Chapter 139 Don't bring up the past with me, I hadn't quit smoking back then!
The heat was intense, and the stench of burning flesh was overwhelming.
Walter died without even receiving an urn; he simply returned to the earth.
At the same time, five figures landed opposite Lin Jianguo.
Five figures, all dressed in black robes embroidered with dark gold thorn patterns.
In that instant when no one appeared, the previously restless air seemed to freeze, and even the wind seemed to stop.
A sense of oppression instantly enveloped the entire venue.
If Walter in the pit was a burning fire, then these five old guys who suddenly appeared were a bottomless pool of water, so cold that it chilled you to the bone.
It's hard to imagine that such a person would be a church member praised by the world.
"Lin Jianguo..."
An elderly man standing in the middle spoke slowly.
His voice was hoarse, like two rusty pieces of iron rubbing against each other.
He wasn't holding a scepter, but rather a thick black book, his eyelids drooping as if he might fall asleep at any moment.
"You have some nerve."
The old man raised his eyelids, and his cloudy eyes were completely black, with no whites in them.
"When you left the West, you swore an oath before the idol that you would never set foot in the West again, and you would never lay a hand on anyone in the church."
"Now, not only have you come, but you have also killed Archbishop Walter right before our eyes."
"Do you want to reignite the conflict?"
Upon hearing this, the other four black-robed elders also took a step forward.
boom!
Five terrifying auras soared into the sky. Although they lacked the flashy light effects of Walter's, their solid pressure caused the concrete ground beneath their feet to crack inch by inch.
Faced with the questions from these five masters, Lin Jianguo simply tilted his head.
He casually picked at his ear with his little finger, then blew on it.
"oath?"
Lin Jianguo grinned, revealing a mouthful of gleaming white fangs, his half-beast-like face filled with mockery.
"You old bastard, are you out of your mind?"
"What happened back then, that was back then."
"Back then, I hadn't quit smoking yet. The words I spoke were like smoke rings I exhaled; they dissipated in the wind."
"Besides..."
Lin Jianguo's eyes suddenly turned cold, and a fierce glint appeared in his vertical pupils.
"You bunch of hypocrites are all setting your sights on the kids, how can I just sit idly by?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"If you're going to fight, then fight! Stop beating around the bush like a woman!"
mad!
That's absolutely outrageous!
These words shocked all five of them.
Shockingly...
The young man whom their church considered a heretic was actually Lin Jianguo's son...
Is there any justice in this world?
The father was already amazing, so how come the son is so abnormal?
Compared to the five people who were shocked, Lin Fan, who was watching from a distance, was clicking his tongue in disbelief.
"Old Lin's mouth really doesn't hold back."
"This wave of hatred has been firmly established."
really.
Upon hearing Lin Jianguo's words, the faces of the five old men opposite him instantly darkened.
As the chief arbitrators of the tribunal, they are revered by thousands wherever they go.
When have I ever been called "old bastard" by someone pointing their finger at me?
"Those who commit blasphemy shall be executed!"
On the left, a burly old man was the first to lose his temper.
He had a fiery temper and completely ignored the old man's commands. With a roar, he charged forward like a cannonball.
There were no fancy magical incantations.
The old man's muscles swelled instantly, bursting through his black robe and revealing his bronze skin.
That was a body that had been tempered and refined through countless trials, with every muscle containing explosive power.
"Holy Fist: Annihilation!"
The old man threw a punch, creating visible ripples in the air and producing a piercing sonic boom.
This punch was devoid of any fancy moves; it was pure power.
The brick flies with great force!
"Want to test your strength against me?"
Lin Jianguo, instead of retreating, advanced, his eyes filled with excitement.
"Perfect timing, I just finished warming up!"
He also threw a punch.
The fist, covered in dark red scales and radiating scorching heat, met the attack head-on.
boom! ! !
The two fists collided violently in mid-air.
Time seemed to stand still for a moment.
Followed by.
A shockwave, visible to the naked eye, spread wildly outwards from the two of them.
The abandoned cars in the parking lot were blown more than ten meters away by the blast wave.
