Endless Throne - Chapter 29
In Lin Yebai’s eyes, Zhang San becoming points was the best outcome. Without stopping, the blade was covered with a thin layer of blade intent:
“Spare his life——” A male voice suddenly came from the distance, with extremely strong penetrating power. But that person was too far away, everyone could only see a small black dot, and no one paid much attention.
[Big White Rabbit Milk Candy]: The classic scene has appeared
[Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon]: Place your bets, guess whether Zhang San will die today
[The Ordinary Me]: I think he will
[Class Representative]: I think so too
Lin Yebai glanced toward where the voice came from.
“I still have five hundred blood pearls……” Zhang San found an opportunity and hurriedly spoke his last bargaining chip.
If he didn’t speak now, he might die.
“Where are they?” Lin Yebai saw that Zhang San didn’t seem very smart, so he asked tentatively.
Perhaps he could get an answer, which would be some gain.
“If I tell you, will you let me go?” Zhang San looked at the factory director getting closer and closer, feeling that he might escape disaster.
Lin Yebai didn’t agree, the blade penetrated more than half an inch into Zhang San’s neck.
“I’ll tell… I’ll only tell Zhou Yuan, is that okay?” Zhang San’s face was deathly pale, tears rolling down.
Zhou Yuan was one of his own people, and would become his wife sooner or later anyway.
Lin Yebai looked toward Zhou Yuan.
Even though very reluctant, thinking of the huge sum in Zhang San’s hands, Zhou Yuan was still tempted and nodded slightly.
“Put your head over here, I’ll whisper it in your ear.” Zhang San was delighted – Zhou Yuan was actually willing to listen, what did this mean? It meant Zhou Yuan accepted him.
Zhou Yuan frowned, his face full of disgust, very reluctantly cooperating with Zhang San, finally hearing clearly the location Zhang San mentioned.
“Yuan Yuan, don’t you have something you want to say to me?” Zhang San felt his bold confession today was very romantic – any girl would be moved.
“Yes……” Having learned the whereabouts of the five hundred blood pearls, Zhou Yuan was in a good mood. Even if he gave Brother Lin four hundred, he could still keep one hundred. His eyes even curved slightly, extremely bright.
“Ah……” Zhang San’s eyes lit up. Was what he most anticipated finally going to happen?
Sure enough, true love had to go through the trials of life and death to transform.
Zhou Yuan leaned close to Zhang San’s ear, lowered his voice and quietly said something.
[Literary Mentor]: Who is it beside me~ saying~ love me never changes
[Super Rich Tangerine Seat]: Just for this one sentence~ even heartbreak brings no regret~
[Watermelon Patch Sinner]: Rain heartbroken~ wind in tears~
Lin Yebai had good hearing – whether it was Zhang San’s location for hiding the 500 blood pearls, or what Zhou Yuan said, he heard everything clearly.
Zhang San’s body suddenly trembled, pupils constricted, heart dead as ash, eyeballs slightly protruding, looking at Zhou Yuan in disbelief, lips trembling slightly, wanting to speak but stopping.
The next moment, his head flew out, rolled on the ground, bounced several meters high, bouncing continuously.
Worthy of its rubber texture, extraordinarily bouncy.
[Killed intermediate aberrant x1]
[Points +500]
Lin Yebai was somewhat disappointed, but not surprised. Although Zhang San had a special constitution, his actual combat power hadn’t exceeded the limits of intermediate aberrants, still having major flaws, far inferior to Ergou.
“Such audacity, daring to kill even my workshop head——“
The male voice got closer and closer, with a fat body shape that looked like a meat ball with wings from a distance, flying at decent speed, looking somewhat comical.
“Xiahou Yun, are you willing to serve me?” The only aberrant he cared about was Xiahou Yun – a doctor, too precious.
“Factory Owner Daren is joking. Being able to serve you is my honor.” Xiahou Yun smiled slightly, seeming extremely honored, but in his heart was thinking about Zhang San’s five hundred blood pearls. If he could scrape some out and offer them to Lin Yebai, that would be even better.
“Good, you’re indeed someone who knows the times. Since that’s the case, kneel down and kowtow three times to me.” The flying fat man had a face full of flesh, eyes squeezed into thin slits, heavy dark circles, looking extremely arrogant. Strange black mist swirled around his body, with powerful aura that couldn’t be ignored, faintly feeling like it exceeded Ergou.
“Factory Owner Daren, you’re joking……” A hint of coldness flashed in Xiahou Yun’s eyes.
“You said you’d serve me, so from now on your life belongs to me. How can you be unwilling to even kneel and kowtow?”
“And you others, if you also want to serve me, kneel down together.”
The factory director raised his chin, looking at the others with strong contempt and disdain.
“Unwilling to kneel? Then this factory director can only reluctantly accept your blood pearls.”
“Attack! Tear their flesh off piece by piece.”
The factory director’s voice was shrill, instantly reminding people of eunuchs in TV dramas, speaking in a strange, affected manner. He didn’t attack personally, seemingly feeling it beneath his dignity. Spreading his wings, he flew dozens of meters away, only watching coldly from the side.
The mindless low-level aberrants were the most numerous and also the most worthless. No matter how many died, he wouldn’t care. If he could beat Xiahou Yun and the others half to death, then subdue them, it would be much more worthwhile than a bunch of useless low-level aberrants. As for taking action personally… that didn’t suit his noble status. As a superior, how could he do everything personally?
The aberrants were extremely numerous. After a batch was killed, the remaining aberrants continuously surged onto the bridge. Unlike Zhang San’s command, the factory director had absolute control. Under his command, those aberrants had black mist pouring from their eyes, mouths and noses, their combat power improved by more than one level, completely frenzied, as if wanting to burn all the essence of the blood pearls in their skulls, very troublesome.
