Lu Ze looked dazedly at Lin Ling and was speechless.
Elder Lin was once a sage?
What kind of joke was this?
He thought of Elder Lin's gentle smile, and his mouth spasmed.
He couldn't tell at all!
Lin Ling looked at Lu Ze's dazed face and felt happy. She grinned and said proudly, "My great grandpa was once the Spirit Rhino Saint. He conquered a quarter of the human race's territory!"
Lu Ze was taken aback when he heard that.
Of course, he knew about Spirit Rhino Saint. It was said that Spirit Rhino Saint had a pair of Spirit Rhino God Eyes that could see through everything. His combat power was extremely strong and even killed cosmic system states.
However, Spirit Rhino Saint should have left the Milky Way Galaxy to train more than 600 years ago. A few years later, he returned with heavy injuries and died not long after.
He said in disbelief, "I've read a lot. Don't try to trick me! Didn't Spirit Rhino Saint die in battle? "
Lin Ling looked down. "My great grandpa pretty much died in battle too, right? He was heavily injured at that time and his body has been withering. His power has dropped to core martial state. "
Lin Ling felt sad.
Lu Ze looked at Lin Ling in disbelief.
This guy said it as though it was the truth.
Just what kind of injury could make a cosmic system state with that level of combat power drop to the core martial state??
Lu Ze still couldn't accept it. He asked again, "Isn't Elder Lin your great grandpa? Sage has lived for at least a thousand years. How can he only be your great grandpa? "
Elder Lin was Lin Ling's great-grandfather, and they were only separated by three generations. No matter how he thought about it, it didn't seem possible.
Lin Ling rolled her eyes at Lu Ze. "Don't you know that beings above the planetary state will have their fertility greatly reduced? It's very common for planetary states to only have children a few hundred years old, much less cosmic system states. "
Lu Ze: "…"
There was such a thing?
'So planetary states and above have reproductive difficulties?'
It was the first time Lu Ze had heard of such a thing.
"If that's the case, why is Elder Lin in the Telun System? And you're working there? "
If he really was the Spirit Consonance Saint, why would he be in an insignificant galaxy like Telun?
This completely shattered Lu Ze's worldview. Even if Spirit Rhinoceros Saint was heavily injured, with his contributions, he shouldn't have been in such a state, right?
Lu Ze's question made Lin Ling's body tremble, and he fell silent.
Lu Ze looked at Lin Ling with some confusion. He didn't know why she would have such a reaction.
Lin Ling leaned on the sofa and looked at Lu Ze with a complicated expression. Then, she looked down at the cup on the coffee table as if there was something interesting on it.
Her eyes flashed as she continued, "Actually, my family isn't in the Telun System. I left home with my great-grandfather when I was very young and lived in the Telun System."
Lu Ze was dazed. "Why?"
'Did she leave home when she was young?'
'Was she that strong?'
Lin Ling's body trembled. She bit her lips and fell silent.
Moments later, she took a deep breath and said plainly, "My family is a military family. My father and mother are both high-ranking officials of the Federal Army. 14 years ago, the Blade Demons started a large-scale war at the border. Because the war started too suddenly, there was a gap in the border defense line. In the end, the Blade Demons' fleet attacked the defense line, so my father led the fleet to stop them."
"At that time, my mother was surrounded by Blade Demons in another region …"
Lin Ling clenched her fists, and her body trembled. She bit her lips so hard that a sliver of blood came out. The blood slid across her snow-white chin, adding a sliver of beauty to her heroic spirit.
"He could've gone to save her! If he went, he would've definitely been able to save my mother! "
"However, in the end, he chose to defend the defense line and didn't go to save my mother."
Lin Ling's voice was trembling. Her eyes were red, but she didn't cry.
Lu Ze listened to Lin Ling in silence. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
According to Lin Ling, if her father gave up the defense line to save her mother, then the Blade Demons' fleet would've entered the Federation. At that time, at least a portion of the border planets would've been destroyed.
However, if he didn't give up the defense line, then her mother would've been surrounded again …
This was a multiple-choice question with no solution.
Lu Ze thought about it carefully. If it was him, what would he have done?
After thinking for a long time, he chose to give up.
All unsolvable problems were because he wasn't strong enough.
As long as he was strong enough, whether it was the defense line or saving someone, he could do it.
Although this was a bit of an escape from reality.
Sometimes, escaping from reality was useful.
Lu Ze made up his mind. He had to train hard. He absolutely couldn't let this kind of thing happen to him.
He looked at Lin Ling's silent appearance with her head lowered. He opened his mouth, not knowing how to comfort her.
After all, he hadn't experienced this kind of pain himself. No matter how he comforted her, it would seem empty and powerless.
