Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 686 - 658 Fighting Fate with Life

A shadow moved, and in an instant, countless other figures began to stir.

Their steps were uniform, dense as a swarm, easily numbering in the hundreds; they emerged in unison from the dense forest, gradually forming a circle around Lin Tian.

Half these people were from the Li Family, and the other half were subordinates of the masked man in black.

On that day, by having the Li Family lure Lin Tian into this small forest, employing bombs and sending assassins to hack at people, there was but one purpose.

To draw Lin Tian into this small forest.

Indeed, the Li Family had succeeded; through despicable and shameless sacrifice of over two thousand of their own, they had lured Lin Tian into this small forest and successfully ambushed him.

Lin Tian was taken aback and panicked, sensing trouble.

His own men, now only a little over two hundred in number, were still waiting for him in Capital City!

His forces had dwindled by half.

In contrast, the enemy forces surrounding him numbered four to five hundred, all masters of Mirror Condensing or Half-Step Mirror Condensing, facing a strength ratio of 1:2.

Most importantly, Lin Tian felt that there was something very suspicious about this small forest. Matters were far from as simple as he saw them; the forest must hold some sort of lethal trap. Otherwise, why would the Li Family so insistently draw him into the forest?

"Be cautious!" he secretly ordered.

His remaining men drew their weapons, their eyes fiercely fixed on the black-clothed figures surrounding them.

Then, three people slowly walked out from the back; one was Li Xiangqian, another was Li Xiangshang, and the third person, masked and dressed in red, wore that familiar ring.

Tiger Charm!

The Li Family had actually teamed up with Tiger Charm.

That's not right, Tiger Charm didn't have that many people; there couldn't be four to five hundred of them, so aside from Tiger Charm, the Li Family must have other allies.

Lin Tian's head was spinning; even he didn't know when he had offended all these people.

Li Xiangqian sneered, "Humph, Lin Tian, you have finally fallen into my trap. Our Li Family, with our legacy passed down through several generations, is not something a green boy like you can contend with."

"Shameless," Lin Tian cursed in anger.

"To lure me out, you actually didn't hesitate to massacre innocent civilians. The lives lost, the thousands of families suffering because of you... Do you not fear divine retribution for your actions?"

"Divine retribution, huh!"

Li Xiangqian was indifferent. "I only believe that man is destined to conquer nature. In this world, it's all about victory or defeat, the difference of a single thought. In my actions, I only look at outcomes, not the process. As long as you're dead, let alone a few hundred lives, even tens of thousands wouldn't matter to me."

Lin Tian's fists clenched tightly. Against such people, he truly had no words; their existence was an insult to the world.

"Hahahaha...!"

Seeing Lin Tian's ashen face filled with anger and helplessness, Li Xiangqian laughed excitedly. freewebnoveℓ.com

"Humph! Lin Tian, do you feel I'm shameless right now? Are you angry, wanting to kill me? But with your current state, can you really kill me?"

He glanced back at the few hundred men behind him, immensely proud.

"I never care about others, only myself, and our Li Family. That's why I will survive to the end, I will witness your death. You value loyalty and righteousness, but even a few civilians dying distresses you. What's the outcome, though? You're crushed, mercilessly crushed by me!"

"I'd rather betray everyone in the world than have the world betray me. To kill you, those few ants dying is worth it, too much worth it!"

"Hahahaha...!"

Massacring innocent civilians yet speaking as if he bore the moral high ground—do the lives of the commoners not count as lives?

Such people living in this world—where is the justice, where is the righteousness!

Lin Tian clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bloodshot. Today, he must kill Li Xiangqian, not only for He Qianqian's sake but also for the innocent lives that had been lost.

"Kill!"

A roar thundered from Lin Tian's mouth as he drew the Godslayer Sword, unleashing his most fierce moves, aiming straight for Li Xiangqian.

Li Xiangqian was not at all afraid, sneering, "Humph, now you want to kill me? Not even a chance. I told you, I will watch you die with my own eyes, hahahaha...!"

Accompanying a burst of sinister laughter, Li Xiangqian quickly retreated backward as a dozen or so ghostly figures rapidly surged forth.

They all wore masks and red clothes, fifteen in all—these were probably all the members of Tiger Charm.

The fifteen members of Tiger Charm, seeing Lin Tian, rushed at him as if he were a mortal enemy, swiftly wielding their weapons to strike him down.

Hundreds of other strong fighters from behind rushed towards Lin Tian as well.

Huo Shaotian and Jian Cangsheng took the lead, charging out, with the rest closely following. Though they were outnumbered, the despicable actions of Li Xiangqian had completely enraged them, ensuring their morale was not weakened.

In an instant, the previously silent forest turned into a battleground of slaughter, with True Yuan surging and Superpower wildly erupting, cries of battle shaking the heaven, symbolizing barbarism and bloodshed.

To kill Li Xiangqian, he must first deal with these fifteen Tiger Demons.

Every single Tiger Demon was carefully selected from the Ouyang Family, with immense strength. Killing them would inevitably lead to a bloody battle.

