They could clearly see that this figure was Lin Wannian.
How could a mid-level warrior with external strength dare to attack a warrior with internal strength despite being injured?
"court death!"
Xia Yuanlong's face darkened, and he swung his palm, hitting Lin Wannian's chest.
There was a dull thud, Lin Wannian's body shook violently, and blood spurted out from his mouth.
But he did not retreat. Instead, he stepped forward, turned his back to Xia Yuanlong, and opened his arms to protect Qu Lingling.
Everyone was shocked.
Xia Yuanlong was also quite surprised and did not take action again.
"Why are you doing this?"
Qu Lingling was even more shocked.
"Lingling, I...I'm sorry for you."
Lin Wannian looked at her deeply and said with difficulty, "Although I... want you, I also really... like you... love you. I don't want... you to be... hurt in any way, this time.
I harmed you...and couldn't...save you, so I can only die...to atone for my sins from you!"
"Chairman Lin, you don't have to be like this..."
Qu Lingling looked complicated and sighed.
When she saw Lin Wannian trying to kill Chen Hao with Ji Xueming's help, she felt extremely hateful. But now she saw that Lin Wannian was willing to die for her, and she was quite shocked. Thinking of Lin Wannian's kindness in taking care of her before, her heart suddenly melted.
It softened.
Lin Wannian could no longer hold on any longer and fell to his knees with a thud. However, he stubbornly straightened his back and looked up at Qu Lingling: "Lingling... I... I'm going to die, you... you
Can you forgive me?"
"I forgive you, Brother Lin. In my heart, you will always be my elder brother."
Qu Lingling said with tears.
"Thanks……"
Lin Wannian showed a relieved smile, "Lingling, I... I made a... will a long time ago. After my death, my... Wantong Group... will be... handed over to you. I hope you can
Take good care of...my family..."
At this point, his voice suddenly dropped, and then he slowly fell to the ground, dying.
The hall was silent.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh slightly when they looked at Lin Wannian's body.
Originally, Lin Wannian relied on the power of Ji Xue's name to intimidate other warriors, and everyone did not think highly of him. However, they did not expect that Lin Wannian would be willing to sacrifice his life for Qu Lingling, and respect was born in their hearts.
Qu Lingling covered her mouth and cried softly.
"Sister Ling, when things here are settled, let's bury Chairman Lin properly."
Chen Hao also sighed, stepped forward and gently held Qu Lingling's hand.
Although Lin Wannian wanted to harm him, he died to protect Qu Lingling, and all his sins were eliminated.
Qu Lingling nodded silently.
boom!
Xia Yuanlong came to his senses, kicked Lin Wannian's body away, and said sarcastically: "What a poignant love tragedy, touching, really touching!"
He looked at Qu Lingling with a sneer: "Don't be sad, I will reunite you with this guy soon and let you be a pair of fateful mandarin ducks in the underworld."
With that said, he stretched out his hand to grab Qu Lingling again.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a white dot shot toward him, making an extremely powerful sound as it shot through the air.
Xia Yuanlong was startled and quickly retreated to avoid it.
There was a ding sound, and white dots hit the wall of the hall more than ten meters away, embedded deeply in it.
All the warriors looked at it and took a breath of cold air.
I saw that the white dot was a paper ball made from a piece of tissue paper. It was exactly the same as the paper ball that the tall young man used to injure Qu Lingling's men.
But being able to hit a paper ball into a wall made of hard jade is much better than a tall and strong young man.
"who?"
Xia Yuanlong was shocked and angry, looking at the many underworld gangs.
That's where the paper ball comes from.
The expressions of Lu Qinghai, his wife, and the Chang brothers also changed and they turned around to look.
Before they showed up, they had secretly checked the underworld gang thugs to confirm that there were no more hidden warriors. Unexpectedly, they still missed someone.
"I!"
A young man with a body as tall as jade and bright eyebrows strode out proudly.
"Who are you? Why did you attack me?"
Xia Yuanlong said angrily.
"Because I feel unhappy with you."
The jade-like young man sneered, "Although Lin Wannian is not very good, he is willing to sacrifice his life for the love in his heart. I admire this very much. If you dare to insult his body, I will deal with you."
Xia Yuanlong's face suddenly turned ugly, but he did not speak.
Apart from anything else, just with his skill at shooting paper balls into the wall, this young man is definitely not inferior to him.
He really didn't dare to act rashly.
The jade-like young man glanced at him with disdain, turned to the crowd and said, "Brother Chu, since everyone else has shown up, you can come out too."
"good."
A simple voice sounded, and immediately, a handsome young man with extraordinary temperament came out.
Although these two young men were wearing ordinary thugs' clothes and were inconspicuous in the crowd, when they appeared at this moment, they immediately looked like twin stars and stood out.
"Who are you? Are you here for the secret recipe too?"
Lu Qinghai asked.
"good."
The young man who was as tall as jade said, "My surname is Lu, and the cursive character is Gaoyang."
He stretched out his hand and pointed at the young man named Chu: "He is my friend, his name is Chu Xiuyuan."
Lu Qinghai, his wife and the Chang brothers were stunned and looked at each other.
They have never heard of these two names.
Judging from the young age of the two of them, could they be China's new internal energy masters?
"It's really ignorant."
Suddenly, a sneer sounded, "Even if you haven't heard of the Fifth Young Master Lu and the Fifth Young Master Chu, you should at least have heard of the four major families in Yanjing, right?"
Everyone turned to look.
It was Ji Xueming who was speaking, leaning on the door frame with his arms folded, a look of sarcasm on his face.
He had already left, but I don't know when he came back.
"The four major families in Yanjing, Du, Chen, Chu, and Lu, are these two from the Chu family and the Lu family?"
"It must be so. Apart from the four top martial arts families in China, where else can such a young internally powerful warrior be trained?"
"I didn't expect that even the Chu family and the Lu family would take action. If I had known this, there would be no need for me to come to Donglin to rush through this troubled water."
"Sigh, in fact, we should have thought of it a long time ago. With the profits brought by the two popular products of Haoling Herbal Tea and Haoqing Beauty Ointment, how could those top martial arts families and forces not pay attention? Even if we can grab the secret recipe, I'm afraid
If you can’t save it, you might even end up losing your life in vain.”
"That's right. Although I haven't got the secret recipe now, at least my life is safe. People shouldn't be too greedy."
Deng Wanhui, Sun Qiuyun and other powerful foreign warriors did not leave either. They all marveled and smiled bitterly when they heard this.
Most of them are casual cultivators. Even if they have power behind them, they are still far behind the giants like the four major families. Originally, they still had any luck in their hearts, but now they have no chance at all. Instead, they are secretly rejoicing.
