"Chief, according to the family rules, Young Master Lin Yu should be imprisoned for at least half a year for his mistake," Zhang Zhi said to Chief Lin Qingshan.
Frowning, Lin Qingshan said, "Alright, let's do that."
Lin Yuanhe's expression changed, and he quickly said, "No, Father, the town's inter-family martial arts competition is in three months. If he's imprisoned for more than half a year, wouldn't that be …"
Hearing this, Lin Qingshan's expression darkened, and he said coldly, "You also know that there are still three months? If you had controlled Lin Yu better, this wouldn't have happened to him. A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. If you don't follow the rules, isn't it child's play? "
"But …"
Lin Yuanhe still wanted to say something, but Lin Qingshan waved his hand and said, "Say no more, Guard Zhang. Just do it. Do it immediately!"
…
The dungeon was dark and damp, and there was a strong musty smell coming from time to time. However, this did not affect Lin Long at all. He sat leisurely on the only chair in his cell.
In his previous life, Lin Long had gone through many hardships to achieve what Emperor Wu had achieved. Therefore, this little bit of difficulty was not a challenge to him at all.
However, Lin Yu, who was in the cell opposite him, was different. He didn't dare to sit on the stool that looked like it was dug out from the depths of a sewer. At the same time, he covered his nose with his sleeve. At first glance, he looked no different from those pampered young masters.
Of course, there was another important reason why Lin Long was so relaxed. He was only locked up in the dungeon for a day, which meant that he could leave the dungeon at this time tomorrow.
As for Lin Yu, he would have to drag his injured arm and stay in there for at least half a year.
Lin Rong was also locked up, but because he was an accomplice and took the initiative to expose Lin Long, he was only imprisoned for a month.
Looking at the relaxed Lin Long, Lin Yu could not help but grit his teeth when he thought about how he would have to stay in this dark place for six months. "Lin Long, don't be too happy. I'll definitely teach you a lesson when I get out."
"Is that so? Unfortunately, you won't have the chance, "Lin Long said calmly.
"How is that possible?" Lin Yu did not believe it. He felt that Linlong had only been able to defeat him previously because of luck. Otherwise, with Linlong's standard, how could he have so easily seen through the flaws in his moves?
"Because you will forever be under my feet."
"Hahaha, Lin Long, you must be dreaming. You want to trample me beneath your feet with your talent?" Lin Yu couldn't help laughing.
Linlong couldn't be bothered with him anymore. Instead, he began cultivating the Dantian Record. He had been busy with all sorts of things for the entire day and hadn't had the chance to cultivate.
Seeing that Lin Long was ignoring him, Lin Yu, who was gnashing his teeth in hatred, quickly shifted his gaze to Lin Rong in another cell.
"Lin Rong, how dare you expose me?" Lin Yu stared at Lin Rong and said.
"Brother Lin Yu, it's not my fault. It's my father's idea," Lin Rong said with a long face.
"Your father's idea?" Lin Yu was stunned.
…
At that moment, in Lin Rong's home, Lin Yuanhe was angrily yelling at Lin Yuanli, "Yuanli, what do you mean? How dare you help that little bastard to deal with me?"
"Big Brother, I have my own difficulties," Lin Yuanli said helplessly.
"What difficulties? Are they more important than the Spirit Orchid and my son?" Lin Yuanhe sneered.
"Big Brother, I can't say anything about this. I can only apologize to you." Lin Yuanli sighed.
"Okay, if that's the case, then don't call me Big Brother anymore." After saying that, Lin Yuan stormed out angrily. He even slammed the door loudly when he walked out of the door.
Seeing this, Lin Yuanli, who was behind him, could only shake his head and smile bitterly. He indeed had his own difficulties because Linlong somehow knew a secret of his from a few years ago. If he didn't tell the truth this time, his secret would be exposed. When that happened, he wouldn't have the face to stay in the Lin family anymore.
Because of this, he had no choice but to offend Lin Yuanhe.
"How did Linlong know this secret?" Lin Yuanli muttered to himself. This was something he couldn't figure out even after thinking about it for a few days.
