Chapter 223 A Hasty End, and Also a New Beginning

"You've arrived just in time."

"The punches thrown by this person are terrifying; try not to get hit. On the other hand, the opponent is relatively slow."

"As for the one playing the flute, you'd best cover your ears. This fellow attacks with sound."

Chen Shou immediately relayed the intelligence to Si Jinyan.

Since Yun Shao had arranged for Si Jinyan to reinforce him, the latter must be capable of handling the situation.

"I understand," Si Jinyan nodded.

"Si Jinyan, one of Zhao Yunhai's lackeys, I'm not mistaken, am I?"

Bei Chen's gaze fixed on Si Jinyan, his fists clenched with a cracking sound.

If it weren't for this fellow's sudden appearance, Chen Shou would already be lying on the ground.

"The enemy has a lot of men. They don't seem like ordinary people."

Lu Yan appeared behind Bei Chen, his eyes warily scanning the surrounding enemies who had them cornered.

"So what if they have many men? They are no match for a single punch."

Bei Chen sneered dismissively.

Si Jinyan, hearing the sounds of battle from behind, signaled with his eyes, and two team members vanished from sight.

"Kill!!!"

With a wave of Si Jinyan's hand, his subordinates charged into the fray.

"Come!!!"

Bei Chen balled up his fist and charged forward.

"This is a good opportunity to test this move."

The music from Lu Yan's flute suddenly intensified, the sound forming sharp swords, dancing without a dancer.

"This fellow's strength is indeed considerable. If I hadn't come, you might not have been able to handle him."

Si Jinyan watched as this person used music to form swords; it was rather interesting.

"By the way, what's the origin of these two? Are they some remnants that weren't cleaned up properly?"

Chen Shou looked at the vengeful spirits gathering around him and waved them to help.

Under the siege of numerous ability users, their coordinated attacks, even with Bei Chen's invincible punch, couldn't withstand the control abilities.

Bei Chen was gradually accumulating new injuries, cold sweat beading on his forehead, his breaths becoming heavier.

"I didn't expect these people to be special ability users. Those in the back are the ones I should deal with one by one."

"Lu Yan, help me deal with those in the back."

Bei Chen suddenly called for help.

"Understood."

Lu Yan's music began to focus on disrupting the rear enemy personnel who were proficient in control.

"Boom!!!"

Bei Chen's pressure instantly reduced, and he shattered a person's impervious body with a single punch, sending them flying.

Seeing this, Si Jinyan instantly grabbed his team member and moved to a safe area.

"It seems I'll have to make a move myself."

Although Si Jinyan only possessed the simple teleportation ability, he had mastered its application to an extraordinary degree.

The next second, Si Jinyan appeared behind a team member, and they vanished from their original spot.

Boom!!!

The instant Si Jinyan and the team member reappeared, Lu Yan was sent flying.

Not bothering with further niceties, Bei Chen was also sent flying.

Various control abilities ensnared Lu Yan and Bei Chen.

Teleportation, besides its use for escape and surprise attacks, also served a supportive role, a decision Si Jinyan had carefully considered.

Many powerful ability potions were laid out before him, but he had chosen the unassuming teleportation ability.

His ability, combined with that of this team member, was to find weaknesses and deliver a fatal blow.

Everyone had weaknesses or defensive flaws. Once a weakness was discovered, it could be fatal.

Even though Lu Yan and Bei Chen were formidable, if they were caught off guard by a surprise attack.

"We got them."

Chen Shou watched as Si Jinyan so easily dealt with the two, his face filled with admiration.

As the vengeful spirits rushed towards them after they were attacked.

That chilling aura made both Bei Chen and Lu Yan shiver.

Boom!!!

Powerful forces erupted from within Bei Chen and Lu Yan, and they broke free in an instant.

"I was just careless for a moment, but my real fight has just begun."

"Teleportation? A decent ability, but unfortunately, if I'm on guard, your surprise attack won't succeed."

Lu Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Despite being injured, it wasn't serious.

"All it takes is one punch. Create an opportunity for me, and I'll take down Si Jinyan first."

As Bei Chen spoke, his phone suddenly vibrated. He quickly took it out and answered.

At that very moment, Lu Yan's phone also rang.

Simultaneously, Lu Yan's expression turned extremely grim and dark.

"Why did it suddenly go quiet?"

Si Jinyan, the mastermind behind these two calls, gestured for everyone to push forward as the two answered.

Seeing the cessation of hostilities, Chen Shou hurried to Si Jinyan's side, his curiosity piqued.

"What exactly did you do to them that made them look at you like they wanted to kill you?"

