It's Lonely to Be Invincible

Chapter 121: I, Lin Fan, Am Not a Cold-Hearted Person

At Scaled Dragon Lake, the calm lake appeared completely unremarkable. In some people’s opinion, it was a very beautiful place; fish could be swimming joyfully in its clear water.

But if one really thought so, they couldn’t be any more wrong.

Scaled Dragon Lake was famous for its Gorefiend Dragons. Once, a couple playing in the water was suddenly swallowed in one go; the lake was dyed red with their blood. Only then did it come to everyone’s notice.

However, the Gorefiend Dragons hid in the depths of Scaled Dragon Lake; no one had caught sight of them, ever. And no one dared to go down. The last Gorefiend Dragon was only killed after luring it out with everyone’s help, but now, it would be harder to kill even more than it was before; after all, the remaining Gorefiend Dragon must have wised up.

Song Zhenshan advised, looking at the people around him, “All unconcerned people, please keep your distance or you might get accidentally injured. The Gorefiend Dragon is vicious.” Then, he switched to warning in a second, “If I see someone steal our kill when we are attacking it, don’t blame us for not showing mercy.”

Sweet talk was necessary, and so was the warning.

No decent person could be found in Cumulus Bazaar. Everyone cared about how they could bring themselves benefit and harm others. Anything could happen here.

Mo Lingyu said, “The Gorefiend Dragon is hiding in Scaled Dragon Lake. We can’t do anything if it doesn’t come out.”

“Haha.” Song Zhenshan burst into laughter before assuring, “Don’t worry, Miss Mo, the four of us naturally have our means. But before we start, we have to make some preparations.”

Besides Song Zhenshan, the other three too had solemn looks blanketing their faces. Everyone knew how strong Gorefiend Dragons were; especially this Gorefiend Dragon, which was far stronger than the last one.

If they didn’t make any preparations, victory could lean toward either side, but them getting swallowed in one go would be the most likely scenario.

“Do you think they can kill the Gorefiend Dragon?”

“It’s hard to say! They might be at the fifth stage of the Earth Star Border Realm, but the Gorefiend Dragon is a monster. They are rumored to be offspring of real divine dragons. Their bloodline is much higher than that of average monsters; their strength is immeasurable.”

“Miss Mo invited an expert in the past, but that expert left in the middle of the night. I am afraid that he left because he knew that he was not a match for the Gorefiend Dragon.”

“That’s called foresight. Song Zhenshan and his team have never seen how fearsome a Gorefiend Dragon is. I’m afraid they will come to regret it after they see it. The last Gorefiend Dragon was hunted by six experts of Earth Star Border Stage Five; three of them were grievously injured, and one even had his arm eaten by the Gorefiend Dragon. How miserable!”

Song Zhenshan was setting up the traps. Although they seemed really fearsome, these little tricks were hardly anything for a Gorefiend Dragon.

A robust man carrying an axe came to Song Zhenshan and asked in a low voice, “What if we are in danger?”

“Run,” Song Zhenshan replied without a shred of hesitation.

Uncle Cheng by Mo Lingyu’s side whispered, “Miss, do you think you can do it this time?”

Mo Lingyu shook her head. “We still have to give it a try, we don’t have much of a choice. We can’t delay any longer.”

Uncle Cheng lowered his head. Miss is right! We indeed can’t afford any delays. But unfortunately, the experts of the Cumulus Bazaar ventured into the danger zone already. According to the rumors, some rare treasure seems to have appeared there, and they went to check the validity of this rumor.

Now, the Cumulus Bazaar can only offer these four experts of Earth Star Border Stage Five. If they fail, we will really be left with no alternative.

Song Zhenshan looked at Mo Lingyu. “Miss Mo, we are going to force the Gorefiend Dragon to come out. Please step back, lest you get injured.”

Mo Lingyu nodded in agreement. “Thank you.”

The next moment, the four made their way to Scaled Dragon Lake, looked at each other, and took a deep breath. Immediately, fearsome streams of energy broke out from their bodies, crashing straight down into Scaled Dragon Lake.

“So strong! So this is the power of an Earth Star Border Stage Five, huh?”

“Song Zhenshan is practicing the exercise Strength of Mountain. Many people find it hard to take a single blow from him. Among the experts of Earth Star Border Stage Five, they are ranked among the top.”

Splash!

Just as the onlookers were whispering to each other, large amount of bubbles started gushing out as the ripples spread through the lake.

“The Gorefiend Dragon is coming out.”

The surrounding onlookers promptly retreated at the sight of it; they were taken aback by the Gorefiend Dragon’s strength.

Song Zhenshan and the others were also startled. How is this possible? Isn’t this Gorefiend Dragon living in the depths of the lake? Our energy hasn’t even gone that deep. Did it sense us?

The bubbles gushing up grew bigger and bigger. The entire lake seemed as if it was boiling.

“Retreat, the Gorefiend Dragon is coming out!” The four retreated at once just as Song Zhenshan shouted at the top of his lungs.

The bubbling lake suddenly exploded as a fountain of water rose as high as a hundred feet, then a several-dozen-feet-long figure appeared in everyone’s sight. Under everyone’s horrified gaze, the Gorefiend Dragon shot straight into the air as if it could fly.

“What’s going on? How can this Gorefiend Dragon fly?”

“Look, this Gorefiend Dragon is bleeding, it isn’t heavily injured, is it?”

