Imperial Treasure-Chapter 864 - 528: Backlash? Agreement? The True Hellhound
————————
Florence and Wu Jue never anticipated Lin had such a move, so it is said that the most terrifying people in this world are those with deceitful minds, whose schemes come one after another.
Because such people can often fight back even when they’re at a dead end.
Of course, this kind of counterattack is not aimed at Florence and Wu Jue themselves, but at what they care about—the Yellow Springs Naihe!
Just like Florence’s threat to Wu Jue.
Lin’s threat is all-encompassing.
With a mere thought, the veins of Hellfire Island would collapse, then...
Wu Jue’s gaze turned deep and cold.
Natasha, along with the Hellhound and others, locked their eyes on Lin.
They were still very close to Hellfire Island, and if the veins of Hellfire Island were to be destroyed...
They looked down at the water beneath their feet.
Have the veins extended to this area?
"The core of Hellfire is a burial ground, and knowing that Calista can restart it, alongside being so familiar with the matters between me and Yale, as well as the Yellow Springs Naihe, I suppose you were involved back then too," Florence said.
Ah~ such speculation is indeed...
"Accurate," Lin wiped his mouth with his fingers, smearing the blood struck by Wu Jue.
"I was indeed involved."
"Before the war began, I was a friend of Yale’s. You could say I was the source of his confidence... During the war, I was a general under your command, fighting alongside you, and after the war, I helped bring the curse upon him, and also ensured that Calista would remain here forever as a companion."
"Now, how will you define me, Florence?"
Some people are called cunning opportunists because they always play both sides, making it impossible to discern their good or evil intentions.
But now, the words he spoke can only send chills down one’s spine.
It’s unimaginable that such a magnificent and betrayal-filled empire-level war back then was being played around by a completely unrelated outsider.
Nusser and Xius found it hard to control their cold hatred, while the expression on the face of the victim, Florence, appeared excessively calm.
"So, since your true objective isn’t Yellow Springs Naihe, what is it?"
The true objective?
Lin placed his hands behind his back, smiling lightly, "This is indeed difficult for me to answer because even I don’t know why... Maybe you could ask your current partners."
"For people like us... many wars are simply for fun."
"Or as a form of sharpening."
"You know, if a strong person doesn’t constantly hone his weapon, when a war beyond control arrives in the future, his situation will be very precarious."
"Haven’t you already made such a mistake, Florence?"
This is the most capricious, cruel, and ruthless post-war reflection in the world.
How many people can truly empathize?
Wu Jue surely doesn’t agree; maybe her motives are even more appalling, and as for Natasha and the Hellhound... they did not deny it.
Just like their initial intervention in this matter, it was merely driven by a craving for battle and a thirst for adventure.
Florence looked at Lin, with eyes darkened, filled with indistinct hatred and anguish; only depth remained visible.
"I hope we don’t have the chance to meet a second time in the future."
"Meeting again wouldn’t be a problem," Lin smiled, "Can you pose a threat to me?"
As soon as he finished this sentence.
Boom!
Natasha, who was already behind him at some unknown time, and the Hellhound struck fiercely!
Two A-grade King’s Peak! Unleashing their strongest power directly!
A surprise attack? Two A-grade King’s Peaks?
Lin merely sneered.
Boom!
The surface of the water trembled, substances shifted!
A wall emerged, blocking the two Kings!
Easily blocked!
In the end, the only one who could injure Lin was Wu Jue; he only cared about this person. But since the strength wasn’t comparable, there was only one option left.
Swish!
Lin immediately dashed towards the ship.
Wu Jue was a bit slow to react, or perhaps she knew that he would definitely find a way to threaten her from that ship.
For instance, taking hostages...
Yi Chilian, Ye Zixu? Or people like Cao Ling?
Wu Jue coldly watched Lin land on the ship...
And captured Yi.
Ye Zixu and Yi Chilian, among others: "...."
So even a non-entity like Lin could see in an instant who is truly most important to Sui Yi?
Suddenly, there was an overwhelming sense of the person I love not loving me!
Wu Jue frowned.
Lin’s fingers grasped Yi’s neck, subtly digging into the skin, leaving blood marks.
In that second, Wu Jue’s expression changed slightly.
Due to that slight palpitations from within the body,
