But in Lin Lang’s ears, these words were just some empty platitudes.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm! You’re right!"
Outwardly, Lin Lang patiently listened, nodding politely from time to time...
Yet, deep down, he remained sharp and alert!
He keenly noticed that Harrison’s speech always seemed to pause intentionally or unintentionally!
His eyes occasionally glanced at the clock on the wall—
This was clearly a delay tactic!
But why was he doing this?
Could it be that he didn’t want Lin Lang to travel with Xina’s family?
Lin Lang’s heart was filled with suspicion—
Nevertheless, he was not alarmed!
Because, he had also left his Divine Soul Mark on Xina!
As long as Xina was in danger, he could sense it immediately!
With this reassurance, Lin Lang decided to sit back and watch:
To see what tricks Harrison was up to!
...
Outside the Special Agent Bureau!
A smooth road stretched across the fields.
Xina, with her father, mother, and sister, sat together in a spacious black sedan, heading to their long-missed hometown.
The family chatted idly in the car:
"Xina! Tell Mom, what’s going on between you and Lin Lang?"
"Oh, why are you talking about him again...?"
"Why don’t you ask him clearly? Is he going to marry you, or Natalia? He can’t marry both, right?"
"Oh! So annoying! He won’t marry! He won’t marry anyone!"
"And what about you? If you’re not marrying Lin Lang... what about the neighbor Tom?"
"Mom! Tom isn’t handsome at all, not as much as Lin Lang! How can you let sister marry him?"
"Exactly, exactly..."
Although the car was noisy, it was filled with a warm atmosphere.
However!
This warmth did not last long—
At a bend in the road, within the dense bushes!
A man dressed in black lay in concealment!
With cold eyes, he stared expressionlessly at the approaching vehicle, tightly gripping a bottle emitting an eerie glow.
As the car approached, he suddenly hurled the bottle forcefully towards the center of the road.
With a crisp sound!
The bottle shattered!
A black smoke emerged and quickly condensed into a huge, distorted monster!
"Roar!"
The monster exuded a strong aura of darkness, sharp fangs protruded from its mouth, and its scarlet vertical pupils burned with bloodlust.
It let out an ear-splitting roar, the sound striking like a heavy hammer, causing the surrounding air to quake!
...
"Ah!"
"Shit, fuck!"
"My God! It’s a demon!"
Inside the car!
Xina’s family, who had been chatting, were caught off guard by such a monster and screamed in surprise!
The next moment!
The demon swung its thick arms, smashing mercilessly towards the moving car.
Bang!
With just one hit!
The car flew into the air like a snapped kite!
After flipping several times mid-air, it landed heavily in the roadside bushes!
Luckily Xina reacted quickly—
Releasing a large amount of Spiritual Qi in time, shielding her father, mother, and sister, preventing them from being harmed!
Yet the demon continued advancing towards them!
"Ah!"
The sister screamed in terror!
The mother’s voice trembled:
"Demon! How could there be a demon here? My God!"
Father’s face turned pale, but he still feigned calmness:
"Don’t be afraid, daddy’s here!"
...
"My God! Is it an SS-Class demon?!"
Xina was shocked!
But she also knew that she absolutely shouldn’t lose her composure at this moment!
So!
She took a deep breath and summoned her Superpower—[Summoning Technique]!
Simultaneously shouted loudly:
"Oh God, heed my call!"
In an instant!
A beam of light bloomed above her head!
A Divine Beast, covered in rock-like scales, appeared out of thin air—a Meteor Beast!
Xina saw this and shouted to the Meteor Beast:
"Oh God, please show your mighty power and defeat this demon!"
"Roar!"
The Meteor Beast roared to the sky and pounced towards the demon!
Raising its massive fist, it swung down hard!
Every strike carried immense force, sending dust flying wherever it landed!
However!
The SS-Class demon was far more powerful than Xina had imagined—
After several rounds of confrontation!
The Meteor Beast gradually fell into a disadvantage!
Wounds appeared on its body, and its movements became sluggish.
Until it was smashed to pieces by a demon slap!
Dissipating into starlight!
...
"Roar!"
The demon seized an opportunity, roaring and charged fiercely towards Xina’s family.
Seeing this, Xina’s father unhesitatingly stood in front of his family!
"Dad, move out of the way!"
Xina shouted anxiously!
But her father glanced back at his family and said resolutely:
"I won’t let it harm you!"
The demon raised its arm high, its sharp claws glittered with a chilling light, slashing towards Xina’s father!
"No!"
But at this critical moment!
A dazzling light suddenly erupted from Xina’s body—
A phantom figure!
Instantly appeared before everyone!
It was Lin Lang’s Divine Soul!
His eyes were cold, and an imposing aura emanated from him!
He slightly raised his hand!
A brilliant light, like lightning, shot towards the demon—
It was the power of the Law of Light!
The moment the light hit the demon!
The demon didn’t even have time to let out a scream!
It turned into a wisp of green smoke, disappearing into nothingness...
...
Xina’s family looked on in awe at everything that had just happened.
After a long while.
Xina’s sister timidly asked:
"Sister, was that just now...?"
Xina let out a long sigh of relief, her eyes sparkling:
"It was Lin Lang, he saved us..."
