Chapter 655: Chapter 654: Who Dares to Make a Move
A dark shadow whizzed by.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound ensued, and Liu Zheng’s head was blown to smithereens.
Blood stained the rooftop red.
Lin Hao’s figure paused and slowly retracted his fist.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
"Young Master Liu!!!"
"Liu Zheng, you..."
Li Qingshan and Li Qingyun, standing beside Liu Zheng, were shocked beyond belief.
They could never have imagined that Lin Hao would truly dare to make a move.
Liu Zheng is dead??
Could it be?
Li Qingshan and Li Qingyun were both dumbfounded.
A mix of fear and despair surged in their hearts.
Liu Zheng was the Liu Family’s genius disciple, the legitimate scion of Liu Estate, and the future heir of the Li Family!
Lin Hao actually had the audacity to kill him on the spot.
Li Hongyuan and several other elders of the Li Family were also utterly shocked, their eyes wide and round.
Li Qingshan and Li Qingyun turned deathly pale, trembling uncontrollably.
"You... you dare to kill my brother!" Li Hongyuan pointed at Lin Hao, his teeth clenched in anger.
"What would I dare not? I just wanted to make him pay a price, that’s all."
"Besides, if I don’t kill him, should I leave you two brothers alive?"
"However, since they chose death, I’ll grant them that wish!"
Lin Hao said indifferently.
Lin Hao’s words sent chills down the spines of Li Hongyuan and his brother, their hearts hanging in their throats.
"You, you can’t kill me, my father is the head of the Li Estate. If you dare touch a single hair on me, my father won’t let you off!"
"My uncle is the master of the Li Estate. If you dare to harm me, my uncle won’t let you off either!"
"My uncle is a Level Eight True Yuan martial artist, if you kill me, he will never let you get away with it."
Li Hongyuan and Li Qingyun kept on pleading.
"Enough noise!"
Lin Hao, not bothering to deal with them any further, glanced at Liu Zheng’s body and a hint of mockery surfaced on his face.
Seeing this, Li Qingshan’s and Li Qingshan’s expressions dramatically changed.
"What... what are you going to do!!!"
Their faces were pale as they cried out in horror.
"What am I going to do?"
"I just want to take his life!"
"You two, shut up and don’t waste my time!"
Lin Hao commanded with a cold voice.
Li Hongyuan and Li Qingshan’s faces turned wildly.
They wanted to resist but were also afraid.
Lin Hao’s strength was too overwhelming, completely beyond their capability to resist.
"I gave you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it. Now, I have to personally see you off."
"Go!"
Lin Hao flicked his sleeve, and Liu Zheng’s body was absorbed into the storage ring.
He lifted his foot and kicked towards Li Hongyuan.
"Bang!"
With a kick, Lin Hao sent Li Hongyuan flying out.
Li Hongyuan crashed through the wall, fell into the yard, vomited fresh blood, and fainted.
This time, Li Hongyuan was thoroughly crippled and became a disabled person, unable to cultivate ever again.
Everyone from the Li Family was dumbstruck.
They had not expected Lin Hao to really take action against Li Hongyuan.
Li Hongyuan was a core figure of the Li Family, the pride of the higher echelons!
Now, the Li Family’s influence was likely to be greatly diminished.
"Lin Hao, you beast! How dare you kill my elder brother, you’re asking for death!"
"The Li Family won’t let you off, even if it means going down with you, I will make sure you are buried with me!"
Li Qingyun and Li Qingyun yelled frantically, their eyes filled with venomous hate and madness.
In such a situation, they still dared to threaten Lin Hao.
Suddenly, a cold glint shone in Lin Hao’s eyes.
"I’ll count to three, and if you two don’t scram, then I will extinguish you first!"
Lin Hao said icily.
Behind Lin Hao, a towering Golden Crow Ape King suddenly appeared.
It was a Level Nine Peak True Yuan Golden Crow Ape King!
The Golden Crow Ape King’s crimson eyes exuded a terrifying ferocity that made one’s heart palpitate.
At this moment, everyone from the Li Family was terrified.
Li Hongyuan had already passed out again.
Li Qingshan and Li Qingyun were also subdued, their faces pale as they scrambled away from the villa, fleeing for their lives.
Lin Hao watched as they disappeared, a cold smirk forming on his lips.
"Hold it!" suddenly, a loud roar!
It was Liu Zheng’s voice!