Si Jinyan, without reservation, said in front of everyone, "I merely sent people to invite their loved ones here as guests."

"After all, in a foreign land, I was just doing a good deed."

"You certainly are doing a good deed," Chen Shou said with a twitch of his lips.

Good heavens, what a fellow indeed.

Si Jinyan managed to describe kidnapping in such a refined and innocent manner.

"Let my sister go."

Lu Yan's expression became extremely anxious.

His only weakness was his sister, who was still in high school; she was just a child.

"What have you done to them? Si Jinyan, using such despicable means, is that your only skill?"

Bei Chen hadn't expected all seven of his older sisters to be captured as hostages.

*Clap, clap, clap!!!*

Si Jinyan clapped his hands, and a vortex of earthy yellow suddenly appeared on the ground.

Lu Yan's younger sister and Bei Chen's seven sisters, all with different appearances and equally stunning beauty, emerged.

"Brother!!!"

"Little Chen!!!"

Hearing the helpless pleas of their closest kin, both felt their hearts shatter.

But Lu Yan and Bei Chen dared not move, not even the slightest excessive action.

"What must I do to get my sister back?"

"Release them, and we can talk."

Lu Yan and Bei Chen now possessed strength but dared not act. Their weaknesses were completely grasped by Si Jinyan.

"Wait, I need to take a call."

Just as Si Jinyan was about to speak, his phone rang. Upon seeing the caller ID, his expression turned respectful.

"Young Master Yun."

"Everything will be discussed after I arrive."

This was the first time Si Jinyan had heard Young Master Yun speak in such a serious tone.

"What's going on?"

Chen Shou, seeing Si Jinyan's change in demeanor, quickly asked.

"Young Master Yun is coming, and we will wait until he arrives to discuss anything."

Si Jinyan was unsure of what was happening, but Young Master Yun's word was law.

"Judging by his tone, Zhao Yunhai seems to be coming in person. What should we do? Isn't this a good opportunity to assassinate Zhao Yunhai?"

"And if we can catch Zhao Yunhai, we still have a chance to turn the tide."

Bei Chen, looking at his seven older sisters with worry, quietly said to Lu Yan beside him.

"They are not in immediate danger. Let's assess the situation; don't act rashly."

Lu Yan was also hesitating now, lacking his previous decisiveness.

Si Jinyan looked up at the increasingly gloomy sky, a growing unease settling in his heart.

"Do you have that feeling?"

Chen Shou suddenly spoke at this moment.

Seeing that Chen Shou also had that feeling, Si Jinyan became even more convinced that Young Master Yun's arrival might be related to this.

"You feel it too, don't you?"

"A sense of foreboding."

At this moment, Lu Yan and Bei Chen also looked up at the extremely overcast sky.

The sky, covered with dark clouds, made the sense of oppression and irritation in everyone's hearts grow, as if something was brewing.

*Crack!!!*

A bolt of lightning struck down, momentarily illuminating the clouds.

"Holy crap, what is that?"

Chen Shou was stunned by the scene.

"Someone, there's someone above the clouds."

Si Jinyan clenched his fists and said in a deep voice.

"It seems the times are about to change drastically."

"If there's chaos later, we'll directly rescue them and escape."

"Let's go together; we'll have each other's back."

"Mmm, alright."

Lu Yan and Bei Chen discussed cautiously. Both were individuals with protagonist's halos, and their premonitions were exceptionally strong.

Above the dark clouds resided a great terror.

"It seems I haven't arrived too late."

Zhao Yunhai, accompanied by A'Da, A'Er, A'San, Wuchen, Li Mingyi, and Wang Fan, appeared before them using spatial powers.

"Young Master Yun."

Si Jinyan bowed respectfully.

"It's dangerous here, be careful," Chen Shou warned him.

"These are the ones who attacked you, aren't they?"

Zhao Yunhai's gaze shifted from the eight women to Lu Yan and Bei Chen.

"Zhao Yunhai, you deserve to die."

Enemies meeting, their eyes burned with hatred. Lu Yan and Bei Chen were instantly consumed by it.

"Is that so?"

Zhao Yunhai chuckled and vanished from his spot.

Boom!!!

Zhao Yunhai appeared before Bei Chen and, before he could react, used his own strength to punch directly into his heart.

"Bei Chen."

Lu Yan reacted, his face a mask of horror, and immediately blew his flute.

"This is unpleasant."

After dealing with Bei Chen, Zhao Yunhai looked at Lu Yan blowing his flute, his eyes narrowed. The flute instantly appeared in his hand.

"My flute."

Lu Yan watched his flute disappear into the opponent's hand, his heart collapsing.

