The night wind was chilly at the Dragon Soul Hall.

On the balcony of the middle villa.

Wu Yuehan, dressed in sportswear, was frowning as she looked towards the gate.

She noticed it not long ago.

Near the guild hall, two strange figures appeared, lurking around the guild hall throughout the night.

The method of concealment was not particularly clever.

After she discovered it, she informed Lin Jinglong.

"I expect they'll be back soon."

Wu Yuehan muttered to herself.

During this period, thanks to the effect of the Yin-Yang Sun and Moon Cicada, she and Lin Jinglong cultivated together every night, and her strength improved rapidly, reaching the middle stage of Martial King.

Therefore, their perception abilities have also improved.

The two prodigies who came from the Hidden World Alliance were completely unaware of all this.

They were standing on the opposite side of the street at that moment.

The leader was rubbing his hands together, glancing around every now and then, waiting for Lin Jinglong to appear.

The person next to him was ugly.

"Brother Qiu, why don't we act now and capture that woman named Wu Yuehan? Then we can force Lin Jinglong to submit, and maybe the two of us will have a chance to win!"

"Hmph! Have you forgotten the orders Young Master Long gave us: to notify them to come immediately after we discover Lin Jinglong?"

The young man, referred to as Brother Qiu, frowned and said.

"Hehe, I just heard that the Spirit Martial War God is beautiful, and I wanted to try him out first, didn't I?"

The ugly man rubbed his palms together, indulging in lewd thoughts.

Brother Qiu sneered and shook his head.

"I remember that after you were recruited into the Lin family, you were given a skill called the Innate Childhood Skill. Do you not intend to continue practicing it?"

Upon hearing this, the ugly man looked aggrieved.

"I don't think being a retainer of the Lin family is so easy. I have to run errands and risk my life for them, and all I get in return is a mere Earth-rank Innate Child Skill. It's really suffocating!"

Brother Qiu didn't say much.

He shook his head.

"The most important thing in martial arts is focus. Since you are from my Qiu family, even if you are from a collateral branch, I feel it is necessary to remind you not to be swayed by external things!"

I got a lecture.

The ugly man lowered his head.

His eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

"The Qiu family? They were the most thoroughly wiped out of the ten clans. Lin Jinglong was truly ruthless."

"Forget about that woman, killing Lin Jinglong is the priority."

"The Qiu family's grudge must be avenged!"

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy when the topic of the massacre came up, and the expressions of the two men became solemn again.

It was at this time.

In the shadows behind the two.

Lin Jinglong, carrying the Dragon Roar Blade, stepped out.

Actually, he had arrived a while ago and originally planned to go directly to Tianxing Club, but he heard Wu Yuehan's reminder.

He rushed back to the guild hall.

And they noticed the presence of these two people.

It was also their fault for not hiding anything at all, brazenly exposing themselves under Lin Jinglong's nose, and thus they became the unlucky ones.

"So they are remnants of the Qiu family."

"who?"

Brother Qiu suddenly turned around and looked.

All that could be seen were the streetlights at dusk and a dark alleyway, with no sign of the person speaking.

"ah!"

Another scream came from behind.

When he turned his head to look again...

The ugly man was being held by the shoulder by Lin Jinglong, with a long, black knife held against his neck, its blood-red blade gleaming with a menacing light.

"Brother Qiu, save me!"

The ugly man let out a pitiful wail.

Lin Jinglong smiled at Brother Qiu and said calmly, "The prodigy of a reclusive family seems to be nothing special?"

Although these two have also reached the high-level Saint Realm.

But for Lin Jinglong now, they are still too weak.

And then the next moment.

Under Brother Qiu's horrified gaze.

A horrific wound was slashed across the ugly man's neck, and blood splattered several meters away.

It sprayed all over Qiu Ge's face.

"You're asking for it!"

Brother Qiu was immediately enraged.

To kill the last member of the Qiu family's collateral branch in front of him is an utter disgrace!

Enraged, he was about to make his move.

But then the corpse collapsed to the ground, looking limp and lifeless.

Lin Jinglong's figure disappeared once again.

By the time he reacted, he heard the whistling sound of blades cutting through the air behind him.

"Sizzle!"

Clothing and flesh torn apart.

The sound of a blade scraping against bone was grating.

Qiu Ge lunged forward, fell to the ground, and was then stepped on by Lin Jinglong from behind.

"Don't kill me!"

Brother Qiu finally began to feel fear.

But Lin Jinglong had no intention of holding back.

He looked up and gazed into the hall, where Wu Yuehan's figure was faintly visible.

He waved over there.

He then chopped off Brother Qiu's head with a single stroke.

"Be careful in your next life, don't mess with me."

After Lin Jinglong dealt with the two men...

He instructed the old soldiers at the Dragon Soul Club to come out and collect the body and clean the ground, then went to see Wu Yuehan and told her to wait at home, while he still had to go to the Heavenly Star Club.

It was already late at night.

Inside the Tianxing Club, Long Feng's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and the red wine in his hand seemed to taste bland.

Inside the presidential suite.

He put down his wine glass.

He immediately summoned all the geniuses of the ten clans.

The total number is nearly twenty.

"There's still no news from Qiu Xiang. I'm not going to wait any longer. I'll go to the Dragon Soul Hall and get the situation under control first."

Long Feng looked around at everyone and gave the order in a cold voice.

The others all nodded.

"I can't wait any longer, I'm contacting Qiu Xiang!"

A young woman standing nearby spoke up.

However, when she took out her phone and dialed Qiu Xiang's number, she was unable to get through.

After several repetitions, everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.
