Chapter 167

The sea breeze rustled through the dense jungle, sounding as though the island were softly humming a mysterious ballad. Xu Lin was like a god of death concealed within the dark, hiding quietly amidst the thick foliage. His figure blended seamlessly with the surrounding environment, and only his eyes, flashing with a cold glint in the dimness, betrayed his presence. Right now, he was fully focused on observing every move the pirates made, like a leopard waiting for its prey to slip up. At the slightest opportunity, he would strike like lightning, mercilessly harvesting these men's lives. The group of pirates was currently as tense as if facing a formidable enemy. Their eyes were wide, darting about wildly like alert beasts, scanning their surroundings. Every face was written with terror and unease, and beads of sweat stood out on their foreheads, gleaming crystal-clear in the moonlight. They tried to pick out Xu Lin's figure in the vast, boundless dark, yet the surroundings held only endless gloom and silence, as if Xu Lin had merged with the night and vanished without a trace.
