Lin Jiujiu felt that these people were probably not after his family, since no one knew that everyone in his family had started cultivating.
But they still sent so many cultivators over. Either Ning Yi's identity had been discovered, or they were after Tantai Yueming.
Regardless of who they are, judging from the overwhelming killing intent, these people are definitely not here to negotiate.
Since that's the case, she doesn't need to be polite.
Several members of the Lin family were already Foundation Establishment cultivators. Although their cultivation techniques were not yet proficient, they were still able to keep these people in place by taking advantage of the terrain and the formation she had set up earlier.
Now it remains to be seen whether they can bring themselves to be ruthless.
Lin Jiujiu didn't mean to force them, but if she didn't teach them how to protect themselves, she wouldn't be able to leave with peace of mind.
Ning Yi, on the other hand, was filled with fighting spirit upon hearing Lin Jiujiu's words.
He was a young general who had fought on the battlefield, so he naturally didn't care much about killing.
But the Lin family was different. Although they had started cultivating, they had never experienced life and death. When they heard that someone was coming to kill them, their first thought was not how to fight back, but that they were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
Lin Xiaomei, on the other hand, seemed eager to try.
Lin Jiujiu didn't pay any attention to her. With herself and Baili Chenyuan watching over her, even if the girl went crazy, those people couldn't hurt her, so she let her be.
However, the rest of the Lin family members were still somewhat at a loss, and Lin's father kept looking towards Lin Jiujiu.
Lin Jiujiu understood what he meant, but she still forced herself to ignore it.
As those people entered the village, the murderous intent in the air grew even stronger.
There was also a faint smell of blood mixed in.
It's obvious that these people made their move; it's just a question of who was unlucky enough to be the first to suffer the consequences.
Lin Jiujiu knew that the Lin family members were naturally simple and kind, and if they weren't given a little stimulation, they simply wouldn't be able to be ruthless.
Thinking this, she made a hand seal and sent several streams of spiritual energy toward the core of the array, instantly dispelling the outermost array in the courtyard.
As the formation was removed, the stench of blood wafted over, impossible to conceal.
Even a fool would know where such a strong smell comes from.
The Lin family members turned even paler, and Lin's mother and Madam Hu couldn't help but vomit.
Lin Yun'er was slightly better off, but she still firmly protected the two children behind her, while Liang Xing stood in front of them.
Lin Jiujiu had given each of them a spirit sword as soon as they started cultivating, but Lin Xiaomei gave them wooden swords because she was afraid they would become arrogant.
Seeing that they still hadn't reacted by this point, and were all unarmed, Lin Jiujiu's expression turned unusually cold.
"Draw your swords. Those people have already started killing. They don't care who you are or whether you can resist."
If you do not take up arms to fight back, what awaits you is the killing of yourself and your loved ones.
Lin Jiujiu was determined this time. If they continued to cower behind her like this, they wouldn't have the slightest courage to resist.
That proves they are not suited for cultivating immortality.
After tonight, she will personally cripple their cultivation, seal their memories, and leave them here as mortals for the rest of their lives.
Lin's father seemed to sense his daughter's displeasure, and with trembling hands, he took out a spirit sword from his storage bag.
Although I was very scared, I still stood in front of my family.
Needless to say, Lin Ze, Lin Yu, and Lin Luo all lined up with their father at almost the same time.
Being young and full of vigor, their eyes showed fear, but even more so, determination.
In this light, Lin's father seems rather inadequate.
Seemingly realizing that he had been outdone by his son, Mr. Lin calmed down.
His hand holding the sword no longer trembled, and his back straightened a bit.
As for the younger ones, such as Tantai Haoze, Liang Yu, and Liang Hua, Lin Jiujiu didn't let them fight; she just had them watch from the sidelines.
As for whether children will be frightened by seeing blood, that's obviously not a question.
Since we'll have to meet again sooner or later, it's better to let them see the cruelty of cultivating immortality now.
It's not too late to regret it before she leaves.
Just as the Lin family was preparing for battle, several dark figures swept over the high courtyard wall and appeared in the courtyard.
Seeing the Lin family members standing there with swords and knives, the men in black were clearly taken aback.
However, they quickly revealed a mocking expression.
That's right. These people were dressed in all black, without even wearing masks, clearly indicating that they didn't intend to leave any survivors who had seen them.
Knowing that she was the most powerful in the family besides her second sister, Lin Xiaomei stepped forward to block her family members, puffed out her still-developing chest, and asked them.
"Who are you? What do you want in my house?"
The leader of the men in black clearly disdained to answer the question, and with a wave of his hand, he signaled the men behind him to take action.
Just then, a surge of spiritual energy came from the side and behind. Ning Yi had already hidden in the shadows under the wall before these people even showed themselves.
The leader of the men in black reacted strangely, and it was too late for him to dodge.
He narrowly escaped a fatal blow, but his arm was still slashed open with a long gash.
When the man saw who had attacked him, a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
Then, surprisingly, he spoke up.
"Young Master Ning actually hid here. No wonder my master couldn't find you even after searching the entire capital."
Therefore, it seems the Crown Prince should have been present at this time as well.
As he spoke, his gaze swept across the crowd, finally landing on Tantai Haoze, who was standing with Liang Yu.
He then grinned and said, "Good, very good. I originally thought this would be a boring task, but I didn't expect to get such a reward."
"Bring your two heads back to the capital, and my master will surely reward me handsomely."
Without waiting for anyone to react, he formed his five fingers into a claw and reached for Tantai Haoze's neck.
Lin Ze and Liang Xing reacted simultaneously, raising their swords to parry, while Lin Yu and Lin Luo drew their swords and thrust them towards his lower body.
None of the four of them originally knew kung fu, nor did they possess spiritual power or know how to use it.
Although Lin Jiujiu had taught them the techniques, each of them only grasped the general idea.
The fireballs Lin Yu condensed using his fire control technique were only the size of soybeans, making them completely unusable against enemies.
On the contrary, the basic sword techniques that Lin Xiaomei kept pestering Ning Yi to teach them were more applicable at this time.
Ning Yi, being a soldier by training, understood that the best swordsmanship on the battlefield was the ability to kill the enemy and win; naturally, he didn't use any fancy sword techniques.
Although everyone had only been learning for a few days, through their concerted efforts, they managed to stop the man's fatal attack.
At that moment, Ning Yi had already attacked from behind.
They got into a fierce fight with the leader.
The two were at roughly the same level, but Ning Yi's cultivation was not as smooth and effortless as the other man's ability to circulate spiritual energy.
However, Ning Yi was far superior to that person in terms of martial arts skills, and the fight was evenly matched.
