Rui Qing yelled angrily, so the dignified middle-aged man locked his eyes on Lin Xun instantly.
Lin Xun was just a nice and harmless looking young man at the first glance. But when the middle-aged man found the deep and indifferent black eyes of Lin Xun, a palpitation inspired in his heart.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced around and asked innocently, “It seems that there was a fierce battle here just now?”
Lin Xun laughed in his heart, knowing that this middle-aged man was an experienced “fox” and he must have noticed something different.
“Yes.”
Lin Xun nodded his head.
“Father, don’t waste talking to him, kill him directly!” Rui Qing cried beside.
Lin Xun said with a smile, “My friend, if I didn’t throw you out of the Maple Tower just now, how can you still live until now?”
Lin Xun glimpsed at the ruined restaurant in the distance with a hint when he asked Rui Qing.
Rui Qing shouted angrily, “What the hell you mean? Do I need your help? ”
As he said, he rushed up and tried to slap Lin Xun’s face. The company from his father let him act without any scruples.
But as soon as Rui Qing took action, his father frowned and slapped Rui Qing first, which made Rui Qing stagger, squat on the ground, and scream while covering his face.
“Father…what…what are you doing?”
Rui Qing didn’t believe he was slapped by his father. The servant who came with him all looked stunned and confused.
But the dignified middle-aged man didn’t care Rui Qing’s question. He cupped his hand and bowed to Lin Xun, saying gratefully, “Thank you for ignoring the fault my son have made and kindly helped him out of danger. If I don’t come here in person, I will be almost blinded by my son’s words and cause further misunderstanding.”
“No thanks. It’s just a piece of cake.”
Lin Xun replied casually.
“Father, do you believe this guy’s story?”
Rui Qing yelled.
Clap!
The middle-aged man slapped Rui Qing again, scolding sharply, “Stupid thing, how can you keep your life this time if this Childe didn’t help you?”
“I…”
Rui Qing was stunned and wanted to cry helplessly. How could this guy save his life? By throwing him out of the restaurant?!
Could this be called a help, too?
“Shut up!”
The middle-aged man goggled, which made Rui Qing tremble all over and shut up immediately.
The middle-aged man was really annoyed by his stupid son. Just by looking at the ruined restaurant, he knew that Rui Qing couldn’t survive if he was still staying in it.
Nothing was more important than Rui Qing’s safety even if he was beaten violently and thrown out of the window shamefully before.
“I apologize on behalf of my son. He grows up in Green Willow Town like a frog at the bottom of the well, having a limited outlook. He is so arrogant to offend you. I hope you can forgive his manner.”
The middle-aged man’s attitude was sincere, which made Lin Xun feel amazed about the difference between father and son. The father was as smart as a cunning fox, while the son was as stupid as an idiot. The difference between them was too big.
“My young friend, can I invite you to my humble home and have a banquet to show my gratitude?”
The middle-aged issued an invitation.
At a glance, he could see through that Lin Xun was not an ordinary person although he was dressed simple. Lin Xun’s vibe was extremely unique in his eyes.
“No, thanks. But I’d like to ask you to do me a little favor.”
Lin Xun exclaimed.
The middle-aged was confused by Lin Xun’s words at first but he immediately agreed “What can I do for you?”
“There are 51 dead bodies in the nearby area including the ruins. Please send your subordinates to help me to collect the items they carried.”
Lin Xun said with a smile.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, waved his hand and ordered those subordinates behind him. Then he looked at Lin Xun and whispered with surprise, “My young friend, may I know the story that… that you killed them all?”
Lin Xun smiled without explaining. He didn’t deny what he had done.
Although Lin Xun said nothing, the answer was obviously showed by his expression, which made the dignified middle-aged man take a deep breath out of shock. Through his observation just now, it could be judged that small battle couldn’t destroy the Maple Tower like this.
It proved that the opponents of this young man must be extremely powerful. They must have the cultivation of Human-gang realm at least!
“You’re amazing.”
He did not ask the cause and effect of the battle because he was unwilling to be involved in the storm.
Before long, a group of subordinates returned with a variety of spiritual tools, short crossbows and spiritual bows and piled them up into a hill.
With a glance, the middle-aged man was in a trance for a moment. The Standardized Supreme Crossbow, the Armor Destruction Crossbow, the Flesh Broken Crossbow…
There were not a few crossbows in front of him. There were dozens of crossbows that valued thousands of gold coins in total!
But this was only a small part of the young man’s spoils. In addition, there were dozens sets of inner armor, dozens of boots, dozens of wrist guards, a variety of the high grade of Human-rank spiritual tools and a hundred kinds of elixirs for healing and repairing!
