Lin Xiao, who had a good business deal with Shen Si, was very happy. He even had a drink with his family at night.
Even so, Lin Xiao still did not dare to sleep and could only stay on the roof to take a nap.
That was because he was the only grandmaster in the Lin family now.
If Lin Xiao fell asleep, then no one would know that Lin Zhennan, his wife, and Lin Pingzhi had been kidnapped by an expert.
As for the escorts patrolling the Lin family?
Haha!
Those escorts relied on their numbers to defend against experts below the grandmaster realm. If it was a grandmaster realm expert, they would not be able to discover it at all.
Therefore, Lin Xiao could only work hard for a period of time.
Not only that, but today, the people from the Shifting Flower Palace, the Money Gang, and the World's Greatest Manor had brazenly come to visit the Lin family. The various large factions must have already discovered it.
If the Lin Family were to join the Shifting Flower Palace, the Money Gang, or any of the forces in The World's Greatest Manor, then the Lin Family would have a backer.
At that time, it would be impossible for them to openly attack the Lin family.
Although he could achieve his goal secretly, he would not be able to use the Evil-Warding Sword Manual openly.
Otherwise, they would have to face the revenge of the Shifting Flower Palace, the Money Gang, or The Best Manor.
Therefore, Lin Xiao determined that those who had designs on the Evil-Warding Sword Manual would definitely make their move tonight.
As expected, just as the clock struck midnight, a weak voice rang out.
Lin Xiao opened his eyes and said indifferently," As expected, tonight is not destined to be peaceful!
Thief! Since you're here, let me send you on your way!”
Although Lin Xiao's voice was calm, it spread throughout the entire Lin family with the support of internal strength.
Immediately, a hunched figure flew out of the Lin family's house from the roof.
Lin Xiao captured the aura on the other party's body and said coldly,"A mere peak Connate realm dares to barge into my Lin family?"
You can stay!"
At the same time as he finished speaking, Lin Xiao's body was like a ghost. In an instant, he arrived behind the hunchbacked person.
The next moment, Lin Xiao unsheathed his sword and slashed at the man's neck.
However, at this moment, a cold mechanical notification sounded.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for picking up Shadow Sword Technique experience. Shadow Sword Technique experience 500!”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for picking up the experience points of the Purple Cloud Divine Technique. The experience points of the Purple Cloud Divine Technique 800!”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for picking up internal strength, internal strength 800!”
…………
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for learning the Shadow Sword Technique. Current progress: Beginner. Next level up requires 400/200 experience points!”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking through to the Beginner's level of Shadow Sword Technique. The next level up requires 200/400 experience points!”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking through to the first level of the Violet Cloud Divine Art. The next advancement will require 300/1000 experience points!”
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for breaking through to Xiantian fourth stage. The next level up requires 200/5000 internal strength!”
Lin Xiao listened to the series of system notifications and thought to himself,
"This Yue Buqun really put in a lot of effort.
In order not to be recognized, he actually pretended to be hunchbacked.
It's really high!"
"No! Yue Buqun was a grandmaster, but this hunchback was only at the peak of the Xiantian Realm!!”
At the thought of this, alarm bells rang in Lin Xiao's heart, and his eyes could not help but look around.
In an instant, a sword light that was close at hand appeared in Lin Xiao's vision.
"There's no way to dodge now. The only way is to take it head-on!!”
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao circulated the Iron Skin Technique to the extreme. Even the long sword in his hand was 30% faster because he circulated it with all his strength.
In the next moment, Lin Xiao's sword slashed across the back of the hunchbacked figure's neck.
In an instant, a head flew into the sky.
At the same time, the sword light landed on Lin Xiao's neck.
"Clang!"
Immediately, the sound of metal clashing rang out, and a trace of pain assaulted Lin Xiao's heart.
"Fortunately, I cultivate a defensive martial art like the Iron Skin Technique and my cultivation has reached Zongshi realm 4-dan.
Otherwise, I'll die today!!”Lin Xiao secretly rejoiced in his heart,
Although Lin Xiao was rejoicing in his heart, his hand movements were not slow.
Lin Xiao threw a backhand punch at the black-robed man.
Not only did Lin Xiao use his full strength in this punch, but he also added the Ancestral Fist Intent.
It could be said that this punch was Lin Xiao's strongest attack at the moment.
"Clang!"
The fist collided with the long sword, and the black-robed man used the force to retreat.
In just a moment, the black-clothed man had pulled more than a hundred meters away from Lin Xiao.
"Trying to escape?
Stay here!" Lin Xiao sneered,
As he spoke, Lin Xiao chased after the man in black.
After chasing for a hundred meters, Lin Xiao stopped.
Because he was the only Grandmaster in the Lin family, Lin Xiao was worried that this was a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain!
For the safety of his family, Lin Xiao had no choice but to stop chasing.
More importantly, Lin Xiao already knew the identity of the man in black, so he was not in a hurry to take revenge.
Alright then! These were all Lin Xiao's self-comforting words.
The real reason why Lin Xiao gave up chasing was that he could not catch up.
That's right! Lin Xiao, a fourth firmament Zongshi expert, actually couldn't catch up to Yue Buqun, that second firmament Zongshi.
This made Lin Xiao speechless.
"It seems that I have to find a way to cultivate a good qinggong to a higher level in the future.
Otherwise, if the enemy wants to escape, I won't be able to catch up!!”Lin Xiao thought to himself,
