Rest Easy, People Don't Die
"—How should I address you?"
Ah, just like that, the pillow arrived.
That's great! If we take care of her now, Otto will have one less trump card in his hand.
But before that... let's find out her purpose first.
If it's not necessary, there's no need to just kill this guy.
"I am a disciple of the Crimson Heron Immortal. You can call me Martial Uncle."
Looking at Li Sushang, whose face was full of confusion and even a little resentment, Lin Yu asked her calmly.
"Nephew Su Shang, your rude intrusion into this place has disturbed my and my companions' peaceful cultivation."
"If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I, your Martial Uncle, will really get angry."
.
Chapter 278. Don't worry, no one will die.
Looking at the two girls with unfriendly expressions and Lin Yu with a calm demeanor, Li Sushang didn't think the three of them were gathered here for some kind of 'seclusion,' but she had to objectively admit that it was indeed wrong of her to inexplicably run over and smash the door.
As she thought about it, the girl's apologetic expression deepened.
"Although it was due to an emergency, I... did overstep my bounds."
"If I have offended you, please forgive me, Martial Uncle. Moreover..."
Looking at Lin Yu in front of her, Li Sushang suddenly said with a slightly aggrieved expression.
"I came to see my Martial Uncle, but I just want to ask to see my grandmaster once."
"Since Grand Master was able to teach Brother Li and the others sword energy and carry out other operations, his injuries must have completely healed."
"I just want to see her and ask her some questions in person. Is that too much to ask?"
"Otherwise what?"
Looking at the slightly aggrieved girl in front of him, Lin Yu's calm face turned cold.
"Although your mother did wrong because of the instigation of a traitor, betraying your mentor and assassinating her is undoubtedly a serious crime."
"Perhaps Master and you have indeed severed all ties after your battle five hundred years ago, but that doesn't mean that Wendy and I, as her disciples, would be completely indifferent to what happened in the past, just like Master."
"Besides, in my opinion now, even without past grievances, you are not qualified to meet with Master."
"After all..."
"Given Master's murderous intent towards Otto, the fact that she didn't take her anger out on you is already a sign of leniency."
Hearing the words of this young senior Martial Uncle, Li Sushang couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, it was because of what the Rosharian had done before.
How many bad things has he done that everyone I meet who knows even a little bit of information about him is going to hurl insults at him?
In fact, by now, Li Sushang's confusion had almost completely disappeared.
When good people, bad people, allies, and enemies all say that Otto is not a good person, then in that situation, he is basically impossible to be a good person.
Even without confronting Otto directly, Li Sushang probably already knows the true answer to the question in her heart.
But... she still felt a little uncomfortable.
There were some things she wouldn't be satisfied with if she hadn't heard them from her Ancestor Chiyuan.
Those who practice martial arts value a clear and unobstructed mind. However, the female warrior Li Sushang, who is currently trapped by a single thought, feels that if she doesn't thoroughly understand what Otto did in the past, she might Entering Demonic State in the future.
"However, seeing how sincere you are, I might as well give you a chance."
At this moment, Lin Yu took out the Tai Xu Grip, transformed it into the Xuanyuan Sword, and suddenly pointed the sword at the martial artist in front of him.
"After you fight me once, I will consider whether to recommend you to my master."
"Of course, if you can beat me, I will take you to Tai Xu Mountain right now and let Master answer your questions."
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, a glint of light appeared in Li Sushang's eyes.
"Martial Uncle, is this really true?"
"Nature."
Seeing Li Sushang's eagerness, Mei and Yuno, who initially disliked her for interrupting their gathering, suddenly felt sorry for the girl in front of them.
Well, judging from the conversation between Lin Yu and Li Sushang just now, this woman who looks very young doesn't seem to be very young in actual age.
However, judging from the other party's words and actions, neither of them felt that this person was some mature old monster.
No matter how you look at it, they can only regard Li Sushang as a naive young girl.
As for Li Pu, who was behind Li Sushang, he had already taken out his communicator and was preparing to call the Tai Xu Sword Sect's special ambulance to the scene.
During her time in Shenzhou, Li Sushang helped the Tai Xu Sword Sect a great deal.
Even knowing that Crimson Heron Immortal disliked this grand-disciple, it was an undeniable fact that the Tai Xu Sword Sect had received a favor from him.
Sigh, a one-on-one battle with the strongest knight, and it seems like Lord Lin Yu isn't planning to hold back.
"Brother Li, there's no need to panic."
Seeing the barely concealed panic on Li Pu's face, Lin Yu smiled and said to Li Pu.
"Don't worry, no one will die. You don't need to call medical staff."
"That being said, but..."
After glancing at Yuno beside Lin Yu, Li Pu immediately hung up the call.
Forget it, the Herrscher of Death is here. If Lord Lin Yu really didn't intend to kill anyone, then rescuing this lady would be a piece of cake.
If he intended to kill someone—what could be done? We could only blame this old lady for being blind.
Although in the Shenzhou, the title of Immortal far surpasses that of Lord Lin Yu, in terms of actual battle record, Lord Lin Yu's record is significantly better than that of Immortal.
Sigh, a humanoid monster that can cut down Herrscher and end the Honkai in minutes, facing someone like this...
How many moves can Su Shang Chang withstand?
A few minutes later, at the Tai Xu Sword Sect's martial arts arena...
