Conspiracy

Lin Baichuan's mind raced with countless thoughts, and his gaze towards the strangely alluring youth, Yin Kuisheng, became fervent.

And at this moment!

Yin Kuisheng, facing the stares of everyone in the hall, showed no signs of panic. Instead, he let out a cold laugh. "Earth Spirit Milk... Heh, another group of greedy fools seeking death. If you want the treasure on me, come and take it yourself. Why all this pointless chatter..."

"Yin Kuisheng, it seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Do you think this is the Yin Demon Sect, where you can be protected?"

"That's right. If you refuse to hand over the Earth Spirit Milk, then leave your life behind!"

"Why waste so many words? Kill him, and the treasure goes to whoever is capable."

Someone in the hall roared angrily.

Clang!

The next moment, someone made the first move. Just as Yin Kuisheng finished speaking, a figure leaped down from the second floor like an arrow. His long sword let out a sharp cry as it plunged directly towards Yin Kuisheng's crown.

"Seeking death!"

Yin Kuisheng snorted coldly, his face filled with murderous intent. He raised his hand, and his seemingly fair and jade-like palm directly grabbed the long sword aimed at him. Sparks, like metal colliding, erupted from his palm.

With a clench of his hand, Yin Kuisheng crushed the long sword.

Then, Yin Kuisheng reached out with both hands, a ferocious killing intent appearing on his face. He forcefully tore the figure in half. Blood splattered everywhere, and a thick, bloody stench filled the entire inn's hall. At this moment, everyone was stunned, and many felt a chill run down their spines, instinctively retreating.

Their gazes towards Yin Kuisheng were now completely shrouded in terror.

Terrifying!

It was truly terrifying.

He had torn apart a Ninth Rank Skin Refinement Realm expert with his bare hands. This Yin Kuisheng was not human, but a devil.

"Hahaha... A mere nobody dares to covet the treasure on me. Who gave him the guts?"

Yin Kuisheng laughed wildly, as if driven mad.

"Yin Kuisheng, don't be too arrogant. Your strength is indeed good, but with so many of us here, do you think you can win?"

Someone, unable to stand Yin Kuisheng's arrogance, immediately berated him angrily.

"Everyone, this guy is so brutal. Why should we bother with righteousness? Let's all attack together and kill him first."

"That's right. If we attack together, I don't believe he can be an opponent to so many of us."

"Even if he's at the peak of the Seventh Rank Organ Forging Realm, he definitely won't be able to hold on under our combined assault. Let's just kill him."

"Kill..."

Everyone was shouting, and some had already made their move, charging directly at Yin Kuisheng. As soon as one person moved, many more followed. Out of the hundred or so people in the hall, at least two-thirds charged towards Yin Kuisheng.

With so many people attacking at once, including several Seventh Rank Organ Forging Realm experts, even Yin Kuisheng, no matter how powerful, couldn't resist alone.

Boom... Bang...

After only a few waves of attacks, he was forced into passive defense.

"Captain..."

Lin Baichuan and the others had already retreated to the side. Seeing Yin Kuisheng being completely suppressed and about to be overwhelmed, Niu Zhenye couldn't hold back. He looked at Li Da and said, "If we don't act soon, we'll lose our chance."

"Don't rush. Let's wait a bit longer!"

Li Da shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "This guy's strength is not bad. He won't be defeated that easily."

"This person's strength is good, but among his opponents, there are at least eight Seventh Rank Organ Forging Realm experts. He can't make any waves," Qin Qing suddenly interjected. "If we don't act now, and this person is killed, the Earth Spirit Milk will be beyond our reach. These people definitely won't allow us to be the fishermen who benefit from watching the fight."

"Kill..."

Suddenly, before Qin Qing could even finish speaking, several groups who had also retreated to the side to watch, just like them, made their move at the same time. With a loud shout, they charged directly at Yin Kuisheng.

In an instant, only the six members of the Demon Suppression Division remained standing in the hall.

"Captain..."

Niu Zhenye, seeing this, became even more anxious and looked at Li Da again.

"Act!"

Li Da gritted his teeth and growled in a low voice, "Form the battle formation, charge in, and take Yin Kuisheng directly."

"Yes!"

Niu Zhenye, Luo Kang, and Wu Xiaoqi were overjoyed. After shouting their assent, they drew their Battle Sabers from their waists and formed a battle formation with Li Da and Qin Qing. With Li Da as the tip of the spear, they charged directly towards the surrounded Yin Kuisheng.

As for Lin Baichuan, he was completely ignored at this moment.

This was because Lin Baichuan was a new addition and had never practiced battle formations with them, so he naturally didn't know how to form one. Moreover, Li Da and the other four had no intention of bringing Lin Baichuan along.

In other words, even if they truly obtained the Earth Spirit Milk later, they wouldn't share a single bit with Lin Baichuan.

Lin Baichuan inwardly cursed at the sight, his expression as dark as water.

He gritted his teeth, ready to draw his saber and charge forward, but just then, he suddenly noticed a strange green light appear in Yin Kuisheng's eyes. Yin Kuisheng's previously pale face now wore a sinister grin.

"Not good!"

Almost instinctively, Lin Baichuan retreated. He stomped his right foot on the ground, and like a roc spreading its wings, he smashed through the inn's window and flew out.

"You will all die!"

At this moment, Yin Kuisheng let out a sudden roar and swallowed a bead the size of a thumb, which emanated an astonishing demonic aura.

Roar, roar...

In the next moment, his entire body began to expand rapidly, like an inflated balloon. His face, which was already somewhat ethereally handsome, was now covered in grotesque, demonic patterns. The arms, which were as hard as iron, were instantly covered in scales as black as ink.

Billowing demonic energy surged, and his body grew to the size of ten feet. He transformed into a strange demon with legs, resembling a giant ox but covered in scales, and let out bloodthirsty roars at everyone who was attacking him.

"No good, damn it... He swallowed a Demon Core and has fully demonized."

"This isn't just any demonization. That's at least a demon's inner core from the Soldier-tier Fifth Rank or above. And he must have refined a wisp of demonic power long ago, preparing everything. He deliberately set a trap to lure us all here and capture us in one fell swoop."

"Stop his demonization, or we'll all die here."

Someone recognized Yin Kuisheng's method and their face changed drastically. They immediately roared and unleashed their full combat power, swinging their saber at Yin Kuisheng.

"A bunch of ants, you will all die today and become the blood food in my mouth!"

Yin Kuisheng, now transformed into a demon, roared. His eyes were blood-red, emitting a bloodthirsty glare. Seeing the saber slashing towards him, he swung his hammer-like large hand and fiercely struck the Battle Saber.

Bang... Crackle...

In a single exchange, the man's Battle Saber shattered.

Countless fragments flew out, more terrifying than arrows, instantly piercing through the bodies of over a dozen people.

"Ah..."

Screams echoed through the night sky. These people's bodies were pierced, and the powerful impact sent them flying over thirty feet, trailing wisps of crimson blood.

"Hahaha..."

Yin Kuisheng threw his head back and laughed wildly, his ferocious face becoming even more terrifying. He swung his hammer-like hands and charged into the crowd.
