Chapter 434: Accompanying Him to the Grave
166th floor.
Clang—!!
The straight blade slashed towards the high platform but suddenly halted mid-air, as if an invisible wall stood between Lin Qiye and them, blocking all external attacks.
Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed tightly, his hands gripping the knife turning pale, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t pierce the blade into the slightest bit ahead.
“Captain Lin, do you really think… the Baili family is so easy to bully?”
Standing on the high platform, Baili Xin squinted at Lin Qiye, his deep voice revealing no emotion. He gently pushed his wine glass forward, and the rim seemed to touch an invisible boundary, producing a crisp hum.
“The Wall of Sighs.” Baili Xin murmured softly.
In the next moment, a heavy sigh suddenly echoed in Lin Qiye’s ears. The voice was genderless but filled with helplessness and weariness.
The instant the voice rang in Lin Qiye’s ears, he felt as if he had been struck by a giant hammer; the terrifying repulsive force sent him flying, causing his internal organs to tremble violently, like a glass cup on the edge of a wall, ready to shatter at any moment!
Lin Qiye crashed through two massive pillars and flew out of the building through the shattered floor-to-ceiling window. Enduring the excruciating pain, he hurled one of his straight knives back into the building, then his figure vanished into the sea of clouds.
Swish—!
As the straight knife flew back to the 166th floor, the reverse summoning magic activated, and Lin Qiye was teleported back indoors.
Holding the straight knife, he stood at the edge of the floor, his gaze towards the high platform filled with gravity.
He could almost confirm that the invisible wall surrounding Baili Xin was definitely not an ordinary forbidden object. Just the sound of that terrifying sigh was enough to classify it as a super high-risk forbidden object. If it weren’t for Lin Qiye’s significantly increased defense due to the enhancement of the “Starry Night Dancer,” his internal organs might have already been shattered.
Moreover, with the accompanying defensive ability, this was likely a super high-risk forbidden object, one of Baili Xin’s treasures, just like the “White Slash” that could cut down thousands regardless of distance.
And such a terrifying super high-risk forbidden object, Baili Xin had ten more in his possession!
“Don’t say it’s just a special team’s reserve squad; even the ‘Mask’ team wouldn’t dare to act against our Baili Group here.” Baili Xin spoke calmly, “Captain Lin, you are still too young…
You have no idea how terrifying the foundation of the Baili family truly is.”
As his words fell, Baili Xin waved his hand, and the white light with teleportation power reappeared around the high platform. One figure after another stepped out from the light, standing before Baili Xin and the others.
Some held ancient long swords, some wielded antelope horns, some wore tattered cloaks, some stood on two light wheels, and some had a terrifying blood-red eyeball floating behind them… Each of them was a wielder of forbidden objects.
Not more, not less, exactly twelve people.
The moment they appeared on this floor, a powerful pressure suddenly descended. The 010 team, who were fighting with Jialan and the others, changed their expressions, turning to see this scene, their eyes filled with horror.
One “Sea” realm, three “Wuliang,” and one “Klein.”
This lineup completely crushed any team Wei Xiuming had ever seen. He had no doubt that with just these twelve wielders of forbidden objects, the Baili family could face the 006 team from Shangjing City head-on!
In other words, the Baili family always had a super strong combat force comparable to the Shangjing City teams on standby!
This is the foundation of the Baili family… one of them.
“The Twelve Zodiac, I greet the Chairman.” The leading “Klein” realm expert turned around and said respectfully.
Baili Xin nodded slightly, his gaze falling back to the edge of the floor, on the young man standing before the floor-to-ceiling window, and spoke lightly:
“Captain Lin, now… do you have a clearer understanding of reality?
If you withdraw now and leave, I can treat everything that just happened as if it never occurred. You can also take the ‘White Slash’ with you, and the promises that Chang Kangsheng made to you before still stand.
The Baili family has already shown its sincerity…
Now, it’s your turn.”
As Baili Xin’s words fell, even the 010 team, who were fighting with Jialan and the others, stopped and turned to look at Lin Qiye, waiting for him to make a decision.
The howling wind rushed into the empty hall, producing a series of whimpers.
The corners of Lin Qiye’s suit fluttered as he calmly gazed at the twelve figures standing before the high platform, slowly taking a step forward.
Tap, tap, tap…
The footsteps echoed in the spacious venue. Under the layered terrifying pressure, Lin Qiye’s steps felt somewhat heavy, but his back showed no sign of bending. He held his head high and walked slowly yet firmly towards the high platform.
Baili Xin’s brows furrowed slightly.
Wei Xiuming and the others looked on in shock, unable to comprehend everything before them. Clearly, Baili Xin had demonstrated how terrifying the Baili family’s foundation was; why did he still dare to move forward?
Did he really think he could contend against those twelve wielders of forbidden objects?
The Baili Group had already made concessions and offered a way out; why wouldn’t he relent?
Was a mere Baili Tuming that important?
“Madman, he’s a madman…” Wei Xiuming muttered to himself.
Lin Qiye gripped his dual knives, a wave of night spreading from him as the center. He gazed at Baili Xin on the high platform and slowly spoke:
“I don’t care about any forbidden objects.”
“I also don’t care about any mental compensation.”
“I’m even less interested in the twists and turns within your Baili family.”
“Even the position of captain of this special team isn’t that important…”
He raised his knife, pointing the tip at the high platform, his eyes filled with killing intent.
“But… if you dare to lay a hand on my brother,
I will ensure that the entire Baili family pays for it with their lives!!”
Boom—!!
A thunderclap suddenly pierced the clear sky, a low hum resonating in the air. A noblewoman in a black starry dress appeared behind Lin Qiye, slowly merging with him…
Soul bearing.
In the next moment, the divine might of the God of Night descended!
Lin Qiye’s short hair grew at an astonishing speed, transforming into long black hair that cascaded down to his waist in the blink of an eye. In his deep-set eyes, the brilliant light of countless stars ignited, as if containing the entire night sky.
The fierce wind whipped his long hair, the hem of his suit rustling in the breeze. He stepped into the night, and the surrounding light dimmed at a visible rate.
Outside the main building, the clear sky was engulfed in darkness in just two seconds, as if it were not the blazing noon but midnight, the pitch-black night wrapping around Lin Qiye like a long robe, gently draping behind him.