The most shocking thing for the middle-aged man was that whether equipment, weapons or elixirs were all unified systems, which are all of high-quality products that could hardly be bought on the market!
Those subordinates were shocked and fell into silence at the same time. They breathed heavily. Their eyes were red with envy and their greed was blazing.
Rui Qing was even overstated. His eyes almost fell out and his mouth was wide open. There was only one voice echoed in his mind “How much are these worth?!”
“Sorry to tell you that although the things on the dead bodies are valuable, they will bring much trouble and even destroy your life.”
At this time, Lin Xun opened his mouth. His voice was light, but it was like a warning thunder in the middle-aged man’s ears.
His face suddenly changed, and his eyes suddenly burst with frightful coldness. He glanced at his subordinates coldly, “Whoever hides the things when collecting the booty hand it in now, or I will be rude!”
Those subordinates were all stiff. Many of them look unnatural. However, no one admitted that they had taken the opportunity to hide things.
Lin Xun smiled and announced, “Alright, I won’t care this more since you don’t worry about the revenge of those big wigs from the Forbidden City.”
With that said, Lin Xun began to collect the spoils on the ground then.
But his words made all the middle-aged man and his subordinates look different and shocked.
Those dead bodies were practitioners from the Forbidden City, the capital of Empire!?
“I give you the last chance now. Hand it over, and I will not investigate further. If anyone dares to hide such things, I will kill all his family members!”
The middle-aged man roared. He was completely afraid. Whether Lin Xun’s words were true or not, he didn’t want to take chances.
At once, there were seven or eight subordinates standing out and handing over some spiritual instruments, looking depressed.
“Damn you!”
The dignified middle-aged man was raged.
However, Lin Xun smiled and put away all the spoils. He waved and said, “Farewell, everyone.”
As soon as his voice fell, he had strode away.
Seeing Lin Xun’s figure disappearing at the end of the street, the look of dignified middle-aged man changed for some time but finally he sighed and took back his eyes.
“Father, you just …you just let him go in this way?”
Rui Qing was reluctant.
His father was not mad at his son at this moment. He looked gloomy and explained, “Those things are not what we can own.”
“Do you really believe his story?”
Rui Qing was confused.
The middle-aged man waved and asked those subordinates to bring the nearby dead bodies one by one.
Looking at the miserable appearance of those dead bodies, the middle-aged couldn’t help but feel chill and creepy.
He took a deep breath and said, “Look, there are strong Heaven-gang realm practitioners among these dead, but they all met fatal shot and died in the end. That young man did this.”
When they heard this, they were all shocked, including Rui Qing.
The middle-aged man continued, “Think about those weapons, they are the best unified one that can’t be bought on the market. Do you know which force is able to send so many practitioners and spiritual weapons at once?”
At this moment, everyone was shocked by this speculation. They felt chilly scared.
“I have a premonition that the young man didn’t cheat us; these dead bodies… are all powerful people from a big force in the Forbidden City. Only those forces can dispatch so many elite practitioners at once. ”
The middle-aged man looked complex with fear, luck and shock.
“Father, he dares to kill so many people. Isn’t he afraid of reprisals? ”
Rui Qing asked in a trembling voice.
“This is not something we can mix with. Don’t mention it again. Although no one dares to offend us in Green Willow Town, we are nothing in the eyes of those real big forces. Once we are involved in this storm, it will definitely be a disaster for us!”
The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said with his teeth gnashed, “Remember, no one can disclose what happened today, or I promise to kill his all family members!”
All of them nodded and were as silent as hibernating cicadas.
…
At this time, Lin Xun had come out of Green Willow town. It was a shallow jungle with a broad vision in front of him.
According to Lin Xun’s plan, here was the midpoint of his journey. If everything went well, he could reach the Forbidden City in seven days.
Obviously, the next road would be more dangerous, and it was impossible for him to go ahead smoothly.
However, as long as there was no practitioner over the Spirit Gang realm, Lin Xun was not afraid at all.
In the basket, Luoluo was already asleep. The little girl couldn’t stand the fright of fierce battle so Lin Xun drove the power of Sea of Consciousness to hypnotize her at the beginning.
“Xu Qianjing… is a Tactic Master, so the next encirclement and suppression will become more and more dangerous. Fortunately, I can successfully promote my accomplishments to the Earth-gang realm recently. This thing is must beyond the imagination of Xu Qianjing… ”
Lin Xun fell into thinking on his way.
