But right as that guy finished talking, the whole atmosphere in Twin Dragons Gang flipped. This place wasn’t some random dump—in the Earth Immortal world, it actually had a bit of a name. Inside and out, they’d set up powerful defensive arrays, and at critical moments they’d all fire up at once. Now, every last defense was triggered, making the whole scene look pretty legit. The gang members weren’t just ordinary punks either; everyone here had serious skills. In a flash, they all pooled their power, and for a second, Twin Dragons Gang looked like it was at its absolute peak!
But before anyone could even blink—BOOM!—a deafening explosion ripped through the place, and all those fancy defenses were blasted to dust in a heartbeat. Everything they’d built up, gone in a puff of smoke, nothing left but shock and awe!
“Wh-what the hell just happened?!” That same guy screamed again, his voice shaking with disbelief. The whole thing was just too much to process!
But before his words even faded, a figure popped up in front of him—like a banshee straight out of a nightmare. It was none other than Lynn Long. She’d ditched every trace of her usual sweetness and beauty, looking full-on terrifying now. The scene was enough to break anyone’s brain.
Honestly, just catching a glimpse of her right now was enough to make your guts turn to water.
“Wh-who are you?!” The guy shrieked again, face pale as a ghost and so scared he was about to lose it.
“I’m your granny!” Lynn Long grinned, and in a flash, a deathly pale claw shot out at him. The dude was so scared he pissed himself, shaking like a leaf and looking ready to pass out at any second.
But Lynn wasn’t about to give him a chance. She whipped out a kick—BANG!—and the guy exploded on the spot, his whole body smashed to powder. He was instantly reduced to dust. The whole crowd looked like they’d just watched a demon crawl out of the ground.
This guy wasn’t some nobody either—he was a top-tier Immortal King. But against her, he couldn’t even last a single move. It was like he just blinked out of existence.
“You—you’re a ghost!” a bunch of panicked voices cried out. Some sounded hoarse, some were already scrambling to run. They all knew sticking around meant certain death. Even if they combined all their power, there was no way they could take on this freak!
But just as they tried to make a break for it, something even scarier happened—the whole atmosphere flipped upside down. Inside and out, a mysterious, crushing force sealed everything off. The place was now a giant cage, and there was no way out!
“No way—how is this possible?!” Several people totally lost it, unable to believe what was happening. Sure, there were plenty of gangs like Twin Dragons in Earth City, but this one had centuries of history. Maybe their people were a little weak, but the turf itself was built tough—no way should it be locked down so easily. The worst part? The other side hadn’t even really made a move yet, and they’d already got everyone in the bag!
And to make it worse, they didn’t even have a shot at escaping!
“Ryan, you really don’t mess around!” Lynn Long threw out a compliment, clearly knowing better than anyone how scary Ryan Ling’s power was. Even though this attack looked wild, for Ryan it was just a tiny bit of his strength—he hadn’t even started showing what he could really do!
“Spare us! Please, let us go!” The Twin Dragons Gang members didn’t dare move a muscle. Even their strongest were bowing and kneeling, knowing full well they were no match for the Male-Female Fiend Duo tonight!
“You’re the boss, right?” Lynn Long gave a sly smile and looked at a fat guy kneeling on the ground. The dude was already pale as a sheet, soaked in cold sweat from head to toe.
“Y-yeah, that’s me! Whatever you want, just say the word!” The fat guy immediately kowtowed to Lynn, shaking all over.
“Am I pretty?” Lynn Long flashed a smile and asked sweetly.
“Wh-what did you say?” The fat guy was so freaked out he’d basically wet himself and didn’t even catch what Lynn Long was asking.
Lynn Long snorted and repeated, “I said, am I pretty?”
“Pretty!” The fat guy was totally out of it, trembling all over.
“Do you like me?” Lynn Long pressed on, playful as ever.
“I like you!” the fat guy blurted out without thinking.
“Like your sister!” Lynn didn’t hesitate—she suddenly unleashed a burst of crazy power. In a flash, she gouged out one of the poor guy’s eyes. The scene was so brutal it made everyone’s hair stand on end!
Seeing Lynn Long go so savage, everyone else dropped to the ground, scared out of their minds.
Ryan Ling just smiled—he couldn’t believe how fierce Lynn Long was when she went wild. And the fiercer she got, the perkier she looked, making Ryan feel a little hot under the collar. Clearly, Lynn was getting more and more irresistible!
Finally, Lynn Long got down to business: “Spill it! Who’s backing you? Who sent you here? If you don’t talk, I’ll take your other eye!”
Most times, killing someone outright isn’t the scariest thing—it’s the slow, painful torture that really gets to you.
The moment Lynn Long finished, the guy spilled everything: “I’ll talk, I’ll talk! It’s the Lee Family—the Lee Family from Earth City! They told us to mess with the Elysium branch here. It was all their idea!”
(End-of-chapter system message omitted—irrelevant to narrative.)
“Lee Family?” Ryan Ling had zero clue who these guys were, but Lynn Long caught on right away. “Earth City’s Lee Family—the one that’s one of Heaven-Earth Sect’s four Guardian Houses?” she blurted.
“Yeah, that’s them!” the fat guy shouted, desperate to confirm.
“Figures it’s Heaven-Earth Sect. Looks like they’ve been planning this forever—bunch of bastards!” Lynn’s eyes went cold. Ryan Ling got it too: only Heaven-Earth Sect would go this hard against them. Chances were, Elysium’s old Ancestor and a bunch of elders and Protectors had already been flipped. To Heaven-Earth Sect, Elysium was just a tiny fish—they could play however they wanted.
