Chapter 62

Jian Feng exuded a powerful aura. He stood with Ning Yue and Ding An, the three of them radiating strong auras that pressed down on Lin Tian.

The three of them took up positions, surrounding Lin Tian in the center.

"I've killed beasts comparable to the Divine Pulse Realm. What are you?"

Lin Tian said indifferently.

Jian Feng and the other two snorted coldly, naturally not believing him.

"Boastful!"

"Stop talking nonsense. If we drag this on too long, it will be troublesome if someone discovers us."

"Kill him as quickly as possible!"

The three of them had cold expressions.

The sound of metal clashing filled the air, with the sounds of guns, swords, and knives intertwining, powerful true essence energy spreading around.

"The sword in his hand is a mid-grade spirit weapon, much stronger than your weapons. Don't clash head-on," Jian Feng said solemnly. "I'll charge forward and suppress him with my spirit spear. You two attack from the sides!"

"Alright!"

Ning Yue and Ding An nodded.

True essence energy surged, and the next moment, the three of them pressed towards Lin Tian.

Jian Feng wielded his long spear, his movements fluid, shooting out a sky full of spear light.

"High-grade Body Tempering martial technique, Mystic Cloud Spear Technique, try this!"

Jian Feng said coldly.

Lin Tian was unperturbed, raising his long sword and slashing forward.

"Moon-Breaking Sword!"

"Thousand Spirit Blade!"

At this moment, two more voices sounded from the left and right.

Ning Yue and Ding An attacked, their auras slightly weaker than Jian Feng's but not by much.

Clearly, both of them had displayed high-grade Body Tempering martial techniques!

"Go back!"

Lin Tian said coldly.

His long sword flipped and turned, the Wind-Sweeping Sword Technique clearly unleashed.

"Clang!"

A piercing sword cry echoed through the sky, this sword strike stronger and faster than the previous one, with more sword shadows.

Jian Feng was pushed back, the dense sword shadows colliding with the light of Ding An and Ning Yue's blades and swords, all shattering simultaneously.

"Wind-Sweeping Sword Technique? You actually broke through our high-grade Body Tempering martial techniques. Could it be that... you have perfected this sword technique?"

Ding An's face changed. The Wind-Sweeping Sword Technique, which no one could master, was displaying such terrifying power in Lin Tian's hands.

A cold snort sounded, and Lin Tian stepped forward, dashing towards Ding An like lightning.

"Your opponent is me!"

Jian Feng flashed, his spirit weapon aiming at Lin Tian.

"Fire Fist! Get out of the way!"

With a cold snort, the sky was filled with brilliant firelight.

"Trivial tricks!"

Jian Feng said coldly, the Mystic Cloud Spear Technique breaking all the fire fists.

But at that moment, Lin Tian had already disappeared from his sight, his speed like a ghost.

At that moment, four cold words echoed.

"Lightning Sword!"

Resembling lightning, a beam of light cut through the space.

With a crack, behind Jian Feng, Ding An's dual-bladed sword broke, his body still in the posture of swinging his sword, but a glaring blood mark appeared on his neck, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

The Lightning Sword, swift as thunder, was a one-hit kill!

With the Two-Aspect Steps reaching the second level, Lin Tian's speed was even faster, and the use of the Lightning Sword Technique became more proficient.

One strike, and he cut down the eighth-level Body Tempering Ding An.

Jian Feng, Ning Yue, and Xiao Yun all changed color.

"What are you doing! Five people working together, and you can't even kill someone of a lower realm!"

Xiao Yun screeched.

Lin Tian's consecutive kills made her feel afraid.

"Relax! We've been paid, so we'll definitely take care of it for you!"

Jian Feng said solemnly.

"Going to hell to take care of it?"

Lin Tian smiled faintly, his figure flashing, approaching Jian Feng like a fleeting shadow.

Still five meters away, he leaped up, his Return Origin Sword slashing out countless silver sword auras, each containing the power of the Wind-Sweeping Sword Technique, the sword cries piercing.

Jian Feng was moved, quickly retreating while meeting with his spear.

"Good opportunity! Ning Yue, attack!"

Jian Feng shouted.

"Thousand Spirit Blade!"

A cold shout sounded, taking advantage of Lin Tian's inability to exert force in mid-air, Ning Yue attacked from the other side.

Lin Tian's expression remained unchanged, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"I've been waiting for you."

Pulling back the sword aimed at Jian Feng, Lin Tian, in mid-air, kicked with his right foot, spinning and forcing Ning Yue with even greater speed, the Return Origin Sword slashing mercilessly.

"Lightning Sword!"

With a "pu" sound, blood splattered, Ning Yue's throat was pierced.

Landing on the ground, Lin Tian turned to face Jian Feng.

"You..."

Jian Feng's face turned pale, taking a step back.

"Kill!"

Jian Feng roared, a stronger aura bursting from his body, his spirit spear used like a club, spear light filling the sky, striking towards Lin Tian and stirring up dust.

Lin Tian's long sword flipped, a single strike shattering all the spear light.

A whistling sound broke the air, and Lin Tian looked up, suddenly stunned.

He saw that after unleashing a powerful strike, Jian Feng had turned and fled, heading towards the Wu Mansion.

"Can you escape!"

Lin Tian sneered.

His figure flashed, the Two-Aspect Steps unfolding, and in just a few breaths, he caught up with Jian Feng.

"Clang!"

A sword light fell, striking in front of Jian Feng.

Lin Tian flashed to the side, kicking Jian Feng in the chest, sending him flying back.

