Film & TV: Public Enemy of Justice

Upon hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, the Ghost Prime Minister's face turned green. He understood that everything Lin Yaoxie said was true. He knew Lin Yaoxie was always impulsive and irritable.

Therefore, the Ghost Prime Minister actually believed that as long as he said those provocative words, given Lin Yaoxie's temper, he would definitely crush that ghost messenger to death.

However, to his utter surprise, Lin Yaoxie did not act impulsively this time. Instead, he clearly analyzed his motivations.

Especially after Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, those who had originally supported the Ghost Prime Minister began to discuss quietly, seemingly wavering back and forth.

The Ghost Prime Minister's sense of crisis instantly intensified, and he pointed at Lin Yaoxie, saying:

"Don't try to scare us. We already had victory in our grasp. You only have a bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled people. Do you really think you can compete with us?"

I said I'd spare your lives because I genuinely cared about you, to let you trade with me. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone? Where are all these schemes you're making up? You...

Don't try to sow discord; we've already secured victory!

After hearing the Ghost Prime Minister's words, many below agreed. The die was cast; there was no turning back now. Retreating would only alienate them further. (King Nuo's)

Lin Yaoxie also noticed that after the Ghost Prime Minister finished speaking, the opinions of the people below began to waver again.

Lin Yaoxie laughed wildly, then said to the person in front of him who was still unable to speak, "Then I have no choice. If the Ghost Prime Minister insists on saying so, then I can't let you live!"

After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he released his grip, and the person shouted one last time, "Save me!"

Chapter 267 The War Begins

Lin Yaoxie looked at the shameless Huicheng Xiao in front of him and was momentarily speechless. He had explained all the pros and cons and laid them out in front of everyone present.

Originally, Lin Yaoxie wanted to regain some support from the officials of the Samsara Realm, but seeing their wavering attitude and their previous actions of kicking someone when they were down, Lin Yaoxie realized that none of them were worth it.

If such a group of officials were to continue to serve around Ghost King Yulan, then such situations would likely continue to occur in the future. Therefore, it would be better to eliminate them completely.

This would also prevent such a thing from happening again. Otherwise, 960 would be a significant blow to either side. Thinking this through, Lin Yaoxie resolved to eliminate them all, leaving no future trouble.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the person he had captured in his hand. The person was struggling painfully under Lin Yaoxie's power, his face contorted with rage. Lin Yaoxie looked at him and slowly released his grip.

The man was finally able to breathe in the long-awaited air, then stared at Lin Yaoxie with terror, repeatedly calling out the name of the Ghost Prime Minister, begging his master to save him. (aefe)

However, Lin Yaoxie looked at him and laughed disdainfully, saying, "How stupid! You're going to die! No one will come to save you, not even your most trusted one—the Ghost Prime Minister!"

After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he struck him with a palm, and the man instantly coughed up blood, slowly turning into black smoke and disappearing without a trace. Even as he endured the pain and vanished into nothingness, he still cried out for help.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the ghost messenger who had turned to ashes in his hands, smiled, and then said softly, "Utterly foolish. To hand over one's fate to others and expect them to save one's life is simply laughable!"

The Ghost Prime Minister looked at the ghost messenger who had vanished into thin air, outwardly displaying an expression of unbearable heartache. Inwardly, however, he sighed with relief, "Finally, it's done. Otherwise, I would have had to make another choice! It would have been like being torn to pieces!"

However, although that was what the Ghost Prime Minister thought in his heart, on the surface he seemed to have been greatly stimulated, his sword trembling as he pointed it at Lin Yaoxie.

And looking at Lin Yaoxie with apparent anger, he said:

"You...how could you...you just killed him like that? We...we absolutely cannot tolerate this! You killed one of our men! I will kill you to avenge him!"

Lin Yaoxie laughed when he heard the Ghost Prime Minister say this, and then said to the Ghost Prime Minister, who was "furious":

"Why didn't you save him just now? You don't actually think I'm a kind and compassionate person, do you? You probably don't even remember what the one who just died was called, do you? Why be so hypocritical?"

"I think you'd be better off being real and just being a complete bad guy. That way, you won't be so disgusting!"

The Ghost Prime Minister stood there, trembling with rage upon hearing Lin Yaoxie's words. He was speechless for a long time. Finally, he simply drew his sword and swung it!

Chapter 268 Fierce Battle

Lin Yaoxie saw through all of the Ghost Prime Minister's thoughts perfectly. The Ghost Prime Minister simply didn't want to give up the throne that was within his grasp, but he also wanted a reputation for benevolence and righteousness.

However, since Lin Yaoxie had already seen through the Ghost Prime Minister's intentions, he naturally wouldn't let him succeed. Therefore, Lin Yaoxie didn't kill the ghost messenger in a fit of rage as he had expected.

On the contrary, Lin Yaoxie's decision was completely unexpected by the Ghost Prime Minister. Lin Yaoxie not only calmly analyzed the Ghost Prime Minister's schemes, but also, in front of everyone, reduced the ghost messenger to ashes.