Liu Zheng wasn’t dead!
He rose from the ground.
Seeing Lin Hao actually killed his own younger brother Liu Zheng, his face contorted with ferocity, like a demon, he screamed, "You bastard, you killed my brother, I’ll make you beg for life but beg for death in vain!"
Lin Hao turned around, staring at Liu Zheng, his eyes narrowing slightly.
This Liu Zheng was indeed not simple.
He was clearly dead, yet he still struggled to get up, and what’s more, he seemed to have regained seventy to eighty percent of his strength.
"What’s going on?" Lin Hao asked.
He could feel that there was a tremendous power contained within Liu Zheng’s body.
"You killed my brother, you must pay with your life!"
Liu Zheng roared, his eyes blood-red, as ferocious as a ghastly spirit.
His strength surged once again!
"So that’s how it is." Lin Hao had an epiphany, his eyes sparkling with understanding.
"You little mongrel, today I will have your life!"
Liu Zheng bellowed.
Liu Zheng charged at him again.
Lin Hao frowned, and the phantom of the Golden Crow Ape King condensed behind him, charging toward Liu Zheng.
This move was one that Lin Hao had comprehended from the "Five Elements Sword Art."
"Boom!"
The Golden Crow Ape King broke through the spatial barrier, appearing in front of Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng’s complexion drastically changed; he hadn’t expected the Golden Crow Ape King’s speed to be even faster than he had imagined!
Liu Zheng hurriedly dodged to the side.
"Bang!"
The Golden Crow Ape King struck out with a palm, hitting Liu Zheng’s chest.
Crack!
Liu Zheng’s breastbone shattered.
His internal organs were severely damaged, and he spewed out a mouthful of blood.
Liu Zheng was thrown backward, crashing through a window.
Thump!
Liu Zheng landed on the ground, one leg broken.
This time, he could no longer stand up.
"You bastard, if you have the guts, don’t leave!"
Liu Zheng gnashed his teeth, struggling up from the ground and roaring furiously.
Lin Hao glanced at Liu Zheng and, without agreeing, turned and left.
Seeing this, Liu Zheng’s eyes nearly popped out in a towering rage.
"You bastard, I want you dead, I want you dead, I want you dead..."
Liu Zheng howled hysterically.
Unfortunately, Lin Hao did not stop in his tracks.
"Bang!"
Liu Zheng fell to the ground again, howling in pain.
"Ha ha! You slut, you still have the face to stay in the Li Family?"
"Does a woman like you deserve to marry into the Li Family?"
"Our Li Family will not tolerate such a lowly woman!"
Li Hongyuan, Li Qingshan, and Li Qingyun stood aside, watching the scene with glee, delighting in the misfortune to the extreme.
They couldn’t wait for Lin Hao and Liu Zheng to both be badly hurt!
The faces of the Li Family members were livid.
"Liu Zheng, stop making trouble! If you cause any more issues, I’ll disable you!"
An old woman, with a grim face, spoke.
She was Li Hongyuan’s wet nurse, a Spirit Beast Master with terrifying strength.
Upon hearing his wet nurse’s voice, Liu Zheng immediately quieted down.
He glared hatefully at Lin Hao’s departing figure, wishing he could devour Lin Hao’s flesh and gnaw his bones.
Unfortunately, he no longer had the strength to stand.
Li Hongyuan and the others, looking in the direction Lin Hao had disappeared, all revealed excited expressions.
Lin Hao, after all, met his end in the Li Residence.
For them, this was the most satisfying ending!
...
Lin Hao returned to his place of residence.
He sat down in the pavilion in the courtyard, contemplating the day’s events.
He thought for a while and decided to leave the Li Family first.
This time, having killed Liu Zheng, the Li Family members were certainly not going to let it go easily.
Lin Hao did not want to cause Liu Zheng’s father’s death because of himself.
Moreover, he was also worried that Li Qingshan and Li Qingyun would find him for revenge.
Lin Hao wanted to make a trip to Tiannan Province.
He needed to increase his strength as soon as possible in order to protect his friends.
"Hm? Interesting."
Suddenly, Lin Hao sensed a whiff of dangerous aura.
He looked up to see a figure approaching.
The newcomer was a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious brocade clothes, good-looking with an imposing demeanor.
"You little mongrel, you finally decide to come out. I thought you had hidden at the ends of the earth!"
Liu Zheng coldly said.
