similar, but although they differ by only one character, the two manuals are not of the same type.

The Nine Yin Manual also discusses internal energy, but it focuses more on techniques. For example, the most famous technique is the Nine Yin White Bone Palm.

The Nine Yang Manual is completely different. Practicing the Nine Yang Manual only increases pure internal energy. The Nine Yang Manual is divided into nine levels, and reaching the pinnacle of the ninth level is the Great Perfection realm.

With the system's help, Lin Yaoxie learned it instantly. Even more coincidentally, both the Nine Yang Manual and the Long Elephant Skill are extremely powerful and fierce internal energy techniques, and they could actually be combined.

In terms of power, the Nine Yang Manual at its peak is slightly stronger than the Long Elephant Technique at its peak. To put it simply, after mastering the two peak-level divine techniques, Lin Yaoxie possessed the power of at least twenty-six long elephants.

Whether it's thirteen or twenty-six, they're both incredibly strong.

Unbeknownst to him, Lin Yaoxie's cultivation level had increased once again. However, he couldn't muster any interest and wasn't particularly excited.

To put it bluntly, Lin Yaoxie would much rather collect more beauties like Zhu Wu than obtain the Nine Yang Manual.

Having obtained the true scripture, Lin Yaoxie tossed it into his spatial storage and turned to leave.

Only the disemboweled old white ape and a group of terrified baby apes remained in the secret realm.

Lin Yaoxie quickly climbed Jingshen Peak along the cliff face. He had no time to admire the night view of Kunlun Mountain; he released a dragon from his spatial storage and flew towards Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor.

Inside the Zhu Wu Lianhuan Manor, Zhu Jiuzhen's father, Zhu Changling, and Wu Qingying's father, Wu Lie, were discussing a despicable scheme. They were completely unaware that their daughters were simultaneously working as prostitutes for the same man.

"Brother Wu, are you completely familiar with our plan?" Zhu Changling asked the middle-aged man opposite him earnestly.

The drunk man opposite Zhu Changling was about the same age as him; he was Wu Lie. “Brother Zhu, you can rest assured. It’s just that I’m going to impersonate Xie Xun, the Golden Lion King, to help you put on a show of suffering so that the silly kid who’s coming here tomorrow will fall for it.”

"Hmm." Zhu Changling nodded first, then emphasized, "Don't underestimate this matter. Zhang Cuishan and his wife are dead, and the only one in the world who knows the whereabouts of the Dragon-Slaying Saber is that poor kid. We can't fight for it by force, we can only outsmart it. Once we get the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Demon Emperor's Divine Skill, who in the world will we be afraid of?"

“That’s right, that’s right.” Wu Lie also became excited, then lowered his voice and asked, “Brother Zhu, do you think the rumors circulating in the martial arts world are true? It’s about how our ancestors were killed by the Demon Emperor’s flying sword many years ago. Why does this seem so mysterious to me?”

Zhu Changling waved his hand: "My dear brother, that's just your old-fashioned thinking. After all, it happened a hundred years ago, there's no point in dwelling on it. Actually, I wish it were true. If the Demon Emperor could really unleash four swords and kill the four ancestors of Emperor Duan, who were guarding the four gates—the Fisherman, the Woodcutter, the Farmer, and the Scholar—wouldn't that be an incredible feat? Wouldn't you want that even more?"

"I'll think about it, of course I'll!" Wu Lie laughed loudly.

It's no wonder that Wu Qingying and Zhu Jiuzhen sold themselves to their ancestral killer without knowing it. In fact, not only the two young girls, but even their cunning father didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.

Ninety years ago is too far in the past, and there are too many precedents of rumors circulating in the martial arts world. No one would easily believe something based solely on someone else's account without firsthand experience.

After laughing for a while, Wu Lie gave Zhu Changling a thumbs up: "Brother Zhu, I, Wu Lie, can never compare to you. Your plan to have me impersonate Xie Xun and then get the fool to tell the truth was already flawless. But you had Jiu Zhen use a honey trap. Isn't that a bit superfluous?"

"No, no, no!" Zhu Changling said cautiously, "Better safe than sorry. For the sake of the Tu Long Blade and for the sake of our Zhu and Wu families to dominate the land of China, it's never wrong to be careful. I'm just using this as an excuse to lower that kid's guard. He won't have a chance to actually touch a hair on Jiu Zhen's head."

