Chapter 2723: Chapter 2724: Overwhelming Power Trumps Tenfold Skill

Lin Yi’s face was grim; he said nothing more and switched off the microphone.

“Things are not easy now,” Gu Yiran said quietly.

“We can only treat a dead horse as if it were alive.”

Lin Yi stood up and grabbed the yellow-haired man, who was beaten to near unconsciousness. “Take me to meet Guo Xiangyang.”

“Okay, okay, I’ll take you there.”

The yellow-haired youth was terrified by Lin Yi. He couldn’t even muster the courage to move; a mere glance from Lin Yi could scare him to the point of wetting himself.

“Let’s go!”

Lin Yi gave the word, and the two of them immediately stood up, taking the yellow-haired youth along as they headed up the mountain.

But before leaving, Lin Yi didn’t forget to lock all doors and windows, ensuring that no one could follow and disrupt their plans.

Under the guidance of the yellow-haired youth, the trio quickly reached the mountain top and arrived at the entrance of the Grandmaster Hall.

At this time, many people were transporting goods here, and the arrival of Lin Yi and Gu Yiran sparked significant alertness among them, prompting them to gather together instinctively.

“Where is Guo Xiangyang?”

There was no immediate answer to Lin Yi’s query.

But soon, sounds emerged from inside the hall, followed by several people stepping out.

Su Ying and Chen Hao were both tied up, and standing beside them was a middle-aged man, wearing a Daoist robe, staring coldly at Lin Yi and Gu Yiran.

It was obvious that this man was Guo Xiangyang.

He had a lean physique with prominent cheekbones, wearing a scholarly pair of glasses.

Yet his overall demeanor was eerie, as if he radiated a certain aloofness.

“It was you who spoke with me earlier, right?”

“Let them go,” Lin Yi said with a stern expression.

“Let them go?” Guo Xiangyang sneered and said:

“Young man, you managed to find your way here, quite impressive indeed, but your manner of speaking earlier, I didn’t quite like it.”

Even knowing that there were police surrounding them outside, Guo Xiangyang’s ability and wit were evidently exceeding ordinary criminals, allowing him to speak in such a manner.

“Even if you’re unhappy, it doesn’t help; operating under the guise of a Mao Mountain Daoist and selling illicit wares here means your end is already destined,” Lin Yi said:

“As for you, don’t entertain any illusions.”

Facing Guo Xiangyang, Lin Yi’s attitude was relatively cautious.

Guo Xiangyang managed to capture Su Ying and Chen Hao not due to their lack of ability, but rather because Guo Xiangyang was exceptionally skilled.

Confronting such a person, if pushed to desperation, he could resort to any means.

“Hehe…” Guo Xiangyang chuckled coldly, saying:

“You aren’t afraid to tell you, I’ve faced such situations a decade ago, and the previous encounter was even more severe. Look at me now, I’m still living well.”

“So, are you trying to intimidate me?”

“Interpret it however you like, but with these two in my hands, I, Guo Xiangyang, can still leave.” Guo Xiangyang spoke with a calm tone, his words filled with intense confidence:

“And not just the two of them, you two aren’t getting away either.”

Right then, the yellow-haired youth seized the opportunity, running towards Guo Xiangyang and positioning himself behind him.

“Boss, you must not spare them. My brother has been crippled; you must avenge my brother!”

“You handled this flawlessly, instantly identifying these suspicious individuals. Once we are out, you’ll be the regional overseer.”

The yellow-haired youth was overjoyed, “Thank you, boss.”

Guo Xiangyang nodded and shifted his gaze to the others.

“Capture these two people and take them with us later!”

“Yes!”

The twenty-something individuals did not hesitate, forming a circle and surrounding Lin Yi and Gu Yiran.

By this time, they knew their situations had become extremely perilous.

Currently, these people were their Protective Talisman!

The more hostages they had, the higher their chances of survival!

They couldn’t afford to give them any chance!

“Keep an eye on Guo Xiangyang. If he makes any dangerous moves, shoot to kill,” Lin Yi whispered.

Gu Yiran nodded cautiously, with droplets of sweat subtly seeping from her smooth forehead.

She was confident she could shoot Guo Xiangyang dead.

But she was fearful that Guo Xiangyang’s speed might surpass hers!

Any deviation in action could have dire consequences.

“Go!”

At Guo Xiangyang’s command, twenty-plus people charged madly at Lin Yi!

Lin Yi’s expression was cold, taking the initiative to strike!

Facing the rushing assailants, his response was a punch!

Crack!

The sound of breaking bones echoed!

The first person to charge forward had his entire face collapse inward, utterly tragic!

Seeing their companion’s fate, a chill swept up the spines of those nearby.

This police officer was far more ruthless than they had imagined!

But at this point, there was no retreat; they had to take down these two!

Their plan might have worked on someone else.

Unfortunately, they encountered Lin Yi!

Across the whole of China, there might be fewer than twenty individuals more formidable than Lin Yi!

Even with two hundred people, the outcome wouldn’t differ.

Pure force triumphs over any strategy; a single punch dismantles all techniques.

Before long, in total, twenty-three people were knocked to the ground by Lin Yi in less than five minutes.

The worst off was the yellow-haired youth.

He thought that by joining these people, he would avenge earlier grievances, only to end up beaten again!

And this time, being the most brutally beaten, he was already foaming at the mouth, unconscious.

Seeing the people lying on the ground, Su Ying and Chen Hao were stunned.

They knew Lin Yi was skilled, but they never expected him to remain so composed, even when surrounded by so many attackers!

These individuals didn’t even touch the hem of his clothes before they collapsed, incapable of standing.

And now, standing nearby, Guo Xiangyang’s face grew darker, feeling a trace of unease at Lin Yi’s prowess.

Lin Yi’s formidable capability prompted Guo Xiangyang to adjust his strategy, moving to stand behind the duo to prevent any unforeseen events.

“Let’s make a deal,” Lin Yi suggested.

“What kind of deal?”

“I’ll go and be a hostage, and you let the two of them go.”

“Don’t try any tricks with me; I’m taking them now. If anyone dares to stop me, I’ll kill them both directly!”

Despite the situation, Guo Xiangyang’s expression remained calm, displaying no sign of panic.

Lin Yi’s brow furrowed, feeling troubled by Guo Xiangyang and realizing his plan had failed.

Even committing illegal acts, he was truly a capable individual.

Few possessed such psychological resilience.

After a few seconds of pondering, Lin Yi said:

“Let’s do it this way then; I’ll go over and be a hostage too, giving you an additional bargaining chip.”
