SWNOVELXO Chapter 600 Poison, Control the Lin Family?_2
They knew that this young man from the Qin Family actually dared to make a move against their Lin Family.
Moreover, he even wanted to claim that treasure for himself.
This filled their hearts with rage.
The unresolved matters involving the Luo Family from Qingshi City in the Northern Desolate Divine Continent, and now this arrival of a top-tier family force from the Nanhuang Divine State—the Qin Family.
Indeed, it was a case of a fallen target attracting countless strikes.
In their Lin Family's peak days, no one dared to provoke them.
Yet now, with their strength diminished, countless people had stepped forward, wanting to carve out a piece of flesh from the Lin Family.
This left the Lin Family's Family Head seething with resentment.
"If that's the case, then let strength decide!"
Lin Zhentian took a deep breath and declared in a deep voice.
There was a sense of determination and resolve in his tone.
He understood that, at this moment, the Lin Family had no retreat left.
If they couldn't defeat this young man from the Qin Family, then the Lin Family would truly face total annihilation.
Thus, he had to fight with all his might to safeguard the foundations of his family.
Qin Tian, seeing this, showed no fear whatsoever.
He smiled faintly and said, "Since you refuse to recognize your position, don't blame me for being merciless."
As he spoke, he raised his palm, and a powerful aura radiated from it.
With a wave of his hand, a beam of immense energy shot towards the members of the Lin Family.
The members of the Lin Family's expressions shifted drastically upon witnessing this.
They realized that this young man from the Qin Family truly dared to attack them.
On top of that, his strength was incredibly formidable.
This filled their hearts with alarm and dread.
However, at this moment, they had no way out.
Only by summoning all their strength could they hope to resist the young man's attack.
Thus, they all activated their cultivation, channeling waves of powerful Qi-Blood Force to counter the energy beam.
Yet their attacks seemed utterly feeble before the energy beam.
The energy beam shattered their defenses effortlessly and continued its assault toward them without pause.
The members of the Lin Family turned pale upon seeing this.
They knew they were utterly incapable of fending off the attack from the young man of the Qin Family.
At this moment, their only hope lay with their Family Head.
However, the Lin Family's Family Head remained unmoving.
He simply stood quietly, his gaze deep as he stared at the Qin Family's young man.
Inside, his heart churned with raging waves.
He had discovered just how overwhelming the young man's strength truly was.
Even in his prime, he doubted he could fend off this young man's attacks.
This realization gripped him with inner turmoil and unease.
He knew now that for the Lin Family, hope was forlorn.
Yet, he had no room to retreat.
Because he knew that if he were to retreat, it would mean the Lin Family's total demise.
Thus, he had to fight with all his might to maintain the family's foundations.
Once this was resolved in his mind, he took a deep breath and activated his cultivation.
A powerful aura radiated forth from his body.
At this moment, his figure also seemed to grow taller and more commanding.
He charged toward the Qin Family's young man with fierce determination.
From his body erupted a surge of Qi-Blood Force, directed squarely at the young man from the Qin Family.
The Qin Family's young man, seeing this, showed no sign of fear.
He simply smiled faintly and waved his hand.
Once again, an energy beam of immense power shot forth from his palm.
That energy beam shattered the Lin Family Head's attack effortlessly and continued its unyielding assault toward him.
The Lin Family Head's expression shifted drastically upon seeing this.
He understood that he was no match for the Qin Family's young man.
At this point, he could only hope for help from others.
However, at this juncture, the others were struggling to protect themselves and were in no position to aid him.
Left with no choice, he fiercely swung the longsword in his hand at the energy beam.
"Clang!"
There echoed a resonant clash of metal.
The Lin Family Head's longsword shattered under the impact of the energy beam.
Yet the beam continued its relentless advance toward him.
The Lin Family Head's expression shifted drastically once more.
He knew he could no longer resist the energy beam.
At this moment, he could only pin his hopes on a miracle.
But miracles are elusive.
The energy beam struck him squarely, sending him flying.
His figure traced an arc through the air before crashing heavily onto the ground.
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his lips.
His face turned pale in that instant.
He realized that he was gravely injured and incapable of fighting on.
Meanwhile, the young man from the Qin Family slowly approached.
His gaze fell coldly upon the Lin Family Head.
"Do you still have anything left to say?" he asked icily.
Hearing this, the Lin Family Head forced a bitter smile.
He said, "Young Master Qin, what if I offered up the item you seek with both hands; would the Qin Family be willing to help my Lin Family deal with the Luo Family's onslaught from Qingshi City in the Northern Desolate Divine Continent?"
Qin Tian raised an eyebrow at this.
With a sardonic smile, he said, "Do you think you're in any position to negotiate with me?"
The Lin Family Head froze at those words.
Only then did he realize that the young man from the Qin Family was far beyond their power to resist.
Moreover, the Lin Family's disadvantaged status left them with no room to negotiate terms.
This realization filled his heart with bitter resignation.
He knew the Lin Family was truly finished this time.
Yet he couldn't afford to give up.
He had to fight with all his might to maintain the family's foundations.
Thus, he took a deep breath and said, "Young Master Qin, as long as you help my Lin Family through this crisis, we're willing to pay any price."
Qin Tian smiled faintly upon hearing this.
He said, "Any price? Are you certain?"
Hearing this, the Lin Family Head's heart trembled.
He could sense the coldness and killing intent woven into the young man's words.
This unease gripped him deeply.
Yet, for the sake of his family, he could only push forward and say, "I am certain!"
Qin Tian's lips curled into a cold smirk.
He said, "Very well. Since you are so sincere, I will grant you an opportunity."
As he spoke, he raised his palm, emitting yet another powerful aura.
He waved his hand, sending another energy beam hurtling toward the Lin Family's members.
This time, however, he refrained from annihilating the nearby Lin Family members.
It seemed as though this strike was only meant to intimidate.
The Lin Family Head let out a heavy breath of relief as he realized this.
He understood that the young man from the Qin Family had decided to negotiate with the Lin Family.
At this moment, he had to seize this chance to save his family's foundations.
He quickly said, "Thank you, Young Master Qin, for your mercy. As long as you help our Lin Family weather this crisis, we are willing to pay any price."
Qin Tian said casually, "The price I demand will not be simple."
As he spoke, he stepped closer to the Lin Family Head and extended his palm.
In his palm appeared a small jade bottle.
"What is this?"
The Lin Family Head was stunned.
Qin Tian replied flatly, "This is a poison specially crafted by my Qin Family. If you consume it, I will help your Lin Family through this crisis."
