89: Chapter 89: They're actually siblings!

"Zhao Wuxian, why are you here?"

Zhao Feishuang glanced at the old man beside Young Master Zhao, stared at that pig-headed face for a long time, and seemed to only just recognize the person opposite her; her expression darkened as she asked in surprise.

This is Xu Lin's Pet Shop. Could it be that he also knows Xu Lin?

Xu Lin was even more surprised; these two actually knew each other.

Opposite them, Zhao Wuxian snorted coldly and frowned, saying, "It has nothing to do with you. Move aside, and make this beast get further away."

Zhao Feishuang chuckled, "I am your sister, after all. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll have Xiaobai bite you again."

Woof woof...

Xiaobai barked twice in perfect coordination.

Zhao Wuxian subconsciously stepped back; he seemed to have some psychological trauma from Xiaobai.

"You had better not be here to cause trouble."

Zhao Feishuang seemed to think of something, her expression suddenly hardening as she spoke.

"It's none of your business why I'm here. I told you to move aside and stop blocking the way, did you hear me? Otherwise, I'll kill this beast."

Zhao Wuxian retreated behind the old man beside him, looking somewhat cowardly despite his harsh words.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feishuang immediately looked at the old man and pulled Xiaobai back.

"You had better not touch Xiaobai, or I will definitely fight you to the death."

At this moment, Xu Lin also walked out.

"You two know each other?"

Xu Lin raised an eyebrow and looked at Zhao Feishuang.

Zhao Feishuang nodded, "He is my younger brother, my half-brother."

Xu Lin was taken aback upon hearing this; he hadn't expected the world to be so small that he could run into both the sister and the brother separately.

But being half-siblings, it seemed their relationship wasn't very good.

When Zhao Wuxian saw Xu Lin, it was as if he were meeting a sworn enemy.

"Xu Lin, I came here because I have something to discuss with you."

But he restrained himself and instead asked.

"Your strength is not bad. I want to give you a chance; if you can join our Zhao family as a guest elder, then the matter of you offending me previously will be written off, and I will also promise you generous compensation."

After Zhao Wuxian finished speaking, a look of smugness flashed across his face.

Xu Lin shook his head, "I refuse."

"What did you say? Do you know the status of our Zhao family?"

Zhao Wuxian was stunned, then roared.

Xu Lin shrugged, "I don't know, and I have no interest in knowing."

"You... fine. If you refuse to be reasonable, you'll have to face the consequences."

Zhao Wuxian was furious and looked at the old man beside him.

The old man remained indifferent.

Zhao Wuxian raged, "Do it! I want to make sure he doesn't live to see tomorrow's sun."

The old man said in a low voice, "Young Master, I am not his match."

Zhao Wuxian was stunned, "Are you serious? He's so young, how could he be a martial arts master?"

"Young Master, you said you came here to recruit him, not to stir up trouble."

The old man smiled bitterly and helplessly.

Zhao Wuxian forcefully suppressed his anger and said, "Fine then, just help me kill this stupid dog. Zhao Feishuang, we will settle our accounts slowly in the future. Don't think that just by hiding in Qingan you'll be safe; you cannot resist the family."

Zhao Feishuang's expression changed drastically, "Zhao Wuxian, you are courting death. Elder Li, if you dare to lay a hand on Xiaobai, I will definitely make you pay the price."

The old man was very helpless and said, "Miss Zhao, there is nothing I can do about this. I am currently following the Young Master, but I will not take action against you."

As he spoke, he looked at Xiaobai.

Xiaobai let out a loud bark and rushed to Xu Lin's side.

[King Xu, help me! They actually want to kill me.]

Seeing this, Xu Lin couldn't help but laugh, "What did you do before? Why is this brat so afraid of you?"

[I bit him. His group of cronies wanted to bully my master, so I bit them a couple of times.]

"Alright, don't worry."

Xu Lin patted the dog's head and looked at Zhao Wuxian opposite him.

