Hiss!
At this moment, the huge backyard of the Lin family was dead silent.
The dozens of Lin family disciples were completely dumbfounded by the scene before them.
They had no idea why the Family Leader, Lin Yushan, would deal such a heavy blow to Lin Du.
"Family Leader, why …"
Lin Du fell to the ground, and a large amount of blood flowed out of his body. The intense pain of his spine breaking caused his complexion to turn deathly pale. It was a fate worse than death.
"Lin Du, as the steward of the family, not only did you do things unfairly, you even used your power to bully the weak of the family.
"From now on, Lin Du will be stripped of his position as the steward of the family!"
The Family Leader, Lin Yushan, looked at Lin Du with a cold gaze filled with disgust.
"Puff! — — "
When Lin Du heard the Family Leader's sentence, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted due to his heavy injuries.
"Hurry up and carry him away!"
Lin Yushan waved his hand impatiently. Two law enforcement disciples of the family appeared and dragged Lin Du away like a dead pig.
"This …"
"The Family Leader is punishing Lin Du personally. I'm afraid the family is going to change!"
The surrounding disciples whispered to each other when they saw this. They looked at the Family Leader, Lin Yushan, with strange gazes.
It was not the first or second day that Lin Du threw his weight around in the family and bullied the weak.
Everyone knew that Lin Du had a deep relationship with the Elders of the family.
However, not only did the Family Leader, Lin Yushan, personally strip Lin Du of his position as the steward of the family, he even heavily injured Lin Du with a palm strike.
This undoubtedly meant that there was going to be a change in the upper echelons of the family.
"Bu Zheng, congratulations on your progress. You've reached the Qi Path Realm!"
However, at this moment, Lin Yushan turned to Lin Buzheng with a faint smile on his face.
With just a single sentence, the doubts in everyone's heart were completely resolved.
Rumble!
As if in response to Clan Leader Lin Yushan's words, a dark blue Martial Qi emerged from Lin Buzheng's body.
Like a flame, it flickered on the surface of Lin Buzheng's body, emitting a terrifying power.
"This is … Martial Path True Qi!"
"Heavens, Lin Buzheng's cultivation has broken through the qi dao realm!"
"He has already broken through the qi path realm at the age of sixteen … Lin Buzheng will definitely be listed in the family's ancestral hall!"
"No wonder the clan leader wants to punish Lin Du!"
"To offend a genius of the clan in front of everyone, it's already benevolent of the clan head not to kill Lin Du on the spot in order to appease Lin Buzheng!"
The spectating Lin family disciples were speechless when they saw this scene.
A short moment later, the place seemed to explode, and exclamations of shock and admiration rose and fell!
The Lin family had thousands of disciples, but most of them were stuck at the Body Dao Realm for their entire lives.
Only a few dozen people had broken through qi path.
Among these dozens of people, most of them were martial artists with limited talent. They relied on many years of cultivation, the accumulation of tempering, and even the medicinal effects of pills to forcefully break through to the qi path realm. Their potential was exhausted, and they had no hope of reaching higher realms in this life.
Only a few people managed to break through qi path before the age of sixteen.
These people were undoubtedly true martial dao geniuses!
To them, qi path realm was just the beginning. In the near future, they would definitely soar into the sky and reach a realm that most martial artists in the world did not even dare to dream of!
Such geniuses were extremely rare in the Lin family, and there were only a handful of them in each generation.
But after a few years, it was these geniuses who grew into supreme experts and protected the family in the cruel martial world where the strong preyed on the weak!
It was precisely because of this that every time a martial dao disciple of the Lin family who broke through to qi path before the age of sixteen appeared, they would be nurtured with all their might and listed in the family's ancestral hall!
In the current generation, there were only a few such martial dao geniuses like Lin Liuliu and Lin Hao.
Unlike now, Lin Buzheng was a late bloomer, and he had accumulated a lot of experience.
In just a month, his martial dao cultivation broke through to qi path realm, and he became another person to be listed in the family's ancestral hall among the current generation of disciples!
"Lin Buzheng, are you going to the family's ancestral hall now or at the end of the month?"
The patriarch, Lin Yushan, looked at Lin Buzheng with an incomparably gentle gaze.
Lin Buzheng replied without hesitation, "Of course, the earlier the better."
According to the family's rules, every time a supreme heavenly genius appeared, the family's ancestral hall would be opened at the end of the month and all the clansmen would gather for a ceremony.
During the ceremony, the new genius would have his name recorded in the ancestral hall under the witness of thousands of clansmen.
After that, the family would give out cultivation techniques, silver, artifacts and other rewards.
The reason why Lin Buzheng came to the family to report was not for fame, but for the qi path cultivation technique that the family would bestow upon him. Naturally, the earlier the better.
"Alright."
"Your situation is a little special, and it is indeed not suitable for a grand ceremony."
"Follow me."
The patriarch, Lin Yushan, nodded towards Lin Buzheng before walking towards the ancestral hall.
Lin Buzheng immediately followed, leaving behind dozens of envious clan disciples behind.
"Bu Zheng, are you satisfied with my punishment for Lin Du?"
On the way, the patriarch, Lin Yushan, spoke.
"Thank you, patriarch, for helping me out."
Lin Buzheng's voice was filled with gratitude towards Lin Yushan.
Lin Buzheng knew very well that with Lin Yushan's status as the Patriarch of the Lin Clan, he definitely had a certain level of understanding towards the enmity between him, Lin Liuliu, and Lin Tianze. Lin Buzheng was even clearly aware that Lin Du was a lackey that Lin Liuliu had sent to deal with him.
But even so, Lin Yushan still heavily injured Lin Du with a single palm.
This undoubtedly meant that Lin Yushan was on his side.
In fact, it was possible that Lin Yushan, the clan leader, had instructed Instructor Lin Yong to protect him.
Because of this, Lin Buzheng felt grateful towards Lin Yushan from the bottom of his heart.
"Bu Zheng, I have heard about the grudges between you, Lin Liuliu and Lin Tianze."
"I didn't help you before because you weren't strong enough."
"In the world of martial arts, the strong prey on the weak. It is the same in the family."
"Different people will be treated differently."
"Only when you become stronger or display enough martial arts talent will the family lean towards you and provide you with powerful protection."
"This old man hopes that you can understand this principle."
Lin Yushan suddenly sighed softly.
"I understand."
After a full ten breaths of time, Lin Buzheng finally opened his mouth and replied.
He knew that although Lin Yushan's words were cruel, they were the truth.
Previously, even though the higher-ups of the family knew that Lin Liuliu was targeting Lin Buzheng and even wanted to take his life, they did not do anything.
Why?
It was because Lin Buzheng's martial talent was mediocre and his cultivation base was mediocre. Compared to Lin Liuliu who was in the second-layer Qi Path, there was a huge difference.
If he died, then so be it. The higher-ups of the family would not offend a supreme genius for him.
But now, the situation was different.
Lin Buzheng's cultivation base had broken through nine layers in a month and successfully reached the Qi Path.
The martial talent he displayed was even more terrifying than Lin Liuliu's.
As such, he was worthy of the higher-ups of the family protecting him.
