How Can People Be So Shameless?
Chapter 158 How can a person be so shameless?
"Bang bang bang"
After repeatedly ramming its own soul against the soul light wall set up by Xiao Lin two or three more times, and finding that not only could it not break through, but its soul became even weaker, Mystic Serpent finally remembered to run away.
However, by this point, what chance did he have of escaping?
Just then, Xiao Lin, who had emerged from the shadows, reached out and grabbed the Mystic Serpent's soul as it prepared to flee.
Looking at the Mystic Serpent's soul, which was still desperately trying to open its eyes in his hand, Xiao Lin couldn't help but shake his head.
"Don't waste your energy. Once you're in my hands, do you think you'll have any chance of escape?"
Xiao Lin spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Ah, it's you, Lin Xiao! What do you want? Do you want to start a war between your Jia Nan Academy and our Heavenly Serpent Empire?"
As Xiao Lin finished speaking, the Mystic Serpent's soul finally realized who the newcomer was.
However, it was precisely because he discovered who Xiao Lin was that the Mystic Serpent's face showed even greater fear.
After all, in his eyes, Xiao Lin was already Eight-Star Dou Zong powerhouse before he drank the semi-finished Crimson Flame Immortal Spirit Liquid!
Even if he faced him head-on, he wouldn't stand a chance, let alone now that he was just a soul.
But didn't Lin Xiao go to the Heavenly Water Cold Pool with the other Dou Zong?
Why would it appear in the Imperial Palace?
Also, why would the other party want to kill you?
Countless questions flooded the Mystic Serpent's mind at this moment.
"Ha, Mystic Serpent, aren't you overestimating yourself? If your emperor found out about what you did today, do you think you'd have a good end?"
Xiao Lin asked in return with a half-smile.
As expected, Xiao Lin's question left the Mystic Serpent's soul speechless.
That's right, if this matter gets out today, the Imperial Family will absolutely not let him off the hook!
Therefore, his statement just now was nothing more than empty talk.
"Hmph~, Lin Xiao, just tell me, what exactly do you want? When did Jia Nan Academy start to prefer sneaking around and resorting to underhanded tricks?"
After calming down, the Mystic Serpent tried desperately to find a way to survive.
Because he knew that, given the current situation, his life and death were no longer in his own hands.
"Don't be so rude. I was just plotting against the Jia Nan Academy on behalf of your Imperial Family, just to get some reward."
Xiao Lin still smiled easily.
The situation is under control, so there's no need for him to be in a hurry.
"Hmm~"
However, Xiao Lin's words once again left Mystic Serpent speechless.
It was his own careless promises that caused the other person to feel resentful!
Who can he complain to?
His original plan was to make a random promise to the Jia Nan Academy, lure people over, and then run away with the Cultivation Method and Dou Technique there.
As for what happened afterward, that was a matter for the Imperial Family and had nothing to do with him anymore.
Who would have thought that the promise I made so casually would end up getting me into trouble?
If he had known this would happen, he would have been more careful and not made those promises in the first place.
However, it's too late now.
It can only be said that retribution is inevitable, it's just that the time hasn't come yet!
And so, retribution fell upon the Mystic Serpent itself.
At this moment, Mystic Serpent, having learned that the cause of all this was the promise he had casually made back then, was so frustrated he felt like vomiting blood.
But now, he simply cannot say any of this out loud.
After all, if he were to reveal the truth, he would probably have his soul exterminated instantly.
Therefore, he had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill himself.
"What, have nothing more to say?"
However, Xiao Lin, unaware that Mystic Serpent was behind all of this, continued to hurl soul-searching questions at his heart.
"Alright, in this matter, it is indeed our Imperial Family that is in the wrong, and we can let it go, but you—"
"No, can you still represent the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family?"
Before Mystic Serpent She could finish speaking, Xiao Lin interrupted her prematurely.
As Xiao Lin finished speaking, Mystic Serpent was speechless once again, unsure of what to say.
But what could he do?
The current Mystic Serpent is caught in a bind, caught between a rock and a hard place.
He wanted to represent the Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family, but his actions had all been seen by Xiao Lin, so naturally he could not gain Xiao Lin's trust.
But if he were representing himself, then Xiao Lin would have even less to worry about.
All I can say is that if the soul could shed tears, the Mystic Serpent would already be crying right now.
He simply couldn't explain himself anymore!
"Speechless now? Then you can set off."
Looking at the silent Mystic Serpent soul, Xiao Lin slightly increased the pressure on his hand.
Instantly, the Mystic Serpent's soul felt a powerful squeezing force.
If this force continues to increase, the Mystic Serpent has no doubt that its soul will be crushed instantly!
Actually, only Xiao Lin doesn't have the methods of the Hun Clan.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a big deal to devour the Mystic Serpent's soul on the spot!
After all, the Soul Power is the purest.
Although the Mystic Serpent's Soul Power was only at the Advanced Mortal Realm, it was indeed a valuable tonic.
As you can see from the Original Work, even though Yun Shan only broke through to the Dou Zong with the help of the Soul Hall, his soul was still taken away by Wu Protector in the end.
Now, the soul of the Mystic Serpent is even stronger than that of Yun Shan in the Original Work story.
Therefore, his soul is naturally of some use to the Hun Clan.
Unfortunately, although Xiao Lin possessed the Heavenly Realm Soul Power, his application of that Soul Power was purely brute force, lacking any skill whatsoever.
As for Soul Dou Technique, he hadn't mastered a single one.
Therefore, if Xiao Lin really forcibly devours the Mystic Serpent's soul, his own soul might suffer problems in the future.
Therefore, he naturally wouldn't do something so risky.
Even though it's a bit of a pity, destroying the Mystic Serpent's soul is the best choice for Xiao Lin right now.
"No, wait, Lin Xiao, if you let me go, everything here is yours!"
Now that things have come to this, begging for mercy is the only option left for the Mystic Serpent.
However, Xiao Lin's right hand, which was gripping the Mystic Serpent's soul, continued to increase its pressure, showing no intention of loosening its grip.
"What are you talking about? Are you getting senile? These things here were originally mine, weren't they?"
Xiao Lin uttered words that made Mystic Serpent almost vomit blood, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
How can a person be so shameless?
"Besides, killing you will not only prevent the news from leaking out, but also make you take the blame for me. After all, only members of your Heavenly Serpent Imperial Family are allowed to enter here!"
Finally, with a wicked grin, Xiao Lin delivered another sentence to Mystic Serpent that plunged him into despair.
