Meanwhile, in the mansion, Lin Xuan Qi pulled back his arm and waited.

Yuan Kai's body knelt before him, helpless with his hands down by his side, unable to lift a finger.

The head was growing back slowly.

Flesh and veins covered the fractured skull of Yuan Kai, and the skin on Yuan Kai's head grew back.

"Really? Again?" Lin Xuan Qi mumbled to himself and threw his fist at Yuan Kai's head.

Splatter.

His knuckles smashed into Yuan Kai's head and blew Yuan Kai's head to smithereens.

This was what? The fifth or sixth time?

Lin Xuan Qi had lost count of how many times Yuan Kai's head had regenerated.

It was definitely an eye opener for him as to how the healing attributes were for a high-level cultivator.

Yuan Kai was desperately trying to use his Spirit Consciousness to get into Lin Xuan Qi's mind, but it was hopelessly impossible for him.

All the attempts were blocked by the system's gift to Lin Xuan Qi.

Lin Xuan Qi pulled back his arm again and waited one last time for Yuan Kai's head to regenerate.

The smell of the blood from Yuan Kai filled the air and Lin Xuan Qi could feel the uneasy feeling from the warmth and stickiness of the blood on his fist.

And after a few moments of waiting, nothing happened.

Finally, Yuan Kai's head stopped regenerating and his body dropped onto the ground.

"God damn it! My arm is aching from all the smashing." Lin Xuan Qi cursed and swung his arm, trying to stretch his muscles.

He glanced down at Yuan Kai's body and gave it a kick.

Good riddance, Lin Xuan Qi thought.

That's what you get for intruding into my home and trying to kill me.

Lin Xuan Qi wasn't in the mood anymore to patronize whoever it was that intruded into his home again, especially after his encounter with Zhao Jia Rui.

And with every encounter inside the mansion, he was now getting more confident with the invincibility gifted by the system.

Maybe even when the sect leader of Qing Feng Sect came here, he would also be able to deal with him, Lin Xuan Qi thought.

"No. I mustn't think like this." He quickly stopped himself.

There would be days of reckoning if he was cocky.

He couldn't hide inside the mansion forever.

And it would be an issue for him if he made so many enemies that he couldn't leave the mansion.

There was business to take care of outside the mansion like his soap business.

"Master Lin!" Liu Shi Shi's voice shouted from behind him.

She drew out her belt sword and ran towards him.

When she saw that it was a body of a man, dressed in a woman's dress, she glanced at Lin Xuan Qi with a perturbed look.

"Are you alright?" She threw all the questions out of her mind when she saw the blood on Lin Xuan Qi's clothes and fist.

"I'm fine.

"This rebel somehow managed to get through the walls, and I was able to stop him.

"He must have disguised himself as a woman to get through the soldiers at the gate."

Lin Xuan Qi shrugged and cooked up a reason.

"Let me check." Liu Shi Shi got close to him and checked on his body.

She inspected him carefully, fearful of missing any wounds that might be fatal for him.

Using her hands, she patted on his body, covering every inch, making sure that he was alright.

"It's fine, I'm not injured in any way." Lin Xuan Qi tried to stop her.

But Liu Shi Shi glanced at him, held onto his hands with hers and said, "Please don't make me worried like this again."

Without warning, she held his hands against her chest.

Thump.

Her heart thumped loudly, and the vibrations from her chest transmitted through her flesh onto his palm.

It was thumping fast and erratically.

"Calm down. I'm alright." Lin Xuan Qi didn't know how to make it better for her.

He tried to hold her into his body, but it made it worse.

Her heart thumped even faster.

"Master Lin." One of the guards' voices boomed in the air.

"What's the matter?" Lin Xuan Qi quickly let go of Liu Shi Shi and turned around to the guard.

The guard was also surprised when he saw the body lying on the ground.

"What happened?" He drew out his sword and glanced around.

"It was an intruder that got through the lot of you." Liu Shi Shi wasn't too pleased and pointed at the guard.

"We... I'm sorry. We shall make sure that it wouldn't happen again." The guard lowered his head and said.

Liu Shi Shi stared at the guard, nodded her head and said, "Gather everyone for a briefing after this."

It was her responsibility after all, and she didn't want to mess it up for Lin Xuan Qi.

"I'm afraid we might not be able to."

"What do you mean by that?"

The guard pointed in the direction of the gate and said, "There are men dressed in armor outside waiting for you."

"Waiting for me?" Lin Xuan Qi pointed at his nose and asked.

"Yes, Master Lin." The guard replied.

Lin Xuan Qi nodded and walked towards the gate with Liu Shi Shi.

He held onto her hand and rubbed her palm with his fingers, trying to calm her down.

Whether it was effective, he didn't know.

All he knew was that Liu Shi Shi clenched onto his hand tighter.

"Master Lin, sorry we are late.

"Our master instructed us to protect you here at the mansion.

"And the factories and retail store have already been secured with our men.

"Master Sima Long asked if you want to, you can come over to the Sima Family Mansion to stay there until everything is over."

Lin Xuan Qi glanced and saw that there were around a hundred men in full armor standing at the perimeter of the mansion wall.

He was glad that Sima Long had the mind to think of him in this time of trouble.

Sima Long was indeed a worthy partner to trust in.
