That fellow, if he went mad, might indeed do such a thing.
If a person wasn't sufficiently insane, it would be absolutely impossible to achieve the transformation of killing intent into armor in just a few years.
He recalled that Zheng Aijia must have received a mission, one that absolutely required Lin Xiao to lose his sanity. The killing aura surrounding him was extremely unstable.
It was likely this order that directly pushed Lin Xiao into this state.
This was something far more difficult to achieve than a domain.
As for domains, they could manifest simply if one possessed talent and understanding.
However, this transformation of killing intent into armor was something anyone could accomplish, albeit with extremely harsh conditions. Those who could meet these conditions were historically renowned figures.
Xiang Yu, Bai Qi, Lü Bu... each of these names alone could shake the world.
Yet, in the past hundred years, the Dragon Country had not seen anyone achieve this transformation of killing intent into armor.
Lin Xiao had broken the mold.
It was worth noting that even within the Shadow organization, no one had achieved this.
They were all individuals who had walked the path of cultivation for decades, even a century, and yet they were surpassed by a junior like Lin Xiao?
This matter had to be reported to the boss, lest one day Lin Xiao discovered their Shadow headquarters and attacked it, leaving no room for mercy on either side.
The Shadow headquarters, even if the boss had instructed them to avoid making an enemy of Lin Xiao, did not mean they would allow Lin Xiao to leave unharmed if he attacked their headquarters.
That would be tantamount to the greatest insult to them.
Suddenly, his footsteps halted.
Outside the door of this small outpost, a guest had arrived.
Lin Xiao.
At this moment, he had not yet merged with the night. The black figure noticed that Lin Xiao had been staring at him the entire time.
But at this moment, Lin Xiao did not immediately attack.
"Lin Xiao."
He couldn't comprehend how Lin Xiao had managed to find his way here.
This place was one of their outposts. Apart from those within Shadow, no one had ever found them.
Yet, Lin Xiao had appeared here.
He must have used some method that was beyond the black figure's understanding.
"I don't intend to fight you today," Lin Xiao said, his gaze fixed on the silhouette. At this moment, a sense of calm prevailed, and rather than fighting, he was more eager to understand certain things.
Since this silhouette was unwilling to engage him, he wouldn't bother with fighting and killing.
It was better for everyone.
"What do you want to know?" As the silhouette spoke, he had already used their communication method to relay relevant information to the boss.
Lin Xiao had actually come to their outpost. Moreover, if he could find this outpost, it meant that after conversing with Lin Xiao here, he might even discover the location of their headquarters upon returning to the main base.
That would be the most troublesome situation.
"Since you claim that the downfall of the Lin family had nothing to do with you, then tell me, who was involved?" Lin Xiao asked, his gaze also falling on Di Qing inside. "Why are you protecting him? Who gave him that mission?"
He walked up to the silhouette, and a spirit stone appeared in his hand. "This is a trade."
Seeing the spirit stone of superior quality, the silhouette remained silent for a moment before replying, "It's indeed good to have a good relationship with the Sect of Artifacts."
