Skysplit Towerâs enforcement team represented the 12 High Lords! Who would have the courage to so brazenly attack them?!
To attack the enforcement team meant opposing the 12 High Lords. In Skysplit Tower, the 12 High Lords were the emperors, they controlled life and death in their hands!
Now, Lin Ming had just blatantly slapped the High Lordsâ faces.
Moreover, although the enforcement team membersâ talents werenât too high, their ages were. They were not weak. Otherwise, why would they have the ability to enforce the law on the third floor?
But just now, five or six of them had been casually struck by Lin Ming and sent flying back!
âTo use fingers as his spear and sweep away the entire enforcement team!â
âWhat a terrifying spear light. Although it wasnât even aimed at me, I still felt my heart shake!â
The surrounding martial artists were not weaklings. But they faintly imagined what would happen if they were to take that one strike a moment ago, and every conclusion they came to made them depressed. The majority of them had to admit that they simply didnât have the strength to resist in the face of that attack. Even if some of them thought they could resist it, they feared that they would probably suffer minor injuries.
This was just Lin Mingâs casual attack; he hadnât even used his spear!
âLin Ming! You⌠you⌠do you have a death wish?!â The enforcement team captain burned with anger, but he was actually quaking in his heart, crying about why this was happening. He had taken his team here but they had been instantly swept away with a single strike. Now he could only watch, he didnât dare to do anything to Lin Ming.
Lin Ming hadnât been ruthless in that strike just now. Otherwise, these people wouldnât have been severely wounded and vomited blood, but rather directly perished where they stood!
If Lin Ming dared to kill people in a prohibited area, then he would dare to kill the enforcement team!
The enforcement team captain had ridden the tiger and now there was no more backing down. He simply didnât know what to do. With so many pairs of eyes looking at him, under their gaze he had been smacking around. If he walked away then he would be shamed so much that even his grandmother wouldnât recognize him. How could he still continue to enforce the law on the third floor?
He couldnât run but he couldnât stay either. As the enforcement team captain was agonizing over what to do, the sound of noisy footsteps suddenly stirred.
Turning around, he saw a troop of over a dozen warriors rush over. They all wore the same battle armor, and their individual strength and cultivation were far beyond the enforcement team of the third floor!
âThe fourth floor guards.â
The martial artists were stunned. The guards for the fourth floor were the same as the personal guard for the High Lords! Their status was also much higher than the enforcement teamâs.
A High Lord had come?
In Skysplit Tower, it had been too many years since a High Lord had been aroused!
âMake way! Everyone make way!â
The captain of the fourth floor guards snapped at everyone before him. Although his attitude was crude and barbaric, nobody dared to say half a word back to him. All of they gave way, lest they were slow and blocked his path.
In the center of these fourth floor guards, a black-robed Imp slowly stepped out. He had a cruel smile on his face as he coldly looked at Lin Ming.
This was High Lord Heian!
High Lord!!!
All of the martial artists present felt their pupils shrink. In fact, there werenât too many martial artists that had seen High Lords up close, but they could feel a faint imposing aura emitting from him, and could correctly guess that this Imp man in front of them was one of the 12 High Lords.
One of the 12 High Lords, the highest existences within Skysplit Tower!
âLin Ming, this is the first time that weâve met!â As High Lord Heian spoke, his eyes filled with a sparkling killing intent.
At this time, Lin Ming had sat back down in the restaurant, slowly eating his meal again. He looked up at High Lord Heian and laid down his chopsticks, standing up once more.
Facing High Lord Heian, his actions were sincere.
âYou are Heian?â
All of the martial artists felt their hearts tighten. Lin Ming had directly called a High Lord by his name!
What arrogance! What pride!
High Lord Heianâs eyes narrowed as he looking at Lin Ming, his vision as sharp as his knife. It seemed as if he were trying to completely understand him, penetrating through his entire being.
This boy was truly formidable!
âAddressing me by my name, disrespecting me, killing in the prohibited zone, even attacking the enforcement team. You⌠your unbridled actions are far too audacious!â
âMe? Audacious?â Lin Ming smiled. âHeian, wasnât it you who hired that old Imp to lay down a great space locking array around the Kingâs Cage? You wanted to lock me in the Kingâs Cage and kill me in there? Hehe⌠if I hadnât made a miraculous breakthrough inside, then I fear I would already be dead in the Kingâs Cage!â
His words were relentless. Combined with the Asura force field that seemed to burst out from his body, this caused his words to loudly ring in everyoneâs ears, causing them to tremble.
âWhat?â
Lin Mingâs words shocked everyone present!
It wasnât a secret that Suo Ge had been busily working inside the Kingâs Cage these past days.
Skysplit Towerâs practice areas could be considered relics from the ancient times; it was impossible for Suo Ge to repair any of the array formations because he simply lacked this ability. If so, then what was he doing for so many days inside of the special practice area?
Also, after Lin Ming emerged from the Kingâs Cage ater 108, although it was truly shocking, everyone was filled with their own suspicions. Just what had Lin Ming experience inside the Kingâs Cage? Why had he stayed inside for so long?
Thirdly, if Skysplit Tower recognized Lin Ming as dead, then why wasnât the Kingâs Cage opened again?
All of these doubts were actually laid bare by Lin Ming and all of the martial artists present realized what had happened. None of them were fools. They connected all the possibilities and were able to instantly judge that what Lin Ming said was most likely true!
The 12 High Lords wanted Lin Ming to die in peril within the Kingâs Cage. But, by whatever means, Lin Ming had emerged from the Kingâs Cage!
With the great space locking array laid down by Suo Ge, in addition to the inhumane environment inside the Kingâs Cage that only grew worse every day, Lin Ming actually stayed within for 108 days and broke out himself!
Was he even human?
Now that this plot was revealed by Lin Ming, High Lord Heianâs complexion turned ugly. His plan to kill Lin Ming had been perfect. But he never imagined that even in this situation, Lin Ming would still be able to come out alive!
âLin Ming, the reason that I asked Suo Ge to come is because I wanted him to set down a new transmission array for an improved escape talisman. This is so that martial artists that enter the Kingâs Cage can have greater chances of escaping alive! Who do you think you are, that you think you are so worthy that I would personally concoct schemes to deal with you?â High Lord Heian spoke with contempt.
However, no matter how disdainful High Lord Heianâs expression was, there was basically no martial artist present that believed his excuse. They werenât silly children that would be fooled so easily. But although everyone understood how things were, no one dared to reveal anything otherwise.
âHahaha! Is that so?â Lin Ming sneered, the derision in his eyes and voice obvious.
High Lord Heian subconsciously clenched his fists. This matter was becoming increasingly troublesome.
If he personally dealt with Lin Ming today, then he would undoubtedly be able to capture or kill Lin Ming.
But he himself would be seen as in the wrong, and would have been shown to be vagrantly breaking all decorum and rules. When that happened, he would be known as the High Lord of Polar Skysplit Tower that schemed and used every means possible to strangle rising talents!
Polar Skysplit Towerâs reputation could not withstand such damage!
âThis damn boy!â Heian cursed in his mind. But, he couldnât back down at this moment. Killing Lin Ming now was no good, but letting Lin Ming leave like this was even worse.
He had no idea what to do!
At this moment, there were more noisy footsteps approaching. High Lord Heian turned and saw that not too far away, Yan Chi, Maha, and Kai Yang were all soaring over here.
As Heian saw these three people he was instantly overjoyed. With these three, he thought of a safe solution to all his problems!
