Chapter 288: Someone's Going to Get in Trouble
Lin Yan stepped forward and immediately walked toward the group of informers. When Lin Yan reached them, he smiled and asked:
"Hey there, I heard you were discussing some matters about the Great Yan Dynasty. I'm quite interested. Could you tell me more?"
The group turned to the source of the voice. As they recognized him, one of them suddenly shouted, "Isn't this Lin Yan from the Great Yan Dynasty?!"
The crowd erupted into chaos. No one could believe they were seeing Lin Yan here in such an unexpected way!
"Lin Yan might come from a low-level dynasty like the Great Yan Dynasty, but his strength is not to be underestimated. He recently obtained an extraordinary item, the Golden Body Relic!"
"Yeah, and he fought the Tianying Dynasty a few days ago over the Dan River, defeating them completely."
"And he also took down the last member of the Moyan Dynasty, Shi Kun. Despite such strong opposition, Lin Yan managed to defeat them all."
The informer recounted all of Lin Yan's recent feats. Hearing this, all the warriors present were terrified and immediately became respectful. They knew how powerful Lin Yan was and didn't dare to provoke him.
The informer quickly shared everything he knew about the three people from the Great Yan Dynasty:
"They are currently at Qianyun Sect. News of them obtaining the sect's seal spread, and many warriors rushed there and surrounded them. They plan to snatch the seals from them."
"The Qianyun Sect is already packed with people, all surrounding those three. They're too scared to make any move."
After finishing, the informer pointed Lin Yan in the direction of Qianyun Sect.
"Thank you," Lin Yan said with a faint smile.
With that, Lin Yan immediately set off with Lin Dong and Xiao Yan toward Qianyun Sect.
As they watched Lin Yan leave, the group of informers sighed in relief and began to pity those surrounding Mo Ling and his companions:
"Who would've thought this killing machine also comes from the Great Yan Dynasty? His strength is incredible, and those two with him seem just as strong. This crowd is in for a rough time..."
"Yeah, those people are going to be in trouble. Lin Yan is not a kind person. Look at what happened to the Moyan Dynasty. Calling him an executioner wouldn't be too much... They're doomed."
"Sigh."
With that, they sighed and watched Lin Yan speed away.
Lin Yan, not wasting any time, quickly led Lin Dong and Xiao Yan toward Qianyun Sect.
Meanwhile, at Qianyun Sect, the place was already crowded. Everyone's attention was focused on three figures within a glowing circle, each holding a unique seal that emitted a faint glow. Many eyes were greedily fixed on those seals, and when they looked at the three people, there was a hint of mocking schadenfreude.
Surrounded by this pack of wolves, the three figures appeared as helpless sheep, awaiting their fate. These three were none other than Mo Ling and his companions, who had obtained the sect's seals. They now faced a dire situation, surrounded by warriors from four major dynasties and other powerful individuals.
The excitement of obtaining the seals had completely vanished in the face of such a predicament.
One man in a green robe laughed and said, "Hand over those seals! Does a low-level dynasty like yours deserve such treasures?"
"No way! We worked hard to get these seals. We're not giving them up just like that!" Mo Ling shouted back.
"The news is out. More people will come to take those seals from you. You might as well hand them over to me now and save yourself some pain," the green-robed man insisted.
"We've held out this long, and the news is out. If Lin Yan hears about this, he'll definitely come to help us!" said the burly Man Shan.
"Even if he hears, it'll take time for him to get here. And with the current situation, he might get dragged into this mess too. He's already helped us a lot," Mo Ling said with a bitter smile.
"If worse comes to worst, we'll just hand over the seals. Our lives are more important," sighed Du Yun.
"Let's wait a bit longer. Maybe Lin Yan is already on his way," Mo Ling said quietly.
"You'd better not push us too far! If Lin Yan hears about this, he'll come to help us, and then you might not survive!" Man Shan yelled at the green-robed man.
"Lin Yan? The one who wiped out the Moyan Dynasty? Do you think just because he defeated them, he can beat us? That's ridiculous! Besides, who knows if he's even still alive."
"Do you think you can rule this ancient battleground just because you defeated the Moyan Dynasty? Dynasties vary in strength. The Moyan Dynasty was just the weakest among the high-level dynasties," the green-robed man mocked.
Hearing that Lin Yan's reputation couldn't scare them, Man Shan felt his last bit of hope shatter.
Just then, Mo Ling whispered, "Even if we have to give up the seals, we shouldn't make it easy for these guys." He looked at the closest group, which belonged to four high-level dynasties, all led by experts at the first stage of Nirvana.
"Enough waiting. Our patience has run out. If you don't hand over the seals, we'll take them by force!" the green-robed man shouted.
He then struck out with a light imprint, which sped up as it passed through the barrier, aiming straight at Mo Ling and his companions.
As the light imprint was about to hit them, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Mo Ling and caught the light imprint with his left hand, crushing it.
"Who dares interfere with my business? Identify yourself!" the green-robed man roared in anger.
