It was hard to be scared of a four-or-five-year-old child with such an innocent, adorable smile.

So, this group of blood-soaked gangsters erupted into laughter; some even laughed until tears streamed down their faces.

"I'm dying! What did this kid say? He wants Boss Dai to die a painful death?"

"Hahaha, has this kid watched too much TV?"

"Go suckle at your mother's teat, you little brat!"

"..."

Despite their laughter, they showed no mercy when they struck. The steel pipe in one thug's hand swung directly at Liu Xiaolin's head. If this blow landed, it would definitely smash his brains out.

However, just as the steel pipe was about to hit him, Liu Xiaolin casually lifted his hand and extended a single, chubby, tender finger toward it. It looked incredibly cute.

The attackers were all stunned for a moment.

Has this kid lost his mind? Does he plan to stop a steel pipe with his finger? He's nuts! This kid is definitely sick in the head! And that man and woman are even worse. Why else would they just stand there and watch this kid march to his death? There isn't a single trace of worry or fear on their faces. It's as if... as if this kid could really handle us! Ridiculous!

The gangster snorted, his smile twisting into a ferocious, terrifying sneer that bordered on madness.

"Go to hell, kid!" he snarled, bringing the steel pipe down fiercely.

"TSSST!"

Just then, something shot out from Liu Xiaolin's cute little fingertip. It pierced straight through the steel pipe and entered the man's head, right between his eyebrows.

"Ugh..."

The gangster felt a dull ache in his head as his consciousness plunged into darkness.

"THUD!"

He collapsed to the ground with a heavy sound, startling all his companions.

"What happened?"

The gangsters were shocked, staring at their fallen comrade with confusion and bewilderment. It was as if he died without ever knowing what had hit him.

"Look at the spot between his eyebrows!" someone shouted.

They saw brain matter and blood oozing from the spot and couldn't help but cry out in shock. Not only that, but another gangster noticed a pinhole-sized opening in the steel pipe his companion had been holding. It looked like something had pierced it clean through!

All eyes instinctively turned back to Liu Xiaolin, who still held up his little finger, watching them calmly.

"HISS!"

Everyone gasped in unison and stumbled back a few steps. The mockery and scorn in their eyes were replaced by pure terror.

This four-or-five-year-old child can actually kill a man with one finger! That's terrifying!

"A bunch of wastes!" Seeing his men retreat, Dai Yongqing became furious and kicked one of them to the ground. He pointed at Lin Mu and yelled, "It's that guy's doing! He must be using some kind of hidden weapon! Don't let him scare you!"

"That's right!" the gangsters exclaimed, coming to a realization. "I knew it! This isn't a movie. How could a little brat be so powerful? The guy behind him must be using a concealed weapon!"

"I almost pissed my pants just now!"

"You already did, didn't you!"

A vein throbbed on Dai Yongqing's temple as he heard his underlings joking around.

"What are you standing around for? Chop this little beast into pieces!" Dai Yongqing roared, his expression savage. "He dared to cripple my son's hand, so I'll chop his son to bits and feed him to the dogs!"

"Get him! Get him!"

Several thugs screamed as they rushed toward Liu Xiaolin.

Liu Xiaolin glanced back at Lin Mu, who gave a slight nod. Liu Xiaolin immediately understood.

Su Ke'er couldn't bear to watch and squeezed her eyes shut, anticipating the cruel scene that was about to unfold.

"VMMMM!"

A sharp and powerful wave of Sword Qi suddenly swept out from Liu Xiaolin, spreading in all directions.

"PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!"

"AHH! AHH! AHH!"

The Sword Qi shot forward, piercing through the foreheads of the thugs one by one with incredible precision.

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

The thugs had barely charged forward before half of them were killed. The survivors, their faces etched with terror, scrambled to fall back. However, as fast as they were, Liu Xiaolin's Sword Qi was faster.

As swift as a Thunderbolt!

"PFFT! PFFT! PFFT!"

A few more thugs were pierced through the head, collapsing to the ground, deader than dead.

"This..."

As the last thug died before him, the color drained from Dai Yongqing's face. Shock, terror, and disbelief warred with one another, making his expression a fascinating sight. Gripping a machete, his legs trembled slightly, and he swallowed hard. The way he looked at Liu Xiaolin was as if he were seeing a Devil.

"You just said you wanted to chop me up and feed me to the dogs?" Liu Xiaolin suddenly flashed a supremely innocent smile, tilting his head. "Actually, I'd quite like to see what it feels like to chop someone up and feed them to the dogs."

"THUMP!"

Hearing this, Dai Yongqing collapsed to his knees, his face deathly pale.

"No, don't..." he pleaded, shaking his head frantically, his heart drowning in fear and regret.

This child, only four or five years old, is capable of such cruel thoughts. Dai Yongqing had no doubt the boy would actually do it—chop him up and feed him to the dogs.

"You say 'don't' as if that will stop me. Who do you think you are?" Liu Xiaolin suddenly grew angry, pouting as he said, "I'll give you two choices. Either I chop you up and feed you to the dogs, or you chop yourself up, and I'll help you with the feeding part!"

Dai Yongqing's jaw dropped. What the hell is the difference? Either way, I'm getting chopped up and fed to the dogs!

"Well? You don't agree?" Liu Xiaolin slowly walked up to Dai Yongqing, an innocent smile on his adorable little face. "Then I'll give you one more choice. Hand over my father, and I might not kill you."

"Really?" Dai Yongqing's eyes lit up, but then his expression twisted in anguish. "But I don't have him."

"Hm? Are you saying I have to go find someone else?" Liu Xiaolin extended his finger, a wisp of Sword Qi coiling around its tip. The Limitless Sword Body allowed him to be born with control over all Sword Qi in the world.

"No, no, no!" Dai Yongqing shook his head wildly. "I'll call Sister Hua right now and have her release him!"

Liu Xiaolin asked, "And who is Sister Hua?"

"Sister Hua? You don't mean Hua Meiniang, one of the Five Phoenixes of Jiangbei, do you?" Su Ke'er's expression changed slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes.

"That's her," Dai Yongqing confirmed, seeming to breathe a sigh of relief. "So, if I get him released, you can't kill me. Otherwise, you won't leave Wufeng Town alive!"

Hua Meiniang was one of the Five Phoenixes of Jiangbei, a woman of tremendous power. More importantly, she was rumored to have intricate connections with the Jiangling Fang Family.

"No need for all that trouble." Lin Mu suddenly stood up. "Since we know where he is, let's just go over and ask for him."

"You're going to ask Sister Hua for him?" Dai Yongqing's eyes widened in disbelief.

"What? Got a problem with that?" Liu Xiaolin huffed.

"No... I wouldn't dare," Dai Yongqing quickly stammered, lowering his head.

Inwardly, however, he scoffed. Asking Sister Hua for someone? They're courting death!
