199: Chapter 199 Swift Actions, Qiao Nana Arrested

Xiao Baichi, the Head of the Xiao Family, suddenly knelt before Lin Yuan. The onlookers gasped in surprise, as they couldn't sense even a shred of pressure.

"Head of the Xiao Family, why are you kneeling? Get up quickly and kill this kid!"

"Head of the Xiao Family, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep shaking? You are a Mystic Realm Fourth Level powerhouse; kneeling before a young man like this, where is your dignity?"

"Head of the Xiao Family, say something! You're completely throwing away the face of our Four Great Families!"

...

Hearing the accusations from the surrounding crowd, Xiao Baichi was about to explode with rage. This bunch of ignorant fools—couldn't they see he couldn't move? Couldn't they see he couldn't even speak?

"Young Master, you truly weren't mistaken. This Lin Yuan's strength is terrifying; even I felt a tremor in my heart. If it came to blows, even this old servant wouldn't dare say I could take him down. The Four Great Families of Tianxing City have truly kicked a steel plate this time."

Steward Wang offered his shocked evaluation, leaving Wan Feiyu stunned. Wasn't he at the third level of the Profound Mystery Realm? Why was a fourth level now kneeling directly, and even Uncle Wang, who was at the seventh level, said he might not be able to take him down?

Was this still the Brother Lin he had befriended? How was it that after just over a day, he found himself even less able to see through this young man?

However, facts proved that his decision was wise. In the future, he had to cling tightly to Lin Yuan's thigh; Lin Yuan was destined to become a peerless powerhouse who would suppress the starry skies.

At that moment, Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Baichi before him and withdrew his pressure. Xiao Baichi immediately felt his body lighten and hurriedly kowtowed three times with heavy thuds.

"Lord Lin, my Xiao Family... admits defeat!" Xiao Baichi said helplessly.

The crowd at the scene immediately erupted, and various angry curses rose one after another...

"Xiao Baichi! You're a damn disgrace! Our Four Great Families don't have spineless cowards like you!"

"The Xiao Family calls itself the number one family, bah! With such a cowardly head, how do you have the nerve to call yourselves number one?"

"Family Head! Get up quickly! Stop embarrassing our Xiao Family!!!"

...

Xiao Baichi was furious and turned back to curse:

"All of you shut your mouths! You ignorant fools, what do you know?! Lord Lin is such a powerhouse, how can you be so impudent?!"

The cursing didn't help; instead, it made the crowd even more agitated.

"To hell with you! Don't listen to this coward. Let's all attack together and kill that little beast on the spot!!"

"Kill!!"

Seeing the crowd pounce toward Lin Yuan, Xiao Baichi's heart turned cold.

Lin Yuan slowly raised his right hand and pushed it out lightly. In the air, a massive silver palm print suddenly took shape.

The next moment, it collided with the forces of the Four Great Families.

Bang!!

Pfft...!!

Instantly, dozens of people fell to the ground, vomiting their internal organs everywhere, and then fell silent.

The dozen or so clan members who had run slowly and hadn't rushed to the front stood dumbfounded, staring blankly at the corpses covering the ground. A chill ran from the soles of their feet straight to the crowns of their heads...

"You didn't listen to me, and now? You're all dead, all dead and gone..." Xiao Baichi muttered to himself, looking as if he had lost his mind.

The next moment.

The spirit-extinguishing bone-corroding sword appeared in his hand. Lin Yuan swung the sword without hesitation, and a Profound Mystery Dimensional Slash cut through the void.

Xiao Baichi, along with the dozen or so clan members behind him, instantly turned into fly ash and dissipated into the void.

Lin Yuan opened his mouth and inhaled, and the soul bodies drifting in the space were swallowed by him. His transcendent points immediately accumulated to 60.

Having done all this, Lin Yuan put away the spirit-extinguishing bone-corroding sword and looked toward Wan Feiyu.

Wan Feiyu and Steward Wang were already in a daze, not because of how terrifying Lin Yuan's strength was, but because of his decisiveness in killing.

These were over a hundred people from the Four Great Families, and he had slaughtered them just like that? Moreover, his expression hadn't changed at all. It was simply terrifying...