Such terrifying power filled many present with dread. After all, given Lin Yaoxie's strength, if he truly wanted to kill these lowly minions, a mere wave of his hand would be enough to obliterate them.

In the end, these people might use their own flesh and blood to protect the Ghost Prime Minister as the supreme Ghost King, while they themselves would disappear without a trace in history, leaving no trace whatsoever.

For Lin Yaoxie, this was exactly the effect he wanted. At least one person's death could serve as a warning to other restless forces, deterring them from making any rash moves.

After Lin Yaoxie finished saying what he wanted to say, he smiled quietly and looked at the Ghost Prime Minister in front of him, whose face turned pale and then red.

The Ghost Prime Minister never expected that Lin Yaoxie would come up with such a cruel and psychologically damaging method to deal with him. After all, he had always been very confident that his followers would be loyal to him to the death.

And this loyalty, as he perceived it, was precisely the reason why the Ghost Prime Minister was able to contend with the Ghost King Yulan. However, with Lin Yaoxie acting this way today, it's hard to guarantee that those who followed him wouldn't harbor some other thoughts.

Seeing Lin Yaoxie's relaxed expression, the Ghost Prime Minister became even more furious. He stared at Lin Yaoxie's ambiguous smile, fearing he might say something else that wasn't urgent.

Therefore, the Ghost Prime Minister immediately brandished his sword and charged towards Lin Yaoxie. Seeing this, Wuxing and Hua Rou stood up nervously and shouted a warning:

0oooo Requesting flowers.

"careful!"

In fact, Lin Yaoxie was prepared. The moment the Ghost Prime Minister rushed towards him, he leaped into the air and successfully dodged the Ghost Prime Minister's first sword strike.

Before the Ghost Prime Minister could react, Lin Yaoxie struck him with a palm, and the Ghost Prime Minister was clearly not a mere figurehead.

... 0

Therefore, the Ghost Prime Minister quickly reacted and slightly shifted his body to dodge Lin Yaoxie's palm attack.

Now, the Ghost Prime Minister and Lin Yaoxie are standing face to face, and the people around them have made way for them to fight.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the Ghost Prime Minister and said provocatively, "What's wrong? You've gotten angry so quickly? Your patience is terrible! You can't even finish the last bit of pretense?"

The Ghost Prime Minister pointed at Lin Yaoxie, and said angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting? Don't you dare slander me! You're talking utter rubbish!"

Chapter 269 Chaotic Fighting

The Ghost Prime Minister made the first move, then engaged Lin Yaoxie in a fierce battle. Lin Yaoxie, however, seemed quite relaxed, even verbally provoking the Ghost Prime Minister, which infuriated him.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the Ghost Prime Minister and said with a half-smile, "What? Isn't it because you're afraid that I'll reveal all your schemes and secrets?"

"If I were to reveal all your little schemes and secrets, are you sure you'd still have so many followers? What? Isn't that what you're most afraid of right now?"

Upon hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, the Ghost Prime Minister's face instantly turned deathly pale. Yet, he suppressed his fear, feigning nonchalance, and smiled before saying to Lin Yaoxie:

"You're talking nonsense! Don't try to sow discord between us. We've been through thick and thin together many times. How could we be so easily swayed by your thoughtless words?"

"You're insulting our relationship! I attacked you and tried to kill you to avenge the ghost messenger you just killed, who had been following me for years!"

"All the things you're saying now are deliberately done to sow discord between us and protect your newly sworn sister, Ghost King Yulan!"

"You still want to frame me? How shameless! I am going to kill you all for the future of the entire Realm of Reincarnation, so that we can have a more glorious future for the Realm of Reincarnation!"

Lin Yaoxie chuckled softly, then looked at the Ghost Prime Minister and calmly said:

"You really know how to twist the facts. If you want revenge for the ghost messenger now, why didn't you say a word or try to save him when you had the chance?"

"If you choose to become a bad person, then don't expect a good reputation, because not everyone is a fool! You should understand this, otherwise you will lose badly!"

Upon hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, the Ghost Prime Minister roared and brandished his sword, slashing at Lin Yaoxie. Lin Yaoxie also retrieved his sword from his Void Cauldron.

Then the two quickly became entangled in a fight. Hua Rou and Wuxing watched closely from below, fearing something might happen to Lin Yaoxie. But once the fight started up above, those below quickly joined in.

The Ghost Prime Minister and his men quickly brandished their swords and slashed at the Ghost King Yulan's supporters without any mercy.

Before they began, all of them had received the Ghost Prime Minister's instructions. While fighting Lin Yaoxie, the Ghost Prime Minister addressed his men:

"Hurry up and make your move! Ghost King Yulan is already injured, and apart from that Wuxing, she has no other experts by her side! So, you can succeed very quickly."

“You must remember this: no matter what Lin Yaoxie just said, you are still people who are rebelling with me. Even if you don’t take action, these people will not let you go in the future. You might as well take a gamble with me.”

