Evan Lynn had barely finished speaking.
Everyone around him froze for a moment upon hearing his words.
No one expected Evan Lynn to say something like this at such a moment.
Borrow the Golden Core?
Golden Core...
Is that even something you can borrow?
"Stop dreaming. This Golden Core has been refined by me for years—it's already fused with my body, one and the same."
"It's not something you can even touch!"
The Patriarch of House Upper Lynn's face instantly darkened at Evan's words.
He looked at Evan Lynn with a gaze that grew even colder.
The Golden Core.
For House Upper Lynn, it was an absolute treasure.
It meant power!
"I'm just letting you know. I wasn't asking for your permission."
Evan Lynn shook his head, then stepped forward.
The next second—
Everyone suddenly realized that Evan Lynn was already standing right in front of the Patriarch of House Upper Lynn!
"That speed is insane!"
"How can he move so fast?"
"He just fought, and now Master Lynn from Seacrest doesn't have a scratch on him?"
Everyone who saw this scene instantly cried out in shock.
The recent duel had been fierce—everyone still remembered it vividly.
But right now, Master Lynn from Seacrest showed no sign of injury at all!
"You—!"
The Patriarch of House Upper Lynn's face twisted wildly.
Evan Lynn's step looked simple, but it actually contained the marvel of shrinking the earth into inches—so much so that even the Patriarch couldn't react in time.
He saw Evan Lynn approaching and instinctively flicked his sleeve, sending out countless streaks of golden light in defense, retreating rapidly.
But Evan didn't dodge or flinch. He reached out with one hand, straight ahead.
His hand pierced through layer after layer of golden light and grabbed the Patriarch of House Upper Lynn by the collar, lifting him clean off the ground.
Then, before the Patriarch could even react—
Evan Lynn's other hand formed a palm, aiming at the Patriarch's dantian, and gently struck.
It was a light, floating palm strike.
The palm descended.
Thud...
Everyone—
The sound entered their ears.
It was like the ringing of a golden bell.
A wave of booming sounds erupted, and the Patriarch's face instantly turned pale.
"Patriarch!"
"Let go of the Patriarch!"
The group of people from House Upper Lynn nearby turned pale at the sight.
They didn’t know what was happening, but seeing the Patriarch’s pale face and his total inability to resist, each of them immediately charged toward Evan Lynn.
However—
Thud...
Another burst of golden bell ringing echoed.
Evan Lynn struck with a second palm, and this time the sound was even stronger than before.
Waves of sound rippled out.
The group rushing toward Evan was directly blasted away by the shockwave.
Evan Lynn calmly gazed ahead.
The Patriarch of House Upper Lynn felt spiritual qi surging throughout his body, but somehow he couldn't use any of it!
It was as if everything had been completely bound.
He couldn't move at all; his dantian felt like a furnace, growing hotter and hotter!
What are you trying to do!
The Patriarch's face was ashen, and he felt like he might explode at any moment.
I'm borrowing your Golden Core.
Evan Lynn shook his head and struck with another palm.
The third palm landed.
Golden light surged like ocean waves, scattering in all directions.
Golden light rippled everywhere.
Then—
Everyone heard the Patriarch of House Upper Lynn let out a muffled groan.
He was instantly sent flying backwards.
From his mouth, a golden core shining with golden light flew toward Evan Lynn.
Evan Lynn hooked it with a single finger.
The golden core instantly turned into a golden beam and merged into his body.
The golden core entered his body.
Evan Lynn felt spiritual qi begin to condense inside him.
In his dantian, all the spiritual qi that couldn’t condense into a golden core surged toward that battered, ancient-looking core.
Spiritual qi surged and roiled.
Radiance burst forth all around Evan Lynn.
He closed his eyes slightly, letting the spiritual qi rush through his body.
A long-lost sense of power surged through his limbs and bones.
It was like a raging tide crashing against every inch of his body!
He snatched the Patriarch's golden core!
How is that possible!
How did he do it? Can you really steal a golden core?
Everyone watching the screen erupted in shock, completely stunned by what they saw!
Suzaku, Xuanwu, White Tiger, and the others all turned pale as well.
Yue Ye stood there in a daze.
Jiang He, Qin Qifan, and the rest of the Divine Moon group were frozen with shock, faces full of disbelief.
The Patriarch of House Upper Lynn said Master Lynn from Seacrest had never reached the Golden Core stage, so he could never be his match?
But what if the Golden Core was stolen?
The situation instantly reversed.
The Patriarch, robbed of his Golden Core, was thrown more than ten meters away.
His face was ashen. He looked up at Master Lynn, who was wrapped in golden light and spiritual qi, and his expression completely changed!
Now, the Golden Core is in my hands.
Evan Lynn slowly opened his eyes, his cold, youthful voice echoing in everyone’s ears.
Standing there, Evan Lynn seemed like a deity descending to earth!
You... How dare you!
The Patriarch's face was extremely ugly.
The other members of House Upper Lynn were even more terrified.
This had never happened before.
It was something that should have been impossible!
Golden Core...
How could the Golden Core possibly be stolen!
Ordinary people could never steal a Golden Core.
Evan Lynn looked around at the terrified faces and said calmly, "But I'm not ordinary."
Now, does anyone from House Upper Lynn want to fight?
Evan Lynn’s voice rang out.
It echoed in everyone’s ears.
His voice was cold, carrying a powerful sense of authority.
No one spoke.
None of the people from House Upper Lynn said a word.
It was meaningless now.
Nothing anyone said mattered anymore!
With the Golden Core stolen, they had lost their greatest advantage!
Even when the Patriarch had his Golden Core, he couldn’t do anything to Master Lynn from Seacrest.
Now, the Golden Core was gone.
How could they possibly fight now?
Do you really want a fight to the death with House Upper Lynn?
The Patriarch’s voice trembled with urgency, and he coughed up blood.
His rage attacked his heart!
House Upper Lynn is nothing special.
Evan Lynn shook his head: "But today, the grudge between me and House Upper Lynn will be put on hold for now."
Evan Lynn’s voice echoed across heaven and earth.
Like a morning bell or evening drum, it struck everyone’s heart.
The next moment—
Everyone saw Master Lynn from Seacrest suddenly turn his head.
His gaze pierced through the fallen crowd and the dusty ruins, landing on Li Hanbin, who stood beside Jiang He and Qin Qifan.
If I remember correctly—
You—your name is Everlost.
Immortal Lord Everlost, since you’ve waited here for so long, why not come out and fight now?
