As the footsteps approached, the entire floor of the tomb began to tremble.
Everyone looked around, their faces filled with panic.
"What's going on with these footsteps?" Xie Ding's face was filled with bewilderment.
"Based on the sound of these footsteps, there should be a large number of zombies approaching us!" Chen Bing said coldly.
Just as she finished her sentence, countless zombies swarmed into the tomb from the passageway.
After these zombies entered the tomb, they did not attack the group immediately. Instead, they stood there quietly, as if they were soldiers waiting for orders.
Seeing this group of zombies, everyone's faces turned ashen. Their eyes were filled with fear and despair.
In an instant, the number of zombies increased. Very quickly, the number of zombies reached four digits.
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, the zombies in front of them retreated to the sides, creating a wide passageway.
A black-robed swordsman with a face full of acne walked out from the passageway and stood in front of the crowd.
This person was none other than He Shang, who had joined the group with Lin Yun but had disappeared halfway.
Although He Shang was still the same young man with acne, his aura was completely different from before!
His eyes were filled with murderous intent, like a sharp blade that revealed its brilliance.
His aura was extremely strong. It was obvious that he was no longer a Grade 5 Martial Warrior, but a Grade 8 Martial Warrior!
Behind him, there was a golden bell that floated in the air.
This bell was engraved with mysterious runes and emitted a yellow glow. This was obviously the form of his Martial Soul.
Seeing He Shang's current state, everyone fell into deep shock. They had never expected that He Shang had been hiding his cultivation level and Martial Soul!
Compared to the crowd's shock, Lin Yun was not surprised at all. In fact, it could be said that he was extremely calm.
This was because He Shang's reversal was completely within Lin Yun's expectations.
From the beginning, when He Shang did not challenge Lin Yun and instead chose to challenge a Grade 5 Martial Warrior, Lin Yun had already suspected that there was something wrong with him.
Even the name "He Shang" could be a fake name.
The truth was just as Lin Yun had expected. He Shang was indeed the person that Bragging Simon had sent to assassinate him.
"The black corpse that ambushed Lin Na was deliberately left behind by you, wasn't it?" Lin Yun asked He Shang calmly, as if he was asking about a trivial matter.
He Shang simply nodded and admitted, "That's right. I purposely held back and didn't kill it because I wanted to test your strength."
Lin Yun coldly looked at He Shang and continued, "You've noticed me long ago, but you never attacked me. Instead, he used medicinal pills to conceal his cultivation and joined this team with me. He hid in the team and looked for an opportunity to attack. "
"Your cultivation level is clearly much higher than mine. Why didn't you fight me fair and square from the beginning? Instead, you wanted to test my strength first?"
Lin Yun knew very well in his heart that the person who had secretly followed him when he first arrived at the Savage Land was He Shang who stood before him.
This was because the aura on He Shang's body was exactly the same as the aura that Lin Yun had sensed previously.
He Shang coldly said to Lin Yun, "When I received the mission, my employer warned me that not only did you awaken a Heaven Grade Martial Soul, you also had a Divine Weapon as your trump card. Even if you are only a Level 3 Martial Warrior, I cannot underestimate you! "
"When you first entered the Savage Land, I had already noticed you. The reason why I didn't attack you was because I wanted to observe your strength. Secondly, I was afraid of the Divine Weapon in your hands. "
Hearing He Shang's words, everyone turned their heads and looked at Lin Yun in shock. They were secretly speechless. What kind of person was Lin Yun? He even had a Divine Weapon.
He Shang continued, "Apart from that, my employer also told me that he didn't want the news of your assassination to reach the ears of the Marquis of Yuzhou. So I didn't dare to attack you openly. I could only create the illusion that you died in an accident during your training. "
"There are a large number of zombies in this ancient tomb. It is the best place to create the illusion of an accident. Most importantly, my Martial Soul, the Corpse Controlling Bell, can control corpses. This ability can only be used to its fullest in this place! "
Lin Yun was still not surprised, "As I expected, the zombies that escaped were all controlled by you."
He Shang nodded and continued, "Just as you thought, I was indeed the one who controlled them. I originally planned to let them force you into a corner, and then I would personally deal with you. "
"But I never expected you to be so strong. You didn't even use your Martial Soul, but you were able to kill them. "
"I was worried that all the zombies would die in battle and still not be able to force you into a corner. So I moved them away and let you come to this main tomb first. You can fight with them until both sides are injured, and then I can reap the benefits."
"If I kill you in this ancient tomb, as long as no one leaks the news, the outside world will never know that you were assassinated!"
At this point, He Shang's gaze, which was filled with a sharp killing intent, swept over everyone present without missing a single person.
Everyone present felt a chill run down their spines, and they couldn't help but step back subconsciously.
Although He Shang did not say it out loud, the killing intent in his words was obvious.
Fan Jian lay on the ground in agony and pleaded with He Shang, "He Shang, don't worry, I will not say a word about what happened today! Please let me go, I will repay you in the future. "
He Shang laughed coldly, "First, I am not He Shang, my real name is Su Xing."
"Second, I don't need you to repay me. Because only a dead man can keep a secret forever! "
After the young man named Su Xing finished speaking, everyone tensed up and raised their guard. They all took out their weapons and prepared to fight to the death.
Even an idiot could tell that Su Xing's words meant that he wanted to silence them!
However, Fan Jian still wanted to negotiate with Su Xing, "I want this kid dead just like you. Why don't you let me help you, and we can work together to kill this kid?"
"As for the things on him, they all belong to you. I don't want anything, just let me live! "
Hearing Fan Jian's words, Chen Bingbing sneered mockingly, "Don't be silly, even if you really help him, do you think he will keep his promise and let you go?"
With that, Chen Bingbing drew her bow, condensed her Yuan Qi into an arrow, and aimed it at Su Xing.
She was very clear that under these circumstances, Su Xing would definitely not let any of them go.
If they wanted to live, the only way was to work together and kill Su Xing.
