The Lin family was one of the four major forces in Evergreen County. They had countless experts in the family and occupied 3,000 miles of spiritual land in Evergreen County.
There was a root left behind by the Ancient Divine Willow in the family. The family was under the control of the Evergreen Sect and nearly a hundred branch families. It had supreme authority in the county.
Since ancient times, the Lin family had produced many experts, including countless Spirit Path experts. Generations of family leaders had reached the peak of Spirit Path. Compared to them, Lin Buzheng's cultivation was only at the peak of Qi Path, which was indeed somewhat insignificant.
Not to mention that 20 years ago, when Lin Buzheng's father, Lin Shanyue, was cultivating in the main family, he had a stubborn and upright temper and offended many martial artists in the family. Now, these martial artists would undoubtedly do their best to stop Lin Buzheng from becoming the family leader.
On the other hand, the Lin family had encountered an unprecedented disaster.
Under the successive attacks of the Kunlun Demon King and the Soul Demon Sect, there were only a few hundred disciples left in the family, and countless Spirit Path experts had died. Even the family leader's cultivation had been destroyed by the Kunlun Demon King. There were no more talents in the family, and there was a shortage of experts.
Lin Buzheng's half-step Spirit Path cultivation could already be considered an expert in the family and was qualified to be the family leader.
Not to mention, Lin Buzheng's performance during the Soul Demon Sect's siege was extremely dazzling.
He killed the genius of the Soul Demon Sect's Battle Temple, took a blow from the Dao Demon Venerable, and retreated unscathed. He had boosted the morale of the Evergreen County's forces and almost single-handedly carried the battle, becoming the flag of Evergreen County in the battle.
As long as Lin Buzheng did not fall, Evergreen County would not fall.
His performance in this fierce battle was obvious to all. He was like a rising star of the Martial Path, rising powerfully, suppressing all directions, and dazzling.
In front of him, even Li Yunxiao, Zhang Linger, Genmizuhime, and other geniuses from prestigious sects paled in comparison.
His imposing figure even vaguely overlapped with the Emperors who led the human race through thorns and hardships in the ancient times, spilling blood and walking out of the remote and bitter lands. There was no doubt that he would become the leader of the Lin Family. Everyone expected him to do so.
Finally, what was even more coincidental was that all the powerful people in the family that Lin Shanyue had offended had all died in the hands of the Demon King of Kunlun not long ago. As such, the last obstacle in Lin Buzheng's path to becoming the head of the family had also disappeared.
For various reasons, Lin Buzheng became the family leader on the second day after the battle.
Lin Buzheng was obsessed with cultivation and did not care about the position of the Patriarch. He had no intention of becoming the Patriarch.
But he was clearly aware that after the great calamity, the clan was dispirited and had suffered heavy casualties, so they really needed an expert of the clan that possessed the ability to rally people to stand out and sweep away the decline and rebuild the clan.
It was good for both himself and the family. When he heard this news, he only thought for a while and agreed. Of course, Lin Buzheng's potential was limitless.
Of course, Lin Buzheng's potential was limitless. His talent in Martial Path was amazing, and he wanted to go beyond the family. Even if he became the family leader now, he would not be the family leader for long. He would leave soon.
The higher-ups of the Lin family were well aware of this.
In fact, the reason why the family appointed Lin Buzheng as the family leader was because they hoped that he could carry the family's banner in the face of adversity and become the spiritual pillar of the family. They did not expect him to manage the family in an orderly manner.
In addition, the higher-ups of the Lin family also hoped to tie Lin Buzheng to the family with this move, so that he would be closer to the family.
Although Lin Buzheng's cultivation was only at the Peak of Qi Path, he had repeatedly killed a Middle-stage Spirit Path Power Cultivator in the battle. He had even withstood a blow from an Earthly Devil Venerable without being injured.
He had displayed nature-defying strength and terrifying Martial Path talent. He had surpassed all his peers, including Li Yunxiao, Zhang Linger, Genmizuhime, and several other geniuses.
Even ordinary people could see that Lin Buzheng was a rare Martial Path genius, not to mention the sharp-eyed older generation martial artists. In time, he would definitely grow into a Supreme Martial Path Supreme.
However, the Lin family, as Lin Buzheng's father's family, did not pay enough attention to him. The cultivation resources they gave him were limited. Lin Buzheng's current achievements had almost nothing to do with the family.
The Lin family was well aware of this situation. Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets. They could only try their best to remedy the situation.
In this way, in the near future, when Lin Buzheng showed his outstanding talent and grew into a Supreme, he would take care of the family and make the Lin family's power flourish.
On the day that Lin Buzheng became the family Patriarch, the genius disciples of the branch family happened to report to the main family.
The young faces and the sparkling eyes were filled with endless curiosity and vitality. They injected new blood into the main house and brought the hope of revival.
It was foreseeable that in a few decades, when this generation of family disciples grew up, the Lin family would flourish and regain its former prosperity.
As time passed, the family disciples changed generation after generation.
This was the reproduction of life, the inheritance of Martial Path and beliefs. Although in the eyes of the big Sect and forces, it was extremely weak, it was like the grass that grew in the cracks of the rocks. It was incomparably tenacious and would never be cut off.
On the day that Lin Buzheng became the family Patriarch, Zhang Linger, Genmizuhime and the other geniuses, as well as the upper echelons of the Chen family, the Wang family, and the Honglei Martial Dojo, all came to congratulate him.
Li Yunxiao, one of the seven geniuses, came in the name of congratulation and apologized to Lin Buzheng for his previous reckless and impulsive behavior.
As a genius of the Heavenly Lightning Sect, Li Yunxiao considered everyone beneath him and had a violent temper. After coming to the Evergreen County, he repeatedly came into conflict with Lin Buzheng. He even declared that he could kill Lin Buzheng with a single hand.
Not long after, in the Sunset Cloud Valley, Li Yunxiao personally witnessed Lin Buzheng tearing apart Ye QingChe with his own hands. At that time, his entire body felt unwell. Afterwards, when he saw Lin Buzheng kill several tens of Mid-stage Spirit dao Devil Cultivators with overwhelming strength, he was so scared that he nearly pissed his pants.
After the battle ended, Li Yunxiao trembled with fear, as if he was treading on thin ice. He was afraid that Lin Buzheng would hold a grudge against him and come to kill him. Under such immense pressure, in less than a day, he completely broke down and came to apologize and beg for forgiveness from Lin Buzheng.
After Lin Buzheng figured out the cause and effect of the matter, he immediately burst into laughter.
Li Yunxiao was arrogant, domineering, and considered everyone beneath him. Indeed, Lin Buzheng disliked him. However, when the Demon Soul Sect attacked, Li Yunxiao risked his life and fought against the Demonic Cultivators, making great contributions.
After the battle, Lin Buzheng's impression of Li Yunxiao changed greatly. He had already written off all the things that Li Yunxiao had done to him, and did not plan to settle the score with him.
However, Li Yunxiao had no idea what Lin Buzheng was thinking. He spent all his time thinking about all sorts of things. The pressure he felt was so great that he was on the verge of breaking down. This was something that Lin Buzheng did not expect.
