The deafening music drowned out the sound of something cutting through the air. In the dimly lit bar, no one noticed the deadly glint of cold steel.
But Lin Xiao heard it.
He was walking up the stairs when his steps faltered. Then, without even turning his head, he flicked the Xuantian Needle out.
DING!
The faint sound of metal clashing echoed in the air. Unfortunately, it was too soft. No one heard it, let alone noticed it.
When the Xuantian Needle returned to his hand, Lin Xiao turned and glanced at the noisy dance floor. Of course, he wasn't looking for the assailant; he was looking for Bei Kuang. He had spotted Bei Kuang earlier when he came in, flamboyantly twisting his body on the dance floor.
Just as Lin Xiao's eyes landed on him, Bei Kuang also looked over. Clearly, Bei Kuang had sensed the sneak attack as well. If Lin Xiao could sense it, it went without saying for Bei Kuang. After all, his current cultivation level was far more formidable than Lin Xiao's.