"You two are both from the Imperial Capital's Zhao family, right?"

Zhao Feishuang nodded, "Yes. This guy relies on my father's favoritism to run wild and do as he pleases; he has done many things to bully others."

Xu Lin nodded, "Doesn't sound like a good person."

Zhao Feishuang said, "Boss Xu, you don't need to get involved in matters between us, otherwise it will bring you trouble."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Wuxian.

"If you dare to make a move today, then expect to be kicked out of the family tomorrow."

Zhao Wuxian laughed heartily, "Just you? I'm afraid you've forgotten how you came to Qingan, haven't you?"

Zhao Feishuang's face turned cold, "Then what if it's Aunt?"

Hearing this, Zhao Wuxian's tone faltered. He opened his mouth and said, "How could Aunt possibly help you? Who do you think you are? She is my aunt too."

"You can try. Also, regarding Boss Xu, if you dare to mess around, I guarantee you will pay the price. Boss Xu and Cousin Zhang Yicheng are friends."

Zhao Feishuang was a bit unsure when saying this; mostly because she was lying.

After all, regarding Zhang Yicheng, he had only met Xu Lin a few times, and was not even as familiar with him as she was.

But Zhao Feishuang could only say it this way.

The Zhao family was a behemoth that Xu Lin could not afford to offend.

Therefore, it was best to downplay the conflict now; otherwise, in the future, she might even end up standing on the opposite side of Xu Lin.

Xu Lin was a capable person, and Zhao Feishuang did not want to drag him down.

"Miss Zhao, the two of us actually already have a conflict; it has nothing to do with you."

Xu Lin pulled Zhao Feishuang aside and walked to the front.

At this time, Qi Yingxue also heard the commotion and rushed out.

Seeing that it was Zhao Wuxian, she was somewhat surprised.

"How did this guy follow here?"

"I followed you here? Brat, it seems you don't want to accept my recruitment?"

Zhao Wuxian stared at Xu Lin and said.

Xu Lin frowned, "Was I not clear enough?"

Zhao Wuxian said, "How could Cousin be friends with you? Xu Lin, I'll give you one more chance."

"I refuse. You can get lost. And this Elder Li, if you still want to keep what little strength you have, don't follow him to come and jump around in front of me next time."

Xu Lin frowned, his expression turning cold.

The next moment, as Xu Lin waved his hand, an invisible force surged out, knocking Zhao Wuxian flying away.

He was just an ordinary person, so Xu Lin did not use lethal force, but he did leave something inside his body.

Hopefully he will behave himself; otherwise, he won't be able to blame him for being ruthless.

Come to think of it, he was actually quite kind-hearted and had never killed anything before.

Elder Li flew out along with Zhao Wuxian.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground, and struggled a few times before barely managing to climb up.

He discovered with horror that his Inner Strength cultivation was now extremely scattered, and he couldn't even exert one-tenth of it.

What kind of method is this?

While heavily injuring him, it could also prevent his already solidified Inner Strength cultivation from condensing.

Is this something a Grandmaster can do?

A sense of terror welled up from the bottom of his heart. Elder Li hurriedly grabbed Zhao Wuxian and told him to shut up.

Because although Zhao Wuxian looked a bit dazed from being slapped from a distance, with blood at the corners of his mouth and nose, and his face even more swollen, he could not be offended; if they offended him again, it was uncertain whether the two of them could leave this place today.

"Young Master, let's go back first and talk."

Elder Li said in a low voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, he coughed violently, coughing up a large glob of black blood.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Wuxian stared with wide eyes, unable to speak; he finally knew what it meant to be afraid.

"Let's go."

He hurriedly followed Elder Li and left.

Seeing this, a look of shock flashed in the depths of Zhao Feishuang's eyes, and then she let out a long sigh.

"Trouble, indeed. But Boss Xu, what exactly is your level of strength? Grandmaster? You are so young; if you were a Grandmaster, it would be easier to resolve."
