The Entry-plundering Demon Hunter

Chapter 262: Chapter 259: Weakness? Heart Demon? Lin Dazhi?

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH—

On the city streets.

Lin Yi moved like a phantom, weaving through streets and alleyways.

After a long while, he stopped at a crosswalk.

The traffic light was still functioning normally.

It was currently a red light.

The moon in the night sky cast a brilliant glow.

Lin Yi stood there alone, staring at his surroundings.

’Something’s wrong. How can there be no one here?’

’No Demon Beasts, no other beasts, not even a single student here on a mission?’

He had been moving through the city for over twenty minutes.

Yet Lin Yi hadn’t encountered a single living soul.

It felt increasingly strange, as if he had truly entered a deserted city.

In the entire city, there was only Lin Yi...

This eerie silence made Lin Yi feel extremely uneasy.

He would have felt more at ease if the city were teeming with Demon Beasts.

But now...

Lin Yi paused for less than a minute.

He once again used his Body Technique and ran off in another direction.

Street after street.

Residential complex after residential complex.

Lin Yi even checked every single shop.

Just like before, there were no people and no Demon Beasts.

The entire city was empty and silent, devoid of any signs of life.

After he had been running for another ten-plus minutes, a figure suddenly leaped into his line of sight.

Lin Yi was delighted. ’Finally, I see someone!’

In this silent city, encountering anyone—even a Demon Beast—was a great relief.

Lin Yi hurriedly ran toward the figure.

When he was less than five meters away from the figure, he stopped abruptly.

He stared at the person standing under the streetlight with a look of disbelief.

"Brother, what’s wrong? Don’t you recognize me?"

The speaker was none other than Lin Yu.

He was wearing a Third Middle School uniform, his face beaming with a cheerful, sunny smile.

His eyes held a look of sincerity and innocence.

Standing under the streetlight, he gazed at Lin Yi...

The moment Lin Yi saw Lin Yu, his mind went blank. It was as if his brain had crashed. After a long moment, he asked, "What are you doing in the New District?"

"Brother, you have the nerve to ask? You came to the New District by yourself without bringing me or Mom and Dad. Do you have any idea how sad and hurt they are?"

"But it’s okay now. Our family can be together again. From now on, we’ll never be separated again..."

"What about the veins on your face? Didn’t you join Blood Drop? How... did you recover?"

Lin Yi cut him off before he could finish.

Lin Yu froze for a moment, then hastily explained, "Brother, I never joined Blood Drop. I went undercover on purpose to get you intelligence and bring down that evil organization..."

"Now Blood Drop is destroyed. It will never appear again!"

"Brother, come home with me. Mom and Dad are here too. We can live a good life together from now on!"

Lin Yu continued, still smiling.

Hearing this, Lin Yi smiled and nodded.

"Lin Yu, do you know what my biggest regret is?"

"Regret? Brother, go on," Lin Yu said, shaking his head.

Lin Yi stared at him and said, "My biggest regret is that I didn’t get to kill you with my own hands before I came to the New District!"

"I thought I’d never get the chance in this lifetime!"

"Even though you’re just an imposter... I guess you can still help me fulfill that regret!"

"What? Kill you? Brother, how could you..."

Lin Yu’s expression changed drastically, a flash of terror crossing his eyes.

But before he could finish, Lin Yi charged at him, Black Gold Tiger Head Spear in hand.

ROAR—

With a heaven-shaking tiger’s roar, the spear thrust straight toward the space between Lin Yu’s eyebrows.

Lin Yu didn’t even have time to scream.

The spear tip pierced straight through his head...

He watched as Lin Yu’s body slowly crumpled to the ground.

"Lin Yi, you actually killed Lin Yu? You... how could you become so heartless?

Even if you aren’t biological brothers, after so many years together, don’t you have any feelings for him at all?"

Suddenly, another familiar voice sounded.

Lin Yi whipped his head around and saw that the person berating him was none other than Liu Hongmei.

’Heh, one Lin Yu wasn’t enough? Now Liu Hongmei shows up too?’

’Perfect. I’ll send you two off together!’

Killing intent flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes as he charged at Liu Hongmei.

But just as he was about to reach her,

Liu Hongmei vanished without a trace.

"You animal! How did I raise a monster like you?"

"You’re an ungrateful wolf! First, you kill your brother, and now you want to kill your Aunt Liu? Are you going to kill me next?"

"Lin Dazhi?"

Lin Yi was surprised to see him under a streetlight not far away.

Lin Dazhi was standing right there.

Just like back in the Old District, he was pointing at Lin Yi and screaming curses.

"What did you call me? You disrespectful brat! Get on your knees!"

Lin Dazhi’s face was contorted with fury.

But Lin Yi simply gripped his spear and stared right back at him.

Then, he began walking toward Lin Dazhi, one step at a time.

The endless curses swirled around Lin Yi.

In that moment, it was as if Lin Yi had been transported back to his old home.

A home where Lin Dazhi and Liu Hongmei lived in happy harmony, and Lin Yu seemed to be their real son.

All the good things went to Lin Yu.

Lin Yi, on the other hand, was treated like an unwanted stray.

