At that moment, Elder Mu from the Baili Clan approached from a distance.
“Prince Yi, I’m willing to fight without reward. That bastard killed many from my Baili Clan. I only seek revenge!” Elder Mu said venomously.
Prince Yi turned to him, his voice cold, “Elder Mu, you deliberately told me about this kid having Ksitigarbha Bodhi Fruits to use me against him, didn’t you? Quite the clever plan.”
“This… Prince Yi, I spoke the truth. He did obtain eight Ksitigarbha Bodhi Fruits,” Elder Mu said with a forced laugh, fearing Prince Yi’s blame.
“Enough. Stay here. When he comes out, perform well to atone for your schemes,” Prince Yi commanded.
“Yes! Yes!” Elder Mu nodded repeatedly, forcing a smile.
With Elder Mu’s addition, the group now had four Tribulation Realm experts, plus Prince Yi and the elite royal clan team, forming a formidable lineup.
“With four Tribulation Realm experts, no matter how strong that kid is, he’s no match!” the bald elder beside Prince Yi said with a grin.
Watching from a distance, Elder Yan’s face grew anxious.
“This is bad. Four Tribulation Realm experts! If Lin Yun comes out, he’s got no chance,” Elder Yan muttered, staring at the lake’s edge with deep worry.
Boom!
Suddenly, the lake’s surface erupted, and a figure burst from the water.
“It’s that kid!”
“Stop him!”
Whoosh.
Prince Yi and his group shot into the air, surrounding Lin Yun, cutting off any escape.
“Trouble! Big trouble!” Elder Yan’s face paled.
“No, I have to help him!”
With that, Elder Yan rushed toward the battlefield.
Above the Silver Lake.
As soon as Lin Yun emerged from the water, Prince Yi and his team surrounded him.
“Kid, you’ve got some guts, daring to come out. I thought you’d hide in the water until the spiritual repository closed. Didn’t expect you to show up so soon,” Prince Yi glared at Lin Yun with venom.
“I came out to give you another beating, of course,” Lin Yun said, a smile on his face.
“You…”
Prince Yi’s pupils contracted, his face blazing with fury.
How dare he!
Prince Yi couldn’t fathom how this kid, on the brink of death, had the audacity to provoke him like this.
Elder Mu stared at Lin Yun, sneering, “Kid, opposing us is one thing, but to speak so insolently to Prince Yi and offend him? You really don’t know how to spell ‘death’!”
“Oh, isn’t this Elder Mu from the Baili Clan? You barely escaped, yet instead of hiding, you’re here colluding with Prince Yi?” Lin Yun said, smiling at Elder Mu.
Elder Mu laughed loudly, “Haha, that’s right. We’ve teamed up. With four Tribulation Realm experts, plus Prince Yi, no matter how capable you are, you’re dead today!”
“Good. Saves me the trouble of hunting you down. I can deal with you all at once,” Lin Yun said, smacking his lips with a grin.
Then, he turned to Prince Yi.
“Prince Yi, I’ll give you a chance to beg for mercy. Apologize, admit your fault, and leave, and I’ll spare you,” Lin Yun said, arms crossed, a playful smile on his face.
His words sent Prince Yi trembling with rage, his pent-up anger ready to explode!
“You little mongrel, still talking tough on death’s door? Attack!!!”
Prince Yi roared, burning with fury.
He couldn’t wait to slaughter Lin Yun to vent his rage.
Boom.
At that moment, Elder Yan sped in from the distance.
“Lin Yun, I’m here to help! Break through their encirclement, and I’ll cover your retreat!” Elder Yan shouted.
Elder Mu quickly interjected, “Prince Yi, this old man is that kid’s accomplice. He helped him when my Baili Clan tried to kill him before, and now he’s here to help again.”
Prince Yi’s eyes narrowed, “He wants to help? Laughable. He’s just rushing to his death. Since he’s here to die, kill him too!”
“Elder Yan…”
Seeing Elder Yan charge in, Lin Yun felt a surge of gratitude.
After all, Prince Yi’s side had four Tribulation Realm experts, plus himself and his elite subordinates—an overwhelmingly powerful lineup!
For Elder Yan to dare rush in under these circumstances took immense courage.
“Elder Yan, thank you for helping last time. This time, there’s no need to put yourself at risk,” Lin Yun said earnestly.
With a fierce wave of his hand, Lin Yun called out.
“Big Bear, come out!”
Whoosh.
The metal bear appeared out of thin air.
“Master!” Big Bear saluted Lin Yun.
“Big Bear, deal with these people,” Lin Yun said with a smile, his words light.
Then, Lin Yun stood with hands behind his back, ready to watch Big Bear take action.
If there were a table and tea, Lin Yun could have brewed a cup, sat down, and sipped while awaiting the outcome.
It was all up to Big Bear.
“Yes!”
Receiving the order, Big Bear lunged forward, swinging its massive, millstone-sized paw with staggering power, aiming straight for the bald elder at the forefront.
Whoosh!
Big Bear’s paw tore through the air, causing space to tremble and collapse, its force utterly astonishing.
The bald elder’s face blanched at the sight of Big Bear’s attack. He hurriedly unleashed his full strength to defend.
Bang!
A tremendous collision erupted, and the Tribulation Realm bald elder was sent flying, teeth knocked out, blood spraying from his mouth. He crashed uncontrollably into the shore, creating a deep crater.
“Pfft! Pfft!”
In the pit, the bald elder spat blood in torrents, barely clinging to life, his injuries critical, his combat ability gone, with only a sliver of breath left.
No joke—Lin Yun couldn’t withstand Big Bear’s attacks, let alone them.
With his defense, Lin Yun could endure a bit longer against Big Bear.
But this bald elder could barely survive a single blow!
“This… this…”
Prince Yi, Elder Mu, and the others were stunned.
“How is this thing so strong!” Elder Mu finally blurted out, unable to hold back his shock.
Boom!
Big Bear lunged again, swinging its paws repeatedly, instantly sending a dozen of the Tianqian royal clan’s elite flying, killing them on the spot, including several Transcending Tribulation Realm cultivators!
