Seeing the middle-aged expert, Lin Tian felt a rush of fear. If not for Xiahou Qingyi, he would have just died.
He stepped on the chest of the middle-aged expert and shouted, "Speak, where did Zhang Ya take Bu ngting?"
After Lin Tian finished speaking, he pressed down hard with his foot, and the middle-aged expert let out a scream of agony, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Xiahou Qingyi said from the side, "He's been poisoned, and the poison is taking effect. He's about to die."
"What happened? How did you get poisoned?" Lin Tian asked.
The middle-aged expert answered weakly, "Since my arm was disabled, my strength has greatly diminished. Zhang Ya saw as useless. The poison was from Zhang Ya; she feared I would run away, so she ordered to wait here to kill you and use your head in exchange for the antidote."
"Where is Zhang Ya?" Lin Tian asked.
The middle-aged expert pointed in a direction and said, "If I can't kill you, she told to lead you there, where she would continue to ambush and kill you."
Lin Tian thought for a mont and asked, "What if you do kill ?"
"She told to cut off your head and show it to her. After confirmation, she would bring the hostage over, kill them together, flay and gut you, and turn you into wax figures," said the middle-aged expert with a shiver of fear.
Lin Tian smiled, having an idea. He ran to a secluded place and spoke to the "Taotie System," "Make a head that's identical to mine."
Very soon, a head that looked exactly like Lin Tian's was made, with fresh blood at the severed part, indistinguishable from the real thing.
Lin Tian took the head and said to the middle-aged expert, "You have two choices. The first choice is to die, the second is to use this head to deceive Zhang Ya. If you succeed, you can live."
Lin Tian then took out a healing potion and continued, "This potion can bring the dead back to life. Drink it, and it will detoxify your body. Cooperate with , and you can live."
Despite Lin Tian having killed his brother, nothing was more important than living. The middle-aged expert nodded and agreed.
Lin Tian handed the head to the middle-aged expert, saying, "After it's done, I'll give you the antidote. Now, go quickly."
The middle-aged expert ran off with the head.
No sooner had he left than Jiang Hui and Wang Ying arrived with a hundred bodyguards. Everyone lay in ambush around the area, quietly waiting for Zhang Ya to take the bait.
Ten minutes later, four figures hurriedly approached from a distance. In the middle was Zhang Ya, bringing Bu ngting. On the left was the middle-aged expert, and on the right was Winston.
However, they stopped a hundred ters from Lin Tian's ambush. Zhang Ya felt sothing was wrong and scanned the surroundings with watchful eyes.
Suddenly, one of Jiang Hui's bodyguards exposed himself and was spotted by Zhang Ya.
Lin Tian inwardly cursed at the mishap and yelled, "Charge and kill them!"
Realizing she had been tricked, Zhang Ya shouted at the middle-aged expert, "You dare betray ."
She threw Lin Tian's head, drew a dagger, and stabbed it into the chest of the middle-aged expert. With an imnse sense of betrayal, he fell to the ground.
Lin Tian shouted, "That foreigner, let Xiahou Qingyi and Jiang Hui handle it, Wang Ying, co with to rescue ngting."
Zhang Ya, bringing Bu ngting and Winston with her, rapidly retreated. Wang Ying raised his gun, aid at Zhang Ya's arm, and fired a shot.
Zhang Ya's arm was hit, and her body fell forward; Bu ngting was flung aside, landing about five ters from Zhang Ya.
Xiahou Qingyi and Jiang Hui quickly caught up, clashing with Winston who was an expert just half a step from Mirror Condensation, but Xiahou Qingyi was not weak either, fully capable of handling him.
Lin Tian and Wang Ying also quickly surrounded Zhang Ya, killing her would be like taking sothing out of a bag.
Zhang Ya herself was a great beauty, now having been shot and lying on the ground, she looked even more pitiful.
However, Lin Tian had not a shred of rcy for her; he knew that beneath her beautiful exterior lay a venomous heart.
Zhang Ya, clutching her wound, stared at Lin Tian and asked, "You fooled with that fake 'head', tell , how did you do it?"
Lin Tian said, "You don't deserve to ask . Out of consideration for the deep affection you once had for , today, I will bury you and not let your body be exposed to the wilderness."
Lin Tian looked at Wang Ying and said, "Do it."
Wang Ying nodded, aid his gun at Zhang Ya's forehead, and pulled the trigger.
But at the very mont the bullet flew out, another long spear shot through the air. This spear flew at a speed ten tis faster than the one aid at Lin Tian, arriving in an instant. Its target was not a person but the bullet fired by Wang Ying.
Twenty centiters before reaching Zhang Ya, the bullet was deflected by the spear, which, in the instant of contact, sparked a string of sparks.
One must know that Wang Ying's sharpshooting skill was developed by humans three thousand years later, powerful beyond imagination. Yet Lin Tian did not see the person who had thrown the spear, proving they were at a great distance, beyond his range of vision. From such a distance, the spear had been thrown with unerring accuracy to hit Wang Ying's bullet. Both in terms of speed and precision, it was much stronger than Wang Ying's sharpshooting.
Therefore, the strength of this person must be terrifying. Even Xiahou Qingyi was no match for him. Suddenly, Lin Tian felt utterly disheartened. If this person was with Zhang Ya, then they were dood.
Afterward, a silhouette slowly erged from the direction of the flying spear. The figure appeared to be walking slowly, without the slightest hint of panic. However, with each step, it seed to cover a distance of a hundred ters, so in the blink of an eye, the person arrived just beyond a hundred ters from Lin Tian.
In another blink, Lin Tian didn't even see how the man moved, and then a large foot kicked him in the chest. Lin Tian was sent flying more than ten ters and crashed heavily to the ground.
Not just Lin Tian, but also Wang Ying, Jiang Hui, Xiahou Qingyi, and Winston were all sent flying, landing not far from Lin Tian.
The mysterious man spoke up, "People of Nidhogg are rely this? rely ants, weak and worthless, just like that Dragon Emperor, useless."
Then, the mysterious man approached Lin Tian, took out a token from his chest, and tossed it at Lin Tian's feet, saying,
"When you get back, give this token to that Dragon Emperor and tell him, I will co for him. From now on, I see any mbers of Nidhogg, I kill them, one or two, it doesn't matter. In the end, I will kill the Dragon Emperor and let him watch helplessly as Nidhogg, the organization he takes pride in for having built, crumbles by my hand."
After that, the mysterious man walked up to Zhang Ya and declared, "I'm taking this woman with . If you ever encounter again, that will be the day you die!"
"Hahaha...!"
