Lin Xiaotian said with a smile, "Then don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you attack me immediately, you'll still have a chance. But when I make my move, you'll only be able to lie on the ground like a log."
"This little brat is truly arrogant."
"Kill him!"
The men simultaneously aimed their weapons directly at Lin Xiaotian and pulled the triggers without hesitation.
A wicked smile played on Lin Xiaotian's lips.
He directly pulled Ye Lingfeng in front of him, and his body vanished from his original spot like a phantom.
"Bang bang..."
Loud noises continued to erupt, and Ye Lingfeng incredulously lowered his head.
His legs, which had just been reattached, were now completely mangled.
Lin Xiaotian had positioned him perfectly to absorb the bullets into his legs.
He hadn't just thrown a hidden weapon; the terrifying force of the attacks had shattered his bones, leaving no flesh attached.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, a piercing scream escaped his lips.
"Are you blind, you bastards? Why are you attacking me?"
"I want you to deal with Lin Xiaotian!"
His heart-wrenching roar was filled with hysterical wails.
The searing pain had turned his face ashen white, and blood dripped down incessantly.
At this moment.
Lin Xiaotian appeared behind him and flicked several silver needles, which pierced Ye Lingfeng's acupoints, stopping the bleeding from his legs.
"I'm being good to you, aren't I? I'm afraid you'll bleed to death, so I've given you a few needles to temporarily stop the bleeding."
"However, my help comes with a condition."
"Now that I've essentially saved your life, your life belongs to me, Little Demon."
"Therefore, whatever I do to you is only natural."
As his voice fell, several more silver needles were inserted.
Ye Lingfeng's entire body convulsed violently.
A soul-tearing pain coursed through him.
His eyes were filled with extreme terror, his mouth agape, wanting to speak but unable to utter a sound.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and pushed him aside, then turned his gaze to the other members of the Ye family.
They were already gaping, frozen in disbelief.
They hadn't seen how Lin Xiaotian had disappeared, and after they fired, Ye Lingfeng had suddenly appeared behind Lin Xiaotian.
This was why they had all missed their shots.
"Are... are you human or ghost?"
Someone finally trembled with fear and asked.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and said, "I'm so handsome and dashing, and you're calling me a ghost?"
"Now I'm a little angry. How should I deal with you?"
"Why don't I let you go down first to scout the path for Ye Lingfeng? After all, you're willing to be his lackeys, so you'll surely be willing to go ahead of him and fill up his queue on the road to the underworld."
"He'll be joining you soon."
Upon hearing this, fear flickered across their faces, and their weapons were aimed at Lin Xiaotian.
"Die, you bastard! Even if you're a ghost, we'll kill you!"
"Don't let him get close! He's too fast, kill him first!"
They all pulled their triggers, their eyes filled with madness.
At this moment, their nerves were stretched to the absolute limit. As they pulled the triggers, they realized Lin Xiaotian's voice hadn't disappeared, and there were only afterimages in front of him.
They all breathed a sigh of relief.
The person who had spoken earlier now wore a look of relief.
"This idiot didn't dodge this time. He's definitely dead today. With so many weapons pointed at him, if he doesn't die, then he's truly something else."
The surrounding people also gradually changed their expressions, some relieved, some freed from tension.
If Lin Xiaotian had suddenly disappeared again, they would have suspected they had encountered something supernatural tonight.
But at this moment, Lin Xiaotian's smiling voice echoed again.
"Are you blind, or are you selectively ignoring things?"
"If you had actually hit me, why isn't a single thread of my clothes torn?"
"You have no idea what true, absolute power looks like."
"I'm just opening your eyes today. In your next life, pay more attention. Not everyone can be provoked."
With that, he slowly opened his palm.
In his hand were dozens of golden bullets.
As they witnessed this, their pupils contracted violently, and their hearts churned like stormy seas.
They were utterly stunned.
Lin Xiaotian's lips curved into a cold arc, and then he flung the bullets outward.
"Bang bang..."
A sound like tearing leather echoed, and the men fell to the ground in disbelief, their pupils still wide with shock.
Their last thought was:
"How could this be?"
"Is Lin Xiaotian truly an immortal?"
Lin Xiaotian walked over with a smile and helped Elder Ye.
"Did I startle you, old man?"
"Do you think I'm some inexperienced youth who hasn't weathered any storms?" Elder Ye laughed heartily.
His gaze fell upon Ye Lingfeng, a glint of satisfaction in his eyes. "Xiaotian, thank goodness you came in time today. Otherwise, this scoundrel would have truly caused chaos."
"If the Ye family were to fall into his hands, it would be close to ruin."
"He's clearly being manipulated by someone, yet he's willingly acting like a dog."
"How could I have been so blind as to take in such an ungrateful wretch as my adopted son?"
Ye Lingfeng's eyes were now filled with extreme fear and pain.
He wanted to beg, but no sound could escape his lips.
If he were to die now, he would even thank Lin Xiaotian.
The pain was so intense that he wished for death to release him.
This was truly a fate worse than death.
Lin Xiaotian smiled and lifted him up, tossing him onto the wheelchair.
"I told you long ago that I wouldn't let you die so easily. You will have to pay for what you've done."
"We're all adults, so don't think about impossible things. I will not let you meet the King of Hell so painlessly. After you've paid the price for your mistakes, then you will die in pain."
Ye Lingfeng was utterly despairing, his mental state completely shattered.
Extreme regret spread through him.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaotian sneered, "You've been watching the show at the entrance for so long, there's no need to continue, is there?"
