NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 19 - Who Is This Young Man?
Chapter 19 – Who Is This Young Man?
Then it was just a single head, falling from high in the sky and crashing down to the ground.
A long, ugly head, like a limbless fish, struggled and rolled on the ground.
But it was already helpless!
Swish!
The next moment, Ling Tian descended, his sword stopping at the center of its forehead.
“Answer the question!” Ling Tian’s cold voice followed.
From start to finish, his expression remained unchanged, just like his unwavering gaze.
“I … I don’t know, I don’t know, No. 1 never reveals its whereabouts!”
The Tentacle Puppeteer, with only a single head remaining, finally pleaded for mercy, “Spare me … I might be able to help you …”
Swish!
But the next moment, Ling Tian had already cut off its head.
If it didn’t know, there was no need to keep it alive.
Spare it? Certainly impossible!
After cutting off this ugly Tentacle head, Ling Tian bent down and took out a core from its viscous brain, a core the size of a child’s fist.
It was a core emitting a brilliant blue light, a Puppeteer Core.
Inside the core, there was a number!
10!
It was indeed a top-ten Puppeteer, No. 10, the Pain-Type Puppeteer!
Everyone around was shocked looking at the Puppeteer Core that Ling Tian had taken out.
Even Yan Yuding, who had just come out, widened his eyes!
No. 10?
It was actually a top-ten Puppeteer?
Who was this young man?
He effortlessly killed a top-ten Puppeteer?
The higher the rank of the Puppeteer, the more powerful it was, with the top-ten undoubtedly being of kingly caliber.
Yet Ling Tian had defeated it so easily?
This young man must be a top expert!
Yan Yuding had originally wanted to see what he should do if it were an ordinary person or a regular Puppeteer causing trouble on his turf. But he hadn’t expected to encounter a top-ten Puppeteer, and it had died at the hands of this young man. A fighter of this caliber was beyond his league.
Though Yan Yuding was the underground overlord of the Lin City area and had many subordinates, assets, and weapons, he was still a local boss, and he clearly understood that he and the opponent were not on the same level.
At this moment, Ling Tian turned his head and looked directly at Yan Yuding.
Yan Yuding raised his eyebrows and his heart skipped a beat!
He quickly lowered his head slightly and said, “Little brother, rest assured, no one will know about this incident here. I will handle it discreetly, and I won’t reveal a single bit of information about you.”
He was an old hand in such matters. In this situation, he knew exactly what to say and do.
With the way this young man looked, if you dared to give him trouble or cause trouble for him, he would never let you off.
After all … in this world, someone capable of killing a few people or even a group of people wasn’t something extraordinary.
Yan Yuding could feel the chilling aura emanating from Ling Tian, as if it could erupt like a ferocious beast at any moment.
An intimidating presence!
Ling Tian just glanced at Yan Yuding, then withdrew his gaze.
He left with the Puppeteer Core.
In fact, Ling Tian hadn’t wanted Yan Yuding to do these things …
The reason he looked at Yan Yuding was that if Yan Yuding wanted to cause trouble, he could easily take care of Yan Yuding and the others.
Unexpectedly, Yan Yuding immediately spoke and tried to please him, so Ling Tian didn’t need to pay any more attention to him.
He wasn’t afraid of being discovered or exposed by others.
Even if he was discovered, no one could do anything to him!
Furthermore … in a few months, it would be the end of the world. Who would care about these things then? Who would be able to investigate him?
So he always acted openly and unscrupulously!
He killed whomever he wanted to kill, and did whatever he wanted …
After Ling Tian left, all that remained was the knife he had used.
There was also a scene of chaos and the shattered remnants of No. 10, the Pain-type Puppeteer!
Seeing Ling Tian’s departure, Yan Yuding let out a long sigh.
When Ling Tian had looked at him just now, he had indeed felt an unprecedented fear.
This young man was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
If Ling Tian had used a slightly harsher tone or caused trouble in any way, Yan Yuding would probably have already met his end!
“Mr. Yan? Are you just letting him go like this?” At this moment, someone spoke around him.
“Nonsense! Do you want him to pay for it?” Yan Yuding walked up slowly, speaking slowly, “This is a top-ten Puppeteer. It should be invulnerable to swords and spears, difficult for ten thousand people to defeat. Yet, in his hands, it was as fragile as tofu! Can we afford to provoke such a person?”
As he spoke, he picked up the knife that Ling Tian had used and thrown to the ground.
This was just an ordinary knife, a knife made of ordinary steel.
But in different hands, it could have different effects!
In their hands, it might break rebar and concrete with a single swing.
But in Ling Tian’s hands, it could cut through gold and jade.
Yan Yuding looked at the sharp blade of the knife in his hand, then raised his head and looked at the collapsed ceiling and the sparks of electricity flickering overhead.
“Everyone, leave quickly; this place is about to collapse!”
He continued, “For today’s events, no matter who asks, say you didn’t see anything clearly, and all the surveillance cameras malfunctioned! Do you understand?”
“Yes!”
Everyone nodded and quickly left together.
Sure enough, shortly after everyone had left, this nightclub, half the size of a sports stadium, completely collapsed and turned into a ruin…
Although Yan Yuding lost over a hundred million in one go, he dared not make Ling Tian compensate …
