The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 693 - 201 Heartless Young Master Lin

"You insolent brat, take my sword strike!"

Green Lotus made the first move, slashing with his sword.

The swordplay of the Qinglian Sword Manual was profound, and executed by a cultivator of the Celestial Knowing Realm like him, it was even more formidable. Petals of Green Lotus bloomed from the tip of his sword, the strike dazzling yet filled with lethal intent.

"All flash and no substance."

Lin Yun casually extended two fingers, and with two clinks, Green Lotus’s sword was caught between them.

Lin Yun could have used a more stable method to respond, but one had to admit, catching a sword between two fingers was indeed stylish.

Strength is just a matter of one or two moves, but style, that’s for a lifetime.

Seeing this, Green Lotus was stunned.

He knew that Lin Yun was exceptionally gifted, but he had not realized his talent was to such an extent.

Just a moment ago, he thought Lin Yun said he couldn’t even touch his fingers because Lin Yun was confident in his agility, not expecting his strength to be so great.

How the hell did he cultivate?

Lin Yun pinched with his fingers, and a golden flame flickered over them, instantly breaking Green Lotus’s spirit sword into two.

Even a divine artifact couldn’t withstand Lin Yun’s fire, let alone mere spiritual energy; the sword broke just like that, and Green Lotus was inwardly shocked but heard Lin Yun say, "I took your sword strike, how about you take one from me?"

Green Lotus: "..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

This situation was not favorable, time to retreat.

The moment Lin Yun caught his sword, he knew he had to run for it.

Although escaping might mean being caught and tormented by Flower Fairy later, not running now could mean being caught and tormented by Lin Yun.

He was about to use his Escape Skill when he felt the air around him solidify, making it very difficult to even move, let alone escape.

With a gesture from Lin Yun, the Thunderclap Sword appeared in his hand.

Seeing the Thunderclap Sword, Green Lotus was greatly shocked: "It was you who stole the Thunderclap Sword back then!"

In that instant, the truth seemed to be right in front of him.

The case of the Thunderclap Sword’s Spirit theft from Purple Cloud Mountain was the reason he had to flee far away. It was also because of a message from Lin Yun that he relayed information to the Sect Hierarch, accusing Elder Yu Ling. The intelligence was wrong, they couldn’t find the trace, and he thought it was because Hu Yuling was too cunning.

Now it seemed that he himself was being played like a fiddle by Lin Yun.

Green Lotus was furious and resentful, but as he watched Lin Yun approach with the Thunderclap Sword, he was helpless and resigned himself to his fate.

However, what surprised him was that Lin Yun didn’t chop off his head; instead, he cut off his ’little head.’

When the intense pain hit, Green Lotus was utterly astonished.

"You’re actually so ruthless and merciless, aaargh..."

Green Lotus’s wails filled the air while Lin Yun considerately gave him a dose of electrotherapy.

People, the more they grow, the gentler they become.

Those like him, willing to heal their enemies, are now few and far between.

Hu Yuling watched from a distance what Lin Yun was doing to Green Lotus, also recalling how she had been outplayed by Lin Yun. Today, it seemed all was finally coming to an end.

However, Lin Yun did not kill Green Lotus; what was he planning to do?

If you don’t remove the roots when cutting weeds, problems are bound to rise again.

"You misunderstand me, Master. How could I be called ruthless and merciless? I just think you are suitable for entering the palace to find a factory job. Whether it’s Eastern Depot or Western Factory, they definitely need talented people like you."

Lin Yun’s face bore a slight smile as another bolt of lightning hit Green Lotus’s Dantian. The power of thunder surged in, shattering Green Lotus’s Dantian Qi Sea to pieces.

Green Lotus grunted, his face turning ashen.

Lin Yun’s move was too decisive and brutal; he truly seemed like someone born in the Demon Sect.

With his Dantian destroyed, Green Lotus still retained a certain level of strength. In the Celestial Knowing Realm, the Dantian’s importance was no longer as great as Divine Sense.

As long as his Divine Sense didn’t decline, although he’d be weaker than before and couldn’t progress any further, he would still possess the combat power of the Celestial Knowing Realm.

But still, in his prime, he was no match for Lin Yun, and now with his Dantian destroyed, his path was only downhill from there; there would be no chance for revenge in the future.

Green Lotus was filled with despair but also an immense unwillingness to accept his fate.

"Once I cripple your Divine Soul, you’ll be nothing but an ordinary old man, and in the Imperial Palace, you’ll probably be bullied by other eunuchs."

Lin Yun spoke lightly, sending shivers down Green Lotus’s spine.

The thought of becoming a eunuch in the palace, losing all his power, and being humiliated by mere mortals frightened Green Lotus. Unable to care about his dignity any longer, he pleaded with Lin Yun, "We have a teacher-disciple relationship, why must it come to this? Spare me and I am willing to be your foot soldier, at your beck and call."

Lin Yun let Green Lotus realize that death wasn’t the worst thing; if he didn’t beg for mercy now, he would truly have no chance left.

"You know what’s good for you."

Lin Yun sheathed the Thunderclap Sword, seemingly oblivious to the deeply hidden resentment in Green Lotus, and turned away from him, "Since you are willing to surrender, then help me investigate something."

"Just give your order."

Even the tone of Green Lotus’s voice had changed.

Lin Yun smiled subtly, showing a kind demeanor, but in his heart, he firmly sentenced Green Lotus to death.

Once he was done using him, he absolutely could not let Green Lotus live.

Although he was crippled now, nobody could guarantee that he wouldn’t gain a new opportunity and rise again to become a top cultivator. Only the dead can truly put one at ease.

