Chapter 267: Chapter 267 Out of Proportion



Almost instantaneously, Lin Shen abandoned the idea of dodging and threw a punch towards Cosimo\'s palm.

With the enhancement of the Boundless Strength Contract, Lin Shen\'s strength had almost reached sixty, not inferior to a typical Ascender; even without using his innate skill, ordinary Ascenders couldn\'t deal with him.

But the moment his fist collided with Cosimo\'s palm, Lin Shen felt an enormous force attack him, a force he could not contend with.

Lin Shen hadn\'t used his full strength and immediately used the momentum to fly backwards.

It looked as if he had been slapped hundreds of meters away by Cosimo\'s palm, crashing directly into the sea.

Unfortunately, Lin Shen didn\'t know the technique of using force to neutralize force, and the power from Cosimo was too great; his entire arm felt almost as if it had been shattered, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Cosimo, that guy, must be a high-level ascender... If I knew the Ximen Swordsman\'s technique of using force to counteract force, I wouldn\'t have suffered this loss," Lin Shen assessed internally, thankful for his extraordinary recovery ability, as his injuries quickly healed.

Lin Shen also knew that the Ximen Swordsman\'s technique of using and counteracting force, aside from one\'s practiced skills, must also be supported by the Base Change Talent, otherwise it wouldn\'t be so freakish; just practicing it wouldn\'t have been enough.

Cosimo had punched Lin Shen and sent him flying but felt something was amiss.

Before he could figure out what was wrong, he saw an aircraft descend and land not far from him.

Seeing that aircraft, Cosimo immediately knew Lin Shen had intentionally let himself be hit, cursing internally, "What a sly and cunning rogue."

The door of the aircraft opened, and Tian Xun walked out.

"Star Lord..." Cosimo started to say something but was stopped by a gesture from Tian Xun.

Only the planetary ruler holds the title of Star Lord, and Tian Xun wasn\'t truly a Star Lord yet. As Giant Ring Star was still being pioneered, she only had control over the Star Belt.

Cosimo had used the title "Star Lord" directly to show his respect for her.

Tian Xun\'s gaze turned towards the sea, where she saw Lin Shen staggering up from the water, his clothes completely soaked and a trace of fresh blood at the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Lin Shen in such a state turned Cosimo\'s face green with frustration.

He knew that his palm strike must have hurt Lin Shen, but still, the carapace should have remained intact irrespective of the injury.

Lin Shen being shaken up to the point of losing his carapace was sheer acting, obviously to make Tian Xun witness his miserable condition.

"This deceitful creature..." Cosimo now only regretted that his palm strike hadn\'t been lethal, that he hadn\'t used his full power to kill Lin Shen.

If he knew the fresh blood at the corner of Lin Shen\'s mouth wasn\'t caused by his strike but from Lin Shen biting his own tongue, he might have been even angrier.

Lin Shen staggered out, then plonked down on the beach, struggling several times without being able to stand up.

"You\'re acting... Keep acting..." Cosimo coldly watched Lin Shen, not believing Lin Shen could do much to him.

No matter what, the Metichi Family was a partner of Tian Xun, and she was unlikely to cross the Metichi Family over such a cur who had fled the Human Mother Planet.

"Lin Shen, what happened here?" Tian Xun asked knowingly.

"Star Lord..." Cosimo opened his mouth to speak again, but a look from Tian Xun stopped him, and he swallowed his words back down.

"Star Lord, I really don\'t know what happened. This man came here to seize the island you gave me. I refused, and he tried to kill me...cough cough..." Lin Shen spoke while feigning coughing up blood. Unfortunately, he had only bitten his tongue slightly, and no blood came out, so no matter how much he coughed, nothing came.

"Cosimo, is that so?" Tian Xun turned to Cosimo and asked.

"Star Lord, he\'s lying. As a member of the same race, I came just to see him and talk about our hometown. I didn\'t mean anything by it—I just wanted to look after him on account of our shared heritage. But he was insolent, and I only taught him a lesson," Cosimo said.

"Star Lord, please see clearly...cough cough...on this ring island you bestowed upon me, I was beaten to this state...cough cough...please, Star Lord, do justice for me...cough cough..." Lin Shen coughed desperately, not caring whether he could cough up blood or not; the atmosphere had to be set right.

Cosimo wanted to say something but was stopped by Tian Xun.

Tian Xun said indifferently, "Cosimo, no matter your reasons, this is not your ring island, and the injured person is not you."

"Star Lord..."

"He is my guest, and the ring island was my gift to him. Are you slapping his face, or are you slapping my face?" When Cosimo still tried to justify himself, Tian Xun\'s expression cooled.

Cosimo\'s face changed drastically, and he quickly gave a respectful gesture, "Please don\'t misunderstand, Star Lord. The Metichi Family has always been loyal to you, and would never dare to offend you in any way, it truly was a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding or not, you injured him. You owe him an apology," Tian Xun said with a cold look at Cosimo.

Cosimo\'s face turned extremely sour, apologizing to Lin Shen was something he just couldn\'t bring himself to accept.

"What? Is my guest, Tian Xun\'s guest, not even worth an apology from you, the Metichi Family?" There was no longer any expression on Tian Xun\'s face.

Seeing that Tian Xun seemed genuinely angry, Cosimo dared not say anything further; he turned to Lin Shen and said, "Lin Shen, my apologies, it was all a misunderstanding earlier. I didn\'t mean it. Just say whatever compensation you want."

"Is that how the Metichi Family teaches you to apologize? The Celestial Race doesn\'t have such manners." Before Lin Shen could say anything, Tian Xun\'s icy voice rang out again.

Feeling the chill in Tian Xun\'s eyes, Cosimo no longer dared to treat the matter lightly. He bowed deeply to Lin Shen with clenched teeth: "I\'m sorry, it was my fault."

"You may go, and don\'t ever set foot on Ocean Heaven Island again." Tian Xun waved his hand, signaling Cosimo to leave, as if he couldn\'t bear to look at him any longer, almost with disgust.

Without daring to say another word, Cosimo bowed and left, boarding his flying machine. As he was leaving, he gave Lin Shen a look that clearly held no goodwill.

"Now that he\'s gone, why are you still putting on an act?" Tian Xun looked at Lin Shen, who was still coughing and sitting in the sand, and sneered.

"Did you come here to talk to me about the Twenty-Eight Fists?" Lin Shen had no choice but to stand up and brush the sand off his body.

"What, after all I\'ve done for you, not even a word of thanks?" Tian Xun looked at him with a half-smile.

"You did help me, that\'s true, but this grudge has landed on my head now." Lin Shen didn\'t know if Tian Xun was taking the opportunity to suppress the Metichi Family or if he intentionally made Cosimo bear a grudge against him, forcing him to follow Tian Xun with no other paths available.

No matter the situation, Lin Shen felt he didn\'t need to thank Tian Xun.

"Are you afraid?" Tian Xun, far from being angry at having his thoughts revealed, actually laughed.

"Indeed, I am a bit scared. You know I had to flee because I couldn\'t make it on the Human Mother Planet. I\'ve only just arrived at Giant Ring Star not long ago, and now I\'ve offended the Metichi Family, whose power is not weaker than the Wan Family. I really fear that I will not have a place to stand here in the future," Lin Shen said.

"As long as you follow me wholeheartedly, you have nothing to fear," Tian Xun said lightly.