Click!
A crisp sound of bone cracking rang out.
The burly old man from the tribunal's expression changed, and he flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
He did seven or eight somersaults in the air before finally landing, but his right arm was twisted in a strange way, clearly indicating a serious injury.
"this one?"
Lin Jianguo stood still, without moving an inch.
He flicked his wrist, a look of disdain on his face.
"This old guy is so old, instead of taking care of his retirement, he's trying to build muscle like a young person?"
Did you get brainwashed from practicing so much muscle?
"You think you can mess with me if you build up those dead muscles from protein powder?"
"Let's all come at once, saves me the trouble of dealing with them one by one!"
Look at how he said that, so domineering!
At this moment, Lin Jianguo was practically possessed by a god of war.
But Lin Fan keenly noticed that his father's hand, which was behind his back, was trembling slightly.
Several scales on the knuckles had also cracked, and traces of blood seeped out.
"Trying to be cool will get you struck by lightning, Dad..."
Lin Fan silently complained to himself.
Clearly, Lin Jianguo's victory over that punch wasn't as easy as it seemed on the surface.
After all, they are powerful figures from the Tribunal; they are not so easy to deal with.
"Arrogant!"
The old man leading the group, who was wearing a black book, had a face so gloomy it could drip water.
"Since you're courting death, then so be it!"
"Form ranks!"
At his command, the remaining four men moved instantly.
The old man with the broken hand gritted his teeth, had his bone set, and rushed forward.
Five people, five directions.
They instantly surrounded Lin Jianguo.
"Holy Word - Binding!"
The old man holding the book opened the black-covered book and his fingers flew across it quickly.
Invisible shackles appeared out of nowhere and tightly bound Lin Jianguo.
Lin Jianguo felt a sudden heaviness in his body, as if a mountain was weighing him down, and his movements instantly slowed down.
"Holy Sword - Slaying Sin!"
Another old man conjured a lightsaber out of thin air and slashed it down hard at Lin Jianguo's back.
This sword strike was swift, accurate, and ruthless!
Lin Jianguo tried to dodge, but the restraints on his body made him a beat too slow.
It's sizzling!
Sparks flew everywhere.
The lightsaber struck the scales, producing a piercing scraping sound.
The incredibly tough scales were forcibly cut open, and blood splattered everywhere.
"hiss--!"
Lin Jianguo gasped in pain.
"That fucking hurts!"
He swung his elbow back, forcing the swordsman back, but then the attacks of the other three men came.
The force of the punches, the shadows of the legs, and that eerie mental impact.
It poured down like a violent storm.
As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands.
Even a hero can't withstand a pack of wolves.
Even the best woman can't resist... cough cough...
Lin Jianguo, who had been so imposing just moments before, was suddenly at a disadvantage.
boom!
The burly old man seized the opportunity and kicked Lin Jianguo in the lower back.
Lin Jianguo grunted and staggered forward a few steps.
Before he could even stand up straight, a black book slammed into his forehead.
Boom!
That was a solid hit.
Lin Jianguo felt dizzy and his head was buzzing.
"You old bastard, you're throwing a book at people? Have you no sportsmanship?!"
Lin Jianguo roared and turned around to deliver a sweeping leg kick.
They forced back the crowd's attack.
But he does look rather disheveled right now.
His vest was already tattered, the scales were cracked everywhere, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
"Lin Jianguo, surrender now."
The old man holding the book stood on the periphery, watching him coldly.
Your time has passed.
"Right now, you're nothing more than a trapped beast."
"A trapped beast?"
Lin Jianguo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes grew brighter and brighter.
That was the fierce glint of a wounded wild beast.
"In my life, I hate it most when people try to reason with me."
"Especially you hypocritical charlatans!"
"Trying to arrest me?"
"Then let's see if you have the teeth!"
roar--!!!
Lin Jianguo looked up at the sky and roared.
His muscles swelled again, and his originally dark red scales began to turn black.
An even more terrifying and violent aura erupted from his body.
"madman!"
"He's willing to fight to the death!"
