A fight to the death? You think you deserve it? (Seventh update!!)

Seeing these people, Lin Tianci immediately understood.

The Savage Blade Martial Hall was quite easy to identify. Its disciples all wore uniform training robes, emblazoned on the chest with the Martial Hall's distinctive insignia.

Lin Tianci's gaze turned amused. He had not expected the Savage Blade Martial Hall to arrive at this moment as well.

A tiny Marketplace had actually gathered Qingyang Town's Four Great Powers!

Though they were all juniors, they still formed a force not to be underestimated.

More than a dozen people from the Savage Blade Martial Hall had arrived, each of them wearing an arrogant expression and brimming with a steady, well-rounded aura.

At the forefront stood a somewhat lean young man. What left the deepest impression were his unusually broad palms, covered in blade scars—clearly the result of practicing with the blade all year round.

The aura around this young man was no weaker than that of Lei Li or Xie Yingying.

Lin Tianci had heard of him before. After all, he was Wu Yun, the strongest among the Savage Blade Martial Hall Juniors.

Lei Li and Xie Yingying exchanged a glance, and both their expressions changed, their faces turning ugly.

They had originally felt that Lin Tianci's strength was on par with theirs, and had intended to use their numerical advantage to forcibly suppress him.

Yet now that the Savage Blade Martial Hall had arrived—especially Wu Yun, whose strength was comparable to Xie Yingying's—their plan to overwhelm Lin Tianci with numbers naturally came to nothing.

"You must be Lin Tianci of the Lin Family, the one who has recently risen to fame." Wu Yun had originally worn a careless smile.

But when he clearly saw the miserable state of the Xie Family Juniors in the area, he inwardly cried out, What ruthless methods!

Only then did he look toward Lin Tianci, unable to stop a trace of admiration from flashing through his eyes.

Beating the Xie Family Juniors into such a state was no different from directly tearing all ties with the Xie Family.

"Lin Family, Lin Tianci." Lin Tianci cupped his hands toward Wu Yun.

The Lin Family had always been on good terms with the Savage Blade Martial Hall, so Lin Tianci naturally could not treat Wu Yun as he had treated the Lei and Xie Families.

"Wu Yun, this matter seems to have nothing to do with your Savage Blade Martial Hall. Let me advise you: don't meddle in other people's business."

Xie Yingying stared at Wu Yun, her eyes filled with threat. Her meaning was obvious.

"I, Wu Yun, am not from your Lei and Xie Families. Naturally, I can do whatever I want. It is not your place to tell me what to do." Wu Yun shrugged indifferently.

"Besides, Brother Tianci and I hit it off at first sight. Now that my brother is in trouble, it is only natural for me to lend a hand. What is so remarkable about that?"

At those words, Xie Yingying and Lei Li's expressions darkened further.

The Xie Family Juniors had suffered so miserably, and now that Wu Yun had stepped in, there was nothing they could do to Lin Tianci.

This situation angered Lei Li so badly that he nearly crushed his teeth.

"Lin Tianci, is it? Good. Very good." Xie Yingying drew a deep breath. "Qingyang Town's Hunting will begin before long. If you have the guts, take part!"

"Lin Tianci, at the Hunting, I will make you beg for death!" Lei Li snarled viciously.

Then, under countless astonished gazes, the juniors of the Lei and Xie Families actually retreated.

Their clean, decisive departure left everyone present stunned.

They had thought that with Lei Li and Xie Yingying arriving to take charge, Lin Tianci would suffer terribly. Yet the ones who chose to leave were the Lei and Xie Families?

Everyone looked toward Lin Tianci, who stood proudly in the middle of the area. The Lin Family's eldest grandson truly lived up to his reputation!

"No matter what, I still have to thank your Savage Blade Martial Hall for today." Lin Tianci turned to the people of the Savage Blade Martial Hall and smiled.

Though he did not think much of Lei Li and Xie Yingying.

Wu Yun had come to help out of friendship, not obligation. Lin Tianci understood that clearly.

"It was nothing." Wu Yun waved a hand casually. "I already disliked the behavior of the Lei and Xie Families. I am more than happy to make them uncomfortable."

Wu Yun was a straightforward sort, and Lin Tianci could not help but develop some goodwill toward him.

"Alright, it is getting late. We will be leaving first. See you at the Hunting!"

After chatting casually for a while, Wu Yun waved goodbye to Lin Tianci, then led the Savage Blade Martial Hall's people away in a grand procession.

"We should head back too." Lin Tianci glanced at the Lin Family Juniors behind him and said.

"Mm." The Lin Family Juniors were still excited. They all nodded and surged out together beneath the gazes of the surrounding crowd.

On the way back, Lin Xia clung to Lin Tianci's arm and refused to let go.

Beside Lin Tianci, she felt an overwhelming sense of safety.

"Ge, we really had you to thank today. Otherwise, the few of us probably would not have walked out of the Marketplace so easily." Lin Xia spoke with lingering fear in her voice.

There was still a hint of grievance in her tone.

"If you had trained properly on ordinary days, Xie Ting would have been the one getting beaten from the start." Lin Tianci patted Lin Xia's arm. "Train hard from now on and make sure you can beat her back yourself."

"Mm." Lin Xia nodded obediently.

"Today is not over yet." A dangerous glint flashed through Lin Tianci's eyes. "This is only the beginning. Sooner or later, ge will wipe out the Lei and Xie Families!"

He had now broken through to the Yuan Realm, and the amount of Power of Chaos he could absorb had increased considerably. Even if he cultivated step by step, it would not be long before he destroyed the Lei and Xie Families!

"Hey, ge, if I remember correctly, you came here with Qing Tan today, didn't you?" Lin Xia suddenly rolled her eyes, seemingly thinking of something, and looked at Lin Tianci with a mischievous smile.

"Ah, ahem." Lin Tianci had been planning how to destroy the Lei and Xie Families when Lin Xia unexpectedly changed the subject.

"Well, Younger Sister, ge bought you quite a few gifts while visiting the Marketplace today. I had planned to give them to you once we got home, but since we have met now, it makes no difference if I give them to you now."

Lin Tianci spoke somewhat stiffly.

Then, he took several gift boxes from Qing Tan's hands and handed them to Lin Xia.

"Even the gifts were entrusted to Qing Tan for safekeeping." Lin Xia grinned mischievously, her gaze constantly shifting between Lin Tianci and Qing Tan.

Qing Tan's face immediately reddened.

She lowered her head, not daring to meet Lin Xia's gaze, afraid Lin Xia would see something.

Little did she know, Qing Tan's guilty reaction only made Lin Xia even more certain of her suspicions.

Qing Tan's face was as red as an apple, exceptionally alluring. Even Lin Tianci felt like kissing her.

But there were too many people here, and considering the agreement he had made with Qing Tan earlier, he naturally could not kiss her directly in front of everyone.
