Li Family Head? Kill Him!

"Hey, hey, hey, Brother Lin's expression... he doesn't seem panicked at all?"

Zhao Tie whispered to Li Rui behind him.

"Nonsense! Have you ever seen Brother Lin panic? The Moon Worship Cult, the Golden Corpse King, the Old Demon of Black Wind. Although this Li Bantian is at the third level of the Dan Yuan Realm, but..."

Li Rui said with disdain.

Zhao Tie nodded in agreement, "That makes sense. I almost forgot, Brother Lin can't be judged by common sense."

Lin Feng was indeed not panicking; he even felt like laughing a little.

This game of chess was indeed exquisitely played, with one move leading to the next, almost seamlessly.

But the person who set up this game had miscalculated one thing.

They had calculated against the cunning Skin-Peeling Demon.

They had calculated against the Li Family.

They had calculated against the Demon Suppression Division.

But they had failed to account for the "knife" they used for killing by proxy—a cheater who played completely outside the rules.

"Lin Feng! You murderer! Kneel and accept your death!"

Seeing Lin Feng remain silent, Li Bantian assumed he had nothing more to say. He roared, his aura as a third-level Dan Yuan Realm expert surging once more, and he was about to strike with a palm.

"Stop!"

Just then, a gentle yet authoritative voice rang out.

The Silver Token Manager walked out slowly.

He was still dressed in plain hemp clothes, looking like an ordinary old man from next door.

But in his cloudy old eyes, a sharp glint flickered, one that dared not be looked at directly.

"The Demon Suppression Division is not your Li Family's backyard to do as you please. Do you think I'm dead?"

Upon seeing the Manager, Li Bantian's pupils contracted slightly, and his arrogance diminished by a third.

Though arrogant, he knew the terror of the old man before him.

The Manager of the Nan Yan Commandery Demon Suppression Division possessed unfathomable strength.

"Manager Sir."

Li Bantian suppressed his rage and said in a deep voice, "It's not that I, Li, intend to offend, but this brat killed my beloved son. He has gone too far! If I do not seek justice for my son today, how can my Li Family maintain its dignity?"

"Justice?"

The Manager chuckled. "Your so-called justice is to come to my Demon Suppression Division to demand an explanation based on a broken piece of jade you found who knows where, and an aura of a cultivation technique that you yourself cannot explain?"

He paused, his gaze suddenly turning cold.

"Li Bantian, do you think my Demon Suppression Division is a soft persimmon that you can just squeeze at will?"

"I..."

Li Bantian was momentarily speechless.

The Manager pressed on, "If your son was possessed by a Skin-Peeling Demon, then he is no longer your son, but a demon wreaking havoc on the world! It is only right and proper for my Demon Suppression Division to slay demons! If you are not satisfied, you are welcome to go to the Prefecture Demon Suppression Division to appeal!"

These words were flawless and full of dominance.

If your son was possessed by a demon, then he was a demon, and killing him was justified!

What proof do you have that it wasn't a demon?

None?

If none, then get lost!

Li Bantian trembled with rage, his face turning ashen.

He knew the Manager was openly protecting someone!

But he couldn't find any reason to refute him.

The duty of the Demon Suppression Division was to slay demons.

He couldn't possibly say, "Even if my son became a demon, you still couldn't kill him, right?"

That would put his Li Family squarely on the side of the demons.

"Very well, very well!"

Li Bantian laughed in anger, glaring fiercely at Lin Feng. "You just wait!"

Anyone with eyes could see that since he couldn't win openly, he would resort to underhanded tactics.

The Manager's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this, about to issue a warning.

"There's no need for that."

Lin Feng stepped forward instead, looking calmly at Li Bantian.

"You want justice? I'll give you a chance!"

Silence fell over the entire venue.

Everyone stared at Lin Feng as if he were a madman.

That's a powerhouse at the third level of the Dan Yuan Realm!

And you, a mere cultivator in the True Qi Realm, dare to say you'll give him a chance?

This boast is bigger than the sky!

