Chapter 1051: Chapter 1023: Artifact Refiner Guild? Smash!

On the Nine Nether Continent, Artifact Refiners were transcendent existences who forged magic equipment using special materials.

In people’s hearts, Artifact Masters enjoyed extremely high honor and status.

Even colossal powers like the Three Great Empires did not dare become their enemies, and could only curry favor.

Yet at this moment, in the Artifact Refiner Guild of the Jialan Imperial Capital, the Artifact Refiner Guild President Ge Changming was glaring furiously at the man before him:

"Ling Yudao, do you have any idea what you’re doing?"

"Are you declaring yourself an enemy of us Artifact Refiners?!"

Seeing the Linlang Pavilion Shadow Guards who had already surrounded the place layer upon layer, Ge Changming’s beard trembled with rage as he shouted:

"If you take your people and leave right now, I’ll pretend nothing ever happened."

Artifact Refiners were all Mages who had awakened Fire Element.

And because they spent almost all their energy on Artifact Refining, their own combat strength really wasn’t that great.

Even Ge Changming, the President, was only at Basic Tier Nine.

He was simply no match for Ling Yudao, who was at the Late Stage peak.

And although Artifact Refiners weren’t strong in battle, it didn’t affect their status in people’s minds in the slightest.

Precisely because of this.

Under normal circumstances, no one would dare come looking for trouble with this group.

But Ge Changming never would’ve imagined.

That because of a few words from Regill, he had actually lured this bringer of calamity, Ling Yudao, here.

Thinking of Regill, who’d been lying on the ground half-dead just now, Ge Changming’s anger flared even hotter.

But considering Linlang Pavilion’s current strength, it was still not something his single Artifact Refiner Guild could rival.

Ge Changming had no choice but to swallow his rage for now, intending to send them away first and settle accounts later.

However, faced with Ge Changming’s delaying tactic, Ling Yudao was far more straightforward:

"Didn’t your good disciple say he wanted my daughter to never be able to speak again?"

"Heh heh~"

As Ling Yudao spoke, his face suddenly darkened and he roared:

"Today I’ll show you whether or not my Linlang Pavilion dares to move against your Artifact Refiner Guild."

With that, Ling Yudao didn’t waste another word:

"Smash it for me!"

"Whoever dares to stop you, kill without mercy!"

The Linlang Pavilion Shadow Guards, suffused with killing intent, echoed in unison:

"Yes!"

The people of the Artifact Refiner Guild turned deathly pale at the sight and didn’t dare move a muscle.

Ge Changming clutched his chest in fury and pointed at Ling Yudao:

"You!"

But right after that, Ge Changming heard the crackling and crashing of things being smashed all around him.

Someone shouted in disbelief:

"President, think of something!"

"Are we just going to watch these bandits wreck this place?"

Others were wailing nonstop:

"My Artifact Refining Furnace."

"My Tier Two Magical Artifact I just finished refining!"

"Stop smashing, stop it right now!"

"You people of Linlang Pavilion really are insane, all of you are insane."

"You’re making enemies of the entire world!"

Watching all the freshly forged Spiritual Artifacts hanging on the walls get mercilessly destroyed, Ge Changming’s eyes went bloodshot as he roared in fury:

"Ling Yudao!!!"

Just then, Ling Yudao suddenly said:

"Stop!"

The sounds of smashing around them also came to an abrupt halt.

Looking at the trembling, rage-filled Ge Changming, Ling Yudao’s expression remained calm as he said:

"Honestly, I didn’t want things to come to this either."

"If you’re going to blame someone, blame that precious disciple of yours."

"Of course!"

"If he can manage to come back alive, hahahaha~~"

With that, Ling Yudao laughed loudly and walked out:

"Anyone who dares lay a hand on my daughter, I’ll make them regret ever coming into this world."

"We’re leaving."

Ge Changming watched helplessly as Ling Yudao and the others left, grinding his teeth as he spat:

"Linlang Pavilion!"

"This grudge, I, Ge Changming, will one day make you repay a hundredfold!!"

"Ah!!!!"

In just a short time, what had happened here sprouted wings and spread to every corner of Jialan City.

Countless people were shocked by Linlang Pavilion’s madness.

Of course.

Beyond the shock, even more people could only sigh helplessly for Linlang Pavilion.

It wasn’t hard to imagine.

Linlang Pavilion had already been teetering like a candle in the wind, and after this incident.

The storm of revenge they were about to face from the Artifact Refiner Guild and the Three Great Empires behind it would no doubt be like a howling Gale.

...

...

At this moment, Lin Yi, who was in the Demon Forest, still had no idea what was happening outside.

After ’dealing with’ Regill, Lin Yi took Ling Yuwei and the others and threaded his way through this perilous dense forest.

Orana hefted her Magic Staff, glanced behind her, then said to Lin Yi:

"Are you sure we’re just going to let them follow us like this?"

Lin Yi lounged comfortably on the Golden Behemoth’s shoulder, looked at the group trailing behind them, and said nonchalantly:

"If they want to follow, let them follow."

All things considered, Lin Yi wasn’t some bloodthirsty maniac.

As long as someone didn’t really provoke him, he wouldn’t go out of his way to make things hard for them.

He might even have been willing to lend them a hand if they’d spoken nicely from the start.

Unfortunately, they’d chosen the method Lin Yi hated most.

Just then, the Golden Behemoth suddenly let out a howl.

Lin Yi patted the Behemoth’s head in tacit understanding and said:

"Got it, leave it to me."

At the same time, Lin Yi began preparing one of his few Skills that actually required chanting.

Sure enough, in less than a moment, a Demon about the size of a wolf but with two heads burst out from the side.

Ling Yuwei saw it and instinctively cried out in alarm:

"Tier Seven Demon, Double-headed Hound!"

[Double-headed Hound]

Magic Beast

Life Value: 3000000/3000000

Attributes: Wind, Fire

Level: Lv73

While everyone was still reeling from the sudden appearance of this Demon, Lin Yi had already made his move:

"Eight-headed Energy Wave."

Immediately, Orochi turned into a phantom and appeared out of nowhere. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

The moment the Eight-headed Giant Serpent with its eight skulls manifested, countless people were horrified.

The men and women following behind Lin Yi all went deathly pale from fright.

But Lin Yi didn’t spare them a glance, instead controlling the Orochi phantom:

"Hit it for me!"

The eight heads spat out eight Energy Waves one after another.

When the Double-headed Hound sensed danger and tried to dodge, it discovered that its body couldn’t move at all.

In the blink of an eye, the Double-headed Hound was swallowed by the eight Energy Waves:

"Boom boom boom boom..."

"-265412"

"-265412"

"-265412"

...

After just one round of attacks, this Demon that had just stuck its head out was instantly left with a sliver of Life Value, let out a miserable "awoo~", and collapsed to the ground, stumbling.

Lin Yi, Dragon Scale Sword in hand, leaped straight down from the Golden Behemoth’s shoulder:

"Cyan Dragon·Cyan Dragon Break."

A Cyan Dragon took form out of the void, turning into a streak of azure light:

"Puchi~"

"-864406" Pierced through~

With the 220% damage bonus from Cyan Dragon Break, this pitiful Demon was one-shot killed on the spot!

System: "Congratulations on killing Double-headed Hound, you have gained EXP: 74585."

System: "Congratulations, you have obtained a special item, [Celestial Pearl Fragment ④]."

System: "Congratulations, you have obtained equipment, [Wind and Fire Armor Lv70 Legend]."

...

Listening to the System prompts, Lin Yi froze for a moment:

"Celestial Pearl Fragment?"
