"Brother Lin, be careful!"

Just then, a delicate cry rang out, and a white figure suddenly appeared beside Lin Yun.

"puff--"

At the same time, a black longsword pierced through the white figure.

"Longing!!!"

Not far away, a heartbroken voice rang out.

"Longing?"

Lin Yunlian turned around and saw this scene, and was shocked.

Someone actually tried to assassinate him?

How could he not have noticed?

Guan Xiangsi actually blocked the attack for him?

The next moment, Lin Yun looked up and saw the assassin, a figure with a somewhat ethereal appearance and a blackish complexion.

"Shadow Clan?"

Lin Yun said in a deep voice.

He seemed to have seen this kind of person in the race information of the cosmic trading system. It seemed to be a race called the Shadow Clan. Their bodies were illusory, like shadows. Most importantly, they could conceal their killing intent very well. They were practically born assassins.

"boom--"

As he spoke, he took a step forward and threw a punch at his opponent.

"Failed? Damn it!"

The Shadow Clan member was slightly angry when his sword strike failed. As he retreated, he subtly shook his sword, which immediately made Guan Xiangsi's wound even worse.

"puff--"

Guan Xiangsi's body was pierced by the sword, and her face was already extremely pale. This time, her face turned flushed, and she spat out a long spurt of blood. Her whole body was thrown into the distance.

"You're asking for it!"

Upon seeing this, Lin Yun's expression instantly turned extremely cold, and he spoke in an icy tone.

Before the Shadow Clan member could retreat far, he punched him.

"How is this possible? You're only at the early stage of level nine, how can you be so strong?" Just as Lin Yun's punch was about to hit him, the Shadow Clan member's face turned pale with shock, and he exclaimed.

"puff--"

The next moment, his body made a cracking sound, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and then his body flew backward.

His strength was actually not weak, but he did not expect Lin Yun to be so strong. Caught off guard, he was seriously injured by Lin Yun.

"Yang Yi, Yang Shiyi, kill this man!"

Lin Yun left a message and then disappeared in the direction Guan Xiangsi had flown backward.

It had only been a short time since Guan Xiangsi was injured.

In an instant, Lin Yun pulled the other person into his arms.

Her white dress was nearly half-stained with blood, and Guan Xiangsi's frail body was barely breathing.

"Brother Lin..."

Seeing Lin Yun hug her, Guan Xiangsi gave a strained smile, which was quite difficult.

"Don't speak, I'll treat you right away," Lin Yun said.

call--

As he spoke, Lin Yun waved his hand and released a medical device.

At the same time, he fed Guan Xiangsi precious healing pills one by one.

"younger sister!"

At this moment, a young man teleported here and, seeing Guan Xiangsi so badly injured, said with great sorrow.

This young man was Guan Xiangsi's older brother, and Lin Yun's only apprentice, Guan Jinshui.

"Xiangsi, are you alright?"

Lin Mengmeng, who was cultivating in another direction with the help of the rain, was also shocked when she saw their warship being attacked. At this moment, she also teleported over and looked at Guan Xiangsi anxiously.

"Not good..." At this moment, Lin Yun's expression changed.

He discovered that Guan Xiangsi possessed a strange power that had seeped into her limbs and bones.

This strange power is beyond the reach of ordinary medical equipment. In fact, the pills he gave Guan Xiangsi were not very effective. On the contrary, some of the medicinal power clashed with the strange power in Guan Xiangsi's body, making her injuries even more severe.

"puff--"

Sure enough, Guan Xiangsi's body trembled slightly, and she spat out mouthfuls of blood again. Her life force was also rapidly decreasing.

"Xiangsi, I'm sorry, I didn't know..." Lin Yun said, her face pale with regret.

Guan Xiangsi's breath was extremely weak and rapidly declining; if this continued, the chances of her surviving were very slim.

"Hehe, Shadow Clan, born assassins, this is no joke! This girl is doomed! I didn't expect that someone from the Shadow Clan would target Brother Lin. But Brother Lin is lucky, someone actually blocked the attack for you..." Just then, a teasing voice rang out again from not far away.

"Did you send that Shadow Clan member to assassinate me?" Lin Yun suddenly looked up at the speaker and roared angrily.

The speaker was none other than Mingdu. At this moment, he had already picked the Heavenly Evolution Flower. However, he didn't pay any attention to the Heavenly Evolution Flower in his hand to Lin Yun. In Lin Yun's view, the most important thing in this world was the people around him.

Let alone the Heavenly Flower, even the most precious things are not as important as the people around you.

"First you sent people to attack our warships, then you seized the Heavenly Evolution Flower. You used both of these things to distract me, and then you had the Shadow Clan assassinate me. You really have a good plan," Lin Yun said coldly.

“Brother Lin, you can’t say things like that. We are people bound by rules. I admit that I ordered the attack on that warship, but I didn’t know it was your warship. That warship looked too much like one of my enemies’ warships. I thought it was my enemy’s. Is that your warship? I’m so sorry…” Mingdu said in a surprised tone.

"Boom—Boom—"

As they were talking, on the other side, many warships were still attacking Lin Yun and his group's warships.

“That’s your warship. You should have told me sooner. How would I know it’s your warship if you didn’t tell me? How could I stop the attack if you didn’t tell me it was your warship? It’s impossible for me to attack it even if you told me it was your warship. I can only order the attack if you didn’t tell me…” Mingdu rambled on.

"Heh." Lin Yun sneered.

Mingdu's words seemed very amiable, but they sounded extremely harsh to him. Now, he only regretted not developing in the Cordis Empire earlier, allowing Mingdu to gain the upper hand.

On the other side, their warships, thanks to the addition of Sheng Yi and Sheng Er, along with the combined strength of nearly 200,000 subordinates, had a defensive capability that exceeded his expectations. At least for the short term, they were safe.

Therefore, he was not so eager, and his humble request was to stop the attack.

“Brother Lin…” Mingdu was still rambling on when Guan Xiangsi finally spoke with difficulty.

"Xiangsi, I'm sorry, it's all my fault that you..." Lin Yun lowered his head and looked at the delicate girl in his arms, feeling very guilty.

“Brother Lin… Xiangsi… it’s alright… you must… not blame yourself… this moment… is the happiest moment for Xiangsi… I have found… my soulmate… I can… die for him… I am so happy…” Guan Xiangsi’s face flushed, turning as pale as paper, and she smiled weakly as she comforted him.

Hearing Guan Xiangsi's dying words, Lin Yun felt a tremor in his heart.
