Lin Yuexin, standing tall in the courtyard, also paused. Was it Chen Pingping?
The Array's energy was exhausted. A group of Hidden Guards, still mending their injuries, charged towards the courtyard once more.
The middle-aged leader sneered. "I am the Dark Guards Leader. By order of the Family Head, I am here to execute the Lin Family traitor, Lin Yuexin."
Lin Yuexin laughed. "Heh heh! To think the main branch has now become the traitor of the Lin Family."
"Lin Yuexin," the Dark Guards Leader strode forward, "out of consideration for your past as a member of the Lin Family, if you surrender, I will ensure you have a whole corpse. Otherwise, your elder sister's fate will be your own."
"An Yucong!" the elder raged. "The Family Head treated you like a blood brother, yet you led the Hidden Guards to betray him, attacking the main branch time and again! It's outrageous! You... you will not die a good death!"
An Yucong remained silent, his expression still icy.
