Chapter 804 Not even willing to risk one's life
With the arrival of the Nightmare Palace assassins, the lively atmosphere of Qingfeng Tower has faded.
The once magnificent decorations were now in ruins; not only were the windows out of shape, but even the wooden floors had several holes in them.
The entire hall was filled with the stench of blood.
Han Jiji hid in the corner, afraid to make a sound. He wanted to run away, but he was afraid that Lin Ping would deduct his wages.
Between money and life, he chose the latter.
There's no way around it; that's the fate of wage earners. They often have to compromise in order to keep their jobs.
Of course, Lin Ping wasn't a bloodsucker capitalist; he just wanted Han Jiji to take responsibility, and he wouldn't skimp on her monthly allowance.
Lin Ping cursed inwardly, "If you're so capable, stay and pay up."
If it weren't for a lack of strength, these words would naturally be shouted out loud.
Now that Jiao Mujiao and the others have escaped, the great battle is about to come to an end, and Lin Ping's mood has eased a little.
At most, it's just replacing a floor and a few tables; compared to the ticket revenue earned these past few days, it's a drop in the ocean.
Inside the hall, dozens of Black Iron Guards formed a circle, observing the actions of everyone inside.
They had witnessed the great battle just now, and the only word to describe it was shock.
They felt a sense of defeat; the Black Iron Guards, once hailed as an invincible legion, were utterly worthless in front of these experts.
As soldiers, they still have the fighting spirit in their bones, and they will not back down before receiving Bai Tiantian's orders.
Inside the inner circle, Kang Jinlong, covered in blood, used all his strength to wrap Li Hai in his body.
Those thick, muscular arms were like tree roots with malignant tumors, so hard they were terrifying.
"If it were me, I'm afraid I would have turned into a pool of blood by now." Lin Ping shook his head and clicked his tongue repeatedly, even feeling a little worried for Li Hai.
"With your meager strength, you think you can kill me?" Li Hai replied coldly.
Even so, his expression was not good.
The fact that he couldn't immediately break free from Kang Jinlong's restraints proved that he was in trouble, or at the very least, that he was weaker than his opponent.
Thanks to his abundant internal energy, Li Hai was not seriously injured by Kang Jinlong; he was just unable to escape for the time being.
As time passed, Kang Jinlong's power gradually diminished.
Having had his heart pierced, the fact that he has managed to hold on until now is beyond the limits of human endurance.
"Jiaomu Jiao, I did my best..." Kang Jinlong's pupils slowly faded, leaving only his huge shell lying on Li Hai's body.
The reason he was able to hold out for so long was because Jiao Mujiao and the others had not yet left.
Now that he has successfully restrained Li Hai, his mission is complete, and the last breath that remained in his body through willpower dissipates.
"Hmph, you're courting death." Li Hai kicked him away and rushed out the window, clearly intending to chase after Jiao Mujiao and the others.
"Now, let's go!" Lin Ping said urgently in Xia Linglong's ear.
With the defeat of the Azure Dragon Sect and the departure of Li Hai, experts from various countries' delegations were injured one after another, and now Chu Rujun has become the strongest king.
If we don't leave now, when will we? Are we going to wait to be surrounded by thousands of Black Iron Guards?
"You must be careful in everything you do. I will make Wu Kingdom strong in the shortest possible time. Then come home with me." Xia Linglong said reluctantly, but in the end she still chose to leave.
Ordinary Black Iron Guards are nothing more than brave men; their lightness skills are nowhere near Xia Linglong's.
"Chase them! We can't let them get away," Black Panther said urgently.
Bai Tiantian had given him an order: even after the list of extraordinary people was published, the delegations from various countries, especially the Wu Kingdom delegation, were not allowed to leave smoothly.
This list of extraordinary individuals is most closely related to the Wu Kingdom. Once the delegation leaves, it would be tantamount to releasing a tiger back into the mountains.
Although Bai Tiantian believed that Lin Ping was just a general who knew how to steal credit, she did not dare to underestimate his other abilities.
The best way to deal with this kind of person is to win them over.
However, Lin Ping has a complicated relationship with the royal family of Wu Kingdom. Detaining the delegation is a good way to cooperate with Lin Ping.
"Anyone who dares to take a step forward is going against me, Lin Wuqing!" Thinking of Xia Linglong's safety, Lin Ping couldn't care less about anything else.
Whether his identity is exposed or he is killed by Bai Tiantian, it doesn't matter.
A few days ago, Black Panther, together with four other commanders of the Black Iron Guard, still couldn't defeat Lin Ping, and he knew how terrifying the other party's strength was.
Moreover, he also knew that Lin Ping was Bai Tiantian's honored guest, and that he would need Bai Tiantian's permission to make a move against him.
Bai Tiantian's gaze was cold, seemingly expressing dissatisfaction with Lin Ping's actions.
He knew that Lin Ping had once been the chief bannerman of the Wu Kingdom, and even though he had been driven out, he still had some old feelings for the Wu Kingdom.
Bai Tiantian likes men with flesh and blood, but she doesn't like people who are stubborn and inflexible.
The reason for the anger was that Lin Ping was doing something foolish.
"Young Master Lin, I'm sorry." Black Panther first tried to be polite, then his heavy greatsword came flying towards him.
"You can't beat me, give up." Lin Ping went all out, appearing directly behind Black Panther and kicking him away.
Although the kick couldn't shatter the armor, it did leave Black Panther House sprawled on the ground, looking utterly disheveled.
"Attack together!" Black Panther knew he was no match for Lin Ping, so he tried to outnumber him.
Dozens of Black Iron Guards swarmed over, their massive swords packed tightly together, giving Lin Ping no chance to escape.
Lin Ping took the initiative and pulled a bomb out of his clothes, sticking it between dozens of giant swords.
Bang!
The bomb exploded, sending sparks flying.
The Black Iron Guard could not withstand the terrifying impact, and all the heavy greatswords slipped from its grasp.
"Such a powerful explosive?" Bai Tiantian stared at Lin Ping with a puzzled look, her curiosity about him growing even stronger.
As a general, he had naturally seen and possessed a lot of explosives, but the explosives he had were not very powerful, and he mostly used them as firecrackers to scare people.
He had never imagined that explosives could be so powerful, and his eyes were filled with greed.
"Want to come again?" Lin Ping asked coldly.
Faced with the earnest Lin Ping, these dozens of people were clearly no match for him.
Black Panther stood up in a disheveled state and replied, "We are indeed no match for Young Master Lin, but what about the thousand crossbowmen outside the door?"
As he clapped his hands incessantly, Qingfeng Tower was surrounded by archers.
"Stop!" Bai Tiantian, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, finally spoke up. "Let them go."
"But...but..." Black Panther tried to explain.
"This is an order!" Bai Tiantian revealed a hint of anger.
First of all, the Wu Kingdom delegation has already gone far away, and even if the city gates are sealed, it may not be able to stop them.
Secondly, Bai Tiantian saw value in Lin Ping again and didn't want things to get too tense with him.
"Hehehe, thank you for sparing my life, General." Lin Ping said with a grin, treating it as a minor incident.
He was so engrossed in joking around that he didn't realize Meng Qingge was sweating bullets for him. After hearing Bai Tiantian's pardon, she collapsed to the ground, overjoyed at having survived a disaster.
"Miss, did you see that? He's willing to risk his life for that girl from Wu Kingdom." Yun'er pouted and kept badmouthing Lin Ping in front of Meng Qingge.