Lu Ze scratched his head. "If you want to cry, then cry. I can lend you my shoulder to lean on."
As soon as he said this, Lu Ze felt dazed.
He remembered that he had said this to Alice not long ago.
He didn't know if every high-ranking family in the Federation would have this kind of difficulty of making a choice for the greater good of their race or for themselves.
Lu Ze shook his head and didn't think about it anymore. This kind of thing, he couldn't figure out the answer even if he thought about it.
Lin Ling heard Lu Ze's words. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and rolled her eyes at him.
Her eyes were slightly red and there was a trace of blood at the corner of her lips. There was still a trace of red blood on her delicate chin. She had a different kind of charm.
Her bright eyes had a hint of ridicule as she smiled at Lu Ze. "Yo, Lu Ze classmate, are you trying to take advantage of this situation? Unfortunately, I've been around for so many years. I don't cry so easily anymore. "
Lu Ze: "…"
He couldn't be bothered to talk to her. He was an upright and kind young man, okay?
Why would he think of taking advantage of this situation?
Seeing that Lin Ling seemed to have recovered, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, he continued to speak. "So you lived with Elder Lin in the Telun System?"
Lin Ling heard this and nodded. "I was only four years old at that time. My great-grandfather was traveling with me outside and happened to come to the Telun System. In the end, when he heard the news, he didn't want to go back and settled down there."
Lu Ze: "…"
So Elder Lin got into a fight with this guy?
Thinking about it, it made sense. He was already heavily injured and his strength regressed to this extent. Now that his granddaughter-in-law died in battle, he must be very upset, right?
"But what does this have to do with your strength increasing?"
Lin Ling heard this and her eyes flashed. She said with a complicated expression, "My great-grandfather kept telling me to inherit his origin power. After all, he can't use it with his current physical condition. However, I felt that he might have a chance to recover, so I didn't accept it …"
"After this battle, my great-grandfather contacted me again …"
Lu Ze heard this and looked at Lin Ling's complicated expression. He said, "This time, you didn't reject because you felt that you were too weak?"
Lin Ling nodded silently.
Lu Ze rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
No wonder the Federal University didn't come to the Telun System and suddenly came this year.
Was it because of Lin Ling?
If that was the case, he seemed to be basking in Lin Ling's limelight. Otherwise, he could only pass the college entrance exam and enter the Federal University. Then, his development would be different.
At the same time, Lu Ze realized that Elder Lin, that old man, was very evil!
That guy told him to attack Lin Ling from the start. Could it be that he had this idea in mind?
After all, according to Lin Ling, she had never inherited Elder Lin's power.
After all, her strength was not bad compared to others.
However, this time, because of the intensity of the battle, her performance couldn't be compared to Lu Ze's. With her proud personality, she definitely couldn't bear it.
So she chose to accept it in the end?
Thinking about it this way, wasn't everything according to Elder Lin's plan?
Elder Lin's villainous smile appeared in his mind. It was as if everything was under his control.
No wonder Lin Ling said that Elder Lin had been praising him.
Lin Ling didn't know, but he knew very well!
After thinking it through, Lu Ze felt a little complicated.
Was this considered a type of inheritance?
Even if he couldn't use the cosmic system state origin power, he gave it to Lin Ling so easily. It could be seen how much Elder Lin loved Lin Ling.
And after giving it to him, he wouldn't be able to recover his strength, right?
At this moment, Lu Ze looked at Lin Ling. "What kind of injury did Elder Lin suffer?"
Lin Ling shook his head. "I'm not sure, but his body has been decaying. It should be some god art, right? I asked, but he didn't tell me. Now, Great Grandpa only left the origin power to maintain his life force and gave the rest to me. "
Lu Ze nodded silently and remembered this in his heart.
If there was a chance, he wanted to see if he could help Elder Lin.
He had to think of a way no matter what.
Then, he looked at Lin Ling and said, "But since Elder Lin has always wanted you to inherit, he clearly has high hopes for you. Lin Ling, you don't have to feel burdened. When you're stronger, perhaps you can help Elder Lin find a solution?"
Lin Ling's eyes flashed with determination as she nodded.
Although she knew the hope was slim, she wouldn't give up.
She smiled at Lu Ze. "When I completely integrate with Great Grandpa's origin power, my power will definitely increase greatly. My god art is the same as Great Grandpa's. Grandpa also gave me the Consonance Treasure Record. When I learn it, hmph … Lu Ze, just you wait!"
Then, she waved her fist at Lu Ze.
Lu Ze looked at Lin Ling's hopeful face and nodded expressionlessly. "Good luck, I have high hopes for you."
He didn't feel anything and even wanted to laugh.
This girl was indeed very stubborn, but he couldn't let her surpass him.
