With his hand tightly clenched around Xiao Fengtou, his eyes locked onto Er'aizhi. That slight movement was only because Zhong Shenxiu hadn't spoken.
"My hand slipped?" Zhong Shenxiu couldn't help but let out a cold snort, sending a chill through everyone present.
They had witnessed the methods of these two little devils; when they unleashed their fury, it was enough to make one’s liver tremble, and it was deadly!
Er'aizhi glanced at Zhong Shenxiu, still oblivious to his predicament, trying to figure out who these two children actually were. Were they little imperial princes?
But even if the Crown Prince had arrived, the family head wouldn't have been this polite. So, what exactly were their identities?
As he pondered, Zhong Shenxiu’s voice rang out again, though not directed at him.
"Robin, did you hear that? He said his hand slipped accidentally!" Zhong Shenxiu’s words were heavily laced with insinuation, which Robin certainly understood.
Robin had been waiting for these exact words; she now knew exactly what to do!
Nibenser watched Robin's expression closely. Seeing the cold light flare in her eyes, he knew Er'aizhi was about to meet disaster. Knowing it, however, he was powerless to intervene. If anyone was to blame, it was Er'aizhi for speaking so carelessly, daring to provoke these two little devils!
Er'aizhi was also a man of considerable power. He distinctly felt the atmosphere suddenly turn oppressive, and a vague sense of unease washed over his heart.
Just then, an invisible force slammed into him. Before he could react to what was happening, his entire body was flung toward the wall!
"Boom!" The sound was deafening, making the entire hall seem to shake.
Looking again, Er'aizhi was embedded in the wall, his body still twitching—clearly not dead yet.
Everyone instinctively gasped. They all knew Robin was about to act and had heightened their vigilance by one hundred and twenty percent, yet they still hadn't seen how Robin struck. This inexplicability was enough to make their scalps crawl!
As everyone stared in astonishment, Robin's cold voice sounded, "My hand slipped accidentally too!"
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat. Was this really about a 'slip of the hand'? No matter how much one’s hand slipped, it couldn't embed a living person in a wall like that!
Though they thought this, not a single one dared to utter a sound, standing stock-still, terrified that Robin might 'accidentally slip' towards them next!
Then, everyone's hearts leaped again, for they saw Robin’s hand move once more.
A sound of "crack, crunch!" followed, as Er'aizhi slowly extracted himself from the wall.
Er'aizhi was covered in dust, his nose seemed crushed, and a large purple mark bloomed on his forehead. Whether it was due to his high tolerance for pain or the wall being made of shoddy materials, the violent impact had only resulted in these superficial injuries!
Right now, besides a dizzy head and some body aches, he hadn't suffered any fatal wounds!
But this would not be his fortune; it would be his doom! Because Robin had only just begun!
Everyone stared wide-eyed as Er'aizhi drifted towards Robin. They had no idea what was coming next, but they knew it wouldn't be pleasant!
All members of the "Stacy Family" possessed wildly arrogant personalities, but this time they were behaving as meekly as grandsons!
Er'aizhi finally stopped, hovering about five meters from Robin, suspended in the air like a balloon.
Everyone held their breath, their heartbeats quickening under the influence of the oppressive atmosphere.
Er'aizhi gradually regained his senses, forcing his eyes open, trying to understand what was happening—why he had slammed into the wall? He hadn't done anything to invite such an attack!
The moment his eyes cracked open just a sliver, he suddenly saw a dark mass hurtling towards him. Before he could react, the mass enveloped his entire body.
"I accidentally slipped again!" Robin’s voice echoed. However, the crowd was so jolted by Er'aizhi’s pig-like howling that nobody paid any attention to what Robin had just said!
Watching the skin on Er'aizhi’s face continuously twist and deform, the onlookers, along with their horror, began to deeply sympathize with him.
Nibenser understood the feeling of excruciating agony best. He couldn't bear to look at Er'aizhi’s pained expression anymore, as it reminded him of the torment he had just endured!
The wails lasted only a few tens of seconds, but that didn't mean the ordeal was over. Robin still gazed at Er'aizhi with icy eyes, like an irreconcilable enemy!
The brief silence didn't mean Robin had let him off; it only meant she was contemplating what to do next.
The silence lasted only another few tens of seconds when a dull thud sounded, followed by Er'aizhi spitting up torrents of blood, as if he were vomiting drunk.
"My hand slipped again!" Robin never failed to add a phrase after each new tactic she employed.
The crowd was speechless now. If not for the terrifying power Robin displayed, they would have dismissed this as a spoiled child throwing a tantrum!
Subsequently, Robin flicked her delicate fingers, and Er'aizhi’s body began to rupture, as if riddled by machine-gun fire, his body convulsing in rhythm!
In the blink of an eye, Er'aizhi was breathing his last. It was clear he wouldn't last much longer before kicking the bucket!
Everyone was stunned, their eyes fixed on the mangled Er'aizhi, their minds completely blank, as if their souls had momentarily left their bodies!
Robin finally grew weary of the game; she was ready for the final 'slip of the hand'!
So, Er'aizhi’s body began to ascend, stopping abruptly just as it was about to touch the ceiling.
Everyone instinctively looked up at Er'aizhi, failing to notice that Robin was slowly extending a small, fair hand, gently clenching it towards Er'aizhi's direction. Instantly, a dull "bang" reverberated.
Er'aizhi’s body seemed to burst asunder, instantly transforming into a rain of blood that sprinkled down. Strangely, however, this blood rain ignited into flames as it fell, evaporating before it even hit the ground.
And just like that, Er'aizhi was utterly sent to the King of Hell!
"My hand slipped," Robin’s impassive voice sounded again, but hearing it this time made the onlookers desperately want to smash their own heads against the wall!
