Regardless of whether it was the Qi Mountain County or the various families and families of the other counties, after everyone knew that the legendary master of the Great Abyss wanted to attack the Lin family, no one felt that the Lin family could defeat such an existence. There were even fewer people who felt that the Lin family could escape death.
Some of the wealthy families and some large factions in Qi Mountain County had started to distance themselves from the Lin family and secretly planned to draw the line with them. This was not because they were disloyal, but in this situation, it was the only choice. This was because the Lin family would definitely not win in the battle with the master of the abyss, and they had no room to resist.
…
Snowflakes fluttered in the wind. On the peak of the mountain, snow danced in the wind. On a huge rock, an old man was sitting cross-legged.
A whistling wind blew past, and black lotuses floated around the old man. When the wind and snow were three thousand meters away from the old man, they had already lost all their strength, and they reduced and dispersed. Moreover, his surroundings had formed a vacuum.
As the old man breathed, he felt as if a profound mystery of the world was brewing.
After a long time, the old man opened his eyes. His pupils were dark green, like emeralds in the darkness or irises of wild beasts like snakes. They were vertical pupils that were suffused with cold and indifferent killing intent.
“What happened?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared on the top of the mountain. The figure knelt on one knee and said respectfully, “Ancestor, you sent the family head to assassinate the Lin family’s Saint Child. We’ve already received news of the result.”
The Wang family’s ancestor slowly raised his head. As he breathed, countless spiritual qi circled around.
“What’s the outcome? Is the Lin family’s Saint Child dead?”
The person kneeling on one knee was a little afraid. He stammered and did not dare to answer for a long time.
“I don’t have much patience.” The Wang family’s ancestor’s eyes turned cold.
The secret agent could only grit his teeth and say, “Ancestor, the family head’s assassination failed. The Lin family seems to have expected this and made thorough preparations…”
“…The Family Head and the elders have already…”
“…All of them died!”
Just as the agent finished speaking, he discovered a terrifying fluctuation erupting from the Wang family’s ancestor. An earth-shattering pressure emitted from his body. The surrounding flying snow turned to dust, and the white clouds in the sky dissipated. The black-robed spy was sent flying directly and crashed into a rock. He had broken a few bones and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
However, before the black-robed secret agent could wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, he heard a whistling sound. Before he could recover, he was grabbed by the Wang family’s ancestor. The Wang family’s ancestor’s claw-like hand tightened around his neck. His tone was extremely angry, and his eyes were as cold as ten thousand-year-old ice.
“Say that again?”
“Although Wang Gankun is useless, he’s still at the Purple Prefecture Realm! Coupled with several assassins who can fight above their realms, how can he be defeated so easily and even die?”
“With such a powerful lineup, not to mention assassinating a Lin family’s Saint Child, even if they faced Ancestor Lin, they should be able to retreat safely!”
At the end of the Wang family’s ancestor’s words, he could no longer endure his anger. His voice turned into a sound wave that shook the black-robed secret agent to the point he spat out blood.
“Ancestor… wait a moment… There’s still a video stone sent back…” The secret agent had already stopped breathing and was on the brink of death. He could only barely hand the round video stone in his hand to the Wang family’s ancestor.
The Wang Family’s Old Ancestor’s face was cold. He was almost about to crush the video stone, but he barely restrained himself and activated it. With a swoosh, a light screen appeared in front of him.
The scene in this light screen was exactly the scene of Wang Gankun and the others’ violent assassination earlier. In this light screen, Lin Xuan did not appear, and even Lin Hao and Xuan Yu did not appear. These were all the scenes of Wang Gankun and the others being suppressed and killed!
Looking at the light screens in front of him, the Wang family’s ancestor’s breathing became heavy. The killing intent in his eyes was already difficult to restrain. Invisible wind blades appeared around him and directly cut everything in his surroundings into pieces.
Boom! After the last scene of the light screen was played, the Wang family’s ancestor had already crushed the video stone in his hand into pieces. In the sky, the clouds dispersed, and a hole that could peer into the starry sky was directly blasted open!
“How are the Lin family members so powerful?”
“Moreover, I see that Ancestor Lin’s strength has become even stronger. He’s completely unlike before. It’s only been a few days since we last met! Could it be that he has encountered a fortuitous encounter? Could it be that he can really step into the legendary realm?”
“This is definitely impossible! Even if anyone wants to enter that realm, it’s definitely me, not him!”
The Wang family’s ancestor was furious and jealous. He was so angry that his beard and hair blew up. This time, their Wang family could be said to have suffered a huge loss. They had originally thought that it was a slightly risky assassination, but they did not expect it to end up like this?
“Ancestor, actually… yesterday… cough cough cough… there was another piece of good news…”
The black-robed agent was already heavily injured and his life was in danger. He could only barely speak.
“Yesterday, the master of the Great Abyss from the Ancient Forbidden Ground announced that he wanted to fight to the death with the Lin family and destroy them all!”
What? Hearing what the agent said, the Wang family’s ancestor was first stunned. Then, his vertical pupils stared intently at the black-robed spy, and his tone was cold, “Don’t play tricks in front of me, or you know the consequences.”
“I wouldn’t dare!”
Only then did the Wang family’s ancestor slightly restrain his killing intent. The body of the black-robed spy who thought that he had found a chance to live trembled as he hurriedly explained everything he knew.
When he heard this news, the Wang family’s ancestor’s cold expression eased a little, but his eyes emitted a glow. The Wang family’s ancestor did not care about the half-dead black-robed agent. He directly rubbed his chin and paced around the mountain peak in thought.
“I see. The master of the Great Abyss actually wants to destroy the Lin family. Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
The black-robed agent, who no longer had any strength, hurriedly knelt on the ground and said with a trembling voice, “I deserve to die!”
The Wang family’s ancestor stared at the black-robed spy for a long time. Only when he was about to faint did he look away.
“That’s good news, that’s good news!”
The Wang Family’s Old Ancestor faced the sky and laughed loudly, his eyes filled with brilliance, “I’ll remember you. What’s your name?”
“I am Wang Hui.” The black-robed agent trembled.
“Go get your reward!” The Wang family’s ancestor directly waved his sleeve and pulled that agent down the mountain, not caring if he was dead or alive.
“Alright, Lin family, you’re done for now! Although you killed my family’s elites, you can’t escape even with the Saint Child!”
“Even if you hand over your family’s Saint Child, the master of the Great Abyss will probably not let your Lin family off!”
