403: The first Destiny Girl?

Seeing that the opponent had become cautious, continuing the fight felt quite boring.

Lin Ye turned his head and looked at Tang Zhiruo, who had collapsed into the ruins.

The latter noticed Lin Ye's gaze, her eyes filled with terror: "I, I, I am a member of the Tang Family, and my cousin is Tang Xueqin, a Sequence Disciple of the Academy! You had better not..."

"Who?!"

Before Tang Zhiruo could finish speaking, Lin Ye appeared directly in front of her, grabbed her by the collar, and lifted her up.

"Who did you say your cousin was?!"

Tang Zhiruo struggled continuously while suspended in the air. Seeing Lin Ye's eyes made her even more terrified. Regardless of whether her cousin had any grudge against this person, she screamed, "Tang, Tang Xueqin!!!"

Bang!

Lin Ye tossed Tang Zhiruo onto the ground with a thud, his brows furrowed tightly.

Tang Xueqin.

Wasn't she that cheap fiancée of his? At the very beginning, she had broken off their engagement and then had her Qi Sea shattered.

She had run all the way to the Great Thousand Domains?

"Sigh..."

Lin Ye sighed.

He had previously told his father, Lin Zhentian.

If you don't pull out the weeds by the roots, they will grow back with the spring breeze. By all rights, this Tang Xueqin was supposed to be Lin Ye's Daughter of Destiny, but he had absolutely no interest in that woman.

Furthermore, she had even come to break off the engagement. What was he supposed to do, make some three-year pact with her?

He had said it before: just slaughter Tang Xueqin immediately to save her from learning some kind of entanglement technique or resurrecting a lover. With so many trump cards, killing her would be such a hassle.

Sure enough, even with her Qi Sea shattered, she was still able to develop and even become a Sequence Disciple of Xuanyang Academy.

Oh well.

He would just treat it as giving his cheap father some Face. If he happened to meet Tang Xueqin, as long as she didn't provoke him, he would let it slide.

If she did provoke him...

Lin Ye's eyes narrowed slightly. He was not the type to be soft-hearted, even though he still kept his original intention in mind, remembering that he was a person of truth, goodness, and beauty.

But a Son of Destiny would still take action when necessary.

With this in mind, Lin Ye spoke to the Tang Zhiruo below: "Scram, while I'm still in a good mood. But if you provoke me again next time, I guarantee that you and your cousin will both die a miserable death."

"..."

Tang Zhiruo, lying on the ground, bit her lower lip tightly. She had originally thought that her cousin from the Lower Domain was an old acquaintance of this person.

But this person had actually said, point-blank, that he wanted to kill her and her cousin?

It seemed the two had absolutely no relationship at all!

Tang Zhiruo dared not linger any longer and immediately dashed off into the distance.

She was terrified that if she were even a second late, Lin Ye might slaughter her.

Just at this moment, Xiao Yi stepped forward and spoke to Lin Ye: "This... um..."

Lin Ye said indifferently: "My name is Lin Ye."

"This Divine Son Lin, I truly did not know your identity before. If there was any offense, please forgive me. Please, come with me and let my Xiao Family host you; there will be no lack of compensation."

Xiao Yi spoke cautiously, deeply afraid of offending the youth before him.

What if people from the Flying Feather Holy Sect came and wiped out their Xiao Family?

After all, Lin Ye was a Divine Son. In this Zhongtian Star Region, besides Xuanyang Academy, who else could withstand the Flying Feather Holy Sect?!

The Xiao Family certainly stood no chance.

Looking at the cautious Xiao Yi before him, Lin Ye chuckled: "I still prefer that unruly appearance you had before."

"Ah?"

Xiao Yi was stunned, clearly not understanding what Lin Ye meant by this sentence.

Lin Ye shook his head and walked directly to Xiao Tian's side, asking: "How are you? Are you alright?"

Xiao Tian's clothes were somewhat tattered, and combined with the previous bloodstains and the aftermath of the battle between Lin Ye and Xiao Yi, he now appeared disheveled, and even his complexion was somewhat pale.

Facing this sudden concern from a stranger, Xiao Tian felt somewhat unaccustomed to it, but he still shook his head: "I'm fine."

"That's good."

Lin Ye nodded.

The reason he showed concern for Xiao Tian was simply because he thought about how his System had snatched away all his things, so he was just offering a casual word of comfort.

In contrast, Xiao Tian felt a warmth in his heart.

Ever since he became a good-for-nothing, it seemed Lin Ye was the first person to speak up and care about him.

Xiao Yi's pupils dilated sharply. When those few members of the Xiao Family had called him earlier, they had said something about Xiao Tian's friend attacking members of the Xiao Family.

Could this Divine Son really be Xiao Tian's friend?!

At this thought, Xiao Yi was somewhat alarmed. He worried that Xiao Tian would ask this friend to seek justice for him; after all, Xiao Tian had been bullied quite miserably earlier.

Fortunately, Xiao Tian did not speak out of turn.

To prevent Lin Ye from continuing to ask questions, Xiao Yi hurriedly stepped forward and said: "So, Divine Son Lin, you are friends with our Second Young Master! Then our Xiao Family must host you even more properly!"

Hearing this, Xiao Tian frowned. He did not know Lin Ye, and if their relationship was misunderstood like this, what if it caused displeasure?

Just as he was about to explain, Lin Ye nodded: "That's right, I am friends with him."

Xiao Tian looked at Lin Ye blankly, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Yi hurriedly roared at the few people standing blankly on the sidelines: "What are you still standing there for?! Don't you see the blood on the Second Young Master! Hurry and take him to change! Also, send someone to notify our Clan Elders and the Clan Chief! We have an honored guest at the Xiao Family!"

Hearing Xiao Yi's roar, the crowd snapped out of their daze and quickly started moving.

Some ran into the house to report the situation, while others supported Xiao Tian to go and change.

This was a world of difference from their previous attitude.

Xiao Yi made a gesture of invitation to Lin Ye: "Divine Son Lin, please, come this way."

Lin Ye and Liu Yao walked directly into the Xiao Family residence.

...

After they left, several figures appeared on the spot, looking at the Xiao Family before them with meaningful expressions.

"Lin Ye is friends with that good-for-nothing from the Xiao Family?"

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Ming is already a Sequence Disciple of our Academy. The Xiao Family won't cause trouble. Besides, Xiao Ming and that Xiao Tian are like fire and water."

"That's fine, but we should inform the Masters about this matter, to avoid any problems."

"..."

These people from Xuanyang Academy had been monitoring Lin Ye from the very beginning.

And what they didn't know was that this so-called secret surveillance had long been seen by Lin Ye.

This was also the reason he chose to enter the Xiao Family first. Also, he had heard before that the eldest Young Master of the Xiao Family was also a Sequence Disciple of Xuanyang Academy; he could use this as an excuse to inquire about matters regarding the Academy.

Inside the Xiao Family, the Xiao Clan Chief and the various Clan Elders had all arrived at the council hall. They already knew that the Divine Son of the Flying Feather Holy Sect was coming to visit their Xiao Family, and he was also a friend of Xiao Tian.

"I told you so! That branch of Xiao Xiong cannot be touched! Look at how you have treated Xiao Tian!"
