Chapter 73 - Immortal Binding Rope
Chapter 73: Immortal Binding Rope
At this moment, on the other side, the disciples of the Sword Cultivation Academy, as well as a few disciples of other academies, were all tied up on the spot with a rope. The rope suffused with a faint golden light, and did not look ordinary. No matter how much they struggled, it was futile.
The person beside them said mockingly, “This is an immortal binding rope. With your low cultivation levels, you should save your strength for collecting his corpse.”
They were still fine but the person laying on the ground was getting hit with spiritual power one strike after another. It was a shocking sight.
“Even if you are powerful, you can’t take human lives lightly, right?”
The leader seemed to have heard a joke. “In this world, the strong are respected. If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck.”
It was as if he was watching a show. He admired these people’s shocked and angry expressions. The cruelty and ruthlessness in his eyes made it seem as if human lives were not worth mentioning in his eyes.
“I was just offended by two country bumpkins, and you guys bumped into the muzzle of a gun. Why did I poke into the country bumpkins’ nest today? How unlucky. If I didn’t teach you guys a good lesson, you would really think that I had lost my temper.”
If Lin Bai were here, he would realize that this person was none other than He Linsheng from before. It turned out that not long after he had left the Spirit Gathering Pavilion, he had bumped into people from the Sword Cultivator Academy. He was already angry, so his attitude naturally became even more arrogant.
Although Chen Yan from the Sword Cultivator Academy knew that he had to keep a low profile in the capital to avoid provoking people that he shouldn’t provoke, He Linsheng’s words were really too harsh. He couldn’t help but reply a few words, but who would have thought that He Linsheng would lash out.
How could they be a match for him? His other companions were shackled by the Immortal Binding Rope, and he was in an extremely bad situation.
Seeing that He Linsheng really didn’t care about human lives, the others were a little anxious. They gritted their teeth and pleaded, “Young master, it’s our fault for not recognizing Mount Tai. Please be magnanimous and let us off.”
He Linsheng raised his eyebrows. “Now you know to admit defeat. If this had happened earlier, you guys would not have met with such a disaster. I’m not a person who holds grudges.”
He showed a malicious smile. “If you guys bark a few times, I can consider letting you country bumpkins off.”
The few of them hesitated for a moment. They looked at the unconscious Chen Yan. For the sake of his safety, they finally lowered their heads and said with a humiliated expression, “Woof — Woof.”
“You all barked too softly. I didn’t hear you.”
They made up their minds and went all out. They raised their voices and then lowered their heads deeply, not daring to look at the gazes of others. At this moment, they wished they could find a hole in the ground and hide.
The only thing they were thankful for was that there were no people they were familiar with here. Otherwise, they would not have the face to face them.
Looking at their humiliated expressions, He Linsheng revealed a carefree smile. The malice in his eyes increased instead of decreasing.
“I’m not satisfied with your barking. How about this, you can crawl under my crotch and like a doggy crawling through a hole. Everyone can see it.”
“Don’t go too far. We agreed to let us go by barking like dogs. How can you go back on your words?”
He Linsheng revealed a puzzled expression. “Did I say that? I seemed to have just said that I would consider it. Unfortunately, I’m not satisfied with your performance. You can’t even learn how to bark like dogs, and you still want to be human.”
The crowd roared with laughter, making their faces red and ears red. More than that, they were filled with unspeakable anger. He Linsheng had no intention of letting them go. He was just making fun of them.
Chen Yan, who was lyaing on the ground, moved his fingers. He tried to open his eyes and spat on He Linsheng’s face. “Ptui, you want to be a doggy hole? You think you’re worthy to let us crawl into it?”
He Linsheng was caught off guard and was spat all over his face. He wiped the blood foam off his face in exasperation. The gloominess in his eyes seemed to want to swallow Chen Yan whole.
“Very well — since you want to die so badly, then I’ll grant you your wish.”
He was about to take a step forward, but the flying sword that was rushing towards him interrupted his move. He Linsheng took a few steps back and the sword stabbed straight into the wall. Its body was emitting a cold divine light.
“Who is it? !”
He suddenly turned his head around. It was Bai He and the others. Because Lin Bai was walking at the back of the group, he didn’t see them.
However, Lin Bai saw He Linsheng and couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
Seeing Bai He and the others arrive, the people who were restrained by the Immortal Binding Rope couldn’t help but show happy expressions. They stood up and shouted, “Senior brother Bai!”
He Linsheng narrowed his eyes and sized up Bai He. “So you’re the eldest senior brother of these country bumpkins?”
The people beside Bai He said indignantly, “It is him. He’s simply going too far.”
“I was wondering why there was a missing person. It turns out that there’s a fish that slipped through the net and went back to call for reinforcements,” He Linsheng said nonchalantly. Even though there were many people on Bai He’s side, in his eyes, they were just a motley crew.
Bai He had always been arrogant and prideful, but he also knew that there were many capable people in the capital. He should not act impulsively, so he suppressed his temper. Moreover, before they set off, his master had repeatedly warned them not to provoke trouble.
However, when he saw Chen Yan’s miserable state, he could not help but get angry. He held back his anger and said calmly, “I wonder how this junior brother offended you. No matter how angry you are, you should be appeased.”
Everyone hurriedly helped Chen Yan up from the ground. At the same time, a spirit light flashed in Bai He’s hand. The golden ropes broke one after another. The disciples who were bound by the Immortal Binding Rope also returned to the group.
He Linsheng looked at Bai hH’s neat and neat movements. His eyes flashed slightly, but he allowed them to move.
When Bai He was about to leave, he finally opened his mouth and said, “Wait, did I say that I let you go?”
