Absolute Strength

Not just the old man, everyone was surprised by seeing the stupidity of the skinny young man who interrupt the intense lightwave. Because of the strength of the light even Harry was heavily injured by getting hit in his peak form.

But the surprise here was the thin figure took the hit for Harry, Lin Cian was completely alright.

Not only he was alright, but he also absorbed the golden ray of the intense light wave. Lin Cian controlled the golden energy he was attacked by and stopped it from touching him and sending him flying.

The old man got his eyelids worn out in an instant but he don't want to continue seeing the unpleasant moment. He gathered all his strength and prepared for the third wave of attack. But the skinny young man was very adamant and did not move from the place. To tell it properly there is no fear in the skinny man's eyes.

All he did was raise his left hand vertically straight where his hand was the same height as his head while his hand was open. While his eyes were fixed on the men who accompanied the old man, he smirked and closed his hands. The men were confused by his actions but the old man was too busy to concentrate on his strength gathering for his third wave.

When Lin Cian closed his hand the old man launched his third wave of attack. He didn't notice anything around him.

When the light ray neared Lin Cian he just extended his right hand to the lightwave. The old man was stunned to see the reaction of the lad in front of him.

"You bastard..." William shouted not to the old man but at Lin Cian because he was scared of the outcome of the fight. But to everyone's surprise, Lin Cian was still unharmed but everyone was forced to drop their jaws at the moment.

Lin Cian harnessed the golden light and to everyone's surprise, he was holding the same golden ball that the old man was holding a moment ago. Everyone was awed at the scene including the old man because he was aware of the power exerted by the golden beam but now the whole beam of light turned into a ball in front of Lin Cian's hand.

The golden ball in front of Lin Cian's hand started to spread in the four directions. After a few moments, the single ball split itself into eight small balls and it stood like a soul ring encircling the orbit around his open hand.

The widened eyes of the old man emitted an aura of fear and his mouth started to stammer alas it was no use to him because Lin Cian already launched the attack on him. Before even he turned to grab someone and throw towards the attack the golden balls surrounded him and started to encircle him.

Each of the eight balls was rotating on its axis but the speed was enough to scare the old man. "He who made an evil deed shall be punished by his own deed" hearing the cold and dominating voice the old man fell onto his knees. He understood what the little brat in front of him was trying to say but he was afraid to respond. But he had no idea why he was unable to move.

Seeing him unable to move Lin Cian relaxed himself a little bit and closed his eyes. At this moment all the eight balls attacked the old man in different parts of his body. Lin Cian precisely hit eight important vital points of the old man with the eight balls and the balls disappeared once they touched the old man.

At the next moment, the old man started to make a vet noise as if he was unable to speak or breathe. He clenched his chest in pain because the eight light balls cracked open the vital points that were hit by them.

The energy emitted as if it was golden strands from those areas that were hit and moved toward Lin Cian. The old man understood what was happening so he shook his hands to signal his men to help him but to his surprise and his disappointment, no one come to his aid. Even his daughter was taking deep breaths as if she wished for this to happen.

The eight strands of energy combined on Lin Cian's opened right hand but still, it absorbed every bit of energy and was greedy enough not to stop for the time being. The young maiden who was taking deep breaths was looking at her father as if she was not a filial daughter but there was no regret in her eyes. There was pity in the eyes of Darius upon the old man but the eyes of others were filled with surprise and joy.

Once the golden threads from the body of the old man were completely taken away by Lin Cian he let the old man go because he was of no use or threat to him or the others. The nullification field spell that was used to lock the energy of the members of the ghost party was lifted off.

The old man was panting heavily as if he finished his marathon for five hundred kilometers. But when he saw that the members of the ghost party were recovering he commanded his men but was speechless for not getting a response from them.

The old man immediately remembered that no one aided him when he asked for them before so he turned and look behind but was dumbfounded at that second because all his men were lying dead on the ground.

He was stupefied and had no points to think or words to speak but it was clear that he was defeated. The old man looked at Lin Cian "Who are you?" a struggling tone questioned Lin Cian.

"The haunting ghost" June shouted at him. As she was staying by Harry's side and yet to take care of him by treating his injuries.

Seeing everything ended in vain the old man gritted his teeth but a cold sensation invaded his throat. It was very deep and the cold sensation was very new to him. When he wanted to express it his words were wet and gone. Once he saw the young maiden in front of him holding a dagger drenched in blood made him understand what happened a moment ago.

But Lin Cian was not there standing and watching the love between the father and his daughter instead he walked into the house where the young man in a coma was resting. When the young maiden realized that Lin Cian was entering the house of the young man she rushed in front of Lin Cian and stopped him.

"What are you doing?"

"Returning it."

"Returning what?"

"The core"

The young maiden's eyes widened upon realizing Lin Cian's words who was holding the golden core in his right hand. Unconsciously she took a step back and cupped her hands to him "Thank you for your kindness. Thank you..." she had no words to speak but she didn't forget but she raised her head and gestured with her hands for him to get in.

Lin Cian got in and saw the young man in a coma and walked towards him. The young maiden crossed her fingers and clenched her hands together under her chin as if she was praying.

Lin Cian didn't speak anything but dipped his left hand in the small basin filled with water on the table nearby and walked straightly towards the young man in a coma. As soon as he neared he carefully placed the golden core he had in his hands on the lower abdomen of the young man lying on the table.

The golden core floats an inch above the body of the young man lying on the bed. Lin Cian extended and bring his left hand drenched in the water near to the golden core. The water on his hands started to move towards the golden core. Lin Cian carried a little amount of water from the basin on his drenched hands and that was more than enough for him to heal the core because he learned the healing technique of the water tribe.

The water completely covered the whole golden core and formed a jacket around it and it looked like a core made of water. It descended towards the young man's body who was on the bed. It started to submerge into the body of the young man and after a few minutes, it was fully submerged into the body of the young man.

The young maiden held the left hand of the young man with both her hands and paid attention to everything that happened in front of her but her heart ached to look at her man's smile and cheer.

As the other members were hurt they rested outside and didn't enter the house except for William who had no injuries because the seniors protected him. He should be out treating the wounds of his seniors but June asked him to have a look at Lin Cian and ensured that she will help their comrades. So he was also there when Lin Cian was performing the soul replantation.

As soon as the golden core submerged into the body of the young man his pulse started to rise but blood started to leak out from Lin Cian's mouth as if it was his drool. Lin Cian backed a few steps and yet to move but was stopped by William who asked Lin Cian to have a rest.

Somewhere on the golden abyss continent, a young woman balanced herself on all her fours and panted heavily as if she ran for thousands of kilometers. Her clothes were drenched in her sweat and she was soaked. She wore a white cloth and she was on a grassland.

Another young woman ran towards her and reached her by lowering herself by taking a knee "are you ok?"