Robin had avenged Niu Niu’s mother. She then retreated back to Zhong Shenxiu’s side, looking as if nothing had happened while observing the crowd. Words failed to describe the terror gripping their hearts; they had never witnessed such a brutal death, it was as if an Asura had descended!
Was this—could this be power attainable by a human?
Everyone's fear of Robin had reached an unimaginable peak!
Perverted, utterly damned perverted! A child like this existing in the world was clearly an enemy of humankind!
Nibenser finally understood the gulf between himself and Robin; it was non-comparable. No wonder he hadn't possessed the slightest ability to resist her!
Understanding aside, Nibenser couldn't help but feel a chill. What he most wanted to know was the extent of Robin’s actual power. He was already a Sword God, yet before her, he seemed like nothing. Had she broken past the realm of Sword God to reach a new tier?
Thinking this, Nibenser’s heart raced faster. He had always believed that Sword God was the ultimate limit for humanity—no matter one's genius, effort, or accumulated years, this limit could never be surpassed!
From ancient times to the present, there was no record of anyone transcending the Sword God limit to reach another mysterious realm! Yet, this little girl before him clearly possessed power far exceeding that of a Sword God, a level that could no longer be defined by those two words!
In that moment, the way Nibenser looked at Robin was as if he were gazing upon a God, a deity only spoken of in legends!
For someone Robin’s age to reach the strength of a "Great Swordsman" would have been enough to shock the world. But who would have thought this little girl had become so monstrous as to far surpass the limit of the "Sword God"?
Nibenser knew very well that Robin had never shown her true strength from start to finish; otherwise, it would have been even more terrifying. He was also self-aware enough to know that forget one of him against Robin—even dozens more of him would still be no match for her!
He was now utterly convinced that Robin alone could slaughter every last member of the "Stacy Family"!
The word "extermination" finally flashed through Nibenser’s mind, causing his body to tremble violently, his face turning ash-white!
Heavens! How did our "Stacy Family" manage to provoke these two little devils?
What Nibenser could do now was not resist, but comply as much as possible with these two little devils. He now clearly understood that these children were not only beyond what the "Stacy Family" could afford to offend, but the entire "Winter Moon Empire" might be ruined because of them!
For a moment, the air was thick with tension. Zhong Shenxiu and Robin remained silent, and these people dared not move an inch, fearing they might become Robin’s next target for annihilation!
"Alright, now let's talk about the debt!" Zhong Shenxiu finally spoke, getting straight to the point.
Then, Zhong Shenxiu produced the I.O.U.s signed by several managers years ago. They bore the unique seal of the "Stacy Family," impossible to fake!
When Nibenser saw the amount owed on the notes, his face instantly turned green. Even selling off the entire "Stacy Family" wouldn't equal that much money!
If they couldn't gather the funds, what fate awaited them?
Just thinking about it sent a shiver down Nibenser’s spine.
"No need to be so tense." Zhong Shenxiu chuckled, "Though, of course, you’d be tense. I know you can't come up with that much money at once. I'm only here to collect a portion this time. See how much you can offer?" Zhong Shenxiu then looked towards Nibenser.
Nibenser knew that while Zhong Shenxiu sounded casual, a wrong answer could lead to disaster! He now had to calculate not only the usable funds within the clan but also figure out the precise manner in which to address Zhong Shenxiu, causing him to fall silent for a moment.
"If you lack funds, you can substitute with other assets, such as real estate, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, or book collections," Zhong Shenxiu suggested helpfully.
"Could you allow us a moment to discuss it?" Nibenser asked cautiously.
"Don't take too long; my time is precious," Zhong Shenxiu agreed, only stipulating that they discuss it right there and that no one leave.
About fifteen minutes passed before Nibenser and the others finally reached a consensus! The agreement was to give Zhong Shenxiu four trillion Diamond Coins, along with a considerable amount of physical assets like real estate and jewels!
Zhong Shenxiu didn't give an immediate response, instead asking Nibenser to bring forth the specified money, deeds, and jewels first.
Nibenser no longer feared Zhong Shenxiu accepting these items. What he desperately wanted now was for Zhong Shenxiu and Robin to take the items and leave quickly. Hearing Zhong Shenxiu's request, he hastily ordered his subordinates to comply.
The "Stacy Family" displayed high efficiency. In a short time, the entire living room was filled with items.
Nibenser directed his subordinates to work quickly while simultaneously observing Zhong Shenxiu’s expression. Seeing Zhong Shenxiu's consistently calm and unmoved demeanor, his heart sank like a stone!
No matter how valuable these items were, they were worthless compared to life itself, and more importantly, Nibenser feared total annihilation of their clan. Thus, even though giving these treasures away to Zhong Shenxiu and Robin pained him, he had no choice!
The hall was soon stacked so high that space was running out. Just as Nibenser was about to ask Zhong Shenxiu whether to move the goods elsewhere or accept the current pile, the unexpected happened: Robin simply waved her small hand, and these treasures, which had just been piled up like small mountains, vanished into thin air!
Not only was he stunned, but everyone who witnessed the event froze in place!
This was too monstrous; did they still want people to live? If this continued, the entire "Stacy Family" would be emptied out!
What were they to do now!
As he struggled with this predicament, an elder cautiously shuffled up to him and whispered something so softly it could barely be heard.
Upon hearing it, Nibenser's eyes lit up; the problem that had been troubling him was suddenly resolved.
In truth, their little maneuvers could not escape Zhong Shenxiu's notice; he had heard everything they discussed clearly.
Though aware they were trying to play a trick, Zhong Shenxiu was not angered; instead, he became even more excited than they were!
What was going on?
Nibenser walked over, organized his thoughts slightly, and finally articulated the decision he had just reached.
He knew this was the only chance the "Stacy Family" had to avert this crisis!
