"Can you help me kill him?"
The woman's clear voice made Lin Ge falter. He even stopped gathering his sword intent and turned to look at the woman beside him, her face hidden behind a red veil. His brows knitted slightly.
"Did you just ask me to kill Lei Bao?" Lin Ge wondered if he'd heard wrong and asked aloud.
The woman didn't speak. Instead, she nodded firmly.
Her answer came so quickly that Lin Ge didn't know how to respond.
"Boom!"
An explosion rang out. Lei Bao and the two elders leaped from the ruins and landed heavily, smashing a sizable crater into the ground.
"Get away from that woman!"
Seeing Lin Ge beside his woman, Lei Bao couldn't help roaring.
Lin Ge sneered and pulled the woman into his arms. A soft warmth met him at once, along with a captivating fragrance that left him entranced.
The instant Lin Ge embraced her, the woman's body stiffened. Sweat appeared on the delicate hand exposed beneath her veil.
In truth, she wasn't the only one feeling nervous. Lin Ge was, too.
Though he was a transmigrator and had lived far longer than he looked, this was his first time embracing a woman. His body gradually stiffened, but the softness in his arms stirred him, and he couldn't bear to let go.
"You little brat, you're asking to die!"
Lei Bao knew the boy was only doing this to provoke him. He should have known better than to fall for it, but he did all the same. Fury flooded him and clouded his mind. He immediately unleashed Thunderbolt Flash, sending it hurtling toward Lin Ge.
Danger struck without warning. Lin Ge snapped out of his reverie and swung his sword. A swift, razor-sharp flash of swordlight appeared and knocked Lei Bao back.
"That was close."
Coming to his senses, Lin Ge felt embarrassed to keep holding the woman. He quickly withdrew his arm and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Kill him."
As Lin Ge pulled his arm back, the woman relaxed—but there was also a trace of reluctance in her.
"Lei Bao, looks like your woman really hates you."
Hearing the coldness in the woman's voice, Lin Ge watched Lei Bao with a mocking gaze and spoke leisurely.
"Hmph. Once I've dealt with this brat, I'll deal with you."
The woman's words darkened Lei Bao's expression completely. He shot her a cold look, then focused all his attention on Lin Ge.
No matter what, killing the brat in front of him was the most urgent matter. Everything else could wait.
Lin Ge kept sneering. Even now, Lei Bao still didn't understand the situation. He actually thought that the three of them, all at the Heaven Origin Realm, could kill him. What an idiot.
"Looks like it's time to end this fight."
With that thought, Lin Ge's figure abruptly vanished!
Lei Bao's expression shifted. He had just opened his mouth when a streak of swordlight shot toward him.
There was no time to say more. He immediately used all his strength and unleashed Thunderbolt Flash, blocking the swordlight.
But the instant he stopped the swordlight, Lin Ge appeared beside him and kicked him off his feet.
After knocking Lei Bao down, Lin Ge didn't stop. He sent a streak of swordlight toward each of the other two. They were so fast that there was no chance to dodge.
Pfft!
The two were badly wounded by the swordlight and fell to their knees, their faces instantly turning pale.
"Thunderbolt Flash!"
Seeing the two elders injured, Lei Bao fired a bolt of Thunderbolt Flash at Lin Ge.
"Same move again. It's completely pointless."
This time, Lin Ge didn't use the iron sword in his hand. He simply threw a punch with his other hand.
"Rumble!"
The two forces collided, and Lei Bao was sent flying again.
"Your Thunderbolt Flash can't do a thing to me. Don't you understand?"
Lin Ge lowered his fist and spoke impassively.
"Impossible! Thunderbolt Flash is a fourth-grade superior martial art. How can you block it so easily?"
The Lei Clan's pride had been effortlessly stopped again and again. Shock appeared in Lei Bao's eyes, and his body began to tremble.
"Nothing is impossible. It's only because you're too weak."
Lin Ge had lost patience with Lei Bao. He thrust his sword into the air, and a streak of swordlight shot out like an arrow, flying straight toward Lei Bao's vital point.
"Youngster, how dare you!"
At that moment, a flame streaked over from afar and forcibly stopped the swordlight in front of Lei Bao.
Lin Ge turned and saw three old men in purple brocade robes rapidly approaching.
"Are those the three Heaven Origin Realm experts from the Xie Clan?"
The sudden arrival of the three drew everyone's attention, though their reactions differed.
For the Lei Clan, their arrival undoubtedly improved its odds. The remaining Lei Clan disciples were delighted and excited, convinced that victory was now assured.
But the people from the Mad Blade Martial Hall and the Lin Clan weren't nearly so pleased.
With three more Heaven Origin Realm experts joining the fight, the pressure on the Lin Clan and the Mad Blade Martial Hall surged.
"Elder Xie Lan, please join the Lei Clan elders and kill that brat!"
Seeing the three, Xie Qian was overjoyed. He hurriedly pointed at Lin Ge and shouted.
Elder Xie Lan's brows furrowed as he looked at Lin Ge. His expression gradually turned grave.
The young man before him looked rather immature, but his entire body radiated a sharp, cutting aura. He clearly wasn't ordinary.
"Haha... Brat, let's see how you resist now!"
With three more Heaven Origin Realm experts on their side, Lei Bao forced down his pain and burst out laughing.
Even now, Lei Bao still hadn't realized that he wasn't facing a half-step Origin Pellet Realm expert, but a genuine Origin Pellet Realm expert.
"Six peak Heaven Origin Realm experts? Now this is getting a little interesting."
Lin Ge pointed his sword at Lei Bao. A powerful aura erupted from him and gradually spread across the entire Lei Clan Courtyard.
"This... this aura..."
"No mistake. This is the aura of an Origin Pellet Realm expert. He's actually at the Origin Pellet Realm!"
Everyone stared at Lin Ge, their faces filled with shock.
"This game is over."
As the words fell, a green gleam shone from the iron sword in Lin Ge's hand. Sharp sword intent filled the space around it, resonating with the blade and producing a ringing sword cry.
The sudden sword cry changed the expressions of Lei Bao and the other Heaven Origin Realm experts. Their inner energy surged.
At the sight of this, everyone else lost any desire to keep fighting. They hastily fled the Lei Clan Courtyard, putting as much distance between themselves and the battle as they could.
"Nine Heaven Origin Realm experts? Perfect!"
Watching all the Heaven Origin Realm experts from the Lei and Xie Families strike at once, Lin Ge smiled. His smile was confident and arrogant.
"Kill!"
A cold glint flashed. The nine peak Heaven Origin Realm experts each unleashed their strongest martial arts and attacked Lin Ge together.
