017: Hunt The Killers!

"It will not happen." Lin Xian replied confidently. A killer wouldn't take such a big risk if they were to aim for a target in a lawless city like Nigel City.

Hearing Lin Xian's answer, his sister calmed down. But she didn't know that Lin Xian was trying to hunt down those killers.

Evening came. Lin Xian tells his sister to sleep first and not cultivate because he plans to chase the killer.

As usual, Liu Xue immediately hugged Lin Xian while sleeping, which gave Lin Xian a headache.

"Hmmm, can you not do that? I'm an adult." Lin Xian said in a tired tone which made his sister frown.

"Fine. But you have to sleep next to me. Don't stay away from me." Liu Xue's orders.

"All right, I won't be far." Lin Xian replied.

Liu Xue smiled at Lin Xian's answer. They talked for a while, and Liu Xue fell asleep soon after.

Seeing his sleeping sister, Lin Xian got off the bed slowly. He immediately sneaked out of the room to lure the killer out.

When Lin Xian came out, Liu Xue opened her eyes. She had already expected Lin Xian to aim for the person who had tried to kill them earlier Because Lin Xian would never refuse If he were to hug her while sleeping. Liu Xue clenched her fists tightly, feeling a burden.

"I'm sorry, Xian'er; next time, I will try and cultivate harder so I can protect you," whispered Liu Xue. Then sat cross-legged and started cultivating again.

***

Lin Xian was currently exiting the inn. He slowly walks in a certain direction to lure the killers out of their hiding places.

The two-robed individuals are, seeing that constricted instantly.

"Did that boy tell us to get out on purpose?" asked the first individual while narrowing her eyes toward where Lin Xian was.

"I don't know. But this is an opportunity. We have wasted a day hunting this brat," said the second individual.

"Okay. Let's follow him. Then kill him if we get the chance," said the first individual.

The two of them immediately moved to follow Lin Xian from behind. At first, Lin Xian passed through a fairly crowded place which made the two killers feel astonished and think Lin Xian just wanted to go around town.

However, not long after, Lin Xian passed by an extremely quiet place and rarely passed by people.

"This is an opportunity! Let's kill That brat Here!" Said the second individual.

The first individual felt something was wrong but still nodded her head. The two of them immediately drew closer to Lin Xian slowly.

After reaching a certain distance, the two directly threw another needle toward Lin Xian.

Lin Xian looked to hastily avoid it. He looked a bit scared while looking around him, then ran away as fast as he could.

"Looks like he's scared. Let's kill him!" Said the second individual.

The two of them immediately followed Lin Xian as fast as they could. The two of them saw Lin Xian turn a tall building.

Because the building was too tall, the two of them finally went downstairs to catch up to Lin Xian.

When they turned to where Lin Xian had run, a sword blade suddenly slashed toward the two of them.

Sraing!

The slash hit one of the two of them and instantly sliced her in two by the neck.

[DING!]

"Finally, you two are down! I thought you'd stay hidden." Lin Xian said with an evil smile.

"You!" The killer was frightened, took out a short sword, and directly slashed at Lin Xian.

Lin Xian used the "Freeze time" technique so he could already predict the direction of his opponent's slashes.

Lin Xian immediately took a step back and tilted his body slightly. After that, he created a repulsive force on his feet and shot toward the enemy. He immediately slashed with all his might toward the enemy, who was still surprised by his response.

The killer hurriedly avoided Lin Xian's slash as best she could.

Slashed!

The slash hit her neck slightly. She wanted to retaliate, but Lin Xian's fist shot toward her face.

BUGH!

Lin Xian's fist hit her face, and she opened her veil.

When the veil is opened, you can see a little girl who already has a face pale with fear.

"Oh, little girl?" Lin Xian smiled slightly as he slowly walked toward the little girl.

"Please don't kill me." The little girl begged desperately.

"Did you think I'll spare you just because you're a little girl? I'm not that stupid!" Lin Xian immediately shot toward the little girl with a terrifying killing aura.

The little girl knew her life would be over and immediately prostrated herself on the ground, which surprised Lin Xian slightly.

"I beg you; please don't kill me. I'll give anything." The little girl said that made Lin Xian stop.

Lin Xian actually didn't want to spare the enemy. However, he felt the girl who looked one year younger than him didn't reek of blood like the previous killer. And from the start, he didn't feel any killing intent from the little girl in front of him.

"Tell me, why should I spare you?" Lin Xian said as he stared intently at the little girl prostrating before him.

Hearing Lin Xian's question, the girl didn't know what to answer.

Lin Xian remained calm even though he was very alert.

Lin Xian narrowed his eyes and blinked twice; suddenly, a hologram appeared in front of Lin Xian's face.

[Smart Analysis!]

[Name: Yi Qi]

[Age: 14 Years old]

[Level: First Stage of Qi Refining]

[Condition: Healthy]

"Tell me, why should I spare you after you tried to kill me?" Lin Xian asked again in a cold tone.

"I... I... Please don't kill me. I don't know what to do to survive. I have never killed anyone once. I just brought other solid evidence to satisfy the people who hired me." Yi Qi replied nervously.

Lin Xian narrowed his eyes, hearing Yi Qi's answer. He didn't fully believe it, even though his instincts told him Yi Qi wasn't lying.

"Why should I believe your words?" Lin Xian asked again.

Yi Qi didn't know how to answer Lin Xian's question Because there was no reason for anyone to believe such words.

"I beg you. I will do anything." Yi Qi constantly bowed her head to the ground while pleading.

Lin Xian was conflicted about whether or not to kill the little girl in front of him.

"System, is there something that can turn someone into a slave or something?" Lin Xian asked in his mind.

[Yes. There is a special technique to turn someone into a slave]

"How much does the technique cost?" Lin Xian asked.

[There are various kinds of techniques to enslave someone. The cheapest is 500 points]

Lin Xian's face contorted instantly as he only had 132 points.

"Damn it!"
