CHAPTER 239: CHAPTER 212: ALLOW ME TO PROPERLY THANK EVERYONE

Lu Lin was carried onto a horse carriage.

Of course, it wasn’t an ordinary horse pulling the carriage, but a towering exotic beast Whistling Wind Horse standing at five meters tall.

Taking advantage of a break, Lu Lin glanced at this Whistling Wind Horse.

Hmm, not bad. Once we leave the city, I’ll make this horse my mount.

Inside the enclosed carriage, there was a very large and comfortable big bed where Lu Lin was placed, and someone even covered him with a blanket.

The vehicle moved slowly.

Lu Lin lay alone in the carriage compartment, with no one watching him.

However, when the carriage reached the city gate, it was stopped by someone.

Yanliu Clan, Three-eyed Clan, Yu Feng Clan, and a dozen private soldiers of the Ice Bone Clan surrounded them.

"Get out of the carriage and undergo inspection."

A soldier from the Ice Bone Clan stepped forward and said coldly.

Several young masters from Hang Tang City who were following behind quickly stepped forward, shouting, "What are you doing, what are you doing, all day not doing anything important, just knowing how to check our stuff."

"Do you know who my dad is?"

"My dad’s surname is Du, name Du Zhe."

"My dad is Shu You."

"My dad’s surname is Yue, Yue Piao Gold Master."

Several young masters were scrambling to report their family backgrounds.

They all belonged to the high-class families of Hang Tang City, and usually, when people saw them, they would avoid them. The gate soldiers knew their identities and naturally wouldn’t obstruct them too much.

But today, the one in charge at the city gate was no longer a soldier from the Yanliu Clan.

"I don’t care if your dad is Du Zhe or Shu You, all of you get off and undergo inspection."

"Otherwise, I will have you all thrown into the dungeon."

The leading soldier from the Ice Bone Clan exuded an aura, evidently reaching the Sixth level as an extraordinary master.

A chill spread around.

The young masters shivered instinctively, then stiffened their necks.

"Why, grandpa has never undergone an inspection in Hang Tang City, who do you think you are?"

"Want to inspect grandpa’s carriage? Humph, go find out who grandpa is first."

Hearing such arrogant words from the leading young master, the soldier from the Ice Bone Clan was not accustomed to this bad habit.

With a swipe of his steel blade, he said coldly, "Say that one more time?!"

The full force of the Sixth level was unleashed without reservation, and the surrounding chill intensified.

At this point, a squad leader from the Yanliu Clan ran over from behind.

He said with a smile, "Don’t be impulsive, don’t be impulsive. Brother, these indeed are Mr. Du, Mr. Shu, and Mr. Yue from our Hang Tang City. Brother, please let them pass."

"Their fathers are all associates of the City Lord, they wouldn’t do anything against our eight clans."

"See how well-behaved they are, everyone is an extraordinary species, extraordinary people don’t deceive extraordinary people."

"Please let us pass."

The young masters also took this opportunity to find a reason to back down.

The leading soldier from the Ice Bone Clan looked at the Yunliu Clan soldier beside him, then at the few pretentious young masters in front, and nodded, "Fine, I can let you out, but, you must let me see the inside of the carriage."

The young masters didn’t want to argue with the cold Ice Bone Clan soldier anymore, so they snorted coldly and turned to mount their horses.

The Ice Bone Clan soldier glanced at several people, lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Inside was only a frail Cat-eared girl covered with a blanket.

Under the bed was empty, not like a place to hide someone, so the Ice Bone Clan soldier let down the curtain and nodded to let them pass.

"Drive!"

The carriage started moving slowly, and Lu Lin, lying on the bed inside, exhaled lightly.

They made it out.

Everything went smoothly.

As the carriage traveled on the bumpy road outside the city, Lu Lin cursed the lack of suspension and closed his eyes to pretend to nap.

He even had time to take out the Message Conch and send a message to the Tian Dayin sisters, telling them to leave from the East gate, to go far and hide. He had a bit of trouble on his side and would meet them later.

He also contacted Bai Buyi, and there was a message inside the Message Conch from Bai Buyi, saying they had encountered three students from Iron Blood University and were currently in a cave roasting meats, telling Lu Lin not to worry about them.

Putting away the Message Conch, Lu Lin chuckled.

Unexpectedly, Bai Buyi, and the others were having a good time, even running into students from Iron Blood University.

Being able to go so deep into the Exotic Battlefield, their strength was at least at Fourth Level, possibly even reaching Fifth Level.

These are the elite students from Iron Blood University.

Speaking of which, the biennial Federation University Student Games should be starting soon. Once Lu Lin finishes this mission, he has to participate in the preliminary contest and can’t delay.

Little did he know that back at Dragon-watching Mountain, they were sent into the Mad Blade Secret Realm by Maffield. It seemed like a short time, but actually, more than half a month had passed.

The freshmen and seniors from Iron Blood University preparing for the preliminary contest had set out for Bovangpo City long ago.

While thinking this, the carriage Lu Lin was riding finally stopped.

This was a courtyard built in the Mountain Forest. When he was moved out of the carriage, Lu Lin clearly saw that the courtyard was well-maintained, but the architectural style—

Heh heh.

As for the strength of the young masters who were moving him, Lu Lin had already gauged it.

All of them were at Third Level, without even a Level 3 Peak.

Moreover, they didn’t look like diligent cultivators, their Star Power was shallow and unstable.