Li Sushang, who was teleported to this place by Lin Yu using the Quantum Teleportation System, truly felt that the technology of five hundred years later was much more convenient.
She originally thought that the teleportation technology that the World Serpent used on her was something that only a few people in the world could master.
But now it seems that the technology that the World Serpent used on her back then wasn't so precious.
Putting everything else aside, her Martial Uncle clearly also possessed this skill, and seemed to use it quite proficiently.
Li Pu simply gave her coordinates, and her Martial Uncle instantly teleported everyone to the arena.
As for the others present, apart from Lin Yu who was holding the Xuanyuan Sword, the other three silently retreated to the side.
Looking at the girl eager to try her hand in the fighting arena, Li Pu really felt that the more excited Li Sushang was now, the worse her mood would be when she was beaten up later.
Sigh, this young lady has no idea what kind of future she will face.
Why choose the strongest person in the world to challenge? Isn't that just asking for a beating?
"Then, Martial Uncle —can we begin now?"
"Nature."
Looking at the young man in front of her, Li Sushang took a deep breath of fresh air and then suddenly began to frantically condense Honkai energy into her palm.
Faced with this level of Honkai Energy, Li Pu, the weakest of the five people present, immediately changed his expression.
Oh no, something terrible has happened.
This level of Honkai Energy...
—Why did you throw out Sword God right from the start?!
Sigh, if we really get into a fight and anger Lord Lin Yu, then...
—If you keep courting death like this, and you really get beaten to death, there's really nothing I can do to save you.
Before her duel with Lin Yu, Li Sushang was not as confident and calm as she appeared.
Putting aside whether she's smart or not, Li Sushang is undeniably a genius martial artist.
A genius martial artist can judge the strength of an opponent simply by sensing the true energy emanating from them.
When Li Sushang was talking to Lin Yu earlier, she felt as if the man in front of her was a mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe, just by sensing the true energy constantly emanating from Lin Yu.
My Martial Uncle is very strong, so strong that if we were to have a one-on-one duel, my chances of defeating him would be practically nonexistent.
Therefore, I don't need to try to test the waters with conventional fighting techniques; I can just go straight for my ultimate move!
"The Divine the ultimate in transformation, the wondrous being that encompasses all things, and cannot be questioned by form."
After uttering this mantra, which sounded like a self-suggestion, a phoenix emblem formed from Honkai Energy appeared behind Li Sushang.
Looking at his junior apprentice, Lin Yu was not surprised by the decision she made.
Although using the "Sword God" move right from the start is like a finishing move, it is easy for the enemy to interrupt the casting process, resulting in the user suffering negative effects after failing to use this move.
However, for Li Sushang, using her ultimate move to severely injure Lin Yu right from the start was indeed the best tactic for her.
Unfortunately, no matter how good the tactics are, they are useless in the face of an absolute difference in strength.
If they were to fight seriously, Lin Yu could activate the Constraint Barrier and then cover himself with the Phantasm Lantern Barrier, thus erasing the Sword God's destructive power at both the Honkai Energy and mental levels.
But if you use this tactic, your opponent probably won't be convinced.
Although our combat strength is now much stronger than it was in 2014 in the original work, having an extra powerful fighter is always a good thing in order to fight against the Honkai.
Therefore, Lin Yu not only had to win, but also had to win in a way that would convince Li Sushang.
Therefore...
—Since you like the Sword God so much, then I'll use the Sword God to retaliate.
Seeing the phoenix emblem appear behind the other party, Lin Yu also floated into the air and concentrated his Honkai Energy on the Xuanyuan Sword in his right hand.
"The Divine the ultimate in transformation, the wondrous being that encompasses all things, and cannot be questioned by form."
He was chanting the exact same incantation as Li Sushang, but at this moment, Lin Yu gave everyone a completely different feeling than Li Sushang.
Unlike the righteous Li Sushang, Lin Yu, who had secretly activated [Lord of Fear] to amplify his strength, clearly gave everyone the feeling of an evil aura emanating from him.
Not only that, even the emblem that would appear behind him when he cast the Tai Xu Sword God had changed from a phoenix that was leaning towards the front to a bat that clearly didn't look like a good thing.
"Martial Uncle, you'd better be careful with this sword strike!"
"Oh, same to you."
In the next instant, the two simultaneously unleashed their attacks on their opponent.
"The Sword of the Void - Divine Essence!"
"Spell Lantern - Sword God!"
As the two finished their attacks, the sword energy they released transformed into two giant swords in mid-air, colliding instantly.
However, although Li Sushang used her strongest move with all her might, she could not help but show a look of fear on her face after seeing the giant sword she had conjured being easily shattered by Lin Yu's move.
She was going to lose—she had already mentally prepared herself for it.
However, in Li Sushang's opinion, even if she were to lose, she shouldn't lose so miserably.
However, the cruel reality before her eyes told Li Sushang that after both sides unleashed their swords, her swords were not even able to withstand the opponent's swords.
The giant sword, which had been cracked by Li Sushang, flew directly toward the exhausted Li Sushang and pierced her body.
The next moment, Li Sushang, who had been pierced by the giant sword, did not feel any pain.
But at the same time, everything in front of her changed.
After Li Sushang regained her consciousness, she suddenly found herself in an unfamiliar place.
