The young man, about 1.8 meters tall, met Lin Xiaotian's gaze for a fleeting moment, flashed a sinister smile, and turned to leave.
Lin Xiaotian was the center of everyone's attention.
But in the next moment, they watched as Lin Xiaotian's figure vanished before their very eyes.
"What the heck... where did he go?"
"Did we just see a ghost? How did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"
Everyone was stunned.
Only Chu Nianxue knew how fast Lin Xiaotian could move. Back when she was in danger, Lin Xiaotian had carried her and instantly appeared dozens of meters away.
Had he discovered something new?
She felt a pang of worry. She had expected a smooth day, but before they had even entered, someone was already causing trouble.
Who could it be?
At this moment, Lin Xiaotian was already standing at the event across from the antique street.
Before him was the young man from earlier.
"Not bad, your intuition is sharp. However, your methods just now were a bit too ruthless. You nearly drove a person mad."
Lin Xiaotian said with a smile, "Then do you want to try it?"
"Sure, come at me if you dare. I'll let you have three moves. If you can touch me, I'll admit defeat."
The young man's face held a confident smile. Then, his aura unfurled, like a drawn sword, exuding an unstoppable sharpness.
An ordinary person facing him now might instinctively lower their head and tremble.
When one's strength reaches a certain level, it is a transformation of life.
The young man's strength had already reached the Xiantian realm. With a single step forward, he exuded an oppressive force like an approaching storm.
A cold curve formed at the corner of his lips.
"You can't handle my pressure now, can you? Don't force a smile, you're just an ordinary person."
"You're like an ant before me. If I want to crush you, it's as easy as pie."
Lin Xiaotian's smile widened. "Who gave you the courage?"
"What?"
The young man thought he misheard and subconsciously asked.
But in the next second.
Lin Xiaotian took a step, appearing like an illusion before the young man, and then slapped him hard.
The young man felt a burning pain on his face, his head involuntarily turning to the side from the force.
He was stunned by the blow.
"Who gave you the courage to be so confident?"
Lin Xiaotian smiled and grabbed his hair, then with another *slap, slap*, he used the young man's hair to slam him against the wall.
The brick wall couldn't withstand his force.
It was directly smashed into a hole.
The young man's eyes rolled back, and he had fainted.
"So you don't have iron bones either, yet you were so cocky!" Lin Xiaotian said with a half-smile, stepping on the young man's ankle.
*Crack...*
The sound of bone breaking.
A scream followed.
But in the next second.
Lin Xiaotian directly stomped on his neck, and the scream was cut short.
His eyes bulged, his expression contorted into a ferocious grimace, and he gritted out a sentence through clenched teeth.
"I am Wu Gaoyang of Diancang Mountain..."
But after uttering these few words, he could no longer make a sound. All the air was squeezed from his lungs, and the foot pressed down harder, as if it could snap his neck at any moment.
He could feel his spine groaning under the immense pressure.
If it continued, his spine might truly break.
Fear finally flickered in his eyes.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and lifted his foot. "Who is Wu Chengming to you?"
After coughing violently for a while, Wu Gaoyang, breathing heavily, replied with suppressed anger, "He's my elder brother."
"You've met my brother?"
"So he's your brother. Why didn't you say so earlier? Wu Chengming and I are good brothers. He calls me Big Brother. What were you showing off for in front of me? Does it feel good to get beaten now?"
Seeing the mocking look in Lin Xiaotian's eyes.
Wu Gaoyang couldn't help but shiver.
He knew that if he dared to deny it, he would likely be slapped in the face the next moment.
He spat out a few words, holding his breath.
"I submit!"
At this moment, he was even more shocked by Lin Xiaotian's strength. If the other party had a knife in his hand, he would be lying in a pool of blood right now.
His speed was far beyond what he could contend with; he was at least a Grandmaster.
Lin Xiaotian patted Wu Gaoyang's shoulder with a smile. "Since you submit and you're Wu Chengming's brother, you're my junior brother now."
"Tell me, who sent you to deal with me?"
"How did you know..." Wu Gaoyang regretted speaking after a few words.
His face turned grim.
Lin Xiaotian smiled. "If you don't want to say, that's fine. I can't treat Wu's brother any differently."
"This pill is for you."
He took out a small jade bottle from his person, poured out a black pill, and tossed it over.
Wu Gaoyang took the pill with confusion.
After a careful look, his expression changed drastically, and he glanced greedily at the jade bottle in Lin Xiaotian's hand.
Without hesitation, he popped it into his mouth, then sat down on the ground and began to cultivate.
Within a few minutes, his Xiantian cultivation directly broke through to the peak.
"What kind of medicine is this?"
"In just a few minutes, it saved me at least several years."
His gaze was burning with desire. "You gave me such a precious pill just because you heard my brother's name. Are you trying to reconcile with me?"
Lin Xiaotian nodded with a smile. "You can interpret it that way. After all, you'll be my junior brother from now on."
Wu Gaoyang took a few deep breaths, his greed becoming even more apparent. "It seems my brother's strength has broken through to Grandmaster, which is why you're wary of him. You don't want to offend my brother, so you gave me this medicine?"
"I didn't know you were such a master before. Now, I can agree to reconcile, but you must give me all the medicine you have."
Hearing this, Lin Xiaotian couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm afraid you wouldn't dare to take it!"
"There's nothing I don't dare to take. Give it to me now."
Wu Gaoyang licked his lips, his greed making him forget the strange sensation in his body, and he casually scratched himself.
At this moment, he had already extended his hand towards Lin Xiaotian.
"Give me the medicine, and this matter is settled. I won't tell my brother about this."
Lin Xiaotian smiled. "No rush, feel your own condition first."
"No need to feel it, I already clearly sensed it. I've broken through to Xiantian peak. If I have one more pill, I'll directly enter the Grandmaster realm."
