Lin Xiu circulated the fire elemental energy in his body and evaporated all the water stains on his body. He then flashed and floated back to his room.
Ever since he entered Mu City, he had experienced a series of battles and finally obtained the qualification to be a guest elder. However, he was worried about his mother and had been running around every day for the past few days. He had not had a good sleep at all.
At this moment, Lin Xiu lay down with his clothes on. Not long after, the sound of even breathing could be heard in the room.
In his sleep, Lin Xiu vaguely saw how he looked like when he was a child. At that time, he was still in his swaddling clothes and could only babble non-stop.
The person holding him in his arms was a man with an extremely outstanding appearance. This man was like a spear that shot into the sky, and his entire body emitted an endless sharpness.
Beside the man was a beautiful woman. This woman looked as gentle as water. Occasionally, when she looked at the child in the man's arms, her face flashed with motherly radiance.
Lin Xiu tried his best to open his eyes wide, wanting to see the woman's true appearance. But no matter how hard he tried, the woman's face seemed to always be covered by a layer of mist and he could not see clearly.
Lin Xiu, who was extremely anxious, struggled frantically and let out babbling sounds, scaring the man and woman to no end.
Right at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened and a few people in black armor floated down from the sky.
This man and woman suddenly looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy and revealed a nervous expression.
"Lin Zhong, how dare you!" One of the people who looked like the leader shouted at the man, then slashed the big sword in his hand at the man's head, as if he wanted to kill the man and the baby in his arms.
The edge of the sword flickered with a cold light and the power of the sword cut through the air with a series of sonic booms. If this sword really hit them, then the man and the baby in his arms would probably be in danger.
Even though this man looked extremely handsome and extraordinary, his true cultivation base was much weaker than those black-clothed men.
In a situation where he could not avoid it, the man gently pushed his wife away and then took a step forward. He hugged the baby with his left hand and struggled with all his might, but his right hand took the initiative to move toward the long sword.
"Ah!" The man suddenly let out a heart-wrenching scream. His right arm had been chopped off. Fresh blood gushed out and dyed the ground red.
However, in just an instant, the man gritted his teeth and controlled his body so that it wouldn't tremble too much and cause fear to the child in his arms.
The man, whose face was as pale as a sheet of paper, lowered his head and looked at the child in his arms gently. Then, he gently kissed the baby's forehead.
"Xiu 'er, I might not be able to take care of you and your mother in the future." After the man finished speaking, he was ready to hand over the baby in his arms to his wife.
However, what made him a little surprised was that the woman before him, who seemed especially delicate, had revealed a soaring aura at this moment. Even when he looked at his wife's back, he could feel that she was truly powerful and indescribable.
The man stared at his wife in a daze. She suddenly turned her head and gave him a gentle smile. Her face was filled with reluctance.
"Actually, in order to take care of your ego, I didn't have the nerve to tell you that you're actually too weak. So, leave everything to me from now on." Although the woman's words seemed to be merciless, the affection in her words made Lin Zhong's eyes gradually moisten.
He hugged his young son tightly. Then, his eyes widened as he watched his most beloved woman charge towards those extremely powerful black-armored people with his own eyes.
What made him slightly surprised was that even in the battle against those black-armored people, his wife still didn't seem to be at a disadvantage. In fact, she even had the upper hand.
The man started to have expectations. He felt that his wife would be able to resolve all the troubles in front of them. From then on, their family of three would hide their identities and flee far away.
The battle continued to be intense. Seeing that the scales of victory were tilting towards his family, the man couldn't help but smile happily. However, his wife, who had her back facing him, had a frosty expression.
Since their own families had already come knocking on their doors, with their personalities, how could they possibly let the matter rest so easily? The people in front of them were just appetizers. The real trump card was probably still waiting for them.
As the woman thought of this, she didn't dare to be too heavy-handed. She was carefully conserving every bit of her origin energy.
Even though she relied on the bloodline in her body to recover much faster than the people in front of her with a lower bloodline, these people still had the bloodline of their family. Furthermore, they had the advantage in numbers. Thus, it wasn't easy to deal with them in a short period of time.
The woman gradually started to panic. She suddenly turned her head and scolded, "Hurry up and leave with our son. If our son is hurt, I will hate you for the rest of my life."
His voice was filled with absolute sternness, and there was even a hint of despair in it.
When the man heard this, he couldn't understand the situation in front of him. His wife clearly had the upper hand, so why would she still say such words?
Very soon, the man found out the reason.
A large seal the size of a mountain directly enveloped half of the sky, causing the originally clear sky to turn pitch-black in an instant.
The woman and the man in black armor, who were fighting, stopped at that moment. Since the Seal of Mountains and Rivers had already appeared, there was no longer any meaning in the following battles.
Not long after, a white-haired old man with fluttering clothes suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth.
His clothes were very clean. Even though he was walking on the withered ground, there wasn't a single speck of dust on it.
The old man's footsteps were very slow, but it seemed like he had the ability to shrink the ground. The ground automatically moved backward under his feet. In just a few steps, the old man had already arrived in front of the woman. He then scolded her in a low voice.
"Why did you have to do this?"
When the woman saw the old man, it was as if she had seen a life-saving straw. She hurriedly knelt down.
"Third Grandpa, I only know that I was wrong. However, the father and son are innocent. Please let them go. I am willing to return to the clan and accept my punishment."
