Chapter Summary
Even though he was a mentalist, he had killed far too many people in the past, so this matter absolutely couldn't be exposed. It was true; if Liu Ning had been any later, Shangguan Bao would have scattered the iron balls and, using his mental power to control Lin Lei, would likely have been killed instantly. He warned him not to think there were no other capable people in the world, that he was the only one who could launch a sneak attack.
For Shangguan Bao, the Mage Guild had no goodwill whatsoever. The Mage Guild had always supported Shangguan Huolong, so even if there was something going on, Shangguan Bao would try to avoid the Mage Guild. But today's incident was no one's fault but their own. They were not careful enough and offended the mages. Mages are the most respected people in the world. How could they blame others for this?
But this matter couldn't be made public. If everyone knew, Shangguan Bao would have no face to live on. Even though he was a mentalist, he had killed far too many people in the past, so this matter absolutely couldn't be exposed. He was thinking about how to resolve this, otherwise…
This guy looked at his and Lin Lei's positions. If he launched a sneak attack now, he might be able to succeed. Although there were two small fireballs in the sky, he was willing to risk getting injured. When this guy started planning, Liu Ning, who was standing next to him, could already sense it. His spiritual power was contained in the surrounding air. Unfortunately, this was absolutely impossible.
Before anyone could react, Liu Ning made his move, catching everyone off guard. He punched the guy squarely in the stomach, causing him to vomit blood. Even if you're a psychic, this isn't a joke. You have to understand that if you want to ambush a mage, you'll have to pay a heavy price, a price that most people can't bear.
"Don't ask me why I made a move. This kid had already started gathering his spiritual power. And don't ask me how I sensed it. I'll tell you it's a talent of mine. So this kid was preparing to make a move. If I'm not mistaken, you should be his first target. After you're killed, he might use other tricks. That's why I made a move. It's also to protect you. As a magic follower, I know what I should do."
Liu Ning chuckled as he spoke. As he finished, several iron balls emerged from the man's pocket. It was true; if Liu Ning had been any later, Shangguan Bao would have scattered the iron balls and, using his mental power to control Lin Lei, would likely have been killed instantly. Even if Lin Lei's fireballs were floating in the sky, they wouldn't have been able to reach him that quickly, unless Lin Lei used his Fire Resistance Ring. However, the Fire Resistance Ring was only effective against humans or ferocious beasts, not against these thrown objects. Liu Ning might have taken the hit for Lin Lei, but he would have been seriously injured. Since the outcome was so unfavorable, Liu Ning decided to strike first, showing the young man his power. He warned him not to think there were no other capable people in the world, that he was the only one who could launch a sneak attack.
"I really didn't realize you were so bold, much bolder than your brother. I also can't understand why your brother would have a brother like you. Since that's the case, then this matter can't be left like this. You've already attacked me. What kind of punishment do you want?"
Lin Lei was so angry he almost laughed. How could there be such a person? He was the one who did something wrong, yet he still tried to ambush him to settle things. If Liu Ning hadn't been there, Lin Lei would probably be lying on the ground right now. There aren't many people who dare to attack a mage. Luckily, you were in the wild. If you were in the city, the Mage Guild would definitely not let you off the hook just for what you did. If you were in the city, the Shangguan family might hand this kid over, and the Mage Guild might let it go. But if the Shangguan family wanted to protect this kid, the mages would probably descend upon the Shangguan family and wipe out your entire family. Don't think the Mage Guild wouldn't do that.
The Mage Guild doesn't dare to go against the Second Speaker, but your Shangguan family is nothing. Although you are one of the eight great families, your ranking is already very low. If you want to stir up any trouble, you are probably not qualified.
Shangguan Bao looked at Liu Ning with some horror. He hadn't expected this guy to be so powerful, able to sense even mental energy. How was that possible? Since becoming a mentalist, he had launched similar sneak attacks at least eight or ten times, and almost no one had been able to sense them. Even war god-level experts were only aware of them after the fact, so failure was impossible. But the facts were right in front of him, leaving him no choice but to believe it. Now, Shangguan Bao was regretting his actions. Just who was Liu Ning? How could he sense even mental energy? However, he didn't have time to think about that now. He needed to figure out how to escape. The heavy blow had left him weak, and the guards around him didn't dare to fight a mage.
How to leave this place is what Shangguan Bao should be thinking about most right now. He still has a wonderful life ahead of him, and the entire Shangguan family is waiting for him to inherit. If he were to be ruined here, he would be absolutely unwilling. How could he not have a good life ahead of him? No matter how great the loss, he has to get Lin Lei to let him go.
"What does the mage Linley want?"
After a few minutes, the guy felt he had recovered enough and gritted his teeth to say this. He wanted to ask Lin Lei how to end this matter. If it could be ended, he would pay any price. But if Lin Lei was adamant, things would be difficult.
"Since you're capable of doing something so impressive, then don't ask me what I want to do. According to the rules of the martial world, the rule for the defeated is to drop everything you have and leave this place."
Linley didn't force them. As long as you launched that kind of attack on the mage, even if you haven't actually done it, but you already had that kind of thought, then you have to accept the punishment from the neighborhood. If you don't accept it, when Linley returns, the Mage Guild will also come to question you. At that time, what you will bring to your family will not be a simple matter. It may bring shame to the entire family. This is something that everyone is very clear about without needing to be told it.
