Rise of the Otherworld.

Faced with the other party's tough and unyielding attitude, Lin Yu's face darkened. He stared at the leader with anger and determination. The disciples behind him tightened their grip on their weapons. The sound of metal rubbing against each other was particularly harsh in the tense atmosphere, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"We have already made it clear that we have no intention of becoming your enemy, so why are you being so aggressive!" Lin Yu said loudly, with a hint of anger in his voice. His voice echoed in the empty space, as if issuing a final warning to the other party.

The leader sneered, "Hmph, there is no point in saying more. Don't even think about leaving easily today!" His eyes were full of greed and ferocity, as if he had already regarded Lin Yu and others as something in his pocket.

As the two sides reached a stalemate, Lin Yu's brain raced, thinking of a countermeasure. He knew clearly that in their current state, if they really clashed with the other side, it would be difficult to escape unscathed. They had just experienced the life-and-death test in the secret room, and everyone was injured, and their spiritual power had not yet fully recovered.

"Everyone, don't be impulsive." Lin Yu turned around and said to the disciples. His voice was low and powerful, trying to calm everyone's emotions. His eyes swept over each disciple, full of comfort and determination.

However, the other party thought they were afraid and became even more arrogant.

"What? Are you scared? It's still not too late to beg for mercy!" One of them laughed, with a smug smile on his face and the weapon in his hand waving loudly.

A young and energetic disciple couldn't help but said, "Master, fight them!" His voice was full of anger and unwillingness, and he wanted to rush up and fight with the other party immediately.

Lin Yu glared at the disciple, "Calm down!" His voice was stern and urgent, "Impulsiveness will only put us in a more dangerous situation."

At this time, Xiaoyaozi slowly stood up and walked to Lin Yu's side. His face was still pale, but his eyes had regained some of their former depth. "Master, why don't we talk to them first and see if there is any misunderstanding." His voice was calm and steady, trying to find a glimmer of hope for this tense situation.

Lin Yu nodded slightly and looked at the leader again. He tried to keep his tone calm, "We are really just passing by. This ruins is so big, can't it accommodate us? We are all practitioners, why do we have to force each other so hard?"

"Don't try to play tricks on us. Everything here belongs to us. You are the intruders!" The other party still refused to give in. His voice became louder and louder, full of arrogance and dominance.

Lin Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He knew that he had to remain calm at this moment and not be overwhelmed by the other party's provocation. "So what do you want?" There was a hint of helplessness and determination in his voice.

"Leave behind all the treasures on you and get out!" The leader opened his mouth loudly, his eyes sweeping over Lin Yu and the others, as if estimating the value of the treasures on them.

Lin Yu's face became even uglier. These treasures were obtained by them after going through untold hardships. How could they be easily handed over to these unreasonable people? "Don't go too far!" Lin Yu said with gritted teeth.

The disciples also echoed, "That's right, it's not that easy to steal our treasures!"

The atmosphere between the two sides became increasingly tense, as if a spark could detonate the whole situation.

At that moment, an old man stepped out from the crowd, his gaze deep and sharp. "Young man, why are you so stubborn? If you hand over some of your treasures, we'll let you go."

Will Lin Yu and others compromise? How will this conflict end?
