Chapter 090 Goodbye to the Pig

Seeing Lin Fei's somewhat dazed expression, the proprietress laughed and said, "What's wrong, kid? Are you scared? I'm afraid you're not so lucky that a senior expert just happened to pass by and save you. And if I'm not mistaken, the method your master left on you can only be used once, right? The Dharma Form manifests tens of thousands of miles away. Even a Dharma Form Realm expert at the third level probably can't do it a second time."

“You’re right. When I went down the mountain, my master left me with some tricks, but I can only use them once.” Lin Fei came back to his senses. “However, I’m not afraid of him. On the contrary, I hope he comes looking for me soon!”

The proprietress looked at Lin Fei suspiciously: "Oh? You don't necessarily have some other tricks up your sleeve, do you? Don't blame me for not warning you, although that pig was seriously injured by your master, it's not something a newly enlightened kid like you can handle. If you want to take advantage of his weakness and kill him, you've miscalculated."

Lin Fei smiled mysteriously: "I naturally have my own methods. If he dares to come looking for me, I'll make sure he doesn't leave alive!"

The proprietress smiled and said, "That would be perfect. Your head is worth so much these days, and my place is so conspicuous. I'm afraid someone will have already informed that Pig of your arrival as soon as you got here. As you wish, he will be here soon!"

……

The landlady's guess was correct; not long after Lin Fei arrived at the inn, someone had already tipped off Hai Zhu.

Ten thousand taels of gold, a single, finely refined weapon. Even renowned masters would likely find it hard to resist such temptation.

The Pig sat at the top of the hall, with more than a dozen people dressed in various styles standing below. It was they who had gathered intelligence about Lin Fei's whereabouts.

"You mean, the Jade Emperor Sect Taoist I was chasing has appeared at Sister Hong's inn?" Hai Zhu was wearing a mask, making it impossible to see his expression beneath. However, his words carried a barely concealed volcanic rage.

One of the men below respectfully replied, "Sir, it is that Taoist priest. My brothers and I have been keeping watch day and night in shifts, and today we finally discovered his whereabouts. We came to report to you immediately without the slightest delay. There are also many brothers watching outside the town, surrounding the entire town so that we can receive news as soon as he goes anywhere."

"Alright, I know you've had a hard time. You'll get what's rightfully yours, not a penny less!" The Pig glanced at the man indifferently, his fists clenching so tightly they cracked. "Good lad, you've finally shown up. I was severely injured by your wretched master, and I'll have to tear you to pieces to vent my anger!"

As they were speaking, a large amount of black energy suddenly surged from the pig's body, completely enveloping the entire room.

The crowd below was also startled by the sudden appearance of the black aura. They had long heard of the ominous reputation of the Twelve Fiends of Zi and Wu, but as the saying goes, "Man dies for wealth, birds die for food." For ten thousand taels of gold and that hundred-times-forged weapon, they still chose to serve the Pig.

Seeing that something was wrong, everyone shouted.

"Lord Pig, what are you doing? We're all here to serve you!"

"Lord Pig, we have done our best, you can't just abandon us after we've served our purpose!"

"My lord, my lord! Please spare us! We don't want the ten thousand taels of gold!"

……

"What's the panic?" The eyes behind the mask revealed a disdainful glint: "I, Old Pig, have never been one to go back on my word. Since I promised you, I won't shortchange you a single coin on the ten thousand taels of gold and that hundred-refined weapon!"

He then changed the subject: "However, I was injured by Yuan Yi of the Jade Emperor Sect and will not recover for a while. Since you are working for me, you should see it through to the end. As for your reward, go to the King of Hell and I will burn it for you!"

Inside the room, screams echoed incessantly. When the black smoke dissipated, only a pile of white bones remained.

"Cough cough cough!" Hai Zhu clutched his chest, coughed a few times, and said angrily, "Damn Yuan Yi, he's so powerful. I can't even use my Dharma Form now, and these guys have only barely recovered some of their energy. But it should be enough to deal with that kid!"

"You brat, I'd like to see how many times your master can save you," the Pig thought to himself, before heading outside.

……

When Hai Zhu arrived at the inn, Lin Fei was enjoying several dishes in front of him.

"You little rascal, you're so leisurely, you even have the leisure to eat here!" Hai Zhu was furious when he saw Lin Fei's leisurely appearance.

The Twelve Killers of Zi and Wu rarely fail in their duties. The only time they failed in all these years, when even the kill order was ineffective, was also because of a Taoist priest from the Jade Emperor Sect.

The person who failed last time has been permanently removed from the list of the Twelve Evils and replaced by a new person. Although he, Hai Zhu, is ranked last among the Twelve Evils, he does not want to be removed from the list.

"I've been waiting for you, haven't I?" Lin Fei took a sip of tea, rinsed his mouth, and stood up with satisfaction. "It seems you're not doing so well! You look much weaker than you did the other day."

"It's all thanks to your good master!" Pig Hai gritted his teeth in hatred, his whole body even trembling. "But it's enough to deal with you, you brat. You still dare to talk so arrogantly and wait for me! Today I will make you wish you were dead!"

"If you want to fight, go outside!" The proprietress yawned as she leaned over the counter. "If you damage my shop, whether it's the Twelve Evil Stars or the Compassionate Salvation, neither of you will leave here standing here today!"

"Alright!" The Pig stared coldly at Lin Fei: "Don't be like last time, just running away. I'm not in the mood to chase you today."

"Don't worry, I won't run away this time. I've been waiting for you today to settle the score with you!" Lin Fei smiled slightly and walked out of the inn. "Let's meet at the usual place! I'll wait for you there."

With that, Lin Fei's figure flashed and he disappeared from the inn.

The pig moved, about to give chase, but was stopped by the proprietress: "Wait a minute!"

"Sister Hong wants to plead for that kid?" Hai Zhu said coldly, "I know you have a past with Yuan Yi, but today I won't give face to anyone. I'm determined to take that kid's life!"

"What business is it of mine if you want his life?" The proprietress glared and pointed at the leftover food Lin Fei had eaten. "That kid said you have to pay. You can only leave here after you pay!"
