It was really difficult.
It seemed simple, but it was not.
He had to be capable, convincing, and trustworthy. Moreover, he had to be a human being. This requirement … was really too high. After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't find a suitable candidate. Lin Feng let out a long sigh and felt a little helpless. "Let's wait for Shun to return first. I don't feel at ease entrusting such a big southern region to someone I don't trust."
After all, this was his responsibility.
He couldn't shirk responsibility and wouldn't do irresponsible behavior.
As he was thinking in his heart, suddenly —
"Hmm?" Lin Feng's eyes lit up slightly. He looked into the distance and couldn't help but walk out with a smile.
The man's breath was very weak. He seemed to be an ordinary person, but his identity was quite extraordinary.
His father, Lin Xiaotian.
…
"Are you better, father?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.
Walking in the garden, looking at his father's face, he could roughly guess his father's physical condition.
"After a few days of rest, I'm almost recovered." Lin Xiaotian nodded slightly, without much expression on his face. Although he was now weak, he didn't look sad at all.
"I'm sorry, father," Lin Feng said softly. "You can't keep your cultivation."
Lin Xiaotian said indifferently, "I'm very satisfied to be able to stay alive and reunite with you and mother. Strength doesn't matter. What I lose will come back sooner or later." Lin Xiaotian's eyes flashed, and he said slowly, "But there are some things that can never come back once lost."
Lin Feng nodded.
He knew what his father meant.
He should do what he should do. Don't think so much. The opportunity was fleeting.
"I'm sorry, father. I haven't had time to accompany you and mother recently. When I have time, I'll take you back to the Lin Family Village to see my brother," Lin Feng said.
"It doesn't matter. Business is more important." Lin Xiaotian's eyes flashed with a soft light, and he said softly, "I can also take this opportunity to accompany your mother and make up for the regret of the past 30 years." Looking at Lin Feng, Lin Xiaotian's eyes flashed with a strange brilliance. "I was disheartened after the battle and lived in seclusion in the Lin Family Village. I only hoped that you and your brother could live a peaceful life, but I didn't expect …"
"Today, Feng 'er, you have actually become a top notch expert who commands the entire Dou Ling World."
"It's all thanks to you that your mother and I were able to reunite again."
Lin Xiaotian smiled and sighed softly, "The world … is really unpredictable."
Indeed.
Lin Feng also smiled.
Back then, his father had said that in terms of aptitude, he was not even as good as his younger brother. However, aptitude and talent were not everything.
Personality, opportunity, perseverance, perseverance, there were too many.
The path of a martial artist was only known to oneself.
"Actually, I didn't expect it either." Lin Feng shrugged and smiled.
Ever since he was young, he had never been an ambitious person with great goals. It was only for the sake of his family and loved ones that he walked the path of a martial artist step by step. Even after repelling the beast tide and saving the Tianwu Continent, it was the same. When he came to the Dou Ling World, he only wanted to find Zi Yao and save his father. He had never thought of sitting on the throne of the Human Emperor one day.
However, step by step, he had slowly walked to where he was now. It had to be said that there was heaven's will in the underworld.
Lin Xiaotian nodded and looked at Lin Feng with a solemn expression. He said earnestly, "The more power you have, the more responsibility you have to bear. As a father, I only hope that you will be safe and sound. However, at the same time, I also hope that you will not forget your original intention. Don't forget your responsibility. Only then can you be a real man."
"I will, Father." Lin Feng looked at his father, his eyes flashing.
"Mm." Lin Xiaotian replied. The solemn expression on his face slowly disappeared. He said softly, "When things calm down, I will return to The Kingdom of Maru with your mother to live in seclusion and live a simple life." There was a gentle light in his eyes. He unconsciously revealed a smile. It was a smile that came from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Feng knew that his father had thought it through. In fact, he had always known that his father was not a person who was attached to power. He might not be smart, but … he had great wisdom and great ability. He would be firm and persistent in the goal in his heart, even if he had to sacrifice his life.
And his character, in a certain aspect, was completely inherited from his father.
Mm?
Lin Feng's eyes suddenly lit up. Looking at his father, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.
Why didn't he think of it?
After searching for so long, he had forgotten about the person in front of him.
His father!
Patriarch 'Lin Zhen' had once mentioned that his father's ability was a hundred times stronger than his. However, his father had never liked to fight for power, so he did not take over as the patriarch. However, this did not mean that he was not capable! It should be known that at that time, his father's ability was stronger than his' second uncle '— Lam Tok Tei!
Just this alone was enough to show that.
Not only did his father have the blood of the human race flowing in his body, but he also had a strong sense of responsibility like himself. Most importantly, he was his father, a person who could be 100% trusted! Wouldn't it be wonderful if his father could take over the political affairs and control the rear of the Southern Region?
The only problem was, could his father convince the public?
The answer was obviously no.