“Looks like the upcoming Immortal Realm Grand Tournament is gonna be a war with Heaven-Earth Sect!” Ryan Ling thought, fully aware they were his biggest enemy in the Immortal World—at least for now.
Even though he now controlled Elysium, Immortal City, War City, and other major strongholds, Heaven-Earth Sect was still the biggest obstacle. Their power was off the charts—tons of top experts, not just Immortal Kings but even Heaven-Earth Eternal masters, probably a bunch of them, maybe even Immortal Lords. Facing a force like that, Ryan knew he was strong, but shaking Heaven-Earth Sect for real was still out of reach.
Right now, his best move was to get stronger fast—and make a splash. If everyone in Earth City knew Elysium’s tournament team had arrived and was crazy strong, Heaven-Earth Sect wouldn’t dare take them out before the contest. Assassination is straight-up banned by tournament rules, and Heaven-Earth Sect wouldn’t risk slapping their own face.
As long as they made enough noise, they’d be safe till the tournament started. And with some time left before the big event, Ryan planned to do whatever it took to break into the Heaven-Earth Eternal realm. At that level, even Heaven-Earth Sect would struggle to kill him—and at the very least, he’d have a shot at escaping.
“So, what’s the plan now?” Lynn Long asked, totally aware this was gonna be a tough fight. She knew what Ryan was thinking: since things were already wild and they’d found out Heaven-Earth Sect was behind it, there was no point holding back. Might as well go all out!
Honestly, this counterattack was forced on them—they totally had the right to fight back!
“Let’s go—hit the Lee Family!” Ryan Ling snorted. No hesitation at all. Things were already blown up tonight, so why not take it all the way? Lynn Long nodded instantly—she was all in.
Clearly, Lynn Long hadn’t had her fill of killing tonight!
“Spare us, please! Can we go now?” Twin Dragons Gang members begged, scared out of their wits.
“Spare you? Tonight your auntie’s gonna kill to her heart’s content!” Lynn Long didn’t hesitate—she shouted, unleashing a wave of peak Immortal King power. BOOM! Every kneeling Twin Dragons member exploded, not even a chance to groan. They were wiped out in an instant!
“Lynn, I never thought you could be this ruthless!” Ryan Ling watched her, totally entranced. He suddenly realized Lynn was drop-dead gorgeous—actually, she was insanely seductive, and it made his heart race!
Right after he said that, Ryan couldn’t help himself—his hand reached out, and Lynn Long let out a soft moan that almost made him dizzy.
“Thinking about it again?” Lynn Long asked shyly, looking at Ryan.
“Kind of,” Ryan Ling grinned, eyes sparkling with excitement.
“Hold on, I’m not done killing yet!” Lynn Long said quickly. Her voice was soft but it hit like a shockwave. Ryan swallowed hard, almost afraid to look at her—she was seriously on another level tonight!
“Alright, let’s go kill some more!” Ryan Ling chuckled, grabbing Lynn Long and heading out. They’d already slaughtered plenty, but Twin Dragons Gang was small fry in Earth City—no one really cared about their fate. But the Lee Family? That was a whole different story. If they kicked up trouble there, the whole city would pay attention to these two monsters!
Of course, Ryan and Lynn both knew their real goal wasn’t just killing. They wanted everyone to see Elysium was a force to be reckoned with—or more accurately, they wanted to slap Heaven-Earth Sect right in the face!
While they were talking, Ryan and Lynn had already reached the edge of the Lee Family estate. The place clearly had status in Earth City—the buildings were seriously impressive, and even though it was late, the whole compound was blazing with lights.
“Saintess, after you! Show off your skills and let all those Heaven-Earth Sect folks in Earth City know what you’re made of!” Ryan Ling grinned at Lynn Long.
“Alright, I’ll go first!” Lynn Long didn’t hesitate—she was fired up tonight. She let out a wild roar, and suddenly it was like a tornado hit. The giant gates shattered, and the walls all around crumbled in an instant!
“Nice! Awesome!” Ryan Ling clapped, and Lynn Long immediately giggled.
“Stop teasing me, geez!” Lynn Long protested, blushing.
Clearly, in front of Ryan Ling, Lynn Long was still just a cute girl—totally adorable!
Right now, the whole Lee Family was freaking out. They never expected their clan to get hit so hard. Chaos broke out inside—people were shouting, running out, and top experts were gathering at the perimeter. Even though it was the middle of the night, the commotion had drawn a crowd!
It was like a bomb had gone off in a quiet street. But even with all that, the two troublemakers just stood in the blast zone, joking around, totally ignoring the mob closing in!
The Lee Family couldn’t believe it. A lot of them were gritting their teeth but didn’t dare charge in—anyone with half a brain could see these two were monsters, their power off the charts. Just the aura they gave off was enough to warn everyone: these uninvited guests were not to be messed with!
Ryan Ling and Lynn Long weren’t holding back anymore—they were letting their power run wild!
But right at that moment, an old voice rang out from inside the Lee Family estate.
“You two little bastards, who the hell are you?”
This guy was clearly the Lee Family’s boss. His arrival instantly boosted everyone’s morale—especially the Lee Family. Suddenly, everyone was fired up, closing in on Ryan Ling and Lynn Long.
“I’m your grandpa!” Ryan Ling shot back.
“I’m your granny!” Lynn Long chimed in.
(Ellipsis for dramatic effect—skipped translation.)
Ryan and Lynn didn’t hold back—they shouted their comebacks loud and clear. The whole Lee Family went nuts. They’d just been publicly humiliated—this was a full-on slap in the face!
“Those two bastards are outrageous! Totally shameless!”
“I’m gonna skin them alive!” one of the Lee Family members roared.
“Patriarch, our Lee Family is respected in Earth City—how can we let these two punks walk all over us? This is an outrage!”
