Cosmic Trading System

"Drag him away! Don't let him speak anymore!" Wei Donglai, who was standing at the side, frowned slightly and turned towards two of the Baji Sect disciples, issuing his order.

Honestly speaking, his mood at this moment was not at its best. Partly because of Zhong Nan's situation, partly fearing that the Baji Sect would be targeted by the remnants of Qingyun Company's power, and partly due to the fate of the Qingyun Company.

In fact, the fall of the Qingyun Company was good news for the Baji Sect.

However, seeing Qingyun Company actually brought to this step, especially the martial arts Grandmasters being killed, Lin Yun staggering onto a dead-end road, and an Innate powerhouse couldn't reverse the situation, made his mood all the more complicated.

Grief for the death of a rabbit might be part of it, but they, the Baji Sect, were also a martial arts school. If the government set their sights on the Baji Sect, did they really have the ability to resist?

And then... his brilliant and unparalleled Senior Brother was also killed by the Sky Group, and that Senior Brother had treated him very well.

Now, seeing the equally brilliant and unparalleled Lin Yun about to be annihilated by the Sky Group evoked a similar feeling in him.

Of course, it didn't mean that he didn't want Lin Yun to die, it was just a fleeting feeling, one that quickly swept through Wei Donglai's heart.

"Yes, Elder!"

The two Baji Sect disciples obeyed the order and immediately escorted Zhong Nan away. One of them even covered Zhong Nan's mouth to prevent him from speaking.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"So what if he's Lin Yun from Qingyun Company, isn't he still going to die?"

"It's a good thing he's dying, otherwise, our Seven Injuries Sect would be in trouble..."

"Hehe, I've always said, arrogant people never meet a good end. Let him be arrogant, now he's about to die..."

Among the crowd, some people were pleased at seeing Lin Yun's dire straits.

These people, if not harboring animosity towards Lin Yun, simply couldn't stand to see others do well.

"Roar--"

On the other side, seeing Lin Yun heading up the mountain, with Lin Tian keeping Taiyi busy and unable to approach, he once again used the Lion's Roar technique on Lin Yun.

However, this time, Lin Tian was prepared and launched a sound wave attack similar to the Lion's Roar. However, since his martial arts didn't include this technique, the attack's power to cause harm was not strong.

Especially considering his opponent was the Innate-level Taiyi, and that the two Sky Group members were not low in power.

Therefore, this sound wave attack was aimed at the Lion's Roar Taiyi had released towards Lin Yun. The main purpose was to interfere with the power of the Lion's Roar.

The speed of the sound wave was very fast, and Lin Yun was quickly affected by the Lion's Roar.

Fortunately, the Lion's Roar had been considerably weakened by the sound wave attack launched by Lin Tian, so Lin Yun didn't suffer as severe injuries as before. Lin Yun's body swayed slightly, and his mouth and nose continued to bleed, but he kept staggering towards the top of the mountain.

However, his appearance became even more pitiful.

In fact, just now, Lin Yun had already purchased a device to defend against sound wave attacks. Although it was still difficult to complete resist a sound wave attack containing genuine Qi, it was certainly possible to reduce some of the damage.

But to deceive Taiyi, Lin Yun hadn't used it yet.

Now, it was clear that Lin Tian alone couldn't stop Taiyi.

So, the fewer trump cards he revealed now, the better chance he would have of surviving later.

"Hm?"

Seeing this, Taiyi frowned slightly.

Although it seemed like there was no way out in front of Lin Yun, he always had the feeling that some unexpected change would happen as soon as Lin Yun reached that cliff.

Whoosh--whoosh--

The next moment, he didn't hesitate anymore and waved his hand, releasing five hidden weapons again.

He planned to incapacitate Lin Yun in the same manner as he did with the robot that had the initial stage of Dark Strength, using these hidden weapons to sever Lin Yun's legs.

After all, all he needed was Lin Yun alive to learn about the source of those extraterrestrial technologies. He wasn't necessarily interested in keeping Lin Yun wholly intact.

