Chapter 184: Chapter 173: Died from Talking Too Much?

When Lin Tengyuan arrived at the mansion of the East Sea Commerce, the battle had already ended. Before the central courtyard, which was releasing thick smoke, Lin Tengyuan witnessed the remnants of the fight.

Three black-clothed men clutched a Japanese samurai, standing dead there; a ninja with a broken spine, limp on the ground like slop...

All who died were Japanese, whether they were samurai, ninja, or those brainwashed black-clothed men. Lin Tengyuan’s eyes were filled with sorrow as he looked at the most conspicuous corpse clad in Juzu armor—that person could be said to be his distant relative, and in this foreign land, even a distant relative made Lin Tengyuan feel a deep sense of kinship.

Wait, he’s not dead yet...

Lin Tengyuan rushed over to Fujita Heijiro like his butt was on fire, knelt before him and propped up his body, lacking the composure of a Divine Origin Realm master.

"Fujita-san, Fujita-san..." Lin Tengyuan gently shook Fujita Heijiro’s body, attempting to wake him.

It seemed that Lin Tengyuan’s actions were effective, or perhaps it was Fujita Heijiro’s fleeting return of light; he actually slowly opened his eyes, his mouth moving as if trying to say something, but was too weak to speak.

The Juzu was directly shattered by fierce hand power, with the white shirt underneath sporting two distinct handprints. His entire body was oozing blood—how could he possibly survive? It must have been a final gasp.

Lin Tengyuan looked at Fujita Heijiro and thought that perhaps those people left him alone because they saw there was no way he could survive.

However, would Qingyu Zhen really leave such an obvious survivor behind?

Just as Fujita Heijiro looked like he was about to breathe his last, so weak that he was nearly closing his eyes for good, a dark gleam flashed from his left hand at his side, aiming a stab at Lin Tengyuan’s abdomen.

"Thud—"

"Fujita Heijiro" was fast, but Lin Tengyuan was faster. At the moment "Fujita Heijiro" made his move, Lin Tengyuan had already pressed down with a palm. The palm force pressed the broken Juzu into the ground, shattering it completely.

"Divine Origin Realm masters are indeed formidable. Despite being poisoned by two potent toxins, you still sensed my sneak attack," the "Fujita Heijiro" dressed in a white inner garment, still holding the Mystic Iron dagger that failed to accomplish its task, applauded.

"But he failed to notice us hiding on the side. It’s clear his poison injury is severe, with most of his power focusing on suppressing the outbreak of the toxins," Luo Yan and Bu Lengchuan said as they walked out from where they were hidden.

It became clear, Fujita Heijiro had long been dead. After all, all his internal organs were shattered under the Extreme Yang palm force of Qingyu Zhen, so how could he possibly have lasted this long? The one lying on the ground was an impostor, Qingyu Zhen in disguise.

What had just occurred was the Golden Cicada Transformation from the Dragon Escape Nine Transformations, using the Juzu as a decoy to make an escape.

The three stood together, confronting Lin Tengyuan. Even if severely poisoned, a Divine Origin Realm was still a Divine Origin Realm, not something one in the Innate Realm could contend with alone. It would be downright suicidal to recklessly spread out and surround him if they thought Lin Tengyuan looked a bit embarrassed in the current situation.

"Who are you?" Lin Tengyuan, kneeling, stared intently at Qingyu Zhen, who still maintained the appearance of Fujita Heijiro, "Someone who stands on equal footing with Luo Yan and Bu Lengchuan shouldn’t be a nobody, right?"

"What a coincidence, I am indeed a nobody!" Qingyu Zhen raised his hand to his face and kneaded it a few times, drastically changing his appearance, "Liu Xuande has met Mr. Lin, I believe Mr. Lin should have also heard of my name."

"To have Mr. Lin hear of your name, how could you possibly be someone unknown..."

"He’s stalling for time!" Luo Yan suddenly interrupted.

