"I'm afraid you won't be luring me away, old man. The bounty on the Lin Family is quite something this time. The sect posted a reward equivalent to three missions. To attract so many experts at once, you should feel honored."
The blurry figure shot through the crowd and landed lightly in front of Lin Shunhe's horse, blocking the path. The startled horse reared slightly, nearly falling.
"This old one..." Elder Du began as he moved to dismount.
Suddenly, he saw the figure dash forward, unexpectedly flashing past him, past Lin Shunhe and Lin Hui, and heading straight for the Lin Mansion's carriage at the front of the procession.
Their target wasn't them, but Liu Shenglan in the carriage!
"Oh no!" Elder Du rushed forward, but he was a step too slow.
"Hahaha! The first prize is mine!" The blurry figure drew two blades, unleashing them in two silvery arcs that slashed at the carriage from both the left and right.
