Free Web NovelChapter 357: Chapter 357: Making a Name for Oneself
Lin Yun’s words were utterly domineering. Ordinarily, if Lin Yun had said such a thing, these arrogant Direct Disciples of the Flawless Palace would have surely scoffed at him. Now, however, having all witnessed Lin Yun’s immense Combat Power firsthand, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.
The face of the man fighting Lin Yun shifted from pale to livid, and he was rendered speechless. This was only natural; from the beginning of the fight until now, Lin Yun had displayed nothing but overwhelming strength.
Moreover, throughout the battle so far, Lin Yun hadn’t even brought out his Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear, nor had he unleashed his Battle Intent.
’I’ve already made up my mind. If I’m going to put them in their place, I might as well do it thoroughly and all at once,’ he decided. Lin Yun looked at the man and the four others behind him and said coolly, "All of you can come at me together."
Hearing this, the faces of all five men darkened. A wave of anger swelled within them; Lin Yun’s words were a blatant provocation, a clear sign that he looked down on them.
As Direct Disciples of the Flawless Palace, they were envied as geniuses by the outside world. Within the Flawless Palace, they were revered by tens of thousands of Outer and Inner Sect Disciples.
Yet now, Lin Yun actually wanted to fight them one against five. And from his tone, it was clear he didn’t take them seriously in the slightest.
If Lin Yun had been one of the Direct Disciples from the first echelon, or even a Core Disciple, perhaps they could have accepted it. But Lin Yun was merely someone who had joined the Flawless Palace a few months ago. How could they possibly stand for this?
"You’ve gone too far!" the five men roared, each drawing their Spirit Soldiers and launching a fierce assault on Lin Yun.
Watching the five calmly, Lin Yun’s Space Ring flashed, and the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear appeared in his hand. With the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear in his grasp, Lin Yun’s entire aura became even more imposing, radiating a sharp, cutting edge.
One against five. Before, perhaps no one would have thought Lin Yun could gain an advantage. But now, no one dared to say he would lose. In fact, many were eagerly anticipating the sight of Lin Yun thrashing the five of them.
Completely enraged, the five of them now attacked without any restraint. They had forgotten that they were in the Flawless Palace, and that Lin Yun was also a Disciple of the Flawless Palace.
In their eyes, Lin Yun was now an enemy who had viciously trampled on the pride they held most dear.
Facing the attacks of all five men, Lin Yun brandished the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear. He didn’t use the Thunderfire Bombardment, merely unleashing the Red Flame Spear Technique.
Dense flames blazed upon the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear. Lin Yun fiercely thrust it at the man in the lead. Startled by the sudden attack, the man hastily dodged to the side, barely avoiding the blow.
However, this was only the beginning. Switching from defense to offense, Lin Yun charged directly into their encirclement. He thrust the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear out again and again, each strike incomparably precise and as fast as Lightning.
"Today, I’ll teach you a lesson. There are some women you can’t even think about," Lin Yun said coldly amidst the battle. As his words fell, he seized an opportunity, and with a sudden thrust, his Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear pierced straight through one man’s thigh.
The spear went straight through. Blood instantly gushed from the man’s thigh. Without a shred of pity, having heavily wounded him, Lin Yun flicked the tip of his spear and sent the man flying over ten meters away, eliminating him from the fight.
Lin Yun’s intention in fighting them wasn’t to take their lives. He just wanted them to know that he wasn’t some pushover that anyone could mess with. Especially when it came to the things he cherished—no one was allowed to touch them.
Having instantly injured one of them, Lin Yun’s assault grew even more ferocious. In the eyes of the many watching Direct Disciples, Lin Yun was now single-handedly chasing down and thrashing four other Direct Disciples.
Completely unable to withstand Lin Yun’s onslaught, the four of them managed a few weak counterattacks at first, but soon they were reduced to fleeing in a panic with their heads covered. It was then that Lin Yun once again unleashed his special technique: the Dog Beating Spear Technique.
Wielding the Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear, he gave the remaining four a sound beating. They could only continuously shield their heads. The scene didn’t look like a spar between disciples; it was more like an elder disciplining his juniors.
"You dare touch my woman? I dare you to try it!"
"Still running? Let’s see where you can run! Today, I’m going to teach you a good lesson: of all the women in this world, some are people you can’t even dream of touching!"
"Hey! Why are you hiding behind them? Get out here! You’re the ringleader, the most detestable one of all. You get ten extra hits!"
It had turned into a completely one-sided thrashing. Watching Lin Yun chase the four Direct Disciples around with his Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear, it wasn’t just Lu Bingning and Lan Xi; even the few female disciples watching from the side couldn’t help but cover their mouths to stifle their giggles.
At the same time, the eyes of these female Direct Disciples shone with a peculiar light as they looked at Lin Yun. On the Celestial Spirit Continent, what woman didn’t like a powerful man?
After a full quarter of an hour of this thrashing, when Lin Yun finally stopped, the four men’s faces were swollen like pigs’ heads. They no longer resembled Direct Disciples of the Flawless Palace in the slightest.
"Today was just a warning," Lin Yun said to the four of them. "If I ever find out you’re getting ideas about my woman again, you won’t get off so lightly next time."
Hearing this, the four of them, their faces swollen beyond recognition, could only nod continuously to show they understood, as they couldn’t even speak clearly. They were scared, truly scared. Who else in the Flawless Palace would chase someone down with an Earth Spirit Soldier and beat them like a father beating his son?
What was most infuriating was that, despite being so humiliatingly beaten, the four of them had been completely powerless to fight back.
Seeing their state, Lin Yun put away his Demon Bone Heaven-Dominating Spear, shot the four of them one last vicious glare, and then walked over to Lu Bingning and Lan Xi.
Seeing Lin Yun approach, Lan Xi chuckled. "Oh, you. Why are you so violent? Aren’t you afraid their masters will come looking for trouble?"
"Why would they? Was I wrong? I don’t want other men eyeing my woman all day. It’s better to nip some threats in the bud," Lin Yun said with a smile.
In truth, neither Lu Bingning nor Lan Xi had any intention of blaming Lin Yun. This was their man, and the fact that he was so protective of them made them both very happy. Seeing him get jealous, in particular, filled their hearts with an indescribable sweetness.
As if no one else was around, the two women linked their arms with Lin Yun’s, and the three of them leisurely walked away.
Watching the trio’s retreating figures, the Direct Disciples who hadn’t left yet all thought the same thing. ’Looks like a real monster has arrived at the Flawless Palace this time.’
"This kid is really something. I just wonder if he’s strong enough to challenge those two freaks," a fair-skinned young man in the crowd remarked with a slight smile.
Hearing him, a young woman beside him said, "Senior Brother, aren’t you overthinking it? He can’t even compare to you, so how could he possibly challenge those two freaks?"
"That’s hard to say," the young man replied with a smile before turning and leaving.
This young man was one of the twelve Direct Disciples in the first echelon. Unexpectedly, he too had been in the crowd watching Lin Yun’s fight.
In any case, with this one battle, Lin Yun had made a name for himself among the Direct Disciples and proven his own strength.
