Chapter 121: The Method of Obtaining Memories

~7 min read 1,305 words

Bang!

"Pfft... wah!"

Lin Potian punched this lackey square in the face; the latter was sent flying, all his teeth were knocked out, and he collapsed to the ground, twitching a few times before his legs gave a final kick...

With more air going out than coming in, the lackey died after only a few struggles.

"Hiss!"

Sharp gasps of air echoed through the scene. The man known as Boss Mu Bai had his eyes widened in shock; he ran over to check on his subordinate, his footsteps stumbling.

Upon confirming that he had truly been killed by a single punch, this Boss Mu Bai turned deathly pale. This was his most capable subordinate, yet he had actually been killed by a single punch from this newly arrived fat man?

Did this not mean that this fat man could also kill him with a single punch?

"Li Mubai, greetings to the new boss. May I ask for your name?"

Li Mubai's attitude did a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in an instant, and he knelt directly before Lin Potian!

Lin Potian raised an eyebrow; this man was truly a hero, for he knew how to adapt to circumstances!

"My name is Huang Gou. Just call me Boss Gou."

Lin Potian spoke indifferently. Naturally, he would not reveal his true name; since he was using the identity of 'Huang Gou', he would use it to the end!

"Greetings, Boss Gou!"

"Greetings, Boss Gou!"

"..."

Li Mubai waved his hand, leading his few lackeys to shout aloud in unison.

Lin Potian nodded slightly and looked toward Di Tian, introducing him in a deep voice: "This is your deputy boss, Li Tie. Get to know him."

Li Mubai felt a slight resentment in his heart. He had just been the top dog, and now he had become the third-in-command; this damn fat man was truly bullying people!

But the situation was stronger than the man, so Li Mubai led his lackeys to kneel and kowtow to Di Tian as well.

Every expression on his face was captured by Lin Potian, who had already made up his mind: this man could not be kept!

Being so popular and having such high aspirations, he would surely betray him if given the chance; keeping him was a disaster!

Furthermore, Lin Potian wanted to test whether he could obtain memories as he had when killing Li Tie last time.

In that case...

"Li Mubai, come here for a moment."

Lin Potian called out and walked toward the depths of the mine.

"This..."

Hearing this, Li Mubai felt a little terrified, but thinking of how he had just pledged his loyalty, and that there were many lackeys here who were loyal to him...

He then stiffened his neck and followed him in.

Lin Potian walked until they were out of everyone's sight before stopping. He turned to look at Li Mubai, who had followed, and smiled: "Mubai, I didn't bring you here for anything else, just a small matter."

"Boss Gou, what is it?" Li Mubai cupped his hands and took half a step back, feeling a bit apprehensive inside.

Lin Potian stepped closer and placed a hand on Li Mubai's shoulder. The fat on the face of the 'Huang Gou' disguise trembled, and he chuckled: "Of course, it is..."

"To kill you!"

Having said that, Lin Potian's expression turned cold, and he struck out immediately with a full-force punch!

Even though Li Mubai had been on guard, it was to no avail; this was a trap from the start, and Lin Potian intended for him to die!

As for after his death, Lin Potian could simply find someone from the Heaven-Reaching Order to replace him!

No one would even know about Li Mubai's death.

Moreover, while walking earlier, Lin Potian had already chosen the person to bring out and had briefly informed them of the ins and outs of the situation!

And this chosen person was the Lin Family Patriarch, Lin Bufan.

Lin Bufan's cultivation had already reached the Peak Great Emperor realm; although he was practically at the bottom of the barrel here, he didn't need to fight, just put on a show. And since Lin Bufan could serve as Patriarch, he naturally had a few tricks up his sleeve!

Bang!

Lin Potian's iron fist struck Li Mubai's heart directly!

"Ah, ah!"

His heart was pierced through with a boom. Perhaps because Li Mubai's strength was indeed stronger, he managed to let out two screams before being killed!

To be precise, it wasn't that Li Mubai was strong, but that Lin Potian wanted to verify a question.

Previously, when he had beaten Huang Gou and the others into blood mists, he hadn't been able to obtain their memories, but Li Tie had left behind a complete corpse, and he had obtained memories. Did this mean that as long as he didn't blow them up directly, he could obtain memories?

The next instant, a mysterious light flew out from Li Mubai's corpse.

A smile curled at the corners of Lin Potian's mouth, and he pressed his palms together: "Heaven bless me, I guessed right."

Whoosh...!

The mysterious light instantly submerged into Lin Potian's brow, but he did not digest it immediately. Instead, he released Lin Bufan from the Heaven-Reaching Order first, gave him a few instructions, and only then closed his eyes to digest it.

What made Lin Potian most delighted was that Li Mubai's memories were actually quite extensive!

Name: Li Mubai

Background: A Black Oil worker at the Burial Ground of the God of Yuan'an, an expendable piece of trash in the Endless Divine Land. Cultivation at the peak of the Ascension Realm; he came here to dig for Black Oil to improve his cultivation and reach the Pseudo-God realm.

Next move: Run away when leaving the mine in three days to escape the interception and killing by those above!

Lin Potian's mind shook slightly. Run away when leaving the mine to prevent interception?

In that case, that Cai Xukun was likely also waiting for him to leave the mine to intercept and kill him and Di Tian, and plunder their resources!

But the most critical thing was that he hadn't obtained memories regarding what exactly Black Oil was. It was also possible that Black Oil was common knowledge in the Endless Divine Land, so it wasn't mentioned in the memories.

"What's that noise?"

At the same time, outside, Li Mubai's few lackeys heard the sound and immediately wanted to rush inside!

Seeing this, Di Tian stepped out to block them, winking and gesturing: "Brothers, our Boss Gou and Brother Mubai are just getting intimate; they made a few sounds, it's perfectly normal!"

Several lackeys were stunned, "Intimate???"

Di Tian gave a meaningful smile, "You understand."

"We don't understand! There was a mine collapse ahead, Li Mubai and Boss Gou are likely caught in it, we have to go take a look!"

Li Mubai's lackeys did not understand at all what Di Tian meant, and swarmed inside.

"Hey, hey!"

Di Tian followed them in anxiously, feeling in his heart that this was completely failing to stall for time; he only hoped Lin Potian could be faster, otherwise, if these miners digging for Black Oil went in, wouldn't it be exposed?

But if Lin Potian knew Di Tian was working so hard to block these miners for him, he would only feel it was unnecessary, because there was no difference between knowing and not knowing; at worst, he would just kill them all and replace them with his own people!

As long as he confirmed how to extract memories, and being deep in this mine where heaven would not answer and the earth would not respond, Lin Potian actually had fewer scruples; in fact, disposing of these miners was his only choice now!
