The King of Assassins’ shoulder blades exploded, and his body immediately fell into the sand.

He let out a snarl that was filled with resentment. His eyes were bloodshot, like an irritable lion.

“Die! Die!” He roared crazily and rushed towards Lin Sen, wanting to fight him to the death!

“I’m going to kill you! I’m going to kill you! ” He shouted crazily, as if he had gone mad.

“I won’t let you die!” Lin Sen shouted coldly. His figure disappeared again.

The next second, he appeared behind the King of Assassins.

“Not good!” The King of Assassins sensed the danger behind him and was about to dodge, but it was too late. A short knife cut through his abdomen!

“Ah!” He screamed.

Lin Sen did not hesitate at all. He slapped out and hit his head!

The King of Assassins’ head instantly exploded, spilling red and white onto the ground.

His body stiffened. He was deader than dead.

Lin Sen panted a few times, his body trembling violently. He had paid an extremely huge price for the King of Assassins’ last struggle.

His body was covered in dense wounds. Blood kept seeping out, dyeing his clothes red.

“This King of Assassins is indeed worthy of being known as a top-notch assassin. He actually has such a tenacious desire to live. Even if he’s on the verge of death, he continues to desperately fight for his life!” Lin Sen muttered.

If not for the super strong defense given to him by the system and the healing effect of the Kabbalah Tree of Life, Lin Sen would have definitely been killed!

He muttered to himself, “This incident is also a huge lesson for me. No matter what, I can’t be careless, even if I have so many trump cards.”

Yang Wanqi came out of Lin Sen’s farm space and said to him, “Thank you, Lin

Sen. Without you, I would have died today.”

Lin Sen waved his hand gently. “You’re welcome. I owe you a favor.”

Yang Wanqi was stunned for a moment before shaking her head. “No matter what, this is what I should do.”

Yang Wanqi looked at Lin Sen and her face turned red again.

Lin Sen looked at her and asked, “Do you know who those people are?” “I know. They were sent by the Black Dragon Gang.”

Lin Sen narrowed his eyes. His guess was right. The Black Dragon Gang had really attacked him.

“Let’s go back. This is over,” Lin Sen said softly. He reached out his hand to grab Yang Wanqi’s.

Yang Wanqi closed her eyes shyly and let Lin Sen hold her hand as they left.

In a villa, a few elders were sitting on the sofa and discussing something.

“According to our observations, Lin Sen’s strength should be at the early-stage of Gold VIII, but his actual combat strength is at the Sanctuary grade.”

“This is indeed very troublesome.”

“But…” One of the old men frowned and said, “With such strength, it’s simply wishful thinking to completely kill us.”

“We just need to protect ourselves,” another old man said. “In this world, the strong prey on the weak.”

“But we have to be fully prepared. If we aren’t careful enough and let this kid affect our plan, things would be really troublesome!” An old man’s expression was somber.

The Black Dragon Gang had suffered heavy losses recently. They had lost two core members and an item.

They would never allow such a thing to happen.

“I’ll arrange this personally,” one of the old men said.

“Mm.” The other elders nodded, clearly tacitly agreeing to this decision. “The plan must be brought forward. We can’t delay any longer!”

The old man’s deep voice sounded.

The elders looked at each other and nodded.

Lin Sen and Yang Wanq searched for food in the cave. Their stomachs were rumbling. Both of them were starving.

They had not had a single drop of water for two days.

“Let’s eat something first.” Lin Sen took out some ingredients prepared by the Loving Beast King from his farm space.

“The things in here are very fresh and taste good, ” Lin Sen said.

Yang Wanqi bit on a biscuit and looked at Lin Sen. Her pretty face was a little red. “I-I’ll help you bake it. It might taste better this way.”

When Lin Sen heard this, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Although he was very willing, Yang Wanqi was a girl after all. He couldn’t agree to let her do these things for him.

“There’s no need to trouble you. I can take care of these. You’re in charge of eating your fill.” Lin Sen shook his head.

“Alright.” Yang Wanqi nodded. For some reason, her heart was pounding non-stop. She stole a glance at Lin Sen and immediately looked away.

Lin Sen did not care about Yang Wanqi’s small actions.

He quickly built a fire and placed the ingredients into the pot.

Soon, the fragrant food emitted an alluring fragrance.

Yang Wanqi’s stomach growled again. She touched the tip of her nose awkwardly, not daring to look at Lin Sen.

Lin Sen picked up a skewer of fish and placed it on Yang Wanqi’s plate. He smiled and said, “Eat.”

She picked up the fish and carefully ate it.

It had to be said that the taste of this fish was very wonderful and appetizing.

“Wow!” Yang Wanqi exclaimed. She looked at Lin Sen and said, “This fish tastes so delicious!”

Lin Sen shrugged and smiled. “Then eat more.”

Yang Wanqi nodded and buried her head in her food.

After the meal, Yang Wanqi sat opposite Lin Sen and enjoyed the rare peace.

The two of them laid on the grass and looked at the starry sky. Meteors streaked across the sky, looking abnormally beautiful.

“Do you think we can walk out of here alive?” Yang Wanqi asked.

“Yes! We definitely will!” Lin Sen said firmly. He hugged Yang Wanqi’s delicate body and said, “From tomorrow onwards, I will bring you to kill monsters!” When Yang Wanqi heard this, she revealed a happy expression.

“Then you have to promise me that you won’t run around recklessly. Stay close to me, understand?”

“Alright, I promise you. As long as you follow me, I won’t run around.”

Yang Wanqi nodded slightly. Unknowingly, she was already filled with reliance on Lin Sen.

In the morning, the sunlight slanted down and shone on the ground.

Yang Wanqi opened her eyes. She had slept soundly last night, and there was a sweet smile on her lips.

“Lin Sen, are you awake?” Yang Wanqi shouted. Then, she opened the tent and walked out.

Lin Sen was standing at the edge of the lake, looking into the distance.

“I brought you breakfast.” Yang Wanqi’s voice sounded.

Lin Sen turned around and saw Yang Wanqi walking over with a bowl of porridge in her hand.

He walked over, took the bowl and took a few sips of the porridge. Then, he sighed. “Mm, it tastes great!”

“I specially bought this milk. Do you want to try it?” Yang Wanqi asked.

“Of course.” Lin Sen nodded and took the milk.

He drank it all in one gulp. Yang Wanqi also started drinking.

“It tastes good,” Lin Sen praised. He raised his head and suddenly noticed the snow-white skin on her neck.

Under the sunlight, Yang Wanqi’s skin seemed to be coated with a layer of pink, making her look exceptionally charming..
