Top-Tier Superpower Student-Chapter 665 - 637 That Person
Mengting and the others were temporarily safe, and this time, Lin Tian could let loose and go on a killing spree.
The more ruthlessly Lin Tian killed, the more he could deter the Li Family's people. In this way, Mengting and the others would be even safer.

No one on the field could withstand Lin Tian. Drawing the Godslayer Sword, Lin Tian struck in all directions, and this time, he was truly unstoppable.
Lin Tian was simply too fierce, causing both Li Xiangqian and Li Xiangshang to break out in cold sweat.
Li Xiangqian quickly signaled to a person, whispering a few instructions in his ear.
The person hurried off, and in no time, four snipers were in position, all aiming to take down Lin Tian.
In the chaos, there was a slight chance of injuring their own people, but at this point, he couldn't care less. They had to kill Lin Tian—if open confrontation wouldn't work, they'd play dirty.
The four snipers fired simultaneously, four bullets speeding towards Lin Tian.
Lin Tian sensed this murderous intent and let out a cold laugh. With his current skills, would he be afraid of four sniper rifles?
He easily dodged the four bullets and turned to Wang Ying, shouting,
"There are snipers nearby, take them out."
Weapon in hand, Wang Ying charged out, and in less than two minutes, all four snipers were dead.
Beside them, Li Xiangqian gritted his teeth with fury and organized dozens of crossbowmen to shoot at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian dodged a volley of crossbow arrows before shouting to Fang Shaoxiong,
"Run them down."
Twelve chariots charged forth, the crossbow arrows unable to pierce the iron cladding of the chariots. In the end, most crossbowmen were crushed by the chariots, and the rest scattered in all directions.
This time, even Li Xiangshang was startled. He suggested, "Lin Tian is too strong, perhaps it's time for 'that person' to make a move!"
"Wait a bit longer, don't worry. First, let's deplete his strength. We still have a hostage in our hands."
The battle continued fiercely, each showcasing their divine might, with casualties every moment, each moment steeped in bloodshed.
Lin Tian and his group relied on their ferocity, while the Li Family had numbers on their side.
After a full ten minutes or more, the battle raged on. However, Lin Tian unexpectedly spotted someone.
This person was from the Li Family's direct lineage; his name was Li Yuan.
Li Yuan, Li Xiangshang's son, was of the Li Family's direct lineage. Since Li Xiangqian's son was killed by Lin Tian, Li Xiangshang's status had subtly risen by a notch, possibly becoming the successor to the Family Head.
This wasn't because Li Yuan was outstanding, but rather because the Li Family was running out of people.
Li Xiangqian's son had been killed by Lin Tian, and Li Xiangjin had another son named Li Tian. However, Li Xiangqian didn't want to have any more dealings with the Li Family, so he took his son Li Tian to the army, preventing him from any further contact with the Li Family.
Therefore, now, only Li Yuan was left, so he was very likely to become the future Family Head of the Li Family.
Li Yuan was dressed very covertly, with a hat covering his head, hiding in a dark spot, commanding the Assassins' attacks.
Even so, Lin Tian still found him.
Observing closely, Lin Tian saw that there were quite a few Assassins lurking beside Li Yuan.
Lin Tian called over Huo Shaotian and Jian Cangsheng and instructed them to find a few experts to accompany him and capture Li Yuan.
If Lin Tian captured Li Yuan, then the matter would be settled.
Jian Cangsheng and Huo Shaotian quickly selected ten experts to follow Lin Tian and launch an attack on Li Yuan.
Initially, Li Xiangshang, who was watching the battle, didn't notice Lin Tian's intention, not believing that Lin Tian could recognize Li Yuan.
But gradually, Li Xiangshang realized Lin Tian's intention, but by then it was too late.
"Yuan, run, run, Lin Tian is coming...!"
He yelled loudly, and Li Yuan also spotted Lin Tian, aghast, while retreating, he ordered the assassins beside him to block Lin Tian.
Lin Tian wielded the Godslayer Sword, cutting a bloody path. Huo Shaotian and Jian Cangsheng quickly supported from both sides, fending off the assassins who were attacking him.
The Godslayer Sword stained with blood, all who stood in the way were killed. Li Yuan was right before him, and Lin Tian activated the Flight Technique, easily capturing Li Yuan.
"Everyone, stop!"
He roared, placing the Godslayer Sword across Li Yuan's neck.
"Stop, stop, quickly... quickly stop...!"
Li Xiangshang trembled as he shouted.
He had planned everything meticulously, never expecting that his son would be captured by Lin Tian.
A moment of carelessness, such a moment of carelessness!
Li Xiangqian's son was killed by Lin Tian's hands, and Li Xiangshang was afraid. He knew of Lin Tian's methods and was truly afraid his own son would also die at Lin Tian's hands.
Not only was Li Xiangshang stunned, but Li Xiangqian was also dumbfounded. Although he didn't have much affection for Li Yuan, now the Li Family only had Li Yuan and Li Tian left. Li Tian was never going to inherit the position of Family Head. If Li Yuan were to die as well, the Li Family would truly be left without a successor.
All stopped their fighting, automatically retreating to the sides.
Now, the situation had dramatically reversed. The Li Family had He Qianqian and others as hostages, while Lin Tian had Li Yuan as a hostage.
It was a stalemate.
Now the Li Family couldn't threaten Lin Tian anymore.
Both sides had hostages, and the hostages were extremely important. No one could fight, so they had to talk!
Li Xiangshang bellowed, "Lin Tian, if you release my son, I'll release these people."
"Do you think I'm stupid!" Lin Tian laughed, "You release my people first. After they've left, then I'll release your son."
"Lin Tian, do you think I'm dumb!"
Li Xiangqian said, "So, we'll release our hostages at the same time, fair and square."
"No way!" Lin Tian refused, "You have several of my people in your hands, and I only have one of yours. What if you take advantage of the chaos to capture some of my people again? What will I do then?"
"Hmph!"
Li Xiangqian snapped, "I always keep my word when I speak. As the Family Head of the Li Family, would I go back on my words with you?"
"Just now, who said that the Li Family people only care about results, not the process? You even managed to kidnap my family members. In my eyes, what credibility do you have left?"
As he said these words, Li Xiangqian and Li Xiangshang were both red-faced with embarrassment and shame.
Calm and composed, he ran the Godslayer Sword around Li Yuan's neck, saying, "Quickly release the people, otherwise, I might just do something regrettable."
The chill of the Godslayer Sword's edge sent a shiver down Li Yuan's spine; he was trembling with fear.
"Dad, Uncle, please save me, save me...!"
Li Xiangshang and Li Xiangqian both shuddered at once, especially Li Xiangshang. He understood Lin Tian's methods all too well. Li Yuan was his only son, and if he were to be killed, Li Xiangshang would be left without an heir.
Li Xiangqian was also very worried. If Li Yuan were to die, the Li Family would be left without a successor.
Li Xiangshang suggested, "Big… Big brother, why don't we... ask that person to take action!"
Li Xiangqian looked grave. He was extremely reluctant to ask that person for help, but under these circumstances, he had no other choice.
"Sigh, after all is said and done, we were still careless. Now, we have no choice but to ask him to take action!"
