Chapter 1907: Zhu Jinwoo’s Inner Thoughts
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Upon hearing this, Zhu Jinwoo also understood what Zhang Yanjun meant!
No wonder he asked if he could defeat him in a one-on-one fight. So that was what he meant!
At the thought of this, Zhu Jinwoo was filled with confidence. He had once won the championship of a provincial-level mixed martial arts competition. Defeating Lin Yi was like a warm-up to him.
At the same time, Zhang Yanjun turned to look at Lin Yi and said with an unfriendly expression,
“Fellow Daoist, I suspect that you’ve been sent by another Daoist temple to cause trouble. I have to say that your goal has been achieved, but what I want to say is that if you think that you can destroy our Xiyun Temple’s Hungry Ghost Festival with these tricks, you’re too naive.”
Lin Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. This old thing’s level of deception was really first-rate. With just a few words, he was now claiming that he was a spy.
“Do you think I’m so free?” Lin Yi said.
“When we were in the dining hall just now, I already revealed my identity. I’m a doctor from Huashan Hospital. Why did you say that I’m a spy?”
“You know very well what is happening.” Zhang Yanjun said.
“As for you, you keep calling us liars. Do you dare to spar against our Daoist martial arts?”
Lin Yi smiled and pointed at Zhu Jinwoo. “Do you want me to fight him? Are you sure you don’t want to send someone stronger?”
“There’s no need for that. He is the most complete practitioner of Daoist kung fu here at Xiyun Temple. He can handle you just fine.”
“Alright, whatever you say,” Lin Yi replied.
Zhu Zhenyu narrowed his eyes, glaring at Lin Yi like a fierce watchdog, sizing him up.
“You’ve ruined our plans. Your time is up!”
With that, the two of them squared off, the fight about to erupt.
Meanwhile, the Daoists of Xiyun Temple were full of confidence.
Zhu Zhenyu was the strongest among them.
They remembered a time when, out of boredom, ten of them had fought him simultaneously and had defeated them all!
Now, dealing with this guy, who they saw as a mere show-off, would be a breeze.
The audience remained unsure.
They were waiting to see how things would unfold.
Zhu Zhenyu, standing in the middle, smirked coldly and beckoned Lin Yi with a finger. “I’ll give you the first move, so you can’t say I bullied you.”
“Don’t worry about that, so you can’t claim I didn’t give you a chance after losing,” Lin Yi replied.
“Besides, you’ve already lost twice, so stop pretending. Show me what you’ve got.”
“Damn it, I’ll break your leg today!” Zhu Zhenyu snapped.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Jinwoo shouted and charged at Lin Yi!
Lin Yi stood where he was without moving. When Zhu Jinwoo rushed over, he kicked him!
Whoosh!
Zhu Jin-woo’s eyes widened as intense pain engulfed his entire body. It was as if his internal organs had shifted positions!
That kind of heart-wrenching pain was not something that ordinary people could endure!
“Ah!”
With a scream, Zhu Jinwoo was sent flying a few meters away before landing heavily on the ground!
Silence!
It was dead silent!
The moment Zhu Jinwoo landed on the ground, everyone fell silent.
It was as if time had been paused!
Zhang Yanjun’s eyes were wide open and his mouth was agape. He was still waiting to watch a good show. He did not expect that what he had been waiting for would actually turn out to be such a show.
Lin Yi rubbed his ears helplessly. “Your Daoist techniques can’t even withstand one of my kicks?”
“Well…”
This time, Zhang Yanjun didn’t know what to say.
Because he didn’t expect Lin Yi to be able to defeat Zhu Jinwoo with a single kick!
“Senior Brother!”
Seeing that the situation was bad, the other Daoists jogged towards Zhu Jinwoo.
“I-I’m fine.”
Zhu Jin-woo held his chest. With the help of others, he barely managed to get up.
“Can you still fight? Let’s continue.” Lin Yi smiled.
Zhu Jin-woo’s expression was ugly, but he didn’t dare to do anything.
Through that attack just now, he had already experienced Lin Yi’s strength.
With his level, he definitely could not defeat him.
If he charged forward again, he would be courting death.
At this moment, the audience was enlightened when they saw that Zhu Jinwoo did not have any reaction.
“Didn’t you say just now that the Daoists pay more attention to actual combat? How did you get kicked away by this brother? Is this what you mean by paying more attention to actual combat?”
“Liar, cut the crap. Hurry up and refund the money. I don’t have time to waste with you!”
“Hurry up. If you don’t return the money, we’ll report you!”
Facing everyone’s condemnation, the glib-tongued Zhang Yanjun did not know what to do.
After being slapped in the face time and time again, even he did not know how to deal with it.
“Everyone, don’t be anxious. I’ll definitely give you an explanation for this.”
The Daoist priests of Xiyun Temple were also depressed.
With such a huge accident, the offerings toward Xiyun Temple would probably be cut off in the future.
“I advise you not to stand here anymore. Go over and help refund the money. I’m afraid your master won’t be able to handle it on his own,” Lin Yi smiled.
Zhu Jinwoo clutched his chest. He wished he could punch Lin Yi right now.
If it wasn’t for him, this wouldn’t have happened!
But he also knew that he couldn’t beat Lin Yi, so he couldn’t be rash.
Suddenly, Zhu Jinwoo rolled his eyes. The anger on his face disappeared and he smiled.
“Brother, your level is indeed high. I admit that I’m not your match. Have you practiced before?”
“Actually, no, you’re overthinking it.”
Lin Yi wasn’t lying. His D-class combat strength, E-class combat technique, and even his excellent physical condition were all given by the system. He hadn’t trained for them.
However, he was a bit puzzled by Zhu Zhenyu’s quick attitude shift. Logically, he should be angry.
Not only did Zhu Zhenyu’s expression change quickly, but his reaction was swift too.
Lin Yi had ruined his plans, making future scams unlikely, so this grudge needed to be settled.
But if he let Lin Yi go now, there would be no chance for revenge since finding him again would be difficult.
Thus, he devised this plan to suppress his anger and try to get Lin Yi’s contact information.
Then he would teach him a lesson later!
“That must be natural talent,” Zhu Zhenyu said with an even friendlier smile.
“I’m a martial arts enthusiast and find you quite interesting. Could we exchange phone numbers for future contact, maybe grab a meal together?”
Zhu Zhenyu’s attitude intrigued Lin Yi.
“Are you sure you want to have a meal with me and not hold a grudge for ruining your plans?”
“We were indeed trying to scam them, there’s nothing to hide,” Zhu Zhenyu admitted.
“But I genuinely think we get along well and would like to be friends. Can we exchange numbers?”
