He kept his body pressed low, sticking to the shadows cast by the dense vegetation along the canyon’s edge, and slowly crept toward a settlement on the far left of the valley—the one most isolated from the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The buildings there were the most sparse, with enough distance between them to make it the perfect place to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t kill one family only to stir up the entire tribe’s hornet’s nest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, Lin Ye’s figure moved like a phantom, slipping into a crude hut constructed from giant banana leaves and some kind of plant fiber mixed with mud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The light inside the hut was dim, and the air was filled with a nearly suffocating stench.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excrement and the half-eaten, rotting carcasses of mutated beasts were piled haphazardly on the ground, sometimes less than a meter apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he entered, two rough, violent snarls erupted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ye’s gaze swept across the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two male members of the Shadow Scale Race, clearly more powerfully built than the ones he had encountered outside, were staring him down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a moment’s hesitation, they let out menacing growls. Their limbs, covered in black Scale Armor, tensed with power, and they launched themselves at Lin Ye like two arrows loosed from a bow, their sharp bone claws extended!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Lin Ye caught a glimpse of movement in the deeper shadows of the hut. Several more slender figures, clutching something, scurried behind a partition into an inner room amid panicked shrieks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ye’s expression didn’t waver in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the two charging males, he flicked his wrist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star-Piercing Spear, like a venomous dragon, shot out two spear shadows in an instant, too fast for the naked eye to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Extreme speed and power merged perfectly in that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two males’ forward charge came to an abrupt halt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The savage light in their eyes had yet to fade, but a bloody hole had already been punched clean through each of their throats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A torrent of inky-green blood gushed out. They couldn’t even let out a cry of pain before their bodies went limp and collapsed. After a few twitches, they fell completely still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An instant kill!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without even a glance at the corpses on the ground, Lin Ye darted into the back room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several more shrill cries, filled with panic and terror, rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene in the inner room came into view.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three slender female members of the Shadow Scale Race were huddled in a corner, their eyes wide with terror as they stared at the uninvited guest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind them cowered an even smaller, younger Shadow Scale whelp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This whelp looked to be recently born. Its Scale Armor hadn’t even fully grown in, leaving large patches of fleshy pink skin exposed, making it look ugly and fragile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides them, in the farthest corner of the room, an elderly female with a hunched back trembled all over. The scales covering her body were a faded, sickly white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ye understood instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the \"women and children\" of this Shadow Scale family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ye’s gaze was as cold as ten-thousand-year-old ice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t hesitate for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Star-Piercing Spear in his hand carved a cold arc through the dim room. With a whistle of air, it aimed straight for the three younger females, the ones who still possessed some fighting ability!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Women and children? So what?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An image of Zhang Fu’s face flashed through Lin Ye’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He was from Linchuan City. He said his wife, children, parents—his whole family—was dead.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He was all alone, with no one left to care for.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Even so, at that moment, Lin Ye had seen the loneliness, the grief, and the bone-deep hatred in that cynical, shrewd man’s eyes.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’When Linchuan City fell, did these invading members of the Celestial Abyss Race show any mercy to human women and children as they slaughtered them?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’No!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Since they didn’t, he wouldn’t feel any burden on his conscience either!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’From the moment they descended upon Blue Star, the feud between humanity and the Celestial Abyss has been a blood debt that can only be settled by annihilation.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Mercy for the enemy is cruelty to one’s own people.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Wiping out their race, slaughtering every last one—that was the only way to answer this war, the highest ’respect’ he could show these aliens!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear’s shadow swept across, and three sprays of inky-green blood bloomed violently in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three females didn’t even have a chance to offer any effective resistance before they were sliced in half at the waist, their innards and blood spilling across the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thick smell of blood instantly filled the entire room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"WHIMPER... WHIMPER...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the elderly member of the Shadow Scale Race trembled even more violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It prostrated itself on the ground, letting out unintelligible pleas, its golden, slitted pupils filled with utter submission and begging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, the whelp beside it, which was about the size of a human child, began to imitate the elder, repeatedly kowtowing to Lin Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tip of Lin Ye’s spear paused slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1015,"2026-06-06T10:31:47.882Z",1,"novelbin.me","1472de3688d9b178a26d654cb04b2252c56026fa48f1bb44fcc1fb07ce4ff72c","how-do-we-play-if-this-boss-isn-t-nerfed-chapter-214","how-do-we-play-if-this-boss-isn-t-nerfed-chapter-212",250,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhow-do-we-play-if-this-boss-isn-t-nerfed-cover.jpg"]