Repression, grievance, injustice... All sorts of emotions...

were all reawakened in this moment.

He walked right up to Lin Dazhi, looking at the face before him.

And hearing those curses.

PFFT...

With a soft sound, the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear pierced straight through his chest.

A horrified expression filled Lin Dazhi’s face as he looked down at the spear in his body.

It seemed that even at the moment of death, he never imagined Lin Yi would attack him.

He raised a finger to point at Lin Yi, his mouth opening and closing, but not a single word came out.

Lin Yi approached him, his eyes devoid of emotion, and whispered, "He wasn’t my weakness. He was always someone I wanted to kill. Thank you for this..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the anguished Old Lin before him dissolved into a cloud of black mist.

Then, as the black mist reconverged,

an entirely pitch-black entity appeared not far away.

It looked like a spirit formed from black smoke.

It had no solid body, no definite form.

It could transform into anything at will.

Lin Yi looked at the humanoid shape within the black smoke. "Are you a beast?"

The smoke person didn’t speak.

Its pair of crimson eyes were particularly striking.

It was staring at Lin Yi...

trying to find some clue in his heart to delude him again.

After a long moment, Lin Yi laughed. "Stop looking. I have no weaknesses, and no one can ever become my weakness!"

"I noticed you the moment you appeared.

I deliberately leaked Old Lin and Lin Yu to you, and I can’t believe you actually fell for it!"

"So thank you for helping me resolve my regrets..."

"I just didn’t expect a spiritual projection could form a spirit. Xiaoqi, you can have this thing as a midnight snack!"

Just as Lin Yi finished speaking,

SCREEE—

a clear cry tore through the night sky.

From not far away, Xiaoqi flew over, flapping its wings.

When it saw the cloud of black smoke, a thread of excited spiritual thought was transmitted to Lin Yi.

"Don’t rush, take your time. This thing is all yours!"

SCREEE—

Xiaoqi let out another excited cry.

The next moment, just as the black smoke sensed danger and tried to disperse and flee,

ice, visible to the naked eye, suddenly formed and completely sealed the entire cloud of black smoke within.

A huge block of ice had completely trapped the black smoke.

It tried to find a crack to escape through,

but no matter what it did, it couldn’t break out of the ice.

Xiaoqi landed on the block of ice and looked down at the black smoke inside.

It was like prey trapped in a box.

Lin Yi watched from the side with great interest.

’I didn’t expect Xiaoqi’s ice sealing to be this powerful already!’

’It can even control the shape of the ice at will!’

CRACK—

The sound of ice shattering.

The black smoke tried to escape through the crack.

But the moment the black smoke peeked out, Xiaoqi swallowed it whole.

SCREEE—

Having swallowed the cloud of black smoke, Xiaoqi became even more excited.

It flapped its wings and soared into the air,

circling back and forth above Lin Yi’s head.

It seemed overjoyed, as if it had just eaten something delicious.

Lin Yi looked up at it, chuckled, and said, "If you’re full, get back to work. We still need to find two more 3-star Demon Beasts..."

Xiaoqi circled one more time,

then spread its wings and flew straight into the distance.

Lin Yi glanced back at the spot where the black smoke had impersonated Old Lin.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and within two or three seconds, he was gone, disappearing into the night after Xiaoqi.

Less than a few minutes after Lin Yi left,

a figure appeared near the block of ice.

He walked up to the ice and examined it carefully.

"That kid was just here. What kind of Cultivation Technique is this? He can make an ice box from a block of ice?" The man’s brow furrowed deeply.

Suddenly, another cry echoed from up ahead.

He looked up abruptly and sneered, "Found you!"

He then bypassed the ice box and gave chase in the direction of the cry.

On another street,

Lin Yi was cornered by someone.

"You must be Lin Yi, right?"

The man was from Han Dong’s team, and he held a long staff.

He had a burly, muscular build, and his head was bald and shiny, without a single hair.

He looked just like a Shaolin Martial Monk.

His fierce appearance was enough to strike fear into anyone’s heart.

Lin Yi, however, glanced at him with a calm expression. "A sophomore? How did you guys get in here?"

"Holy shit..."

The Martial Monk couldn’t help but curse at Lin Yi’s composure.

"You’re about to fucking die, and you’re wondering how we got in?"

"Someone paid to have you killed!"

"We’re just doing a job for money. Kid, in your next life, be more careful about who you piss off. Don’t mess with the rich..."

"You talk too much!"

Before the Martial Monk could finish speaking,

Lin Yi pushed off the ground, Black Gold Tiger Head Spear in hand, and shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

He became a blur as he charged straight at the Martial Monk.

The Martial Monk was startled for a second, then nodded. "Alright, kid. You actually fucking dare to charge at me?"

The next moment, the spearhead thrust toward the Martial Monk’s throat.

He instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

He hurriedly blocked with the staff in his hands, producing a loud CLANG as metal struck metal.

But to his surprise, Lin Yi’s immense strength made the Martial Monk’s arms go numb.

He nearly dropped the staff.

Stumbling back two steps, he said with suppressed anger in his eyes, "Kid, you’ve really got some skills..."

"Noisy..."

Lin Yi muttered, thrusting his spear straight at the Martial Monk again.