Even though Zhou Yuan and Coach Wang weren’t ordinary low-level aberrants, they still struggled greatly to cope. Xiahou Yun was much better, still able to share others’ pressure.
On the other side of the bridge, huge rumbling sounds suddenly came.
To block the aberrants catching up, they chose to blow up the bridge. The remaining people’s faces instantly became very ugly, especially Xiahou Yun.
He had a good relationship with Song Yao and had provided considerable help for establishing the shelter. Although he had always hidden things from Song Yao, he had never thought of betrayal, much less betrayed the shelter even once.
“You all retreat.” Lin Yebai had anticipated this long ago, telling Zhou Yuan and others to retreat to land.
The bridge was only half blown up, the remaining half was still solid, but fighting on the bridge made it easy to fall into the river.
“Sir?” Xiahou Yun wanted to stay close to Lin Yebai at all times.
“You go with them too.” Lin Yebai already had a plan in mind.
“Yes.” Xiahou Yun pulled open the deformed car door, dragging out Wang Zherongyao who was hiding inside playing dead.
“Cluck cluck cluck……” The old hen huddled sadly in the trunk, long forgotten by everyone.
Xiahou Yun casually picked it up, receiving the old hen’s extremely grateful look.
“Brother Lin, be careful.” Zhou Yuan actually wasn’t worried about Lin Yebai’s safety.
Brother Lin definitely wasn’t someone who would actively sacrifice himself for others. Having them retreat must mean he had other plans – they just needed to protect their own lives.
Apart from Zhou Yuan, Coach Wang, and Xiahou Yun’s group, everyone else from the shelter had perished.
On the other side of the bridge, Song Yao and others might have escaped danger – the factory director showed no intention of flying over.
Lin Yebai first sent Zhou Yuan and others back to land, then with swift blade work, heads rolled and fell, attracting countless aberrants.
The bridge was already broken. The completely mindless aberrants followed Lin Yebai rushing toward the break, falling into the river like dumplings, while Lin Yebai used this gap to fly out with light movement skills, stepping on the many aberrant heads, casually harvesting some points.
Originally the factory director paid more attention to Xiahou Yun, but Lin Yebai’s operation was too impressive, inevitably drawing more of his attention.
“My goodness, Brother Lin is truly Brother Lin.” Zhou Yuan was dumbfounded.
All the aberrants were led away by Lin Yebai to perform free-fall exercises, actually making Zhou Yuan and others on the highway much safer.
[Turkey Flavored Crispy Rice]: Now entering the stage is the aberrant diving team from the abyssal radiation world. What good results will they bring? Stay tuned——
[Sweet and Sour Pork Intestine]: This is a group of vigorous athletes, here they come! They rush toward the diving board, directly free-falling. Oh, look at that bald aberrant, its diving posture looks so good!
[Man Upon Man]: Long-awaited diving competition, simply makes one’s blood boil!
[Charcoal Grilled Great Demon Dragon]: All Heavens Food Delivery, fast no matter what you eat
Lin Yebai could no longer look directly at the barrage. He was waiting to see when the factory director would personally enter the battle.
Zhang San’s head was still on the bridge, not carried down by the continuously bridge-jumping aberrants.
The blood pearl from Zhang San was particularly deep in color, very rich. Holding it felt heavy, and Lin Yebai used it to replenish his consumed internal energy.
The aberrants controlled by the factory director all had empty brains, no blood pearls.
They had already consumed too much – even if Lin Yebai didn’t kill them, they would die from self-exhaustion.
“Long-haired young man, I very much appreciate your blade technique. Since you killed Zhang San, how about filling his vacancy?”
“As long as you become workshop head, from now on you’ll be second only to one, above ten thousand……”
The factory director developed a talent-cherishing heart, hoping Lin Yebai would give up resistance early.
Lin Yebai wasn’t moved. Just from the factory director’s behavior, the next few sentences definitely wouldn’t be anything good.
“As long as you kneel down and call me father, from now on you’ll be my godson. This is a good thing Zhang San begged for but couldn’t get!” The factory director’s eyes couldn’t help but become loving.
[I Am a Little Green Dragon]: The factory director is done for. Even if he doesn’t die today, he’ll die eventually
[Guthana the Dark God]: Shocked, this is the first time I’ve actively seen someone make baby become a son! This damn! My fists are clenched
[Peace for a Lifetime]: Hope baby can safely get through today’s crisis, amen
[Super Rich Tangerine Seat]: Zhang San was the most miserable today, sigh
Lin Yebai often felt there were few normal people in this world. Maybe Old Wang was the only one… forget it.
“Young man, why aren’t you responding? Are you so excited you can’t speak???” The factory director smugly touched his triple-layered chin, thinking to himself that his aura was getting stronger and stronger. If this continued, who could withstand it?
[Blind Student]: Do you think the fat guy used Xiahou’s medicine?
[The Ordinary Me]: Who is Xiahou?
[Uchiha Boba Milk Tea]: Dr. Xia. The fat guy probably used it, isn’t he being presumptuous now? Really an unfilial son
[Soft Cat Ears]: Baby, hurry up! In the name of the father, teach him the principles of being human!
[Crispy Shark]: Why doesn’t the factory director have Dr. Xia’s symptoms? Did he take too little medicine?
[Abyss Monarch]: Frowning, thinking darkly: “It’s time to increase the dosage!”
“Quick, call me father.” The factory director was full of anticipation.
He had no children of his own and didn’t think he’d have a son in the future. This knife-wielding boy looked good and was as handsome as himself. Although he looked sickly, his combat endurance was strong – completely good son material!
Lin Yebai finally looked toward the fat factory director, his eyes rich with blood color. This should be a high-level aberrant, right?
