Chapter 611: Chapter 608: Wasted Effort

Lin Tian looked at the Gu cultivator who had slapped his palm in surprise and thought to himself, could this guy have been driven insane by fear, calling people to catch him wasn’t wrong.

More than a dozen people rushed in from outside the door, each dressed in Japanese samurai garb with long katana hanging at their waists, and their clothes bulging as if hiding other weapons.

Upon entering, they saw Nishio Yoshiaki collapsed on the ground and were uncertain of which order to follow.

"You all, step back," Lord Gu commanded coldly.

No more than a minute after these samurai had entered, they all withdrew. Lin Tian glanced at Ning Luoxi, who was also frowning slightly, unable to understand the purpose of the Gu cultivator’s behavior.

"Lin Tian, you just asked if you were welcome here, and on behalf of the Shrine, I express our welcome," Lord Gu turned around, faced Lin Tian, and spoke politely in fluent Chinese.

"The fact that we are enemies is unchangeable, so speak plainly," Lin Tian said with a frown, wondering what the Gu cultivator was up to.

"Nothing is unchangeable. For a talent like you, we welcome you very much. As long as you join us, we will all be friends instead of enemies, don’t you agree?" The Gu cultivator went straight to the point, apparently trying to recruit Lin Tian.

Lin Tian smiled lightly and simply said, "You want to recruit me? I’m not interested."

"Interest is something to be discussed. If you agree to join, after we take down the Xiao Family, it will all belong to you," the Gu cultivator threw out what he thought was a tempting offer.

"Using something that doesn’t belong to you to lure others, do you think others are fools, or is it your brain that has a problem? Everyone can issue an empty promise; stop wasting words, even if I were a beggar I wouldn’t join you, let alone the fact that I am not interested in that amount of money," Lin Tian said disdainfully.

"So you refuse the toast only to drink a forfeit. Do you still think that while you’re on my turf, life and death are in your hands?" the Gu cultivator, failing to persuade, immediately showed his true colors.

"Damn, where’s the use in bragging? Try to take my punch first," Lin Tian had no patience for all this talk of toasts and forfeits, as if he was some sort of invincible being.

Before his words had even finished, he made his move. It seemed like he only took one step, but he had already flashed in front of the Gu cultivator, then launched a punch straight for his throat.

With the power of Lin Tian’s fist, this punch, if landed, could send the Gu cultivator’s head flying.

However, just as he threw the punch, Lin Tian felt a strong force from the side, and with a "bang," collided with another fist.

A massive force surged, causing Lin Tian to step back three paces to dispel the impact, while the person who collided with him also slid outwards before stopping five or six meters away.

The man in sunglasses! Lin Tian looked closely, and the person who had exchanged blows with him in that instant was the man in sunglasses who had been silent the whole time!

When the man in sunglasses had picked up the massive lid with one hand, Lin Tian had sensed that he was no ordinary man, and the exchange just now confirmed this fact. Although the man in sunglasses slid out, his expression remained unchanged.

Lin Tian was a zombie, and not everyone could withstand the force of his punch. A weaker Ancient Martial Artist would end up with a crippled arm, but the man in sunglasses’ arm was fine.

"Be careful, Lin Tian. When that Japanese man exchanged punches with you, I couldn’t sense the flow of his True Qi, which means he might practice something like the Ancient Body Technique," Ning Luoxi said, frowning.

"Miss Luoxi might have overlooked something. Last time in Huaxia, there were half zombies, so there’s a greater possibility that this man in sunglasses is a half zombie," Lin Tian, however, considered the possibility of half zombies.

If the Gu cultivator had managed to cultivate four half zombies, cultivating one more wouldn’t be surprising.

"Half zombie?" Ning Luoxi and the Heavenly Master Girl were both startled, especially the Heavenly Master Girl who was very sensitive to the word "zombie" as she, being a Demon Exterminating Master, had the duty of hunting zombies as part of her responsibilities.

"You don’t believe me? I’ll force his true form out and see what abilities this Half Zombie really has," Lin Tian said with a cold laugh.

"I’m afraid you won’t get that chance," the Gu Cultivator suddenly said, his tone a bit eerie, but before he could finish his sentence, he vanished into thin air.

It turned out that a passage had silently opened beside the control panel, and the Gu Cultivator disappeared down the passage. The passage opened quickly and closed just as fast.

The man with the sunglasses also disappeared inside the passage that had opened up in the ground.

Damn it, they escape quickly. Where did their courage from their tough talk go? Lin Tian had nothing but contempt for the boasting Gu Cultivator.

Furthermore, this Lord Gu actually left behind his subordinates, including two leaders, Nishio Yoshiaki and Miyajima Tairo, who remained in the greenhouse.

"Now it’s just you left. Would you prefer to take your own lives, or shall I do it for you?" Lin Tian asked, looking at Nishio and Miyajima with an ill-intended sneer.

Lin Tian, afraid they wouldn’t understand, had Ning Luoxi translate for him.

"Lin Tian, you... what are you trying to do! You think you’ve won? When Lord Gu returns, it will be your end!" Nishio Yoshiaki stammered.

Kikuchi Mika looked at Lin Tian and said, "You... are Lin Tian? I..."

"No need to say more. I’ve said it before, you don’t belong in a place like the Sun Shadow Association. I’m giving you a choice now, leave the Sun Shadow Association, and I’ll take you with me. If you choose to stay, I won’t kill you. Think it over," Lin Tian interrupted her and said.

After Ning Luoxi translated for him, Kikuchi Mika fell silent.

"Kikuchi Mika, think carefully about what the consequences of betraying your boss are!" Nishio Yoshiaki yelled loudly.

Miyajima Tairo, however, said, "I’m willing to leave. Lady Kikuchi, please talk to Mr. Lin, ask him to take me with him and not to kill me. I don’t want to die yet."

How shameless someone must be to say such words. Just moments ago, they were giving her a hard time and wanting to possess her, and now facing death, they could lower themselves to beg.

"Mr. Miyajima, you..." Nishio Yoshiaki was at a loss for words at what Miyajima had said.

"Lin Tian, whether you’re a ninja from here or Lin Tian from Huaxia, I’ll go with you. But before we leave, could you grant me a request?" Kikuchi Mika ignored Miyajima Tairo and looked at Lin Tian.

"What is your request?" Lin Tian asked in English.

"Help me cripple Miyajima Tairo," Kikuchi Mika said.

"With pleasure," Lin Tian said with a smile, and before Miyajima Tairo could react, he stepped forward and kicked between Miyajima’s legs.

"Ah..." A pig-like scream tore through the greenhouse as Miyajima Tairo collapsed to the ground, his body curling up in pain like a shrimp, and crimson blood seeped, staining his trousers red, like a menstrual flow.

"Brother Lin, I... I didn’t say to cripple that particular spot," Kikuchi Mika stuttered, her face slightly red, while Ning Luoxi and the Heavenly Master Girl looked at Lin Tian with contempt. How could he strike there in front of a lady?

The other Japanese also clutched their groins in fear, but just then, a harsh "click" sound suddenly echoed within the greenhouse.
