"Good boy, you actually found me and resisted with your true energy. I'll see today how you can stop me."
Bai Guang landed steadily, his white robe containing immense power. White claws emerged from each hand, and a slight smirk played on his lips as he continued to pursue Lin Xiaotian's car.
Lin Xiaotian had initially thought his previous strike would be enough to deter his pursuer, but he soon saw the beam of light reappear.
This time, he could clearly see the man's face. He looked like an assassin, moving with incredible speed and apparent ease.
In the martial arts world, he had never encountered such a formidable opponent.
"This is interesting. Since you want to play so badly, I'll indulge you."
Lin Xiaotian muttered to himself, then turned to Ye Wantong and said, "Girl, pull over at the next intersection. I have something to take care of."
"What? Stop now? The event will be over soon," Ye Wantong pouted, displeased.
"Don't worry, it won't take long."
Lin Xiaotian reassured her with a smile. As the car reached the intersection ahead, he turned right and quickly stopped by the roadside. Lin Xiaotian got out of the car alone.
*Swish!*
His figure vanished in an instant, as fast as light, leaving Ye Wantong stunned.
"What is this guy up to? He's not going to go back on his word, is he? Running off so fast!" Ye Wantong wondered.
Lin Xiaotian rapidly charged towards the direction of the white light. The white light was still pursuing him, never expecting Lin Xiaotian to come looking for him directly.
"Not good!"
As he charged forward, he suddenly saw a beam of tri-colored light flying towards him from ahead, startling him into a shout.
At this moment, he had no chance to dodge. The two beams of light collided head-on with a thunderous roar. His vision was completely engulfed by the colorful light, and his body felt a shockwave, being flung away by the powerful energy wave.
*Thump, thump, thump!*
Both of them tumbled over the right-side barrier and landed in the bridge underpass below.
Lin Xiaotian revealed his true form and looked at the white-robed man clutching his chest, letting out a soft哼 and asking, "Who are you? Who sent you to deal with me?"
"Lin Xiaotian, how could you possibly discover me? I am a master of the Land Immortal realm."
The white-robed man was full of surprise. Before coming, he had made thorough preparations regarding Lin Xiaotian, not only knowing his true strength but also believing he could defeat him by breaking through the Golden Gate and completing his mission.
However, the moment they collided, he found Lin Xiaotian's Golden Gate incredibly solid, impossible to destroy.
Lin Xiaotian's smile remained, and after sizing him up and pondering for a moment, he suddenly chuckled, "I know, you wouldn't happen to be the 'Soul Reaper' that Shao Hongyun told me about, would you?"
"Judging by your speed, you certainly seem like you reap souls, and your specialty is those two claws, so 'Soul Reaper' is a fitting name."
"Hmph, since you know my title, why don't you surrender quickly? You're no match for me."
The white-robed man snorted coldly, disbelieving that Lin Xiaotian could defeat him. He forced himself to stand up, still clutching his chest.
He firmly believed that what he had just seen must have been an illusion!
*Boom!*
As soon as he got up and prepared to counter-attack Lin Xiaotian, he suddenly saw Lin Xiaotian circulating his true energy again. A burst of tri-colored light erupted from his body, and he shot forward like a rocket.
"What?"
He had never seen such speed. Seeing the impending threat, he hastily raised his arms to block. However, despite his utmost effort, he could not withstand Lin Xiaotian's attack. Lin Xiaotian's punch sent him flying dozens of meters.
His body, completely out of control in mid-air, crashed to the ground repeatedly before finally falling. The moment he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and many of his meridians were shattered by the immense force.
Lin Xiaotian appeared before him in a flash, placing a foot on his chest and saying dismissively, "You 'Soul Reaper,' you're not much after all. You're still too green to contend with me."
"How can this be? How could you defeat me? Aren't you also in the Land Immortal realm? How could I not be your opponent?"
The Soul Reaper looked at Lin Xiaotian in disbelief. He hadn't even had a chance to unleash his ancient soul-snatching dart. The strength of this young man before him was terrifying.
Lin Xiaotian smiled calmly, shrugging his shoulders, "A mere Land Immortal realm, you think that's the strongest? You're far too naive."
"To tell you the truth, my strength has already surpassed the Land Immortal realm and reached the Heavenly Master realm. You probably haven't even heard of such a realm in the martial arts world, have you?"
"Heavenly Master realm? So the Land Immortal realm isn't the highest realm in the martial arts world?"
The Soul Reaper felt his understanding of the world completely collapse. He had endured unimaginable hardships to reach the Land Immortal realm, cultivating tirelessly every day, only to discover that his lifelong pursuit was not the highest realm.
Furthermore, his hard-won achievement had been so easily defeated by a mere youngster!
"That's right. Martial arts trash like you are not fit to cultivate martial arts. Go home and grow sweet potatoes."
Lin Xiaotian waved his hand, dismissing him. The man's spirit seemed to have broken. He suddenly leaped up from the ground, raised his hands, and let out a wild roar. The surrounding mountains and rivers exploded with a deafening sound.
He unleashed all his remaining strength, and his meridians were shattered by the overwhelming bloodline pressure at that moment. He died on the spot!
Lin Xiaotian looked at his end and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "Why did you have to do this? Cultivating ancient martial arts is not easy. After just a few words from me, you broke your own meridians and committed suicide. You truly bring shame to the martial arts world."
"It seems your Divine Ghost Sect is nothing special either!"
With that, Lin Xiaotian walked over to him and began to search his body.
He eventually found a Divine Ghost Token, which served as proof of identity, and an invitation letter.
Opening the envelope and reading carefully, he saw that the letter was signed by Song Yao at the end. The content of the letter was Song Yao sincerely inviting him to deal with himself!
Knowing the truth of the matter, Lin Xiaotian let out a soft哼, paid it no further mind, and directly boarded the bridge, getting back into Ye Wantong's car.
Seeing him return, Ye Wantong blinked her beautiful eyes and asked curiously, "Where did you just go? I thought you were going to go back on your word and run away."
"How could I? I just went to stretch my muscles. Everything is fine now, let's go."
Lin Xiaotian did not explain the details of what had happened. Knowing too much would only bring her unfavorable consequences.
Ten minutes later, they arrived at the Shihao Villa Sales Center.
As soon as they got out of the car, they saw a very luxurious sales building with glass curtain walls fifty stories high. The company entrance also had an independent fountain garden, exuding grandeur!
This real estate development was very famous throughout the province, having become a symbol of top-tier luxury housing in people's minds.
Each villa was exceptionally well-located and uniquely designed. Those who lived in Shihao Villas were all exceptional individuals!
"Yaoyao, this is it. Today, I will buy you a villa to prove my sincerity to you."
Just then, a familiar voice drifted from afar.