These fifteen Tiger Demons, well-trained, quickly surrounded Lin Tian in their midst, with fifteen weapons almost simultaneously striking toward Lin Tian.

The Godslayer Sword in Lin Tian's hand took the initiative, slashing out with one sweep.

Exceptionally sharp, the Godslayer Sword was divinely powerful, and with one slash, it broke three weapons. Lin Tian used the Flight Technique, leaping forward and with one kick killed a Tiger Demon, then with a backhand strike, he decapitated two more.

The battle had just started and within less than ten seconds, Lin Tian had already killed three Tiger Demons. The remaining demons were shocked by Lin Tian's prowess, but they were not intimidated in the least. The death of their companions only fueled their rage.

"Kill!"

The crowd shouted in unison, once again lunging to attack Lin Tian.

Lin Tian wielded the Godslayer Sword with one hand, sweeping it towards the crowd, while his other hand cast Burn the Heavens, with a Fire Dragon ascending to the sky, stirring up the winds from all around.

One Tiger Demon was cut down by Lin Tian's sword, while the rest urgently activated their Superpowers and True Yuan, joining forces to resist Lin Tian.

Eventually, two Tiger Demons were shaken to death by Lin Tian's Fire Dragon, and several others suffered varying degrees of minor injuries!

Three more had died, out of fifteen, six were now dead. The remaining ones were no match for Lin Tian. If the fight continued, they were doomed to be annihilated.

Lin Tian did not continue the assault, sheathing his sword, and standing with his hands behind his back.

"You Tiger Demons are all heroes and warriors. The Ouyang and Li Families have colluded, harming innocent civilians, bullying men and overpowering women, committing all manner of atrocities. If this is the case, why should you die for them? Preserve your useful beings, perform righteous deeds; that's the only way not to waste your talents."

Ultimately, Lin Tian did not wish to be their enemy. They were brave and loyal, deserving of Lin Tian's respect; it was only that they had followed the wrong leader, becoming Lin Tian's enemies. Lin Tian did not seek to make friends from foes but would be content as long as they weren't enemies, avoiding a life-and-death struggle.

Someone spoke up, "Lin Tian, stop trying to deceive us with your sanctimonious words. You destroyed the Ouyang Family, you deserve to die. Alive, we are people of the Ouyang Family; dead, we are its ghosts!"

Lin Tian's heart was struck. He saw loyalty in these men, but also blind loyalty.

"I advise you, leave early. If you fight me, it means death!"

"Hmph, one man stood forward."

"We, the Tiger Demons, are all unafraid of death. Even if we cannot kill you today, we will still take a bite out of you."

The remaining nine Tiger Demons looked at each other and nodded unanimously.

Then they attacked Lin Tian once more, their killing intent blooming, terrifying to behold.

They had resolved to fight to the death, intending not to necessarily kill Lin Tian but to at least inflict severe injuries on him.

Three men were the first to reach Lin Tian. He swung his sword, not expecting that these three would not even try to dodge, their weapons aimed directly at him.

It was a fight-to-the-death tactic, intent on mutual destruction.

Lin Tian quickly activated Burn the Heavens to block their onslaught. In the end, he killed three with one sword strike but was also injured by a blade, receiving a ten-centimeter wound on his shoulder, from which blood flowed profusely.

The remaining six Tiger Demons all attacked Lin Tian together, all fighting with utter disregard for their own lives. Lin Tian killed two with one sword strike, but his back was struck by their blades twice.

Burn the Heavens killed two more, but one person used their Superpower to launch an Ice Arrow, piercing deeply into Lin Tian's abdomen.

The last two, one fell to the Godslayer Sword, the other perished to Burn the Heavens, but before dying, they made a final effort to launch their weapons at Lin Tian, wounding his legs!

All the Tiger Demons were eliminated, but Lin Tian had sustained six wounds. Although none were fatal, the excessive blood loss weakened him.

Especially the Ice Arrow embedded in his abdomen caused him great damage. Any movement was excruciating, and blood flowed freely, impossible to staunch with his hands.

In less than three seconds, Lin Tian turned into a bloodied figure.

The Tiger Demons' suicidal method had indeed been effective; they had exchanged their lives for causing Lin Tian serious injury.

He quickly drank a healing potion. Now that his strength had increased, the healing potion could no longer provide the immediate effects it once had.

However, the healing potion still helped Lin Tian stop the bleeding.

Strike at the sickness to claim the life!

Li Xiangqian, observing from the side, noticed Lin Tian's grave injuries, swiftly gathered a dozen Condensed Mirror experts, and desperately attacked Lin Tian.

Lin Tian stood up, the Godslayer Sword danced wildly in the air, countless Sword Qi shot into the sky, with a frosty blade and boundless killing power. Despite his exhaustion, he massacred more than a dozen experts!

"Whew..."

Lin Tian sighed deeply. He felt weak from too much blood loss and was very tired after the continuous battles.

He felt an urge to sleep.

But at that moment, an abrupt change occurred. An overwhelmingly murderous intent enveloped everyone, sending chills down Lin Tian's spine, instantly banishing any hint of drowsiness, leaving instead a face filled with terror.
