Chapter 267: Chapter 266: Encountering a Strong Opponent

"Where is he?"

Not only the onlookers were searching for Lin Hao, but Poison Rose and the trio led by Song Qinghong were also looking for him.

Just now, they had seen Lin Hao rush into the cave.

But then, a bright light shone from within the cave, and Lin Hao was not seen again.

Now, a red-robed old man stood at the entrance of the cave, holding a divine staff with a huge crystal ball embedded in it, but Lin Hao was nowhere to be seen.

Could he have been captured?

For some reason, not just the town’s foreign rangers, even Poison Rose and the trio led by Song Qinghong couldn’t help but entertain this thought.

Otherwise, why would Lin Hao disappear?

"Damn it, they dare to capture our boss, let’s go! Take him down and rescue the boss!" Huai Shian was the first who couldn’t restrain himself. A black light flashed between his eyebrows, activating his Demon Skill, and his whole body was enveloped in black Demonic Qi, ready to charge forward and fight desperately.

But at that moment, a figure unexpectedly descended from the clouds above.

"It’s Lin Hao!"

Song Qinghong was the first to spot the person falling from the sky and immediately leaped to rescue him.

The figure descending from the sky was indeed Lin Hao.

At this moment, Lin Hao fell from the sky, performing several aerial transfers, and finally landed on the rooftop of a high-rise building.

"Puh!"

The moment he landed, Lin Hao felt a sweetness in his throat, and a mouthful of turbid blood sprayed out, his brow revealing a trace of grave concern.

So powerful!

Before this, Lin Hao had always encountered no obstacles.

Burning down the properties of the East Atlantic Company, crushing and slaughtering the grey-robed Kerkin, destroying the armored convoy and the armed helicopters with overwhelming force – everything had been too easy.

And that Red Knight had always been all talk and no show, like a turtle hiding in its shell.

Lin Hao had thought he would be able to capture him easily but had underestimated the rest of the world.

Indeed, there is always a bigger fish!

Just as he rushed into the cave, he saw the old man in red holding a staff that radiated divine light, knowing it was a treasure and intending to grab it.

Who knew that the crystal ball on the staff was tremendously powerful, emitting thousands of beams of Holy Light that blasted him out of the cave, soaring to the heavens.

Had Lin Hao been any weaker, that single beam of Holy Light would have not only killed him, but also blasted him out of Earth and into outer space.

He almost capsized in the gutter just by that close call.

Lin Hao let out a bitter laugh, wiping the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Are you alright?"

At that time, Song Qinghong finally landed beside Lin Hao, asking with a worried face.

"I’m fine."

Lin Hao shook his head, slowly standing up.

"It seems we have underestimated these foreigners; although they are not suited for Cultivation, their God Cultivation is not weak either. No wonder they managed to drive the people of Dragon Needle out of these waters."

"What should we do now?"

Song Qinghong, and the newly arrived Song Taishan and Huai Shian, all changed their expressions, looking at Lin Hao with shock as they turned their heads to look at the red-robed, red-haired, red-eyebrowed old man standing at the entrance of the cathedral.

They had been with Lin Hao for so long, when had they ever seen him suffer such a severe setback?

Actually beaten to the point of vomiting blood by a Red Robe Level old foreigner.

Soon, the situation on the rooftop was discovered by the rangers in the city.

The news that Lin Hao was beaten to the point of spitting blood spread throughout Freedom City almost instantly.

"Have you heard? That Huaxia youngster finally met his match, he was beaten to spitting blood by the Red Knight without even taking a hit!"

"It’s not just spitting blood, I heard the Red Knight didn’t even show his face and directly used a beam of Holy Light; he almost sent that arrogant Huaxia kid into space!"

"Hehehe, this time, the Huaxia kid finally encountered a real opponent. He was showing off before, wanting to bet with billions; now, even if he won one round, with the majority of bets on this one, this kid is bound to lose."

"Hahaha, that’s right, the Huaxia kid thought he was invincible, and although he is strong, the Red Knight is stronger! Who has seen the Red Knight lose in three hundred years?"

"This time, he surely can’t burn through all of the East Atlantic Company’s assets within three days, right? I bet, by tonight, the Huaxia kid will show up at Flaying Cliff, skinned and hung beneath the cliff to feed the sharks. Who wants to make a bet?"

The foreigners who cherish freedom and adventure gathered together again, each one of them exceedingly excited, as if Lin Hao had already been beaten to death.

"Heretic, surrender! Come down and give yourself up now, and I, in the name of the great Lord, may allow you to suffer less," the Red Knight said, standing at the cave entrance without any expression, his aged body motionless, yet his voice resounding like a bell.

Confident, proud, holding the winning hand.

The words of the Red Knight immediately caused Huai Shian to jump up, standing at the top of the building, pointing at the ruins of the Freedom Cathedral below, and cursing at the top of his voice:

"Damn it! Do you think you’re so amazing? If it wasn’t for your sneak attack, do you think you would be here blabbing away? What heretics, so anyone who follows your religion is a good person and those who don’t are heretics? Spitting on you! What do you think your Western Church is, to be so shamelessly arrogant here? You’re so awesome, does your so-called Lord know about all this? Have the guts, let your Lord... uh... uh..."

Before he could finish speaking, at the cave entrance, the Red Knight let out a cold snort and pointed his Magic Wand at Huai Shian from afar.

A beam of Divine Light shot out from the wand, and Huai Shian immediately felt an invisible giant hand suddenly grasp his throat, forcefully cutting off the latter half of his sentence, then he was seen frantically grasping at something in front of his chest, mysteriously lifted off the building by some force.

Soon after, as the Red Knight pointed the wand toward the ground.

Whoosh!

Huai Shian was grabbed by the invisible hand and hurled to the ground.

"Disrespect to the Lord, I shall punish you on his behalf."

A voice devoid of emotional fluctuation came, and Huai Shian was thrown off from the ten-story building, crash-landing with a thunderous noise, smashing into the roadside and cratering the street.

The beating!

In an instant, Freedom City erupted in an uproar.

"Long live the Red Knight!"

"The Red Knight is mighty!"

"Go! Kill those Huaxia bastards, and reclaim the glory for our God Cultivation!"

For the first time, those who came with Lin Hao were beaten so badly.

Falling from such a high building with that much force, if not dead, they would be severely injured!

"I love you, Red Knight! Once you take down that Huaxia kid, we’ll be able to share a billion, hahaha!"

"The clubs, the fresh-faced models are beckoning us, the Red Knight is invincible!"

The foreign rangers were inexplicably excited, all eyes focused on the top of the high-rise.

Lin Hao had already stood up, also at the edge of the tall building, looking at the Red Knight amidst the cathedral ruins.

"What do we do?"

Song Qinghong and Song Taishan did not dare to show themselves, hiding behind Lin Hao with faces full of tension.

What to do?

Looking at the Red Knight below the building, and sensing the aura emanating from Huai Shian’s body.

Lin Hao’s gaze grew more and more solemn, and for the first time, he spoke three words.

"He’s very strong."
