Chapter 7

Looking at the determined Song Manshan and the others, Lin Tian smiled wryly and said, "What are you doing? When did I say I wanted your lives?"

In his previous life, Lin Tian had achieved the status of an Immortal Venerable, advancing through countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood. When facing enemies, he was decisive and ruthless.

If it were in his previous life, these security guards would have been eliminated with a wave of his hand when he was in a bad mood.

But now, Lin Tian had accepted his current body and circumstances.

This was a modern, civilized, and law-based society; there was no need for violence unless absolutely necessary.

As an Immortal Venerable, he could still adapt his mindset freely.

Hearing this, Song Manshan's face lit up with joy. He lifted his head and looked at Lin Tian with a determined gaze, "Master, you're not angry about our earlier rudeness?"

"It's not that serious. I said I just wanted to see the hotel's surveillance footage!" Lin Tian laughed, shaking his head. However, his expression then turned serious, and his voice became cold and stern, "But, I don't want anyone outside of this room to know what happened here!"

Song Manshan and the other security guards looked solemn and made their assurances.

Finally, Song Manshan warned the guards, "If anyone dares to leak any information about Master Xia, I, Song Manshan, will be the first to take their life, without Master having to lift a finger!"

"Alright, take me to see the surveillance footage!"

Lin Tian waved his hand and said calmly.

"Master, this way!"

Song Manshan personally led the way, taking Lin Tian to the surveillance room.

Following behind Song Manshan, Lin Tian let out a slight sigh of relief.

Shaking the building, cracking the ground, and shattering the sandbag from a distance were all things he had discovered he could do with the trace of immortal spirit energy in his body when he was walking to the security department. To avoid trouble, he used it to intimidate Song Manshan and the others.

On the way to the hotel, he had noticed a strange aura in his body, which he only realized was immortal spirit energy after entering the hotel.

Although he was puzzled about where the immortal spirit energy came from, Lin Tian had no chance to investigate.

On the way, the immortal spirit energy had been continuously cleansing his body, gradually depleting. The last bit was used up in that display.

Now, he was completely devoid of any cultivation, just an ordinary human.

However, even without cultivation, he was confident he could take down Song Manshan and the others. It was just that getting them to willingly give him the surveillance footage would be more difficult.

Soon, the footage of the day Lin Tian went up to the hotel rooftop and was secretly followed was found.

Fang Yuanshan!

Recognizing the face in the surveillance footage, Lin Tian's expression gradually turned icy, and his memories of this person became clearer.

Fang Yuanshan, a hotel employee who worked the same shift as Lin Tian at Yongjia Hotel, had bullied and humiliated him countless times since he became a part-time worker during the winter break.

Now, Lin Tian was almost certain that this person had pushed him off the building.

At the same time, he was secretly relieved. If he had been reborn just as his previous self was pushed off the building, he might have been shattered to pieces before he could even awaken, as the soul was at its most vulnerable at the moment of rebirth.

Having identified the幕后推手 behind the attempt on his life, Lin Tian turned and left the surveillance room. As he walked, he asked Song Manshan, who had caught up with him, "Do you recognize this person?"

"Yes, his name is Fang Yuanshan. He is extremely arrogant and domineering, so he left a strong impression on me!"

Song Manshan glanced at Lin Tian's icy expression, his heart racing, and quickly replied.

At the same time, he wondered if Lin Tian's fall from the building was related to Fang Yuanshan.

But how could Fang Yuanshan have succeeded in his plot against the great martial arts master, Lin Tian?

His mind was filled with questions, but Song Manshan dared not ask and could only suppress his doubts.

As they walked out of the security training area, the outside was in chaos.

Lin Tian's kick had caused the building to shake, and cracks had appeared on the floors. Everyone in the hotel thought they were experiencing an earthquake, and there was a commotion, but it had now calmed down.

However, what made the employees nervous was that the general manager of Yongjia Hotel, Jian Xin Zhu, had fainted and was in critical condition.

Seeing a crowd gathered around a sofa in the corridor nearby, Song Manshan stepped forward and shouted, "What's going on?"

"Minister Song, it's bad! Manager Jian has fainted!" A hotel employee saw Song Manshan and replied urgently.

The others moved aside, and Lin Tian and Song Manshan saw Jian Xin Zhu, who had fainted and was lying on the sofa.

Jian Xin Zhu's face was pale, and her breathing was weak.

"What happened to Sister Jian?"

Lin Tian hurried forward and asked Su Yingxue, who had been watching over her.

Seeing who had arrived, Su Yingxue's face was filled with anger, and her eyes were cold. "You're asking what happened? It's all because you upset her so much that her latent congenital heart disease was triggered, and now she's in a critical condition!"

"Stop the nonsense! The earthquake has stopped. Quickly carry Xin Zhu to the hospital. Waiting for the ambulance might be too late! I'll carry her to the car!"

Zhao Xie pushed Lin Tian aside and said, "Pauper, get lost!"

He then prepared to pick up Jian Xin Zhu.

But before Zhao Xie could touch her, a hand like an iron clamp grabbed him.

Unable to break free, Zhao Xie turned and glared at Lin Tian, shouting, "Pauper scum, are you still harboring resentment over being fired by Xin Zhu? Do you want to murder her?"

"Get lost!"

Lin Tian roared, pushing Zhao Xie to the side.

After being cleansed by the trace of immortal spirit energy, Lin Tian's physique was far superior to that of an ordinary person, even matching that of a world-class professional boxer. To him, Zhao Xie, whose body was almost drained by alcohol and debauchery, was just a little chick.

Seeing this, Su Yingxue trembled and shouted at Lin Tian, "Lin Tian, what are you doing? Xin Zhu's life is in danger. Do you want her to die?"

She then prepared to carry Jian Xin Zhu to the hospital herself.

"Her condition is like a flickering candle in the wind, ready to go out at any moment. She can't wait for the ambulance or even reach the hospital. If you don't want her to die, let me take a look!"

Lin Tian's expression was solemn as he stared at Su Yingxue and said in a deep voice.

Su Yingxue's body trembled, and her movements froze. Her face turned pale.

To her, Jian Xin Zhu was her best friend and close sister. If anything happened to her, she didn't know how she would face it or go on, as if a piece of her heart had been torn out.

As Su Yingxue hesitated, Zhao Xie, who had been pushed to the ground, was furious. He pointed at Lin Tian and shouted, "Kid, you're dead! Even the heavens can't save you!"

"Shut up!"

To Lin Tian, Zhao Xie was just a buzzing fly. But now that he was about to help, this person was making him irritable. He turned and said, "Song Manshan, throw this idiot out. He's too noisy!"

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Just as Lin Tian finished speaking, Zhao Xie burst into a fit of laughter. "You, a poor student, think you have the right to command the security of Yongjia Hotel? Idiot!"

He then turned to Song Manshan and the others and ordered loudly, "Now, I, Zhao Xie, am exercising the authority of my father, the company's board director. I order you to break this insolent pauper's legs and throw him out of the hotel! I'll take responsibility for any trouble!"
