Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 895 855: I Gave You a Chance
Those Guards hiding in the surrounding weeds saw Lin Yi wave his palm, and in an instant a column of water shot up from the lake surface straight into his hand.
And that wasn't all. The moment that column of water appeared in his hand, his whole body leaped up, drifting once more toward midair.
When his figure stopped and hovered in the air, the water column in his hand had already gone from the thickness of an arm to the thickness of a barrel.
Not only that, in just a few seconds that barrel‑thick water column swelled several times over. Just like that, under everyone's stunned gaze, the water level of the lake actually started dropping at a speed visible to the naked eye.
One centimeter, five centimeters, ten centimeters, half a meter, one meter.
As that surging water column continued, the water level of the entire lake began to plummet.
In just over ten minutes, more than half of the water had already disappeared.
The change was far too sudden, far too shocking. At this moment those Guards were completely scared dumb, and the weapons in their hands clattered to the ground.
There was nothing they could do; this was just too overwhelming for them.
This kind of thing, completely beyond their understanding, left them all dumbstruck, mouths hanging open in astonishment, yet not daring to make a sound, afraid that the slightest noise on their side would draw the other party's attention, anger him, and get themselves killed on the spot.
After all, against such a ruthless freak, there wasn't the slightest chance they could win.
Not only that, right now in their hearts they'd already cursed You Wang out a hundred times over.
Why in hell did you have to provoke an Immortal for no reason, isn't that just screwing us over?
If you want to die, fine, but why drag all of us down with you?
Of course, at this moment, what more people were thinking was that this time they were absolutely done for. They'd originally thought that hiding in the secret chamber at the bottom of the lake meant they wouldn't be discovered.
But they never imagined that the other side had barely shown up before he'd already discovered the secret beneath the lake. Not only that, he was now using divine powers, trying to drain the entire lake dry.
In that case, what's the point of hiding at the bottom of the lake?
Meanwhile Lin Yi, looking at the endlessly surging water column before him, couldn't help the slight curl of his lips, secretly marveling in his heart at how powerful his System Space was. It could actually take in this water with no limit, all of it stored inside the System Space.
Though the lake looked huge and the volume of water was enormous, at a mere thought from Lin Yi, the System Space immediately opened up a small pond inside that could hold this water, and the water was directly poured into that pond by him.
Of course, along with that water column, the fish inside were naturally sucked into his System Space as well.
Only, once those fish entered the System Space, they were no longer able to swim in the water as before, but instead lost their lives instantly.
After all, the System Space does not allow living creatures to exist. Precisely because of this, no matter how precious the fish were, once they reached Lin Yi they were all wasted.
But on this point, Lin Yi could do nothing. It really wasn't his fault—his hands were tied since the System Space didn't permit living beings.
On top of that, You Wang had already dived into the lake. If he didn't clear out this water, he wouldn't be able to drag that bastard out.
Nor could he quickly find where the passage here was hidden.
If that happened, a lot of time would be wasted, which would affect the impression he left in these people's hearts.
He knew that everything he displayed today would be spread around; this was also the time to prove his identity to everyone.
Therefore, there could not be the slightest mistake, not the slightest negligence.
Sure enough, after witnessing this scene, the expressions of the people around him were clearly reflected in his eyes; he saw them all.
Through his night‑vision device, seeing the utterly shocked faces of these guys, Lin Yi's smile grew even wider.
Of course, although there was a huge commotion on the surface, You Wang and the others at the bottom of the lake couldn't hear a thing.
The water itself blocked sound, and on top of that there was a thick layer of silt covering them, so inside the secret chamber it was extremely quiet.
Aside from the bound and constantly struggling, muffled sobbing 79th Concubine in the corner, there wasn't a sound.
It had already been quite a long time since You Wang had come down, and he couldn't help but turn his gaze to a Guard beside him, asking impatiently:
"How long has it been since we came out? Has it been half an hour yet?"
The Guard beside him, hearing this, immediately bowed and saluted, then hurriedly answered:
"Reporting to Your Highness, it should already have been half an hour. According to this slave's calculations, it should actually be more than half an hour by now, perhaps about another quarter of an hour on top of that. ."
At these words, the corners of You Wang's mouth couldn't help lifting slightly, and he burst into loud laughter:
"Hahahaha. Good, very good. Didn't that guy boast that he would find Us at once? He was still shouting, still so arrogant—come catch Us, then!
Hahaha, what a joke.
We're right here waiting, waiting for him to come and catch Us, but does he have that ability?
Hahaha, it's not like We didn't give him the chance; even given the chance, he's useless."
After that bout of arrogant laughter, he turned his gaze to the 79th Concubine, who was still sobbing in the corner, and suddenly he felt his interest rise.
Since Lin Yi hadn't found him for so long, he was now completely at ease in his heart.
At the same time, the look he gave the 79th Concubine carried a trace of something different.
"Men, bring her over to Us. Today We shall properly favor her, let her experience for herself who the real man is. ."
With his order, several of his subordinates immediately stepped forward, hoisted up the 79th Concubine who had been bound in the corner, and strode over to deliver her to You Wang.
After doing all this, they didn't linger in the slightest. Instead they all turned around in unison, eyes fixed on the wall.
As for what would happen next, it went without saying in their hearts.
It was just that, as Guards, there were some things they could not watch. Even if it happened right beside them, they had to close their eyes and block their ears.
Only like that could they keep their lives and livelihoods.
