Time passed day by day.
Just like how it was difficult to comprehend the Star Techniques of the Devouring Fire and the Fire of Rebirth, it was the same for the Star Sky Eyes.
Although Lin Feng was indeed talented, the comprehension couldn't be completed in a short period of time. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so rare to upgrade from the Star Lord level to the Star Domain level. It required extremely strong comprehension and a deep understanding of the Dao of Time.
After all, Lin Feng was just a beginner.
"I've already absorbed enough time energy."
"With the improvement of my Life Soul, the Star Sky Eyes has reached the peak of the second level. Now —"
"I just need to comprehend and break through!"
Lin Feng's expression was solemn and serious.
However, the more anxious he was, the harder it was to comprehend.
After all, it wasn't like the improvement of the Star Sky Eyes, which changed with the continuous absorption of time energy.
It required a "qualitative change"!
"What's missing?"
"What's missing …"
Lin Feng frowned, and all the information about the Star Sky Eyes kept appearing in his mind. However, it was only about using and cultivating. As for how to comprehend it, it seemed to depend on each person's luck. Just as he was thinking, Lin Feng suddenly froze, and all the information in his mind was instantly erased.
Everything paused at that moment.
His memory returned to the place of bloodline inheritance.
At the last moment when he and Patriarch Lin Zhen worked together to defeat Lin Zhongxian, he felt something …
"Yes, the power of the Star Sky Eyes!"
"The powerful energy that can change the control of time around!"
Lin Feng suddenly widened his eyes and stood up.
He shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and found it funny.
Why didn't he give up the great opportunity in front of him? Why did he have to comprehend it?
"The Patriarch also cultivates the Star Sky Eyes, and his Dao of the Star Sky Eyes is much better than mine."
"If I can watch him perform at a close distance and even teach him, I will definitely benefit. Moreover, my Star Sky Eyes are a special eye of the Learning Element. "
"I have basic abilities —"
"Comprehension."
…
In the inner city.
"Please inform the Patriarch that Lin Feng wants to see him," Lin Feng said softly.
"Lin Feng?" The two guards looked at each other. They had never heard of this name before.
"You are …" One of them hesitated.
Suddenly — —
"He is a martial artist of the family's sub-direct lineage, Lin Feng, who enjoys VIP treatment." A vigorous figure slowly walked out of the hall. He was dressed in blue and white armor that was extremely fitting. His tall and slender figure carried a candid aura. His face was somewhat similar to Lin Zhen's, but the most eye-catching feature was undoubtedly his eyes.
Incomparably moving!
It was as bright and dazzling as a star.
"Starry Sky Pupils?" Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
He was very familiar with the Starry Sky Pupils. It was as if he had seen someone wearing the same clothes as him.
The identity of this person was obvious. In the Lin clan, there were only two people who possessed the Starry Sky Pupils.
Lin Zhen and his eldest son, Lin Zhan.
"Father isn't here. Let's talk as we walk." Lin Zhan smiled as he walked towards Lin Feng. He put his arm around Lin Feng's shoulder, his bright eyes shining.
"Uh." Lin Feng was surprised. This was the first time he had met Lin Zhan.
But he was clearly a bit too 'enthusiastic'.
"Could it be …" Lin Feng's heart suddenly moved.
"No matter how I look at it, you are younger than me. Call me big brother in the future." Lin Zhan looked at Lin Feng and laughed heartily. "Although you and I are not born from the same mother, the same blood flows in our bodies. There is no need to treat me as an outsider. Let's go. I will introduce you to my younger brother, Lin Yi, and my younger sister, Lin Lan."
"As expected." Lin Feng said softly.
Lin Zhan really thought of himself as Lin Zhen's illegitimate son.
But …
"How did you know?" Lin Feng asked curiously.
Although there was no such thing as an airtight wall, no matter how you looked at it, Lin Zhen would not spread this matter around.
Lin Zhan chuckled. "I happened to overhear it. Does father think that I won't know if he doesn't say it? He is underestimating me, Lin Zhan." Lin Zhan's eyes flashed and he said proudly, "I also heard him and Yan Lao discussing about taking you in as a foster son. It was a roundabout way of setting up a title. If it were up to me, wouldn't it be better to just admit it? What's so shameful about it? "
Lin Feng burst into laughter. Lin Zhan's personality was even more carefree than his father's.
Straightforward, heroic, and not scheming at all.
"I don't care." Lin Feng smiled faintly.
His eyes flashed, but he understood Lin Zhen's motive.
If he took him in as a foster son, they would be father and son in name, but whether they were truly father and son was no longer important.
At the very least, it could confuse the public.
"Oh, I say, little brother." Lin Zhan sized up Lin Feng and joked, "You are too generous. If it were me, humph, this old man doesn't want to acknowledge me, but I don't want to acknowledge him!" Lin Zhan couldn't help but shake his head, as if he was speechless towards Lin Feng.
Lin Feng laughed, "Right, brother Lin Zhan, where did the clan leader go?"
"Still calling him clan leader?" Lin Zhan's brows relaxed. "You should call me 'father' instead. Also, you should call me 'big brother', do you hear me?"
"Okay, big brother." Lin Feng smiled.
Having a 'big brother' like this wasn't a bad thing.
Being a foster son was quite interesting. At the very least, he would have a lot of friends. No, it should be brothers and sisters.
