Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 798 - 752: The Immortal Young Master Is Injured

After all, no matter how you look at it, Lin Yi, as a modern person, doesn't believe someone would end their life over a single word.

However, he overlooked the fact that the era he belonged to at this moment was not the modern society of the 21st century.

Instead, it was an ancient society with feudal elements—where if a ruler ordered a minister to die, the minister must comply, even unwillingly.

Even a joke could be taken as a solemn directive.

Moreover, at this moment, Lin Yi was like an Immortal, even more feared than kings.

As such, when Lao Liu heard Lin Yi's joking words, he didn't take them as a joke.

This development caught Lin Yi off guard.

In Lin Yi's heart, he never intended for this guy to die.

Regardless of whether he liked the guy, he was a living person, how could he end his life over a mere jest?

If this man really hit the wall and died in front of him today, it would leave an unresolved knot in Lin Yi's heart.

But the guy was incredibly strong and reacted far too quickly.

The wall wasn't far from him, just a dozen steps away.

So when Lin Yi reacted, the man was already close to the wall's edge.

Watching the guy's big head heading straight for the wall, with a look of relief on his face.

This made Lin Yi's face change; without time to think, he flashed quickly, his Iron Man Armor Jet Propulsion System propelling him forward.

With no time to respond, he forcibly positioned himself between Lao Liu and the wall.

He wasn't a real Immortal; he couldn't pull Lao Liu back from a distance with a wave of his hand.

He couldn't throw something to intercept Lao Liu precisely, either.

Therefore, he could only use his body as a cushion between them.

Everyone around had been stunned long ago; no one expected the Immortal Young Master to instruct Lao Liu to hit the wall.

Though it was beyond their imagination, they felt no hatred toward Lin Yi.

Even though Lao Liu was their comrade in life and death, they didn't think he had done anything wrong.

If it had been them, faced with Lin Yi's words, they too would have hit the wall without hesitation.

This was the mindset of their generation.

Even Leng Yu at this moment didn't resent Lao Liu for his actions.

Yet, as everyone was lost in their thoughts, lamenting their dear friend's impending doom, they saw a figure blur before their eyes.

Suddenly, the Immortal Young Master standing several steps away appeared between Lao Liu and the wall.

This change was unexpected for everyone, including Lao Liu.

He was about to hit the wall, so he closed his eyes and began speculating internally about the sensation of the coming impact.

Maybe it would hurt a lot, or perhaps he wouldn't feel any pain at all.

Yet amidst such wild thoughts, he heard a muffled thud and felt his head hit something.

He knew the force with which he collided—if it were the wall, he wouldn't have survived.

This was because of the Immortal Young Master's command; having chosen to end it all, he wouldn't hold back.

However, surprisingly, despite the massive impact, he felt no pain but a soft sensation, perplexing him immensely.

"Hey, why am I okay? Is hitting a wall supposed to feel like this? It's not uncomfortable at all!"

That dimwit stood upright after the collision, rubbing his head in confusion.

Lin Yi, at this moment, was pressed against the wall, feeling a sharp pain in his chest and the uneven wall behind him.

The force of the collision nearly knocked him out.

Recovering slowly, Lin Yi heard Lao Liu's words and felt infuriated.

Fuming, he kicked him.

The kick landed on the guy's stomach, sending him sprawling.

Of course, while kicking, he retracted the Iron Man Armor into the System Space.

If not, the kick would have ended the guy's life.

Rubbing his chest, he angrily scolded Lao Liu:

"You idiot, who the hell told you to really hit the wall!

Damn it, while you're fine, you nearly knocked me out."

Lin Yi hadn't cursed in a long time, but this fool made him swear on the spot.

At this point, everyone was snapping out of it; Leng Yu quickly rushed over to assist the hunched Lin Yi, trying to soothe his chest.

"Young Master Lin, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?"

Evidently, Leng Yu was so concerned that she forgot Lin Yi's Immortal status due to his painful expression.

Even the nearby subordinates were shocked by the pained look on Lin Yi's face.

The god-like figure who didn't flinch against Yan Country's 10,000 cavalry wasn't harmed by them but got hurt by Lao Liu, the fool.

This made them look at Lao Liu with rage.

But since their leader was with Lin Yi, they couldn't move.

So, they stood by, fretting.

Someone yelled to beat him, which gave them direction.

In an instant, they rushed toward the bewildered Lao Liu lying on the ground.
