"Hayashikawa, what's wrong with your eyes? Are you feeling unwell? " Bu Lian Shi asked in a low voice. She saw the veins around Hayashikawa's eyes bulging, and his face was pale.
"I … I'm fine!" Hayashikawa said softly to Bu Lian Shi. His mind was spinning rapidly.
Hayashikawa was very clear about his current situation. Even if he knew about this, he could not say it out loud. Once he did, he had no doubt that the Lin Family would kill him immediately, and he would not even have the ability to resist. This was the price of being weak.
A great man once said, if you are weak, you will be beaten! Now, if you are weak, you will be beaten.
Hayashikawa was not a saint. Even if he sympathized with all the orphans here, he would not put himself in danger. Moreover, if he told everyone about this, they would not be able to resist.
Hayashikawa believed that even if they knew that their Spiritual Roots would be devoured, there would still be a lot of people who would choose to harvest the Scarlet Flame Red Lotuses. This was because it was their only chance to survive, even if it was not a glorious life, even if the price was their talent.
"But since the Lin Family is so heartless, then don't blame me for not being righteous! Other people's Spiritual Qi cannot leave their body in the Qi Refining Realm, but my Immortal Technique Chakra can. Just the Chakra alone can cover the surface of my hands. Then, there is only one goal left for this test, and that is to harvest the Scarlet Flame Red Lotuses! As long as I harvest enough, the number of children whose Spiritual Roots are devoured will decrease. This is also my way of saving the situation! "Hayashikawa thought to himself.
"Bu Lian Shi, Hayashikawa, when we enter the hunting ground later, you must follow behind me. I will protect you."
"If you encounter any Spiritual Beasts, you just need to protect yourselves. Leave the rest to me. I will charge in front of you, and I will not let the Spiritual Beasts hurt you."
"If I can't handle it, just run. Don't worry about me, understand? I'm the strongest here, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to survive! "
"Even if my life is in danger, you don't have to care about me. Because if even I can't do anything, the two of you can only be buried with me. It's better to just leave. Maybe you can survive. Even if you can't pass the test, there's still hope to survive!"
On the way to Hunting Ground No. 44, Qin Lang kept instructing the two of them on what to do after they entered the examination hall. His face was solemn, and he no longer had the playful expression from before. He looked like a big brother, even though he was younger than Hayashikawa.
Bu Lian Shi's face turned pale with fright. Under Qin Lang's threats and promises, he could only nod his head, not daring to say anything.
Hayashikawa, on the other hand, was silently watching Qin Lang's serious and sincere expression. He felt that this child had a light that even he envied. Even though this kind of light seemed foolish to Hayashikawa, he had to admit that this kind of dazzling light still inadvertently brightened his heart.
"Forget it, let him be the big brother for a while. Anyway, I have nothing to lose. When we enter the forest, I'll compete with him for the leadership of the team!" Hayashikawa chuckled in his heart.
Even he didn't know that unknowingly, he already regarded the two people beside him as his most important partners. At least in this world, no one is more important than Bu Lian Shi and Qin Lang.
Is this the so-called fetters?
As an orphan in his previous life, Hayashikawa once envied Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura's cherished and undying feelings for each other. However, when he gradually got it himself, he felt a sense of fear.
Some things, once you have it, are difficult to let go. And if you can't let go, it'll be the flaw in your life, and it'll be irreversible.
Before noon, everyone arrived at the outside of Hunting Ground No. 44. It was a dense forest with mountains, rivers, and ponds. From afar, one could see that above the forest, there was a bowl-like membrane covering the sky. That was the protective formation set up by the Lin family. Without the token of the Lin family, no one could enter it.
"It's said that the entire mountain range here belongs to the Lin Family. It covers thousands of miles!"
"The Spiritual Qi in this mountain range is abundant. That's why it's occupied by the Lin Family. No one else has a chance to cultivate here!"
"That's right. The Spiritual Qi here is several times higher than the outside world. Cultivating here is really twice the result with half the effort!"
…
The surrounding people were discussing. Everyone looked at the huge mountain range and sighed at the strength of the Lin Family. This was a symbol of strength, and also a display of strength.
"Let's go. Let's go to another place to have a look. There are too many people here, and this assessment doesn't forbid killing. Let's find a place with fewer people to enter!" Qin Lang looked around and pulled Hayashikawa and Bu Lian Shi to the side.
Not only Hayashikawa's group, but the others also spread out and walked around the protective formation outside the Hunting Ground, preparing to find a place with fewer people to enter.
As they moved forward, Hayashikawa looked curiously at the formation that covered Hunting Ground No. 44. Under the Byakugan, he could clearly see the complicated Spiritual Qi circulation routes in the formation. It was similar to the enchantment in Naruto.
After walking for about an hour, Qin Lang saw that there was no one around, so he said to Hayashikawa and Bu Lian Shi, "This place is not bad. Why don't we wait here to enter?"
Bu Lian Shi also looked around and nodded after making sure there was no one around.
However, Hayashikawa did not respond. He had his back to the two of them, as if he was looking into the distance. In fact, he was forming a seal to activate the Byakugan.
"Byakugan!"
As the meridians around his eyes bulged, everything within a one-kilometer radius became clearly visible. There were no blind spots.
One, two, three … Hayashikawa quietly counted in his heart. Those invisible people were instantly exposed under Hayashikawa's Byakugan. After ten breaths, Hayashikawa withdrew the Byakugan and found that there were a total of twelve people hiding in four groups. It was not as peaceful and safe as it seemed on the surface.
"Hmph, there are a few people who have been following us since we left. Did they really think I wouldn't notice? If it wasn't for the fact that I don't want to make a move now, I would really kill these people first! " Hayashikawa's eyes flashed with a cold light. He did not need to guess to know the purpose of these people following them. It was nothing more than seeing that their group was weak, so they were preparing to kill and rob them.
"I don't think this place is very good … uh … well, the feng shui is not good. Let's go somewhere else!" Hayashikawa casually made up an excuse and dragged Bu Lian Shi and Qin Lang away.
Qin Lang was speechless. What did he mean by the feng shui was not good? However, he did not refute Hayashikawa's decision. The three of them continued on their way, heading deeper into the forest.
