ow to play. Back then, his father would let him have certain pieces like chariots, horses, and cannons. But now, his father was no match for him at all.Time flies, and unconsciously, countless autumns...With Wang Lin's lightning-fast and powerful kick to the groin, a sound of "poof" echoed like something had shattered.

In an instant, the man's previously normal expression contorted into a horrifying and monstrous visage.

He clutched his lower abdomen in agony, his body thrashing uncontrollably on the ground. A heart-wrenching, bone-chilling scream tore from his throat.

Thin threads of bright red blood flowed slowly down the crotch, a horrifying sight.

Wang Lin, seeing the situation, without hesitation, leaped forward like lightning, and with a punch, struck the opponent's cervical spine.

With a crisp "crack," the heart-wrenching screams vanished instantly.

Little Yue, standing aside with a face full of worry and anxiety, witnessed everything that happened. She immediately ran to Wang Lin's side and asked with concern: "Are you alright Are you hurt"

"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Wang Lin tightly held Xiaoyue's hand, then pulled her and ran quickly into the depths of the path.

Because the terrifying screams just now had already alerted some people around, if they didn't escape the scene immediately, they would probably be discovered and trapped soon, unable to get away.

Xiaoyue ran with all her might, while anxiously watching Wang Lin. She asked worriedly: “Do you know that man You just arrived in Jiangshan City recently, how could someone want to kill you”

Upon hearing this, Wang Lin's heart skipped a beat. He pondered inwardly, "Since arriving in Jiangshan City, I haven't really crossed paths with many people. And those few were all from the same family... Could it be that they're behind this"

Thinking of this, a slight upturn appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing a cold smile. He whispered to himself.

"Hmph, this bunch of ignorant fools probably don't even know what they're in for when they anger me! I'll let them have their moment of triumph for now. When the time is right, they will pay dearly for their actions!"

Two people walked out from the other side of the lane, their interest in shopping completely gone at this point.

Wang Lin held Xiaoyue's hand tightly, a flash of cold killing intent in his eyes. He said to her in a low and firm voice:

"Xiao Yue, you should go back first. Their target this time is me. If you stay with me, you'll probably be in great danger too."

However, Xiaoyue shook her head vigorously, her gaze unwavering like a rock, and replied resolutely.

"No, if we split up now, they might use me to threaten you. So, I absolutely will not leave your side, even in the face of death, I would rather die by your side!"

Having said that, Xiaoyue held Wang Lin's hand even tighter.

Wang Lin pondered for a moment, feeling that Xiaoyue's words were reasonable. He stopped persuading her and said, "Go home and pack your things. They know where you live. It's not safe here, so let's stay in a hotel with me first!"

The two left in haste. After returning home to pack their belongings, they rushed straight to the hotel where Wang Lin resided.

The two of them lost their interest in arguing at the hotel. After a quick wash, Wang Lin called Wang Erpao and explained the situation, asking the association and the local police station to communicate and not cause him any trouble.

One night passed in silence, and the next morning, Wang Lin received a call from the head of the Jiangshan City branch of the association, inviting him to meet at the branch office to help deal with his affairs.

When the two arrived at the Jiangshan branch, they saw that someone was already waiting outside. After greeting each other, they entered the branch together.

Several people sat in the conference room. The department manager immediately smiled and began introducing Wang Lin and his companion.

"I am Lou Jiangshan, refining my mind."

"Jinpiao, Lian Xin Jing"

"Xíng Quí, Lǐnxīn Jìng"

After being introduced by a few people, Wang Lin and the other person also stood up one after another to introduce themselves.

"Wang Lin, Refining the Heart Realm"

"Gao Yue, Lian Xin Jing"

"Welcome to Jiangshan City, the two of you. I've already alerted the police department about last night's incident, so no one will come looking for trouble! Now, how do you plan on handling this"

Mount Loujiang was very young and quite impulsive, directly getting to the point and asking Wang Lin.

Wang Lin looked at Lou Jiangshan, first smiling, then counter-questioned.

"According to the association rules, what should be done if someone attacks a member of the association"

"Simple and decisive!" Lou Jiangshan chuckled lightly, not feeling the slightest bit wrong about Wang Lin's killing, "However, I'm not clear about the ins and outs of this matter. Could you tell me more, Brother Wang"

"I've been in Jiangshan City for four days now, including today. Besides the first day when I might have offended someone, I've spent the following days with Xiaoyue and haven't really spoken to anyone else. There hasn't been a chance to offend anyone."

And, I can be sure that the person yesterday was someone I'd never met before, so it must have been orchestrated by someone.

"As you said, the mastermind is most likely the person they offended on the first day. But to be able to manipulate Awakened ones, their identity must be quite extraordinary, right"

"Well! Xie Jiawei, do you guys know"

"What! Xie family"

Jinpiao and Xing Kui's faces turned pale when they heard "Xie family." They looked at each other, both seeing fear in the other's eyes.

"Calm down, it's just the Xie family. What are you all so scared of!"

Lou Jiangshan, an old man with a godlike air, sat in his chair and glanced disdainfully at the two people.

"Members of the association are not to be disrespected! No matter who the other party is, anyone who dares to attack a member of the association must pay the price! Otherwise, what respect will the association have!"

When Jin Po Xing Kui heard Lou Jiangshan say this, the expressions of fear gradually subsided from their faces, but their expressions were still unnatural.

"Boss, that's the Xie family! They practically rule Jiangshan City. They're like a local emperor! And don't even get me started on their countless followers! How could we possibly compete with them" Jinpo said, his face pale with fear.

Xing Kui also agreed: "That's right, Big Brother, the Xie family is too powerful. Let's not provoke them..."

However, when Lou Jiangshan heard the words of these two people, his face instantly turned ashen. He was furious and roared angrily:

"You two good-for-nothings! Are you going to back down at the first sign of trouble We're only here to find the mastermind behind this, we're not trying to wipe out the entire Xie family! Even if they have a thousand followers, what difference does it make Those followers will only help when the Xie family is facing life or death!"

Speaking of which, Lou Jiangshan's emotions grew even more agitated. He continued to roar: "Besides, there are quite a few masters in our association. Could we possibly be afraid of a small Xie family Humph!"

Having said that, Lou Jiangshan let out a sneer and then cast his gaze upon Wang Lin beside him.

"Wang brothers, what do you think Should we set off for the Xie family immediately"

A resolute glint flashed in Wang Lin's eyes, he nodded without hesitation and replied: "Good! Then let's go. I want to see who wants my life!"ive you a call."The mayor took out his cell phone, said something to the crowd, and then got up and left the meeting room.A few minutes later, he pushed open the door and sat down on the chair again."...
