The man in white stood on the eaves, looking cold and solemn.
The fire zombie raised his head, as if he did not hear the voice of the man in white. Instead, he was carefully observing the crescent moon in the sky. Then he bared his fangs and pounced towards Wang Ergou.
"Don't hurt anyone!"
Then a man in white descended from the sky, killed the fire zombie with one sword, crushed its bones to ashes, and then stood calmly with his hands behind his back.
All this was seen by Wang Ergou who happened to be up at night. He was so frightened that he forgot what he was doing there and the ground was wet.
With a gentle smile, the young man in white came to Wang Ergou and put his hand on his shoulder.
"ah--!"
Stunned Wang Ergou was frightened by this sudden action and quickly stepped back.
"Don't be afraid, brother. It's me. My name is Li Hao. I'm just a cultivator passing by! I will protect you."
Li Hao smiled slightly, which made Wang Ergou feel relieved. Then he took a few steps back in embarrassment.
"What just happened?"
"It's just a fire zombie. I have already killed it. If you have nothing else to do, please leave immediately."
After hearing what Li Hao said, Wang Ergou felt relieved. He thanked Li Hao and turned around and ran away in a hurry.
Li Hao looked at Wang Ergou's fleeing back, a playful smile appeared on his face, he took out a silk scarf to wipe his hands and then left.
"Rubbish. It dirty my hands."
As he walked, he spoke with contempt, he didn't take these fire zombies seriously at all.
The man Li Hao rescued was the most gossipy person in the city. Within a day, news broke that he had become a fire zombie and had died, which caused a huge shock.
For a time, people in the city were in panic, and some people had already started moving.
Of course, this was all done intentionally by Li Hao. He even specially hired someone to spread rumors, saying that the appearance of the fire zombie was related to Lin Tian and Ling Yelan.
Li Hao's goal was to make Lin Tian the target of public criticism, then capture Ling Yelan, and then slowly torture her until she could neither live nor die.
Of course, Lin Tian would not know this, nor could he know it.
He continued to eat leisurely, drink tea, and wait for the night to come.
As night fell, the city became lively again, but it was not what Lin Tian expected, because tonight's night was a bit noisier than yesterday...
A burst of noise broke the silence.
Opening his sleepy eyes, Lin Tian rubbed his hazy eyes and sat up. He looked towards the noisy place and found a group of people gathered outside their door.
If it weren't for the protection of this magic circle, the door would have been smashed to pieces.
Ling Yelan had gotten up a long time ago, but he just sat quietly by the bed, seeming not to care at all.
"Since Miss Ling is awake, why don't you go and check on her?"
"Why should I go?"
Ling Yelan looked at Lin Tian and asked in a flat tone, continuing to eat the dessert he bought.
"Aren't you curious? Aren't you worried that you might be in danger?"
“They dare.”
"Not everyone knows fear. There are always some people in this world who don't know their place. You'd better be careful!"
Lin Tian reminded Ling Yelan, sat up and prepared to find out what was going on. He should add some sound insulation function to the formation next time.
At this moment, the outside of the inn was full of people, their eyes were filled with anger and torches were waving in their hands.
Among them was a handsome young man in a blue robe. Lin Tian recognized him. He was the one who tried to tease Ling Yelan in the morning.
Next to the young man stood four or five burly men, holding weapons in their hands, staring at Lin Tian and his men with fierce expressions on their faces.
"Humph! This idiot is asking for his own death! Today we will let him know what will happen if he offends me!"
Several people cursed angrily, with murderous intent on their faces.
"Then I'm also curious about what the outcome will be."
The two did not walk out of the door, but teleported directly behind the crowd.
Feeling Lin Tian's momentum, the burly man broke out in a cold sweat.
In his opinion, he was one of the best cultivators in the area, but he didn't expect that he was completely unaware of Lin Tian's existence.
His heart was filled with fear, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and acted very arrogant.
"Boy, it's you, right? The one who bullied the young master this morning? Do you know what will happen if you offend us?"
"I just said I wanted to see it. Do you think your ears are for venting air?"
Hearing Lin Tian's disdainful answer, a trace of anger suddenly appeared on the man's face, but he didn't have time to vent it.
He found that Lin Tian was punching towards his chest, and he was knocked away by Lin Tian's punch without any resistance.
Blood flowed uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth, but he knew that his internal organs were not injured, which meant that an attack of this magnitude from Lin Tian was not worth mentioning.
"Look, I hit you again. What will happen to me? I'm so scared."
Lin Tian pretended to be very scared and said, then looked at the leading young master.
"I... I am Tiancheng, the eldest son of the Tian family. If you dare to touch me, I will never forgive you!"
Tiancheng threatened Lin Tian in a trembling voice and pretended to be vicious, wanting to scare Lin Tian, but his words had no effect at all.
How could the Human Emperor Lin Tian be frightened by an ordinary person? He just didn't buy it at all and didn't even look at him.
Seeing that Lin Tian didn't make any move, the man panicked, but also felt relieved. However, he continued to threaten Lin Tian for the sake of his face.
"Okay, you've been talking too much nonsense, how about I give you a ride?"
Lin Tian said this with a playful look on his face, but this smile made the man feel creepy.
"Don't be so presumptuous. We don't welcome people like you who bring evil here!"
An old man stood up. Although he looked old, his aura was not diminished at all and he still looked strong and vigorous.
Hearing this, Lin Tian's face was filled with black lines. In line with the idea of promoting the traditional virtues of respecting the elderly and loving the young, Lin Tian looked at the old man and asked with a smile.
"Who are you? How did we bring demons here?"
"Hmph! Stop pretending! You're not welcome here! Get out of here right now!"
The old man said this with a serious face, and pushed Lin Tian directly. Although he didn't push himself and staggered, it still made Lin Tian feel unhappy.
Fortunately, you are an old bastard who relies on your age to bully others, otherwise I would have punched you away long ago.
"Hey, old man, you are wrongly accusing me. How did I offend you? Why are you chasing me away?"
