Murong Zhen was instantly horrified. She was no match for Lin Yi in a one-on-one battle. There was no doubt about that. However, her attempt to kill Shanghai Laner had been caught red-handed by Lin Yi!
The situation took a sudden turn for the worse. The shadow of death that had been hanging over Shanghai Laner's head had quietly shifted to her own head.
Cold sweat dripped from Murong Zhen's forehead. Time seemed to have frozen at that moment. It was so slow that it made one's hair stand on end. It made one anxious and even terrified.
Finally, while Murong Zhen was still in a state of shock, Lin Yi slowly spoke again, "If you don't have any last words, I'll send you on your way."
There was no deep hatred between him and Murong Zhen. Hence, during the last Newcomer Challenge, he did not intend to kill her. However, today, after witnessing what Murong Zhen had done to Shanghai Laner, his hidden killing intent had been triggered.
Murong Zhen and Shangguan Laner had a grudge against each other. Shanghai Laner did not remember, so Lin Yi naturally did not know either. However, based on the woman's vicious act of biting the hand that fed her, she deserved to die.
Scum like her did not deserve to live in this world.
"Wait … Wait!" Murong Zhen cried out in panic when she saw that Lin Yi was about to make his move.
She was no longer Lin Yi's opponent during the Newcomer Challenge. Now, Lin Yi seemed to have improved a lot. Furthermore, she was currently being grabbed by him. If they were to fight, she would definitely lose.
Amidst her fear, Murong Zhen's gaze swept between Lin Yi and Shanghai Laner. Before Lin Yi could make his move, she asked, "You … What's your relationship with her?"
Lady Shangguan hated Lin Yi, and this was a well-known fact in the Welcome Pavilion. Naturally, it was not difficult for Murong Zhen to know, so she thought that Lin Yi would be her natural ally. That was why she tried every possible way to win Lin Yi over.
However, she had never expected that Lin Yi would actually want to kill her for the sake of that bitch, Shangguan Laner!
"These are your last words? I'm sorry. I am not obliged to answer you. So be it. " After Lin Yi finished speaking, a tremendous amount of Vital Qi gathered on his right palm. Murong Zhen's arm was grabbed by Lin Yi's left hand. Even if he used martial arts techniques like the Phantom Finger, he would not be able to escape from Lin Yi's next palm strike.
Although Murong Zhen could sense that Lin Yi's entire body was filled with openings, her instincts told her that she would be the one who would die in the end if she really thought that they were openings and attacked recklessly.
What to do? What to do? He would really die if he continued like this!
She could only watch as Lin Yi's murderous intent became more and more intense. Murong Zhen was so anxious that she was sweating profusely. No matter how cunning she was, when it came to a life-threatening situation like this, her mind would turn blank.
They were too close to each other. Even if she were to break one of her arms and abandon her right arm that was grabbed by Lin Yi, she would not be able to escape Lin Yi's next palm strike. She would still die.
She was helpless and could only wait for her death. Faced with Lin Yi's merciless palm strike, Murong Zhen felt defeated. She was unwilling to let her best years come to an end just like that. She was extremely unwilling!
However, the palm strike suddenly stopped midway. It was not because Lin Yi was soft-hearted, but because Shangguan Laner had spoken.
"Little Junior Brother. Let her go. " Shangguan Laner covered the wound on her shoulder with one hand and comforted the Little Curly Bear, which was dizzy from Murong Zhen's palm strike. She gasped in pain as she spoke.
It was a sentence. Lin Yi and Murong Zhen were shocked at the same time. Both of them were a little stunned.
"She was determined to kill you just now. You don't think she was joking, do you?" Lin Yi frowned as he spoke.
At any time, showing mercy to the enemy was being cruel to oneself. There were countless examples of being soft-hearted that led to a painful lesson.
Even if Shangguan Lan 'er was a young miss, even if she didn't have much experience in the jianghu, Lin Yi didn't believe that she didn't know such a simple truth. Even if she didn't know, her grandfather Shangguan Tianhua would definitely let her know.
"I know. If Little Junior Brother didn't come back in time, I'd be dead by now." Shangguan Laner nodded in all seriousness.
"Then you still want to let her go? If you don't kill her this time, she'll still find a chance to kill you next time. "Lin Yi rolled his eyes speechlessly.
The human heart was sinister. Even if he let her go this time, a sinister woman like Murong Zhen would only become worse. If he thought that she would turn over a new leaf, he could only say that this Little Senior Sister of his was too naive.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Laner was still stubborn as she said, "It's alright, but I still don't want her to die because of me. So, Little Junior Brother, let me be stubborn for once. Please let her go this time."
After listening to what she said, not only was Lin Yi stunned, but even Murong Zhen herself was in disbelief.
To her knowledge, this kind of thing was simply ridiculous and childish to the point that it was difficult to understand. If it was not because of their current situation, she would have mocked her already.
Looking at Shangguan Laner's serious expression at the moment, it was not that she did not understand the principle of Jianghu being sinister. However, even so, she still wanted to continue doing such a naive and ridiculous thing. Even if she had to bear the huge risk of being devoured by others in the future, she did not care.
If this was naivety, then Shangguan Laner, the young lady who had not experienced the affairs of the world, seemed to have the awareness to continue being naive.
Lin Yi looked deeply at Shangguan Laner, causing Murong Zhen to wait anxiously for a long time. Then, he said, "Since she's your enemy, as long as you have this awareness, her life and death will be decided by you."
"Yes, yes. Thank you, Little Junior Brother." Shangguan Laner nodded heavily.
"Alright." Lin Yi did not have any more objections and nodded seriously.
Murong Zhen was instantly overjoyed. To be able to escape from death this time was something that she did not even dare to dream about. Initially, she thought that even if Shangguan Laner, the young lady, was naive and childish, she might not be able to escape because Lin Yi would definitely not let her go so easily.
What she didn't expect was that Lin Yi would be so stupid as to agree to it.
Murong Zhen secretly sneered. 'This shameless couple is so naive and childish. I'll return the humiliation I've suffered today a thousand times in the future. Before you die, I'll let you experience the true meaning of Jianghu's sinister side!'
However, just as Murong Zhen was secretly feeling proud of herself, Lin Yi let go of her right arm that was being grabbed. At the same time, his figure flashed and his palm landed on her back!
