Chapter 1413: All Because of a Single Glance

However, she soon became confused. What was wrong with her? Why was she scared by a fool?

Indescribable anger and shame surged in her heart. Just as she was about to speak, endless chills spread throughout her when she tried to meet Lin Xun\'s clear and deep gaze.

It felt as if a supreme god was staring at her, which made her feel like an ant!

Lin Xun asked, "Have I, Lin Xun, ever treated you badly?"

His expression was neither sad nor happy, but calm and still like the water in an old well.

Xiaocao subconsciously shook her head.

Her mind had become blank. What was going on?

"Damn, this fool has a lot to say. Are you still hoping that Miss Xiaocao will let you off on account of old ties?"

One of the lackeys impatiently shouted, "Brothers, its time to send our little young master of the Lin Family on his way!"

Clang!

He pulled out a gleaming blade and raised it high into the air.

Lin Xun glanced at him.

Although it was a mere glance, an inconceivable scene soon followed.

The blade shattered inch by inch in the air, followed by the lackeys hand, arm, body, and head...

He burst apart like an exploding snowman, splattering blood and flesh onto the ground.

The bizarre and inconceivable scene made the other lackeys eyes widen in alarm and nearly pop out of their sockets.

"You You..."

They trembled as their expressions changed drastically, unable to form a coherent sentence.

Lin Xun glanced at them. "Do you think a fool like me can only be slaughtered and doesnt know how to fight back?"

Next, these fierce and strong Wang Family servants exploded inch by inch, dyeing the white ground a shocking scarlet.

Xiaocao was dumbfounded. Her emotions spiraled out of control as she screamed, "You are not that fool, so who are you?!"

Lin Xun indifferently answered, "I am who I am. That has and will never change."

"Impossible!"

Xiaocaos face turned deathly pale. "If you are that fool, why would you watch the Lin Family fall into ruin? Why would you watch your parents die? Why did you allow the Lin Family to expel you? Why did you ignore all shame and dignity and pick up a chicken bone thrown by someone else?"

Lin Xun said, "Because I hadnt figured it out then, but I understand now."

Xiaocao appeared confused. "So easily?"

"It wasnt easy."

Lin Xun softly sighed. He looked at the two tombstones and said, "I\'ve thought about this question for far too many years. If I had figured it out earlier, they wouldn\'t have died..."

Xiaocao was stunned.

For the first time, she realized that she seemed to have never understood Lin Xun despite serving him for many years.

Was he...really a fool?

Lin Xun said as he walked away, "You wont be able to accept it if you were to die just like this. Follow me."

Dressed in white with his hands behind his back, he no longer appeared lonely and pitiful as he walked amidst the wind and snow. Instead, he gave off a presence that would make rivers and mountains bow in submission no matter how mighty or great they were.

Xiaocao followed like a lost soul as if it would be an unforgivable crime for her to disobey or refuse!

Yujing City.

When he reappeared in the city, Lin Xun was no longer the same Lin Xun.

Or perhaps it would be better to say that this was how he should have always been.

"Hey, isn\'t it that fool? I cant believe he hasnt frozen to death."

Numerous young nobles were still gathered in the same restaurant from before with the Lin Family disciples seated in remote corners.

Upon hearing Lin Xun being mentioned, the Lin Family disciples became so angry that their faces turned stormy. Why did the fool appear again?

Someone scoffed, "Tsk, has he become addicted after picking up the chicken bone yesterday?"

"Come come come, get me some chicken bones so I can feed him!"

Someone rolled up his sleeves and picked up a chicken bone, seeking to emulate Wang Zilong\'s actions from yesterday and reward Lin Xun with some bones to eat.

The others also began to jeer.

Unable to hold back any longer, a Lin Family disciple rushed to the window and yelled with an expression that was twisted with anger, "Lin Xun, why don\'t you die? Have you not brought enough shame to the Lin Family? Scram! I don\'t ever want to see you in the city again!"

Piak!

As soon as the words left his mouth, he was slapped by one of the young nobles who scolded, "Get out of the way. Don\'t ruin our fun!"

The Lin Family disciple fell and hit his head, causing it to bleed. However, he could only endure the pain and pinch his mouth shut, not daring to say anything.

Inside, he grew increasingly infuriated with Lin Xun.

Lin Xun watched the entire thing play out. He saw the resentful and aggrieved expressions of the Lin Family disciples.

He also saw the mocking and amused expressions of the young nobles who wanted to make entertainment out of him.

The only thing missing was Wang Zilong.

It made Lin Xun feel a little regretful, but he soon cast such thoughts aside. After all, he would probably be seeing Wang Zilong later.