Lu Lin really liked dealing with such people.

He loved bullying the weak.

"Mr. Du, do you think we should have a taste before Mr. Hang arrives?"

The speaker looked lecherous.

"Scram, have you forgotten our rule?"

"Mr. Hang loves to drink the first pour of tea, if you enjoy it now, wait until Mr. Hang comes, see how he’ll deal with you."

"Right, let’s wait for Mr. Hang, I, I’ll go arrange for the evening’s meal first."

Meal?

Lying on the bed in the room, Lu Lin almost prepared to leap out, but hearing there would be a meal made his stomach rumble uncontrollably.

In that case, let’s wait.

Wait until the meal is ready, feast, then make a move.

The waiting was long and Lu Lin couldn’t cultivate, fearing the Star Power Fluctuation would catch others’ attention.

He recalled today’s encounter in the Masterless Mask’s Secret Realm.

Originally, Lu Lin was curious why, if Hang Tang failed to master, he shouldn’t leave the Secret Realm until he succeeded.

But after exiting the Secret Realm, Lu Lin suddenly felt dizzy, a sign of insufficient Spiritual Strength.

It seems that the illusionary realm within this Unnamed Mask relies on a person’s Spiritual Strength as its energy source.

If one’s Spiritual Strength is completely exhausted and yet unable to claim the mask, the person would directly fall unconscious.

This made Lu Lin feel a burst of fear.

If he were to fall unconscious in the cellar, the outcome would be much more dangerous than now — being sent out of the city by several young masters.

"The meal is ready, and Mr. Hang is also bringing along young masters from other families."

"After watching the dance performance, we can... hehehe."

"Alright, let’s go eat first. A full stomach gives you the strength to work."

A few young masters outside the room joked around.

In the room, Lu Lin opened his eyes.

Is the meal ready?

Has Mr. Hang also arrived?

What work do they have to do after the meal?

What kind of meal did Mr. Hang bring people over for? Is it a last supper?

Lu Lin took out his broken knife from the Storage Ring, wanting to revert to his original form.

Yet he found... he couldn’t revert back.

The Unnamed Mask, once used, lasts for at least six two-hour intervals, which is 12 hours.

He had started using it in the afternoon, and now only three to four hours had passed.

Lu Lin wailed internally.

Never mind, 12 hours is 12 hours. At worst, he’ll find Bai Buyi and the others tomorrow.

Tonight, first kill, then eat.

The few young masters in the courtyard were about to leave when they suddenly heard a door creak.

"Who is it."

The alert one turned around instantly, only to see the Catwoman-transformed Lu Lin emerge from the room, looking dazed and holding a broken knife.

"Miss, you’re awake?"

The person immediately put on a gentle and amiable expression.

"What happened to you, being abandoned in a cellar."

"Me?"

"Abandoned in a cellar?"

Lu Lin, looking bewildered, walked forward with the broken knife in hand.

"Yes, it was us who saved you. Right, are you hungry now? We’ve asked the kitchen to prepare some food for you."

"Come eat with us."

Lu Lin walked up to four or five young masters.

"I really have to thank you all."

"Let me properly thank you."

"No need, no need..."

The leading young master said modestly, his face just showing a suggestive look, when suddenly he found himself lifted skyward.

I... can fly?

No, why is only my head flying!

The other young masters, watching Lu Lin decapitate the leading one with one strike, were utterly stunned.

The Catwoman they had saved and planned to enjoy had killed Mr. Du?

"You..."

The person had just spoken one word before Lu Lin appeared in front of him, decapitating him with one strike.

The others reacted, ready to call for help, but Lu Lin killed them each with a kick.

One remained silent, trying to escape.

Lu Lin dashed out and punched him in the back.

Without even a struggle, the person died instantly.

"Ugh, disgusting."

Lu Lin spat while speaking.

But then he froze.

He clearly said "disgusting," yet it came out as "disgusting heart."

Did turning into Catwoman also change his personality?

Lu Lin worried secretly.

He then gathered the corpses and followed the smell to the restaurant.

Hang Ai was playing drinking games with some friends when he saw Lu Lin arrive and couldn’t help but feel overjoyed.

"Miss, you’re awake."

"I’m the one who saved you, the vice city lord of Hang Tang City, Hang Ai."

"Are you alright now?"

Lu Lin nodded.

As he came earlier, he had seen that there were seven young masters including Hang Ai in the restaurant.

Apart from them, there were four maids serving food, over ten dancing girls, and six chefs.

Totaling less than thirty people.

However, among them, only Hang Ai’s strength had reached the Fourth Level, while the other young masters were only at the Third Level. The maids, dancing girls, and chefs were only at the First Level.

Well, it looks like tonight is another night of great slaughter.

Lu Lin walked slowly to Hang Ai, slightly bowed:

"Thank you, Mr. Hang, thank you all for saving me."

"Please allow me to properly thank you."

"Haha, no need, young lady. Helping others is the source of happiness. We didn’t expect any return for helping you."

Hang Ai said cheerily.

The other young masters looked at the Catwoman-transformed Lu Lin with satisfied expressions, their faces showing an understanding that requires no words.

"Come, miss, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Sit down and have some food."

"Alright, thank you, Mr. Hang."

Lu Lin said, taking out the broken knife from the Storage Ring.

New Moon Slash.

Sword Intent.

Blood splashed suddenly.
