"This time we were attacked by a group of cultivators on the South China Sea coast, and suffered heavy losses."
"The gang leader asked me to track down the murderer, but I never expected to find that the person was actually your friend, young master."
The trusted guards explained.
"I see!"
A ruthless glint flashed in the old man's eyes.
"That brat dared to kill a core disciple of my Black Wind Gang, I must kill him with my own hands!"
The old man in the black robe said coldly.
"Young Master, what should we do now?"
"The Black Wind Gang is powerful, and they are now prepared. I'm afraid we..."
The trusted guard said with some concern.
"Black Wind Gang? Hmph!"
"In this world, I'm the only one who isn't afraid of them!"
"I don't believe that the Black Wind Gang, with its small number of men, can stop me, Lin?"
The old man in black robes spoke coldly, his eyes filled with resentment.
...
A few days later, a cave dwelling stood on a desolate mountain.
A plaque hangs in front of the cave entrance: "Lin Family Inn!"
Two large, elegant characters were engraved on it: Lin Family!
Inside the Lin Family Inn.
Lin Xi sat cross-legged on the bed.
At this moment, his face was still somewhat pale, and his clothes were tattered, making him look quite disheveled.
"Whoosh!"
He exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly closed his eyes.
A sphere emitting a faint green light floated on his forehead, shimmering with dazzling light.
Lin Xi has a dark mark between his eyebrows, like a black hole, swallowing everything around him.
This black hole is like a giant vortex, swallowing everything.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, a wisp of pale black mist drifted out from the black hole, turned into a cloud of mist, and condensed into a human shape.
It was an old man in a black robe.
"Lin Xi, you actually dared to kill a core disciple of my Black Wind Gang! You are incredibly audacious!"
The old man in black robes looked coldly at Lin Xi and said in a low voice.
He exuded a strong Nascent Soul stage aura.
Peak of the early Nascent Soul stage!
"Who are you?"
Lin Xi slowly opened her eyes and looked coldly at the old man in black robes.
He knew the strength of the Black Wind Gang.
But he wasn't afraid!
He is the ninth on the Heavenly Ranking, the young master of the Lin family, and possesses terrifying combat potential!
Even if he encountered someone in the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he was confident he could fight them!
He had his own pride and principles, and would never yield to profit! A cunning smile flashed across the old man in the black robe as he coldly said, "You don't need to know who I am. Just remember, killing you now is a piece of cake for me!"
"Hehe, you can give it a try!"
Lin Xi's voice was calm and firm.
His eyes gleamed with confidence.
"Good! Very good! I'd like to see just how powerful you are, daring to challenge the authority of our Black Wind Gang!"
A cold glint flashed in the old man's eyes.
Then, with a wave of his hand, a long sword appeared in his hand.
With a flash of sword light, the black-robed old man instantly rushed in front of Lin Xi and swung his sword at him.
A metallic clanging sound rang out.
Lin Xi's body remained completely still.
The old man in black robes showed a surprised expression; the long sword in his hand had failed to sever his protective aura.
"Could this kid be a physical body realm expert?"
He was utterly shocked.
The Physical Body Realm is a kingly existence among cultivators, equivalent to a high realm of Golden Core cultivators.
Such strength is comparable to that of a regional overlord in the entire cultivation world.
"Boy, since you're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"
The old man in black robes gritted his teeth and roared, attacking once more.
Black sword energy surged forth like a tidal wave.
The sword energy grazed Lin Xi's shoulder, leaving a deep wound that exposed the bone.
A sharp, piercing pain shot through Lin Xi, and her expression changed slightly.
That sword almost severed his arm.
"You're asking for it!"
Lin Xi roared, clenched his right fist, and punched the old man in black robes hard.
Bang!
With a dull thud, the old man in black robes was sent flying, crashing through the wall and falling to the ground, blood streaming from his mouth and nose.
Lin Xi stood inside the room, his whole body enveloped in a soft light, like a celestial being descended from heaven.
"You, you're a Golden Core cultivator?"
The old man in black robes cried out in terror.
The aura emanating from Lin Xi was too strong; he couldn't judge Lin Xi's cultivation level at all.
This Lin Xi has actually hidden his true strength.
Lin Xi sneered: "Since you know that, you still dare to challenge me? You're really tired of living!"
The old man in black robes wore a bitter expression and said tremblingly, "I... I was just following orders, please forgive me!"
"Yes, sir? Hahaha!"
Lin Xi threw his head back and laughed wildly, his eyes full of mockery.
"Yes, sir? Hahahaha!"
"Since when have you Black Wind Gang members started to believe in obeying orders?"
"Yes, sir?"
A mocking smile curled at the corner of Lin Xi's lips. "Old man in black robes, what do you think this place is? This is the Lin Family Inn!"
"Our Lin Family Inn is a top-tier sect. How could we tolerate such insignificant behavior from someone like you?"
The old man in black robes turned extremely ugly, and he said through gritted teeth, "Lin Xi, you'd better surrender obediently, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
"Heh, you want to kill me?"
"Alright, I'd love to see just how powerful the Black Wind Gang's experts really are!"
Lin Xi showed no fear, but instead looked at the old man in black robes defiantly.
The old man in black robes was enraged by this, and with a roar, he swung his sword to attack...
