Beast! There's Still a Master?

Although he couldn't understand it, Lin Chen was certain of one thing: Zheng Peng was definitely an Evil Cultivator!

What is an Evil Cultivator?

They are the Origin!

"He's here!"

At that moment, Tang Jiajia's face showed terror, and simultaneously, the sound of faint footsteps could be heard.

"I didn't expect anyone to find this place!"

A sudden voice came from behind Lin Chen, and immediately after, a young man who looked sunny and handsome appeared in Lin Chen's sight.

"Zheng Peng?" Lin Chen looked at the person who arrived.

"That's right!" Zheng Peng nodded slightly, then looked at Lin Chen and said, "Being able to talk to Ghosts means you are also a Cultivator, but that doesn't matter anymore. Since you've discovered my secret, you can only die!"

"You want to kill me?" Lin Chen smiled. He hadn't gone to find Zheng Peng, but the other party had delivered himself to his doorstep.

"What do you think?"

Zheng Peng sneered. Tang Jiajia's matter absolutely could not be exposed, otherwise, if the Demon Suppression Division was alerted, he would only have a dead end.

"Wait a moment."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Peng was about to make a move, but at this moment, Lin Chen suddenly spoke.

"It's too late to beg for mercy now!" Zheng Peng scoffed.

Lin Chen looked at Zheng Peng and asked curiously, "I just want to know why you killed Tang Jiajia. She was your girlfriend, and she was even carrying your child."

"Girlfriend?"

Zheng Peng laughed, looking at Lin Chen and Tang Jiajia, and said calmly, "From the very beginning, I planned to refine her into a Ghost. Her pregnancy was just one part of it."

"You're not from the Ghost Raising lineage, so you don't know that the Nine Sons Ghost Mother is a top-tier Ghost. Mother and child are connected by heart, and their resentment is boundless," Zheng Peng said, his voice filled with excitement. "Only Ghosts refined in this way can grow to their limit and help me advance further!"

"Beast!"

Lin Chen's expression darkened. He hadn't expected that the other party had been deceiving Tang Jiajia from the start. Getting her pregnant was just a step in his plan to refine the Nine Sons Ghost Mother.

"Curse me, curse me! When I refine you into a Ghost, I'll make you kill the person you cherish with your own hands. Let's see how you curse then!" Zheng Peng laughed heartily, his body moved, and he instantly appeared before Lin Chen. His already prepared palm struck towards Lin Chen's chest.

Bang~

Before Zheng Peng's attack could land, a muffled sound was heard. His body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily against the sewer wall.

Gasp~

A mouthful of bright red blood spurted from Zheng Peng's mouth. He looked at Lin Chen with disbelief, "Your strength... how is that possible!"

Zheng Peng clearly hadn't expected Lin Chen's strength to be even greater than his. He was a late-stage second-tier Cultivator. Such cultivation was already considered outstanding among his peers, yet he was heavily injured by a single punch from Lin Chen. Just how high was Lin Chen's cultivation?

"You know nothing about true power!"

Lin Chen sneered and was about to step forward to finish Zheng Peng when Tang Jiajia, who was behind him, suddenly spoke, "Handsome guy, save me! If you kill him directly, I'll die too!"

Hearing this, Lin Chen was stunned. At that moment, Tang Jiajia's figure flashed, and she instantly appeared in front of Lin Chen, enveloped in terrifying ghostly energy, her claws slashing towards Lin Chen's throat.

"You are already dead!"

Looking at the attacking Tang Jiajia, Lin Chen sighed. He activated his Blood Qi True Flame and punched Tang Jiajia, the terrifying Blood Qi True Flame directly engulfing her figure.

Whoosh~

Just as Tang Jiajia turned to ashes, a sharp whistling sound cut through the air. The heavily injured Zheng Peng, taking advantage of Tang Jiajia's attack, had launched a sneak attack on Lin Chen.

Lin Chen grabbed Zheng Peng's attacking right arm and twisted it with all his might. A cracking sound followed, and Zheng Peng's right arm became twisted like a corkscrew.

"Ah~"

A piercing scream came from Zheng Peng's mouth. Before he could recover, Zheng Peng felt his left arm and both legs being struck heavily in succession. He fell directly to the ground, writhing and twitching in pain.

"Now you know pain?"

Looking at the painfully howling Zheng Peng, Lin Chen felt no sympathy. A young girl was killed by this beast before him, unable to rest even in death. Killing him directly would be too easy for him.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Lin Chen had not used his Blood Qi True Flame against Zheng Peng, not wanting him to die so easily!

Zheng Peng endured the intense pain and spoke with difficulty, "You can't kill me! If you kill me, my master won't let you go!"

Master?

At these words, Lin Chen's eyes lit up. That's right, Zheng Peng was just a college student. Without guidance, how could he understand such profound Ghost Raising techniques?

Most importantly, someone who could teach such a disciple and such Ghost Raising techniques was likely not a good person!

An Evil Cultivator, and one with a master!

The Origin, a whole lot of Origin!

"Master? I'd like to see who your master is!" Lin Chen sneered, looking at Zheng Peng on the ground and said, "Call your master now!"

Zheng Peng was stunned. He hadn't expected that invoking his master's name would actually awe the other party. But how could he make a call now? His limbs had already been crippled by Lin Chen.

"Almost forgot, you can't move right now."

Looking at Zheng Peng's helpless appearance, Lin Chen finally came to his senses. The other party couldn't move at all. So, he took out Zheng Peng's phone. However, the moment he touched it, Zheng Peng's teeth clenched in pain, but he dared not cry out.

Seeing a glimmer of hope for survival, he didn't want to anger Lin Chen and provoke him into killing intent.

After unlocking his face, Lin Chen made a call. Zheng Peng, lying on the ground, hurriedly spoke, "Master, save me! I've been captured, and he's going to kill me!"

"Who are you? Why have you captured my disciple?" a deep voice came from the phone.

"Your disciple was blind and provoked me!" Lin Chen sneered coldly, then continued, "If you want his life, get to the woods outside the north gate of Qingzhou University in half an hour, or you can prepare to collect his corpse!"

"Please don't be rash. If my disciple has offended you, I will definitely bring him to apologize." The deep voice came from the phone again.

Lin Chen hung up the phone directly. The other party was just being polite, only worried about Zheng Peng's life. As for apologizing, once they met, he would probably wish he could tear Lin Chen to shreds.

Lin Chen grabbed Zheng Peng and hurried towards the woods outside the north gate. After a moment, he arrived in the woods and waited quietly. After about twenty minutes of waiting, a faint sound of footsteps could be heard.

"They're here?"

Lin Chen looked in the direction of the footsteps. A figure was slowly approaching. Zheng Peng, seeing this, immediately shouted, "Master, save me! He broke all four of my limbs. I want him crippled, unable to live and unable to die!"

"Shut up!"

A cold shout came, and then a figure appeared in front of Lin Chen. It was a middle-aged man in a gray robe.
