Fishing the Myriad Heavens Chapter 223

Chapter 223: Esteemed Xiantian Lord? It’s Not Like Our Lord Haven’t Killed One Before!
Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
Everyone was completely stunned.
This was like throwing some firecrackers into a lake to catch some small fishes, only to draw out a shark!
Those influential powers had never once taken the security company seriously, and considered them a complete non-factor. After all, the small security company was like a soft piece of plaster, to be molded as they wished. However, who would have thought that the backing behind this piece of plaster would be so tough!
Especially the part about the ‘Lord’ coming over personally? Someone who could subdue a ruthless Evolved Jing master and command him like a servant would definitely be at the Xiantian level, or on the verge of becoming one, at least! If a character like that wished to settle the scores with them at that time, none of them would have a good time!
“I suddenly remembered that I have some urgent maters at home, and won’t be able to stay. I’ll be making a move first!” a low level Evolved Jing expert said with an animated expression. There wasn’t really any chance for him. If he can’t even defeat a servant, what was the point of staying?
“Haha, Fellow Daoist, this matter is just a misunderstanding… since there’s nothing important now, I’ll be returning as well.”
Numerous other Evolved Jing masters also declared their intention to leave, and were already turning in the other direction.
“Please hold! I’ll have to ask the various seniors to wait here since our Lord is already on the way. Otherwise, if our Lord was forced to pay your clans a visit personally, things would not be so simple at that time,” Mystic Three took another step forward and shouted, not showing any fear at all in his voice.
“What’s the meaning of this? Are you threatening us?”
The faces of the Evolved Jing masters immediately turned ugly. A few of those who were leaving also stopped their steps and turned around as they asked with unfriendly tones.
“Junior is merely stating the facts. Not only you all, those who are hiding in the shadows are not allowed to leave as well!” Mystic Three braved the hostile pressure from all the Evolved Jing masters and slowly spat the sentence out.
“Shua!”
Those Evolved Jing masters hiding in the shadows scoffed coldly as they heard Mystic Three’s words. What big words!
Over ten Evolved Jing masters appeared from different directions. All of them were gazing at the Mystics coldly.
“Sir, should we intervene now?” someone asked.
“Forget it, let’s return. The moment those words were uttered, there could not be peace between the two sides. Offending so many Evolved Jing masters in one shot, even a Xiantian Lord would have to consider if it’s worth the price!”
Cang Zan shook his head lightly. These people, for the sake of their face and pride as Evolved Jing masters, would definitely not let the matter rest.
The people from the special task force left quickly. Those who were still there could only watch as Cang Zan and the rest left. At the same time, they were looking at Mystic Three’s group with unfriendly gazes.
“Young man, do you know that you will bring a lot of trouble to your lord by saying that?” an elderly Evolved Jing master said as he stared at Mystic Three. However, he did not see any traces of fear in the latter’s eyes. He looked somewhat uncomfortable, having to withstand the pressure of all the Evolved Jing masters. But that was only to be expected. More surprising was that the group did not seem to be frightened at all!
“Someone was actually bold enough to plot against us, so this matter will definitely not end simply this time. Perhaps the seniors here could help us to find the offenders?” Mystic Three continued with a steady tone as he swept his gaze over the crowd. There was no hint that he had any intentions to avoid a confrontation at all.
“Are you trying to get us to stay so that we can run errands for you?”
Another Evolved Jing master spat with a face as black as the bottom of a wok. How many years had it been since someone last dared to speak to him like that?!
“What’s the point of speaking so much with these people? Let’s take them down directly! I really do want to see how impressive this Lord of theirs is, to dare to belittle us like this!”
A late stage Evolved Jing master growled. However, nobody responded to him.
“Does this mean that you are going to refuse?”
A cold light flashed in Mystic Three’s serpentine eyes as he looked at the late stage Evolved Jing master.
“So what if I refuse? Stop pretending in front of me. I’ll capture you all first, and let your Lord come over and redeem you!”
Hu Cheng Lin acted immediately after saying that. To him, that bunch of people were just putting on a false show of force. Who knows? The person in black might be their so called Lord! These people might just be pretending, trying to scare them off!
