Chapter 358 Retribution?
"Baram, Hua Lee, come forth and capture Lin Yun. Remember, don't let him die!" At that moment, Taiyi turned his head towards the remaining two members of the Sky Group and issued his orders.
Of the four members of the Lin family, only Lin Yi remained. Even though the firearms Lin Yi wielded possessed formidable power, they were of no consequence now.
Baram, Hua Lee — one was at the Mid Term Realm of Huajin, and the other was in the late stages of Huajin.
Let alone him...
The spark in Taiyi's eyes flickered a few times, ultimately deciding not to "kill" Lin Yi with his concealed weapon. He guessed that this might be a robot with the strength of a martial arts Grandmaster. Such a robot held great research value.
A live specimen is naturally more valuable than a dead one.
Anyway, the strength of Lin Yi was merely at the early stages of Huajin. Once Taiyi freed up his hands, capturing them should be no challenge at all.
Lin Yun couldn't be killed because Taiyi still needed to extract the source of the alien technology from him.
"Yes, Supreme Elder!"
The two members of the Sky Group nodded and continued advancing towards Lin Yun.
Having killed three quite troublesome martial arts Grandmasters with a single strike, Taiyi feel quite invigorated.
"Bang—bang—bang—"
On the other side, Lin Yi continued to fire at these two members of the Sky Group, launching a network of bullets at the two martial arts Grandmasters.
But at that moment, Taiyi waved his hand and once again flung several cold gleams.
The next moment, Lin Yi's two arms were cut off and the weapons in his hands naturally fell to the ground. A gush of fresh blood spurted from his stumps before subsequently stopping, similar to a martial arts Grandmaster controlling the contraction of blood vessels. However, it was an appalling sight to behold.
Taiyi frowned slightly upon seeing this.
Could it be that the opponent was not a robot?
Was it too much like a real person?
This was unlike the robots they had encountered decades ago.
What he didn't know was that in order for these robots to be more like real people, Lin Yun specifically custom-ordered this in the Cosmic Trading System.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Seeing this, Baram and Hua Lee let out a sigh of relief, reassured. They rushed towards Lin Yun more quickly.
Lin Yun had already risen and had gritted his teeth slightly. He began to totter towards the cliff at the mountain's peak. It seemed as though he was simply trying to escape Baram and Hua Lee's pursuit.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, the crowd watched on with mixed feelings.
The three martial arts Grandmasters of the Qingyun Company were killed in one hit, one Grandmaster lost two arms. It was evident that the opponent wanted to capture alive. The Qingyun Company's innate strongman was clearly no match for Taiyi, the outcome was hard to predict. The company's boss, Lin Yun, was seen embarking dreadfully on a journey towards the end of the road.
Could it be that Qingyun Company's influence, which had taken the world by storm, including possessing innate powerhouses, was about to be extinguished just like that?
"Indeed, no matter how powerful one is, they cannot oppose the authorities; otherwise, they will undoubtedly die..."
A martial artist sighed softly.
Originally, he thought that his martial arts skills were formidable, and he had powerful forces at his side, which could confront the authorities to a certain extent. Indeed, he had been doing so in ordinary times. Now it seems that he should be more restrained.
"Even the legendary innate masters are no match, we are like ants..."
Just like the martial artist who thought so, there were many more martial artists. Watching the Qingyun Company's martial arts Grandmasters and Lin Yun in such a tragic state, they all felt rather solemn.
Especially, some strong martial artists knew that the Qingyun Company had reached this point entirely due to the pressure of the Huaxia's official powers.
If it weren't for those large families and forces eyeing the Qingyun Company, if they hadn't manipulated the official powers, and if they hadn't crossed the line multiple times, would the Qingyun Company have ended up like this?
This situation was akin to the numerous heroes who were forced up Liangshan in the Water Margin. Unfortunately, under current circumstances, the authorities were not this weak, and the Qingyun Company didn't have time to make such a big fuss. They couldn't even make the authorities bow their heads before they were about to fall.
"Lin Yun..."
"Brother Lin Yi..."
Lin Mengmeng and Zhang Haoran gritted their teeth.
Especially Lin Mengmeng, her beautiful eyes were already filled with tears. In her view, Lin Yun ended up in this state entirely because he had stood up for her. It pained her to see Lin Yun in such a miserable condition.
"Mengmeng, you mustn't be impetuous. The opponent is too powerful. If you go up now, it won't help at all. Besides, the opponent represents the authorities. If you go over, your brothers will have no chance of being saved. Perhaps, Lin Yun has other means.
In that case, if you go up now, it will only create more confusion." Seeing Lin Mengmeng like this, Lin Yuanshan was extremely anxious and started persuasively as he pulled Lin Mengmeng's arm.
He knew his daughter very well. She was a very righteous person and may act impulsively, regardless of the consequences, even unto death.
Although he was also very concerned about Lin Yun's fate and deeply sympathized with his current plight, he was more concerned about his daughter's safety.
"Haoran, you mustn't be impulsive. This matter is now outside our hands to control. I see that they haven't made a move on Lin Yun. They probably don't want to kill him. After this matter, let's see if there are any other changes... " Zhang Wentian likewise incessantly comforted his son.
"Our martial artists can actually be so powerful..."
"From now on, I must definitely work hard in my training. I want to be as strong as them in the future..."
Some people were more impressed by the power displayed by Taiyi and Lin Tian and expressed excitement.
As for who died, who won, they didn't care.
"What a pity, the talent of this Lin Yun is not inferior to Taiyi's..."
Some people pitied Lin Yun's talent. Given the current situation, it looked like Lin Yun was about to bite the dust. It would be quite a pity since he was such an astonishing genius.
"Hahaha! Lin Yun is about to die. He deserves it! This is retribution. This is retribution, indeed! He dared cripple my martial arts.
If it weren't for me, the government wouldn't have discovered him..." Among the crowd, Zhong Nan laughed maniacally.
He was genuinely joyful. With Lin Yun dead and the powers behind Qingyun Company coming to an end, he didn't have to worry about Lin Yun retaliating against the Baji Sect and the Zhong Family. However, his Dantian was also ruined, and his martial arts future was completely destroyed. These mixed feelings merged, causing his thinking to be somewhat maddening at that moment.
"Slap!"
"Shut up!" Qin Daoming once again slapped Zhong Nan across the face, fuming.
How could Zhong Nan be such an idiot? How hadn't he noticed this before?
It was laughable; did he actually go out of his way to defend such an idiot?
How many fellows are lurking behind the Qingyun Company? At least they had more than ten martial arts Grandmasters. How many have died so far?
Granted, these martial arts Grandmasters were nothing in front of Taiyi and the government, but they were quite powerful from the perspective of the Baji Sect. Perhaps, even if the Qingyun Company suffered such a loss and even the root cause of the whole thing, Lin Yun died, they perhaps won't have the energy or intention to deal with Baji Sect.
But with Zhong Nan speaking out like this, even if the Qingyun Company died, they'd probably try to take Zhong Nan down with them. And what about him, who had stood up for Zhong Nan?
Accurately speaking, it was all because he stood up for Zhong Nan that Lin Yun's power was completely exposed. Therefore, Qin Daoming was so furious at Zhong Nan's words. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
Did he want him to die with him too?
