Chapter 17

The cold-hearted boss, whose face was blue with cold, watched helplessly as Ye Lin drank a large cup of hot tea containing a massive amount of sleeping potion, then wiped his mouth as if nothing had happened.

The cold-hearted boss's eyes were filled with shock.

"Why? Why is the sleeping potion ineffective on you?"

"Want to know?" Ye Lin asked with a smile.

The cold-hearted boss nodded.

"Tell me first, how many people know about my ability to regenerate organs?" Ye Lin countered.

The cold-hearted boss's lips were already purple from the cold.

"Just me... That day I saw you sell two kidneys and your corneas and leave. I figured you wouldn't live long, so I thought I might as well make use of the waste, bring you back, harvest the remaining useful organs, and collect the money while I was at it."

"But I didn't expect that even though you were blind, you could still move through the black market quickly like nothing was wrong. I became interested in you. After some investigation, I discovered you were an orphan, so I had my men set a trap and brought you here."

Ye Lin slowly approached the cold-hearted boss.

"Is it really just you who knows? Why do I feel... like you're lying to me?"

"Because I wanted to keep the secret of organ regeneration all to myself, I didn't tell anyone, not even my subordinates. They only knew they were supposed to kidnap you, but they didn't know why," the cold-hearted boss said truthfully.

"Alright, I've told you everything I know. Now you should tell me why you aren't afraid of the sleeping potion, right?" the cold-hearted boss pressed.

"Oh? Do you want me to tell you... or do you want me to tell the person behind you!"

Ye Lin took the cold-hearted boss's knife and chopped off his left hand in one stroke. The arm, frozen into an ice block, hit the ground and instantly shattered into ice shards. A black miniature camera that had been clutched in his hand also fell out at that moment.

Ye Lin leaned down and, amidst the cold-hearted boss's pale complexion, picked up the camera. He then directly activated a Forbidden Curse; red-purple karmic fire burned fiercely, reducing the camera to ashes.

"Who is the person behind you?" Ye Lin held the knife to the cold-hearted boss's neck.

"Heh, just kill me then," the cold-hearted boss said, closing his eyes as if accepting his fate. "If I don't tell you, only I will die. If I tell you, my family will all..."

"As you wish."

Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Lin had already raised his hand and brought the knife down. The cold-hearted boss's head rolled away like a watermelon, an expression of disbelief still on his face, as if he hadn't expected Ye Lin to strike so cleanly and decisively.

After dealing with the cold-hearted boss, Ye Lin aimed the knife at his own stomach. Immediately after, he performed a very standard seppuku and took out his own stomach.

It could be seen that his stomach was wrapped in several layers of plastic bags; the food he ate that contained the sleeping potion was all inside the plastic bags and had not entered his stomach to undergo digestion at all.

Although he had an immortal body, toxins were still effective on him; they just couldn't kill him. When he was wrapping it earlier, he was afraid the plastic bags would leak, so he had wrapped it in five whole layers.

As for why he used plastic bags... firstly, because plastic is a high-molecular compound that cannot be degraded by substances in nature, let alone corroded by stomach acid; secondly, this stuff is cheap.

After removing all the food containing the sleeping potion from his stomach, Ye Lin stuffed his organs back into his belly in a messy fashion and let them heal.

To be safe, he didn't intend to let a single person in this farmhouse go. Ye Lin directly activated a Forbidden Curse.

"Forbidden Curse—Spirits Return to the Afterlife Realm!"

【Forbidden Curse—Spirits Return to the Afterlife Realm: The Forbidden Curse Master's brain cells die at a rate of 100 million per second, forming a barrier sealed by countless undead creatures. Before the Forbidden Curse Master dies, this barrier cannot be broken.】

【Note: If the barrier is attacked, it will accelerate the death of the Forbidden Curse Master's brain cells.】

The moment Spirits Return to the Afterlife Realm was activated, countless white, bone-white skeleton warriors crawled out from underground, their hollow eye sockets burning with a greenish-blue soul fire.

Immediately after, headless knights, bone dragons, liches, and all kinds of undead creatures emerged continuously, surrounding the entire farmhouse. Unless Ye Lin was killed, no one could escape from this farmhouse.

The people inside the farmhouse were terrified. Where had they ever seen such a terrifying scene? This moment was like a natural disaster.

Fortunately, those undead creatures didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them; they just stood quietly around the farmhouse.

Ye Lin walked out, pushing open the private room door, holding the knife in one hand and the cold-hearted boss's head in the other.

"Ah? Boss?"

Wang Jingli, who was guarding the door, was scared silly. Although he had heard some strange movements earlier, he remembered the cold-hearted boss's order that no one was allowed in without his command, so they had been guarding the door the whole time.

But he never expected that guarding the door would result in the cold-hearted boss's corpse.

"Get him! Take this brat down!" Wang Jingli shouted. The surrounding bodyguards rushed up instantly; they were all Class-Transferred, but their levels weren't very high.

"Forbidden Curse—Karmic Fire Burns the Heavens!"

Ye Lin cast a Forbidden Curse, and most of the people near him died.

"You... why were you able to wake up?"

Wang Jingli was so scared he fell to the ground, his face deathly pale. He clearly remembered confirming multiple times that Ye Lin had already passed out.

"Thanks to you, I woke up. By the way, I have a question for you."

Ye Lin smiled as he approached Wang Jingli.

"Who is the person behind the scenes?"

Wang Jingli's pupils shrank violently, and his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, but he didn't speak.

"Not talking, are you?"

A cruel smile appeared on Ye Lin's face. He raised his hand and brought the knife down, stabbing it into the chest of a bodyguard nearby who hadn't stopped breathing yet.

That bodyguard's face was full of disbelief, staring blankly at Ye Lin. He wasn't the one talking, so why were you stabbing him?

"You're a devil!"

The terror in Wang Jingli's eyes grew even more intense. The teenager in front of him was simply the incarnation of a demon, killing people so casually.

How could he know that when Ye Lin was testing his immortal body earlier, it was much crueler than this.

"So, can you talk now?" Ye Lin pulled out the knife, walked to the side of another bodyguard who had been heavily wounded by Karmic Fire Burns the Heavens, and asked Wang Jingli.

"You can't afford to provoke the person behind the scenes. I advise you to leave!" Wang Jingli gritted his teeth and said.

Responding to him was another expressionless slash from Ye Lin, and another corpse appeared on the ground.

After killing this person, Ye Lin didn't go to harm the bodyguards this time, but walked in front of Wang Jingli.

"Whether I can afford to provoke the person behind the scenes is not important. But if you don't talk, you will die right now. Think it over yourself."

As he spoke, Ye Lin raised the knife.

Wang Jingli's terror reached its peak instantly.

"I'll talk! I'll talk! The person behind the boss is the Underground King of Qingcheng, Kensen!"
