《Life of a Villain》Chapter 48: Hunt (IV)

“Looking for someone?”
A deep voice echoed in the woods, and the young man’s brow furrowed as he searched the forest for the source of the voice. But a sigh escaped his lips as he stared at his bodyguards, who were approaching and encircling him.
“You are here, right?” The young man stood on the rock, his thumb rubbing a ring on his ring finger, and he looked in a direction. A slight smile formed on his face as he noticed a half-masked, silver-haired man in a black robe strolling towards him.
Andy’s brow furrowed as his blue eyes were locked on the man standing on the rock with his hands crossed, surrounded by some young bodyguards before he looked at the young girl sitting on the ground. It piqued his interest as he saw the girl was staring resentfully at the young man.
Yo, Young Master Lin! How are you? I heard you wanted to welcome me with open arms. But I’m surprised to see you standing with your hands crossed. You let me down." Andy sighed and shook his head, still strolling towards Young Master Lin.
“You still came here knowing you were going to die today? I commend your bravery. But, you know? You chose the wrong family to mess with. You made my brother look foolish, and then you threatened my family with your petty words. Even if you are from the higher world. Could nobody save you from me?” Young Master Lin smiled as a spherical object appeared in his hand. Even his bodyguards started laughing when they heard Young Master Lin’s words as they stared at Andy.
Andy’s steps came to a halt, and his smile faded as he stared at the object in Young Master Lin’s hand, before shifting his gaze to the young man and finally to his four so-called bodyguards. His head tilted slightly before he disappeared from the spot.

Suddenly, there was silence in the forest, as if time had stopped, as four figures of Andy appeared in front of each of the bodyguards before punching them in the face. Blood and brain splattered everywhere as the headless bodies fell to the ground.
The three figures vanished as Andy took out a cloth to clean his bloodied hands, his head shook in disappointment, and he strolled towards the man in the middle.
Young Master Lin froze on the spot, blood trickling down his face as his widened eyes stared at Andy. His heart thumped for a moment and a determined expression flashed across his face before he tossed the spherical seal into the air. His heart relaxed and his lips curled into a smile as he noticed Andy had come to a halt and was staring at the huge spherical ball suspended in the air.
Andy paused in his place as he stared at that ever-enlarging huge metallic spherical ball hovering in the air, and his body even felt some pressure directed at him from that spherical ball. His brows furrowed when suddenly a proud voice reached his ears.
“Now you know why are you going to die today? It is the ancestral seal passed down to our Lin Family. And it was given to me especially to deal with you. Don’t even think about escaping and feel proud that you are going to die by my hands, our ancestor who came down from the middle world gave that seal to us. Even a Heavenly realm cultivator couldn’t escape from that seal.”
Andy frowned as he heard those words before looking down to see Young Master Lin, who was still standing on the rock with his prideful eyes staring at him.
But a smirk appeared on Andy's face and his blue eyes turned red as the long sword appeared in his hand before he threw it at the sphere. A straight white light flashed as it collided with the sphere, followed by a booming voice filling the forest.

BOOOOMMMMM
Young Master Lin froze on the spot, his bulging eyes fixed on the collision, and his gaze followed the trajectory of the white light as it returned to Andy, but his heart skipped a beat when he heard a crack. His gaze returned to the sphere, which shrank, and a thick crack appeared on it before it split in two and fell to the ground.
His face became strange as his heart thumped and an immense pressure descended on him. His legs wobbled as he staggered before being lifted off the ground by the neck. His legs dangled in the air, a sense of suffocation filling his chest as a pair of bright red eyes stared at him.
“Did you notice that? Think about what would happen to you. But guess what? I’m getting tired of teaching the fools over and over, but no one understands that there are some people they can’t afford to offend. See, you’re going to die because your foolish father gave the worthless seal to his worthless son, who is just like any other young masters who shit from their mouths before thinking. Anyway, I will not kill you. Your Lin family will see another of their sons turn fool before they vanish from the face of the earth. But first, pray that no animal will attack you before you leave this place.”
Young Master Lin struggled furiously as he heard those words and a sense of fear bubbled up in his heart. Suddenly a fair long finger touched his forehead before a bright light covered his eyes, which turned foolish as the light vanished as a drool leaked from his mouth.
Andy frowned as drool touched his hand before hurling the body at a safe distance. But his gaze was drawn to the girl’s unconscious body lying on the ground. His eyes were fixed on the girl for a moment before a sigh escaped his lips as he crouched and touched the girl’s forehead, and the white light entered the girl’s head.
“Sorry, but I can’t take the risk,” he muttered as he stood up and vanished from the spot.