"Brother Wan, my apologies for making a mess of your territory."

Lin Yuan cupped his fists toward Wan Feiyu and spoke with some embarrassment.

"Uh... ah? No matter, no matter. Brother Lin is too polite. It's just the ground; I'll have someone clean it up..."

Wan Feiyu snapped out of it and hurriedly waved his hand.

"In that case, Brother Wan, I shall take my leave first. I need to return to Linggu Village to arrange some matters," Lin Yuan said, cupping his fists.

"Good, good. Brother Lin, please go ahead. I'll wait for you here. Once you've arranged everything, we can discuss our future cooperation," Wan Feiyu returned the gesture.

Lin Yuan nodded understandingly. It seemed Wan Feiyu also knew who he should do business with from now on.

After Lin Yuan left, Steward Wang frowned slightly and said, "Young Master, the sky over Tianxing City is likely about to change."

"Let it change. Change is good. Not just Tianxing City, but in the near future, the sky over the Starfire Star Alliance might also change..." Wan Feiyu said with some awe.

...

When Lin Yuan stepped out of the portal, he was already standing at the entrance of the village chief's house. He walked straight into the courtyard and pushed open the door.

Inside the room, Qiao De and Tian Hao were restless and looking anxious.

Seeing Lin Yuan enter, Qiao De looked as if he had caught a life-saving straw. He took two steps to Lin Yuan and was about to kneel, but Lin Yuan supported him.

"Village Chief, don't be in such a hurry. Tell me first, what happened?"

Lin Yuan asked with a frown. With the cooperation with the Wan Family, there shouldn't have been anyone blind enough to cause trouble.

For a moment, Qiao De was too anxious to speak, so Tian Hao, who was beside him, explained the situation.

Just a short while ago, Sun Qian had proposed to Qiao Nana, but Qiao Nana had rejected him without hesitation.

But Sun Qian wouldn't give up and actually pressured the Qiao family. However, Qiao Nana refused to submit even unto death. A great battle broke out between the two, and Qiao Nana was injured and defeated.

Tian Hao had rushed to stop him but was also injured by Sun Qian. Finally, Sun Qian forcibly abducted Qiao Nana...

"Sun Qian!! Very well. While I'm out working hard for the development of Linggu Village, you're back home destroying the base? You could have had a bright future, but now, you only have a path to death!" Lin Yuan said through gritted teeth.

"Tian Hao, where is Sun Qian now?" Lin Yuan asked in a deep voice.

"Sun Qian has joined the Xiao Family. He should be at the Xiao Family right now. The Xiao Family is powerful, and we have no way to go and demand her back," Tian Hao said helplessly.

"The Xiao Family is powerful? Then I'd like to see just how powerful they are!"

Seeing Lin Yuan turn to leave, Tian Hao immediately blocked his path.

"Lin Yuan, don't be impulsive. The Xiao Family's strength is too great. Going like this is no different from an egg striking a rock, and it will also bring disaster upon our Linggu Village," Tian Hao advised.

"Don't worry, the Xiao Family can't stir up any trouble. Xiao Baichi, the Head of the Xiao Family, has already been killed by me. Those remaining are nothing but chickens and dogs. Since Sun Qian dares to betray Linggu Village, no matter where he hides, he can forget about staying alive!"

Lin Yuan didn't even go around Tian Hao. He directly tore open space and stepped into a portal. Having devoured Xiao Baichi's soul, the location of the Xiao Family was already clear in his mind.

"Tian Hao, did Lin Yuan just say he killed Xiao Baichi, the Head of the Xiao Family? Is that true?" Qiao De asked immediately as Lin Yuan disappeared.

"That's what he said, but it's simply impossible. The Head of the Xiao Family is a top-tier powerhouse at the fourth level of the Profound Mystery Realm. When Lin Yuan came to our village, he only had the strength of the first level. How many days has it been? How could he possibly kill a fourth-level powerhouse?" Tian Hao analyzed.

"Then hurry to the Xiao Family! Stop him, don't let him do anything foolish!" Qiao De immediately stomped his feet in anxiety.

"Yes, Village Chief, I'm going right now!"

Hearing this, Tian Hao reacted immediately and sprinted out...
