YM778.TV 341 Chapter 341
The slash didn\'t just shatter the palm attack, it went straight through it to hit Elder Yue in the chest, creating a streak of blood on his chest.
When Elder Yue took this blow, he was sent flying into the distance, skipping like a stone on water before skidding to a stop.
The Lin Family ancestor was standing firmly in front of Lin Ao with his hand up surrounded in sword law.
He hadn\'t even used a weapon and the Lin Family ancestor was already this strong, just what kind of monster was he?
The elder from the Liao Family had his eyes wide open since he had been focused on the Lin Family ancestor the entire time, but he hadn\'t been able to see him move at all.
It had to be known that this elder from the Liao Family was in the Child Soul Realm, far beyond the Embryo Soul Realm and even then he still wasn\'t able to see the movements of the Lin Family ancestor. Just how powerful was the Lin Family ancestor?
Even Lin Fan had his guesses confirmed by this.
There was no way this old ancestor was someone from the lower realm, he was clearly hiding his cultivation and staying here for some reason, but just what was that reason?
Still, if the Lin Family ancestor didn\'t want to talk about it, there was nothing that Lin Fan could do.
He just hoped that the Lin Family ancestor had the same goals as him, otherwise that would be troublesome.
The Lin Family ancestor looked down at Elder Yue who was on the ground and said, "This is still my territory, I think you should remember that. This might be the business of your Yue Family, but if you touch my people, I won\'t hold back."
Then he turned to the elder from the Liao Family and said, "Take them and leave."
Liao Ping naturally had something to say about this since he had never been treated like this by lower realm trash like this, but the elder from the Liao Family immediately appeared behind him and covered his mouth to stop him from talking. Then he cupped his hands and gave a slight bow to the Lin Family ancestor before taking everyone away. That naturally included Yue Qingrou and Lin Yue.
Once they were all gone, there was a heavy feeling that hung in the air.
The Lin Family had suffered a great loss from this.
While there was internal struggle in the Lin Family, what made them a family was that they stuck with each other in the end, but now they had let two of their members be taken like this. It was without a doubt a slap to the face of the Lin Family.
Lin Fan was especially angry since those two were his two closest relatives.
Lin Fan still didn\'t feel that same way towards the Lin Family that his father did, but this was different since these two were part of the new family that he had found in this world. This was his precious family and they had been taken just like this!
At this, Lin Fan couldn\'t help glaring at the Lin Family ancestor who had stopped him the entire time.
The Lin Family ancestor could naturally see this and he gave a bitter laugh deep down.
All these different things, they were all cutting into his own plans and making it hard for him…
But he had no other choice since he was already committed and this was his family after all.
The Lin Family ancestor turned to the six elders standing there and said, "All of you can go and rest up. Everyone hiding in the manor will help with the clean up."
After saying this, he turned to Lin Fan and said, "Xiao Fan, you and Ao will come with me. We\'ll talk in the inner room."
Without waiting for anyone to respond, the Lin Family ancestor began walking into the Lin Manor.
Everyone clearly had more they wanted to say, but this was the Lin Family after all. In the Lin Family, their ancestor had the final word, so they all went to follow his orders.
The six elders were actually all suffering from quite heavy internal injuries, so what they needed the most was to rest right now. The only reason they hadn\'t gone earlier was because of the face of the family.
There were quite a few people who were outside looking in on the Lin Family…
As for Lin Fan, he followed along with the Lin Family ancestor\'s orders because he knew that this was the only way he would get the information that he wanted.
So after the Lin Family ancestor walked away, Lin Fan came over to help his father up before following the Lin Family ancestor into the manor.
They continued in until they reached a room that was in the very depths of the Lin Manor, a room that was perfect for secluded cultivation. This was the room that the Lin Family ancestor spent most of his time in.
In that room, there was only a simple mat on the ground, but someone had brought in a table before they had arrived since they knew that the Lin Family ancestor was using this room to hold a meeting.
The Lin Family ancestor took one of the seats before pointing for Lin Fan and Lin Ao to sit down.
After sitting down, there was a period of silence as the Lin Family ancestor looked over them, but then he suddenly said, "Ao, are you confident in getting them back?"
Lin Ao had been in a daze the entire time, but hearing this voice, he looked up at the Lin Family ancestor. After staring at him in a daze for a bit, he gave a firm nod.
The Lin Family ancestor gave a nod back to him before saying, "Alright, you can go and get ready then."
Lin Ao didn\'t waste any time as he got out of his chair and headed out, leaving only Lin Fan and the Lin Family ancestor in the room.
Once he was gone, Lin Fan was about to speak, but the Lin Family ancestor raised his hand first to stop him as he said, "First, let me speak."
After a pause, he said with a sigh, "I know that you\'re feeling annoyed that I stopped you, but there\'s a reason for that."
Lin Fan just gave a soft snort in response to this.
The Lin Family ancestor ignored him and asked, "Even if you were strong enough to stop him, would that have been the right choice?"
Lin Fan wanted to argue back, but then he saw the way the Lin Family ancestor looked at him and he swallowed his words, sitting back down in daze.
The Lin Family ancestor nodded when he saw this, this was the reaction that he had wanted.
He paused for a bit to let Lin Fan mull it over before continuing, "You\'re his son, if you were to help him like that…"
Once again, he left it open for Lin Fan to think it over, but with how clear he had been, there wasn\'t much else he needed to say.
Lin Fan eventually gave up and let out a sigh as he knew that the Lin Family ancestor was right. If he had interfered earlier, he would have caused cultivation deviation for Lin Ao.
It wasn\'t just talent that was important for cultivation, it also depended on one\'s mentality.
Lin Ao was a man after all and if he had to rely on his son to protect his family, what kind of a man would he be?
While his family would have been safe, it would have crushed his spirit and created a heart demon for him, negatively impacting his future cultivation.
He was already in the peak Platinum Realm at his age, which was enough to prove his talent. If he were given a bit more time, he would definitely be able to break through to the Legendary Realm and take back everything that was his.
But if Lin Fan were to crush his spirit before then, creating a heart demon for him, he would never be able to break through for the rest of his life.
So in the end, the Lin Family ancestor\'s actions had been correct even if Lin Fan couldn\'t accept the results.
The Lin Family ancestor saw this and knew that he was past the hard part, so now there was only one thing to do.
He knew that it was impossible for Lin Fan to stay in this lower realm and the fact that he had already broken through meant that he would be heading to the upper realm soon. This was something that the Lin Family ancestor approved of since he knew that Lin Fan would need that room to grow.
But that didn\'t mean that he would just let Lin Fan go off without ensuring some basic form of safety for him.
While the upper realm was filled with opportunities, it was also filled with danger. If he didn\'t go to the right place, he might not even know how he died.
So the Lin Family ancestor asked, "When are you planning on going to the upper realm?"
Lin Fan thought about it for a bit before saying, "I\'m not sure yet."
He had received a mission from the system, but he hadn\'t had time to look over it yet. He just knew that it was related to the upper realm since he saw those two words in the mission.
But there was something else more important to him first.
Lin Fan looked right at the Lin Family ancestor and asked, "Who were those people that came today?"
