He had to agree or the Feiyun villagers would be slaughtered!

Yao Tuohai had made a name for himself many years ago and had great experiences in battle so if he said so, it meant that he wouldn’t have any mercy.

Any other people would have crumbled already under such intense pressure and after walking into a trap alone.

But Lin Xun didn’t. Even if he was filled with endless anger and hatred, his expression remained calm and indifferent.

“Yao Tuohai, do you think you’ve won?” Lin Xun’s voice was unusually calm, without a ripple of emotion. It was as though Yao Tuohai’s so-called threat didn’t affect him in the slightest.

Clang!

A sword as clear as the spring in autumn appeared in Yao Tuohai’s grip, and he lunged it towards the throat of a villager, scraping their skin.

Then, he smiled. “Are you sure you want to try?”

The atmosphere suddenly stiffened, and everyone’s chest tightened. It seemed that a bloody incident would break out if Lin Xun refused to obey.

Lin Xun didn’t waste time talking nonsense with them and just raised his hand into the air.

His action shocked many people. What is that guy doing?

Only Yao Tuohai seemed to notice something, as his pupils rapidly shrank.

Rumble!

At the same time, a thunderous roar suddenly sounded behind Lin Xun, and an intermediate-grade battleship over a hundred feet long ripped apart the clouds like an air fortress and came roaring in their direction.

Mighty Eagle Battleship!

It was equipped with heavy firepower and was strong enough to kill Heaven Ascension experts. It was a powerful weapon usually only seen on the battlefield on the frontier.

However, such a battleship had suddenly appeared in the Yao Clan in Qingfeng County, making Yao Clan members look a little startled and perplexed.

This Qingfeng County was a territory of their Yao Family!

However, an intermediate-grade battleship of the empire unbelievably appeared without them realizing it!

Yao Tuohai furrowed his brows slightly, but he didn’t panic and just watched quietly.

Rumble!

The Mighty Eagle Battleship landed, the hatch opened, and figures walked out one after another in a mighty manner.

Those figures were, no doubt, extraordinary people. All of them looked imposing and formidable. Some were even at the Heaven Ascension Stage!

Moreover, there wasn’t only one, but a group of them...

What was that about?

In the entire Qingfeng County, there were only a handful of Heaven Ascension experts, but an army of them had appeared. Their appearance was not only spectacular but also shocking!

It was extremely difficult to gather so many Heaven Ascension cultivators in the southwest province!

Could they be reinforcements that Lin Xun called?

The Yao Family members’ expressions morphed indefinitely.

They adopted strategies such as diversion and underhanded means to trick Lin Xun into leaving Forbidden City and traveling to Donglin City. Then, they lured him to Qingfeng County. They had gone to such trouble to prevent other forces from helping Lin Xun, but who would have thought it still happened?!

“That despicable little bastard knew that he wasn’t coming alone!”

“Damn it, how did he do it? It’s only been two days. How did he mobilize so many forces?”

“We received a report that Lin Xun hadn’t alerted anyone when he left the Forbidden City, but how could this happen?”

The Yao Family cursed in anger and panic. They no longer looked as smug as before knowing that the situation wasn’t in their favor anymore.

“Lin Xun, if you think that you can save the villagers by inviting some helpers here, then you are very wrong!” Yao Tuohai uttered in a deep voice.

Even at that moment, there wasn’t a tinge of panic or fear on his face.

Lin Xun had to admit that Yao Tuohai was indeed an extremely difficult opponent. At least, he was much superior to ordinary people in terms of courage and calmness in dangerous situations.

But before Lin Xun said a word, Yao Tuohai’s face started to change and he cried out, “How...is this possible?”

He saw a group of tied-up figures being escorted out of the Mighty Eagle Battleship like prisoners.

There were hundreds of people!

All of them were from his Yao Family!

Regardless of how calm he always was, he couldn’t stop a wave of panic from sweeping over him.

Only three days had passed since Lin Xun left the Forbidden City, but the youth was able to mobilize such a powerful group of cultivators to assist him as well as capture all the Yao Family members from various places. He was too terrifying!

It should be mentioned that Qingfeng County was under Yao Tuohai’s control, but he failed to notice anything abnormal from beginning to end!

That suggested the forces helping Lin Xun were incredibly powerful!

“My heavens! Young Master Yukun from the First Elder’s residence, Miss Fangfei from Third Elder’s residence and Young Master Yuting from Ninth Elder’s residence...They...how come they were all captured?”

The Yao Clan members exclaimed in disbelief, their hands and feet became ice-cold, and their faces were overcast.

