"Yes!"
Zhu Guangyu said, pulling out his handgun and aiming it at the leader of the Jile Sect. He swallowed, knowing he wasn't Lin Xiao. Even Mingyi was stronger than him, and he was among the lower ranks in the Dragon King Army, which was why he had been reassigned back to the mainland. Therefore, he was understandably cautious when facing the leader of the Jile Sect.
However, he wasn't afraid. With Brother Xiao by his side, he feared nothing.
Years of working together had taught him to simply do as Lin Xiao instructed.
A handgun?
At this distance, he felt the handgun in his hand was less useful than a dagger.
But he had no other weapon on him, only this.
"You, want to capture me?"
The sect leader looked at Zhu Guangyu, a sneer on his face. He showed no panic, instead reaching out. His hand was once again encased in ice crystals. "Try me?"
"You intend to resist?" Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow. "If you truly force me to bully an elder, I will intervene."
Lin Xiao's constant talk of respecting the young and the old, and of bullying elders, greatly displeased the sect leader.
He looked no older than twenty or thirty, yet this person was calling him an elder?!
He would not allow it!
He knew how much he had sacrificed and how long he had schemed to reach this point!
"You, who exactly are you? You're not from the Ning family… He's Mingyi, so who are you? Why do you know one of the Ning family's three techniques? You… why do you have such achievements at such a young age?" the sect leader asked, voicing his confusion.
At this age and with such skill, he refused to believe he was from the Ning family.
Throughout history, those who achieved such feats had always emerged from "that place."
"Lin family."
Lin Xiao announced his lineage. "However, I am the only one left in the Lin family now."
"Lin family… no wonder. Yes, a descendant of that one… Such prowess does not disgrace that one's legacy. A pity… old ginger is spicier." As the sect leader spoke, a vast expanse of ice surged towards Lin Xiao and the others, originating from him.
Had he not been worried about harming the baby in the car, he would have enveloped the entire vehicle.
But he had sensed the baby inside, and knowing the father was an ordinary person, he paid it little mind. An ordinary person with a child could not escape him even if he let them.
"I notice you all like to strike first," Lin Xiao said calmly, observing the sect leader's actions.
These members of the Jile Sect truly knew their limits, understanding that if they didn't act immediately, they would lose any chance to act at all.
Therefore, Lin Xiao would give them a fitting response.
He took a step.
The ground seemed to tremble.
"Could it be a landslide?" Hu Zhicheng, sitting in the car, felt the tremors and was immediately concerned.
The next second, the ice crystals that had not yet reached Lin Xiao dissolved into a flurry of frozen shards.
"This is your last chance." Lin Xiao's clothes rippled violently with the surge of his true qi. Under the blood moon, he resembled a newly awakened demon, his eyes gleaming. The difference was, the light in his eyes was golden. "Either surrender and confess, or…"
"I'll beat you to your knees to confess."
