Chapter 391: Slaughter Before the City Gate
Grasping the man’s neck with one hand, Lin Yun coldly scanned the other five. The man in his grip struggled ceaselessly, but he discovered that against Lin Yun, he was like a helpless child, completely unable to break free from his arm.
"Kid, let him go right now, or else..." the Mo Family leader threatened Lin Yun. However, Lin Yun cut him off before he could finish his sentence.
"Or else you’ll see to it I die without a burial ground, is that it? If you think you’ve got what it takes, then by all means, come and get me." Lin Yun appeared completely at ease, showing none of the terror the Mo Family members had expected.
As he finished speaking, Lin Yun glanced at the man dangling from his hand. A cold sneer touched his lips as he murmured, as if to himself, "Since you want to kill me, then you should also be prepared to be killed by me."
As he spoke, the smile on Lin Yun’s face grew colder. Feeling the killing intent radiating from Lin Yun, the man finally cast aside the arrogance of a Mo Family Guard and hurriedly begged for mercy. "We’re just following orders! Let me go, let me go..."
"Kid, let him go, and we can..." The leader, also sensing Lin Yun’s killing intent, hurriedly tried to speak. But before he was halfway through his sentence, Lin Yun squeezed slightly, effortlessly crushing the man’s throat.
He tossed the corpse aside casually. No one could have imagined Lin Yun would actually dare to kill him. It had been years since anyone in Jincheng had so brazenly challenged the Mo Family’s authority.
"You... killed him?" The Mo Family leader was momentarily too stunned to process what had happened.
The scene fell deathly silent. Things had now escalated completely. A Mo Family Guard had been killed—the Mo Family would certainly not let this rest. After all, the Mo Family reigned supreme in Jincheng, with no other family or power capable of threatening their position.
Reigning supreme without threat meant the Mo Family’s authority was inviolable. For someone like Lin Yun to kill a Mo Family Guard in front of a crowd of thousands—the Mo Family would surely never let the matter rest.
