Lin Xiao spoke as if it were the truth, "My abilities aren't great. If I don't go all out, I'm afraid they'll kill me, so I had to use every means to resist. Who knew they were so weak... I promise, I won't cause casualties carelessly from now on!"
"We'll discuss it later."
The Dragon Lord hung up the phone.
Lin Xiao sighed. His plan had failed. Why were these cultivators so timid?
When would a big fish come for him to bully?
If he used this technique to absorb others' cultivation, he wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it. But if it were these cultivators, he wouldn't feel even a slightest bit of psychological burden if he absorbed all of them dry.
This was also for his Lin family's revenge.
"Since you won't tell me, I'll investigate myself."
Lin Xiao squinted. Besides the Dragon Lord, at least two other people knew the location of these cultivators.
...
"What... do you want?"
Zhang Wuwei looked at Lin Xiao, who had suddenly appeared in his humble Taoist temple.
This guy had bypassed the young Taoist boy at the front and arrived here out of nowhere. Had he found another enemy of his here?
He didn't recall anyone Lin Xiao was looking for among this batch of shadow assassins.
"Greetings, senior."
This time, Lin Xiao was proper, polite, and respectful. He cupped his hands, his expression solemn.
This made Zhang Wuwei feel even more unsettled.
"You already paid me last time. The temple here has been renovated. Why are you here?" Zhang Wuwei pretended not to see Lin Xiao's demeanor. Lin Xiao's current appearance seemed no better than when he barged in and acted wild last time, perhaps even more dangerous.
"Senior, it's like this."
Lin Xiao explained his purpose.
As soon as he finished, Zhang Wuwei pointed towards the temple entrance and said, "Go out, turn right, and scram."
"Senior, I can find them by going out and turning right? Is it that close?" Lin Xiao blinked, extremely surprised that Zhang Wuwei's small Taoist temple was so close to the cultivators?
"I mean, get lost!"
Zhang Wuwei said irritably, "If you want to go to your death, don't drag me down with you. If others know I told you the address, whether it's the Dragon Lord, my senior brother, or those cultivators, they'll all come looking for trouble with me."
"So, you know the address?"
Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't register anything else he said.
"You just don't listen to reason, do you?"
Zhang Wuwei rolled his eyes, then waved his hand, sending Lin Xiao's body outside the temple.
"Brother, don't cut in line."
The person behind Lin Xiao patted his shoulder.
Lin Xiao moved aside, and the next second, he re-entered the backyard.
"Senior."
Lin Xiao bowed, a ninety-degree bow, and said with a heavy tone, "This is a knot in my heart, something I can never let go of. My entire Lin family, all those people, died without a burial ground simply because of them. I can't swallow this rage."
"So you're going to throw your life away?"
Zhang Wuwei's broom stopped. He really wanted to sweep it across Lin Xiao's forehead.
"I'm not going to my death."
Lin Xiao said firmly, "I'm going to stir up heaven and earth. I'm going to let them know that I, Lin Xiao, will make them pay, that I will make their lives a living hell."
