Chen Mei looked at the fallen youth before her and said lightly, "I beg you, you're too weak!"
Her eyes seemed to carry a disdainful gaze. Instantly, the surrounding assassins all turned to look at Chen Mei. They knew that the youth who had just been defeated was at the peak of the Grandmaster realm! To be knocked down by a single punch from this woman, and seemingly unable to get up, was simply terrifying.
But they were not afraid, because among their group, this youth was the weakest. It was normal for him to be defeated. Then, the leading youth spoke, "Miss, it's best not to meddle in other people's business. We are not afraid of you and don't want trouble. Please leave, or don't blame us."
Chen Mei looked at Chen Tian and asked, "Master, should I take care of all of them?"
"Master!"
Lin Xue was stunned upon hearing Chen Mei's words. So this was the relationship between Chen Tian and Chen Mei. Her expression became meaningful as she looked at Chen Tian. Chen Tian's face darkened. He was misunderstood again. Just as he was about to explain, Lin Xue spoke, "Master Chen, I understand. No need to explain. It's a man's thing, there's a bit of that."
Seeing Lin Xue say that, Chen Tian's face darkened, and he rebuked, "Take care of all of them. Quickly."
His voice seemed to carry a hint of coldness. Chen Mei knew she had spoken incorrectly, but she hadn't fully adapted to that way of speaking yet. She then looked at the crowd and said, "Sorry, my master has spoken, so you all shall remain here!"
The leading youth spoke, "They're together. Attack together. Resolve this quickly."
"Yes!"
Instantly, over a dozen figures rushed towards Chen Tian. But Chen Mei blocked him and said, "Your opponents are me."
Then, Chen Mei's figure flickered. In the crowd, several figures immediately fell to the ground, covered in wounds. Lin Xue was still worried that Chen Mei couldn't handle them alone. Just as she was about to act, she was stunned by what she saw.
Then, Chen Mei's figure appeared before Chen Tian and said, "Master, it's done."
Chen Tian glared at her, and Chen Mei stood quietly behind him, not daring to make a sound.
Chen Tian then walked up to the leading youth. The leading youth looked at Chen Mei behind Chen Tian and said, "You are a Martial King, how is that possible? According to our information, the highest level in the Lin family is the Grandmaster realm, followed by the Minor Accomplishment Martial Master. When did a Martial King appear?"
Chen Tian approached the young man and asked, "Tell me your purpose. Why do you want to kill Lin Xue? And where is your organization?"
"Kid, do you think we'll tell you? Dream on!"
Chen Tian looked at the leading youth and asked, "You really won't say?"
"No."
Chen Tian's expression tightened. Instantly, the surrounding assassins turned to dust and drifted into the sky. The young man was stunned by the sight and said, "You're a monster, you're not human."
He had never seen anything like this. In an instant, his companions were dead, silently. That meant the other party could have killed him long ago. They were truly courting death.
"I should have never taken this mission. What were they thinking? Why is there no information on someone like this!"
The youth cursed in his heart. It wasn't Chen Tian's fault. Chen Tian rarely appeared in normal situations, making it difficult for their people to find him. Moreover, Chen Tian only met with the Lin family when there was something to discuss. When he wasn't busy, Chen Tian would stay at home playing games, let alone go out. How could their people find information about him? They hadn't even seen Chen Tian's face, and they didn't even know if he was a martial artist.
Then Chen Tian said, "Still not talking? If not, you'll join them and turn to dust!"
The youth said fearfully, "I'll talk, I was sent by...!"
Instantly, a black aura appeared around him. Chen Tian said, "Fall back!"
The three of them retreated in unison. An explosion rang out, and the young man instantly burst into fragments, black energy emanating from his corpse.
Chen Tian murmured, "As expected of the methods of the Evil Spirit Clan. This aura is exactly the same. It seems the Evil Spirit Clan has already infiltrated the real world."
Chen Tian also needed to carefully consider his future plans. He couldn't keep playing games all the time. If he only focused on games, who knew what would happen to the world when he logged out one day. That wouldn't be good.
Chen Tian waved his hand, and the entire corpse turned to dust and floated into the sky. Chen Tian then approached Lin Xue and asked, "Do you have any idea why they are trying to assassinate you?"
Lin Xue becoming a target of the Evil Spirit Clan made Chen Tian very curious. What was so attractive about Lin Xue to them, or was it Lin Xue herself?
Lin Xue said, "I don't know. I only know that my grandfather told me to protect myself. That car was also specially modified by my grandfather for me to drive. Who knew this would happen. Perhaps my grandfather knows something."
Chen Tian directly grabbed the arms of Lin Xue and Chen Mei. Lin Xue's face turned red. Just as she was about to struggle, a light flashed, and the three of them disappeared from the highway.
Linjiang City. This was a vast city. Three beams of light appeared in a dark alley. Lin Xue opened her eyes and looked at the scene before her, stunned. This, she couldn't believe. One moment she was on the highway, and now she was in the city.
Chen Tian said, "I don't know where the Lin family is. Teleportation can only bring us to Linjiang City. Lin Xue, you'll have to lead the way. We need to see Elder Lin as soon as possible."
"Okay!"
Lin Xue didn't know how to express her emotions. Teleportation. Even a Martial God couldn't achieve this, right? How powerful was Chen Tian's strength?
However, what mattered now was not this. Lin Xue led Chen Tian and quickly headed towards the Lin family's residence.
As the Lin family was the dominant family in Linjiang City, under Lin Xue's guidance, they soon entered a huge manor. Chen Tian looked at the heavily armed manor, as if it was on guard. Chen Tian knew that the Lin family's situation was likely not good.
Then, led by Lin Xue, Chen Tian and the two of them arrived at the Lin family's main hall. Lin Xue said, "Grandfather is resting. I'll go call him. Master Chen, please rest here for a while."
Chen Tai nodded and sat on the sofa. Chen Mei, in a thoughtful manner, picked up the teapot from the table. Just as she was about to make a pot of tea for Chen Tian, a voice rang out.
"Put down that teapot. Do you know its value? Can you afford it if you break it?"
Chen Mei ignored the voice and continued to pick up the teapot to make tea for Chen Tian. But the owner of the voice was clearly more angered. He appeared above Chen Mei's hand, then grabbed Chen Mei's arm and said, "Put down the teapot. And who are you people? This is the Lin family, not a place for people like you to enter freely. What are the security guards doing? Come, throw them out."
Chen Mei looked at the rude and unreasonable young man before her, put down the teapot, flicked his arm away, and said, "So what if we appeared here? What do you want?"
