84: Chapter 84 Killing the Eldest Young Master of the Lin Family
A group of Young Masters walked toward them and immediately noticed Lin Xueyue, freezing in their tracks for a moment.
Lin Xueyue wanted to turn and leave, but the white-robed youth leading the group sneered, "Oh? Isn't this the former number one Genius of the Lin Family? Didn't you swear to cut all ties and break off relations with the Lin Family? How do you still have the face to return to the capital?"
"Could it be that you couldn't survive out there and have come back to beg the Family for forgiveness?"
Upon hearing this, the Young Masters around him burst into raucous laughter, filling the air with a jovial atmosphere.
Lin Xueyue's expression darkened.
She looked coldly at the white-robed youth and said in a frigid tone, "Lin Mobai, shut your filthy mouth! Whether I return to the capital or not has nothing to do with you!"
Lin Mobai sneered, "It's been over a decade, and not only has your skill regressed, but your temper has become quite explosive!"
"Don't forget, you are no longer the number one Genius of the Lin Family; you are nothing but a cripple!"
"And I am the Young Master of the Lin Family!"
"You have quite some nerve, daring to scold me…"
Lin Mobai looked Lin Xueyue up and down, his eyes filled with lewdness. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. Over a decade has passed, and you've become much fuller. It really is different once a woman is married… I've always had a thing for that!"
"Someone, seize this bitch who dared to offend me and take her to my manor! Everyone will get a turn later…"
Following his order, many of the men around Lin Mobai let out lewd chuckles and began to surround Lin Xueyue.
"You are going too far!" Even Yang Yao was infuriated. She immediately drew her sword, a fierce glint in her eyes.
"Swish!" At that moment, Ji Taichang's gaze turned icy. No one could track his movements; there was only a flash of brilliant Sword Qi. The dozen or so Cultivators, all of whom possessed extraordinary strength, froze in place before their heads rolled to the ground. Blood sprayed out, staining the earth red.
This scene caused the pupils of Lin Mobai and his group to constrict, their faces filled with shock and rage!
"Presumptuous! You have some nerve, daring to kill people from the Lin Family in the capital!"
Lin Mobai roared, and a powerful aura at the sixth level of the Golden Core Stage erupted from his body, bearing down on Ji Taichang and his companions!
The dozen Young Masters beside him also looked furious, drawing their weapons and Magical Artifacts. Powerful auras surged forth, locking onto Ji Taichang and his group.
This scene attracted the attention of numerous Cultivators on the street, all of whom looked on in astonishment.
"Hiss—isn't that the Young Master of the Lin Family? He's a tyrant in the capital; who would dare to provoke him?!"
"The Lin Family is one of the three great Families of the Great Wu Dynasty. Furthermore, we are in the capital—this is the Lin Family's territory! Have these three greenhorns lost their minds?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. These three greenhorns killed people from the Lin Family. We're in for a show now."
The crowd whispered among themselves, gathering around to watch the spectacle.
"Who do you think you're posturing for!" Facing the arrogant Lin Mobai, Ji Taichang walked right up and slapped him across the face!
He was incredibly fast, appearing before Lin Mobai as if teleporting, moving too quickly for anyone to react.
With a crisp "slap," Lin Mobai went flying, slamming into the wall behind him. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face swelling up like a pig's head, all his teeth knocked out!
"What!?" "Young Master Lin! Young Master Lin, are you alright?"
This sudden turn of events shocked the Young Masters around Lin Mobai, and they rushed over to help him up.
The onlookers were astonished, their eyes widening in shock.
"Hiss—this man has guts!"
"That's the most favored son of the Head of the Lin Family. It's always been the Young Master bullying others; to think he'd be slapped in the middle of the street today. That greenhorn is dead for sure!"
"Don't jump to conclusions yet. The capital is full of hidden talents; perhaps this man has a terrifying background of his own?"
"Unless he's from the Great Wu Dynasty imperial Family, who could possibly outrank the Young Master?"
"Hard to say." The crowd whispered among themselves. Seeing the Young Master of the Lin Family get beaten, their eyes grew even more excited.
Lin Mobai's hands trembled as he clutched his swollen face, his eyes burning with rage!
"Y-you bastard!" he stammered. "H-how dare you hit me! Kill him! Kill him!"
Lin Mobai's teeth had been knocked out, causing him to lisp. His eyes were bloodshot as he let out a hysterical roar!
"You dare harm the Young Master? You've paved your own road to death!"
The Young Masters around him were surprisingly loyal. They shouted fiercely and swung their weapons and Magical Artifacts, charging at Ji Taichang.
"You don't know when to die!" Ji Taichang smirked and stomped his foot forward. A shocking wave of energy erupted from him, rippling outward in all directions.
Everywhere the energy passed, the dozen Young Masters were sent flying. Before they even hit the ground, they exploded into clouds of blood mist!
This horrifying scene caused everyone present to recoil in shock, their hearts filled with turmoil!
One had to realize that among those Young Masters were several experts at the Golden Core Stage!
"Hiss!" "He didn't just kill over a dozen people from the Lin Family; he killed the Young Masters from the Li Family, the Wang Family, the Jinhui Sect, and other Sect and Family powers! Has he gone mad?!"
"All because the Young Master teased his woman?"
"Now he hasn't just offended the Lin Family; he's offended several Sects and Families all at once!"
"Holy crap, this young man!"
The surrounding crowd couldn't help but exclaim in shock. They whispered among themselves, looking at Ji Taichang as if he were a monster.
Anyone who hung around the Young Master was either wealthy or noble, possessing an extraordinary status. By killing these people, Ji Taichang had invited massive trouble upon himself!
"Y-you… you dare to kill them? You're dead!" Even Lin Mobai froze, his body trembling slightly, his eyes filled with a mix of fear, shock, and rage!
"Senior Ji, spare his life for now…" Lin Xueyue tried to warn him, but Ji Taichang had already pointed a finger at Lin Mobai, a faint Sword Qi flashing into existence.
"Bang!" At the critical moment, a black shadow appeared like a ghost, raising a curved blade to block the Sword Qi.
It was a guard clad in black armor, standing before Lin Mobai and exuding a formidable aura.
"Uncle Chen, you're finally here!" Upon seeing the black-armored guard, Lin Mobai felt as if he had grabbed a lifeline, and he immediately straightened his back!
"Uncle Chen, kill this little bastard for me!" "No… I want to imprison him and torture him properly!"
Lin Mobai's face was twisted with hatred. "He dared to slap me and kill so many of my brothers! I'm not done with him!"
"And that bitch Lin Xueyue, I'm going to humiliate her severely! I'm going to, right in front of this little bastard…"
But his words were cut short!
Ji Taichang's gaze turned icy. An invisible, terrifying Soul Power spread forth, and the pressure of a Nascent Soul erupted. On the spot, Lin Mobai's head was shattered, exploding like a ripe watermelon into a cloud of blood mist!