"Perhaps, if you are willing, right today... right today, the entire Realm of Reincarnation will be ours!"

Chapter 270 The Ghost Prime Minister is Dead

Lin Yaoxie completely saw through the Ghost Prime Minister's thoughts; villains are always extremely self-centered. Lin Yaoxie understood that for the Ghost Prime Minister, other emotions and loyalty were unimportant.

For the Ghost Prime Minister, the most important thing is always supreme power and strength. Only by grasping true power can one obtain the ultimate power cultivation.

Lin Yaoxie understood that no matter what world, dynasty, or ever-changing life it was, the law of the jungle was always the supreme rule of survival.

Therefore, Lin Yaoxie didn't initially think these were absolutely wrong. Because people's thirst for power and prestige is the most genuine desire in their hearts, and it's difficult to suppress.

However, since this rule must be followed, those who are audacious and want to take what does not belong to them must also be able to accept and think about the obstacles they will face and the punishment they will receive after failure.

Because only the strong have the power to make such a choice. Lin Yaoxie had already seen through it all; although the Ghost Prime Minister had many allies and followers, their hearts were not united.

More importantly, all of their strength was very weak compared to Lin Yaoxie and his group!

But they were unaware of their own limitations. They simply thought that a severely injured ghost king, an emperor abandoned by the Heavenly Court, and a human youth who came from nowhere, along with a frail little girl, could hardly stand up to them.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the Ghost Prime Minister, smiled helplessly, and said, "Do you really think that just because you have more people, you can achieve your goal?"

"If I had known earlier, Wuxing and I would no longer be considered figures of the righteous path. We are both expelled! Therefore, we don't need to consider whether this is a matter within our own sect."

"Because, no matter what, we will do our best to help Sister Yulan. So, when you made this decision to rebel, did you investigate our abilities and what our level is?"

Lin Yaoxie's ambiguous smile sent a chill down the Ghost Prime Minister's spine. Previously, he had thought Lin was an ordinary person, but now, he couldn't discern anything from his eyes.

The Ghost Prime Minister looked over; Lin Yaoxie's eyes were deep and unfathomable, impossible to fathom, yet he felt a constant, overwhelming fear for him. This fear, however, was like an abyss of ice.

It makes one's heart feel frozen.

However, the Ghost Prime Minister understood that he had already reached this point, and there was no turning back. His only options were to slaughter the entire Realm of Reincarnation and obtain the supreme position of 960.

He either suffers a gruesome death at the hands of Lin Yaoxie today; these are the only two paths he can choose. Therefore, the Ghost Prime Minister can only do his utmost and fight to the death.

Thinking of this, the Ghost Prime Minister shouted and charged towards Lin Yaoxie. Lin Yaoxie seemed to have anticipated that the Ghost Prime Minister would attack him in a fit of rage, so he easily dodged the Ghost Prime Minister's attack.

The Ghost Prime Minister turned around and saw Lin Yaoxie looking at him with a smile. Then he gathered his power again, but before he could unleash it, Lin Yaoxie struck him in the heart with a palm strike.

Chapter 271 Stabilizing the Situation

The Ghost Prime Minister originally wanted to eliminate Lin Yaoxie as soon as possible, because only in this way could he achieve his goal. Lin Yaoxie, as someone who had consistently hindered his plans, was naturally a thorn in his side!

Currently, in Ghost King Yulan's camp, Hua Rou's strength is insufficient, and Wuxing's vitality has been greatly depleted due to Yulan's injury some time ago. Now, it seems that only Lin Yaoxie can fight them.

However, the Ghost Prime Minister eventually realized that he had greatly underestimated the ordinary human youth before him. Seeing that the boy was quite young, the Ghost Prime Minister naturally didn't take him seriously.

Because the realm of reincarnation has never had any contact or interaction with the outside world, they have far more opportunities to deal with spirits and vengeful spirits than to interact with people.

Therefore, not knowing Lin Yaoxie's strength and life story is not exactly the Ghost Prime Minister's fault.

The Ghost Prime Minister was simply too worried about Lin Yaoxie, this unstable factor. His strength was far too unfathomable; his apparent strength was far from his true power.

Moreover, the Ghost Prime Minister was quite inclined to believe that Lin Yaoxie's true strength was still hidden. Perhaps, at some special moment, it would suddenly erupt.

The Ghost Prime Minister had no intention of giving him that chance, so he drew his sword and charged at Lin Yaoxie. The repeated failures finally shattered the Ghost Prime Minister's patience.

The Ghost Prime Minister gathered all his strength, concentrating it in his right palm, and then thrust it forcefully towards Lin Yaoxie. However, Lin Yaoxie reached out and gently received the power into his own palm.

The Ghost Prime Minister was stunned by what he saw. Lin Yaoxie could actually control his power so skillfully that he could curl it up and play with it in his hand. This was an utter disgrace to the Ghost Prime Minister, and to anyone else.
