Chapter 3047: Chapter 3067: Just an Avatar, Surprised or Not?
Zhao Yang and Chen Song were startled, all of a sudden turned around, and then their complexions turned ghastly pale in an instant.
Lin Chen!
Hadn’t they just sent him into the Secret Realm?
How could he still be here?
If he was here, who had they just sent in?
Because the two of them were certain that the small Secret Realm was isolated from this space, no matter what the two of them discussed, Lin Chen couldn’t hear it, so they felt safe to reveal their true thoughts, but who would have known they would be caught in the act?
Lin Chen said with a smile, "I didn’t see that coming. You two gave in so quickly just now, I thought you feared death more than anything, yet unexpectedly you turned around and seemed indifferent to life and death."
Zhao Yang and Chen Song’s faces were deathly pale, speechless in defense.
How could they argue when their true thoughts had been heard?
With their True Souls in Lin Chen’s hands, they couldn’t even think about resisting. If Lin Chen merely had the thought, the two of them would die instantly.
They were doomed!
Death awaited them either way, so Chen Song let go and asked coldly, "If you’re here, then who did we just send in with us?"
"It was still me."
Lin Chen smiled faintly, "But he was just an avatar of mine. How about that, surprised, aren’t you?"
An avatar?
Unable to accept this, Zhao Yang asked, "Did you know beforehand that we were going to do this?"
Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Pretty much."
Zhao Yang pressed on, "Why? We didn’t resist at all, so why did you still believe we weren’t sincerely submitting?"
Lin Chen raised his hand, curled his thumb, and explained, "First, when I asked you to surrender your True Souls, you did so without hesitation, without even the thought of negotiating with me."
"If you truly resented dying like that, before handing over your True Souls, you would have at least tried to bargain for yourselves, suggest a deal, like swearing a contract that as long as you obey my orders, I could not kill you, or something else...but you did not."
Lin Chen then curled his index finger, "Second, when I asked you about the procedure, you said you’d take me inside first, then report. I believe the standard operation might indeed be that way, but why must I enter first?"
"Why couldn’t you just go and report, wait for her to come, and then I could follow her in? Even if I didn’t, with a Quasi-Saint at my side, couldn’t I handle her?"
Again, Lin Chen curled his middle finger, "Third, you kept emphasizing how private that space was, how messages couldn’t be sent out, how secure it was. Once inside, even Lv Shuyi wouldn’t be able to escape, weren’t you just trying to get me to use that space as a battlefield against her?"
"I control your lives, I have a Quasi-Saint by my side, and we are so far from Si Xian City. I can deal with her any way I want. Is there a need for you to stress this so much?"
"You seem to be thinking only of my interests, but in the end, you just wanted to trick me into going..."
Zhao Yang and Chen Song’s faces turned ghostly, their eyesight filled with despair.
Had they unknowingly exposed so many flaws?
Lin Chen lowered his hand, his smile gradually turning cold, "After you’ve treated me this way, perhaps I should visit both of your homes, let those you care about die in front of you, let you experience the absolute despair of the human world."
"No, please!"
Zhao Yang fell to his knees, "I was wrong! Take it out on me, but don’t hurt my family. They were never involved, they don’t even know, they are innocent..."
Lin Chen gave a cold laugh and remained silent.
Chen Song also kneel with a thud, "We will do as you said, lure Lv Shuyi here. After the deed is done, you can take our lives, just please spare our families!"
Lin Chen spoke coldly, "I’ll give you one last chance. If you do your jobs well, I might just cripple your cultivation and spare your lives. However, if you fail to bring Lv Shuyi here, I’ll find another way to deal with her, and you and your families can then reunite in the Nine Netherworld."
Zhao Yang and Chen Song had already been resigned to death, feeling certain of their fate, but upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, a glimmer of hope suddenly shone in their pupils again!
Could they still live?
Who would choose death of they could live?
Even if they were crippled and forced to live as ordinary people for the rest of their lives, it was still better than dying now.
The two were instantly reinvigorated, asserting with absolute certainty that they would accomplish the task.
"Yes, we will go now!"
"We will exaggerate and provoke her, she will definitely come to the palace right away!"
Lin Chen nodded, "Can do. But if you try any tricks, you bear the consequences. Think of the evil deeds you’ve done, once exposed, who will protect you!"
The two submitted completely this time and, once Lin Chen indicated they could leave, they did so without a word.
Lin Chen did not follow them. He let them fall into a ’certain death’ state of mind, completely despairing before giving them a sliver of hope for life.
After tormenting them like this, even the most loyal dog would likely turn and bare its teeth at its master!
He waited calmly.
