Chapter 538: Chapter 537: Hanging by a Thread

Upper Realm Plane, spiritual cultivation is everlasting; weapons are merely auxiliary, and as for science? In the All Heavens All Worlds, people cultivate their bodies, it’s only on Earth that they created science, and before Lin Hao became powerful, this science was quite inferior.

Lin City, after a battle to seize the city, the city walls appear severely damaged, the dried blood on the city towers still attracts many flies.

Tito Hans led the army onto the city wall, and soon, Lin Guodong and his family were bound and captured.

"Lin Guodong, I, the Gu Emperor, am merciful, considering the pitiful state of your Earth people, I allowed you to establish a footing in Lin City. Yet, you fail to appreciate this and are excessively greedy, embezzling all the city’s tax revenue, leaving only 580,000 jin of Primordial Stones in the treasury vault. Hah, where are the rest of the Primordial Stones hidden? Speak now!"

Tito Hans sits on a large chair atop the city wall, coldly staring at Lin Guodong who knelt below, suddenly striking the armrest of the chair.

Lin Guodong was stunned, lifting his head in shock, foolishly looking at Tito Hans, and then...

"Ptui!"

A spit of thick saliva almost hit Tito Hans’ face.

"I, Lin Guodong, our Earth people, have treated Gu Country well! Paid the taxes in full, even supported the rule of the Gu Emperor. Unexpectedly, the Gu Emperor turns out to be so ungrateful, wanting to exterminate my entire family. Haha, now that we’ve lost, kill if you want, loot if you want, accuse us of corruption?"

Lin Guodong sneered repeatedly: "Remember this! As long as us Earth people are not wiped out, we will claim this debt back!!"

"So, you did embezzle Gu Country’s funds and plot rebellion, the Gu Emperor has truly raised a pack of ungrateful wolves! Speak! Where have you hidden the Primordial Stones!" Tito Hans completely ignored Lin Guodong’s words, sneering repeatedly and walked up to Lin Guodong.

"Confess, it’s over for you Earth people. Fear not, I tell you, in the Upper Realm, not only in Gu Country, all emperors dare not let Earth people live comfortably. The order from above, no one dares to disobey! It’s the Divine World that wants you dead, and you must die."

Tito Hans sneered once, then patted Lin Guodong on the shoulder: "Speak, where have you hidden the wealth? Any remaining accomplices?"

In Lin Guodong’s heart, it was as if stormy waves surged, this was the first time he learned the truth.

Earth people, who have they provoked?

To have the Divine World decree their extermination!

Earth people are doomed!

Lin Guodong felt dead inside, but, he was not planning to submit.

Let alone he didn’t hide any wealth, even if he had, he wouldn’t say today!

"Wishful thinking!"

Lin Guodong steeled his heart, coldly staring at Tito Hans, even in death today, he would not submit.

Today, he understood a principle, a principle Dragon Needle had told him several times.

If Earth people wanted to be strong, to survive, they must not depend on others and must possess the capability to defend themselves!

Today, Lin Guodong understood!

But, it was too late!

Lin City had been destroyed, the fate of his clansmen within the city unknown, and Lin Guodong could no longer manage much, he was struggling to survive.

The only thing to do was to die with dignity, to infuriate these Half-beast of the Gu Country before death!

"The wealth I’ve hidden, someday, someone will find it, and extinguish Gu Country!" Lin Guodong dared to tell a lie.

"Good, good, good!" Tito Hans sneered, with a wave of his hand, someone immediately brought over an equally bound young boy.

If looked closely, this young boy was somewhat similar to Lin Yan’er, they were siblings.

"This is your eldest son, right? I heard he’s quite talented, with strong cultivation." Tito Hans slightly smiled, then took out some iron hooks with barbs.

Puchi!

The sound of iron entering flesh, along with the sound of bones breaking, could be heard.

In the blink of an eye, Tito Hans stabbed two iron hooks into the young boy’s pipa bones.

"You!!" Lin Guodong’s eyes blazed with fire, he struggled vigorously, but could not move at all, overwhelmed with urgency and anger, he could only scream: "Tito Hans! I will kill you!!!"

"Oh? Sure, if you have the ability. But today, you need to tell me where your wealth is hidden. Otherwise." Tito Hans waved his hand, and the young boy with his pipa bone pierced was pushed towards the city wall by two soldiers.

The city wall was twenty meters high, the young boy’s pipa bones were pierced, his cultivation was lost, his physical strength was no more than that of an ordinary person, and from twenty meters, falling like that, he was surely going to die.

Death from a fatal fall!

"Will you speak?" Tito Hans sneered repeatedly, looking at Lin Guodong with disdain.

And Lin Guodong, also staring at Tito Hans, then...

"Hahaha!"

Lin Guodong burst out laughing, tears streaming down his face.

He suddenly realized, this Tito Hans had embezzled the city’s wealth himself, and in order to report to the Gu Emperor, he needed to make it seem as if these treasures had been hidden by Lin Guodong.

Although everyone below knew, deceiving the Gu Emperor was still possible, at least, it was acceptable superficially, a scapegoat was needed.

"Tito, if you want to kill, then kill, as for the rest, old man tells you, dream on!!"

Lin Guodong scoffed repeatedly, then turned back and looked at the young boy tied up on the city wall: "Si! About to die, are you scared!"

"I’m not scared! Kill or flay, whatever you want!" On the city wall, the young boy covered in blood was very weak, but still clenched his teeth and roared, standing proud and upright.

"Good! Worthy of being my son, Lin Guodong! Today, even if my entire family dies here, I believe, one day, someone from Earth will come to avenge us!"

Lin Guodong howled to the sky, ready to meet his end.

Tito Hans sneered repeatedly: "Good, very good, indeed won’t cry until seeing the coffin!"

Finished speaking, Tito Hans waved his hand, on the city wall, those two soldiers reached out to push Lin Si down the wall.

"Come on! After my Lin Si dies, there will be thousands, millions more Lin Si!" Lin Si glared fiercely, not afraid at all.

The two Gu Country soldiers smiled bloodthirstily, grabbed Lin Si: "Go die, just too much damn blather!"

At the same time, the two men were about to push.

Just at this critical moment, suddenly, from a great distance, two snapping sounds were heard.

The two Gu Country soldiers hadn’t recovered yet, and on their foreheads, two bloody holes appeared!

Blood and brains splashed onto Lin Si’s face. Lin Si hadn’t fallen from the city wall yet, but the two Gu Country soldiers had lost their lives and limply fell from the wall.

...

Silence, dead silence.

On the city wall, no one understood what had happened, everyone’s faces were dumbfounded, even Tito Hans looked at Lin Si in astonishment.

Everyone was sure it was Lin Si’s doing, but Lin Si’s pipa bone had been pierced, his power was completely lost, and he was even tied up, how could he have killed two soldiers?

Even Lin Si himself, standing on the city wall, was completely clueless about what had just happened.

And at that moment, suddenly, someone pointed towards the distant horizon and shouted: "Look, what is that!!"