Falling to the ground with a thud, Jian Feng coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Lin Tian, holding the Return Origin Sword, approached step by step.

"Brother Lin, show mercy!"

Jian Feng called out.

"Show mercy? Give me a reason to show mercy."

Lin Tian narrowed his eyes.

Jian Feng trembled, taking out a gold card: "Aren't you short of money? There are 200,000 spirit coins in here. We can split it... no, all of it is yours! All of it! Just spare my life!"

"Killing you, this thing will naturally be mine."

Lin Tian said indifferently.

Jian Feng's face turned white, his body shaking. After a moment, he quickly said: "You and the Xiao family have a grudge, right? If you don't kill me, I'll give you the spirit coins, and I'll help you deal with the Xiao family in the future. I'm at the eighth level of Body Tempering, and having someone like me help you would be a great asset, right?"

In the distance, Xiao Yun's face changed.

"Jian Feng, what are you saying! We paid you, and you're acting like this!"

Xiao Yun screeched.

Jian Feng's face was pale, unable to hear Xiao Yun's words, only pleadingly looking at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian narrowed his eyes, also looking at Jian Feng.

After a moment, he smiled, extending his left hand towards Jian Feng.

Jian Feng rejoiced, quickly extending his right hand to grasp Lin Tian's left hand.

"Pu!"

A sharp pain came, and Jian Feng looked down to see Lin Tian's long sword piercing his chest.

"You... you..."

Staring at Lin Tian, Jian Feng's eyes bulged wide.

"I'm quite curious, why did you grab my hand?"

Lin Tian said, narrowing his eyes.

Jian Feng spat out a mouthful of blood, the light in his eyes quickly fading, his head tilting to the side, and he died. Even in death, his eyes remained wide open.

Lin Tian pulled out the Return Origin Sword, turned, and approached Xiao Yun.

Seeing Lin Tian coming, Xiao Yun was terrified.

"You... don't come closer! Stop!"

Retreating in a panic, Xiao Yun trembled, taking out a Fusion Martial Pattern Scroll from her chest: "This is a treasure my father bought from the Treasure Exchange Pavilion! It's a Fusion Martial Pattern Scroll made by a second-rank array master. If you come any closer, I'll open the scroll, and you'll surely die!"

Lin Tian stopped, then burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing about!"

Xiao Yun shouted.

Lin Tian finally stopped laughing, approaching Xiao Yun again.

"Quite unfortunate, the second-rank array master you mentioned is me."

He said with a faint smile.

Xiao Yun's face changed dramatically.

"You... what did you say?!"

Her lips trembling, Xiao Yun felt as if she had heard the most terrifying thing in the world.

"Didn't understand? Well, let me demonstrate for free." He extended his left hand, and a faint soul force surged, causing the Fusion Martial Pattern Scroll in Xiao Yun's hand to glow, scaring her into throwing it away. Almost instantly, dense sword auras scattered, shattering several large rocks nearby.

"You, how... how..."

Staring at Lin Tian again, Xiao Yun's eyes were full of fear.

"Since I made it, naturally, I can control it better." Lin Tian smiled wickedly. "Speaking of which, I should thank your father for spending 60,000 spirit coins on my creation." He continued, his face turning slightly cold: "But, this money originally belonged to the Lin family!"

Xiao Yun's face turned deathly pale, trembling uncontrollably: "How... how is this possible..."

Xiao Yun never imagined that Lin Tian, who was weak and sickly a few months ago, had not only become a genius with nine-star talent, entered the Nine Yang Martial Mansion, and ranked second in the outer mansion, but was also a second-rank array master! A second-rank array master! This was enough to make the entire Xiao family fear and dread. The man they and the entire Xiao family once looked down upon had grown to this point!

"Let me tell you one more surprising thing..." Lin Tian came to Xiao Yun's side and said: "The property deeds of the Lin family that your family deceived from us, as well as your family's own property deeds, are now in my hands. You understand what I mean, right? I can destroy your Xiao family at any time and make all of you homeless."

"What are you saying?!" Xiao Yun exclaimed: "Impossible! The Xiao family is so well-guarded, how could you possibly enter without being discovered?! Moreover, the old house is the most secure, with over a dozen locks and guards outside. Even if you could open the locks, you would certainly alert the guards! You're lying!"

"Lying?" Lin Tian sneered: "That night, when you and your father, Xiao Nan, were plotting to kill me with 500,000 spirit coins, I was outside the house and heard everything. Of course, I didn't expect you to spend an extra 100,000 spirit coins. Do you still think I'm lying?"

"You..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yun's face changed completely.

At this moment, Xiao Yun was truly afraid, trembling all over. Was the Xiao family about to be finished?!

"Clang!"

The sound of a sword cry made Xiao Yun shudder again.

"Wait! Don't, don't kill me!" Xiao Yun begged, her eyes full of fear, trembling: "I... I was just confused for a moment. Brother Tian, please, for the sake of our past, please spare me. As long as you don't kill me, I'll do anything you want, even... even that kind of thing, whenever and wherever you want!"

Looking at Lin Tian, Xiao Yun's eyes were full of fear, making a sobbing and crying face.

"Brother Tian?" Lin Tian's face was full of sarcasm: "Shut your filthy mouth! Don't call me that, it's disgusting! A woman like you, even a sow is better than you."

"I..."

"Pu!"

Lin Tian unsheathed his sword mercilessly, blood splattering, and Xiao Yun's head flew off.