Lin Zhan nodded, looking like he was a promising child. He said, "Wasn't there an internal strife a while ago? The clan has changed a lot. The deputy clan leader and the great elder have been imprisoned. Someone from the prefectural government has come, and it seems that they want to investigate this matter. It sounds quite troublesome. "
"Troublesome?" Lin Feng sneered.
"Yes, the Saint has set a rule that no violence is allowed in the major and central districts of Shiluo County." Lin Zhan said. "Violators …" After a pause, Lin Zhan couldn't think of anything after thinking for a long time. He suddenly looked at Lin Feng. "What will happen to violators, little brother?"
"How would I know?" Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh.
"Anyway, it won't be a good thing." Lin Zhan muttered a few times. "Who cares. Anyway, father will take care of this matter. Let's go." With a smile, Lin Zhan immediately threw the matter to the back of his mind. "Little sister will be very happy to see you. She's finally not the youngest one, haha!"
Lin Feng smiled, but he felt rather helpless towards this' big brother 'Lin Zhan.
It was true that this matter had nothing to do with him. Lin Zhan's personality was very free and easy.
However …
"I wonder if it will really be troublesome?" Lin Feng frowned slightly.
Lin Zhan could ignore it, but he couldn't turn a deaf ear to it. After all, this matter was closely related to him.
If it wasn't handled well, it would indeed be very troublesome for both his clan and himself.
"Wait, people from the prefectural government?" In an instant, Lin Feng's eyes lit up, and he stopped in his tracks.
"What's wrong, little brother?" Lin Zhan turned around and asked in surprise.
"Take me to see the clan leader, big brother," Lin Feng said softly.
"Ah?" Lin Zhan was startled.
Lin Feng smiled confidently. "Perhaps I can help 'father' solve this problem."
…
…
In the main hall.
"I'll say it again. Take me to the imperial prison." The voice was deep and powerful, with a hint of arrogance. It was a man dressed in luxurious clothes. His hands were clasped behind his back, and his head was slightly raised. On his chest was the emblem of the prefectural government, indicating his status and status.
"This … I'm afraid it's not very convenient, milord." Lin Zhen was very careful, not daring to offend him.
Although he had absolute power in his clan, he had no choice but to lower his voice in front of the emissary of the prefectural government.
Perhaps the emissary before him didn't have any real power, or perhaps he was ridiculously powerful, but he represented the prefectural government, the person in charge of all of Shiluo County …
The prefectural city lord.
"Don't talk nonsense with me." The emissary in luxurious clothes slanted his eyebrows and said coldly, "I don't care if your clan is forbidden or not. In Shiluo County, there is no place that the prefectural city lord cannot enter! If you don't take me there today, you will be disobeying the orders of the prefectural city lord. "
"What crime should you commit?!" The emissary in luxurious clothes ordered arrogantly, his voice loud and clear.
Lin Zhen and Lin Yan frowned tightly, but they felt that the situation was very tricky.
Right now, he could neither advance nor retreat.
"There's more." The emissary in luxurious clothes sneered, and he pointed at the golden box beside him with disdain. "Put away your meaningless greeting gifts. I didn't come here for your stinky money. You want to bribe me?" The emissary in luxurious clothes snorted, and his eyes widened. "I think you must have done something shameful!"
His voice was like thunder, and cold sweat dripped down Lin Zhen's forehead.
He thought that he could get rid of him with money, but he didn't expect that the emissary wouldn't even look at him.
It was quite troublesome.
Lin Zhen and Lin Yan looked at each other, communicating with their eyes. They felt helpless.
As such, they could only use a backup plan. They had already sent people to disguise themselves as Lin Zhongxian and the others. If it was an emissary from the prefectural city that they weren't familiar with, they should be able to deceive him. But since this person in front of them could call out Lin Zhongxian's name, he definitely knew him.
Could they deceive him?
Lin Zhen didn't have any confidence.
If the backup plan failed, they would have to bear the crime of 'deceiving'.
It was quite serious!
Moreover, they had to kill Lin Zhongxian and the others in order to get rid of future troubles. This action was undoubtedly harming others without any benefit to themselves, and it was harmful to the clan. However, they had to do it in order to cover up the secret. At that time, they would have to face the severe punishment of the prefectural city lord, and face another internal conflict in the clan.
Perhaps …
Lin Zhen didn't even dare to think about it.
The only thing he was afraid of was that the Lin clan would be destroyed in his hands.
As the clan leader, every step he took had to be careful and cautious, but now he had no choice but to walk on a tightrope, and it was incomparably dangerous.
One wrong move, and the entire game would be lost.
"Have you thought it through?" The emissary in luxurious clothes frowned and shouted impatiently.
Lin Zhen's eyes rapidly changed, but he was at his wit's end. Although he was very unwilling, he still nodded, and his voice was slightly hoarse. "Yes, emissary."
Just as his voice fell, suddenly —
"Father!" A familiar voice rang out. Lin Zhen was instantly stunned.
He looked over and saw Lin Zhan waving his hand and greeting him with a valiant smile on his face.
The most shocking thing was that beside Lin Zhan, there was a figure in black martial attire that was incomparably familiar. Lin Zhen's eyes widened, and he was incomparably shocked.
Lin Feng?
What was he doing here!?
