They were about to assassinate him immediately!

When they heard this order, many Wang family assassins took a deep breath, and their eyes narrowed while emitting a dazzling cold light!

In fact, this was not the best time to assassinate!

Lin Xuan was surrounded by countless people from the Lin family. If the old antiques closest to him were alarmed, none of them would be able to succeed.

However, so what? They were the top assassins of the Wang family! Fighting the strong as the weak and killing others without commotion were their specialty!

Wang Gankun was confident that if he was given sufficient time to prepare, he could even assassinate the old antiques of the Lin family!

Moreover, they had even experienced an even more dangerous mission! The surrounding Lin family members were still in seclusion, immersed in their cultivation. Their target was only a baby that could die at any moment! What was so difficult about it?!

More than ten Wang family assassins hid their auras to the limit. Like smoke floating past, they slowly surrounded Lin Xuan from all directions…

…

The many assassins of the Wang family surrounded him like smoke, not attracting anyone’s attention.

They were not anxious. They turned into smoke and allowed the breeze to blow forward without revealing any fluctuation.

As for the surrounding Lin family members, they were all immersed in cultivation seclusion.

Even the many old antiques of the Lin family did not sense the arrival of these assassins!

If the old antiques observed carefully, they would definitely have a chance to sense something amiss.

However, who would have thought that someone would dare to carry out an assassination mission under the watch of so many old antiques?

Therefore, no one noticed. They were all cultivating! Only the target of the assassination, Lin Xuan, could feel the atmosphere.

What was going on? Why did he feel a gaze on him as soon as he returned to the Lin family? Lin Xuan thought to himself in confusion.

Previously, he had thought that someone from the Lin family had looked over. Now, it seemed that it was not the case.

All the people in the Lin family should be engrossed in cultivation…

As he thought this, Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. A dense divine light opened and closed as the dual-pupils activated, sweeping towards a place.

In the next moment, Lin Xuan’s entire body suddenly stiffened! There was someone over there! Moreover, it was not someone from the Lin family!

The divine light of Lin Xuan’s dual-pupils shone brightly and he quickly looked in all directions!

Immediately, more than ten blurry figures appeared in the void!

They turned into smoke and did not alarm anyone.

With the help of the breeze and his own suction force, they were slowly surrounding him!

There were even a few figures who had already infiltrated the range of only a hundred meters from him!! Lin Xuan’s expression was solemn.

Just as he was thinking of a countermeasure, he saw the dozens of smoke suddenly increase their speed and brazenly charge at him!

…

A hundred meters away! To a top assassin like Wang Gankun, it was only a blink of an eye. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was close!

Almost the moment he arrived a hundred meters away from Lin Xuan, all the Wang family assassins chose to suddenly attack and quickly advance!

Under the starry sky, at the end of the brilliant galaxy.

More than ten wisps of smoke cleverly bypassed dozens of figures under the cover of the darkness and brazenly rushed towards the swaddled baby! They succeeded!!

The leader, Wang Gankun, held a thin black sword in his hand, his eyes cold and ruthless.

His gaze was sharp, as if he had already seen the scene of the longsword piercing through Lin Xuan!

However, just as Wang Gankun and many assassins were about to launch their final attack…

Silver starlight suddenly was pulled down from the flower of stars above and landed in front of them!

Wang Gankun and the others were stunned for a moment before sneering in disdain. The phenomenon was protecting its master?

However, this was just the phenomenon of a small baby, so what if he was a genius!

In the end, Lin Xuan was only a small baby!

Wang Gankun sneered and stretched out his hand, wanting to crush the starlight in front of him.

However, what these people from the Wang family did not know was that the phenomena caused by Lin Xuan’s achievements were far from what a baby could achieve!

The moment Wang Gankun touched the starlight, a black vortex appeared in front of all the assassins!

The appearance of these vortexes was too sudden. Even the many assassins reacted immediately after being stunned.

However, if they wanted to dodge, how could they?

In the vortex, it was as if ancient ferocious beasts stretched out their claws, and there was also a resplendent eye!

It had dual-pupils! As soon as it appeared, it carried a supreme pressure.

What was this?! Many Wang family assassins wanted to dodge, but unfortunately, how could they move faster than a gaze?

Endless divine light erupted. Between the dual-pupils, it was as if stars had shattered and the world had just been created!

Beams of resplendent light instantly struck the Wang family’s assassins!

The Wang family’s assassins seemed to have arrived in a strange space.

In this space, all distance was stretched extremely far!

The baby seemed so close, but no matter how quickly they advanced, no matter how they flew, they could not reach him.

This baby, Lin Xuan, was at the other side of the distant stars!

So near, yet so far!

However, this extremely strange feeling only lasted for an instant before it was resolved by Wang Gankun and the others in less than a millionth of a second!

However, this period of time was enough for Lin Xuan!

In the next moment, endless devouring power erupted crazily in the huge vortex!

Many ancient Taotie condensed from dense black fog and suddenly appeared beside these assassins!

The eyes of these ancient Taotie were actually filled with those strange and ferocious dual-pupils!

Roar! Roar!

They opened their mouths and roared without a sound.

Then, they bit down hard on these assassins!

With the power of the phenomenon, Lin Xuan successfully froze these assassins in place for half a second!

Not only did it freeze them on the spot, under the illumination of the galaxy stars, the devouring power erupted.

The many Wang family assassins who had originally transformed into green wind were instantly removed from their disguises and exposed to the world!

Many of the Wang family assassins were stunned, and then their expressions suddenly became extremely unsightly!!

What? This baby’s phenomenon could actually pull them out of their disguise?!

In fact, the reason why Lin Xuan could freeze all these assassins of the Wang family on the spot for half a second was mainly because of the power emitted by the “first achievement” phenomenon.

Normally, Lin Xuan was only a baby and was not the match of Wang Gankun and the other top experts of the Wang family.

However, Wang Gankun and the others were very unlucky. Their assassination happened to coincide with the phenomenon that Lin Xuan had awakened.

Moreover, they had mistakenly thought that this was their best opportunity.

The phenomenon did not come from the heavens, but from Lin Xuan himself.

Therefore, if the host encountered danger when the phenomenon erupted, it would naturally protect the host.

It could only be said that these Wang family assassins picked the wrong time.. If they came to assassinate Lin Xuan during normal times, without the first achievement phenomenon, perhaps there was really a chance of success.
