"If you know what's good for you, hurry up and get out of here. Otherwise, I'll slap you to death!"

The black clothed man said in a cold voice. Although his words did not have the demeanor of an expert, one could tell that he was serious.

"Senior, I wonder who you are? There are only a handful of experts at the Core Formation Stage in the 18 cities of the Nine Prefectures!" Since Senior wants to participate in this matter, why don't you dare reveal your true colors to me? "

Li Qinglin cupped his hands and said with a serious expression. He had to obtain the Qilin tears today. He didn't know what this Core Formation expert meant. Could it be that he also wanted to seize the Qilin tears in Xiao Jiu's hands?

"Pah!"

Right at this moment, the Core Formation expert's figure suddenly moved. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Li Qinglin, and before Li Qinglin could even react, he slapped him.

It left five bright palm marks on Li Qinglin's face.

"Why? Do I need to give you an explanation? "

The man in black spoke in a hoarse voice.

After being slapped, Li Qinglin was clearly a bit stupefied. After being stupefied, he became angry, and although he was extremely furious in his heart, he could only endure it because the person in front of him who could turn into a Core Formation expert was simply not a match for him.

To take the initiative to attack a Core Formation Stage powerhouse was no different from courting death.

"Senior, that's not what I meant!"

Li Qinglin was slapped and his eyes showed some anger, but he suppressed it with all his might.

"I said that. You actually said I was wrong? From the looks of it, you are very unconvinced! "

The black clothed man slapped Li Qinglin's other face again. This time, both sides of his face had become symmetrical. Both sides of his face had a clear palm mark on them, clearly showing the type with his five fingers.

"I …"

After being slapped again, Li Qinglin didn't dare to say anything anymore. If he were to speak, he would definitely be beaten.

"How dare you not answer my question!"

The black-clothed man extended his leg once more, directly kicking Li Qinglin far away. Seeing this situation, everyone was flabbergasted.

A Core Formation Stage powerhouse actually dared to bully someone like this? This was simply not like an expert. Although everyone was thinking this, no one dared to say it out loud.

This was because everyone knew that if anyone talked too much, they would definitely be the one to suffer in the next moment.

The person in front of him was a Core Formation Stage powerhouse. He was one of the top existences here, even in the eighteen cities of the Nine Prefectures.

However, he didn't know which of the eighteen cities of the Nine Prefectures' Core Formation Stage powerhouse would be so bored to make things difficult for Li Qinglin.

Could it be that this Core Formation Stage powerhouse had taken a fancy to the Qilin tears in Xiao Chen's hands?

Seeing this scene, the corner of Xiao Jiu's mouth curled up, revealing a relaxed expression.

"Li Qinglin, Li Qinglin, look at you! Do you still want the Qilin tears in my hands?"

He was clearly making sarcastic remarks, but at this time, no matter what he said, he couldn't do anything to Xiao Jiu.

He didn't know why he was so unlucky to be targeted by a Core Formation Stage powerhouse. He didn't seem to have offended an existence of this level!

"Hmph …" I want to protect this brat, do you have any objections? "

The black clothed man looked around and spoke in a hoarse voice. Once these words were spoken, everyone lowered their heads in silence. No one dared to reply.

"Old thing, don't call me boy. Should you call me boy?"

Xiao Jiu had a frivolous expression on his face when he heard this. He took a fancy to the man in black and spoke with slight disdain.

When the crowd heard Xiao Jiu speak like this, they felt as if their brains had exploded. What kind of person are you to think that he can't even talk to you like this?

This young master of the Xiao family is probably not a fool. The person in front of him is a Core Formation Stage powerhouse, an existence that can kill you with a single slap.

"Cough, cough …" Alright, then this old man will give you some face and call you Young Master Xiao! "

Contrary to everyone's expectations, the black clothed person let out a dry cough and somewhat awkwardly said. Everyone was stunned for a moment. They had thought that Xiao Jiu would be killed by a Core Formation Stage powerhouse within minutes, but in reality, this was not the case.

This was a Core Formation powerhouse! Why would he listen to Xiao Jiu?

"Listen up, I want to protect Young Master Xiao, do you have any objections?"

The man in black cleared his throat and said. He swapped the brat in his words for Young Master Xiao.

"If there's no objection, then what can we say? What do you mean by that?"

"That's right! If you're strong, you have the final say!"

"Exactly, anything you say sounds good!"

The surrounding clan disciples answered in a scattered manner, their voices carrying a hint of bitterness.

This was the world where strength was respected. No one dared to speak when a Core Formation Stage powerhouse stood in front of them.

However, they also couldn't understand why a Core Formation powerhouse would appear here, and with such respect towards Xiao Jiu.

Could it be that the reason Xiao Jiu was able to kill so many people from the Shi family was because of the support of a Core Formation Stage powerhouse?

Thinking about what happened before, everyone could not help but think this way.

"Hmph …" You all seem to be very unconvinced! "

The black-clothed man coldly snorted as a terrifying pressure erupted from his body. The surrounding people instantly felt a terrifying pressure.

The man in black looked around, and anyone who saw him could feel a frightful chill.

"Li Qinglin, are you really unconvinced!?"

Realizing that no one dared to speak, the man in black felt embarrassed. How could these cowards have no future? They dared not to say a single word in front of him, so much so that he felt that his existence was nil.

Now, he could only use Li Qinglin to brush up on his existence.

Hearing this, Li Qinglin was on the verge of tears. Madan, I didn't say anything. He was looking for trouble!

"Senior, it's not that I'm not convinced!"

Li Qinglin had a swollen face and said with a bitter expression, "Just what benefits did this Core Formation Stage powerhouse receive from that trash, Xiao Jiu? He actually came out and said he wanted to protect Xiao Chen?"

It was fine to protect Xiao Jiu, but he was obviously causing trouble!

"Li Qinglin, you're not a good boy if you're lying!" Although you did not say it in your heart, I know that you are very unconvinced in your heart! "

At this moment, Xiao Jiu stood to the side and calmly said. When Li Qinglin heard this, he felt as if ten thousand mud horses were galloping above his head!

You know? How do you know? This was clearly framing!

"Really?" Li Qinglin, isn't he right? "

The black clothed man looked at Li Qinglin again as he questioned.

"Senior, I sincerely submit to you!"

Li Qinglin was on the verge of tears. There was no need to play tricks on him like this. At this time, he felt his heart collapse, no longer having the demeanor of a powerhouse from before.

"Oh, so he was wrong? How dare you say he's wrong? "

The black clothed man responded and then said. After he finished speaking, his figure flashed and he once again appeared in front of Li Qinglin …
