Although Wu Xiang's cold smile was fleeting, Lin Chen had already keenly noticed it.

However, Lin Chen, skilled and bold, showed no reaction, for he wanted to see what kind of trickery Wu Xiang was up to.

Lin Chen sipped his tea unhurriedly, as the sky gradually darkened and many employees of the Taoyuan Group had already left work.

In the meantime, Wu Xiang personally came over and apologetically said, "The medicine was delayed in a traffic jam on the highway; it might arrive a bit later."

Seeing Wu Xiang's evasive eyes, Lin Chen was certain there was something amiss with this man.

A trace of coldness crossed Lin Chen's lips just as Wu Xiang's phone rang.

After ending the call, Wu Xiang wore a smile on his face, "Mr. Lin, the medicine has arrived; I'll go get it for you now."

With that, Wu Xiang hurriedly left the room.

Not long after, a noisy clatter of footsteps outside suddenly erupted, the hallway visible to Lin Chen through X-ray vision.

More than twenty people burst in, the three leaders among them possessing True Yuan Realm cultivation, and the rest were all of Innate Realm; all of them wore sunglasses, looking aggressively formidable.

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly; the real show was finally about to begin.

"Bang!" The door was kicked open by the leader, and over twenty men filed in.

The faces of these men brimmed with murderous intent as they surrounded Lin Chen.

At that moment, a familiar face in the crowd stepped forward, venomously pointing at Lin Chen, "Elder Bai, this is the young man who killed the fourth and fifth elders. Moreover, he and the Family Head entered the relic together, the Family Head never came out, but he did. This guy must have used some despicable means to kill the Family Head."

Elder Bai Tang coldly glanced at Lin Chen, "You are Lin Chen? Now I give you two choices, hand over the treasures you acquired in the relic, and I may spare your life, otherwise, you die."

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly; these people had practically rushed directly towards this VIP room, and just now, the staff members who had been attending to him had almost all left the VIP room simultaneously. All these signs were not coincidental, which meant, Taoyuan Group had sold him out.

Lin Chen coldly said, "I don't like either of those options. I also give you two choices, either all die here or all get lost."

"What did you say?" Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, the Bai family members actually laughed.

"This kid is too arrogant! With just him alone, he could kill so many elites of the Bai family."

"Indeed, we have three True Yuan Realm Martial Artists in place, and this kid still dares to be so arrogant."

Bai Yu pointed at Lin Chen, "Elder, this kid is extremely tricky; you must not be careless, kill him."

Elder Bai Tang snorted coldly, murder flashing in his eyes, "Boy, since you refuse to hand over the treasures from the relic, then don't blame us for being ruthless. As for the treasures you obtained, we will just kill you and take them from your body!"

As he spoke, a cold aura burst out from Bai Tang's body, his eyes, cold as a serpent's, firmly locked on Lin Chen.

"Want to kill me? I'm afraid you are not qualified enough," Lin Chen snorted coldly, staring indifferently at Bai Tang.

"Arrogant fool, now I will show you what it means to wish for death," Bai Tang waved his hand as the command fell from his lips.

"Yes, Elder!"

Two True Yuan Realm powerhouses burst out from behind Bai Tang like lightning, charging towards Lin Chen.

Both True Yuan Realm powerhouses possessed ice attributes; when they struck simultaneously, waves of chill air instantly covered the VIP room with frost.

"Ice Blade Sword!"

"Xuanbing Palm!"

One transformed his chill into a giant sword, and the other into a giant palm, almost simultaneously pressing down towards Lin Chen.

In just an instant, the air around Lin Chen was enveloped by the chill, and a layer of frost formed on his body.

Watching this scene, the corners of many members of the Bai family curled into icy smiles.

Bai Yu, with a resentful gaze that flickered with pleasure, said, "This kid dares to oppose my Bai family. He deserves to become ice slag!"

All the Bai family members watched this scene with cold eyes, and the combined might of two ice-elemental powers was enough to reduce Lin Chen into dregs, melting into blood water.

The Bai family is one of the eight great powers; to think that a boy not yet twenty would dare to challenge their authority was akin to a moth darting into the flame, totally ignorant of death.

Lin Chen felt his body being wrapped in a layer of ice. If it had been the previous him, he likely would not have had the chance to even retaliate before becoming an ice pillar.

However, the Lin Chen of now was just a step away from the Primordial Spirit Realm, so what could the attack of two True Yuan powerhouses amount to?

"Such petty tricks, break for me!"

Lin Chen snorted coldly, as Spiritual Energy surged around his body instantly melting the surrounding ice, and in the next instant, Lin Chen flashed, appearing right in front of the two True Yuan powerhouses.

"Get back!"

Lin Chen swung both palms, advancing rather than retreating, intending to face the two True Yuan powerhouses head-on.

"Has this kid lost his mind? He actually wants to confront two True Yuan realm powerhouses alone."

"Could it be that this kid is tired of living, desperately seeking death?"

The people of the Bai family, seeing Lin Chen facing the attack of the two True Yuan powerhouses without dodging or evading and instead charging forward, all showed expressions of amazement.

Lin Chen's action was undoubtedly like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, practically suicidal.

However, at that moment, the two True Yuan realm powerhouses attacking Lin Chen suddenly had a drastic change in their expressions.

Because they felt that the wave of Spiritual Energy emanating from Lin Chen had completely shattered their aura into pieces.

Boom!

Finally, Lin Chen's palms collided with the attacks from the two True Yuan realm powerhouses of the Bai family.

A palm and a sword instantly enveloped Lin Chen; the martial artists of the Bai family eagerly watched, expecting to see Lin Chen blasted into smithereens and turned into liquid, for in their eyes, falling under the joint hands of two True Yuan realm powerhouses meant certain death.

However, quickly, expressions of astonishment appeared on the faces of the Bai family martial artists, each of them gaping open-mouthed, speechless.

The huge palm formed of Xuanbing suddenly shattered, and that ice sword also turned into ice water in mid-air.

Bang, bang!

Golden-purple flames roared between Lin Chen's palms, instantly enveloping the two True Yuan martial artists.

The two True Yuan realm powerhouses were blasted away by Lin Chen's palm, crashing into the wall heavily.

Splutter, splutter, the two True Yuan powerhouses had just tried to stand up, but each spat out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Chen's gaze was icy as he spoke to the Bai family martial artists, "I don't want to kill people. Everyone, keep your distance. This is just a warning. Next time, whoever steps up dies!"

Hearing Lin Chen's domineering words, the people of the Bai family fell silent.

The expression of the Family Head turned livid. He had never imagined that this young man could be so formidable, actually repelling two True Yuan powerhouses with a single palm.

He gritted his teeth and with a cold gaze commanded the other Bai family martial artists , "Attack together, kill this kid."

"Yes, everyone attack, kill him." The other Bai family martial artists all showed murderous intent, and more than twenty people surged forward, enveloping Lin Chen with a barrage of ice attacks.

Watching the Bai family martial artists charging towards him, Lin Chen's eyes turned colder, and a thick intent to kill appeared on his face: "Since you are seeking death, then I'll oblige!"
