Obvious.

As things stand now, his hopes are dashed.

"The Jin family from the ancient city?"

The man simply looked him up and down and quickly revealed his identity.

Jin Cancan shrank her neck and said, "Yes... yes, your guess is really accurate, haha."

He laughed dryly twice, and in between replies he flattered the other party subtly, fearing that the other party would break his neck if he was unhappy.

"Do you even need to guess?" The man looked at him with contempt. "Looking at the entire cultivation world, apart from your Jin family, who else would be so tasteless that they would want to hang the entire city on their bodies every day."

Jin Cancan: “…”

Knock in, knock in, do you hear me, you stinking idiot——

Just say what you want to say. Isn't it too much to make personal attacks?

The demons can insult his personality, but they can never insult the family behind him.

The young man prostrated himself on the ground and clenched his fists. Just as he was about to look up and scold the other party, he caught a glimpse of the man's long sword hanging lightly at his side.

There was still some blood stains on it that hadn't been wiped off.

"..."

The breath that was held in my chest dissipated instantly.

Jin Cancan tried hard to control her expression, afraid of revealing any emotion, and said in a very flattering tone, "Yes... you are right."

Forget it, just let it be an insult.

Anyway, their family doesn't care much about that kind of personality, it's not like they haven't been laughed at by other people in the cultivation world before.

I'm used to it.

He just felt a little sorry for the ancestor of the Jin family. He felt a little guilty for a second, but only for a second.

At this point, life is still the most important thing. I believe that when the ancestors know about this, they will be magnanimous and will not care so much about a junior like him.

Perhaps it was because he behaved too servilely that the other teenagers who were lying on the ground timidly glanced at him slightly.

Wow.

What a good "filial son and grandson".

The ancestor of the Jin family would probably laugh out loud in the underground when he heard this.

The man didn't seem to expect him to be such a loser. He didn't even dare to refute him. Instead, he agreed with what he said. The evil energy that was originally gathered in his left hand gradually dissipated.

He let out a light click of his tongue. He had originally planned to send this guy to see the ancestor of the Jin family if he didn't know what was best for him.

"Do you know what happened in the cultivation world recently?"

"..."

Should he know?

Jin Cancan's eyes turned dark. Damn, he just came out of the secret realm, what the hell does he know?

But of course he didn't dare to tell the truth, so he had to suppress his emotions and lower his eyes to continue listening to the other person's chatter.

The man didn't seem to care. He continued to answer his own question, "I heard that the Five Sects have called on many powerful people in the cultivation world to help. I got the news that your Jin family seems to be involved as well."

His tone sounded sinister, and Jin Cancan didn't dare to breathe, "I... I don't know."

"Well now you know." The man coldly threw a jade slip to him.

The jade slips they had previously obtained had been confiscated by the demons, so they couldn't even get out the message for help. Now, faced with the man's sudden action, Jin Cancan was a little confused.

"I'll give you a chance. Send a message back to the Jin family now and tell them that if they don't want to see your body, they need to know what to do and what not to do." This was the reason why he kept these people in the first place. "Also, tell them that if they want to save people, they should go to Taiyi Sect."

Looking at the jade slip at hand, Jin Cancan felt conflicted. He roughly understood what the demons meant. They just wanted the Jin family to stay in their territory obediently. This was not difficult, but the sentence at the end asking them to go to Taiyi Sect to rescue people was what made him most nervous.

Why go to Taiyi Sect?

He reasonably suspected that the other party had set an ambush there. After realizing this, he looked hesitantly at the jade slip next to him, not wanting to reach out to take it.

Jin Cancan admitted that she was indeed afraid of death. Just kidding, who would be so desperate as to seek death while still being able to live?

But if this obviously conspiracy-filled message is passed back, what if the demons trick our family members into harming us?

He hung his head and was reluctant to move. It was so quiet that he could hear his own heartbeat getting louder and louder. He could feel the man's gaze above his head getting colder and colder.

The boy couldn't help crying out loud in his heart, he really wanted to cry.

Sure enough, he is destined to die here today, right?

He stared at the ground and didn't dare to make any sound. Perhaps the man guessed his thoughts and sneered, "Why, you don't want to?"

Without waiting for Jin Cancan to reply, he casually glanced around and happened to see a girl trembling with her head hanging. He immediately raised his hand and slashed with the long black knife.

The next second, the girl was cut in half and she didn't even know how she died.

Everyone lay prone on the ground, trying desperately to swallow the scream that was already rising in their throats.

Warm blood splashed all over Jin Cancan's face. He raised his head blankly and met the girl's eyes filled with fear.

"I don't have any such thing as dying rather than obeying." The man's patience had obviously run out. "I will stop when you do as I say. Otherwise, I will kill one person every half an incense stick of time."

He spoke lightly, but his malice could not be concealed. "You must remember that these people died because of you."

These words are quite heavy for a teenager.

Jin Cancan almost vomited, and after the confusion, she felt deeply remorseful.

It was him...it was him who harmed the other person.

He grabbed the jade slip at hand in panic, and a tear fell the moment the light came on, but he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it away.

A shadow was cast on the side of him, and he knew that the other party was worried about him and deliberately came close to stare at him.

As soon as the jade slip was opened, a series of messages popped out. Jin Cancan was almost dazzled. After taking a quick glance, he did not dare to delay for a second and quickly passed the message on as the other party instructed.

Then the jade slip in his hand was taken away again.

He didn't dare to say a word, but just kept crying in his mind.

Dad, I'm sorry, Dad, he may not see the sun tomorrow.

Several of his companions nearby did not escape either, but unlike him, the man confirmed their identities only after asking in a cold voice.

After all, it is impossible for the demons to know all the big and small families in the world of cultivation.

The unlucky guy could be identified at a glance simply because he was wearing something that looked like a conspicuous bag.

Now Jin Cancan wanted to cry even more.

When he got home he threw all the clothes away; he wanted to turn over a new leaf and become a low-key person.

Wuuuu, who can save his life?

I don’t know what the demons are planning, but basically everyone who is familiar with him has a similar family background.

This time they were all caught in one fell swoop. Even if they knew there was something strange, I guess those family heads would not remain indifferent.
