To Flaying Cliff?
Isn’t that... being flayed?
Over the years, in this lawless zone, the East Atlantic Company and the City Lord of Freedom City have been the kings here.
Flaying Cliff was also a place they established to punish those who refused to submit to their rule.
Legend has it that this was originally a place of sacrifice for a native tribe thousands of years ago. After Carter and Ascetic Doug arrived, they joined forces with the Red Knight to turn this place into what they called the Heretic Court.
Anyone caught by them would be taken to Flaying Cliff, skinned alive, and then the bloodied, skinless bodies would be hung from the cliff to serve as fish bait, left for the man-eating fish in the sea to tear apart bit by bit.
Cruel, bloody, utterly inhumane.
Yet, very effective.
Ever since the existence of Flaying Cliff on Transshipnt Island, even the boldest of the underworld did not dare to oppose the East Atlantic Company and Freedom City.
The thod of flaying was a cruel torture concocted by Carter, Ascetic Doug, and the Red Knight together.
Even, Carter and Ascetic Doug would often go to watch, saying it was for their cultivation.
They certainly knew how painful being skinned alive was.
And now, they never imagined that they themselves would have the opportunity to experience the agony of being flayed.
Dragged like a dead dog in Lin Hao’s hand, the two couldn’t struggle at all.
They were dragged seven or eight ters before coming to their senses.
Just thinking about being skinned alive was horrifying, watching others could be tolerable, but they themselves certainly didn’t want to be flayed — not even in death did they want to endure such pain.
"No, no, no!"
"Please, let us go, I’ll give you money, lots and lots of money!"
Carter and Ascetic Doug were panicking at this mont, screaming as if their hearts were being ripped out.
"Money? Do you think I look like soone who lacks money?" Lin Hao sneered disdainfully, dragging the two on the ground as he continued forward.
"Primordial Stones, we have Primordial Stones..."
Before they finished speaking, Carter and Ascetic Doug wanted to slap themselves.
Was Lin Hao soone who lacked Primordial Stones?
The man had hundreds of tons of Primordial Stones in his ring.
Would they really be taken to Flaying Cliff to be flayed?
What should they do?
"Save ! Who can save !"
"I am the apprentice of John Robert, the rotating president of the East Atlantic Company, whoever can save will be handsoly rewarded!"
"My brother-in-law is company director Joseph, whoever saves will be guaranteed wealth and honor!"
Carter and Ascetic Doug weren’t fools, noticing the increasing crowd gathering around to watch the excitent; they desperately shouted for help, not caring for their dignity.
However, who among these experts would dare to cross Lin Hao?
That was soone with the audacity to face eight Sky-breaking Experts head-on, who could risk it all to injure a Sky-breaking Expert with a blast.
Who would dare to provoke him?
Everyone stood far away, watching Lin Hao dragging Carter and Ascetic Doug forward, none daring to step in to save them.
People were comnting and pointing fingers, but almost all were simply there for the spectacle.
On Transshipnt Island, who wasn’t afraid of being flayed by these two?
Now that these two were about to be flayed, in fact, many people were secretly applauding.
"Hold on."
```
The crowd blinked, and soone descended from the sky, blocking Lin Hao’s path.
"These two cannot be killed."
"Oh?"
Lin Hao sneered coldly, looking at the person who blocked his way.
The blocker was none other than Nicholas.
These Sky-breaking Experts had led their people to raid the East Atlantic Company’s stronghold and empty it. Coming out to see Lin Hao dragging Carter and Ascetic Doug, and hearing that these two were indeed related to the high-ranks of the East Atlantic Company, Nicholas could not stand it anymore.
"These two are useful to us. With them, we can more easily force the East Atlantic Company to open their gateway. If we were to kill them, heh." Nicholas sneered coldly, his eyes looking as if Lin Hao does not release them, he will take action to snatch them away.
"Right, this is a great opportunity to make the East Atlantic Company compromise. With these two, it’s better for all of us."
Another figure fell from the sky, and Alexander appeared beside Nicholas, blocking the way ahead for Lin Hao.
"Is that so?" Lin Hao sneered coldly, showing no intention of compromise, and coldly looked at the two: "They kept insisting on sending to Flay Cliff, I’m just returning the favor. Moreover, I heard that the East Atlantic Company has killed quite a few Huaxia Cultivators at Flay Cliff this month. Today, no one can stop from killing them."
After speaking, Lin Hao took another step forward, walking straight ahead, without taking Nicholas and Alexander seriously at all.
"So you prefer the penalty of drinking over the respect of toasting? Do you really think I dare not kill you? I now command you to drop them!" Nicholas was so furious that he was puffing up his mustache. A re youth at the Refining God Realm First Layer Heaven, he made him face considerable hardship and lose face today, and now he dares to confront him.
Unbearable!
But Lin Hao could bear it even less.
He looked coldly at Nicholas, with an increasingly disdainful expression and an arrogant and indomitable tone: "What do you think you are? The person I want to kill, you cannot save."
"Is that so?"
Too arrogant, too insolent!
To speak to him, a being of the Sky-breaking Realm, like this, saying he’s nothing!
Nicholas felt the greatest humiliation he hadn’t experienced in over two hundred years, feeling as if his chest would explode, and could no longer hold back. With a roar, he suddenly pounced towards Lin Hao: "Today I will kill you first and see if I cannot save them!"
After all, Nicholas was a Sky-breaking Expert, and his pounce was full of montum.
Lin Hao, however, no longer had a terrifying weapon like the Primordial Qi Bomb, and even if he had a Primordial Stone, he had no ti to refine it.
Sky-breaking Realm versus Refining God Realm!
This ti, it seed Lin Hao had no chance to fight back!
The onlookers around didn’t have ti to pull away to a safe distance when Nicholas had already reached Lin Hao.
"Die!"
Nicholas roared furiously, and Lin Hao still stood his ground without dodging.
At that mont, three streaks of starlight fell from the sky, precisely blocking Nicholas’s strike as he reached Lin Hao.
"Boom!"
An explosive sound rang out, and the starlight was dazzling, blinding the eyes.
Nicholas felt as if his punch had hit an iron plate, his arm nearly shattering, stumbling backward.
As the starlight faded, three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts and the young man appeared in front of Lin Hao.
"Hey, it seems you never learn. How many tis have I told you, Lin Hao is a Huaxia person, if anyone is to kill him, it should be us Huaxia, not you." The young man looked proud, looking disdainfully at Nicholas with an extrely ugly expression.
"You!"
Nicholas was both angry and furious, but with three Huaxia Sky-breaking Experts beside him, any one of whom was stronger than him, he was unable to vent his rage.
"Not killing ? If you don’t kill , then I’ll leave."
Lin Hao sneered, holding onto Carter and continued walking ahead.
"Looking for death!" Nicholas took a step forward, wanting to take action again, but a powerful presence imdiately ca from the side, effectively blocking Nicholas.
"You think my words are useless? Then you can try. I assure you, your attack will not damage him, and you’ll be the one thrown back first. Besides, no one else can interfere with him." The young Huaxia Cultivator said with prideful cold laughter, looking disdainfully at Nicholas, his eyes full of warning.
