Chapter 68: Hostility (1/2)

Elder Xu looked at Lin Xiao with arched eyebrows. There was faint coldness within his eyes that started to emerge. As someone with high status in the village, he was also someone with pride. No one dared to say no to him in the past.

And now Lin Xiao dared to?

”Do you know what you're saying to me, Lin Xiao?”

The tone was still amiable as if Elder Xu was not angry yet he was only advising. However, Lin Xiao knew how shrewd the elders in the village was. Even though they were showing smile and also spoke in kindhearted tone, the truth was that they were harboring deep grudge.

They would be unwilling to be treated impolitely by Lin Xiao.

However, Lin Xiao also had no intention of selling himself. Hell, he was sure that Elder Xu would also impose him to be loyal to Xu Qin like a dog.

He hated that thought.

”I'm a free man, Elder Xu. Besides, there's no way I'll like someone who hated me so much,” Lin Xiao replied openly, not afraid of offending Elder Xu.

By this time, he felt that there was no need for him to hold back anymore. He had already offended Elder Su. Offending another elder wouldn't make that much difference to him.

'I'll leave.'

At this time, Lin Xiao had already decided within his heart that he would leave as fast as possible when it was the time. There was no need for him to stay in this rotten village anymore.

”Good, good, good, do you really think that I'll take no as an answer?” Elder Xu's Qi began to swell around his body.

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed. He could sense that Elder Xu was even stronger than Su Hei. It was not that weird, though, considering the difference in age and experience. While Elder Xu would not advance much anymore in the future, he was also someone who used to fight a lot in his youth.

”Are you sure you want to do this, Elder Xu?” Lin Xiao sneered.

”Oh, you're not afraid?”

Swish! Bang!

Initiating Moon Evasion, Lin Xiao evaded the attack. His eyes were cold, but he knew that he was not a match against Elder Xu. Thankfully, he had sneakily learned Moon Evasion from watching the performance of those disciples before.

With his skill, he rushed over to the location of the cliff.

”You won't be able to run!”

Lin Xiao snorted and grabbed a handful of sand before throwing it in the direction of Elder Xu.

”Guh!”

With the speed Elder Xu was going, he failed to escape from the scattering sand in time. With his vision slightly blocked, he quickly initiated his Qi and dispersed the sand from him. But the slight delay allowed Lin Xiao to create a distance from the two of them.

Lin Xiao no longer looked to the back and upon reaching the hanging roots, he quickly picked one. He was very clear which hanging root was safe and which one was not. With that he swung to the other side.
