They naturally knew that Thorne Merlin was right. The young mage leading 500 Great Mages to the Ghost Valley was simply asking for trouble. If they were to fight with the Thawing Fire Tribe, then not many of those 500 Great Mages would survive. This would be a huge loss for the Merlin Family.
"Sirs, you should already know that I sent a report about Mafa Merlin to the Ancestral Land two months ago …" Thorne Merlin crossed his hands and gently tapped the table. A pondering smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he looked deeply at Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin before saying, "If nothing unexpected happens, Mafa Merlin's Commander status will soon be removed by the Ancestral Land. This is also good, it will save him from causing trouble."
The Ancestral Land hadn't made any movements since they received the report, but Thorne Merlin wasn't worried. Instead, he felt that it was a good thing. The Ancestral Land was definitely discussing how to deal with Mafa Merlin. The longer it took, the more serious Mafa Merlin's problem would be. In the end, they would definitely give Mafa Merlin a severe punishment.
Thorne Merlin wasn't worried at all.
In his eyes, that damned Mafa Merlin wouldn't be able to jump around for long.
But at this time, a faint mana fluctuation rose in the meeting hall. Thorne Merlin suddenly looked happy. He knew that the Ancestral Land had sent a message. His aura surged and countless golden runes appeared in the void, fiercely flickering.
"Haha, Sirs, this is too much of a coincidence. The Ancestral Land has sent a message. How about we take a look at how the Ancestral Land will punish Mafa Merlin …"
Thorne Merlin didn't conceal his smile.
"Alright … Alright."
At this time, Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin sensed the familiar magical waves, and their faces were already pale. They could not be sure whether the young mage would be punished by the ancestral land. After all, only the two of them knew the truth of the battle when they had just arrived at the Flame Demon Fortress. If necessary, they were willing to testify and defend the young mage.
But the matter of the young mage going to the Black Tower's Dark Moon Fort wasn't easy to explain. As the commander of the Flame Demon Fort, the young mage had a special status. If he went alone to the Dark Moon Fort, and Thorne and Merlin added fuel to the fire, the Ancestral Land would definitely think too much.
What to do …
Large beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead. His mage robe was also drenched in cold sweat and stuck to his back. However, the two of them raised their heads and looked at the golden runes anxiously.
After a few seconds, the golden runes began to change. They wriggled like tadpoles and formed clear characters. There was no doubt that they came from the Ancestral Land. When the two of them saw those words, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Then, they burst out laughing.
To be more precise, the message from the Ancestral Land only contained four words: "Meddling in other people's business"!
Meddling in other people's business!
Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin's faces were completely red. They were holding back their laughter, but they were already laughing in their hearts. They had thought of ten thousand possibilities, but they hadn't expected that the Ancestral Land's reply would actually be these four words. Clearly, these four words were directed at Thorne Merlin, who had reported to the Ancestral Land.
Just thinking about it was funny …
Thorne Merlin had just vowed that the Ancestral Land would definitely remove Mafa Merlin from his position as commander. However, the Ancestral Land didn't even mention it to the young mage, nor did they punish him. Instead, they were somewhat dissatisfied with Thorne Merlin. Otherwise, they wouldn't have said that Thorne Merlin was meddling in other people's business.
At this time, Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin were looking at Thorne Merlin with an extremely strange expression.
This was a naked slap in the face, and it was the kind of slap that could make Thorne Merlin vomit blood from depression.
In fact, Thorne Merlin really wanted to vomit blood. He had reported Mafa Merlin's crimes to the Ancestral Land, but the Ancestral Land didn't say anything and instead reprimanded him for meddling in other people's business.
'F * ck …'
He had left the Flame Demon Fort at a critical time and almost caused the fort to fall. The next day, he secretly went to the Black Tower's Dark Moon Fort and stayed there for an entire morning.
If there was a chance, Thorne Merlin would like to personally ask the Ancestral Land which of these two matters was meddling in other people's business.
At this time, his complexion was ashen and his heart was beating extremely fast. He had received too much stimulation. He had originally thought that taking the young mage's position as commander would be in the bag, but he hadn't expected this to be the final result.
Thorne Merlin's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the constantly flickering golden runes in front of him. He couldn't suppress the anger in his heart and let out a beast-like roar. He had waited for two months full of joy, only to be called meddling in other people's business. How could he not be angry?
But anger was of no use.
The Ancestral Land was clearly siding with the young mage, and they weren't even trying to cover it up, it was blatant favoritism!
Thorne Merlin was about to go crazy.
