"Is that so?" Lin Haoyu's lips twitched slightly, and a ruthless smile slowly bloomed on his face.

"Lin Xi, if you wish to die, I will grant your wish!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Lin Haoyu's body, with strands of qi surrounding him and emanating a bone-chilling cold.

"Um?"

Sensing the oppressive aura emanating from Lin Haoyu, Lin Xi's pupils suddenly contracted, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected Lin Haoyu to have already advanced to the Innate Realm.

The gap between the Innate Realm and the Condensation Realm is like an insurmountable chasm; the difference between the two is like that between an ant and a giant elephant.

"Lin Xi, do you think you can stop me on your own?"

"I advise you to leave this place as soon as possible, otherwise your fate may not be so optimistic!"

Lin Haoyu slowly straightened up, his clothes fluttering in the wind, his face indifferent, but his gaze was fixed on Lin Xi.

"Lin Haoyu, no matter who you are, you won't leave here unscathed today!"

Lin Xi moved her lips, her body slowly rising into the air, her arms outstretched, as if about to unleash a secret technique.

Seeing this, Lin Haoyu's eyes flashed with confusion, not understanding why Lin Xi did not flee but instead wanted to fight him to the death.

Could it be that his body holds some secret?

Thinking about it this way, a sense of anticipation rose in Lin Haoyu's heart.

"Lin Xi, if you bow your head and kowtow three times right now, perhaps I will spare your life," Lin Haoyu said coldly.

"Lin Haoyu, even if I die, you won't leave here alive!" Lin Xi stared coldly at Lin Haoyu, her eyes filled with deep hatred for the Lin family: "Over the years, the Lin family has relentlessly pressured us. Do you really think I'm willing to endure such bullying?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Haoyu couldn't help but chuckle.

"Lin Xi, do you really think I'm afraid of your Lin family? In my eyes, you Lin family members are nothing but ants!"

Lin Haoyu said contemptuously, his body emanating a chilling killing intent that almost materialized and spread in all directions.

Lin Xi's lips curled into a sarcastic smile as he shook his head and chuckled, his eyes flashing with mockery as he looked at Lin Haoyu: "Lin Haoyu, you can at best fight me to a draw right now, and your two elders haven't even shown up yet. Do you think you can defeat me?" He continued, "Assuming they find out I'm causing you trouble, and they come to your aid, do you think you can escape?"

"Therefore, you now only have one option: surrender!"

Lin Haoyu's pupils suddenly contracted, his body trembled slightly, and his face turned grim. Helplessness and anger intertwined in his heart. Lin Xi's strength had increased beyond his expectations.

Moreover, Lin Haoyu knew perfectly well that Lin Xi was right. At this moment, the Lin family's ancestor, Lin Yuanshan, must be in seclusion, otherwise he would definitely have intervened.

"Lin Xi, do you really want me to surrender?" Lin Haoyu asked through gritted teeth.

Lin Xi nodded slightly: "That's right, otherwise, how could I force you?"

"Since you want to die, then I'll grant your wish!" Lin Haoyu's eyes narrowed, and he stomped his right foot hard on the ground, leaving a deep footprint, before charging towards Lin Xi.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Lin Xi flashed forward and met Lin Haoyu's attack head-on, striking him squarely in the chest.

Blood splattered everywhere as Lin Haoyu flew hundreds of meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

"Cough cough..."

Lin Haoyu coughed violently, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. Despite being injured by Lin Xi's fierce attack, he had not lost his ability to fight, only his strength was somewhat weakened.

"Lin Haoyu, I advise you to hand over that stone tablet to me now! Otherwise, when my master comes out of seclusion, I will shatter you to pieces!" Lin Xi warned coldly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Haoyu snorted coldly, a mad light flashing in his eyes: "Lin Xi, your master is just a late-stage Earth Rank expert, what do I, Lin Haoyu, have to fear!"

Lin Haoyu's words were full of firm confidence.

"Hehe, really? Then let's give it a try!"

Lin Xi snorted coldly, his figure flashed in front of Lin Haoyu in an instant, and he clenched his right fist and struck out, aiming straight at the opponent's face.

"Get out of my way!"

Bang!

Lin Haoyu uttered a single word with disdain, slightly shifting his body to avoid Lin Xi's fist, and then struck Lin Xi's neck with a palm strike.

Lin Haoyu's palm glowed with a cold blue light, and terrifying ice-attribute power tore through the air like knives, aiming straight for Lin Xi's throat. The two exchanged blows, locked in a fierce and evenly matched fight, stirring up terrifying shockwaves. Lin Haoyu's speed was extremely fast, and each attack concealed deadly intent, leaving Lin Xi no room for complacency.

"Lin Haoyu, you're too arrogant!"

Lin Xi's face was shrouded in dark clouds, and his eyes burned like raging flames. He darted through the void, his fist shadows like meteorites in a whirlwind, relentlessly bombarding Lin Haoyu. Each impact contained a chilling power.

Bang!

A deep thud echoed as their fists collided in mid-air.

Faced with Lin Xi's offensive, Lin Haoyu frowned and his face gradually darkened.

"Lin Xi, your strength has indeed increased a lot, but it's not enough!"

"Want to kill me? You're dreaming!" Lin Haoyu's gaze swept over the high platform beside Lin Xi.

"That's right, it's a dream. But as long as I can retrieve that stone tablet, I can advance to the Xuan-rank martial arts!" A greedy light gleamed in Lin Xi's eyes: "That stone tablet is a relic left by my Lin family ancestors, and I will never allow anyone else to touch it!"

"Today, I am determined to seize the stone tablet!"

"Hmph, wishful thinking!" Lin Haoyu snorted coldly, spun around, and went to fight again.

The two exchanged blows, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle, neither able to gain the upper hand for a time.

"Lin Haoyu, I knew you wouldn't admit defeat so easily!" A cruel glint flashed in Lin Xi's eyes: "But now, you are no match for me!"

"Let's see how long you can hold out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xi's figure suddenly vanished without a trace.

The wind howled, and a bone-chilling cold suddenly erupted from Lin Xi's body, rushing straight towards Lin Haoyu.

Sensing this icy aura, Lin Haoyu's eyelids twitched slightly, and a hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes.

This is ice element, and a rare ice element at that, with astonishing power. Lin Haoyu's expression turned serious.