They thought that they had Lin Xun in their control and that he came alone this time, but a Mighty Eagle Battleship suddenly descended and brought a group of powerful Heaven Ascension cultivators.

Not only that, hundreds of people of the Yao Clan had been captured!

The clansmen at the front were all direct descendants of the Yao Clan!

The atmosphere suddenly became still and silent. The series of changes happened so fast and so abruptly that the entire Yao Family was still in a state of shock and couldn’t calm down.

The wind howled.

The Mighty Eagle Battleship landed to the ground, and a group of experts gathered behind Lin Xun under the leadership of Mu Wansu.

The captured Yao Family members were set down in front of the Yao Family in the distance like prisoners, their faces gloomy and full of despair.

Their situation couldn\'t be clearer.

Lin Xun didn’t come alone, but instead brought an army of terrifying forces that consisted of people from Stone Cauldron Alms, the Ning Family, the Ye Family and the Gong Family.

The captured Yao Family members had no doubt become Lin Xun’s trump cards and reversed his situation.

After a long silence, Yao Tuohai sighed out loud, “The younger generations are terrifying. In just three days, you managed to secretly make so many arrangements without me knowing. You amaze me.”

His confidence still hadn’t been shaken, and he seemed calm and composed.

“You think too much. I’m just fighting fire with fire. If you weren’t so despicable, why would I need to put up such a fight?” Lin Xun said coldly. “Stop talking nonsense. Let those villagers go, and I will release the people from your Yao Clan.”

“An exchange?” Yao Tuohai’s eyes were deep and unfathomable.

“Patriarch! Absolutely not! If you do that, then our advantage...”

“Patriarch, we put in a lot of effort to achieve today’s situation. How can we let that bastard Lin Xun get what he wants?”

“As a member of the Yao Clan, we should be willing to sacrifice ourselves for the clan. No matter what, we can’t agree to his conditions!”

The Yao family members all cried anxiously. They all understood that if they released the villagers, they would have nothing to threaten Lin Xun and a fierce battle would be bound to break out between them and the experts that Lin Xun brought.

The Yao Family was very likely to suffer serious and unimaginable damage as a result!

Who would want to let Lin Xun get what he wanted?!

“Do as he says!”

Unexpectedly, Yao Tuohai said decisively, “They are also members of my Yao Family. If I can save their lives for those lowly villagers, I have no hesitation.”

“Lowly villagers?”

A cold, murderous glint flashed in Lin Xun’s eyes. “The entire Yao Family combined is not as precious as them!”

Yao Tuohai’s face was expressionless as if he was too lazy to argue with Lin Xun.

After that, the two sides began to exchange hostages. Nothing unexpected happened in the process, but the Yao Family members’ eyes were seething. It was a kind of humiliation to them.

When Lin Xun rescued all the villagers in Feiyun Village, the tight string in his heart finally relaxed, like the heaviest rock in his heart had been lifted.

Village Chief Xiao Tianren and the others were so happy that they rambled incoherently. It never crossed their minds that they would have a chance to live again.

Lin Xun asked Mu Wansu to take care of them and brought them into the battleship to rest before turning his gaze to Yao Tuohai in the distance.

Instantly, Lin Xun’s bearing changed. The murderous intent that he had long suppressed erupted. The villagers he cared about the most had been rescued, and it was time to settle things!

The experts from Stone Cauldron Alms, the Ning Family, Gong Family and other behemoth clans were all waiting for that moment.

Murderous intent rose into the sky like smoke signals, making the clouds roil, the sky darken and the atmosphere stifling.

On the Yao Family’s side, everyone looked serious and solemn. They all knew that a battle was inevitable.

It determined the life and death of the Yao Family!

They were just upset that, without the villagers of Feiyun Village as hostages, the strength of the Yao Family alone wouldn’t be enough to stop their opponents.

They were not pessimistic, but they knew well that their opponents were too strong. They were an army of Heaven Ascension cultivators!

They could move unhindered in the southwest province of the empire!

The Yao Family was only an overlord of Qingfeng County, and Yao Tuohai was the only Heaven Ascension expert in the entire clan. How could they not be pessimistic?

However, Yao Tuohai appeared extremely calm. Moreover, there was an almost imperceptible tinge of excitement in the eyes.

He swept an expressionless glance over Lin Xun and the experts behind him and sneered, “Lin Xun, do you think you have won? You are wrong! I already told you that you can’t change anything today. You are doomed regardless of how many reinforcements you have! All of you will be wiped out!”
