CHAPTER 3050: CHAPTER 3070: ASSASSINATION

Lin Chen said simply, but Lv Shuyi felt as if she had been struck on the head.

Yes, if she really dared to die, she would have died directly, why would she still be talking nonsense?

All this talk was just because she was afraid of death and didn’t want to die.

Lv Shuyi said with a threatening air, "I’m negotiating a deal with you. Although I did think of dealing with you, aren’t you unharmed? So, as long as you promise to let me live, besides teaching the control technique of the Yin Yang Water Fire Mirror, I will also compensate you with a batch of highly valuable natural treasures, and give you three top-grade Spiritual Treasures!"

"These three top-grade Spiritual Treasures are immensely powerful. Once you obtain them, you will be even more formidable, and your strength will soar rapidly!"

A delighted smile appeared on Lin Chen’s face, "Really? That sounds wonderful!"

Hope flickered in Lv Shuyi’s eyes, "Have you agreed?"

Lin Chen grinned, and just as a glimmer of hope started to rise in Lv Shuyi’s heart, he crisply responded, "I do not agree!"

Lv Shuyi’s face flushed with rage as she glared at Lin Chen, "Are you toying with me?"

Lin Chen smiled lightly, "Although I’m not particularly interested in top-grade Spiritual Treasures, I have many companions. Surely someone will find them useful. Had you not mentioned them, I wouldn’t have known you possessed anything worthwhile."

Lv Shuyi’s face turned ashen; she understood what Lin Chen meant.

He had no intentions of letting her go at all, so what was the point of what she had just said?

She had implicated herself!

Getting caught by him meant all those treasures would be his anyway, right?

Lin Chen stood up and said with a smile, "Senior, please make your move. Let’s not dawdle any longer, there might already be people waiting outside."

Zhen Liuxue made a sound of acknowledgment and leaped into action.

"There’s no need to fight! I concede!"

Lv Shuyi actually gave up directly. She looked at Zhen Liuxue: "I can’t even escape your domain, so I won’t humiliate myself any further."

Zhen Liuxue calmly replied, "A wise decision."

Lv Shuyi leaped down, standing on the prow of the boat with her hands outstretched in a gesture of surrender.

Just as Zhen Liuxue was about to move to seal Lv Shuyi’s Sea of Knowledge, Lv Shuyi’s outstretched hands suddenly flipped, emitting two streaks of black light that surged with a terrifying aura—one shot towards Zhen Liuxie, and the other towards Lin Chen.

Zhen Liuxue’s expression changed dramatically. She had not expected the opponent to have such a ruthless move hidden away.

The force of the domain unfurled instantly, with ripples forming in front of her like ripples on the water.

The black light plunged into the ripples and disappeared, only to reappear eerily from within Lv Shuyi’s sleeve, as if it had never been fired.

Zhen Liuxue’s strength was overwhelming, managing to block the strike that was almost upon her; however, Lin Chen was not so lucky.

Lv Shuyi’s attack was too sudden. Without any mobilization of her spiritual power in the Sea of Knowledge, she simply triggered the attack as swiftly and silently as darts from sleeves, catching one completely off guard with its speed and ferocity.

Lin Chen was very close to Lv Shuyi, and at this short distance, in the face of such a sudden assault, any space between them could be entirely disregarded. The attack, directed in two ways, drew Zhen Liuxue’s attention with the black light aimed at her, creating a momentary gap in her domain.

Lv Shuyi had just raised her hand, and the black light was already hurtling towards Lin Chen.

"Damn!"

Lin Chen, too, was startled by the sudden attack, only managing to curse instinctively as the black light had already hit him, piercing through the Protective Barrier of his Lawful Robe and striking his body.

The enormous energy violently collided with Lin Chen’s body, causing him to explode instantly into a cloud of blood fog.

The black light, having burst Lin Chen, continued forward, plunging into the lake bottom and causing the surface of the lake to explode open, creating a deep abyss that seemed bottomless.

"Ah!"

The sudden turn of events triggered a desperate scream from the many women on the boat, who took to the skies in horror, staring down at the abyss that had suddenly appeared, and the lake water that was frantically rushing backwards.

The handsome and kind man, the one who was going to rescue their group, had just been killed like that!

"Hahaha..."

Lv Shuyi laughed manically, her face twisted in a mix of resentment and madness.

"Three top-grade Spiritual Treasures, didn’t you want them? This is one of them, given to you, but you couldn’t catch it, hahaha!"

Zhen Liuxue glanced at the dispersing blood fog beside her, with a trace of anger in her eyes.

Although it was only one of Lin Chen’s Avatars that had perished, her fury stemmed from the fact that it happened right before her eyes.

If the true body of Lin Chen had been attacked, it certainly would have withstood it, as the real body’s strength, realm, and divine abilities were incomparable to that of an Avatar. Thus, logically, the incident was not significant, but Zhen Liuxue was still angry.

This was like a slap in her own face!

Zhen Liuxue fixed her gaze on Lv Shuyi’s maniacally distorted face and said coldly, "You truly deserve death!"
