Chapter 16: The Scent of a Conspiracy
Seeing the resolve of death on Lin Yuâs face, a sneer flashed in Qin Xianâs eyes. He knew Lin Yu wouldnât flee anymore.
Lin Yu himself was quite tricky. With that teleportation artifact in his possession, he could escape as soon as the Qin family shows up.
By that time, with the vastness of the world, the Qin family would need to expend enormous time and resources to track down Lin Yu again.
What a pityâeveryone has weaknesses and Lin Feng was Lin Yuâs weakness. Did he think staying behind to attract the Qin familyâs attention would lead the Qin family to spare Lin Feng, someone irrelevant?
He was mistaken! Qin Xianâs true target was Lin Feng. Although it seemed Lin Yu was being labeled a Void cultist, the real calculation was aimed at Lin Feng!
After killing Lin Yu, could the foster child of a Void cultist still participate in the college entrance examination? Furthermore, Qin Xian had speculated that the Arcane Source was with Lin Feng!
In this world, no one knew the Arcane Source better than the Qin family, since it was cultivated by the Qin family. Human-awakened professions could not equip the Arcane Source.
But Lin Feng, being an SS-level Non-Specialist, could. In the past two days, through investigations into Lin Feng, Qin Xian discovered Lin Feng had leveled up four times in just two or three days, which further confirmed this point.
Qin Xian looked at the despairing Lin Yu and instructed indifferently, âKill him.â
With Qin Xianâs command, many Qin family experts charged towards Lin Yu! Though there were still civilians around, they showed no hesitation. They were loyal to Qin Xian, and only Qin Xianâs orders mattered to themâŠ.
Even if standing before them was not Lin Yu but the Regent, they would attack without hesitation!
âŠâŠ.
The Qin familyâs actions in the urban area, leading to countless civilian casualties, immediately alarmed the entire Donghai City.
âWhatâs going on!?â Meng Zhou, the commander of the Donghai City Police Department, was both shocked and furious. He urgently gathered his subordinates to head to the incident location, angrily shouting.
He had just received news that there was fighting in the urban area, resulting in numerous casualties!
âIt seems there was a Void cultist in the city center, and someone started chasing them, leading to a fight.â An official responsible for police operations looked at the police systemâs notification and spoke dumbfoundedly.
âA Void cultist!?â Meng Zhou was taken aback and then asked with confusion, âWhy didnât I know about this!?â
âIt appears to be⊠a direct order from the Empireâs Police Department.â
âWhy was I not informed!?â Meng Zhouâs eyes widened in disbelief.
As the commander of the Donghai City Police Department, with a direct order from the Police Department regarding a Void cultist in Donghai City, this should have been an extremely important major operation.
He, as the commander, was entirely in the dark!
No one could answer this questionâŠ. Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
From beginning to end, this matter reeked of strangeness and oddity.
He smelled the scent of a conspiracy, but now was not the time to dwell on these matters. Meng Zhou led the powerhouses of the police department, rushing to the scene of the incident!
A few days ago, nearby Donghai City, a Void cultist had also conducted a sacrificial ceremony causing an entire town was massacred.
Governor Chen Beiguo and the heads of the Police Department, including major figures like Zhou Gu, had all gone to handle it. Now in Donghai City, he held the highest rank within the police system.
If this matter wasnât handled well, it wasnât just himâGovernor Chen Beiguo might also be affected!
As someone handpicked and cultivated by Chen Beiguo, Meng Zhou could not allow such a situation to occur!
âŠâŠâŠ
Boomââ!!!
Terrifying power erupted continuously, turning the entire urban area into a deadly battlefield full of carnage!
Faced with the siege of many powerhouses, Lin Yuâs eyes were filled with determination. His body burst forth, charging directly towards Qin Xian! He couldnât escape, so he might as well go all out and make a desperate stand!
To take control of Qin Xian! Qin Xian was the young master of the Qin family. If he could seize Qin Xian, with Qin Xian as a hostage, perhaps there might still be a turnaround!
It must be said, Lin Yu was indeed a former major general of the Empire, once a rising star in the military.
This time, Qin Xian had brought ten level 50 experts. Yet, even with so many level 50 experts working together, they couldnât stop Lin Yu. Lin Yuâs body, like a meteor, was unstoppable!
âCourting death!â Seeing through Lin Yuâs intentions, Qiu Bo, who hadnât acted until now, had a flash of chilling killing intent in his eyes.
His body suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and a massive hexagram magic array appeared behind him.
Within the magic array, countless red rune chains emerged, directly sealing the space around Lin Yu, tightly controlling him in mid-air, unable to move at all!
In the next moment, in front of Lin Yu, a flaming spear condensed, ready to pierce his chest.
At that moment, an angry shout rang out.
âStop!!!!!â
