The End Times as a Song

Chapter 423 Deliberate provocation

"Who gave you permission to enter the Love Pavilion...?"

Lin Yin's eyes were icy cold, like a thousand-year-old frozen pool. He stared intently at Madam Jiu, his voice as cold as an ice pick, filled with boundless majesty and anger.

Madam Jiu felt a chill run down her spine when Lin Yin glared at her, but she still forced herself to remain calm and mocked him in a pretentious manner: "Oh...! Sorry, I forgot, you don't allow me to enter your Xiangsi Pavilion...? Sorry, but I accidentally entered your Xiangsi Pavilion, what can you do to me? I also accidentally attacked your people...? What can you do about it...?" She deliberately provoked Lin Yin to see his reaction.

Upon hearing this, a murderous glint flashed in Lin Yin's eyes. He clenched his fist tightly, and a huge ball of light gradually gathered in his hand, radiating light so bright that no one dared to look directly at it.

"Why do you look so unhappy? Do you want to kill me? Without the Divine Source, can you kill me?" Madam Jiu looked at Lin Yin's actions, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile, while waving the palm-leaf fan in her hand, mocking him.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yin's face grew even more gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm asking you...? Who allowed you to enter the Acacia Pavilion...?" His voice was low and hoarse, filled with suppressed anger. Lin Yin continued to ask Madam Jiu with a cold attitude.

"Love Pavilion, I was just casually strolling around? I didn't expect your Love Pavilion barrier to be so weak today, it was broken in no time? It seems you were seriously injured this time."

Madam Jiu mocked Lin Yin. Lin Yin's anger surged, and she unleashed her full power. She glanced at Madam Jiu, and five Soul-Devouring Insects emerged from behind her.

"What...? You can't hold back anymore and want to punish me...?"

Lin Yin suddenly flew into a rage, but his anger did not seem to frighten the Ninth Madam. On the contrary, she continued to wave her palm-leaf fan casually, appearing completely unconcerned.

"Get out of the Love Pavilion...?"

Lin Yin spoke sternly, issuing a final warning to Madam Jiu. However, Madam Jiu was not intimidated by his threat. Instead, she stopped walking and ceased waving her palm-leaf fan. She glanced at Lin Yin, her tone becoming serious.

"Don't forget what you promised your mother?"

These words silenced Lin Yin, his face darkening. Madam Jiu continued, "I hope you will keep your promise, or you will bear the consequences." With that, she turned and left, leaving Lin Yin to ponder alone.

The Ninth Madam gave Lin Yin a final reminder, then turned and gave Huan Rugo a meaningful look. Huan Rugo felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being watched by a ferocious wild beast. The Ninth Madam approached Huan Rugo step by step, softly uttering two words.

"Humans...!"

The Ninth Madam reached out and approached Huan Rugo, who took a few steps back in fear.

"What do you want to do...?"

Lin Yin pulled Huan Ru Ge up and shielded her behind him. Lin Yin stared warily at Madam Jiu as he spoke.

"Heh...! What can I do...? Interesting...! Very interesting...! It seems this human is no ordinary human...!"

The Ninth Madam made a pointed remark.

"What kind of human she is...! It's none of your business. She's mine, so don't even think about messing with her."

Lin Yin warned Madam Jiu once again.

"Fine, I won't touch your people anymore...! The condition is that you have to find the Divine Source, which you can't do now...! You've hurt yourself like this just to find the Divine Source...! How ridiculous."

Madam Jiu glanced at Lin Yin, a cold smile playing on her lips, and said sarcastically, "Oh, isn't this our great hero Lin Yin? He's really quite imposing."

"Get out...!" Lin Yin's face was gloomy, his eyes flashing with anger. He had already reached his limit in his patience with Madam Jiu, and he was unwilling to say another word.

"Fine, I'll leave then. What's so great about staying in that dilapidated Lovesick Pavilion...!" Madam Jiu said disdainfully, flicking her sleeves and revealing a smug smile. She deliberately glanced at Huan Rugo and Lin Yin before turning and leaving.

Lin Yin took a deep breath, trying to suppress his anger. He turned around and, unusually, asked Huan Rugo with concern, "Are you alright?"

Huan Rugo was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Lin Yin to care about her so much. Blushing, she lowered her head and replied shyly, "I'm fine...!" At the same time, she realized she had been holding Lin Yin's hand tightly and quickly and awkwardly let go.

At this moment, the two maids beside him looked at Lin Yin in horror, unsure how to explain Huan Rugo's injury. Lin Yin glared at them and sternly questioned, "What's wrong with you two? Didn't I tell you to take her to change her clothes? Why did you let her get injured like this...?"

As soon as Huan Rugo released her grip, Lin Yin noticed the bloodstains on her sleeve. He remembered that Huan Rugo had been injured. He...
