Necromancer: I Am A Disaster-Chapter 530: A Small Warning

Coincidences always came uninvited.

Just like today. Lin Moyu never expected things to line up so perfectly.

He hadn’t only run into Xia Xue’s group of three, but also Mu Xianxian, Jialan Yeyu, and the Yeyu Knights.

Then came Mo Yun. And finally, Shu Han, together with Dongfang Yao.

In the eyes of Xia Xue and the other two, the fire of intrigue had already spread like a storm.

But Lin Moyu remained calm. He had nothing to hide.

Mo Yun paused by the window and said softly, “Lin Moyu, come find me when you have time.”

She tossed him a Point Teleportation Stone, then gracefully rode off on her Unicorn.

Lin Moyu watched her go, thoughtful. For someone like Mo Yun to take the initiative… she clearly had something important to say.

Then Shu Han approached, her stride elegant, her arm slipping confidently around his. Her voice was unusually sweet: “Junior Lin, there you are. I’ve been looking all over for you.”

Her behavior was so out of character that Lin Moyu almost suspected she’d been possessed by a Succubus.

Shu Han shot him a desperate wink.

That was why Lin Moyu didn’t shake her off.

He asked quietly, “Senior Shu, is something wrong?”

Shu Han leaned in and whispered, her breath warm against his ear, “Play along. I’m trying to dodge this really annoying guy.”

Her pretty face flushed red as she fought to contain her embarrassment.

Just then, someone reached the top of the stairs and saw Shu Han whispering intimately into Lin Moyu’s ear.

To an outsider, it looked like two lovers sharing a secret.

The newcomer’s eyes blazed with anger, “Han, is he the one you like?”

Shu Han straightened and replied matter-of-factly, “Of course. Now can you give up already?”

Lin Moyu turned to the man—tall, handsome, probably in his 30s—but his cold eyes and bitter expression gave him a distinctly sour presence.

The man gave Lin Moyu a disdainful once-over, then sneered at Shu Han, “So you like pretty boys.”

Xia Xue couldn’t help but snort. He really called Lin Moyu a pretty boy?

Lin Moyu now understood what kind of act Shu Han wanted him to play along with.

At first, he was just supposed to act as a shield. But now…

The man actually had the audacity to call him a pretty boy.

A dangerous glint flickered in Lin Moyu’s eyes. He asked coolly, “Who are you?”

The man smiled coldly, “Who do you think you are to ask that?”

That was the second time…

Lin Moyu’s gaze turned cold and sharp.

Shu Han whispering softly, “He’s Shui Junzhi, eldest son of the Shui Family from Xiaguang City.”

“He’s an Ice Knight—a legendary class user, level 68."

The closeness between them only deepened Shui Junzhi’s jealousy.

He clenched his fists, clearly moments away from violence.

Whoosh!

With a flash of white light, a massive maul materialized in Mu Xianxian’s hands. She stepped protectively in front of Lin Moyu, her eyes locked onto Shui Junzhi.

Innocent as she was, she didn’t care about his background.

If he dared touch Lin Moyu, she wouldn’t hold back. Win or lose, she’d fight.

Mu Xianxian was striking, almost as beautiful as Shu Han. Years of battle had gifted her with a bold, heroic charm Shu Han lacked.

Shui Junzhi’s eyes flicked to her briefly, a possessive gleam in his gaze.

“Seems pretty boys are quite popular...”

Before he could finish, his vision blurred. Lin Moyu was suddenly right in front of him.

As a level 68 Knight, Shui Junzhi had rich combat experience. He reacted instantly.

But reacting was one thing. Acting was another.

Before he could move, a dense layer of white bones covered his body.

Skill: Bone Prison!

Against a class user like him, especially against a single target, Bone Prison had a nearly 100% success rate. Its duration was terrifyingly long.

Unless Shui Junzhi could somehow break free, he’d be immobilized for at least half an hour.

After trapping him, Lin Moyu delivered a slap to his face.

Smack!

The crisp sound echoed through the restaurant.

Then came two more slaps.

Lin Moyu spoke coldly, “Three slaps—just a small warning. Say something reckless again, and I’ll kill you.”

The murderous intent behind his words rang clearly in Shui Junzhi’s ears.