This man, filled with hatred for him and with unwavering resolve; not killing him would simply be leaving an actor to add drama to his own life, right?

"I want you to infiltrate the White Lotus Sect Leader Zhang Biyu’s side and discover her secrets."

Green Lotus: "..."

Previously, he had arranged for Lin Yun to go undercover, but now it was Lin Yun arranging for him to go undercover.

This mission was no less life-threatening, and he was far from a nobody. With the identity of an Elder of the Green Lotus Sect, heading to the White Lotus Sect was undoubtedly suspicious. Zhang Biyu would surely harbor doubts about him, and once his cover was blown, he was acutely aware of how the Demon Sect dealt with traitors.

That fate may not be any better than falling into the hands of Lin Yun.

Besides, Liu Ji wouldn’t just stand by and watch him betray the Green Lotus Sect—there was still an old score to settle!

Although Hu Yuling’s defection had cleared his name, he had ultimately offended Liu Ji.

Green Lotus hesitated and struggled for a while without giving an answer until Lin Yun shocked him again, which finally snapped Green Lotus back to reality.

How the Demon Sect dealt with traitors was a concern for later; as long as he was careful enough, he might not be discovered. But if he dared not to agree, Lin Yun could chop him up right then and there.

In any case, the priority was to survive first.

Green Lotus nodded heavily, just relieved that his Divine Soul might have been spared, when suddenly his head felt as if it had exploded.

An overbearing and powerful force of Divine Soul burst into his body, tearing his Divine Soul into shreds, leaving only the smallest core piece intact.

Lin Yun’s ruthlessness exceeded his imagination.

And the strength of Lin Yun’s Divine Soul surpassed imagination; he couldn’t understand how Lin Yun had cultivated it to such a degree, invading his body and leaving him utterly unable to resist.

"Serve me well, and the cultivation you’ve lost can naturally be restored. But if you harbor a double heart, I’m not afraid of you. Now you couldn’t cause a ripple even if you tried," Lin Yun said coldly.

Lin Yun continued coldly, "I know you must hate me to death right now, but that’s okay. If you can, retaliate against me. If you can’t manage that, you’re welcome to take it out on my girlfriends instead—just so long as you can defeat them."

Green Lotus: "..."

Lin Yun didn’t need to say that; once he did, Green Lotus remembered the fear of being dominated by the Flower Fairy.

For a moment, Green Lotus’s mental state collapsed.

He had indeed thought of taking revenge on those close to Lin Yun if he couldn’t take revenge on Lin Yun himself. However, with both his physical body and Divine Soul’s cultivation demolished and being weaker than a mortal, Lin Yun’s women were all cultivators, and he stood no chance against them.

"You misunderstand me, how would I dare to be disloyal?"

"If you’re not, then get lost!"

With a wave of his hand, Lin Yun sent Green Lotus flying far away with a blast of palm wind, not knowing where he would end up.

Yuan Zihe, who was observing covertly, trembled as she watched Lin Yun show his fierceness.

She had never seen Lin Yun take action before, only knowing that he was popular with women and had a fair level of cultivation, which she assumed was about the same as hers. She hadn’t expected him to be so formidable!

It wasn’t so much the fact that he was strong that scared Yuan Zihe, it was Lin Yun’s ruthless demeanor that was truly terrifying.

She had thought Lin Yun was gentle and kind, but she had been very wrong.

Better not to provoke him.

Thankfully, Green Lotus had scouted ahead; otherwise, she might have unknowingly brought trouble upon herself by inviting Lin Yun back without precautions.

"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment."

In the end, Yuan Zihe had underestimated Lin Yun’s Divine Sense.

She had followed Green Lotus without being noticed, but her little movements had always been exposed to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun’s call immediately caused Yuan Zihe to freeze in place.

She turned her stiff body around, and as soon as she did, Lin Yun was already in front of her.

"I have seen Young Master Lin," she responded promptly, continuing to maintain her cover as a fisherwoman, but then she saw Lin Yun’s mouth twist as he took out the Qiaobian which transformed into ropes, binding her without a word.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Yuan Zihe didn’t understand why Lin Yun would suddenly lay hands on her. She struggled forcefully, but that only made the ropes bind her more tightly, accentuating her shapely figure and making the friction between the ropes and her body felt extremely shameful.

What kind of base binding method is this?

"If I’m not mistaken, you must be Yuan Zidan’s sister, right?"

Yuan Zihe: "!!?"

How could he have guessed that?

Yuan Zihe’s eyes widened in denial, "Young Master Lin, you have misunderstood. The Yuan Family caused the downfall and death of my family; how could I possibly be Yuan Zidan’s sister!"

"No need to deny it. Whether you are or not, I’ll just ask Yuan Zidan to confirm," Lin Yun said.

Lin Yun didn’t wait for Yuan Zihe to explain further. He picked her up and carried her back onto the boat, casually tossing her into the cabin, and said to Zhen Li and Xiao Qing, "Keep a close watch on her. Don’t let her escape."

This was mainly directed at Xiao Qing, who could easily handle this task with her abilities; as for Zhen Li, she was just along for the ride.

Long Xiaoman was still in the water pulling the boat toward the set direction. Lin Yun saw her but didn’t bother pulling her aboard.

Having a fish pull the boat was more comfortable than using magic himself.

With the small matters settled, Lin Yun finally flew to the shore of Cloud Dream Marsh, where Hu Yuling had been waiting for some time.

Upon seeing Lin Yun, she immediately knelt down and offered her tail to Lin Yun’s hand.

"Please, Master, punish me..."

Lin Yun: "..."

You’re so eager, I don’t have the heart to do it now...