Then the two of them burst into laughter again.

"Uncle, I heard you're going to have Jiuzhen seduce Wuji?" A young man rushed in, handsome but with a slightly frivolous look in his eyes.

This person was Wei Bi. He hadn't expected Wu Lie to be there either. After a moment of surprise, he respectfully addressed him as "Master."

Chapter 142: Severing Ties [Fourth Update]

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to go to Red Plum Manor to see why your junior sister and cousin haven't arrived yet?" Wu Lie was a little unhappy.

Wei Bi smoothed his hair: "I went there earlier, but neither my junior sister nor my cousin were there. I thought I had missed them, so I came back. But when I got back to Lianhuan Manor, I found out they hadn't returned."

Upon hearing this, Wu Lie asked in surprise, "Has something happened?"

Zhu Changling frowned and muttered to himself, "Tomorrow is the day for an important event, so we absolutely cannot have any accidents."

"Ah!" Wei Bi suddenly shouted, covering his mouth and squatting down.

"Wei Bi, what's wrong with you?" Wu Lie and Zhu Changling were both startled.

Wei Bi raised his face, his expression began to change, his eyes quickly turned red, his lips twitched, and his teeth seemed to protrude significantly from the corners of his mouth.

"Wei Bi, what are you doing?" Zhu Changling was startled and took out his ancestral judge's pen.

Wu Lie was also startled by his disciple's strange appearance and picked up a chair as well.

However, Wei Bi just kept making "hoho" sounds.

He only remembered that on his way back, a dark shadow seemed to dart past by the roadside. The shadow looked like a dog, but not quite; it was much bigger than a dog.

Wei Bi was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, feeling a slight chill on the back of his neck. However, nothing happened after a while, and Wei Bi thought it was just his imagination.

If Zhu Changling and Wu Lie were to turn around to Wei Bi's back, they would find that very thick black blood was seeping out from the back of Wei Bi's neck.

Wherever the blood reached, the skin ulcerated, and Wei Bi gradually fell into a state of extreme mania.

Suddenly, Wei Bi charged towards Zhu Changling and Wu Lie. His ferocious, snarling appearance was hardly human; he was more like a raging wild beast!

Zhu Jiuzhen and Wu Qingying finally woke up. The first thing they saw was their messy lower bodies and their clothes torn into strips.

Lin Yaoxie sat by the bed and, after watching them wake up, gently said, "Awake?"

"Mmm." The two beauties were very shy, shrinking into the blankets, their faces flushed.

The reason they were so wanton just now was because Lin Yaoxie used tricks. Now that the passion has faded and their desires have subsided, they've returned to normal.

But they still remembered their feelings for Lin Yaoxie and the things they had said to him before.

"Alright, get your clothes ready." A hint of worry flashed across Lin Yaoxie's face: "I just heard screams coming from the direction of Lianhuan Manor. Get up quickly so we can go check it out."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Wu and the other two girls forgot all about being shy and quickly found clothes to put on.

Both Zhu Jiuzhen and Wu Qingying had heard from their fathers these past two days that something big was about to happen.

However, neither of them knew the specifics of what happened.

After leaving Red Plum Manor, Lin Yaoxie did not hand over Shalaba this time, but instead carried one in each hand and rode the wind.

Although it seemed like he was moving quickly, Lin Yaoxie deliberately took a detour, his purpose being to make Wei Bi's actions within the Lianhuan Manor more thorough.

Wei Bi went from being perfectly fine to looking like a ghost entirely because of Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie's primary purpose in arriving at Kunlun Mountain was indeed to capture Zhu Wu and her two daughters. He also wanted to take a look at the Nine Yang Manual.

However, due to the continuous loneliness, Lin Yaoxie felt more and more that it was necessary to let Zhang Wuji live.

If we only take away the two women from Zhu Wu, without dealing with the two old men from Zhu Wu, that silly boy Zhang Wuji might still fall for the trap.

Zhang Wuji is in trouble. Not only is his own life and future uncertain, but Xie Xun and Tu Longdao may also face unforeseen circumstances.