It was over.

Suddenly, a tune filled with slaughter and bloodlust began to play.

Ah!!!

Lu Yan desperately covered his ears, but the sound of the music had already penetrated his bones and soul.

Pain!!!

Ah!!!

Lu Yan's eyes turned crimson, as if possessed, only seeing eight monsters mocking him.

A surge of frustration washed over him. *Die, monsters.*

Ah!!!

To outsiders, Lu Yan's actions were undeniably bloody and terrifying.

Zhao Yunhai gradually stopped playing the tune.

"Sister."

Lu Yan looked at his sister, whom he had just killed with his own hands, clutched in his arms. His heart had already died.

Lu Yan slowly closed his eyes. He had committed suicide, biting off his tongue.

Having personally killed his closest kin, it was the most unbearable thing for Lu Yan.

Zhao Yunhai calmly put away his jade flute and said lightly, "Clean this up thoroughly. We have guests arriving."

With that, Zhao Yunhai looked towards the sky.

The scene of Lu Yan and Bei Chen being instantly annihilated was too shocking for everyone, especially Chen Shou and the group of vengeful spirits.

My goodness, *this* was true terror.

The ferocious vengeful spirits hiding behind Chen Shou trembled. At this moment, they felt that if Zhao Yunhai so much as glanced at them, they would be annihilated the next second.

"Lin clan, Lin Zongzhen, respectfully welcomes Young Master's awakening and has come to escort the Young Master home."

In the sky, everyone looked up. A powerful and terrifying figure leading a small team emerged from the clouds.

"They've arrived!"

"It seems it's time for me to return."

The Young Master of the Lin clan, who had been vacationing in the United States, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the sky, a glint in his eyes.

He then looked in Zhao Yunhai's direction.

It was just that before leaving, he had seen a very interesting mortal. If he were to commit murder, it would be best to die.

The Young Master of the Lin clan appeared above the clouds, and Lin Zongzhen knelt on one knee to respectfully welcome him.

"I'll go kill someone before I leave."

The Young Master of the Lin clan felt that this world had raised him for a lifetime. If he were to leave like this, no one would be able to stop this demon.

Zhao Yunhai suddenly frowned, gripped his sword, and vanished instantly, charging towards the sky.

The sword's hum caused the clouds to tremble.

"If I leave you, you will surely wreak havoc. Before I leave, I must do something for this world."

The Young Master of the Lin clan, seeing that the other party dared to attack him, let out a cold laugh and immediately made his move.

Zhao Yunhai snorted, and a golden light flashed in his mind. The Super Double template was activated once more.

The sword seemed to change its aura in an instant.

Zhao Yunhai sneered. It seemed his guess was correct.

The Young Master of the Lin clan, holding his sword, had no idea what kind of monster he was about to face.

Lin Zongzhen stood with his hands behind his back, watching quietly. Even if the Young Master destroyed this world, he would not object.

In his eyes, although this person's power surpassed this world, he was still no match for the Young Master.

The moment Zhao Yunhai engaged in combat, his aura erupted, becoming incomparably terrifying.

"Young Master, be careful."

Lin Zongzhen's expression changed drastically, and he quickly moved to help.

But it was too late.

Under the sword's gleam, the Young Master of the Lin clan was instantly killed, his blood turning into a rain of blood falling from the sky.

His corpse was directly collected by Zhao Yunhai.

This surprise attack instantly killed the opponent, which was the consequence of him underestimating Zhao Yunhai.

"You dare to kill the Young Master, my Lin clan will never forgive you."

Lin Zongzhen, unable to believe the Young Master was killed before his eyes, became enraged.

"Noisy."

Zhao Yunhai, having obtained the protagonist's power through Super Double, easily eliminated these people.

With a thunderous roar, a sky full of bloody rain.

Upon landing, Zhao Yunhai knew this world could no longer remain peaceful. The opposing forces would definitely come knocking.

Rather than wait for death, it was better to strike first.

Zhao Yunhai had already decided to launch a fierce offensive immediately upon returning, forcefully unifying the world with military might.

He looked at everyone with immense dominance.

"This world is no longer at peace. Gentlemen, are you willing to fight for me in all directions?"

"We are willing to follow Young Master Yun and conquer all directions."

Everyone, including protagonists like Wang Fan, knelt on one knee. The power shown just now, capable of instantly killing an immortal, had ignited their bloodlust.

At this moment, the blood rain finally began to drift down from the sky, falling on everyone.

"Let's go back. The time has come for my Zhao clan to unify the world."

Zhao Yunhai and the others vanished from their spots.
