Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City -
Chapter 296 - 295: Want to Leave? Did You Ask for My Permission?
Chapter 296: Chapter 295: Want to Leave? Did You Ask for My Permission?
Someone, somewhere, had started to shout, and soon, the jungle was filled with rallying cries.
The crowd began to stir.
These mercenaries were adventurers at heart, and the rangers who made it to Transshipment Island were pioneers of freedom and adventure.
At this moment, Lin Hao’s words had planted a seed in everyone’s heart.
Resurrection Island, from the Upper Realm, adventure, treasures, a vast amount of Primordial Stones!
As more and more voices reached their ears, the flames in their hearts grew fiercer and stronger!
But, it still wasn’t enough.
The mercenaries and Refining God Realm experts up front were already restless, but their gazes were on the dozen or so Sky-breaking Experts.
Without the lead of a Sky-breaking Expert, they couldn’t shake the East Atlantic Company.
And if these Sky-breaking Experts were to join in, then it might be a different story.
But at this moment, the eight foreign Sky-breaking Experts of Nicholas had sullen faces, clearly in a dilemma.
They weren’t fools; reaching the Sky-breaking Realm, they were considered rare talents.
The East Atlantic scion used them, but wasn’t Lin Hao doing the same?
Neither were good options, but to truly oppose the East Atlantic Company?
"What, do you still hope to secretly negotiate with the East Atlantic Company, to let you onto Resurrection Island?"
"Hehe, our ancestors had a saying, a single spark can start a prairie fire. If you don’t want that spark, I’m afraid that even if you make it to Resurrection Island, you won’t get anything good."
"What’s good for everyone, is the real good."
At this time, the young Huaxia Cultivator looked at the burning East Atlantic Company fortress and slowly walked forward.
What’s good for everyone, is the real good?
The eight Sky-breaking Experts of Nicholas were startled, looking incredulously at the young Huaxia.
"So you’re really in cahoots with Lin Hao!"
Nicholas was unwilling to accept this in his heart, but dared not show any other reaction, angrily staring at the four Huaxia Cultivators, grinding his teeth.
"Say whatever you want. As long as we can get onto Resurrection Island, what’s it to us if we let Lin Hao off the hook for now? Once we’re on the island, whoever can kill Lin Hao, we’ll see who’s got the skill. We don’t care about Primordial Stones, but we must have his ring."
The young Huaxia Cultivator smiled proudly, looking down at Nicholas with disdain: "As for now, we absolutely won’t allow you to lay a hand on him. Do you understand?"
"Hahaha!"
Nicholas burst into laughter: "Very well! In that case, today we’ll force the East Atlantic Company to open up Resurrection Island. After getting on the island, we’ll kill Lin Hao. You get the ring, and the rest is ours!"
"Agreed."
The young Huaxia laughed, a mysterious chill flashing through his eyes.
The three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts remained expressionless, not uttering a word.
Nicholas sneered and, ignoring the Huaxia Cultivators, turned back to the other Sky-breaking Experts.
"If that’s the case, then today, let’s send a message to the East Atlantic Company!"
The eight elders exchanged glances, then strode towards the East Atlantic Company fortress.
Once they moved, the mercenaries, already restless, followed suit, sweeping towards the fortress.
"What, what are they doing!"
"Weren’t they hired to kill Lin Hao!"
On the fortress, it was still the same window.
Carter and Ascetic Doug had turned ashen.
They couldn’t understand why the mercenaries and Sky-breaking Experts, who clearly should have protected their fortress, were now taking advantage of the chaos and attacking them.
And their fortress had been completely ignited by Lin Hao!
Outside the room, the sound of chaotic footsteps approached; obviously, their subordinates were desperately fleeing.
What on earth was happening!
This wasn’t how the script was supposed to go!
The two of them looked at each other, feeling as if the sky was falling.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open.
A guard burst in, panic-stricken, shouting: "General Manager, Ascetic Sir, we must go, the Arson Demon is coming up!"
He’s coming up?
So soon?
Carter and Ascetic Doug felt a jolt in their hearts, as if it was only then that they remembered: even the Thomas Defense Line was no match for Lin Hao.
"Both of you, get going, the fire is coming here too!"
Carter and Ascetic Doug’s confidants also rushed into the room from the outside, everyone in utter panic.
Leave?
But where to go?
At this moment, the entire fortress was ablaze, with Cultivators in all directions.
Unless...
Carter and Ascetic Doug turned to look at the window, bitterness filling their hearts.
To have been stationed on Transshipment Island, both were elite talents; when had they ever thought they would meet such an end?
To be chased by a boy under twenty to the point of jumping out of a window.
"Ah!"
Screams echoed from outside the room, and a powerful aura was rapidly approaching.
It was Lin Hao!
Had it been before, even if Lin Hao had come here, Carter and Doug would have definitely confronted him.
But now, Lin Hao had single-handedly fought eight Sky-breaking Experts without dying and had chased them here; his tremendous battle achievements quelled any desire they had to resist.
Run!
The only option was to flee. The two exchanged glances and in unison said:
"Jump!"
No more hesitation—what about pride, about dignity? Was any of that more important than their lives?
Without another word, Carter and Ascetic Doug jumped out of the window.
Boom!
It wasn’t long before the entire room exploded.
The fortress was completely destroyed.
Lin Hao acted, leaving a trail of fire wherever he went.
This fortress, costing tens of billions of US dollars, didn’t withstand even a quarter of an hour before it was reduced to ashes.
In the jungle, Carter and Doug fell from the sky and as soon as they landed, they tried to escape in the chaos.
But with a flash of a figure, a powerful oppressive force pinned them to the ground.
"Thinking of leaving? Did you ask for my permission?"
A voice both familiar and strange.
It was Lin Hao!
Carter and Doug’s faces changed drastically at the same time.
Shouldn’t Lin Hao be setting fires inside the fortress right now? Why was he here?
But, there was no time for them to think anymore; the powerful aura had them scared out of their wits.
"I... I..."
Carter was trembling all over, as if an invisible hand was gripping his neck, making him unable to speak.
"What about you?"
Lin Hao sneered coldly, stepping in front of the two.
Lin Hao did not delight in killing; these past days, he only set fire to East Atlantic Company’s properties, typically ignoring East Atlantic Company’s people who did not resist.
But these two were different.
"I’m asking you, do you know about Skinning Cliff?"
Skinning Cliff?
That was Transshipment Island’s execution site; anyone who opposed the East Atlantic Company would be taken there, flayed alive, and then hung on the cliff to feed the fish.
How could Carter and Doug not know?
"I... I..."
This time, even Doug was fumbling his words.
"It seems, it was your doing. Let’s go."
Coming here wasn’t just about destroying East Atlantic Company’s properties within three days.
Lin Hao was also here to avenge those Huaxia Cultivators who died at Skinning Cliff!
A glint of cold light in his eyes, Lin Hao reached out and grabbed them both like dead dogs, turning to head in the direction of Skinning Cliff.
"Since it was your doing, then today, you will experience exactly what those who died at Skinning Cliff went through. I will make you remember forever. Us Huaxia, you—cannot afford to provoke!"
