Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold

Chapter 351 - 281: Persuasion by Force (Part 3)



Zou Limu turned to look at the old Daoist, his expression serious as he said:

"What you’re saying is unfounded. Without concrete evidence, how can you arbitrarily convict someone?"

Right at this moment, a commotion stirred in the crowd!

A timid figure, Little Sycophant, stood out, his eyes evasive, his voice trembling as he said:

"I... I can prove it’s true."

"This beast disguised as a human found me yesterday, asking me to send word to Lin Lang, telling him to escape quickly."

"But at the time I thought she was joking, so I didn’t take it seriously and didn’t do anything!"

"I never expected..."

Hearing these words from Little Sycophant, Lin Lang suddenly came to a realization!

He instantly understood that this Little Mermaid came to repay a debt of gratitude—

Because he had casually saved her life once before!

So when she heard that people from the Golden Dragon Cave were coming to cause trouble for him, she rushed to warn him despite the danger.

But she didn’t know that with his ability and understanding of the situation, he didn’t need her to act!

Thus, Lin Lang couldn’t help but sigh inwardly:

Such a foolish fish!

Coming recklessly like this not only didn’t help but also put herself in a dangerous situation!

However!

Even a demon beast knows how to repay kindness!

What kind of face do those like Little Sycophant have?

...

Wang Dahai, hearing Little Sycophant, shouted loudly as if he had seized hard evidence:

"So that’s how it is, it seems Lin Lang is undoubtedly a traitor!"

The crowd, upon hearing this, exploded in discussions all around.

"I never thought Lin Lang would be such a person. To think we had high hopes for him before."

"Exactly, colluding with fierce beasts is a grave offense, it cannot be condoned!"

Voices of doubt and accusation surged towards Lin Lang.

...

And at this moment!

The old Daoist impatiently waved his hand and shouted:

"Enough, neither Lin Lang nor this beast will be spared by me!"

With that!

He raised his hand and shot a spiritual power beam at the dying Little Mermaid!

The spiritual power, like a sharp blade, sliced through the air with a "hiss," heading straight for the Little Mermaid!

It was about to take her life!

"Hold on!"

Zou Limu yelled, his figure flashed like lightning, instantly appearing in front of the Little Mermaid.

His hands moved rapidly, performing a hand technique, with Purple Qi swirling!

Colliding with the old Daoist’s spiritual power!

In an instant!

Spiritual power scattered, and lights flickered!

A powerful wave of energy spread outward, causing everyone to instinctively step back.

However!

In just a few moves, Zou Limu was clearly at a disadvantage.

Though his combat power level matched the old Daoist’s at SS-Class, the spiritual power system cultivated by cultivators was more profound, providing a natural advantage over martial artists in actual combat.

Just like at the same combat power level, martial artists, with stronger physiques and combat techniques, could surpass superpower users.

Zou Limu frowned slightly, pondering a strategy.

He was well aware of the old Daoist’s formidable strength, knowing that with his current power, protecting the Little Mermaid and Lin Lang was far from enough.

But at this moment!

His mind had only one thought: he must not allow the old Daoist to act recklessly on the Special Agent Bureau’s grounds.

...

"What do you mean by this?"

The old Daoist, arrogant and disdainful, eyed everyone as if they were ants.

Zou Limu, with a grave expression, said:

"The matter hasn’t been fully clarified, why is the True Person so eager to act? Such disregard for life, it’s not the way of the righteous."

...

"Enough!"

But!

Just as Zou Limu gathered his courage again, ready to fight the old Daoist to the death.

Lin Lang, with a calm and determined face, stepped out steadily:

"Elder Zou, there’s no need to waste words with him."

"Lin Lang!"

Xina, full of worry, blurted out.

She couldn’t bear to let Lin Lang face such a formidable opponent, her heart filled with unease and fear.

Everyone’s gaze turned to Lin Lang, filled with surprise, doubt, and concern.

Zou Limu also paused, looking at Lin Lang, unsure of his intentions.

The old Daoist stared at Lin Lang, a mocking smile on his face, and shouted:

"Wretch, kneel and accept death quickly, I might let you die without suffering if I’m in a good mood!"

Lin Lang’s heart burned with rage but he calmly said:

"This is between us. Why drag innocent people into it? Such actions are mad and ruthless!"

The old Daoist laughed coldly, scoffing:

"Innocent? Were my disciples not innocent when they died? And you, a group of ants, how can you compare to my disciples? In my eyes, your fates are nothing but fleeting dust!"

Lin Lang shook his head in disappointment and said:

"I wonder what you cultivators truly pursue, for such disregard for life defies all reason."

After speaking, Lin Lang slowly extended his hand.

Seeing this, the old Daoist assumed Lin Lang was about to attack him, tensed his whole body, quickly circulated his spiritual power, ready to defend!

That stance seemed ready to launch a fierce counterattack at any moment!

However!

To everyone’s surprise—

A gentle and mysterious power gradually emanated from Lin Lang, like a soft spring breeze, enveloping the injured gatekeeper, Zhuo Yong, and the dying Little Mermaid.

This was Lin Lang’s Power of the Law of Life!

Nurtured by this miraculous power, their injuries healed rapidly, visible to the naked eye.

The guard and Zhuo Yong, once pale and weak, regained color, their wounds quickly closing.

The Little Mermaid’s scarred body gradually became smooth again, she slowly opened her eyes, filled with confusion and wonder.

...

"This is!"

Witnessing this scene, everyone was astonished, their faces filled with disbelief.

"What kind of ability is this! The healing effect is so powerful?"

Someone in the crowd couldn’t help but exclaim.

Even Zou Limu and the old Daoist were deeply shocked by what they saw.

They had never seen such a miraculous and powerful force!

For a moment, they were at a loss.

And immediately!

Lin Lang’s gaze, full of murderous intent, locked onto the old Daoist, his aura suddenly shifting, unleashing domain power in an instant.

Lin Lang used the Law of Space, his whole being like a phantom, suddenly vanishing from where he stood!

The next second!

He appeared in front of the old Daoist!

The old Daoist, shocked, couldn’t react in time.

Lin Lang, without hesitation, delivered a ferocious punch!

His fist carried the power of the Law of Power.

This punch, imbued with destructive force, hit the old Daoist directly.

With a muffled sound, the old Daoist flew backward like a launched cannonball, disappearing from sight in an instant.

Then!

Lin Lang’s figure flickered, chasing after him.

...

In the distance, several muffled booms echoed, as if the earth itself trembled from the impact.

...

Moments later.

Lin Lang returned, calm and composed.

With a serene expression, he acted as if nothing had happened.

Zou Limu hurried forward and asked:

"What about the old Daoist?"

Lin Lang casually replied:

"I spoke with him about some reason, and feeling guilty, he left."

Then Lin Lang turned his head, his gaze settling on the Little Mermaid.
