The King of Urban Mercenaries

Chapter 1671 - 1676: A Bunch of Scumbags

Lin Fei had no idea what was going on. What he was most worried about right now was still his own body—he actually couldn’t control himself from devouring the Heaven and Earth Qi. He tried a few other methods, but none of them worked.

"Looks like the blast was too serious. My cells can’t store Heaven and Earth Qi anymore?"

Lin Fei guessed to himself. Then he thought of a few other options and decided to give up for the moment, get some proper rest first.

Lin Fei rested at home for several days, and finally he was able to devour Heaven and Earth Qi again. After that, Lin Fei discovered that as Heaven and Earth Qi poured into his body, every inch of him, those tiny golden particles actually began devouring the Heaven and Earth Qi. He felt he was taking in far more Heaven and Earth Qi than before.

"Did I actually change? A blessing in disguise? Or did I just stumble into success by accident?"

Lin Fei wasn’t sure, but after he met Zhang Fan, he finally confirmed that he really had succeeded a little.

"Lin Fei, why do you have a trace of True Qi on you?"

Hearing Zhang Fan’s words, Lin Fei said with delight, "Really? You’re sure it’s True Qi?" Lin Fei could hardly believe it.

"Of course. And it’s Golden Core Stage True Qi. But how did you pull that off?" Zhang Fan was curious too. He’d never heard of anyone from the Lower Realm being able to condense a Golden Core down here. After all, the Heaven and Earth Qi in the Lower Realm wasn’t abundant, and its quality was nowhere near enough to condense a Golden Core.

Lin Fei said, "I just blundered into it by accident. Never thought it would actually work." Lin Fei went through his whole experience.

Zhang Fan stared at Lin Fei in shock. "You know what, you really are lucky as hell. No one would dare do something like that. If you’d slipped up and exploded, there wouldn’t even be a corpse left! How is your body this tough? Otherwise you’d have been dead long ago!"

Just like Zhang Fan said, if Lin Fei hadn’t had such a strong physique, he’d probably already be a dead man.

But now Lin Fei was still alive and kicking. All of this was thanks to the body the Demon Lord Hua Xian had modified for him.

Over the next few days, Lin Fei fell into an endless loop. He had already grasped the trick to it. He slowly channeled Heaven and Earth Qi inside until it was saturated. The golden particles in Lin Fei’s body became more and more numerous, on the verge of multiplying into a whole field of them!

Dense and packed—if someone had trypophobia, they wouldn’t even need to imagine the scene, it’d be absolutely horrifying. But it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. After all, human cells can’t be seen with the naked eye. In truth, humans are originally made of countless dense cells. Even if you have trypophobia, you still can’t deny that your body is exactly a mass of densely packed cells put together...

After several days of hard fighting, Lin Fei finally resolved the confusion about his "face-cultivation" issue. But the revolution had not yet succeeded; Lin Fei still needed to keep working hard. He didn’t stop Cultivating, and kept at it all the way until people from the Upper Realm arrived!

The Divine Stone lit up above the Beidou Sect like a blinding light bulb. Leng Daoqiu immediately called Lin Fei, and once Lin Fei picked up, he quickly explained the situation.

Lin Fei nodded and said, "Okay! We’ll head over right away."

After hanging up, Lin Fei went straight to Zhang Fan’s house, only to find Zhang Fan wasn’t home at all. Lin Fei found that strange and immediately dialed Zhang Fan’s cell, but no one picked up. That left Lin Fei feeling helpless.

Right then, Zhang Fan was still at the mall, carrying a bunch of big and small bags. The phone in his pocket started ringing. He handed it to Tian Yaoyao and said she should pick it up. Tian Yaoyao said, "I’m not answering. It’s definitely some sales call. What’s the point of picking up?"

The phone kept ringing, but Zhang Fan just had no way to answer it and could only drag it out like that.

Lin Fei kept dialing as he headed toward the Beidou Sect. Finally, once he reached the Beidou Sect, Lin Fei finally got through to Zhang Fan.

"Hello?"

"Zhang Fan, where are you? People from the Upper Realm are here. Can’t you feel their aura?"

When he heard Lin Fei say that people from the Upper Realm had come, Zhang Fan immediately dropped everything he was holding onto the floor. "Let me sense it."

He calmed himself down and carefully sensed the Qi in the world around him. Because there were a lot of people where he was, what he felt at first was basically all other people’s auras. But those from the Upper Realm had a unique aura, and he quickly picked it out.

"Yaoyao, I’m heading out first. People from the Upper Realm have arrived."

"What? People from the Upper Realm? Then I’m coming too! Maybe I can help!" Tian Yaoyao immediately spoke up.

But Zhang Fan shook his head. "You’re a woman, better not go. Just wait here. I’ll go alone. You keep shopping, and I’ll come back and help you carry the stuff."

With that, Zhang Fan left on the spot, found a place with no one around, and vanished from sight like a bolt of lightning.

Tian Yaoyao watched Zhang Fan leave and thought back to what he’d just said. She felt that the little junior brother from before had actually grown this manly and already could handle things on his own. He didn’t need her protection anymore.

"That stinky little Fan, I’ll pinch your cheeks when you get back!" Tian Yaoyao’s face was full of smiles.

At this moment, Lin Fei was staring at that group of people in the distance. They had actually formed a huge circle. Lin Fei could feel the fluctuation of an Array, and that group was even continually expanding it. In the end, they laid down a Space Isolation Array covering a radius of ten li. The group stood inside the Array, looking at Lin Fei. "You’re Lin Fei? The Law Enforcer of the Lower Realm?"

"You’re from the Desolate Earth Sect, right?"

Lin Fei stayed on high alert, constantly watching the surroundings. There might very well be an ambush nearby.

But Lin Fei didn’t find any ambush. The other side didn’t seem to have hidden anyone around here.

"You should know this kind of Array, right?"

"Space Isolation Array, I know it." Lin Fei replied.

The man from the Upper Realm said, "Since you know what it is, that means you don’t dare step inside. In that case, let’s play a fun little game."

"What game?"

"Hand over the Divine Artifact and we’ll leave. Otherwise, this will be the result!"

The man from the Upper Realm suddenly changed his tone and slapped his palm toward a small village below.

Boom!

The huge palm print, condensed from Heaven and Earth Qi, slammed straight down on the small village below. The village instantly collapsed and turned into a field of ruins.

The children who had been walking below were directly slapped to death in one palm, utterly brutal. Blood and flesh were splattered all over the ground. Where the village chief’s house had been, a giant palm print now appeared before everyone’s eyes.

"You’re looking for death!" Lin Fei’s voice was ice-cold. He hadn’t expected the people from the Upper Realm this time to be such scum!

"Hahahahaha! Thanks for the compliment. But you still need to hand over the Divine Artifact. Otherwise, you see that? There are plenty more villages over there. I don’t mind slapping a few more times!"
