Zombie Bodyguard

Chapter 2113: Chapter 2110: Confinement

"Submit to your grandpa!" Lin Tian’s response to Ancestor Xu was only a fist. Submission meant surrender, and he would rather die than submit.

Ancestor Xu’s face was expressionless. He lightly delivered a palm strike, but when it landed on Lin Tian, it generated immense force. With a loud bang, he was sent flying backward again.

Before he could hit the ground, Ancestor Xu moved. In a flash, he appeared beside Lin Tian and punched him in the abdomen, sending him flying back again.

Just as he returned to his original position, Ancestor Xu appeared again, delivered another punch, hitting Lin Tian’s chin and sending him soaring into the sky.

Ancestor Xu lightly leaped into the air, chased after Lin Tian, and looked down at him, saying softly, "Did you not see clearly? I’ll be slower." He struck with his palm, even more slowly than before.

Lin Tian indeed didn’t see the previous attack clearly, or he saw it clearly, but just as he was about to counter, he fell for it.

With a swish, Lin Tian transformed the Heavenly Tribulation Sword and stabbed towards Ancestor Xu’s heart, without any defense. By relying solely on this desperate fighting style, he might have a chance in this battle.

Ancestor Xu seemed to not see the stabbing Heavenly Tribulation Sword and effortlessly reached out, actually grabbing the blade of the Heavenly Tribulation Sword barehanded. At the same time, his striking palm did not stop, hitting Lin Tian’s chest.

With a bang, his whole body was slapped downwards rapidly. Boom, his body hit the ground, and the Heavenly Tribulation Sword was taken away. Ancestor Xu grabbed the Heavenly Tribulation Sword and threw it back hand, directly shooting at Lin Tian, with such power that it could pierce through Lin Tian’s zombie body.

Seeing he was about to be pierced through the heart by his own sword, at the last moment, the Heavenly Tribulation Sword automatically deviated a few inches, brushing past his clothes and shooting into the ground.

"Master, this king saved your life," the Sword Spirit claimed credit.

Although Lin Tian didn’t get struck by the sword at this time, he was not much better. Under one palm, Lin Tian felt his ribs break and his organs shift as if they had moved, experiencing intense pain inside and out, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

The last time in the Shrine, when surpassing levels to challenge Xu Feibai, he wasn’t injured as badly, but this time, the difference was not ordinary. The power of the domain was almost unshakable.

Lin Tian tried to activate the Ksitigarbha Order, but it didn’t respond. Out of the country, this thing seemed not to work?

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Lin Tian struggled to stand up, and surprisingly, a smile appeared on his face: "Hehe, as long as I don’t die, I can still fight."

Such resilience, such persistence, deeply shocked the Xu Family members. The initially chattering crowd became quiet.

Ancestor Xu landed beside him, looking down at Lin Tian, without a trace of pity.

"Ancestor Xu, please let Lin Tian go," Xu Feibai requested again.

But Ancestor Xu did not even glance at him, lifted his foot, and stomped down. Yet, he didn’t step on Lin Tian but on the ground. The only intact piece of ground split open, and a black hole appeared at once.

Lin Tian only felt weightless for a moment, then fell down with sword, into the endless darkness. Ancestor Xu retracted his foot, stood straight, the black hole disappeared, and Lin Tian vanished without a trace.

"Ancestor Xu, Lin Tian, he..." Xu Feibai frowned and asked.

"I have confined him. This is already the best outcome for his defiance," Ancestor Xu replied coldly, god-like, with no one able to oppose his will.

"Ancestor Xu is not going to kill Lin Tian?" Xu Feibai was overjoyed. Having lived for hundreds of years, this seemed the only thing that made him happy.

"The Nu Ba Ancestor has already broken the seal and emerged. If I kill her bloodline inheritor, she will immediately sense it. If she attacks the Xu Family, it will be destroyed in an instant. Before Jiang Chen Ancestor is resurrected, no accidents can happen." As he spoke of Nu Ba, Ancestor Xu looked serious, entirely different from his previous cruelty.

Hearing Lin Tian wouldn’t die, Xu Feibai couldn’t help but smile, but he couldn’t let Ancestor Xu see it, so he had to lower his head respectfully: "Since he is confined, how does Ancestor Xu plan to deal with him?"

Ancestor Xu’s gaze flickered a bit, and he said indifferently: "Confine him for a while, then you can release him."

"Release him?" Xu Feibai was stunned, thinking he had misheard. When did Ancestor Xu ever show mercy?

Ancestor Xu glanced at him, snorted: "Humph, foolish. Since we can’t kill him, keeping him is also trouble, so why not release him? He will be grateful to you, and in the future, you can use that gratitude to do things."

"If that’s the case, why bother forcing him? Wouldn’t it be better if the Xu Family had a good relationship with him from the start?" Xu Feibai still didn’t understand.

Ancestor Xu sighed slightly and said: "If he could submit to the Xu Family, it would be great, but things don’t go as planned. After Jiang Chen Ancestor is resurrected, the Xu Family will no longer be under my control. The future is out of my hands, you are the hope of the Xu Family, like leaving behind a seed."

"Lin Tian, in his bones, is more arrogant than anyone, I’m afraid he won’t accept favors," Xu Feibai said, recalling Lin Tian’s personality, and felt helpless, a new zombie, more arrogant than those with seniority.

"No need to say more, just do as I say." Ancestor Xu’s tone allowed no rebuttal, he flicked his sleeve and left.

The other onlookers also left one after another. They all knew that the Xu Family’s dark confinement was almost isolated from the world, more uncomfortable than any punishment.

At this moment, Lin Tian was falling in the darkness, finally with a thud, hitting the hard ground. The jolt affected his injured ribs and internal organs, causing him to grimace with pain, such internal wounds heavier than those caused by Tang Xuan Su’s Sword Qi.

"Damn..." Lin Tian couldn’t help but curse a few times, but he knew, cursing was futile. Healing his wounds and understanding his surroundings were the priorities.

Lin Tian sat cross-legged, concentrated his mind, and released a trace of purple flame. The purple flame flowed to the injured area, nurturing and repairing his organs and bones.

To others, the purple flame is fatal, but for him, it is a life essence energy that can restore his zombie body’s injuries, even better than absorbing the essence of the moon.

The wound site felt even more itchy and numb, more comfortable than soaking in a hot spring in the cold of winter. Moreover, Lin Tian was amazed to find that the broken bones, after being repaired by the purple flame, became stronger.

Just like steel tempered and refined, they became more dense and more robust. An hour later, Lin Tian opened his eyes, gently clapped the ground with both hands, and easily jumped up.

After leaping up, Lin Tian threw a couple of punches and felt his body full of strength, even surpassing before.

"Master, you are indeed an undying Xiao Qiang, the more you fight, the stronger you get," the Sword Spirit couldn’t help but praise, even having accompanied King Arthur on many expeditions, never had it seen such a formidable figure.

"That old guy didn’t have a killing intent, but the domain’s power was indeed overbearing. You are the most sensitive to energy, did you sense anything?" Lin Tian knew Ancestor Xu didn’t mean to kill him, but being beaten like this felt frustrating, especially with that damn domain, suppressing so heavily.

This new power is what Lin Tian truly cared about.
