Standing firm on the ground, Yan Luo suddenly turned around and grabbed a fence in the backyard with one hand.
The fence was torn apart by Yan Luo with an ear-piercing metallic screech.
Yan Luo pulled out an iron rod and fiercely threw it at Wang Zhengxian.
The iron rod broke the sound barrier instantly. If Wang Zhengxian didn't have a computing chip assisting him, he would have likely been pierced by that iron rod.
The suddenly deployed barrier deflected the iron rod, and Wang Zhengxian hurriedly used protective magic on himself, creating several defensive shields around him.
Yan Luo's speed was overwhelming, compressing his actions into one second, rendering Wang Zhengxian incapable of reacting.
Fast enough, strong enough, even if he couldn't fly, he was Wang Zhengxian's nemesis.
No way! His speed must be restricted!
With that thought, Wang Zhengxian cast a spell, causing the soil beneath Yan Luo's feet to churn up, covering his feet and wrapping around his ankles.
The soil originally intended to rise further, pulling Yan Luo's calves underground completely, but Yan Luo's reactions were astonishingly quick.
As the soil climbed onto his feet, Yan Luo already began to exert force. When the soil wrapped around his ankles, his figure surged forward, instantly breaking free from the soil's constraints.
Seeing this, Wang Zhengxian realized he made a mistake; using such a delicate spell against Yan Luo was ill-advised.
If Yan Luo was powerful, then he needed to exert even more strength—
"Rise!"
The entire backyard trembled, and centered around Yan Luo's figure, two slabs of earth rose from the ground like a closing book, swiftly clapping towards Yan Luo.
At this point, Wang Zhengxian cast a petrification spell, hardening the soil immensely.
—Boom!
Two massive stone slabs mixed with countless garden shrubs closed in abruptly, enclosing Yan Luo within.
This is the true power of Sequence Three Engraver, comparable to a City-breaking Level Demon!
Gazing upon his masterpiece and feeling the terrified eyes from all directions, Wang Zhengxian couldn't help but laugh heartily.
Alongside his joy, he couldn't help but worry if the engravings Yan Luo carried might have been destroyed by this strike.
Just then, the stone slabs exploded.
Amidst the billowing dust, a hulking figure quickly emerged.
Yan Luo jumped out of the dust, sprinting up the vertically standing stone slab, at the peak he flipped back, spinning mid-air, unleashing a powerful whiplash kick.
The strong and forceful whiplash leg struck Wang Zhengxian, or rather the shield covering his body.
Those shields shattered instantly, and the immense force Yan Luo unleashed descended upon Wang Zhengxian.
Although the exoskeleton absorbed a lot of the impact for Wang Zhengxian, he was still battered until he spat out blood inside his helmet.
Immediately, Wang Zhengxian's body plummeted towards the ground like a meteor.
The computing chip, assessing Wang Zhengxian incapable of reacting in time, took over the exoskeleton's power system, adjusting the thruster nozzle direction, increasing output power, trying to slow Wang Zhengxian's descent.
"Ah!"
With both thrust and counter-thrust acting on him simultaneously, Wang Zhengxian couldn't help but scream, feeling his muscles and joints being torn apart.
Wang Zhengxian's body barely hovered five centimeters above the ground, he endured the pain to use the exoskeleton's camera to observe Yan Luo, only to see Yan Luo's figure plunging down.
He immediately manipulated the thrusters to shift direction, moving himself away from the spot.
Boom!
Yan Luo crashed onto the ground, missing Wang Zhengxian's body.
But he didn't care, pulling out an iron rod embedded in his muscle, he threw it at Wang Zhengxian.
The computing chip wrested exoskeleton control away from Wang Zhengxian's hands, forcefully redirecting the thruster, nearly snapping Wang Zhengxian's spine.
Wang Zhengxian's eyes bulged, nearly suffocated.
"Revoke permissions!"
Wang Zhengxian hurriedly revoked the computing chip's control over the exoskeleton; if this continued, he'd die not by Yan Luo but by the computing chip.
And just after he revoked the computing chip's control over the exoskeleton, one thruster in the exoskeleton stalled due to overload.
