Chapter 89

Since Lin Zhennan revealed his secret.

Yu Canghai also said there was no need to hide anymore; if he could make the other party produce the Bixie Sword Manual, that would be best.

As for Yu Canghai not stating outright that the Qingcheng Sect would spare the Fuli Escort Agency—Lin Zhennan, being as shrewd as he was, likely understood that Yu Canghai would never do such a thing.

Thus, Yu Canghai had no need to lie.

Moreover, even if Lin Zhennan did not reveal the secret of the Bixie Sword Manual now, he had ways to force him to speak.

"The Bixie Sword Manual," Lin Zhennan shook his head. "Yu Canghai, don't say I don't know the Bixie Sword Manual—even if I did, I would never hand it over to a scoundrel like you."

Lin Zhennan knew full well that if the Bixie Sword Manual fell into Yu Canghai's hands, it would be a misfortune for the martial arts world.

And he truly did not know where the Bixie Sword Manual was.

This point, Lin Pingzhi—who had joined the Myriad Worlds chat group—had not told his father.

"Is that so?" Yu Canghai glanced at Lin Zhennan with a cold gaze. "Lin Zhennan, perhaps you don't care about the Fuli Escort Agency, but I've heard you have a son. If you tell me about the Bixie Sword Manual, I might spare your son."

"Spare my son?" Lin Zhennan said with a strange expression. "I think you're incapable of that."

His son had broken through into the Primordial Realm; Lin Zhennan had personally felt the immense power his son displayed not long ago.

After breaking into the Primordial Realm, Lin Pingzhi, through years of cultivation, had nearly mastered the power of the Primordial level.

And as time passed, his strength continued to grow rapidly.

This was naturally due to the subsequent gains from watching Luo Fu's live stream.

Precisely because of this, Lin Pingzhi was deeply grateful to the group owner, the great god.

Without the group owner, Lin Pingzhi would have had to lead his family to disband the Fuli Escort Agency and hide deep in the mountains.

Otherwise, hiding in a major city and being discovered by Yu Canghai would have been extremely dangerous.

Unless Lin Pingzhi's strength improved through the Myriad Worlds chat group to the point he no longer feared Yu Canghai, he could not appear openly before the world.

But now, through the group owner, Lin Pingzhi had acquired that power—and it had been drastically shortened.

Facing the approaching Qingcheng Sect and Yu Canghai, Lin Pingzhi had not asked his father to disband the Fuli Escort Agency—this was Lin Zhennan's confidence in his son.

Even the legendary top-tier experts of the Wu Lin might not be his son's match.

Precisely because of this, Lin Zhennan's expression had turned strange when he heard Yu Canghai speak of sparing his son.

"Incapable?" Yu Canghai laughed aloud, his laughter cold. "Lin Zhennan, you're no match for me even in one round—do you really think I can't handle your son?"

"That's right," Lin Zhennan nodded seriously.

He truly believed Yu Canghai could not defeat his son.

"Heh…" Yu Canghai's smiling expression froze, his eyes filled with icy killing intent.

Lin Zhennan was being arrogant even as he faced death.

Of course, though Yu Canghai wanted to kill Lin Zhennan, the Bixie Sword Manual had yet to surface, so he would not kill him yet.

At the very least, he would extract some information first.

Yu Canghai claimed he had many methods of torture.

"Lin Zhennan, don't worry—I won't kill you. I'll only make you understand what it means to wish for death," Yu Canghai said coldly, his figure flickering, instantly appearing before Lin Zhennan.

His right hand twisted into a claw, lashing out toward Lin Zhennan.

Thin strands of black light coiled around his palm—if this strike landed on Lin Zhennan, he would not die, but he would suffer terribly.

Yet facing this attack, what puzzled Yu Canghai was.
