Where there's a silver angel bracelet, something is definitely not normal.
Combined with the fact that someone was tracking him before, everything seemed extraordinary.
"Hey, brother-in-law, don't run away, are you suddenly thinking of getting an erotic massage?" The anxious voice of Ruoshuang rang out behind him, quickly tossed aside by his own speed.
Stepping into the woods, Lin Hai's gaze was sharp.
As expected, someone was here.
A giant, approximately 2.7 meters tall, was cloaked from head to toe in a black robe that could hardly conceal his immense build and strength.
The black robe was embroidered with countless strange golden symbols. With hands held as if offering something, he cradled a silver angel bracelet, with one end of the bracelet threading through the robe, piercing his arm, circling around, and returning to his hands.
Beyond this, on the person's hands and feet, he wore shackles made from some unknown metal.
His figure was towering, but his attire resembled that of a slave or servant.
"You have come," a deep, reverberating voice said, carrying an ancient and vicarious flavor as if the person did not belong to this era.
"How did you know I was coming?" Lin Hai slowly stirred the Gang Qi within his body, and asked calmly.
"The Silver Envoy guided you to this holy land; of course, I knew you would come," the man in the black robe still had his back to Lin Hai.
Hearing this, Lin Hai was extremely vigilant. Those guys from the Ancient Heavenly Path were freaks; they were barely human-like, with tremendous strength. Before, he only knew that they preferred to act alone, but he didn't expect that this time, there were at least two of them.
Perhaps even more, which made Lin Hai concentrate fully.
"Rest assured, we disdain the victory of the many over the few," the other party seemed to be able to see through the minds of people, as Lin Hai just thought it, the other party explained.
"What does 'holy land' mean? What's so special about this place?" Lin Hai felt that the surroundings were very ordinary, just a small grove at the edge of the ring road that was seldom visited by people.
"The land where I stand is holy land," he stated.
"Such arrogant words, what are you looking for me for?" Lin Hai snorted coldly, thinking that the other party was merely posturing. He had seen too many people like this.
Either they were religious madmen, a bunch of fellows with abnormal beliefs and disturbed minds.
"It's not me looking for you, it's my God. My blood flows with divinity and the power of God. Before God descends, I am both the spokesperson and God Himself."
As expected, a religious madman. Ancient Heavenly Path must be a deeply hidden special religious sect.
"No matter what you are, what are you looking for me for?" Lin Hai asked.
"I am here to confirm whether you are L or King Yan," the other party did not disguise their intent and answered directly.
"Oh? What if I am?" Lin Hai asked.
"If you are, tell me what power lies behind you, who is your master? Then return with me to the Heavenly Path, and you will never set foot in the outside world again."
Lin Hai's brows furrowed. Was this an attempt to imprison him permanently?
As far as he knew, he hadn't sinned against the Heavenly Path Alliance before. At most, he had small conflicts with them, which was normal. Who didn't have minor frictions in the circles of assassins and mercenaries?
"And if I'm not?"
"If you're not, for disrupting God's plan and interfering with the Su Family's development, you will receive the graciousness of divine annihilation as punishment."
Lin Hai's expression turned colder.
Such bold words, to annihilate him, sounded nice, isn't that just wanting his life?!
"Who exactly are you? The silver angel bracelet, as far as I know, is quite powerful among you, right?"
"That's not an angel, it's a Divine Servant, a Silver Winged Divine Servant," the other party corrected, seemingly quite concerned about the difference in the name.
"Silver Winged Divine Servant? Isn't that just an angel? Does your Ancient Heavenly Path believe in God?" Lin Hai retorted, wanting to know more about his adversary.
"God has long perished; my God reigns eternal as the Emperor. My God is my father. Though a servant of God, I am but wings, not an Angel."
"Accept the punishment of God and perish."
"Hmph, thinking of killing me? What a big talker; don't bite your tongue." Lin Hai snorted coldly.
"It's not about killing you, but rather a grace from God; the mercy of God is vast, the might of God is like prison, lightning and rain are all graces."
"Grace my ass, believe it or not, I'll beat your ass until it prolapses?" Lin Hai began his filthy tirade again.
"Obstinate fool, kneel down and accept the grace."
Before his voice faded, the black robe whistled suddenly in the air.
Lin Hai had just raised his arm when his opponent's fist was already upon him.
Bang—
Both sides quickly retreated.
"So strong. Clearly, he only has the aura of a Super First-class Expert, yet he displays power and speed almost matching that of a Supreme Strong." Lin Hai was shocked and decided to go all out.
"You are strong, but according to my information, you're neither King Yan nor L." The opponent seemed quite certain.
"Hmph, King Yan is a Supreme Strong, of course, I'm not King Yan."
Lin Hai bluffed his way through, never intending to reveal his identity.
"But you could be L." The opponent was relentless.
"L my ass."
While speaking, the two clashed again in an instant.
Lin Hai dared not use the signature techniques of King Yan, instead resorting to all sorts of dirty and despicable tactics.
The opponent attacked ferociously, wave after wave, endlessly, as if the energy within never ran out, with astonishing speed. The techniques, although ancient, were highly effective.
In the midst of their battle, a large tree fell to the strength of their punches, crashing down and overturning the soil, dragging along grass and earth and forming a long trench.
Bang bang bang—
Blood seeped from the corner of Lin Hai's mouth; the opponent's strength was too profound, and he had already lost one-tenth of his Gang Qi in the brief exchange.
If this continued, he would eventually run out of Gang Qi.
"You're quite impressive. From your scent, I can tell you're only in your twenties, yet you've reached this level. In my memory, it seems that a person similar to you appeared a hundred years ago—your smell is very much alike. Perhaps they are one of your elders."
Although the black-robed figure's tone remained emotionless, his labored breathing revealed that the battle with Lin Hai had also drained a significant amount of his energy—he was not unbeatable.
"You've met someone with a similar aura to me? A hundred years ago? Just how old are you? What's the name of that similar person?" Lin Hai had always been oblivious of his origins, but he wouldn't give up any clue that could lead him closer to discovering his ancestry.
"That person, it seems his surname was Lin."
Lin Hai almost cried out in alarm, but his strong will and mental fortitude enabled him to suppress that shock.
The same aura as his own and the same surname, Lin—could this be a coincidence?
"I haven't come out in over a hundred years; this is not my era. Come with me, and I can let you live to see the next hundred years."
Lin Hai snorted coldly: "Stop the nonsense. Religious folks and Pyramid scheme peddlers are pretty much the same, all the same old tricks."
"If that's the case, I won't hold back anymore. Silver Envoy number 296, come out."
After the black-robed figure finished speaking, a similarly massive figure dropped from the tree behind Lin Hai, looking exactly like him in attire and demeanor.
Lin Hai felt his head growing bigger.