As for whether Lin Yun would cooperate after being injured and reveal the sources of the extraterrestrial technologies, he really wasn't worried. They had many ways to make Lin Yun talk.

For a martial artist at the initial stage of Dark Strength, Taiyi really didn't take their power seriously.

Weakness provided them with many opportunities.

"Clang--clang--"

Similarly, Lin Tian did his best to defend, but he could only block two of the hidden weapons.

"Heh, so this is all the strength you have!"

Taiyi sneered coldly.

He had identified long ago that Lin Tian was vulnerable in the realm of hidden weapons.

However, the robustness of this Innate-level robot's body was significant, making it difficult for him to defeat it instantly.

He was torn between "killing" this Innate-level robot or capturing it alive. If a robot of this mould could be utilized by their organization, it would undoubtedly be a significant asset.

Moreover, if they managed to study it, that would be even more beneficial.

However, capturing a robot of this calibre alive was an extremely daunting task.

Meanwhile, he contemplated whether he could strike from Lin Yun's end. Because there was a good chance that Lin Yun was the master of this robot, a theory that could only be validated once they captured Lin Yun.

Because of this, Taiyi wasn't hasty to engage in a do-or-die battle with Lin Tian.

'Clang- Clang-'

Just like what happened before, when Taiyi using hidden weapons attacked Lin Yi and the other three, the protective shield released by Lin Yun, though stronger, still failed to block the three hidden projectiles. They pierced through it instantly. However, when the three concealed projectiles hit Lin Yun, they emitted a sharp metallic sound.

'Thud-'

The immense impact force sent Lin Yun's body flying through the air.

Simultaneously, the overpowering internal force entered Lin Yun's body, which felt as though it was twisting his insides. His organs were injured, and while in mid-air, Lin Yun started spewing mouthfuls of fresh blood. His face turned pale rapidly.

Then, the three hidden projectiles fell to the ground.

The formidable internal force caused Lin Yun's clothes to rupture, revealing his metallic suit underneath.

Indeed, a metallic suit. Lin Yun had anticipated such an attack and had prepared this protective gear. Especially for today, as he had a bad feeling, he wore it.

Now, it was the perfect time to have this metallic suit on.

That energy shield, it was tough to resist the hidden projectiles infused with significant internal force...

But these ultra-strong metals, those three projectiles would find it hard to penetrate through them.

However, still weren't completely deflected by the metal suit, but luckily the internal force was counteracted to some extent by the metallic suit. Also, since Taiyi didn't intend to kill Lin Yun, he didn't exert excessive force. The remaining force that entered Lin Yun's body just added to his injuries.

Lin Yun painstakingly picked himself up from the ground and continued his staggering journey toward the edge of the cliff.

His step was even more faltering now, making him look all the more pitiful.

"He's still alive?"

Seeing this, Taiyi frowned again.

He glanced at the two Sky Group members. Thankfully, they were already quite close to Lin Yun.

Because of his most recent attack, Lin Tian went berserk and attacked him relentlessly, disregarding his own life. This put a lot of pressure on Taiyi, and he couldn't find an opportunity to unleash a hidden weapon attack on Lin Yun any time soon.

So, let these two Sky Group members attack Lin Yun! Taiyi thought to himself.

These Sky Group members were still one at mid-stage Huajin and another at post-stage Huajin. Both of them together should have been able to handle a severely injured person like Lin Yun, right?

However, just to be safe, he still alerted these two Sky Group members, saying, "Be careful, Lin Yun might be equipped with other high-tech weapons!"

"Yes, Supreme Elder!"

The two members of the Sky Group, while rushing to Lin Yun, responded.

Although they agreed verbally, after spotting the severity of Lin Yun's injuries, they couldn't help but underestimate him.

And considering that Lin Yun's external garment had already shattered and all he had on was a tight-fitting metallic suit, it was crystal clear what Lin Yun had on him. There was virtually no place left for him to hide anything.

Oh… Right, Lin Yun had a sword in his hand, which seemed to be a prize from this rookie contest?

Could this sword be some high-tech weapon?

The two Sky Group members smirked inwardly.
