This restriction was condensed from Lin Bai's own Sword Qi. Once it entered the man's body, the moment he made any unusual move, Lin Bai only needed to gently activate the Sword Qi to kill him outright.
After sensing the restrictive Sword Qi within his body, the emaciated old man's face immediately turned ashen, and despair surfaced in his eyes.
After dealing with the emaciated old man, Lin Bai silently walked over to Yi Jinyun. "Miss Yi Jinyun, how did you end up in such a sorry state?"
"And what is the matter with these people?"
Now that the crisis had just ended, Lin Bai finally had time to ask Yi Jinyun what had happened.

Lin Bai nodded. Spiritual power swept up the emaciated old man, and he took Yi Jinyun into the sky.
