"Cough, cough, Sister Tian Yan, listen to my explanation."
"Sister Tian Yan, I came here this time—"
An awkward look appeared on Jiang Lin's face. He had originally brought Tian Yan here to settle things with Suke, but who could have expected to catch him doing something like this?
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be so young yet have such filthy thoughts!"
Tian Yan directly cut Jiang Lin off, a trace of disgust appearing in her eyes.
[Ding!] [The host's actions have provoked Tian Yan's disgust. Favorability -3. Current favorability: 37.]
Damn it, I really took a huge loss this time.
Hearing the system prompt, Jiang Lin felt like crying without tears.
"Ah—"
With a sigh, Jiang Lin shook his head. He no longer felt like explaining himself. His hand closed around empty air, and the King's Power Sword appeared in his palm before he walked toward the guard room.
"That sword—"
Tian Yan, who stood where she was, frowned slightly. From the King's Power Sword, she sensed an aura of destruction that seemed capable of annihilating everything.
"Looks like this kid's identity isn't so simple."
Tian Yan murmured softly as she silently watched Jiang Lin enter the guard room.
"You two are certainly in high spirits. Aren't you afraid someone else might see you?"
"Or do you have some special fetish?"
Since the guard room door was not locked, Jiang Lin simply gave it a light pull and walked in.
Perhaps the two were too absorbed in what they were doing, because they did not notice Jiang Lin at first. Only when he suddenly spoke did they react.
"Y-you're Jiang Lin!"
Suke's eyes instantly widened, and the thing beneath him immediately went limp, losing all vigor.
"Hehe, why are you so worked up? Well, there you go. It's completely gone soft now."
With a smile on his face, Jiang Lin walked over to the bed and saw the woman named Masina.
"Whoa—"
"Suke, I never knew your tastes were this unique."
The moment Jiang Lin saw the woman's appearance, he was stunned. Her figure was truly astonishing; she weighed at least four or five hundred pounds by rough estimate, and her face was covered in fat. Calling her a tyrannosaurus would not have been an exaggeration!
"You little brat, who are you? What are you doing here?"
Masina frowned, shoved Suke aside, and sat up from the bed.
"Masina, this brat is the one who broke my leg during the day! You have to avenge me!"
Although Suke did not know why Jiang Lin had found him again, with Soul Master Masina by his side, he was no longer afraid of Jiang Lin.
"Hmph, what a useless piece of trash. You can't even handle a little brat!"
A sneer immediately appeared on Masina's face. Just as she was about to make a move, her gaze swept across Jiang Lin's face and suddenly stopped. Her voice turned suggestive.
"Little brother, you really do have such a pretty face. Judging by how you look now, you must be here to cause trouble for that useless Suke, right? How about this? I'll deal with him for you, as long as you spend one night with me afterward."
"Don't worry. Big sister will definitely cherish you."
"Masina, you!"
Suke was instantly shocked, his face full of disbelief. Just as he was about to say something else, Masina slapped him away.
"Little brother, what do you say? Think it over. Big sister, I—"
As she spoke, Masina's fleshy hand reached for Jiang Lin's face.
"Hiss!"
Hearing Masina's words, Jiang Lin felt a chill run through him, while his stomach churned.
"You dead fat pig, what the hell are you dreaming about!"
Jiang Lin could no longer endure it. The King's Power Sword in his hand slashed directly at Masina.
"Hmph, brat, you really refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!"
Since no Soul Rings were visible on Jiang Lin, Masina did not take him seriously at all. She did not even summon her Martial Soul, merely raising a huge hand to slap Jiang Lin.
The next moment, blood sprayed everywhere, a severed hand flew through the air, and a pig-like scream rang out in the cramped guard room.
"H-how is that possible? You're not even a Soul Master!"
Masina's face was filled with terror and disbelief.
Jiang Lin had no interest in answering her. With a single slash, he severed her neck.
Her head rolled across the floor before finally coming to rest beside Suke's hand.
"M-Masina is dead!"
Suke stared at that face, its eyes still wide open in death, unable to accept it for a moment.
"Suke, Suke. I already let you go once before, yet you still dared to send someone after me. Tell me, how do you want to die now?"
"As your final wish, I can still grant you such a small request."
Walking up to Suke, Jiang Lin wore a teasing smile.
"No, please! Jiang Lin, please spare me! I know I was wrong! I'll never cause trouble for you again! Please, be the bigger person and let me go this once!"
Hearing Jiang Lin's words, Suke instantly came back to his senses and dropped to his knees to beg for mercy.
"Heh, you know you were wrong now? Too late!"
Jiang Lin stepped on Suke's head, exerted force, and ground his face viciously into the floor.
"Originally, during the day, I only wanted to break one of your legs and teach you a lesson. But now, you won't be getting off that easily."
"J-Jiang Lin, p-please—"
As the terror of death descended, Suke's eyes filled with regret. He wanted to beg for mercy, but with his entire face pressed into the ground beneath Jiang Lin's foot, he could not even speak a full sentence.
"Since you won't say anything, then I'll decide how you die."
Jiang Lin smiled faintly, then the King's Power Sword in his hand instantly unleashed three streaks of sword qi.
The next moment, two severed hands and one severed leg flew up before landing directly in front of Suke.
"Ah!"
"M-my hands and foot—"
Suke's eyes immediately filled with despair and terror, his face turning deathly pale.
"Don't panic. That alone won't kill you."
Thinking of the three points of favorability Tian Yan had lost earlier, the coldness in Jiang Lin's eyes deepened. He then directly cut off Suke's third leg as well.
"No!"
Extreme pain flooded his mind, and Suke passed out from the agony.
Jiang Lin responded by giving him a fierce kick, waking him straight up.
"Suke, do you want to live or die?"
"Live! I want to live! Please, Jiang Lin, I want to live!"
A glimmer of hope instantly appeared in Suke's eyes, and he hurriedly pleaded loudly.
"Oh, you want to live? I'm in a pretty good mood right now. As long as you eat this thing, I'll let you go. Hahaha, how about it? Aren't I generous?"
Jiang Lin used his sword to pick up the thing he had just cut off and held it before Suke.
"Bleurgh—"
"Y-you—"
"Pfft!"
Suke's expression changed drastically, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of thick blood.
Fortunately, Jiang Lin dodged quickly enough. Otherwise, he would really have been contaminated by it.
"It seems you aren't very appreciative."
"Ah, and here I was, showing kindness for once with great difficulty."
There was a look of regret on Jiang Lin's face, but the smile at the corner of his lips could not be suppressed.
"Devil! Jiang Lin, you're a devil!"
Suke's face was filled with terror and madness. Under boundless pain and despair, he had completely lost his sanity.
"Heh, how boring. I was planning to play with you a little longer."
Seeing Suke in such a miserable state, Jiang Lin lost any desire to torment him further and ended his suffering with a single slash.
After leaving the guard room, Jiang Lin immediately met Tian Yan's gaze.
"Kid, you really do have a twisted sense of humor."
Jiang Lin shook his head, his expression turning serious.
"Sister Tian Yan, you've misunderstood me."
"I've never liked killing people, much less torturing them. If possible, I actually never want to make a move."
"But good people are bullied. When I first arrived during the day, that man insulted me. After I taught him a lesson, he still harbored malicious intentions, forcing me to face an enemy far stronger than I should have at my current stage."
"The reason I tortured him like this today was to let those people see exactly what happens when they offend me!"
