66: Chapter 66 The Taiyi Imprisoning Heaven Finger! Terrifying Everyone!

Before the words had even faded, Chen Lin brought his fingers together like a blade, and with his right index and middle fingers, he suddenly pointed forward.

In an instant, the world changed color.

The firmament seemed like a thin sheet of paper gripped by an invisible giant hand, brutally torn open from the very center into a hideous gash.

Boom—!

The ink-colored canopy of the sky trembled violently.

Dense clouds rolled and crumbled like boiling magma.

A golden crack spread wildly from the gash in all directions, as if the entire night sky had been shattered into a spiderweb of lines by the power of this one finger.

Following that, a finger extended from the depths of the firmament.

That was not a finger that any human should possess.

Its entire body was a translucent, glazed gold, with distinct knuckles.

Every line upon it looked like laws inscribed by gods using the stars.

At the fingertip, golden arcs of electricity crackled and exploded.

Space around this finger twisted and collapsed, emitting a piercing roar.

Within a hundred-meter radius, the air suddenly solidified.

Small gravel on the ground began to float uncontrollably, as if gravity itself were trembling beneath this finger.

The finger descended.

It was not fast, yet it carried an absolute oppression that screamed, "You have nowhere to run."

The girl—that stunningly beautiful woman who had just been cunningly thinking, "Better you die than I"—suddenly halted her steps.

She felt it.

A terrifying pressure crushing down from directly above her head, as if the entire sky were collapsing.

She subconsciously looked up.

Her pupils shrank to pinpoints.

That golden finger was already inches away.

"No!!"

She shrieked, her arms instinctively crossing to block above her head.

The Source Energy within her body surged wildly, attempting to condense a protective barrier in the final instant.

But it was too late.

Boom!

The finger struck accurately.

Terrifying energy surged forth wildly.

The girl felt like an ant placed beneath a waterfall, bracing against the rushing current.

Every inch of her body was enduring terrifying pressure.

"Crack!"

Bones shattered.

The golden energy tore through her left shoulder, poured violently into the wound, and then—exploded!

Pain arrived.

Ah!!!

The girl let out a miserable wail.

The aftermath of the golden energy exploded beneath her feet.

The ground cracked, and gravel flew everywhere.

A visible shockwave of air rippled outwards.

The girl was pinned in place by this force.

Despair, helplessness, and regret filled her heart.

Crucially, fresh blood gushed rapidly from the wound, dyeing her sleeves red, leaving her in a wretched state.

[Ding! Target detected: Terror, breakdown, excruciating pain. Shock points +999!]

[Current emotion points: 9470]

This scene left the three burly men in the distance stunned.

The three of them stood rooted to the spot as if hit by an immobilization spell, their mouths simultaneously hanging open in an 'O' shape.

Six eyes widened in shock.

"Seriously, bro, what's the meaning of this?"

The leader of the burly men was completely bewildered.

His brain was spinning wildly at this moment, but he simply could not understand what was happening before him.

"Isn't this man her husband?"

"Shouldn't he be playing the hero saving the beauty?"

"Shouldn't he be confronting the three of us?"

"Shouldn't he be putting on a cliché drama of 'Let go of my wife'?"

"Why did he turn around and beat his own wife like this!?!"

"That finger... that finger that fell from the sky..."

The burly man swallowed, the sound of his Adam's apple bobbing clearly audible in the silent night.

The skinny monkey behind him was the first to recover, his voice trembling: "B-boss... this guy seems... not to be her husband?"

"No shit! I can see that!"

"Then, then boss, what do we do??" Another accomplice turned back to look at the leader with a grave expression.

The leader remained silent for a long time, finally shaking his head slowly: "We must have run into a peer. Don't worry, it's nothing."

"This guy looks even more twisted than I am."

"We're all brothers in the trade, so to speak."

The leader turned back to reassure his accomplices.

On the other side, Chen Lin frowned as he looked at the girl beside him.

"Ouch, my left arm!"

"My arm! It hurts so much!"

The girl clutched her wound tightly, rolling on the ground while grimacing in pain.

The intense pain made her face deathly pale.

Her originally stunning face was now twisted into something somewhat ugly due to the agony.

"Stop your damn wailing."

Chen Lin's brow furrowed even tighter as he spoke in a deep voice.

But the girl seemed not to hear him, continuing to lie on the ground, repeatedly wailing about her left arm hurting.

Chen Lin raised his hand and slapped her: "I told you to stop your damn wailing, didn't you hear me?"

"Who's fault is this now? Damn it, trying to pull that 'Better you die than I' crap on me!"

"Do I even know you? And you try to drag me in as a scapegoat?"

Chen Lin loathed the girl's actions from the bottom of his heart.

Don't let her beauty fool you; what she just pulled—if it had been anyone else, they probably would have been screwed over to the point of leaving no bones behind!

She really is a woman with a snake-like heart; it's truly disgusting!

Chen Lin's gaze was icy.

Fortunately, he was a Martial General, which allowed him to avoid all of that.

Otherwise...

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Sigh, I really...

Chen Lin backhanded her again with a slap.

The girl lay on the ground, covering her face, crying in terror.

Endless regret welled up in her heart.

But she couldn't say a word.

All of this was her own doing.

As her life force drained away, the woman died.

On the side, watching Chen Lin slap her left and right, he looked just like the god of slapping from Ancient Greece!

The leader's mouth twitched uncontrollably; he walked forward and gave a thumbs up: "Brother, you're ruthless!"

"We can consider this a case of not knowing each other without fighting; I'll leave this woman to you."

"If there's nothing else, we'll be taking our leave. There are plenty of bars, I'll go find another one while it's dark."

"Wait."

Chen Lin stopped his hand, looked up at the leader, and made a strange expression: "One thing at a time. Just because I hit her doesn't mean I won't hit you."

As he spoke, Chen Lin rubbed his hands together.

A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and the cold light in their depths made one's heart run cold.

He was ready to strike.

I was just worrying about where to farm another 1000 emotion points, and here they are!

These three burly men are definitely not good people, so there's no psychological burden to farming them.

???

The leader was stunned, his face full of confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"You're not a peer?"

"Then why did you hit this woman?"

"And you were slapping her left and right like some Demon Pill."

"Bro, is this right?"

Just while the leader was dazed, the skinny guy next to him leaned in and said gravely: "Boss, he's messing with you!"

The leader rolled his eyes at the skinny guy and looked back at Chen Lin, his tone instantly turning cold: "Brother, are you joking with me?"

"She..." Before the leader could finish his sentence, Chen Lin kicked him fiercely.

"Urgh!"

The leader retched, feeling as if his stomach had been hit by a locomotive, and flew straight backwards.

"Joking? I'll joke your mother!"

Chen Lin was furious and menacing: "I hate you scumbags who bully girls the most!"

"Why the hell shouldn't I hit you!?!"

???

At this moment, the leader was full of question marks.

"Seriously, bro, look at what you're saying—are you sick in the head!?"
