Tycoon War God

Arrogance!

Insolence!

Provoking Han Xiu once more!

Who on earth was this person?

Everyone looked toward Han Xiu, their eyes filled with astonishment and doubt. How had Han Xiu offended this person so grievously that he would come to their very doorstep to provoke him like this? He even threatened to annihilate the entire Han Family!

”What an insolent whelp!” The Patriarch of the Han Family, having been ignored time and again, was utterly enraged. ”Boy, I don’t care who you are! You’ve killed men of my Han Family, and today, no one can save you!”

”Shut up.” Lin Mu cast a cold glance at the Patriarch. ”The only reason you’re still alive is so you can watch me destroy the Han Family with your own eyes. So stay put and behave.”

He told the Patriarch of the Han Family to stay put? The expressions on the faces of the crowd shifted. This fellow’s arrogance was on another level.

”Good! Very good!” The Patriarch laughed, his voice dripping with fury and scorn. ”I’d like to see how you plan to annihilate my Han Family. But let me give you a harsh warning: not only will you die today, but your family and friends will follow. The Han Family won’t spare a single one of them!”

That was an outright threat.

”That depends on whether the Han Family survives today,” Lin Mu said with a grin. ”And I don’t think you will.”

”Lin Mu, that’s enough!” A woman stepped forward at the critical moment, her gaze cold as she stared at him.

Han Xiu had intended to make a move, but he stopped when he saw it was Shangguan Shiming.

”Lin Mu, I don’t know what grudge you have with Han Xiu, but today is his day of great celebration. I hope you don’t do anything you’ll regret.”

Shangguan Shiming had met Lin Mu before; in fact, part of her reason for visiting Demon City was to find him. She never imagined, however, that he would show up at the Han Family estate, kill so many people, and then threaten to annihilate the entire clan. It was simply beyond arrogant.

”A day of great celebration?” Lin Mu laughed. ”This Han Xiu covets my woman, and you expect me to pretend nothing happened and just walk away?”

Lin Mu shook his head. ”If you intend to stand up for the Han Family, I’ll kill you first, then I’ll kill Han Xiu.”

”What?” Shangguan Shiming was stunned. The woman Han Xiu was marrying today was this man’s wife? The expressions of everyone in the crowd shifted. They hadn’t known about this. So Han Xiu had actually coveted another man’s woman. No wonder someone had come seeking revenge.

The moment the crowd glanced at Qin Luoli, they understood. A woman of such ethereal beauty, as if sculpted from the essence of heaven and earth, would indeed be difficult for any man to resist.

Shangguan Shiming’s expression also changed. She turned to Han Xiu, her face like steel. ”Han Xiu, is what he said true?”

Han Xiu remained silent.

Is that a tacit admission? A sense of foreboding welled up in Shangguan Shiming’s heart.

”Lin Mu, there must be a misunderstanding,” Shangguan Shiming explained hastily. ”Han Xiu is my Junior Brother; he would never do such a thing.”

Even though she found Han Xiu’s actions despicable, he was still her Junior Brother, and she felt compelled to defend him.

”Are you saying I’m wronging him?” Lin Mu’s eyes, brimming with killing intent, fixed on Shangguan Shiming.

”I...” Stared down by Lin Mu, Shangguan Shiming shuddered involuntarily. His gaze was terrifying.

”Get out of my way.” Lin Mu had no desire to waste any more words with her. ”If you utter one more word of nonsense, I’ll kill you too.”

”How audacious!” the Patriarch of the Han Family suddenly erupted in fury. ”Boy, do you know who you’re speaking to? This is...”

”You shut your mouth!” Shangguan Shiming suddenly roared. ”I will investigate this thoroughly. If Han Xiu has truly done something unforgivable, I will personally take him back to the Sect to face punishment!”

The Patriarch of the Han Family’s expression changed, and he dared not say another word. He knew that even Han Xiu had to show respect to Shangguan Shiming, let alone him.

”That won’t be necessary,” Lin Mu stated emotionlessly. ”There is only one possible outcome for this: the annihilation of the Han Family.”

The moment his voice fell, Lin Mu’s aura exploded outward, causing the very sky to churn.

”This is...” Many faces changed drastically as people cried out in shock, ”A Martial Arts Grandmaster!”

The person who came to cause trouble at the Han Family was actually a Martial Arts Grandmaster!

Seeing Lin Mu about to attack, Shangguan Shiming grew frantic. ”Lin Mu, don’t be impulsive! I promise I will give you a satisfactory explanation for this! If you kill Han Xiu, my Sect will not let you go!”

She was all too aware of Lin Mu’s true strength. He was far more than a mere Martial Arts Grandmaster. Even she felt her heart pound with fear under the pressure of his aura; how could Han Xiu possibly be his opponent?

”Hmph.” Lin Mu gave Shangguan Shiming a cold glance. ”Scram.”

At that single word, Shangguan Shiming staggered back several steps, her face turning pale.

This time, Han Xiu’s expression finally changed.

This man... his strength is terrifying!

”Han Xiu, come out and face your death!” As his voice fell, Lin Mu stepped forward.

”Since you’re so intent on dying, I will grant your wish,” Han Xiu finally said, a faint smile on his lips. ”After I kill you, I will be sure to take very good care of your woman for you.”

”Han Xiu!” Shangguan Shiming’s face fell upon hearing his words.

So he really did covet another man’s wife?

”Senior Sister, don’t worry. I’ll handle this,” Han Xiu said with a strange smile, a flash of greed in his eyes as he glanced at her.

My dear Senior Sister, don’t be impatient. You’re next.

With that thought, Han Xiu slowly walked toward Lin Mu, his aura gradually intensifying.

”Everyone, get back!” Shangguan Shiming yelled, ordering the crowd to retreat.

Who knew how many would be killed in a battle between two such powerful experts?

Without needing a reminder, the crowd had already scrambled to a safe distance, though a few fearless individuals watched from afar.

”Who is this person? There’s no such figure in the Martial Arts World, is there?” someone murmured, staring at Lin Mu with a deep frown.

Suddenly, someone screamed in horror, ”He’s Lin Wudi?!”

”Lin Wudi? The legend of the Martial Arts World?!”

The name dropped like a boulder into a placid lake, instantly creating monstrous waves. The expressions of the Han Family members also changed drastically. Lin Wudi. In recent years, that was the most talked-about name in the entire Martial Arts World.

”Hmph! So what if he’s Lin Wudi?” the Patriarch of the Han Family said coldly. ”When the King of Men makes his move, who can stand against him? Even Lin Wudi will die!” The Han Family had absolute confidence in Han Xiu.

The next moment, Han Xiu moved. His speed was so immense that no one could clearly see his actions.

THUD!

After a dull impact, a figure was sent flying backward.

It was Han Xiu! His expression had changed slightly, and from his clenched fist, a single drop of blood fell.

”Han Xiu is injured!”

”How is this possible!”

When the crowd looked back at Lin Mu, they saw him slowly retracting a single finger. It was clear: the wound on Han Xiu’s hand had been caused by that one finger alone.

HISS! The Patriarch of the Han Family drew a sharp breath.

The King of Men... injured? How is that possible?

Lin Mu looked at Han Xiu with indifference. ”King Han Xiu? Is that all you have? If this is the extent of your skill, your Han Family’s destruction is guaranteed today.”
