"Yesterday, I killed two people from the town-level camp."

Su Lin’s words left Mengyi and Dao Guan looking at each other in surprise.

"Who did you kill?" Mengyi asked curiously.

Su Lin countered with a question:

"Will this cause trouble for you guys?"

"That depends on whom you killed. If you killed people from Changfeng Town, Hanyang Town..."

Mengyi deliberately paused, eyeing Su Lin’s expression, but he didn’t see what he expected, like fear or worry.

No fun. Seeing that Su Lin wasn’t scared, Mengyi pursed his lips:

"Then I’d just applaud you."

Clap, clap, clap.

He clapped his hands a few times with force, then asked:

"So who did you kill?"

"I don’t know." Su Lin shook his head, "Yesterday afternoon, we were deep inside the inner circle of Quanzhou Village, having just killed the Wandering Giant. A man and a woman suddenly appeared and had a strong murderous intent towards us.

"After we stated we were from Zhoushan Town, they decided to leave but kept lurking nearby. I figured they were checking if there were people from Zhoushan Town."

"And then?"

"Then I killed them both."

"? Initiatively?"

"Initiatively."

The expressions on the faces of Mengyi and Dao Guan shifted to strange, and there was a change in how they looked at Su Lin.

This is a fierce person.

"Those who appear in the inner circle are almost surely First-Transformed, right? You dare to go at them?"

Mengyi felt Su Lin was quite bold, charging at the opponents with just his First-Transformed grandfather.

Su Lin considered his words and replied:

"At the time, using ’Observation,’ I saw their Qi and Blood were almost the same as my grandfather’s, so..."

Mengyi was startled and interrupted him:

"Wait! Both of them were First-Transformed?!"

Dao Guan was equally shocked:

"Donor Su, you can kill a First Transformation now?"

"Yes." Su Lin nodded slowly.

He didn’t intend to hide this.

"Both of you should have noticed before that something was off with me."

The side effects caused by the Tap Dance, unless Mengyi and Dao Guan were fools, they would not have overlooked something odd about him.

Just right.

His Qi and Blood were nearly perfect now, so revealing his "ability" wasn’t too conspicuous.

Song Yiyi had once told him not to expose his "ability."

But now the combination of Divine Speed and Tap Dance has become Su Lin’s greatest trump card.

To deliberately avoid using it for secrecy would be akin to cutting off your nose to spite your face.

Moreover, what Song Yiren originally said about "not exposing" must have referred to the potential expression of Divine Speed.

To outsiders, Divine Speed seemed to only increase his speed.

But in reality, after awakening Divine Speed and experiencing the side effects of Tap Dance, Su Lin already knew its true capability.

The true ability of Divine Speed is not to increase his personal speed.

But to slow down the time flow of the entire world!

"After my Qi and Blood were about to be complete yesterday, I noticed my speed suddenly increased, even my grandfather couldn’t keep up. After sparring with him, I found I could match a First-Transformed Genetic Martial Artist."

Su Lin was half-truthful, half-deceitful in his words.

The expressions of Mengyi and Dao Guan immediately became somber.

Dao Guan solemnly said:

"Donor Su, can you show us?"

Su Lin nodded.

Having said this much, his main goal was to let Mengyi and Dao Guan know he had something worth valuing.

Once they report upwards, he could also gain Zhoushan Town’s attention.

As the saying goes: relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself.

Although Song Yiren had gotten a letter of recommendation for Martial Seal, she was too elusive, making Su Lin unsure if he should fully trust her.

Besides, she herself had once said not to rely too much on her influence over Zhoushan Town.

Who knows when she might suddenly fall from grace.

Under the watchful eyes of Mengyi and Dao Guan, Su Lin activated Divine Speed, his body emitting streaks of arcs, and the world suddenly slowed down.

In an instant, he flashed behind Mengyi, reaching for his right shoulder.

Mengyi’s casual gaze suddenly sharpened, and he quickly swung his hand towards Su Lin at lightning speed.

But unexpectedly, with his speed, he actually caught nothing.

"So fast!?"

Mengyi was immediately shocked.

Although he didn’t use his full power, what’s his strength? What’s Su Lin’s strength?

A dignified Spleen Lock First-Transformed Genetic Martial Artist couldn’t catch a mere Tendon Lock?!

"Donor Su, let this monk try too."

Dao Guan clasped his hands together, his eyes flashing as he witnessed the scene and struck decisively.

Swoosh!

A fierce wind roared, as his fair, slender right hand formed a claw and turned into a shadow, clawing towards Su Lin’s shoulder.

Su Lin frowned.

Even in the Divine Speed space, Dao Guan’s speed was extremely fast.

He dodged quickly.

But Dao Guan’s hand was like The Buddha’s Five Finger Mountain, relentlessly pursuing him!

Su Lin grew more determined, trying not to let Dao Guan catch him.

The two became two shadows in the main courtyard, you fleeing, me chasing, their speed creating a whirlwind in the courtyard!

The gusts stirred up stones, purple and blue electrical arcs flashed in the storm, with the sound of wind and thunder intertwining, creating an astonishing spectacle!

Su Tongxi and Song Yiyi, hearing the unusual sounds from the courtyard, hurried out. Upon seeing this scene, their beautiful eyes widened in shock.

These aren’t two people!

They’re clearly two whirlwinds!

Visible as shadows but not as people!

Mengyi, standing to the side, was awestruck.

"Let’s stop here."

After a while, Dao Guan stopped reluctantly, calling out.

Su Lin stopped accordingly, his breath only slightly heavy.

Seeing his condition, Dao Guan was even more impressed.

A Tendon Lock Martial Artist displaying such speed, yet not overly drained?!

"Donor Su’s speed..."

Dao Guan paused, thought for over ten seconds, and then gave his evaluation:

"Amazingly astonishing!"

And Mengyi was more straightforward:

"Oh my, oh goodness!!!"

He pulled on his loose robe and bounced over, hugging Su Lin’s neck, full of disbelief, and exclaimed:

"A Tendon Lock not yet First Transformation, moving so fast that even a Spleen Lock can’t catch up??? What kind of human are you?! Is this your ’ability’?"

"Yes." Su Lin panted a few times, then caught his breath.

Mengyi deliberately put on a serious face:

"I believe it now when you say you killed two First-Transformeds! Truly believe it!"

He clapped Su Lin’s shoulder twice vigorously with a hearty laugh and said:

"With Qi and Blood similar to your grandfather’s, surely they hadn’t unlocked the Kidney Lock, but your speed was more than enough to deal with them. Looks like our Zhoushan Town has truly found a treasure!"

Dao Guan elegantly adjusted his attire, walked gracefully towards them, and said in a gentle tone:

"Donor Su’s situation, this monk will report to the captain. Surely, the captain will be glad to invite Donor Su into the second team."

Mengyi chuckled:

"Heh, Old Su, you deep-thinking fellow, you let us know this for this purpose, right?"

"The scholar has sharp eyes." Su Lin answered with a smile.

After pausing, he continued:

"But those two people I killed..."

"They hadn’t even unlocked the Kidney Lock, just some small fry."

Mengyi waved his hand:

"Dead is dead.

"Even if it’s Changfeng or Hanyang, they wouldn’t pick a fight over two small roles;

"Other towns, even less qualified to challenge Zhoushan Town.

"From what you said, those two probably just recently ascended from the village-level camp, and were envious of your strength and foundation."

Kidney Lock...

Su Lin pondered over this new Genetic Lock term in his heart.
