Next, Qu Wenji began to play the guqin while the western beauty immediately began dancing.
No doubt, the music was pleasing to the ear and the dance was even more beautiful.
The veil on the western beauty's face automatically fell and fluttered away, immediately attracting a frenzy of scrambling.
The western beauty's limbs were slender, her facial features were deep, her nose was high, her long chestnut-colored hair was long, and her eyes were blue. Her beauty was different from Qu Wenji's beauty from the Central Continent. It was exotic. At least to Lin Jin, this western beauty wasn't necessarily prettier than Qu Wenji. It was just that their styles were different.
Of course, as a dancer, this western beauty was definitely skilled. Even in Lin Jin's eyes, he found her to be quite an impressive performer.
However, right at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
A person flew out from the private room next door and landed on the stage at lightning speed. With one hand on each, he lifted the western beauty and Qu Wenji up by their waists before dashing out.
No one could stop him. In an instant, the wooden tables were smashed to pieces and dishes flew everywhere.
There were some experts in Grace Pavilion but without exception, all of them were knocked away by the towering figure. Some unlucky ones spat out blood and fell to the ground, their fates unknown.
"How dare you!" Zuo Wentang cursed before leaping out to give chase.
Lin Jin was frowning as well. The hall below was in a mess but Lin Jin remembered that there wasn't only one person next door.
The next instant, someone came out from the room next door. It was the Grassy Continent native with the aura of a king serpent. Beside him were two guards. That monster from before was the madman who kidnapped the girl.
The three natives smirked as they hurried out of the room. No one was paying attention to them right now.
Lin Jin gave it some thought. Now that things had come to this, he couldn't just stand by and watch. Moreover, he could tell that Zuo Wentang was paying extra attention to Qu Wenji. Otherwise, Zuo Wentang's expression would have changed immediately upon discovering that Qu Wenji had been kidnapped. Lin Jin couldn't just stand by and watch.
Hence, Lin Jin took a step forward and blocked the three natives' way.
"Gentlemen, are you planning to leave just like that?" Lin Jin asked politely, but the other party's reaction was clearly intense.
Two Grassy Continent natives dressed as guards took two steps forward. One of them punched while the other pushed his palms forward. In an instant, the two seemingly ordinary men seemed to have merged into one, unleashing a tremendous force. Lin Jin could even see the silhouette of a Grassy Continent mammoth charging at him.
The moment they met, it was a killing move.
These Grassy Continent natives were truly arrogant.
Lin Jin naturally didn't dare to let his guard down. After all, that terrifying aura had already collided head-on. Lin Jin instantly used Xiao Huo's strength. His left fist and right palm happened to be the exact opposite of his opponent's. Just like that, when the fist and palm collided, the energy of ice and fire rippled out.
In a moment of desperation, this was Lin Jin's fastest reaction. The combined strength of the two Grassy Continent natives was undeniably strong. When their fists and palms collided, it felt as if a giant elephant had rammed into Lin Jin with the force of ten thousand catties.
Lin Jin was immediately sent flying, crashing through a screen behind him.
"Futile effort!" The Grassy Continent native in the middle sneered and quickly left. His two subordinates looked grim as they hurried after him. However, it was obvious that they were having a hard time.
Once outside, the middle-aged Grassy Continent native noticed something amiss and immediately asked with a frown.
"You two, what's wrong?"
"King Yan, that man just now wasn't simple. We can't feel our arms anymore. I'm afraid …" The two subordinates looked pained as they broke out in cold sweat.
Taking a closer look, one of their arms was frozen while the other was charred black. It was obvious that they had been burned.
"Trash!"
The Grassy Continent native who was addressed as King Yan cursed before hastening his pace. His two subordinates gritted their teeth and followed suit. Taking advantage of the chaos, they ran out of the city.
Unbeknownst to them, someone was following them.
It was Lin Jin.
Earlier, Lin Jin had been careless and was sent flying. His opponent was simply too strong. Lin Jin had never encountered such a joint attack before so he was at a disadvantage.
But in all honesty, the other party was the one at a disadvantage.
Lin Jin was only sent flying with minor injuries while the two Grassy Continent natives probably lost their arms. In other words, Lin Jin had the upper hand in this fight.
However, Lin Jin was pissed.
Extremely pissed.
He was just asking a question. He didn't even finish his sentence before the other party attacked him. If it were anyone else, would they still be alive?
They would definitely be beaten until their bones were broken and their tendons snapped.
Hence, Lin Jin was displeased. Even if Zuo Wentang wasn't involved, Lin Jin would still stick his nose into this matter.
Lin Jin had used Camouflage and Cloud Soaring. No matter how fast the other party was and how they had already left the city, it was impossible for them to shake Lin Jin off.
Moreover, Lin Jin could tell that these Grassy Continent natives knew there were experts in Maple City so they didn't dare to linger. They had clearly planned this out. At this speed, the experts in the city wouldn't be able to react in time, let alone stop them. After all, it had only been ten breaths since the incident started.
After leaving the city, the Grassy Continent natives headed west. In fact, Lin Jin could have stopped them long ago.
But Lin Jin didn't.
As mentioned earlier, Lin Jin was pissed. Hence, he wanted to figure out what they were up to before making his move. No matter what they were up to, Lin Jin would destroy them. It was his fault for being pissed off.
While the three of them were chatting, Lin Jin used a skill to get closer. He walked quickly above their heads, obviously using the Cloud Staircase.
With the cover of the night and Camouflage, the three people below didn't notice him at all.
"Can you two still hold on?" King Yan asked with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.
"King Yan, we can." The two injured guards of the Grassy Continent did not dare to say no. They were very clear about King Cheng's character. If he felt that they were a burden, he might even abandon them. Therefore, even if they could not persist, they had to grit their teeth and persevere.
"Hmph, there aren't many experts in the Jade Dragon Kingdom and even more so in Maple City. I heard that Ye Yuzhou is the only one here and the others are nothing. That kid who blocked our way just now definitely isn't Ye Yuzhou. And you guys were injured by a nobody. I'm afraid you'll be punished when you return. But I'm very happy today. Not only did I manage to bring Tilly back, I also brought a Central Continent beauty with me. Haha, so don't worry, I'll only reward you when we return."
King Cheng burst out laughing at the moment. Obviously, he was in a good mood.
The two guards also heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, "Congratulations to Prince Cheng for finding a beauty. In this way, there will be more beauties in Prince Cheng's harem."
King Cheng was delighted to hear this. "Haha, that's right.
It's time to build a few more courtyards for our harem. Also, that Tilly needs to be taught a lesson. Previously, when I wanted to bring her in, she dared to run away. She even chose to come to this brothel of the Central Continent instead of enjoying life with me. If I don't teach her a lesson this time, I won't be able to quell the hatred in my heart. " King Cheng's face was filled with murderous intent when he mentioned something he was unhappy about. At this, the two guards dared not say another word. If they said something wrong and angered King Cheng again, it would be troublesome.