But at this time, light footsteps echoed as the robed Lin Yun slowly walked into the meeting hall with steady steps. As soon as he entered, he discovered that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Ida Merlin and Yuri Merlin were flushed and slightly lowered their heads. As for Thorne Merlin, his complexion was ashen and he was looking at Lin Yun with an extremely sharp gaze.
Lin Yun inwardly shook his head and didn't think too much about it. He directly walked over to Thorne Merlin. "Sir Thorne, I need some troops to support me …"
"Oh?"
The enraged Thorne Merlin emitted an icy aura, and he almost flipped out when he saw Lin Yun. Hearing Lin Yun's request, he gradually calmed down. His blood-red eyes stared at Lin Yun and a sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Now that the entire Planar Legion was firmly under his control, the young mage was simply an outsider. Even if the Ancestral Land didn't revoke the young mage's Commander status, so what?
In any case, the young mage wouldn't be able to do anything in the Raging Flame Plane without his support.
The young mage was leading over five hundred Great Mages to deploy in the Ghost Valley. Thorne definitely wouldn't give him any support, he would just coldly watch from the sidelines. Even if the young mage made a huge mess and led over five hundred Great Mages to be wiped out, it wouldn't have anything to do with him.
As he thought of this, Thorne Merlin took a deep look at the young mage and coldly said, "Mafa Merlin, I'm really sorry, but my people have another mission and can't leave the Flame Demon Fort without permission …"
"Those are your people? I clearly remember that it was the Merlin Family's Planar Legion, when did they become Sir Thorne's people? As the Commander, I have the authority to mobilize that legion. Sir Thorne wouldn't deny this, right? "
"Hmpf!"
"Of course I know you are the Commander, but if you can mobilize that Planar Legion, then go ahead. I won't stop you …" Thorne Merlin coldly snorted, looking at Lin Yun with disdain. Unless he personally gave the order, no one could mobilize that Planar Legion.
"Haha …"
Lin Yun had an indifferent expression, he had clearly guessed this outcome. He didn't say anything else and only chuckled. He didn't stay in the meeting hall and only glanced at Thorne Merlin before turning to leave. After passing through the layers of guards, he returned to his residence.
In fact, he didn't have much hope for that Planar Legion.
In his residence, he took out the Book of Death and spat out some dark and mysterious characters. In a flash, an intense fluctuation rose up and his silhouette disappeared without a trace.
Lin Yun appeared in the Natural Demiplane and stepped on the thick earth. The entire Demiplane was flourishing as far as his eyes could see. Fragrant grass covered the ground, shady trees, surging rivers, and so on. Every corner was filled with a rich aura of life.
After two months, the Demiplane had greatly changed. First, the mana density had increased once again, and a large part of it was due to the Mana Vines. Originally, a Mana Vine sapling would take at least two to three years to fully mature and extract mana from the void.
But in the special environment of the Natural Demiplane, the Mana Vine's growth speed was accelerated by more than ten times. It was to the point that in a short two months, it could already extract mana from the void and accelerate the growth of the Demiplane.
Lin Yun couldn't help taking a deep breath when he felt the rich mana assaulting his senses. He suddenly felt refreshed, and the fatigue he had accumulated over the past few months seemed to have disappeared. As he strolled on the lush green grass, he could see groups of two or three silhouettes concentrating on meditation. Wisps of mist-like mana that could be seen with the naked eye kept entering their bodies as if they were attracted by something. Those people's auras were changing imperceptibly at every moment.
After mastering the Rapid Star Mark Meditation Law Set, the efficiency of these people's meditation was enough to make others go crazy with envy. The fifty mages had stayed in the Natural Demiplane for over two months, spending all their time in meditation. Lin Yun, who had just arrived in the Demiplane, roused his Magic Array to its pinnacle and shrouded the entire area. He immediately discovered that Taji, the most talented of the fifty, was already a 9th Rank Great Mage. As for the others, most of them were already at the peak of the 9th Rank and were trying to advance to the High Mage realm.
These people's progress made Lin Yun secretly startled. After all, most of them had only been 1st Rank Great Mages two months ago, and the strongest hadn't even reached the 5th Rank. But now, they had undergone earth-shattering changes. They had all become 9th Rank Great Mages.
No one would believe such a terrifying rate of improvement if word of it got out.
The Natural Demiplane's unique meditation environment, the Rapid Star Mark formed from the fourteen formulas, and the qualitative change in their magic talent due to the influence of the Ancient God's aura. With all these factors added together, it was only natural for the fifty mages to progress so quickly. If they hadn't become 9th Rank Great Mages in two months, Lin Yun would have suspected that they had been slacking off while he was gone.
