Chapter 1390: Chapter 1385: Hesitation (Part 2)

However, Shangguan Nishang’s shout immediately caught the attention of the foreigners.

They immediately noticed that Shangguan Nishang was just an ordinary person, without any real strength.

Furthermore, the relationship between the two must be extraordinary.

Suddenly, a plan formed in their minds.

In an instant, six of them charged at Lin Xi.

One remained motionless.

A second later, he leapt towards Shangguan Nishang.

He moved at the fastest speed he had ever achieved in his life.

He also believed that Lin Xi wouldn’t react in time.

Once the woman was in his grasp, wouldn’t Lin Xi have no choice but to surrender?

By that time, they could not only kill Lin Xi but also rescue their Innate member lying on the ground.

As for the members of the ten great families, they no longer had much hope of taking down these people.

But being able to kill someone like Lin Xi,

they felt it was worth coming to Huaxia this time.

Perhaps even more significant than killing members of the ten great families, in terms of weakening Huaxia’s strength.

They felt that even if Lin Xi was disguised or had maintained his youth,

his real age likely wouldn’t be too young.

Probably under sixty years old.

An Innate mid-level under sixty?

Definitely one of the most extraordinary figures in the world.

The most terrifying part is that this person might break through to top-level Innate in the future.

At that level, Huaxia would have another person like the Dragon King.

Actually, besides the Dragon King, no one knows what level he truly is at.

But most people speculate he is top-level Innate.

So having another one would make Huaxia truly formidable.

"Humph!" When Lin Xi’s eyes darted around, he instantly understood their intentions.

As soon as the six moved, Lin Xi flicked a stone with his foot.

The stone flew to the right.

Right in the path of the King of Soldiers targeting Shangguan Nishang.

"Bang!"

The stone struck the King of Soldiers’ head.

His pupils instantly widened, seemingly not understanding what the heck just happened.

But he had no chance to think about it.

"Boom!"

He fell to the ground, dead beyond recovery.

From what could be seen, his temple was deeply indented.

If someone were to open his skull, they’d find that its interior was a mess of bloody pulp.

The other six didn’t notice that their companion was already dead.

They were fiercely attacking Lin Xi, seemingly with all their strength.

In fact, they weren’t using their full strength.

They were merely trying to distract Lin Xi.

To give their partner the chance to capture the woman.

But they were mistaken.

Their plan was now impossible.

In a few minutes, five of them fell to the ground in disbelief.

They waited for their companion to call for a halt, but they never heard it.

As they fell, they saw that their companion had been lying on the ground for who knows how long, dead or alive.

Their last thought was, could there be someone else?

Or perhaps the woman wasn’t an ordinary person, but a strong warrior?

But they had no chance to find out, as they had already fainted.

Seeing the weakening Lin Xi about to collapse, Shangguan Nishang hurriedly rushed over to support him.

And asked, "Are you alright?"

Lin Xi glanced at his injuries, although they looked terrible, they were actually minor. He was just exhausted, having nearly depleted his True Qi.

And so he shook his head, indicating he was fine.

Then said, "Let’s go back!"

"What about them?" Shangguan Nishang hesitated, asking.

Lin Xi knew exactly what she meant.

"Let those people be!" he replied.

Because among these foreigners, those who were dead were dead, those who were unconscious would not wake up for at least half an hour.

Moreover, even if they awoke, they wouldn’t be able to move.

Besides, given the magnitude of the situation, the relevant departments would surely be on their way.

It’s known that the Dragon King’s intelligence officer, Gu Long, should be in Chuzhou City.

Even if he’s not very powerful, he must have experts with him.

Since on a previous trip to Xinjiang, he heard about Gu Long leading a thorough cleanup.

This was after Lin Xi killed Butcher Zhao and his group.

Presumably, Gu Long and his team undertook the cleanup because of that incident.

A cleanup requires Innate experts, and possibly even stronger figures.

Otherwise, Lin Xi understands that without absolute power, it would’ve been hard to manage the complex situation there.

Moreover, counterattacks are always a possibility.

As for the people from the ten great families, let them be.

His recent actions weren’t solely for their sake.

Although they displayed gratitude on their faces, there’s no hiding their thoughts from Lin Xi.

But he chose not to voice it.

After all, the wool-gathering must continue.

He was curious about the depths of these ancient families and wanted them not to disappoint him!

What was amusing was what Lin Xi discovered.

The two conscious Innate members from the ten great families had furtive glances.

He understood what it meant.

They were pondering whether to act or not!

Namely, considering having their Innate subordinates attack Lin Xi.

They were secretly weighing their options!

Whether to do it or not?

If Lin Xi was really as weak as he seemed, maybe there was a chance.

If not?

Staring at Lin Xi’s recent tactics, all would perish here.

Moreover, their families would face severe repercussions!

In the end, they decided against it.

Given that Lin Xi seemed like this after dealing with five major Innates,

then faced seven robust Kings of Soldiers, who were all defeated by Lin Xi, without a sound.

Regarding the thoughts of those from the ten great families, and those watching, Lin Xi no longer cared.

He felt quite comfortable at the moment.

Yes, practically being carried by Shangguan Nishang.

Making more contact with her.

Besides, Shangguan Nishang always dressed provocatively in a tempting manner.

Thus, her attire was indeed very revealing, with certain areas even uncovered.

Lin Xi was no gentleman.

Moreover, this woman was now his wife.

So what’s wrong with taking advantage?

He even took the chance to hug Shangguan Nishang’s waist.

Resting his head on her shoulder.

He deliberately intensified his breathing.

Exhaling warm air onto Shangguan Nishang’s neck and ears.

Soon, he could feel the temperature of Shangguan Nishang’s body rising.

Her ears, neck, and cheeks began to blush.

This made Lin Xi harder to control himself.

Originally, Shangguan Nishang had an inherent allure just standing there without much expression.

Now, she was even more captivating and tempting.

"Behave yourself!" Shangguan Nishang deeply inhaled, huffed with annoyance.

She was genuinely impressed, even under such circumstances, he could have such thoughts!
