Chapter 263: Chapter 260: What Kind of Grudge? Hiring People to Kill Me?

The Martial Monk hadn’t even finished speaking.

He watched as the long spear in Lin Yi’s hand thrust toward him.

The Martial Monk didn’t dare to be careless, hastily using the long staff in his hands to block.

CLANG—

The moment the spear and staff collided,

the sound of metal striking metal rang out once more.

The immense force made the webbing of the Martial Monk’s thumb and forefinger feel as if it were tearing apart.

His arm went numb, and he almost dropped the long staff in his hands.

He stumbled back several steps and looked up at Lin Yi.

It was only then that he understood why those first-year kids would offer two crates of Second-Grade Compound Potions just to kill a martial examinee from the Old District.

This kid was genuinely hard to kill. If he wasn’t careful, he might be the one who ended up dead here.

’I was really too careless...’

The Martial Monk grew increasingly wary. Looking at Lin Yi again, he no longer dared to let his guard down.

ROAR—

Suddenly, the long spear in Lin Yi’s hand seemed to transform into a ferocious tiger.

It lunged straight for the Martial Monk.

The Martial Monk’s expression changed, and he retreated continuously.

He swung the long staff in his hands, creating a defensive screen in front of him, trying to force the tiger back.

But in the next moment, a long, black shadow shot out from within the tiger’s form.

Like a venomous snake, it struck straight for his throat.

”Damn it...”

The Martial Monk was now frantic, hastily trying to block with his staff.

But he was a little too slow.

PFFT—

The Black Gold Tiger Head Spear pierced straight through his throat. The Martial Monk felt a sudden chill in his neck.

Then, his breathing was completely cut off.

In terror, he tried to look down to see what had happened.

But as soon as he lowered his head slightly, a torrent of blood gushed out.

SQUIRT... Blood splattered.

Only then did the Martial Monk realize his life was rapidly fading away.

His body grew cold, and his consciousness began to blur.

He looked up, glaring at Lin Yi, wanting to reach up and pull the spear from his throat.

But in the next instant, Lin Yi gripped the spear and yanked it back.

PFFT. With another soft sound, the Martial Monk’s sturdy body swayed a few times.

With a heavy THUD, he collapsed to the ground.

Blood flowing from the hole in his neck quickly stained the ground crimson.

And then his consciousness faded completely...

[Would you like to plunder the traits?]

Lin Yi glanced at the Martial Monk’s available traits.

Although they were mostly low-tier blue and green talents,

Lin Yi now operated on a single principle: as long as a talent didn’t have negative effects,

he would take it, even if it was just a cooking talent.

After leveling it up in the future, who knew, he might even achieve some mastery in the culinary arts.

He might even become a Spirit Chef...

”Take them all!”

[Talent traits successfully plundered!]

A notification flashed before his eyes, but Lin Yi didn’t even spare the Martial Monk’s body a second glance.

Just as he was about to leave,

a sudden sense of danger spread rapidly through his mind.

In the next instant, Lin Yi quickly dodged to the side.

WHOOSH—

An arrow shot past the spot where he had just been standing.

Lin Yi quickly turned to look in the direction the arrow had come from.

There, atop a three-story storefront, a person holding a bow and arrow was hiding.

A cold glint flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes.

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH—

Before he could do anything, three more arrows shot toward him.

The arrows were faster than bullets.

They reached Lin Yi in the blink of an eye.

Just as Lin Yi was about to dodge,

the arrows were suddenly frozen in mid-air.

Then, one by one, they fell to the ground.

SCREECH—

Xiaoqi circled overhead.

Lin Yi glanced up at it, the corners of his mouth turning up slightly.

”Thanks!”

He then pushed off his toes and charged toward the storefront across the way.

Executing his Body Technique, Lin Yi began to move in a serpentine pattern.

This made it impossible for the archer hiding on the storefront roof to get a clear lock on his position.

Just as the archer was getting anxious,

SCREECH—

with another clear cry, Xiaoqi appeared directly above him.

The archer was startled and quickly looked up at Xiaoqi.

Just as he prepared to nock an arrow and shoot Xiaoqi down,

a sudden, icy chill washed over him.

The archer’s bow, arrows, and both of his arms were instantly frozen solid.

A look of terror crossed his eyes. As he tried to break free from the ice,

WHOOSH—

a black spear shot straight toward him.

The archer’s heart pounded wildly. Before he could react,

PFFT—

the spear ran him through.

The archer let out a bloodcurdling scream as the immense impact sent his body flying backward.

By the time Lin Yi reached the rooftop in a few leaps,

the archer was already dead, the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear still impaling his body.

After plundering his talent traits as well,

Lin Yi walked over and began searching the body for bracelets.

The bracelets for first-years, second-years, and third-years were all completely different colors.

First-year freshmen had green bracelets.

Second-years had blue, and third-years had gold.

By the time they reached their fourth year, they wore red bracelets.

On this archer, as well as the Martial Monk from before,

he found that in addition to their own blue bracelets, each of them also had two or three green bracelets.

