...
Seeing these three, Lin Lang was not at all surprised.
Because their movements in East Gold City had always been under his surveillance.
But the expressions of the three darkened instantly to the extreme—
Clearly, they didn’t want to see Lin Lang here.
Especially Millian!
Last time on Demon God Island, relying on her Eye of the Ancient God, she absorbed the power of Source of Fear: Sespeck!
It was an opportunity that could have skyrocketed her to success!
Unexpectedly, Lin Lang shattered nearly ninety percent of it with one move!
Leaving her efforts in vain!
Now as sworn enemies meet, it was natural for emotions to flare!
But she also dreaded Lin Lang’s power and did not dare to act rashly!
Dean and Tono Taro, although not having directly confronted Lin Lang, were also aware of his terror, hence wore a cautious look!
...
Ishida Yuutarou noticed Tono Taro’s trio’s reactions, his heart also alarmed, couldn’t help but frown and ask:
"What’s the matter, do you know him?"
Ishida Youyue also looked curious and blinked her eyes.
Millian then sighed and said:
"This man is the Eastern person named Lin Lang we just talked about..."
...
"What!"
Upon hearing this!
Ishida Yuutarou’s eyes widened in shock—
Just now Millian and the others recounted their previous encounters on Demon God Island!
They naturally mentioned "Lin Lang," the terrifying expert who could battle the Demon God alone and control the entire situation!
Yet unexpectedly!
This person is actually him!
...
Ishida Yuutarou’s expression changed!
But seeing his sister still affectionately clinging to Lin Lang’s arm.
His gaze flickered, momentarily unsure of what to say.
It was Dean who stood up and politely asked:
"Mr. Lin, are you here on the Beautiful Country Special Agent Bureau’s commission to prevent the birth of the Demon God?"
Lin Lang said:
"Something like that."
He replied casually.
His attention wasn’t on these people at all but was drawn to the dazzling Neon cuisine on the dining table!
So, he took Ishida Youyue’s hand and walked toward the dining table.
This move!
Frightened the four people at the table!
Tono Taro’s hand was already gripping the hilt of the samurai sword, ready to unleash a powerful "Iaijutsu" at any moment!
The other three, Millian, Dean, and Ishida Yuutarou, also secretly activated their superpowers, preparing to counterattack!
But Lin Lang calmly said:
"Why so serious? Many things are just misunderstandings! Sit down together, eat, and chat, it’ll be fine."
The few exchanged glances.
At this moment, Ishida Youyue finally sensed the strange atmosphere—
These people seem to be very afraid of Lin Lang?
But why is that?
...
Ishida Yuutarou, as the host, calmly said:
"Indeed, many misunderstandings occur due to lack of communication. Instead of guessing each other’s intentions, it’s better to sit down and talk things out."
Then he clapped his hands.
From various corners of the restaurant, shadows emerged.
Ishida Yuutarou said:
"Tell the kitchen to add more dishes."
Those shadows gradually vanished again.
Lin Lang noticed—
Those shadows were all ninjas, each at least with S-Class abilities!
This must have been Ishida Yuutarou’s way of showcasing his power!
Unfortunately, Lin Lang did not care at all.
...
As planned, Ishida Youyue sat down with Lin Lang.
After they were seated.
Millian and the others remained silent.
Ishida Youyue cautiously observed for a while.
Although she vaguely sensed something amiss!
She hesitated slightly, but finally gathered the courage and said to Ishida Yuutarou:
"Brother, we left so hastily this morning, we didn’t have a chance to introduce properly."
"My boyfriend, Lin Lang, from Eastern Country..."
"I am serious about him, I hope you can accept him! Please!"
Upon hearing this!
Everyone on the scene was surprised!
Especially Millian, whose expression was complex, perhaps recalling the two Beautiful Country beauties beside Lin Lang before:
Xina and Natalia.
...
Lin Lang had already started eating.
And he was eating with concentration.
Until Ishida Youyue discreetly tugged at him from under the table, gesturing with her eyes to greet her brother proactively!
He casually nodded to Ishida Yuutarou and said:
"Hmm, hello, I look forward to learning from you."
Ishida Yuutarou frowned slightly, not quite understanding Lin Lang’s intent, and said:
"Mr. Lin, why don’t we stop talking in riddles and make things clear."
Lin Lang asked:
"Oh? What do you mean?"
Ishida Yuutarou said:
"Since everyone is here regarding the Demon God, let’s not involve unrelated people. My sister knows nothing about this matter..."
Lin Lang said:
"Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to your sister, our meeting has no conspiracy, it’s all just a coincidence."
...
Ishida Yuutarou frowned, unable to discern if Lin Lang was telling the truth.
However—
Even though Millian and the others spoke of Lin Lang as if he were mythically powerful!
Ishida Yuutarou did not fear being enemies with Lin Lang, for he too had his own confidence!
If Lin Lang truly dared to harm his sister, he would surely kill Lin Lang!
...
Then.
It was Dean, dressed in black robes, who spoke:
"Mr. Lin, we have no quarrel between us, right..."
Lin Lang looked at him:
"Hmm, I never said there was any quarrel between us."
He then said to the cold-faced Tono Taro:
"We just met by chance, that’s all."
Tono Taro remained aloof as always, without reacting.
...
But Millian was visibly uneasy!
Lin Lang’s message was very clear—
I have no quarrel with them!
