Chapter 256: Miserable Again
Completely surrounded, Lin Yun racked his brain for a countermeasure. The battle so far had shown he was at an absolute disadvantage; a head-on fight was clearly unwise.
His opponents outnumbered him and outclassed him in strength. His only option now was to find a chance to escape.
Just as Lin Yun was pondering, two figures rushed out of the Mysterious Forest. When he saw them, Lin Yun’s eyes lit up. ’The merciful Buddha has arrived to save me!’
The two figures were none other than the Monk and the Daoist, who had been recuperating in the Mysterious Forest. Thanks to the effects of the Spring Breeze Soft Rain Pill, their injuries were mostly healed. While not a full recovery, they were most of the way there.
Just as Lin Yun saw them, the Monk and Daoist also spotted him. Seeing Lin Yun cornered by four Ghost-faced Masked People, the two of them burst out laughing.
They naturally knew about the Ghost-faced Masked People—the mysterious organization that had slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians in the Southeast Domain. Furthermore, judging by the auras of the four surrounding Lin Yun, all of them were experts at the Third Level of the Primordial Ocean Realm.
"Haha, Lin Yun, you’re finally getting what you deserve! The Buddha has opened his eyes!" the Monk laughed heartily.
"Boundless Celestial Venerable. Lin Yun, you reap what you sow," the Daoist added.
The two of them were inwardly ecstatic. Facing four experts at the Third Level of the Primordial Ocean Realm, they didn’t think Lin Yun had any chance of escape.
At the same time, hearing the Monk and Daoist call out Lin Yun’s name, the woman who had been fighting him earlier spoke up. "You’re Lin Yun? Could you be the Lin Yun who obtained the inheritance of the Thunder God Hall?"
Lin Yun didn’t answer her question. The Monk and Daoist were laughing off to the side, but they didn’t dare get any closer. Are you kidding? Lin Yun was in mortal danger. There was no way they were going to get involved. As long as they could watch these four kill Lin Yun, the Monk and Daoist would be satisfied.
The two of them cackled and mocked Lin Yun, but they failed to notice the wicked smile that appeared on his face as he looked at them.
