Transmigration and Self-Saving Cultivation

Chapter 177 The Psychological Game.

While Jun Luochuan and Su Yao were engrossed in their arduous cultivation, the mysterious uninvited guest, like a ghost, gradually revealed his detestable form. This person was none other than their long-time mortal enemy—the hypocritical villain Lin Yu.

Lin Yu's face still bore his signature, nauseatingly hypocritical smile, a smile like an elaborately painted mask concealing the sinister and malicious depths of his heart. His eyes, however, revealed a venomous glint, as if ready to devour one whole. "Jun Luochuan, I never expected to run into you here at this critical moment. It seems even the heavens are determined to help me achieve my great ambitions." His voice carried a hint of smugness, like a piercing shriek.

Jun Luochuan showed no fear, resolutely standing up, his gaze like a cold, sharp blade piercing straight at Lin Yu. "Lin Yu, stop your pretense and posturing. Today is your day of reckoning, your end has come." His words were resounding, striking Lin Yu's heart like a heavy hammer.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu burst into unrestrained laughter, a laugh as chilling as the cry of an owl. "You two ignorant brats? Aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew? You're truly courting death."

Su Yao's cheeks turned bright red with anger, like a ripe apple. She puffed out her cheeks and said, "Don't get carried away. We won't be intimidated by your few words." Her voice was clear and firm, like a clear mountain stream.

Lin Yu's lips curled up slightly, the curve filled with disdain, as if mocking an overconfident ant. "Little brat, this isn't a place for you to interrupt. Stay behind Jun Luochuan and don't embarrass yourself."

Without hesitation, Jun Luochuan stepped forward, standing firmly in front of Su Yao like a towering mountain. "If you dare to lay a finger on her, I will make sure you die a horrible death." His voice was deep and authoritative, like a judgment from hell.

Upon seeing this, a sly glint flashed in Lin Yu's eyes. "Jun Luochuan, do you really think I would be afraid of you? However, I am merciful and can give you two pathetic creatures a chance to survive. As long as you obediently kneel down and surrender, wagging your tails and begging for mercy like dogs, I might take pity on you and consider sparing your worthless lives."

Jun Luochuan snorted coldly, his voice as icy as if squeezed from his nose. "Do you think I'm stupid enough to believe your utter nonsense? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child, someone you can fool at will?"

Lin Yu shrugged, feigning helplessness. "Believe it or not, this is the only lifeline you can grasp. You'll regret it if you miss it."

Jun Luochuan understood that Lin Yu was attempting to disrupt their formation through such a despicable tactic, launching a sinister psychological attack. He silently warned himself that he must remain as calm as a rock and not be deceived by the opponent's tricks.

"Lin Yu, your petty tricks and despicable schemes are nothing but a clumsy performance by a clown in front of me, and they have no effect on me whatsoever," Jun Luochuan said firmly.

Lin Yu smiled, a smile full of malice. "Is that so? Then let's wait and see—we'll see who has the last laugh."

A brief, oppressive silence fell between the two sides. The atmosphere was so tense that it felt as if the air itself could freeze, making it difficult to breathe.

Lin Yu opened his malicious mouth again. "Jun Luochuan, you'd better open your eyes and think it through. The consequences of going against me are terrible, like falling into the eighteenth level of hell, with no chance of ever turning back."

Jun Luochuan showed no sign of backing down, his eyes burning with unwavering determination. "So what? In my entire life, I, Jun Luochuan, have never known the meaning of the word 'fear.' Even if it's a mountain of knives or a sea of ​​fire, I will never retreat a single step."

Lin Yu's face instantly darkened, like the sky before a storm. "Fine, since you're so stubborn and ungrateful, don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless."

As he spoke, Lin Yu suddenly exuded a powerful and suffocating aura, like a surging tsunami, attempting to put heavy psychological pressure on Jun Luochuan and the others, forcing them to submit in fear.

Jun Luochuan remained unmoved, instead revealing a contemptuous smile, a smile that seemed to be the greatest mockery of Lin Yu. "Is this all the meager skill you have? You dare to flaunt your power in front of me? You're truly a laughingstock."

Lin Yu was thoroughly enraged by Jun Luochuan's attitude, and like a powder keg that had been lit, he launched a furious and relentless attack.

Jun Luochuan reacted swiftly, his movements agile as a cheetah, engaging Lin Yu in a thrilling and intense life-or-death battle.

Su Yao stood nervously to the side, her hands clenched tightly, her palms sweating, her eyes never leaving Jun Luochuan, silently cheering him on.

During the fierce battle, Lin Yu constantly provoked Jun Luochuan with words full of provocation and threats. "You think you can defeat me? Don't be delusional, you're nothing but an ant under my feet."

Jun Luochuan, however, remained steadfast and unmoved, maintaining his composure and rationality. "You're just bluffing, all bark and no bite. Watch how I defeat you."

In this thrilling battle of wits and strength, who will emerge victorious on this ever-changing battlefield...?
