Chapter 466: Chapter 466

Mu Wanqing looked at Liu Zongsheng in confusion and called out.

However, Liu Zongsheng replied in shock and uncertainty:

Liu Zongsheng seemed to realize something and turned directly to Mu Wanqing and said:

"Go quickly, I’m fine."

Even one guy in a hoodie left him in such a sorry state, now another, even more terrifying, one appeared. Liu Zongsheng just wanted Mu Wanqing to quickly escape far away.

Although the guy in the hoodie feared Lin Yi, he didn’t want to let Mu Wanqing go so easily and threatened fiercely:

"Try walking away, I dare you!"

Then the guy in the hoodie viciously grabbed Liu Zongsheng’s shoulder, making him cry out in pain and his face twist into a grimace.

The noise here caught the attention of the people around, and an elderly lady who just opened her window was scared back by a shout from the guy in the hoodie:

"What are you looking at!"

Facing this seemingly crazed man, Lin Yi frowned deeply.

To Lin Yi, this person felt like a reckless madman.

Seeing that they had already drawn the attention of those around, presumably soon alerting the police, Lin Yi had no intention of lingering here:

"Since you don’t want to talk, I’ll have to do it myself."

As Lin Yi raised his hand, the guy in the hoodie took a fearful half-step back.

But Lin Yi merely pushed up the sunglasses on his nose, revealing a mocking smile:

"You seem really scared of me, huh!"

The guy in the hoodie was stunned for a moment, then looked at Mu Wanqing with an indignant expression and pointed at Lin Yi in a final warning:

"Stop pretending to be mysterious, I’m telling you, if you mess with me, the people behind me won’t let you go."

At this point, Lin Yi’s expression changed:

"I’m done playing with you."

Seeing this, the guy in the hoodie tried to gain the upper hand first:

"I warned you to mind your own business."

Amid his words, he clenched his right fist, which was engulfed in flames, and launched a punch toward Lin Yi with a wave of fiery energy: Content orıginally comes from novel~fire~net

Liu Zongsheng hurriedly warned Lin Yi:

"Watch out for his fist."

But this shout triggered the injury on his body, making Liu Zongsheng grimace in pain and kneel on the ground.

Not far away, Mu Wanqing, witnessing this scene, screamed in shock:

Seeing Mu Wanqing rushing over, Liu Zongsheng intended to stop her, but he was in no condition to speak due to the fire’s poison ravaging his heart, causing sheer agony.

By this time, the guy in the hoodie had reached Lin Yi’s side:

The fiery punch that had tormented Liu Zongsheng was now effortlessly caught by Lin Yi, with the flame on the fist vanishing instantly.

Under the hoodie’s cover, a face filled with panic appeared:

"What did you do to me?"

Lin Yi didn’t pay attention to the guy in the hoodie’s shock. During this brief distraction, he had a sense of being in a game, making it momentarily unclear if he was in reality or still in the game.

Just when Lin Yi was distracted, a powerful gust came from behind. Lin Yi grabbed the guy by the arm and swung him aside.

The guy in the hoodie slammed into a nearby wall, while Lin Yi sidestepped just in time as a bullet zipped past his chest:

The ground was hit, creating a thumb-sized hole.

A heavy sniper rifle!

At this moment, a figure darted from a nearby building to grab the unconscious guy in the hoodie. Lin Yi didn’t move to stop it immediately but dashed over and pulled Liu Zongsheng and Mu Wanqing aside:

In the blink of an eye, a bullet hole appeared where Liu Zongsheng had just been.

In the time spent on this, the guy in the hoodie had already been whisked away by the sudden figure.

Mu Wanqing instinctively shielded Liu Zongsheng, cautiously watching Lin Yi:

"What do you want to do!"

Despite the searing pain from the fire’s poison, Liu Zongsheng managed to say:

Lin Yi sensed the direction of the intruder’s departure but hesitated for a moment before dismissing the idea of pursuit; only then did he turn his attention to Mu Wanqing.

But Lin Yi ignored Mu Wanqing’s questioning; since they were strangers, he found no need for introductions.

When Lin Yi moved to grasp Liu Zongsheng’s arm, Mu Wanqing blocked him, her face full of suspicion:

"What are you doing! I’m warning you; don’t do anything rash!"

"I’ve already called the police. They’ll be here soon."

Seeing Liu Zongsheng’s agony, Lin Yi remarked:

"If you want him to feel better, step aside."

Mu Wanqing glared at Lin Yi:

Lin Yi’s indifference felt like a grave insult to Mu Wanqing.

"You haven’t even said who you are or what you’re trying to do."

Liu Zongsheng, having regained some strength, stopped Mu Wanqing, saying:

"Don’t be rude to the senior."

Mu Wanqing’s wide eyes were fixed on the man in front of her, who didn’t seem much older than herself:

Lin Yi glanced at this woman, who seemed vaguely familiar, then squatted and grabbed Liu Zongsheng’s arm. A dense concentration of the Wood Element coursed into Liu Zongsheng’s body through his arm.

Under Liu Zongsheng’s intensely shocked gaze, this mysterious Power, like a chill under the burning sun, instantly cleared the poison from his body.

Liu Zongsheng had thought he wouldn’t survive this, but the young man before him solved it in an instant.

Once Lin Yi finished clearing Liu Zongsheng’s fire poison, he stood up to leave.

Lin Yi paused and looked at Liu Zongsheng quizzically:

"Is there something else?"

With Mu Wanqing’s help, Liu Zongsheng stood up and gave Lin Yi a deep, respectful bow from the waist, expressing gratitude from the heart:

"Thank you for saving my life, senior."

"May I ask the senior’s name so that I can visit to express my gratitude properly in the future?"

Mu Wanqing was stunned, looking at Liu Zongsheng, who was usually so enigmatic. A man in his fifties or sixties was calling a young man who seemed in his twenties ’senior’?

If not for just escaping danger, Mu Wanqing might have burst into laughter at this absurd scene.

But seeing Liu Zongsheng’s attitude now, her many questions had to remain in her heart.

Regarding the request, Lin Yi shook his head and said:

"No need for thanks, it was just a small gesture."

At this point, Mu Wanqing’s assistant hurriedly arrived:

"Sister Wanqing, are you okay? I’ve called the police, and they’ll be here soon."

Seeing that everything was fine here, Lin Yi, wanting to avoid complications, said:

"I’ll take my leave now."

Liu Zongsheng didn’t dare prolong the interaction, thanking him again:

Watching Lin Yi’s retreating figure, Mu Wanqing questioned Liu Zongsheng about her doubts:

"Grandpa Liu, who is he? Why do you call him senior?"

Reflecting on the Power he had just witnessed, Liu Zongsheng felt apprehensive:

"He’s a reclusive master our Liu Family in the Capital City cannot afford to provoke!"