Lin Yaoxie doesn't want to bring the Butcher's Blade back to the Central Plains so quickly, so for both public and private reasons, he can't let Zhang Wuji be born yet.

Since they hold this view, no one from Zhu Wu Lianhuan Village should be allowed to live.

In fact, Lin Yaoxie had already arrived at Lianhuan Manor after leaving Jing Shenfeng. With his abilities, he could easily kill everyone in the entire manor with a flick of his hand.

However, Lin Yaoxie did not intend to do that. Just like when he won over Huang Rong, he wanted to make the Zhu sisters willingly follow him.

Since they've chosen to follow me, they must have no attachments. But as long as one has relatives and friends, there will be attachments. If you want to sever those attachments, why not just do it directly—wipe out the whole family?

Moreover, although the two women have now given their bodies to Lin Yaoxie, Lin Yaoxie knows that they are only intimidated by the strength he has temporarily displayed, and their emotional destinies are mostly still with Wei Bi.

Simply killing Wei Bi would make him perfect in their eyes. So Lin Yaoxie devised a plan to completely shatter Wei Bi's image in the hearts of Zhu Wu and the other woman. Not only shatter it, but also create an irreconcilable hatred so that every time they thought of him, they would grit their teeth in resentment.

This is a difficult thing for others, but for Lin Yaoxie, it's a simple matter.

Lin Yaoxie first released a corpse wolf containing the Vincent virus prototype, and then had the corpse wolf attack Wei Bi, who had just returned from a failed attempt to visit Red Plum Manor.

The vampire virus was left in Wei Bi's body, but there was no rush to activate it immediately.

When Zhu Jiuzhen and Wu Qingying arrived at the main entrance of Lianhuan Manor, their eyes widened in disbelief, and their mouths were so full they could fit an egg in them.

What did they see? They saw that the guards at the main gate had become corpses.

Something really bad has happened at Lianhuanzhuang, and it's a big one.

The gatekeeper was killed, so what happened to their fathers, their cousins ​​or senior classmates?

Lin Yaoxie seized the opportunity to loosen his grip on the two beauties' waists.

With a gentle push, Zhu Wu and the other two women stumbled into the Lianhuan Manor, while Lin Yaoxie followed leisurely behind.

The further they went in, the more surprised the two women became!

The gardens, the ponds, the corridors—everywhere in the Lianhuan Manor was littered with corpses. And judging from the expressions of the dead, they had all witnessed something horrific before they died.

"Father, how is Father?" The two women ran away in panic.

Chapter 143: Reduced to ashes [Chapter 1]

Zhu Jiuzhen rushed into the room and saw her father, Zhu Changling, lying on the ground with his head completely turned to one side.

Not far away, Wu Lie was clearly dead as well. But his body was being held against the wall by someone, who was frantically biting at it with their mouth wide open.

Wu Qingying rushed in, shouting, "Father!"

The sound startled the maniac who was biting, and he turned around. Zhu Wu and the other two women froze, even suppressing their screams.

Because they saw that the person with blood in his mouth, head tilted to the side, lifeless eyes, and a hungry expression was actually Wei Bi.

Having gone mad, Wei Bi slowly turned around after seeing the two beautiful women.

Then, with a sudden burst of speed, he pounced on the two people at the door.

Fortunately, Zhu Wu and his companion had been on high alert ever since they realized something was wrong inside Lianhuan Manor, so they were able to dodge Wei Bi's attack.

The force with which Wei Bi lunged out was truly immense. Not only did he lose his balance and fall face-first to the ground, but his two sharp-fingered hands also tore holes in the stone slabs.

Whether they understand or not, the two women now have to face a reality: the person who killed the entire village was none other than their former lover, Wei Bi.

"Wei Bi, what's going on?" The two women changed how they addressed Wei Bi.

Wei Bi swayed as he stood up, his back to the two women, and chuckled nervously.

"Who told those two old bastards to marry you off to Lin Yaoxie? I won't accept it! I won't accept it!" He suddenly turned around, grinning and laughing wildly, then stopped talking.

In fact, Wei Bi is already dead. The reason his body can still move is entirely due to the virus.

The words Lin Yaoxie spoke about eating while his back was to the two women were also transmitted telepathically from outside. His aim was to use the most despicable method to win the hearts of the two beauties completely.