It’s with you that I have a conflict!
A trace of resentment flashed in Millian’s eyes, but she forced a smile:
"Mr. Lin, what happened last time was a mistake on my part for not recognizing greatness, there was a flaw in my plan, and I almost hurt your people. I apologize for that..."
Lin Lang only smiled:
"Oh? And does this time’s plan have any flaws?"
Millian was speechless—
Flaws?
Lin Lang’s appearance was already the biggest flaw!
...
Lin Lang was not prepared to let her off easily, and further questioned:
"Then tell me about your plans!"
"At least let me know what you’ve been so busy with, drifting around each day?"
Millian and Dean both looked at Ishida Yuutarou, seemingly waiting for his decision.
Ishida Yuutarou said:
"Perhaps our goals are the same? Why doesn’t Mr. Lin go first."
Lin Lang said:
"Goals? My goal is definitely different from yours, I want to take away that Source of Darkness."
As soon as these words were spoken!
Everyone’s expressions changed!
And Tono Taro’s reaction was especially strong—
His gaze turned cold in an instant!
In the blink of an eye!
The samurai sword in his hand had already been half-drawn!
And the reason it was only half-drawn!
Is because Lin Lang, as if foreseeing this, manipulated a strand of Spiritual Qi to hold his sword down in advance!
...
Tono Taro tried several times to draw the sword, but felt as if a mountain had descended upon it, it was so heavy he couldn’t move it at all!
Only then did he realize that Lin Lang’s strength was far superior to his!
But he still spoke firmly:
"The Demon God must be born! No one can take the Source of Darkness from me!"
That feeling!
As if Lin Lang was a robber coveting others’ treasures, willing to stop at nothing!
Lin Lang could only sigh helplessly:
"Sigh, you all really misunderstood me!"
"I’m not a heartless person, I just want to know your motives."
"If your motives are reasonable enough, I not only won’t stop you, I might even help you!"
At these words, everyone fell silent again.
Lin Lang smiled and continued:
"If you release the Demon God just to cause senseless slaughter and destruction of lives... then I certainly won’t allow it."
Everyone frowned.
"If releasing the Demon God is to increase your own power and to rule the world or something... then forget it!"
"Because that motive is boring!"
"Or, releasing the Demon God won’t be of any use. Because above the Demon God... there’s still me."
Hearing this, Millian’s expression slightly changed.
Dean and Ishida Yuutarou, however, pretended to stay calm and took a sip of tea.
"But if!"
Lin Lang turned to look at Tono Taro.
"It’s because you have some kind of deal with the Demon God..."
"For example, using the Source of Darkness to rescue your beloved..."
"Then that’s different."
"I quite admire passionate men because I am one myself."
Instantly!
Tono Taro’s face changed dramatically, a look of extreme surprise appeared in his eyes:
"How did you know..."
What?
Lin Lang guessed correctly?
Everyone instinctively looked at Tono Taro!
Tono Taro was like a fragile man suddenly stripped of his tough facade!
He lowered his head, speaking sorrowfully:
"That’s right... I have a deal with the Demon God. The Demon God took my wife and told me to bring it the Source of Darkness before it will release her."
The others also realized Tono Taro’s motive for the first time!
Who would have thought this cold man, who always wore a stony face as if the world owed him millions, was actually so passionate!
It’s a mystery how Lin Lang guessed it!
In fact, Lin Lang used the power of the Law of Cause and Effect!
He found an especially striking causal line on Tono Taro’s body!
After tracing it back!
He found that this causal line entered a strange space and was connected to a beautiful woman!
The woman was in a deep sleep in the space, like a princess awaiting awakening.
One side is a princess trapped in a dragon’s den!
The other side is a fearless warrior!
The storyline was quite easy to unravel.
...
As for the motives of the others, they also became clearer—
Millian wanted to release the Demon God to use the Eye of the Ancient God to absorb more power!
Dean aimed to obtain the Source of Darkness to awaken a sealed Demon God in the Ancient Dark Church Court!
As for why Ishida Yuutarou was involved!
It’s most likely that Millian, Dean, and Tono Taro promised him great benefits!
...
Tono Taro stood up and bowed to Lin Lang:
"So, I beg you not to stop me! No matter what, I must save my wife!"
Ishida Youyue was also moved by Tono Taro, murmuring:
"What a great love! Lin Lang, if possible, please help him with my brother!"
Lin Lang shrugged:
"Since you put it that way, how could I refuse? After all, I said it, I am a man of great passion myself..."
...
At this moment, Tono Taro fully trusted Lin Lang!
Or perhaps, he had no choice but to trust!
Thus, he voluntarily disclosed the entire plan to Lin Lang:
"This time, we will release two Demon Gods at the same time!"
"One of them is the Flying Head Monster I made a deal with!"
"According to our deal, I will use the Source of Darkness to assist its birth, and it will release my wife!"
"I don’t know who the other one is."
"But by then, two Demon Gods will provide two Sources of Darkness."
"One to be taken away by Dean."
"One to be kept by Ishida Yuutarou."
"As for Millian, she wants the power of the Demon God!"
Lin Lang nodded secretly, everything was as he had guessed.
He then asked:
"So, when will the Demon Gods appear?"
Tono Taro looked up, gazed at the sky:
"In one hour, at East Gold Shrine, we will awaken the first Demon God!"
