Chapter 915 Running into the line of fire
"Waiter, serve!"
A deep voice rang out, and looking in the direction of the voice, one could see the same people who had been hiding in the corner.
Lin Ping glanced at them and noticed the unusual aura emanating from them.
To avoid conflict, he did not immediately use X-rays to assess the other party's strength.
After all, once you reach the fifth level, you can sense Lin Ping's probing.
The red-robed man at the head of the group also glanced at Lin Ping, but his expression remained unchanged.
"What terrifying eyes," Lin Ping said breathlessly. Just that one glance was enough to make him feel suffocated.
“These people are quite strong, even stronger than us.” Jiang Yunying also became more vigilant.
Lin Ping was puzzled. In Meizhou City, any sect with a reputation would be arrogant and disdainful of eating at such a small restaurant. The behavior of these people was obviously a bit strange.
Adhering to the principle of "it's better to avoid trouble," Lin Ping continued eating.
"Have you heard? A few days ago, a great battle took place in the north of the city. Qin Yu of the Sword King Sect fought against a hundred men single-handedly, killing more than twenty experts from the three major sword sects and also eliminating three elders. His strength is extremely terrifying!" someone said mysteriously in the center.
"It seems that the Sword King Sect has surpassed the Three Great Sword Sects. This Qin Yu is even more difficult to deal with. Let's give up on capturing him." The onlookers shook their heads, having given up all hope of capturing him.
“This Xia Lie Lie can’t talk nonsense. It was clearly Senior Yan Gang who killed those people,” Jiang Yunying said angrily in Lin Ping’s ear.
If she weren't afraid of revealing her identity, she would have loved to severely criticize Xia Lie Lie so that he would never dare to fabricate stories again.
"The more sensational the news, the better it is for us." Lin Ping pursed his lips, listening with great interest to the story Xia Lie Lie had made up.
"Who is slandering the reputation of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect? Do they have a death wish?" A rough voice came from outside the door.
"Huan, Huan, Huan Ye..." Upon seeing the fat man, Xia Lie Lie immediately wilted and almost knelt on the ground to beg for mercy.
"Xia Lie Lie, it's you again! Believe me or not, I'll slap you to death!" Xie Huan roared, his fat hand already on Xia Lie Lie's face.
However, no crisp slapping sound rang out; Xia Lie Lie had cleverly dodged the attack.
"Master Huan, I won't do it again next time." Xia Lie Lie ran away in a flash, not giving Xie Huan a chance to chase after him.
"Such agile movements! In terms of lightness skill alone, this person is a hundred times better than Xie Huan, and his strength should also be above Xie Huan's," Lin Ping analyzed carefully.
Lin Ping didn't want to pay much attention to Xia Lie Lie, a clown, but the other party's agility was truly astonishing.
"Then why is he afraid of Xie Huan?" Jiang Yunying asked, puzzled.
The land of Bashu is essentially a no-man's-land where strength reigns supreme. Since Xia Lie Lie is stronger than Xie Huan, he shouldn't have run away.
"Huh? Where did this pretty girl come from?" Xie Huan's eyes were fixed on Jiang Yunying, and his fat body slowly approached.
"Little girl, what do you want to eat? I'll treat you to the best." Xie Huan shamelessly sat down next to Jiang Yunying, completely ignoring Lin Ping's murderous intent.
If this were inside Huai'an City, Jiang Yunying would have already gone berserk.
Let alone a fat, greasy man like him, even a charming young master wouldn't arouse Jiang Yunying's interest in him; she would only feel disgusted.
Compared to Lin Ping, any man is scum!
But she couldn't act impulsively, lest she cause unnecessary trouble.
"No need, I prefer vegetables," Jiang Yunying said without looking up, and even put a piece of food on Lin Ping's plate.
"So you already have someone else in your heart, no wonder you ignored me." Xie Huan felt a burning resentment in his heart.
"You brat, get lost." Xie Huan sat down between the two of them, trying to push Lin Ping away with his butt.
"Is this how you roll?"
Lin Ping slapped Xie Huan, sending her flying.
His already bloated, fat face became even more swollen, looking just like a steamed bun.
"You brat, you dare hit me? Looks like you don't want to live anymore." Xie Huan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, staggered to his feet, and spat out a mouthful of phlegm.
"You think you can compete?" Lin Ping said with disdain.
This kind of fat guy could take down ten people with one punch, and not even in a human pyramid.
First he was beaten, then he was looked down upon. Xie Huan was so angry that he wanted to kill Lin Ping. Just as he was about to draw his curved knife, he suddenly had a bright idea: "You brat, what kind of hero ambushes? If you're so capable, fight me fair and square. Whoever wins gets to have this girl."
In Xie Huan's view, beautiful women love heroes. As long as he can defeat Lin Ping honorably, he will naturally win Jiang Yunying's heart.
“Husband…” Jiang Yunying held Lin Ping’s hand and shook her head.
It means, don't kill, just cripple them.
"What, are you scared? If you kneel down and kowtow right now, and lick up all the phlegm that Master Huan spits out, and let your little wife spend the night with Master Huan, I might spare you from being crippled." Xie Huan said excitedly, even drooling.
At that moment, the woman at the other table had already pressed down on the hilt of her sword, her icy aura capable of killing.
"Junior sister, let's wait and see." The leading man pressed his hand on his sword sheath.
"But Xie Huan is quite lucky. If he had dared to disrespect his junior sister, he would probably already be beheaded," the man sneered.
Was she really that lucky? Did she really not care about offending Lin Ping?
Bang!
With a flash, a fist containing terrifying force struck Xie Huan's face.
The swollen face caved in under the immense pressure, and the bridge of the nose was completely broken.
puff!
Xie Huan inexplicably coughed up blood and staggered backward.
"Is this how you fight?" Lin Ping's icy voice rang out.
If the slap just now was a sneak attack, then this punch is true strength.
Xie Huan was completely stunned, her eyes seeing stars.
Before he could even regain his balance, a pair of strong hands pressed down on his head from behind and slammed it to the ground.
Bang!
His broad forehead slammed into the ground, the wooden board shattered in two, and blood flowed from Xie Huan's forehead like a stream.
"Is this how you kneel and kowtow?" Lin Ping continued.
"Husband, don't kill anyone." Jiang Yunying sensed the anger in Lin Ping's eyes.
She knew that Xie Huan had crossed Lin Ping's bottom line, and anyone who dared to insult her would only have one fate.
Upon hearing Jiang Yunying's voice, Lin Ping gradually calmed down. The gleaming dagger slashed across Xie Huan's groin, hitting the vital spot squarely.
What followed was a series of pig-like screams.
"You brat, I'll cut you into a thousand pieces!" Xie Huan left in utter despair, leaving behind only this harsh threat.
"Young man, you should run away quickly. Xie Huan's backer is the Shu Mountain Sword Sect. There are few people in Meizhou City who dare to offend him." The shopkeeper kindly advised him. To be honest, he also disliked Xie Huan's behavior.
"The Shu Mountain Sword Sect, huh? I'd like to see just how capable you are." Lin Ping revealed a faint killing intent.