He didn't know that Linlong was no longer the Linlong from before. He was an old monster with hundreds of years of memories.
…
The next day, when Linlong came out of the dungeon, the sun was shining brightly. When it shone on him, it gave him a warm feeling. It was really good weather.
Waiting for Linlong outside the dungeon was Xiao Die. Seeing Linlong come out, Xiao Die quickly went up to him. "Young Master, are you alright?"
"Of course I'm fine." Saying that, Linlong pinched Xiao Die's face.
What surprised Linlong was that other than Xiao Die, there was someone else who came to greet him. Furthermore, this person was Zhang Zhi.
Linlong was originally looking for Zhang Zhi. It was naturally a good thing that Zhang Zhi came to him.
"Guard Zhang, what's the matter?" Linlong asked.
"It's like this. In three months, the town's youth competition will be held. So, the clan leader hopes that Young Master Linlong will make the best use of your time to cultivate and contribute to the Lin family," Zhang Zhi said.
"Okay, got it." Linlong said indifferently. He wasn't surprised at all.
Although he had defeated Lin Yu previously, it was only a matter between the younger generation. As the clan leader, it was impossible for him not to pay attention to such things. Moreover, the martial arts competition in three months was very important to the family. So, he wasn't surprised that his grandfather was paying attention to it.
If Lin Qingshan didn't even pay attention to such things, the Lin family would have been destroyed in his hands.
As for the martial arts competition in three months, it had long been within Linlong's plans. Of course, Linlong didn't care about the rewards. Instead, he cared about the ranking. This was because the reward for the first place was related to a ruin.
In his memory, a Martial Saint had appeared in their town in his previous life. Although he didn't know who this Martial Saint was, he knew that the reason the Martial Saint had such a high status was completely related to the ruins.
A Martial Saint was an existence even more powerful than him, Emperor Wu. So, he was determined to get first place. He wouldn't let anyone else get the things in the ruins.
As he didn't know if the future Martial Saint had also noticed the ruins, he had to find it as soon as possible. Otherwise, a long delay could mean trouble.
However, based on his current strength, it would be difficult for him to get first place. This was because there were many powerful youths from the other clans.
If he wanted to get first place, he had to increase his strength by two levels within these three months. Only then could he guarantee that he would be able to get first place without any problems.
If it was in the past, it would be impossible to increase his strength by two levels within three months. However, it wasn't difficult at all for him now.
Now, he had his eyes on Zhang Zhi.
"Xiao Die, do you want to go to the market to take a look?" Linlong suddenly asked Xiao Die.
"Of course I want to go." Xiao Die became happy when she thought of the beautiful things in the market. However, she quickly calmed down when she thought of something. "It's just that, Young Master, we don't have much money left."
To be honest, Linlong was the poorest among all the young masters.
"It doesn't matter if we don't have money. It's fine as long as someone pays for us," Linlong said.
"Someone pays for us? Who is this person?" Xiao Die blinked, indicating that she didn't understand.
"He's Guard Zhang."
"Guard Zhang?" Xiao Die was stunned. She thought that her Young Master was joking. Although Guard Zhang said that he wanted to assist her Young Master, Xiao Die didn't think that the arrogant Guard Zhang would be so easy to get along with.
However, she was surprised to find that Guard Zhang didn't have any objections other than his face twitching inexplicably.
What surprised her even more was that Guard Zhang actually asked directly, "When will Young Master Linlong go to the market?"
"Right now!"
"Right now?" Xiao Die was stunned again.
"Yes, now is the time." After saying that, Linlong strode out in the direction of the market.
The reason why Linlong wanted to go to the market was that he needed Mysterious Qi Pills to increase his Mysterious Qi. He needed a lot of them, and he needed to start with Guard Zhang because Guard Zhang knew the only alchemist in town, Zuo Han.
That's right, Linlong's eyes were on Zuo Han.
Of course, he could also refine Mysterious Qi Pills himself. However, in his current situation where he didn't have money, he might as well find someone to help him refine Mysterious Qi Pills for free.