Firstly, his father was not famous. Secondly, his father's strength was now zero. He was not even a martial artist. It was too difficult for him to convince the public. Lin Feng pursed his lips and frowned slightly. In an instant, he laughed self-deprecatingly. So what? What did it matter if the public was convinced or not?
He was his father. Who would dare to say 'no' if he was pushed to the top?
Using people for his own sake? He used people for his own sake! It had always been like this. Wasn't it the same when he pushed his younger brother onto the political platform in The Kingdom of Maru? What happened later? His younger brother had real ability. As he slowly made achievements, he was now sitting firmly on the throne and was famous for his prestige.
Could it be that his father didn't have real ability?
Lin Feng smiled faintly. When he thought of this, the only scruple in his heart disappeared.
It was decided then!
The only question now was whether his father was willing to do it or not. If his father really didn't care about politics and wanted to live a carefree life with his mother, then as his son, he naturally wouldn't force him to do so.
"What do you want to say?" Lin Xiaotian looked at Lin Feng's hesitant expression and said indifferently.
"Father, I have an idea … but I don't know if you are willing to do it?" Lin Feng looked at his father and smiled. His father was indeed shrewd. He only showed a slight expression and his father had seen through him. In this case, there was no need to hide. There was nothing that could not be said between father and son.
Soon, Lin Feng briefly explained his thoughts to Lin Feng.
Lin Xiaotian's eyes lit up and he fell silent.
The atmosphere was quiet.
In the garden, Lin Feng walked side by side with his father. He did not want to disturb him. He did not want to interfere with his father's decision. It would be good if his father was willing to help him. If his father was not willing, he would just let it go. Although he knew his father would definitely agree if he insisted, it was not his intention.
After a long time …
"I promise you." Lin Xiaotian slowly uttered four words, landing on the ground with a sound.
Looking at his father, he could see from his eyes that his father was not doing it for power or responsibility. Instead, it was for a precious …
The love between father and son.
…
…
Deputy Region Master!
As the Lord of the Southern Region, Lin Feng officially gave the order.
He appointed two Deputy Region Masters, namely Shun and Lin Xiaotian. This order caused an uproar in the Southern Region. There was an uproar in the Nine Continents. They could not believe it. Shun's appointment could be said to be supported by the people, but Lin Xiaotian …
Who was Lin Xiaotian?
This question puzzled the people of the Southern Region.
…
"Let me tell you a secret. Lin Xiaotian's true identity …"
"He is Lin Feng's biological father!"
"What?! Is this for real? "
…
"He appointed a person who can't even be the Clan Leader as the Deputy Region Master?"
"He has no experience at all. How can he manage the entire Southern Region? This is too much of a joke, right?"
"That's right. I heard that Lin Xiaotian has just recovered from his serious injuries. He's so weak that he can't even truss a chicken. If it's a one-on-one battle, I can defeat him!"
…
All kinds of rumors were spreading in all the continents and counties.
With the instigation of some people, the rumors became more and more outrageous. There were even signs of resentment among the people. However, the people were not convinced. Humans were like this. They would forget the pain once the scars had healed. Not long ago, they had received Lin Feng's favor and praised him countless times for his ability to protect the Southern Region. But now, they had just turned around … and Lin Feng's contributions had already been thrown out of the window.
They thought the power of the people was the most powerful and the power of public opinion was quite strong. They only remembered Lin Feng's' kindness' but forgot about the past.
Lin Feng was the existence they called a 'tyrant'!
"Those who are not convinced, get lost!"
"Leave the Southern Region and go wherever you want!"
"From now on, those who talk about this in private will be arrested! Those who spread rumors and create trouble will be locked up! Those who try to sow discord will be locked up! Those who insult will be killed! "
"I don't want to hear any more gossip about my father. Those who violate the rules will have to bear the consequences!"
…
In the sky of all the continents, Lin Feng held the Doomsday Spear in his hand and his eyes were cold.
A strong killing intent burst out. Even though it was just in the sky, one could still feel the terrifying aura. It was a naked warning and a threat. Lin Feng never cared about how others thought of him. Whether he was wrong or not, history would judge him, not now!
Appointing people by favoritism?
He had always been like this.
A tyrant who acted alone!
…
It was quiet.
Since Lin Feng had issued a warning, he would not tolerate it anymore.
In an instant, the Nine Continents were filled with a reign of terror. After receiving the order, the City Lords wantonly arrested people in the teahouses and restaurants. It was very high-profile. All those who protested were locked up and locked up. A few who openly provoked and insulted him were even beheaded on the streets.
Their methods were extremely violent!
However, it was the most direct and effective way to shut people up.
Most humans bullied the weak and feared the strong because they were at the bottom of the social ladder and did not want to see others doing well. In just a few days, the storm quickly subsided. However, this was just the beginning. The real challenge did not come from the ordinary people of the Southern Region. It was —
The Liches and Demons.
