One Person Is Enough

Lin Zhiluo only needed to focus his consciousness on the Zombie Cat.

He could then accurately determine the path the Zombie Cat had previously taken.

Now, Lin Zhiluo also understood exactly where the Li Family's secret passage was located.

He had to admit, they were quite clever.

The people who had run outside earlier were actually just there to distract Lin Zhiluo.

The Zombie Cat had originally chosen to track them, but it discovered that Li Haobo's scent was not among them.

So, it turned back around to follow Li Haobo instead.

In the end, the Zombie Cat discovered that Li Haobo and Steward Zhao were actually hiding in the basement of the villa.

Li Haobo had no idea that the Zombie Cat had already completely pinpointed their location.

He was still hoping that he wouldn't be discovered by Lin Zhiluo.

Lin Zhiluo did not go to find Li Haobo and Steward Zhao first.

For the time being, the Zombie Cat was watching them.

What he needed to do was to first take care of the remaining twenty or so people inside the secret passage.

Inside a safe room in the Li Family basement.

"Uncle Zhao, what do we do, what do we do!" Li Haobo said, panicked.

One could even smell a pungent stench coming from him.

It seemed that our young master of the Li Family had long since been scared into incontinence.

"Young Master, don't panic yet. Rong Zhan and his Hunting Mercenary Group are fully capable of holding off that killer, not to mention we arranged for others to go into the secret passage. He won't think we are here," Steward Zhao comforted him.

Although he said that.

In his heart, he was still very uneasy.

Could things really end so simply?

Would this mysterious person who could fight his way into the Li Family manor really be fooled by such small tricks?

"It must be someone Lin Zhiluo hired! It has to be him! First, he had someone kill Yao Jinghan, and now he's coming to kill me." Li Haobo insisted that it was a killer hired by Lin Zhiluo.

"I just don't know how he knew this information in advance, and I don't know where he found such a strong killer!" Li Haobo gritted his teeth.

"Could it be some contingency plan that Lin Jian left for Lin Zhiluo?" Steward Zhao raised the question.

"Impossible, impossible. When we killed Lin Jian, our Li Family pulled up the roots of their entire Lin Family. It's impossible for Lin Jian to have left any contingency plans."

"If it weren't for that superior insisting that we leave one bloodline of the Lin Family alive, that guy Lin Zhiluo should have died long ago!"

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have used that bitch Yao Jinghan to make Lin Zhiluo heartbroken; I would have sent someone to kill him long ago," Li Haobo continued.

This was truly unexpected.

Lin Zhiluo had always thought that he was targeted by the Li Family because he had caused Li Haobo and Yao Jinghan to lose face.

Then, as the conflict grew, people from the Li Family kept coming to hunt him down.

Little did he know, all of this was orchestrated by Li Haobo.

Including Yao Jinghan dating Lin Zhiluo.

Including later making Yao Jinghan cheat.

The ultimate goal was to strike at Lin Zhiluo on a psychological level.

To make Lin Zhiluo's mind completely collapse.

"So that's how it is."

Lin Zhiluo's voice suddenly rang out from outside the metal door of the safe room.

"Lin Zhiluo, that's right, that's Lin Zhiluo's voice!" Li Haobo screamed.

"So I had been targeted by you for a long time. And it turns out there are so many stories about me," Lin Zhiluo's voice continued.

"Lin Zhiluo, let me tell you, you should have died by my hands; I should have just arranged for someone to kill you back then." Li Haobo was terrified; he could only use threats to dispel his fear.

The metal door of the safe room was emitting a teeth-grinding sound of being pried open.

It seemed that Lin Zhiluo was outside trying to force the door open.

"I am quite curious, who is Lin Jian? And what is this situation you mentioned about the Li Family pulling the Lin Family up by the roots?" Lin Zhiluo asked in a calm tone while prying at the iron door.

"Hahahaha! You orphan, you don't even know what your own father's name is! You deserve this!"

"Back then, Lin Jian insisted on reporting my father just as he was about to be promoted!"

"It caused our Li Family's years of planning to be disrupted. Just for that, your entire Lin Family deserved to die!"

"You should be grateful that you are the only bastard of the Lin Family who survived!"

"I'm just curious, where did you find a helper willing to help you? Otherwise, with just you, I could have sent any bodyguard to kill you."

Listening to the chiseling sounds outside the door, Li Haobo grew increasingly panicked.

He could only continue to curse and shout at the top of his lungs to vent the fear building up inside him.

Furthermore, he remained convinced that Lin Zhiluo had found himself an accomplice.

"The things you're saying are actually useless, because regardless of whether you speak or not, I will make your Li Family, the entire clan, vanish into dust," Lin Zhiluo said calmly.

Just moments ago, Lin Zhiluo had merely asked about the sequence of events on a whim.

In reality, he no longer cared about the actual sequence of events.

Just as he had said, regardless of how he became an orphan, and regardless of whether his parents were truly killed by the Li Family.

These things were no longer important.

His personal blood feud with the Li Family was more than enough.

Who would have known.

The moment Lin Zhiluo finished that sentence.

Li Haobo burst into laughter, and even Steward Zhao, who had been staying by Li Haobo's side the entire time, wore a look of disdain.

What a laughable statement.

Lin Zhiluo, all by himself, actually wanted to topple the Li Family.

This behemoth that had been entrenched in the Dragon Kingdom for over a thousand years.

Just because of that helper he found from who knows where?

Look at them; even though Li Haobo and Steward Zhao knew they were about to die.

They didn't believe for a single second that Lin Zhiluo had even the slightest possibility of destroying the Li Family.

It was at this very moment.

The metal door of the safe room finally groaned under the unbearable pressure.

Following that, the metal door was slowly pulled open by Lin Zhiluo.

Steward Zhao moved.

He had been waiting for this exact moment when Lin Zhiluo opened the door.

The instant the metal door was pulled, Steward Zhao shot forward like an arrow released from a bow, rushing toward the metal door at a speed the naked eye could barely track.

With this kind of speed, one could never tell that Steward Zhao was a man in his sixties or seventies.

Moreover, as he ran, his hands began to glow with ripples of golden light.

However, Lin Zhiluo had long since guarded against this move.

Watching Steward Zhao charge toward him, he remained completely unfazed.

A Zombie Cat the size of a cheetah suddenly lunged out from behind Lin Zhiluo.

It then used its own body to block Steward Zhao's fully charged punch.

After taking the hit from Steward Zhao, the Zombie Cat dissipated directly into thin air.

Steward Zhao was stunned, unable to figure out exactly what had just happened.

In truth, it was because the Zombie Cat's 30-minute summoning duration had expired.

Sticking to his principle of not wasting resources, Lin Zhiluo had let the Zombie Cat take the hit right as the timer ran out.

By now, the metal door had been pried open by Lin Zhiluo just enough for one person to pass through.

He stepped decisively into the room and stood before Steward Zhao.

Steward Zhao snapped out of his momentary confusion.

He looked at the masked man in front of him and compared him to Lin Zhiluo.

He discovered that the build and physical characteristics were identical.

Steward Zhao exclaimed in shock: "You are Lin Zhiluo! The previous assassin was you! From start to finish, it was just you alone!"

Li Haobo, hiding in the corner, stopped trembling and spoke in disbelief: "Impossible, it couldn't have been just him alone. How could Lin Zhiluo have become this strong!"

"One person is more than enough."