As for the ‘Lord’ who could have an Evolved Jing master as a servant? Even if he was not a Xiantian Lord, he won’t be far from that stage. Why would such a person even bother to own a security company?
Mystic Three felt as though his opponent had transformed into a wild beast, leaping at him, causing his limbs to stiffen up and be unable to react.
The other experts nearby stood quietly with their hands clasped behind their backs. Since there was someone willing to be the first one to test the waters, it was all the better. In any case, if anything happened, they could simply blame everything on that person!
“Peng!”
In the critical moment, Ripper arrived in a flash, blocking in front of Mystic Three. It drew its left leg to the side and sent a fist out, meeting Hu Cheng Lin’s strike head-on.
Unexpectedly, Ripper only swayed slightly on the spot, while Hu Cheng Lin took seven, eight steps backwards.
Ripper did not pause at all as its body leaned forward, like a well practiced beast hunting its prey. Without even waiting for Hu Cheng Lin to steady himself, it pressed the attack and arrived before him!
Another fist was slammed towards Hu Cheng Lin. The fight became increasingly fast-paced as the man and the robot exchanged blows. Ripper’s entire body was like the most terrifying weapon!
Hu Cheng Lin was completely suppressed from the start. The more he fought, the more anxious he felt. His opponent did not rely on any Qi energy or techniques at all, only relying on the strength of his body and his crazy speed!
His own Qi would disappear without a trace, as though it had sunken into a vast ocean, whenever he blasted it into the cloaked fellow. It did not even cause his opponent to pause at all! Furthermore, each time they exchanged blows, he felt like he was hitting a metal plate!
After tens to a hundred blows, Hu Cheng Lin’s rhythm began to change. ‘D*mn it, why is he so strong!’ Hu Cheng Lin was riding atop a tiger right now, and did not have a way of getting down. His opponent was also tying him down too tightly, so even if he wanted to break away from the fight, he could not do so.
A red light suddenly flashed under Ripper’s cloak as it discovered an opening. Seeing its chance, it did not hesitate to unleash a sudden strike!
‘Not good!’
Hu Cheng Lin’s face changed drastically as he hurriedly raised both hands to block.
“Peng!”
“Kacha!”
A teeth-numbing sound of bones fracturing could be heard. Both of Hu Cheng Lin’s arms were bent at a strange angle. He was also thrown into the air forcefully, causing him to slam back downwards against the ground painfully.
Ripper continued walking towards Hu Cheng Lin unhurriedly. A long claw extended from its middle finger.
“Pu!”
“Wait! This matter is completely my fault! I admit defeat!”
Hu Cheng Lin forced himself to stand up, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
His condition was not very good right now. Both his arms were already snapped and bent in such a weird manner that they were obviously useless. A section of his chest had also sunk in. There was no need to say what a terrible state he was in.
Ripper did not seem to have heard him at all as it continued walking towards him. Each step was like the tolling of hell’s calls, stepping on his heart.
The other Evolved Jing masters had fallen silent completely as they looked at Mystic Three, wondering how he would settle this matter.
“There’s an Esteemed Xiantian Lord in my clan! If you kill me, it would mean a war with my clan! This responsibility…” Hu Cheng Lin said with some panic. Seeing Ripper finally stop moving, he finally managed to let loose a sigh of relief. But just as he was about to feel happy, a line had appeared on his neck , causing him to look down with disbelief.
‘How…did he dare to kill me?!’
That was the last thought going through Hu Cheng Lin’s mind. The last thing he saw was the sight behind one of the holes on Ripper’s cloak. The figure inside… was completely coated in metal!
“Ge… hgru!”
Two inaudible words were muttered by him as Hu Cheng Lin fell to the ground with fresh blood flowing freely from his neck.
“So what if there’s an Esteemed Xiantian Lord backing you? It’s not like my Lord had never killed one of those before!”
Mystic Three’s voice floated over, causing an effect akin to a heavy bomb’s! The other Evolved Jing masters were all feeling slightly faint at this point.
“Hopefully master will not blame us… ”
Mystic Three was also feeling rather aggrieved. His heart was feeling extremely uneasy. Previously, he was still too absorbed in the fight. Thus, when he regained his wits again, it was too late.