Wang Zhengxian's body, now in mid-air, skewed around erratically, flailing wildly.
Right then, Yan Luo soared upwards, delivering an all-out Rising Dragon Fist to Wang Zhengxian's body.
"Puh!!"
Spit and blood sprayed out together, Wang Zhengxian's body flew backward but was quickly seized by Yan Luo's quick hands by the ankles.
Wang Zhengxian was caught by Yan Luo and fell towards the ground, then Yan Luo began swinging his body back and forth like a toy.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Even with thrusters' propulsion, Wang Zhengxian was firmly held by Yan Luo, his body repeatedly slamming into the ground.
Under such brute force, Wang Zhengxian's exoskeleton system consistently issued error alerts, while the thrusters rapidly sustained damage.
After swinging Wang Zhengxian like a toy for three minutes, Yan Luo finally stopped, panting heavily, looking at the exoskeleton he gripped.
A few seconds later, Yan Luo lifted Wang Zhengxian up, brutally tore off his mask, discovering Wang Zhengxian's eyes had turned white, only breathing out, unable to breathe in.
At this moment, Yan Luo felt some regret.
He should have spared some effort, kept this guy alive to interrogate him about his superiors, and then finish him off.
But now, it was too late.
Dragging Wang Zhengxian, who was barely hanging on, Yan Luo headed towards the villa. Li Xinyue stood at the villa's back door, watching Yan Luo, bloodied all over, approach, letting out a breath of relief.
Though Yan Luo now looks miserable, in reality, his wounds were nearly healed.
Several ribs were embedded in his internal organs, not pulled out yet, but not causing much trouble; once pulled out, the wound would heal by itself.
Yan Luo's regenerative ability was now truly monstrous, ordinary firearms might harm him, but killing him would entail attacking his weak spots, like his brain or heart.
Essentially, a one-shot kill was nearly impossible. If you failed to kill him in one hit, he'd recover quickly.
Since his debut, this was the second time he suffered such severe injuries, the last time fighting a deadly silent hunting lizard, and back then, he was still an ordinary person.
Bang!
Yan Luo tossed Wang Zhengxian to the ground, removed the nearly completely shattered helmet, and looked at Li Xinyue, "What should we do next?"
He hadn't forgotten why they came here.
Li Xinyue glanced at the firmly closed stone slab and sighed.
Whether or not she had killed Li Siyuan just now, they were truly dead now.
Even Yan Luo was severely injured, not to mention Li Siyuan and the others.
Li Siyuan's corpse was probably already squashed into pulp by the stone slab.
"Let's go, I want to reclaim my belongings."
The stone slab would be dealt with later; for now, it can remain there.
As Li Xinyue led Yan Luo towards Li Shen Yi's room, the household staff sensed the battle had ended, emerging to see the two bloodied figures. They were shocked.
Li Xinyue saw them and smiled slightly, "Rest assured, it's all over now."
Upon saying this, Li Xinyue's emotions were deeply conflicted.
Everything had ended, including the Celestial Sea Li Family...
Although she still had some relatives like Li Sixian, when her grandfather died, the Celestial Sea Li Family disintegrated.
Short-sightedness, greed, and resentment—Grandfather's assessment of Li Siyuan and their judgment wasn't wrong, they indeed were incapable.
Momentarily dazed, Li Xinyue took a deep breath and continued forward.
Li Xinyue and Yan Luo arrived at the third-floor master bedroom. Li Xinyue used her fingerprint to unlock the door and entered.
The room had few items, maintaining the state when Li Shen Yi still lived here.
A bed, a bedside table, a wardrobe, a pair of desks and chairs, and a safe, nothing else.
Its owner was no longer here...
Yan Luo stood at the door, not entering with Li Xinyue.
Li Xinyue walked directly to the safe, crouched down, and opened it according to the secret instructions in the will.
The safe held few items, only several paper documents proving Li Xinyue's inheritance rights to Bao Han Company.
Li Xinyue looked at the paper documents and took them out with her blood-soaked hands.
Her gaze was odd, and she couldn't help but laugh twice: "Li Family… Hey, Li Family…"