“What!? How is this possible? Why is the Gorefiend Dragon injured? Song Zhenshan and his team has hit it big time. This Gorefiend Dragon has suffered injuries.”

While everyone was whispering to each other, Song Zhenshan and his team were overjoyed at the first notice of this scene. “The Gorefiend Dragon is injured, attack.”

Bang!

The four bounced back up, charging straight at the Gorefiend Dragon, displaying their respective supernatural power.

But right at that moment, the lake exploded once again as a figure flew into the air and shouted, “All of you can f*** off, this is mine.”

Song Zhenshan and the others were momentarily started. They suddenly felt a fearsome force blowing on their faces like a wave. The violent energy took them by surprise. They were immediately pushed back by that terrifying force, pushing them back on the ground.

“Gorefiend Dragon, let’s see if you can still survive after this.” Lin Fan gave chase as a giant palm grabbed a hold of the Gorefiend Dragon’s tail.

The Gorefiend Dragon struggled and roared when it felt this pull. But as a matter a fact, horror could be found in its roars.

Lin Fan, unleashing his entire strength, tightened his hold and jumped high up into the air before slamming the Gorefiend Dragon straight to the ground.

“Go to hell.”

The dozen-feet-long body of the Gorefiend Dragon cut through the air and crashed fiercely into the ground like a braided rope.

Boom!

The crowd of onlookers was dumbfounded at the sight of this scene; all they could feel was the ground quaking under their feet.

“It’s Gentleman Lin.” When Mo Lingyu caught sight of the figure, she immediately covered her mouth, a look of disbelief plastered on her face.

Uncle Cheng was even more shocked. He never expected Gentleman Lin to be here attacking Gorefiend Dragon already.

And by the looks of it, the Gorefiend Dragon seemed to be in its death throes already.

Roar!

The Gorefiend Dragon let out a miserable wail as it started coughing blood. It kept clawing on the ground, trying to escape into the distance, but its body kept being pulled back.

“You still want to run? Get over here!” Lin Fan, holding the tail of the Gorefiend Dragon, pulled the Gorefiend Dragon over violently, just like a tug of war.

Immediately after, he took his mace out of the storage ring and smashed it straight on the Gorefiend Dragon’s head, splattering its brain and blood all over the ground.

“So cruel, so strong!”

“Who is this guy? Even the fearsome Gorefiend Dragon was slayed so easily.”

“This...”

Everyone was already astounded, and some were even finding it impossible to believe. In their opinion, this guy was truly strong.

Points +500

Lin Fan halted his movements and looked about; he didn’t expect to see such a crowd here.

He had been trapped by the Gorefiend Dragon since last night. After somehow piling up enough points, he directly comprehended the Magic of the Seven Gods and entered Invincible Mode, wreaking havoc. In the end, the Gorefiend Dragon wanted to escape, which was nothing more than a dream.

And when he caught sight of Miss Mo here, he was very happy from the bottom of his heart. Ah, the bankroller is also here, the deal can be finished right away.

Immediately, Lin Fan smashed the Gorefiend Dragon’s head into nothing, took its fist-sized inner core out, and dragged the corpse of the Gorefiend Dragon to Mo Lingyu.

“Miss Mo, our transaction is complete. Take this Gorefiend Dragon Inner Core and give me the money,” Lin Fan said, stretching his hand out.

Mo Lingyu’s eyes turned dull, looking at Gentleman Lin’s bloody face and the Gorefiend Dragon back and forth. For a while, she didn’t know how to react.

Song Zhenshan and his team were also anxious after having seen the Gorefiend Dragon brutally hammered to death. They didn’t want all of their work to go down the drain. So, they immediately shouted.

“Miss Mo, we were invited by you. Although we didn’t kill the Gorefiend Dragon, we didn’t work for nothing.”

Lin Fan withdrew the Gorefiend Dragon Inner Core as soon as he heard this. There was a dissatisfied look on his face as he rebuked, “Miss Mo, what the hell is this? Is it because you didn’t trust me? I, Lin Fan, always do what I say, I have never missed an appointment. You are humiliating me like this. Eighteen million is a pretty big sum.”

Uncle Cheng hurriedly explained, “Mr. Lin, our Miss didn’t mean to humiliate you.”

Miss Mo apologized, “Gentleman Lin, please forgive me, it’s this little girl’s mistake for not thinking about it properly. This little girl is grateful to Gentleman Lin for killing the Gorefiend Dragon so quickly.” Then, she immediately took out a stack of bills and continued, “I hope this will compensate Gentleman Lin for all the trouble we have caused.”

Lin Fan might have been maintaining a displeased look, but he was counting it secretly; apparently, it was thirty million. Lin Fan’s heart was brimming with joy. He heaved a sigh and said, “Forget it, Miss Mo is also eager to save her father. I, Lin Fan, am not a cold-hearted person. This Gorefiend Dragon Inner Core is yours.”

Afterward, he took the stack of bills and threw it into his storage ring casually while maintaining a nonchalant look, showing that he didn’t care about it at all.

“Money and riches don’t mean anything to me. However, I admire Miss Mo’s conduct very much. It would be disrespectful to decline Miss Mo’s kind intentions.”

Lin Fan’s wording and actions didn’t have a single flaw. They were very normal and ordinary.

But it showed Lin Fan’s unique temperament of treating money as nothing.

Mo Lingyu leaned forward and thanked in a gentle voice, “Thank you for being so understanding, Gentleman Lin.”

Lin Fan just nodded with a mhmm, showing his generosity.