Seeing these bracelets, Lin Yi thought he understood how they had gotten in here.

They used these freshman bracelets to accept missions, then used the mission-loaded bracelets to get inside.

The guards outside the city gates only checked for a bracelet and a mission.

They didn’t care if the person entering was actually a freshman or not.

That’s how they were able to come in here and kill with impunity.

’And each bracelet represents a dead freshman.’

’Which means they each have the blood of at least two or three first-year students on their hands.’

’And that doesn’t even count the ones they killed without taking their bracelets.’

Lin Yi checked all the bracelets one by one.

Aside from their own, the stolen green bracelets were already completely empty.

Lin Yi tossed the other bracelets onto the ground.

Then, he transferred the contents of their blue bracelets into his own Storage Ring.

He had to admit, the contents of these two blue bracelets were quite substantial.

There were more than a dozen bottles of First- and Second-Grade Compound Potions alone.

There was also a miscellaneous assortment of items, like alchemy and forging materials.

He even found twenty or thirty corpses and Demon Cores from 3-star Demon Beasts.

If all this were sold, it would be worth several million, maybe even tens of millions.

”Looks like these guys killed a lot of people to loot all this stuff!”

After inspecting his haul from the two assassins,

Lin Yi was quite surprised by the sheer amount of loot in the bracelets.

He glanced down at the archer lying on the ground.

Then, he walked over to the corpse and picked up the bow and arrows scattered nearby.

”This bow looks to be of decent quality. It should at least be a mid-grade weapon, right?”

After inspecting it, just as he had with the Martial Monk’s iron staff below,

he tossed it all into his Storage Ring.

Once he had finished up, Lin Yi was about to leave.

Suddenly, a cool voice drifted over.

”Taking so much of their stuff without so much as a ’thank you.’ Isn’t that a bit rude?”

Hearing this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh.

He glanced back in the direction of the voice.

”Who on earth hates me this much? How many people did they hire to kill me?”

From the darkness, a man with a ball of purple flame flickering in his palm walked out.

By the light of the purple flame, Lin Yi could see the man was wearing a black leather jacket.

He was about 1.8 meters tall and reasonably handsome.

But his eyes held a sinister, wicked look...

The man’s lips curled up. ”Who hired me doesn’t matter. What matters is who gets to leave here tonight!”

Lin Yi exhaled a long breath.

He nodded and said, ”Then let’s find out!”

With a push of his feet, Lin Yi shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, lunging at the man.

The Black Gold Tiger Head Spear in his hand thrust fiercely toward the man’s heart.

Seeing this, the man was startled. He hadn’t expected Lin Yi to be so aggressive.

He just attacked without a word of warning.

He quickly moved, turning to the side to evade Lin Yi’s attack.

But he had underestimated his opponent.

Just as Lin Yi was halfway through his charge, the spear changed direction, swinging out in a horizontal sweep.

The man was alarmed and quickly tapped his toes on the ground.

His body floated back three or four meters.

Only then did he barely manage to dodge Lin Yi’s attack.

Seeing that his first move didn’t kill the man, Lin Yi had no intention of giving him a chance to counterattack.

He charged at the man once more.

The spear in Lin Yi’s hands was at times incredibly ferocious, and at others, it moved like a Spiritual Snake—unpredictable and strange.

From the very beginning, he forced the man to constantly dodge.

Although the man occasionally launched a counterattack,

it had little effect. Not only did he fail to push Lin Yi back, but his resistance seemed to make Lin Yi fight even more fiercely.

This left the man in an increasingly sorry state, with no option but to flee...

The two fought on the rooftop of the storefront for over ten minutes.

The man was completely suppressed the entire time.

Aside from running and dodging, he couldn’t mount a single attack that posed any threat to Lin Yi.

The man grew more and more anxious.

’If this keeps up, I’ll be defeated sooner or later.’

But Lin Yi pursued him relentlessly, as if he had the man completely in his grasp.

”Let’s see how long you can keep dodging...”

Suddenly, Lin Yi stopped.

He was no longer chasing the man, which made the man laugh inwardly.

”What’s wrong? Running out of stamina?”

”Your spear technique might be sharp and fierce, but it must consume a lot of energy!”

”A pity you don’t know how to conserve your strength. You only know how to attack relentlessly, which just shows your combat experience is still...”

Before the man could finish his gloating,

vines erupted from the ground beneath his feet.

They quickly entangled his legs.

The man was shocked. No matter how he struggled, it was useless.

The vines were too tough to be broken easily.

Immediately after, the man was hit by a wave of mental assault.

It was like an invisible sharp sword slamming into his mind.

In an instant, the man’s expression froze, and his gaze went vacant.

Lin Yi walked toward him, spear in hand. When he got close,

the man didn’t seem to see him at all.

He just stood there, stiff as a board.

Until the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear pierced his body.

A massive amount of blood gushed out.

And his corpse fell to the ground.

[Would you like to plunder the traits...]

Lin Yi looked them over and nodded. ”Take them all!”