"Lin Xun, come here and take these bones. If you bark twice like a dog, I might even reward you with a cup of wine if Im in a good mood."

A young man in expensive robes stood at the window laughing as he threw out a handful of bones.

The others excitedly watched in anticipation.

Only the Lin Family disciples expressions were gloomy. However, they werent angry for Lin Xun, but angry at him for making them lose face!

The bones flew through the air...

Lin Xun stopped and observed the scene without the slightest change in expression.

As the bones flew toward him, however, they suddenly froze mid-air as if being caught by an invisible hand.

Eh?

The watching young nobles were stunned as the originally lively atmosphere turned strangely silent.

Whoosh!

One of the bones suddenly flew backward, thrusting through the air as if it were a sword.

The smile on the young man by the window who had thrown the bones suddenly froze.

The bone had pierced his throat, causing fresh blood to gush out.

The young man in expensive robes widened his eyes and clutched his throat. He seemed to want to say something, but could only produce a gurgling noise.

Thud!

Soon after, he went limp and fell to the ground.

The other young nobles finally realized that something was wrong. Their faces changed drastically as they jumped to their feet in alarm, causing the restaurant to descend into chaos.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The remaining bones that were still frozen in the air also shot toward the restaurant like sharp swords.

Every young nobles throat was pierced no matter how they tried to dodge or how loudly they screamed.

The bones were simply too terrifyingly accurate, fast, and sharp!

It was as if they were no different from peerless swords.

In the restaurant, the rowdy atmosphere was rapidly replaced by a dreadful silence with corpses lying in pools of their own blood.

Everyone\'s throats were pierced and bleeding profusely.

All of the boisterous young nobles who had so fearlessly wanted to humiliate Lin Xun were now...dead!

The Lin Family disciples had not been killed, but they were so frightened that they also fell to the ground trembling, their minds completely blank.

None of them knew who the killer was.

Because all Lin Xun had done was raise his gaze and glance at them from the street.

Only Xiaocao knew that it was Lin Xun who had killed the young nobles!

After all, he had killed the Wang Familys lackeys in the same manner earlier.

Everything happened because of a single glance from Lin Xun...

This made Xiaocao\'s heart tremble violently as her confusion grew even greater. She couldn\'t understand how a fool who had been ridiculed, trampled on, and humiliated for more than twenty years until he became the laughing stock of the city would suddenly become another person in the blink of an eye.

She genuinely couldnt understand it.

Lin Xun withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened and walked away with his hands behind his back.

His unfazed appearance only made Xiaocao increasingly confused. She couldnt help but blurt out, "Those people you killed are from powerful factions. They definitely wont let you off!"

She thought that Lin Xun would be scared or at least finally show some kind of reaction.

However, he was unaffected. From start to end, his steps remained eerily methodological, making him appear calm, confident, and completely at ease.

Xiaocao was stunned. She could only grit her teeth and continue to follow him.

Behind them, cries of surprise rang out from the restaurant followed by a growing commotion.

Xiaocao knew that the deaths of the young nobles was destined to set off a huge storm in Yujing City!

However, she couldnt care less about such matters at the moment.

Upon realizing that Lin Xun seemed to be headed toward the Wang Familys territory, Xiaocao couldn\'t help but stiffen as she cried out, "You...are you going to the Wang Family?"

Lin Xun didnt even bother looking back as he nonchalantly said, "Youd best calm down or you might not be able to take what happens next. Hmm, if so, youll be missing out on many interesting things."

Xiaocao gritted her teeth. She stared at Lin Xun\'s back and inwardly said, "Isnt going to the Wang Family no different from walking to your death? I only wished that you had gone sooner!"

These thoughts calmed her down.

The Wang Family was the number one faction in Yujing City. They boasted unmatched authority and influence and had many powerful experts. Most importantly, there was no one who didnt know that the Wang Family\'s most prided son-in-law, Huangfu Shao Yu, was currently present along with Wang Ziluan.

This was the same Huangfu Shao Yu who was the successor of Qingyun Sect!

Lin Xun soon saw the Wang Familys residence.

The entire residence occupied an area of over a hundred acres. Its gated entrance was tall and majestic with the stone statue of a guardian beast in front of it and teams of guards stationed on both sides. The guards gave off strong presences and looked extremely intimidating.

Presently, numerous carriages and mounts were lined up in front of the gates.

Noteworthy bigwigs from the city handed over their invitations and were led into the residence one after another.

The stream of traffic seemed almost endless.

Since last night, people had been visiting the Wang Family like an unending stream of flowing water. From this, one could tell just how influential the Wang Family currently was in Yujing City.

In contrast, the current Lin Family was essentially deserted. They had already fallen to a state where no one cared about them anymore.
