From the moment Lin Xiao entered, the lives of everyone in this banquet hall were no longer their own.
Today, these people were celebrating the downfall of his Lin family.
Not a single one could be left alive.
"So, let's play a game." As Lin Xiao spoke, he waved his hand and opened the coffin.
A game?
Hearing the word "game," Zhou Yuanhe felt no relief. In fact, for him, the word "game" sounded even more terrifying.
Wasn't this so-called game just toying with his life?
The entire banquet hall fell silent, with no sound other than Lin Xiao's movements.
"It looks quite decent in here. I imagine you'll be quite comfortable living in it later," Lin Xiao said, patting the coffin and putting down his gun.
Whether the gun was in his hand or not made no difference. To Zhou Yuanhe, Lin Xiao himself was now more formidable than any gun.
The entire Zhou family… all the core members of the three major families were here!
"..."
Zhou Yuanhe dared not speak.
"Actually, this game is very simple." Lin Xiao glanced at the people in the hall. "Any one of you, as long as you bite off a piece of flesh from him, can walk out of here safely."
"!!"
Zhou Yuanhe trembled, staring intently at Lin Xiao. "You..."
"The rules are simple: from now until he dies. After he dies, it'll count for nothing. Only by biting off a piece of flesh to keep him alive can you save yourselves," Lin Xiao added, essentially imposing a condition on the game.
"You're going too far! This is Shashi! If I die, you won't live either!" Zhou Yuanhe, his face ashen, heard this, pulled out his phone, and started dialing rapidly while shouting. His hand holding the phone trembled; it seemed to be his last resort.
"Exactly!"
"This is Shashi! No matter how capable you are, how can you possibly get out of here?"
"Let's go! Kill him!"
The members of the other two families also knew that this was a game designed to toy with them, and whether they could leave alive remained unknown.
The banquet hall plunged into chaos once more. Their shouts naturally spurred some to action. By sheer numbers, they seemed to have the advantage… indeed, some were already preparing to move.
But just then, the patriarchs of the two families who had just spoken seemed to feel something behind them and instinctively turned around.
Ye Chen and his companions had appeared behind them.
Then, before they could utter a word, the glinting tips of swords pierced their chests, blood flowing down the blades and from their wounds.
"Cough... cough..."
These were their last sounds in the mortal world.
Once again, the banquet hall fell silent, but this time, they were too terrified to make a sound.
Some gazes turned towards Zhou Yuanhe, seemingly contemplating where would be best to bite next.
"Now, I presume everyone is ready to start the game?" Lin Xiao surveyed the room.
