"Let's see who dares to lay a hand on me!"
Just as An Qingge had prepared herself for certain death and a great battle was about to break out, a loud shout rang in everyone's ears.
"Who? So arrogant! I'll kill you first..." Fu Haifeng shouted impatiently, but then he saw someone and immediately froze, his voice becoming stammering: "Zhang, Zhang Lin?"
"Great!"
Zhang Lin strolled over from a short distance away, his tone growing colder, "With the beast tide at hand, you still have the mind to pull this stunt? You guys are really something!"
"Why are you back!" Fu Haifeng was shocked and obediently took a few steps back, standing behind several of his men.
Zhang Lin ignored him, walked slowly to An Qingge, gently tucked her messy hair behind her ear, and whispered, "I'm back. Leave the rest to me!"
"It's good that you're back." An Qingge almost burst into tears.
She had truly prepared herself to die.
In order not to become a bargaining chip for others to threaten Zhang Lin, if she were really captured, she would have no choice but to end her own life.
But who would want to die if they could live?
In particular, she was pregnant with her and Zhang Lin's child.
Fortunately, Zhang Lin is back...
"Did he come back alone?" Seeing Zhang Lin and An Qingge talking, Fu Haifeng took the opportunity to quickly tell his subordinates, "Send men to scout outside Hope City and see how many people he brought back!"
He was so bold because the city lord had disappeared, and Zhang Lin and the vanguard were tied down by the beast tide.
Otherwise, how could someone who is even inferior to Peng Bing dare to do such a thing?
But now Zhang Lin has actually returned...
This completely disrupted his plans.
He hasn't caught An Qingge and the others yet, so he has no leverage. How can he control Zhang Lin?
If Zhang Lin were to return with a group of people, even if it's not many... several hundred, the situation would be completely different.
But before Fu Haifeng could find out the situation, Zhang Lin and An Qingge exchanged a few words, then Zhang Lin turned around and looked at him.
"Captain Zhang, your woman actually refused to come to your aid. I'm just trying to help you, please don't misunderstand."
Fu Haifeng was startled and quickly tried to explain.
"Do you think I'm a fool?"
Zhang Lin held his Miao sword, pointed it at him, and said coldly, "What you've done is enough to make you die a hundred times over. I'm being merciful, so I'll let you die once... So, thank me for my mercy."
"Zhang Lin!" Upon hearing this, Fu Haifeng was both shocked and furious, but he said with a fierce but weak voice, "I don't know how many people you brought, but you don't have as many as I do right now. If a fight breaks out, it's hard to say who will win or lose. Don't be so arrogant!"
"Arrogant?" Zhang Lin sneered. "What does it matter how many people are involved in killing you? I'll kill you if I want to, that's all!"
"Quick, block my way!"
Fu Haifeng panicked. Even while hiding in the crowd, he didn't forget to call his men to come closer. Only when he was surrounded by dozens of people did he feel a little more at ease. Then he ordered his other men, "Attack! They already outnumber us, so one more Zhang Lin won't make a difference. Kill them all!"
At this point, he knew that there was no room for reconciliation between him and Zhang Lin, so he had no choice but to take drastic measures.
But how could Zhang Lin let this battle break out? So, he directly threw out his Miao sword, using his [Control] ability to wield it at incredible speed, heading straight for Fu Haifeng.
Many people know that Zhang Lin can teleport, and Fu Haifeng was also on guard against this move, which is why he stood in the crowd.
If you, Zhang Lin, teleport over here, you'll be surrounded immediately. Do you dare to come over?
In fact, Zhang Lin certainly dared to do so.
But now, he has discovered a more efficient way to kill.
The Miao sword was small, and it flew at an extremely fast speed, so fast that no one could keep up with it. In the blink of an eye, a long Miao sword was embedded in Fu Haifeng's chest.
"Uh, hoho..."
Fu Haifeng himself didn't react in time. He had been staring intently at Zhang Lin, but the man didn't move. With a flick of his wrist, the knife disappeared. Then, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, accompanied by a chilling sensation. Looking down, he saw a knife stuck in his body.
"Boss!"
"Brother Fu!"
Those around him were shocked.
This move is truly impossible to defend against.
Fu Haifeng stood in the middle of them, surrounded by them, but he was still killed by Zhang Lin with a single blow...
Who can defend against that?
Those who were preparing to attack, upon hearing Fu Haifeng's order, slowed down their pace.
The boss just gave the order to attack.
The boss died the next second, so what's the point of fighting anymore?
"Qingge, point out those who are forcing you."
Zhang Lin's tone was cold.
Knowing him well, An Qingge knew that her man was about to unleash a massacre.
She hated those people so much that she didn't hold back and named out the leaders of the external forces who had allied with Fu Haifeng.
Those she pointed at seemed to have been called by the Grim Reaper, and they all retreated, fearing that the Miao sword would be plunged into their chests at any moment.
"Brothers, things have come to this point. We must kill Zhang Lin, or we will all die!" Knowing that he was doomed, someone resorted to scare tactics to urge the others to fight to the death.
Just then, the man who had been scouting for news from outside the city returned. He was stunned to see the dead Fu Haifeng, but after being questioned by the leader of another faction, he still revealed the information he had gathered.
