Zhao Hetu said, "The secret on Cheng Qing's body, for him to be able to grow so fast, there is no need to say more about its weight. "Cheng Qing isn't here now, but that little girl surnamed Lin and that brat Li Muhao must know the inside story. As long as I capture them alive and force them to do so, I won't have to worry that I won't be able to use this secret!"
The Li family's Second Elder stroked his beard and nodded. "Indeed."
He glanced at Lin Xin, and suddenly said with a smile, "Actually, even if the Zhao Family Head didn't say anything, I still wouldn't be willing to kill this little girl. Although it was only in its prime, it already had the appearance of a hibiscus. No one would be willing to part with it if they saw it. "Bring her back this time, and I will make sure to show some love and compassion. I'll make sure she forgets about that fellow, Cheng Qing, in the future."
A hint of disgust flashed through Zhao Hetu's eyes. He remained calm and collected on the surface, "As long as you capture him, you will naturally be at Elder Li's mercy."
The cultivators of the Li and Zhao Families rushed over together. Those who were still by Lin Xin's side and Li Muhao's side were all loyal to the Tranquil Sky Sect. Those who weren't loyal enough had long since fled, so no one retreated.
Although Li Muhao's injuries weren't as severe as Lin Xin's, they weren't light either. Gritting his teeth, he charged forward, not retreating at all. Not long after, several more wounds appeared on his body, and blood soaked his robes.
Liu Jing'an stood beside Li Muhao and fought alongside him. From time to time, a few cultivators would fall in front of the two, but they would also be on the verge of collapsing.
In the blink of an eye, less than half of the twenty or so cultivators from the An Tian Sect had been killed. At the same time, a gap had been opened in the defensive barrier, and several cultivators of the sixth or seventh level had charged into it.
Lin Xin held Zhi Yan in her hand, and with the protection of her bodyguards, she gritted her teeth and continued to fight. However, she was too injured, and was unable to withstand the ferocious attacks, and seeing the female bodyguards fall one after the other, Lin Xin knew very well that she wouldn't be able to hold on much longer.
Finally, a level seven Incarceration Realm cultivator pushed aside the last two female guards and arrived in front of Lin An. He raised his long blade above his head and slashed down, "Seven Wave Tornado Strike! "Little girl, fall down!"
After receiving the other party's five slashes, his hands began to tremble non-stop. On the sixth slash, Lin Xin could no longer hold the swan in his hands and flew out on the spot. As the seventh slash came crashing down, Lin Xin was no longer able to dodge.
The enemy's knife was not aimed at her forehead, but at her shoulder. She wanted to send his arm flying, because the Li family's Second Elder wanted to catch him alive, but he did not know the enemy's evil thoughts.
At this moment, her eyes flashed, as if she could see a door opening in a flash, and the light inside was extremely bright. She knew in her heart that this was the River Styx Gate, in the moment before death, Lin Xin was neither happy nor sad, only regretting deeply that a thought had flashed through her mind, "Unexpectedly, we haven't even seen the last time, it's been a year since we parted …"
However, the door was only an illusion in the end, and the scene before her very quickly returned to reality. The moment Lin Xin had been waiting for did not come, because in her field of vision, the long blade that had fallen was held in mid-air by someone else.
Seeing that hand, Lin Xin's body trembled.
The scene was so familiar.
She saw the back of the figure, standing in front of her.
This back was somewhat thin and not too wide, but to Lin Xin, it was incomparably warm and majestic.
Grasping the edge of the dagger in his hand, he shielded her behind him. Everything seemed to have happened yesterday.
