Chapter 79: Chapter 71: Who Is Eight Great Mountains"What... do you... want to do?" The guy finally seemed a bit guilty. "Don’t be afraid, let’s play a death game first!" Lin Mu smiled insidiously, like a mischievous child specialized in causing trouble. Then, amidst Shi Jiangda’s howling cries, Lin Mu’s hands moved like lightning, slicing four cuts on his bare chest within a second, forming a "口" shape. Then, under Sophie’s horrified gaze, he tore off the flesh in the middle of the "口" shape. Looking at the pitiable large Zombie Slayer Shi Jiangda on the ground, he appeared like a lamb half-slaughtered, writhing in pain and screaming desperately. Meanwhile, Sophie watched this somewhat cruel and unfamiliar Lin Mu and then realized that when a man becomes ruthless, it actually makes him more manly. Lin Mu didn’t give him a moment to struggle, cutting open two more places on his body. Staring into the terrified eyes of the Big Zombie Slayer, he said, "Have you heard of an ancient torture called ’lingchi’? This punishment involves slicing off the flesh of the convict piece by piece with a blade until the person dies in agony... and it’s my favorite kind of punishment!" Shi Jiangda’s terrified eyes inadvertently met Lin Mu’s, and he found a silver-grey light flashing in the other’s gaze, piercing straight into his heart, plunging him into an inexplicable, boundless fear. In a half-awake, half-asleep state, he felt like a slaughter-ready livestock, unable to move, staring helplessly with fearful eyes. The terrifying presence, like a Devil, approached him step by step, in Profound Clothes and wielding the Profound Blade, stripping away all his clothes, slicing off pieces of his flesh one by one. Each cut elicited a scream, begging for release or a merciful death! But the man laughed, saying he enjoyed the pleasure of torturing lives, watching the life force gradually disappear was his greatest enjoyment as a perpetrator. At this moment, tears filled his eyes, tears of regret. "Do you regret it?" the man asked. He nodded because he realized he could no longer speak. "You regret being an assassin and now suffer the consequences, don’t you?" He still didn’t speak, just nodded heavily. "You regret competing with me, you shouldn’t have persisted against me, right?" He nodded vigorously with tears in his eyes, but suddenly he could speak, "Is it too late to regret now?" "Of course not!" The person reached out, shattering the entire dream within moments, realizing he was still lying on the ground, his flesh intact, and even his manhood still safe in his pants. It turned out it was all just a dream, encountering a nightmare-inducing terror demon! "Speak up, and tell me everything you know!" Lin Mu’s lips curled in a wicked smile. The Big Zombie Slayer now had none of his former stubbornness or toughness, nodding like a leaf in the breeze, "I am Corpse Emperor’s inside agent in Yunhai. Corpse Emperor used many connections and means to place me in this position. My original task was to locate items at the exhibition and report them to Corpse Emperor. He needs a very important item!" "Oh?" Lin Mu was stunned, "What item does Corpse Emperor want?" "It seems to be a painting of flowers and birds from the Ming and Qing dynasties. The painting itself isn’t particularly important, but it hides a great secret. Only Corpse Emperor knows the specific secret, I don’t, and I never asked." Lin Mu’s eyes emitted another beam of silver-grey light, directly probing into the depths of Shi Jiangda’s mind. Finding no dark, murky impurities there, it seemed he wasn’t lying. He then turned to Miss Su and asked, "Is there a painting of flowers and birds from the Ming and Qing in the exhibition’s antiques?" "Uh, yes," Sophie thought briefly and confirmed there was such a painting, "It’s supposedly a masterpiece by the painting master Eight Great Mountains from the late Ming and early Qing. But compared to other ceramics and jade, the painting isn’t particularly valuable!" "Eight Great Mountains?" Lin Mu curled his lip, "Eight people painting one painting?" "Pfft," Miss Su nearly spat blood, "Clearly it’s just one person! Eight Great Mountains is just a pen name, don’t you understand pen names? Lack of culture, truly frightening..." At this moment, a police siren suddenly blared outside, and a team of police officers led by Qi Manlin burst in. As soon as Qi Manlin entered, she tightly grasped her good friend Sophie’s hand. "Feifei, I’m sorry I’m late. Are you alright? I came to back you up as soon as I got the report..." "Uh," Lin Mu almost fainted, "Your Wancheng Police Station’s efficiency is truly admirable! Always showing up just when people are clearing the mess..." Sophie shook hands with Qi Manlin and thanked her, "Thank you, Manlin. Fortunately, Lin Mu returned in time, and I’m fine..." Seeing Lin Mu’s sarcastic mocking demeanor, Qi Manlin’s initial apology vanished completely, "Hmph, I dare swear on my chest, I, Qi Manlin, always prioritize Feifei’s safety over my own..." "Uh, actually, I’d also like to swear on your chest, that I care about Feifei’s safety..." seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Scram..." Qi Manlin erupted like a raging tigress! Sophie also glared angrily at Lin Mu, truly the big bad wolf who doesn’t know his place, even in front of his fiancée he tries to take advantage of others without picking a good place... "Manlin, let’s go sit inside..." Sophie took her good friend Qi Manlin inside, leaving the police outside to clean up the aftermath and take Shi Jiangda back to the station for further questioning. "Feifei, wait a minute!" Lin Mu called after the two beauties, "What else do you want?" Miss Su impatiently responded, the high-profile hero image from earlier completely vanished thanks to that dirty joke. "Uh, later show me that painting of flowers and birds by Eight Great Mountains. I want to study its secret!" "Hmm, don’t you know what you should do now?" The beautiful CEO’s voice was cold, "I know, rescue Xiaowan!" "Then hurry up!" "Alright, I’m on my way now!" Lin Mu, with a heavy heart, realized from this lesson that he must never express exaggerated behavior towards other women in front of the beautiful CEO; even the slightest improper thought was unacceptable! He swore to be an exemplary fiancé of five virtues.