"Isn’t everyone?" Qing Yu smiled as he looked at Lin Tengyuan, "The art of poison-making in Japan might not be inferior to that of the Central Plains. I have yet to analyze the composition of the deadly poison hidden in the teeth of the Fujita Family’s Death Soldiers. But as for the Gu insects of the Southern Border, Japan surely doesn’t have those, right? Mr. Lin, how do you find the taste of the Golden Silkworm Gu?"

Lin Tengyuan had been poisoned with two kinds of deadly toxins. One was the snake venom found in the blood and Inner Strength of the Exorcism Sword Guard, inherited from the dropped ’White Camel Poison Scripture’ by Ouyang Ke. The other was the ’Golden Silkworm Gu’ that had dropped from Scorpion in the past.

While this Gu poison wasn’t as mystical as the similarly named Gu worms from this world’s Southern Border, its toxicity was shockingly intense. If someone in the Innate Realm were to be poisoned, unless there was an accident, it almost certainly spelled death. And even those in the Divine Origin Realm would find it difficult to cope. Lin Tengyuan would need to exhaust ten days to half a month to expel the ’Golden Silkworm Gu’ with his True Qi alone.

Qing Yu had invested all of the remaining ’Golden Silkworm Gu’ for this covert strike. And with their recent close encounter, the Void Eye combined with ’Knowledge Gained Through Experience’ had allowed him to observe Lin Tengyuan’s condition quite thoroughly.

Now, the gap between Lin Tengyuan and the three of them was no longer insurmountable but had been brought to an acceptable distance.

"Disguise Technique, Poison Technique, as well as the magic of the Golden Cicada Sheds Its Shell you just used, and even the esoteric brainwashing – your ceaseless trickery and unpredictable changes, standing alongside Luo Yan and Bu Lengchuan, you must be the last disciple of the Four Great Divine Capturers."

Lin Tengyuan slowly stood up, "I’ve heard the disciple of the Impermanence Divine Constable always operates in secret, never announcing even his name. Today, by revealing your name, it seems you’re quite confident in defeating Mr. Lin."

No, the disciple of the Impermanence Divine Constable had long since died, by my very own hands.

Qing Yu’s brows lifted slightly, amused by Lin Tengyuan’s rich imagination, but he couldn’t be bothered to correct him.

"But wanting to kill Mr. Lin is not so..."

Lin Tengyuan abruptly made his move, Blade Energy surged in all directions, incessant like the tide on the Luoshui River, rolling on without end.

"...easy."

The Divine Origin Realm, was a realm that could imbue True Qi with Divine Intent. Just like Lin Tengyuan, his Sword Force dense, like a river’s surge, cascaded towards Qing Yu and the others with the ferocity of a thousand li flood.

Qing Yu’s True Qi circulated within him, the Taiyi Splitting Light Sword Qi Integration Technique had already been prepared, ’Innate Gang Qi’ once again born from the extreme of Yin to Yang, clashing with the surging Blade Energy and booming like a tide smashing against rocks, breaking the waves, but the rock stood unyielding.

At the same time, Luo Yan and Bu Lengchuan launched their attacks from both sides at Lin Tengyuan, a fierce wind and bone-chilling Blade Energy vied to kill this severely injured, treacherous Silver Seal Constable, to achieve the feat of the Innate God Killing Essence.

"Futile."

Lin Tengyuan’s voice was cold and merciless, like the sword in his hand, filled with killing intent. His left hand formed a palm, sending out surging Hand Power that shattered the fierce winds, and his right hand adjusted the direction of his Blade Energy, turning the tide towards Bu Lengchuan. The waves that shattered in front of Qing Yu could not be withstood by Bu Lengchuan, the incessant Blade Energy enveloped him, swallowing him in its surge.

"Didn’t your master tell you not to show off before your enemy is killed? Only the one who survives in the end, has any right to boast."

Lin Tengyuan struck without hesitation, demonstrating the ruthless hand of an old hand in the worldly society. As soon as he made a move, he established an overwhelming momentum, and in a blink of an eye, Qing Yu and the others were in jeopardy.

"Today, you will accompany Mr. Fujita to death."
