Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 653: Using Humans as Bait

Hearing Chen Yuanye's excited and rhythmic description, as if he was there that day, Lin Yu just nodded indifferently.

"So that's how it is. This is just a demon with great martial arts skills who was beaten to death."

"Then what's so special about his body that it would take two years for someone to escort his body?"

As Lin Yu was speaking, Chen Yuanye spoke again.

"You don't know this... On that day, Xie Chong's body was picked up and taken away by five martial arts schools, even though they said they wanted revenge and to crush the evildoer to ashes."

"But not long after, rumors began to spread that Xie Chong's body was hiding a huge secret!"

"It is said that this is the secret that can enable any warrior to reach the Grandmaster level. After all, judging from Xie Chong's experience, he has indeed reached a nearly invincible transcendent state twice."

Having said that, Chen Yuanye looked at Lin Yu.

"Junior Sister... now that you've seen the corpse, is there anything peculiar about it?"

Lin Yu shook his head proudly.

"I don't feel anything."

"In the martial arts world, you have to rely on yourself wherever you go. Aren't the techniques you already know enough to practice?" Lin Yu looked at Chen Yuanye with some disdain. "To rely on a corpse to reach the Grandmaster level... It's better not to be a Grandmaster like that."

"What's more, it's the corpse of a demon. If Xie Chong really made such rapid progress in martial arts by killing his fellow disciples and his master to prove his Dao, do you think you, Senior Brother Chen Yuanye, want to follow his example?!"

At the end of his speech, Lin Yu was almost scolding Chen Yuanye.

Chen Yuanye's face flushed red again, a little embarrassed. "Junior sister, you're right... I've really been misled by these legends."

However, Chen Yuanye quickly adjusted his mentality, and a look of relief appeared on his face when he looked at Lin Yu.

"Junior sister, no matter what... we are truly lucky to have you in Mingzhen."

"I'm very grateful to you for coming to save me this time!"

Lin Yu looked at Chen Yuanye: "We'll talk about this later...it doesn't matter what happens to Xie Chong's body."

"The most urgent task is to solve the anomaly of Chen Family Castle," Lin Yu said in a deep voice, "Brother Chen, how much of your skills can you still use now?"

"There's still half left," Chen Yuanye whispered. "Actually, my hidden injuries have almost healed by now. But while recuperating here, I discovered I've been poisoned by some unusual and strange poison. Whenever I exercise, the toxin spreads through my meridians and body, causing me excruciating pain..."

"poison?"

Lin Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, poison. This is the main reason why I dare not act here. I don't know when I contracted this poison," Chen Yuanye sighed, struggling to support his spear and standing up shakily. "But you are right, Junior Sister. I can't lose face for Mingzhen Martial Arts School again."

"Chenjiabao is my hometown. No matter if it's a demon or something else that's causing trouble here... I will never let it go."

Lin Yu looked at Chen Yuanye who had cheered up and nodded.

"That's more like a warrior of my generation," Lin Yu said, then asked, "Also, this escort team is transporting Xie Chong's body. Although it has nothing to do with the anomaly of Chen Family Fort, we may be able to use this to our advantage."

As Lin Yu spoke, Chen Yuanye frowned.

"Use? How?"

"The aura of this corpse is inherently attractive to demons, and coupled with the fact that it holds a secret that captivates warriors everywhere, this means that no matter if it's human or demon, they won't let this opportunity slip away," Lin Yu whispered. "The most frustrating thing about all this weirdness is that it's hiding in the dark and refusing to show its face, so the best way is to lure it out."

"And now, we have the most tempting bait."

As Lin Yu was speaking, Chen Yuanye carefully looked at this "junior sister" whom he met for the first time and spoke in disbelief.

"Junior sister... you are really courageous."

"I've been away from the martial arts school for too long. I had no idea that a genius like you, with such amazing character and talent, had emerged from the school."

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows: "I can't be called a genius - let's go, senior brother, if you can't walk, do you want me to carry you?"

Chen Yuanye shook his head: "It's okay, I just have a hidden disease and poisoning, I'm not a disabled person."

As he spoke, Chen Yuanye picked up his spear and slowly walked to the water's edge.

Then...

Chen Yuanye took a deep breath, then pointed his toes and floated out like a green leaf!

Steam was surging on the surface of the water and the surface of the stone was slippery, but Chen Yuanye seemed unaware of it. He tapped his toes again and then landed on the second stone.

His speed was very fast and getting faster and faster. He flew across the water like an osprey and soon arrived right below the cave where Lin Yu had fallen.

Lin Yu followed closely behind, and couldn't help but sigh in admiration at Chen Yuanye's agility.

"This Chen Yuanye is indeed quite capable. He must be scared to death to stay down there and not dare to come out."

He had been down there for a whole year, and still had hidden illnesses, old injuries, and toxins that hadn't been cured, but his martial arts skills were still so amazing!

Looking up at the light from above, Chen Yuanye took a deep breath, bent his legs and jumped!

"Oh!"

Chen Yuanye jumped high.

The height was at least three meters, which was easy for Chen Yuanye to jump over!

After he jumped up, the dazzling light made Chen Yuanye, who was almost degenerating into a cave-dwelling creature, couldn't help but squint his eyes.

"Finally... it's out again!"

However, compared to the dazzling eyes and the heat around him, Chen Yuanye had other more obvious feelings.

"Hey...it hurts!"

It felt as if the meridians all over his body were being bitten by tiny insects, and in an instant, Chen Yuanye's forehead was covered in sweat.

At the same time, he also noticed that there were three very alert men around him.

"who are you?!"

"Where's the heroine?"

Chen Yuanye also felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. Seeing these unfamiliar faces appear in his home, he immediately held his spear in front of him.

"Who are you?"

While the two sides were confronting each other, Lin Yu's voice was heard.

"Leader Yue Zhenqiao, Senior Brother Chen Yuanye, stop."

"They are all our own people."

Lin Yu, who came out of the cave, spoke helplessly, and both sides withdrew their hands cautiously.

When Yue Zhenqiao heard Lin Yu say this, he looked Chen Yuanye up and down and said, "Your Excellency is actually Chen Yuanye, the Broken Gate Spear?"

"Are you Yue, the head escort of the Jinfu Escort Agency, and the last disciple of Master Hu of the Shiling Martial Arts School?"

After the two exchanged names, they clasped their fists at the same time.

"I've heard so much about you! Master Chen, you're so skilled!"

"Seeing is believing. Master Yue is indeed an extraordinary person!"

Lin Yu looked at the two people who greeted him and couldn't help but sigh.

"So, you two have heard of each other?"

"Even if we know each other, stop flattering each other. We're in a hurry right now and don't have time for you two to be polite to each other here!"
