As soon as Lin Xiaotian's voice fell, he suddenly threw a punch.
The scar-faced man's eyeballs bulged out, his Adam's apple wanting to move, but Lin Xiaotian's hand was tightly gripping his neck.
The red blood vessels in his eyes instantly intensified, and his stomach churned as if it wanted to spew out, but it was all stuck in his throat, directly entering his windpipe.
Lin Xiaotian's lips curved into a wicked smile, then he let go and threw the man aside.
When the scar-faced man landed on the ground, he immediately vomited. The violent coughing made his face turn red, and at this moment, he only wanted to expel his stomach.
After less than a minute, he finally felt a little better, but when he looked up, he saw a shoe sole.
"Bang!"
He was directly kicked in the face. As he tumbled through the air and fell to the ground, he felt like the world was spinning.
Lin Xiaotian placed one foot on his face and said with a smile, "Young master has given you a chance. I'll start counting down ten seconds now."
"If you still don't want to talk by then, don't blame young master for being impolite."
After speaking, he gradually increased the pressure of his foot.
The scar-faced man felt as if his head was being crushed by Mount Tai, as if it was about to explode. His composure gradually turned into fear in his eyes.
He wanted to speak, but he was being stepped on so hard that his jaw couldn't make a sound, only a choked whimper came from his throat.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and lifted his foot, "Almost forgot, your jaw is being stepped on too hard, you can't speak."
"Now you can honestly confess. Who sent you?"
The scar-faced man sat up from the ground. He still felt dizzy, but when he saw Lin Xiaotian's eyes, it was like a basin of cold water poured over him, making him shiver all over.
His eyes were also filled with fear. He clearly understood the meaning in Lin Xiaotian's eyes.
If he didn't confess honestly today, Lin Xiaotian would probably kill him directly.
"I really just came to tell you a piece of news. I'm Brother Long's subordinate. Our Brother Long wants to get an item from Ye Wantong."
"Brother Long found out some news that you provided that treasure to Ye Wantong. He plans to deal with it from the source because he knows there's definitely more than one such treasure."
"Our Brother Long said that as long as you give him those treasures, whether it's money or people, he can give you anything you want."
Lin Xiaotian had already guessed that this matter would cause some trouble, but he didn't expect the trouble to come so quickly, and to be detected so soon.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and a sharp cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"Your Brother Long's news is really well-informed. I'm curious where he got the information. Did Ye Wantong tell him?"
"That's not it. Our Brother Long's source of information is the antique street." The scar-faced man's fear intensified as he said this. "I've told you all the information."
"You've got it all from me, so let me go. I know I'm no match for you. Can you give me a chance? I'm just a messenger."
Lin Xiaotian said with a half-smile, "Young master will give you a chance, but your Brother Long has already sent such a great gift. Wouldn't it be impolite of me not to reciprocate?"
"How about this, you take this thing to your Brother Long. As long as he gets this, he'll know what to do."
After speaking, Lin Xiaotian produced a small jade pendant shaped like a gourd.
The item was only half a thumb in size, looking very small and delicate.
The scar-faced man nervously took the item and looked at it, somewhat bewildered. "Are you sure that after giving this to our Brother Long, he'll know what to do?"
Even he was confused. His Brother Long had never met Lin Xiaotian.
They didn't know each other at all. If he hadn't received the news and immediately found Lin Xiaotian to act as a messenger, he wouldn't even have seen Lin Xiaotian's daughter.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and said, "Of course I'm sure. After you give this to your Brother Long, he'll naturally know what young master means."
"Also, let me tell you something. Don't go to the villa to find me, and don't come to the company. Call me if there's anything. Young master will write the number on you."
The scar-faced man nodded like a pecking chicken.
He had no power to resist in front of the other party. Killing him would be easier than crushing a chick.
The moment he nodded, Lin Xiaotian's blade flashed, and the sharp glint almost scared his soul away.
Lin Xiaotian's face showed a satisfied smile. "Good. This phone number has been carved on your face. When you go back, your Brother Long will be able to see it clearly."
"Now you can scram. If you're not convinced, you can come find me anytime."
The scar-faced man was almost scared stiff, his heart pounding in his throat.
In that instant, he only saw the glint of a blade, but he didn't see where the blade was. Yet, he felt like he was hanging on the brink of death, ready to be irrecoverably damned at any moment.
He had only carved a phone number on his face. Who knew if he had angered Lin Xiaotian, or what his fate would be.
Without daring to hesitate, he scrambled away.
Lin Xiaotian opened the car door and got in. He knew that even the best car couldn't prevent people from the underworld from opening it, no matter how they did it. Since the door was open, he didn't bother to care.
As he drove towards the jewelry store, the scar-faced man finally arrived at a club.
Standing in front of the most luxurious private room, he gently knocked on the door.
A deep, powerful voice came from inside.
"Enter!"
"Brother Long, I just went to see Lin Xiaotian and conveyed all your words to him. He gave me this thing. I don't know what it's for. He said that after you receive it, you'll know what to do."
Brother Long, sitting behind the table, had slightly graying hair. When he looked up, his square face looked fierce.
His thick eyebrows were furrowed. He took the small jade gourd handed to him by the scar-faced man.
"Did Lin Xiaotian say anything else?"
The scar-faced man quickly shook his head, "No. Lin Xiaotian seemed very unhappy when he found me. He beat me badly. I had no power to resist in front of him. He's a master."
"A master?"
"I like dealing with masters." Brother Long revealed a cold, mocking smile.