Li Bantian was so enraged his eyes bulged, feeling utterly humiliated.

"Arrogant brat! You're seeking death!"

He stopped wasting words. The terrifying power of the Dan Yuan Realm erupted, and he unleashed a palm strike. The air seemed to roar like crashing waves as a massive palm print, formed from pure spiritual energy, pressed down on Lin Feng's head!

This single palm strike was enough to pulverize a small mountain!

However, facing this earth-shattering attack, a look of disdain appeared on Lin Feng's face.

Treading Snow Without Trace!

Lin Feng's figure instantly vanished from his original position, as if he had merged with the air, leaving no trace.

The colossal palm print slammed into the ground, smashing the hard bluestone slabs into a pit several meters deep, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Where did he go?!"

Li Bantian froze. His Dan Yuan Realm senses couldn't detect Lin Feng's trace at all!

"Die!"

Lin Feng's figure reappeared behind Li Bantian like a phantom.

His voice was as casual as asking if someone had eaten, but the chilling killing intent within it made Li Bantian, a powerhouse at the third level of the Dan Yuan Realm, feel his hair stand on end!

"You little b..."

However, he only managed to utter two words before a clear, sharp blade cry forcibly cut off the third.

A blade light, impossibly fast and chillingly cold, appeared before him!

Entwined around the blade light were wisps of blood-red lightning. It was Lin Feng's newly acquired divine weapon—the Killing Blade!

"Abyssal Path Three Slashes, First Form, Slay the Mortal!"

[115x Critical Hit Triggered!]

The blood-red blade light clashed violently with the blue tidal wave!

The entire front courtyard of the Demon Suppression Division seemed to have a bomb dropped into it. A terrifying shockwave of energy spread out in a ring, peeling up a layer of the hard bluestone ground!

The Demon Slayer Envoys, weaker in strength, were sent stumbling and falling by the blast wave.

Amidst the swirling dust, Li Bantian staggered back seven or eight steps, each one leaving a deep footprint in the ground before he barely managed to stabilize himself.

His protective "Tidal True Qi" had been nearly shattered by the blade strike. The arm holding the brocade box trembled slightly, and a trickle of blood seeped from his tiger's mouth.

The look he gave Lin Feng was no longer one of contempt, but of boundless shock and disbelief!

"This... this is impossible!"

A junior in the True Qi Realm could force him, a powerhouse at the third level of the Dan Yuan Realm, to retreat with a single strike?

If this news spread, the entire Nan Yan Commandery would explode!

Lin Feng's eyes remained calm, but his heart was overjoyed.

Even though he knew he was being used as a pawn by some mastermind, why would he refuse the critical points delivered right to his doorstep?

He gave Li Bantian no chance to breathe. With Treading Snow Without Trace beneath his feet, his figure vanished instantly. The next moment, he appeared like a phantom to Li Bantian's left!

"Second Slash, Slaughter God!"

Another blade light, even more condensed and domineering, erupted in a ferociously tricky angle, slashing horizontally!

This strike seemed capable of slaughtering gods and buddhas, and the destructive intent within it made Li Bantian's soul tremble!

"Raging Tide!"

Li Bantian no longer dared to hold back. The Dan Yuan within his Dantian spun wildly, and his formidable spiritual energy erupted without reservation.

He brought both palms together, forming a thick, several-foot-wide wall of densely packed spiritual energy—a blue water wall—before him!

This was his ultimate defensive technique, and he was confident that even a master at the fifth or sixth level of the Dan Yuan Realm couldn't break it easily!

However, before Lin Feng's terrifying blade light, amplified by the 115x critical hit, this water wall was as fragile as a poorly built structure.

"Crack--!"

With a crisp sound, the water wall shattered.

The blood-red blade light continued its unstoppable momentum, fiercely cleaving into Li Bantian's left shoulder!

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted wildly!

Li Bantian let out a pained grunt. His entire left arm was severed at the shoulder by this single strike, falling to the ground!

"Ahhh! My arm!"