A godly general must not be insulted…

Shui Junzhi was still in shock, unable to process what Lin Moyu had just said.

All he felt was burning humiliation—dozens of eyes had just witnessed him being slapped.

Rage surged in his chest, and then blue light flared from his body.

Knights had a skill to break free from control effects, and Shui Junzhi was no exception.

The Bone Prison trembled under the force. But just as he was about to break free, a silent flame drifted into his mind.

His mouth was open, but no sound came out.

The Bone Prison had paralyzed him completely, with only his eyes being able to move.

Though his body was numb, it couldn’t stop the agony piercing his soul.

Lin Moyu’s control over Soul Blaze was so refined he could modulate its intensity at will.

A single cast was enough to interrupt Shui Junzhi’s skill, forcing him to remain frozen in place.

He didn’t dare move again.

The pain was terrifying. This moment would haunt him for the rest of his life.

Lin Moyu, calm as ever, spoke as if nothing had happened: “Stand here and reflect on your actions.”

With that, he turned and left the restaurant.

Shu Han was the first to follow, hurrying to Lin Moyu’s side and linking arms with him.

"Committing to the act all the way?" Lin Moyu mused, but didn’t pull away. Since he had agreed to help, he would see it through.

“Wait for me!” Mu Xianxian called out, rushing over to grab Lin Moyu’s other arm. She shot Shu Han a glare, her expression full of defiance.

Seeing the look on her face, Shu Han realized she’d misunderstood. But she said nothing.

With a girl on each arm, Lin Moyu walked out, the envy of everyone watching.

Feng Xiu muttered, “Why aren’t we leaving?”

Xia Xue shot him a glare, “Why would we? We haven’t even finished eating.”

Zuo Mei snorted, “What, you want to go be a third wheel? Or did one of the girls catch your eye?”

Feng Xiu waved his hands quickly, “No, no! Nothing like that. Let’s eat…”

Meanwhile, Shui Junzhi was left standing alone as punishment.

The vivid red handprints on his face were impossible to ignore.

His skill had been interrupted. It would be ten minutes before he could use it again. Until then, all he could do was stand there like a statue, on display for everyone to see.

The twenty-plus female Yeyu Knights, led by Jialan Yeyu, chatted in low voices among themselves.

Whatever they were saying, Shui Junzhi was sure it was about him.

“Bastard! I’ll kill you! I’ll tear you limb from limb!”

“And Shu Han—damn you! I won’t let this go. Never!”

Hatred and anxiety churned in his heart. He had never been so utterly humiliated. A deep grudge had taken root in his heart, one that would never fade.

Outside the restaurant, Shu Han suddenly let go of Lin Moyu’s arm, her face flushed.

“Thank you for helping me, Junior Lin.”

Lin Moyu shook his head, “No need to thank me, Senior Shu. I was happy to help.”

“After this, that Shui Zhijun guy will probably stop pestering you. He’ll just hate you instead.”

Shu Han smiled, “Hatred is better than harassment. I’m not afraid of him—he’s just annoying.”

“Ah!” Mu Xianxian suddenly gasped and yanked her hand back.

Only then did she realize it had all been an act. She had completely misunderstood the situation.

Her behavior just now...

Shu Han had already returned to her usual graceful demeanor, “Little Sister, no need to be jealous of me.”

Mu Xianxian’s face turned bright red, “I... I wasn’t jealous.”

Seeing her innocence, Shu Han didn’t press further.

“Junior Lin, are you here for the Divine Stone Dungeon too?”

Lin Moyu shook his head, “No, I’m just a guest. What about you, Senior Shu?”

Shu Han gave a bitter smile, “I got dragged into the matchmaking event and ran into that guy. He’s been bothering me nonstop. I couldn’t shake him off. So annoying.”

Lin Moyu chuckled, “If he bothers you again, just let me know. I’ll break his arms and legs.”

Shu Han burst into laughter, “Alright, I’ll hold you to that. Is Mo Yun looking for you?”

Lin Moyu nodded, “Yeah, though I’m not sure what it’s about.”

“Probably the same thing as me. You should go talk to her when you get a chance. She’s been under a lot of stress lately.”

With a charming smile, Shu Han turned and walked away.

Lin Moyu couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Did he have “human shield” written somewhere in his attributes?
