Chapter 84: Chapter 84: Angel’s Descent (12 more for subscription)
The Angel descends!
Tian Xin slowly landed in front of the large tree, his pristine wings, golden curls, and white robe all appearing so sacred in the sunlight, truly resembling an untouched Angel.
As he descended, his gaze gradually moved past the dense canopy and saw the face of the person standing under the tree.
“This face…” Tian Xin’s pupils shrank as he immediately recognized Lin Shen, and then his eyes fell on Wei Wufu.
Rage surged up in an instant, uncontrollable anger in his heart, “You two bastards, daring to show up, today if I don’t strip you down to your underwear, I’m not Tian Xin.”
As he was silently seething, Tian Xin caught a glimpse of the corpse of the Mutant Sea Demon God General from the corner of his eye, causing a shiver to run through his heart.
Having been here for so long, he had seen the Mutant Sea Demon God General before. He had wanted to hunt the Mutant Sea Demon God General, but unfortunately, he couldn’t take advantage in the sea.
The battle capabilities of the Mutant Sea Demon God General in the sea were not inferior to those of the Giant Sea Python he had killed before, and it could even be said to be more difficult to deal with.
Tian Xin didn’t know whether Lin Shen and his group had killed him after the Mutant Sea Demon God General had come ashore, and he immediately felt conflicted.
Looking at the hole in the head of the Mutant Sea Demon God General, his heart skipped a beat again.
It was clear that aside from the forehead, there were no other injuries on the body of the Mutant Sea Demon God General, indicating that it was killed by a single blow.
The strength required to kill the Mutant Sea Demon God General in one hit was, of course, greatly feared by Tian Xin.
No matter what, he was still at the Crystal Base Level. Although he was among the top in this level, stronger than most Mutated Crystal-based Creatures, he was not strong enough to completely overpower them, nor was it possible to kill the Mutant Sea Demon God General with a single strike.
As his eyes returned to Lin Shen, Tian Xin recalled Lin Shen’s bizarre ability to immobilize him with a casual flick, and his mind was again ruled by fear. Lin Shen’s image seemed to grow taller, shrouded in a vague mist.
In a daze, he thought he saw a faint smile playing at the corner of Lin Shen’s mouth.
“This guy is no ordinary Human, he didn’t kill me before, and now he’s returned, surely he is fully prepared. The Mutant Sea Demon God General was killed in a single blow, which shows how vicious the method he prepared must be, maybe he’s just waiting for me to deliver myself to him for another robbery…”
Upon this realization, Tian Xin suddenly saw the light, his mind coming to an understanding, “No wonder that damned Human betrayed his companions to tip me off, how could there be such a person, this must all be a conspiracy, those two bastards still want to rob me…”
Tian Xin gave Zheng Yan a cold glance, cursing his ancestors in his heart and swearing to make him wish for death if he ever got the chance.
“Robbing an Angel… split up and escape… Lu Qing, you go first… I’ll cover the rear…” Zheng Yan’s acting was truly exceptional, his face a picture of terror as he grabbed Lu Qing and ran, not forgetting to shout and remind his companions.
Those watching from the outside couldn’t help but praise Zheng Yan’s acting skills, sensing just how sly this person truly was.
If it weren’t for seeing Zheng Yan’s actions from a god’s-eye view, perhaps they would have been moved by him now.
“This guy really is shameless to the core.” Even Wang Tian’er couldn’t help but exclaim.
“That person is indeed very boring, but if it means we can get rid of Lin Shen, it might not be such a bad thing,” said Qi Shuheng. “It all depends on whether Lin Shen will obediently let himself be robbed. Although his handgun is formidable, it’s probably no match for robbing an Angel. Based on the Angel’s performance, if Lin Shen becomes arrogant enough to refuse the robbery, then he’s as good as dead.”
Wang Tian’er looked at Qi Shuheng, his expression complex, and said, “Lin Shen’s death might not be to our advantage.”
“How can it not be to our advantage? Did you not see the power of his gun? If we let him return alive, just with that gun, he would be a huge threat to both our families,” argued Qi Shuheng.
“Do you really think he’s a threat to us?” asked Wang Tian’er.
“Why wouldn’t he be?” Qi Shuheng felt that Wang Tian’er was speaking strangely today.
“Let’s put it this way, among the Qi, Wang, and Lin families, why have our two families gotten along better?” Wang Tian’er sighed before Qi Shuheng could speak, continued, “Although we are reluctant to admit it, we know deep down that we can’t beat those brothers from the Lin Family. We couldn’t beat them when Mr. Lin Zongzheng was around, and even now that he’s gone, we still can’t. Because we know in our hearts that the Lin Family has the capability to annihilate us, we subconsciously want to stick together for warmth. We couldn’t handle the third and fourth brothers before, and now the fifth brother is quickly becoming a threat. But so what? If the fifth brother dies, are we suddenly going to be able to beat the Lin Family? Have you forgotten about the person we met at Giant Mountain?”
Qi Shuheng fell silent after this speech. Although he didn’t want to admit it, he knew Wang Tian’er was right.
“Now the secret of Gourd Mountain can’t be kept any longer, and it’s only a matter of time before people from the big families arrive. At this point, our three families should really be on the same side, comrades in arms. If the three families unite, we have a better chance of gaining the most benefits from those big families. After all, having lived together in one base for so many years, we both know well what kind of people the Lin Family is. They’re not the type to completely eradicate others; otherwise, our two families wouldn’t be in the situation we are now,” continued Wang Tian’er.
After a long silence, Qi Shuheng sighed lightly and said, “I was hoping that place could be our big opportunity, but now it’s all gone.”
Above the Alien World, those who had been robbed from the Lu Family scattered and fled in all directions, with no one wanting to be robbed again.
They had just managed to save up a little property, and if it were taken away again, they would really have nothing left.
“Go,” urged Lu Qing, gritting her teeth. She didn’t flee but rather shook off Zheng Yan’s hand and ran to Lin Shen’s side instead.
Zheng Yan’s face turned ugly, but in such a moment, he couldn’t say much.
Lin Shen looked at Lu Qing in surprise, not expecting her to do this.
Seeing Lin Shen looking at her, Lu Qing tried to appear nonchalant and said, “Don’t get me wrong, I just figured I couldn’t escape anyway, so I didn’t want to waste the effort.”
Lin Shen looked at Lu Qing, thinking to himself, “Lu Qing is really a good person, it’s just that fate is too difficult to fathom.”
Lu Qing turned her head away, unable to meet Lin Shen’s gaze, and looked at the Angel who had landed on the ground opposite them, thinking that if she was going to be robbed, she didn’t want to leave Lin Shen alone again.
All eyes were focused on the Angel, waiting for his familiar opener, waiting for him to utter the phrase, “Let’s be friends.”
How Lin Shen would choose was also a point of curiosity for everyone. Would the playboy obediently allow himself to be robbed, or would he use that miraculous handgun to fight the Angel?
Not many were optimistic about his chances; after all, Lin Shen’s own level was too low. If a fight really broke out, he might not even have the chance to fire his gun.
After all, firing a gun still takes time, and without the opportunity for a surprise shot, the Angel would not give him the chance to fire.
