Liancheng, the Lin family …
Now, the Lin family was shrouded in dark clouds. Their days were filled with silence. It was as if something had happened, causing the entire Lin family to sink into silence.
"Sigh, could it be that the Heavens really want our Lin Family to perish? Now, almost all of the direct descendants are gone and those from the side branches are almost completely wiped out. If the situation continues to develop at this rate, I'm afraid it won't be long before our Lin Family is completely wiped out in the Fire Country."
"This … what should we do …"
Master Lin, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked haggard. His hair was white, and he seemed to have lost his vitality.
Logically speaking, with the old man's current cultivation and age, this should not have happened. The old man, who was supposed to be in the prime of his life, had become like this.
"Father, don't think about that matter anymore. After all, it's not what you want to happen." Off to the side, Linley's mother, Firecloud, watched as her grandfather slowly grew more and more haggard. She felt unbearably guilty.
But … she could only watch helplessly. During this period of time, the descendants of the clan had died one after another. Not only the Old Master, but even she was mentally and physically exhausted by this matter. If it wasn't for her son who was away, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold on.
"How can you not blame me?"
In front of the old man, sadness gushed out. "I am the head of the Lin family. I am supposed to protect the Lin family in this life."
"Not to say that I am rich, but at least I am not worried about my life. But now …"
"But now, the clan's disciples are either dead or injured. Furthermore, the clan's business has been destroyed by my hands. Three out of four of my sons have died. This scene has caused me to be ashamed to face my ancestors. I … I … I … I … "
A tear flashed, flowing from the corner of his eye to his cheek. He was even more sad.
Who said that a man of steel wasn't gentle? As the old saying goes, men don't cry easily. It's just that they haven't been hurt to the core. Now that the old man's heart was broken, he was powerless to stop everything that was happening in front of him.
He … was tired.
"Father, you …" Seeing the old man so sad, Huo Yun wanted to say something to dissuade him, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he felt as if he was choked by something and couldn't say what he wanted to say.
She could not say what she wanted to say. In the end, she could only sigh and end the conversation.
"Sigh, if … if Ray was here, maybe … maybe the family's difficulties could be resolved." A glimmer of hope flashed through the old man's lifeless eyes. However, it was only a glimmer of hope, and it was gone in a flash. Then, it returned to normal.
"No …"
Huo Yun hurriedly refused the old man's suggestion. This was the second time she had heard the old man say this.
Previously, she had refused once. Although she had seen how powerful her son was, as a mother, she didn't want her son to return to such a dangerous place at such a time. Although she had some inkling of how powerful Linley was, she still couldn't accept it.
"Sigh, don't be so agitated."
Hearing his daughter-in-law's roaring voice, the old man froze awkwardly and hurriedly tried to dissuade her. "I-I was just thinking about it. It was just a casual remark."
Ray is the Lin family's only hope. How can I bear to let him return at this time?!
Indeed, as the only son of the third generation, Lin Ray, the old man would not let him return at this time.
"I … I understand."
After she said that, the two of them looked at each other and stopped talking. The scene fell into silence again.
Liu Changtian and his group arrived at the city gate. Five days … For five days, Liu Changtian and his group traveled day and night. Finally, on the fifth day, Lin Tian, Liu Changtian and his group arrived at the city gate where the Lin family lived.
"Beat him up. Beat him to death. Let's see if he dares to disobey our City Lord again." A loud noise came from the city gate and entered the ears of Liu Changtian and his group.
"What's going on?"
Hearing the noise coming from the front, Liu Changtian frowned and his face darkened.
As the former City Lord, he knew that the control of Lian City belonged to the Lin Family, but … he didn't remember the Lin Family being so arrogant and despotic.
"Sigh, what a sin. A good young man, because he didn't pay the entrance fee, in the end …"
"Shh …"
At this time, two people passed by Liu Chang Tian. One of them sighed, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by the other person who made a gesture to keep quiet.
"You can't say that." His face was filled with fear as he looked around. He was afraid that someone would hear what he was about to say. He was especially vigilant.
"Times have changed. The era of the Lin family is over. The Long family entered the city and the Lin family hid in the Lin family. Now, the Long family is the emperor of Lian City. As the saying goes, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. Even if the emperor knows, he won't say anything."
"Officials protect each other. Moreover, the Long family offers many rare treasures to the royal family every year."
"Sigh …"
When these words were said, the two shook their heads and sighed. Their faces were filled with anger.
The two of them did not know that their conversation brought a huge amount of information to Liu Changtian.
"Long family?"
Liu Changtian was filled with doubts about this unfamiliar family. He had never heard of this Long family. However, just in case, when Liu Changtian heard about this family, he searched through his mind. He wanted to see who exactly this Long family was.
Similarly, if the Long family was in control of Lian City, then … what about the Lin family? When he heard the conversation between the two people, Liu Changtian was even more puzzled when he heard that the Lin family hid in their home and did not come out.
The Lin family used to be an existence that no one dared to offend. They were a family that could make the entire Yan Country tremble with a stomp of their feet. However, now …
Liu Changtian's expression changed again and again. Each time, it was uglier and gloomier than the last.
Wang Yun and the others understood Liu Changtian's expression. Their hearts skipped a beat. They understood that the Lin family was in trouble. In that case, they had something to do next.
"Brother Liu, let's …" Wang Yun said.
"Let's go into the city." After saying that, he walked towards the city gate. Liu Changtian decided that this time, he had to completely clear the obstacles in front of the Lin family. It did not matter if there were experts in front of them.
He could not do it. Lin Ray was still around. He believed that if Lin Ray made a move, no one in the entire continent would be a match for him. Moreover, he also believed that with his current strength, even if he could not conquer the entire continent, he could still do it in a place like the Yan Country and Lian City.
"Let's go!"
Looking at Liu Changtian's back, Wang Yun felt pity for those troublemakers. "I hope you don't go too far. Otherwise …"
Liu Changtian did not know what Wang Yun was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely laugh. It was not because of anything else, but because Wang Yun thought too simply.
The reason why he tolerated the Sword Sect again and again was because although the Sword Sect was wrong, they did not deserve death. However, now that the Lin family was in trouble, this was Lin Ray's home. Anyone who offended the Lin family would definitely be killed.
Even if it was just verbally insulting the Lin family, Liu Changtian would also be … killed.
His thoughts represented Lin Ray's thoughts. However, if it was Lin Ray, he would probably do something even more terrifying than Liu Changtian.
If one person insulted, the entire family would be exterminated. If one person from the Lin family was injured, the entire Lian City and even the forces behind them would be destroyed. Even if some people did not know about this, they would still have to die.
There was no other reason other than that they were familiar with the person who insulted and hurt the Lin family. That was all.
A group of people lined up. Liu Changtian talked a lot about beating, insulting, and humiliating the people who entered the city. Some of the city guards even wanted to forcefully drag the young girls into their rooms to humiliate them physically. Regarding this scene, the people present could be said to be angry but did not dare to say anything.
"Bastard, you have really disgraced the Yan Country's soldiers." Just when the vicious man was feeling aggrieved, a loud shout was heard. The murderous intent in the voice was imprinted in everyone's heart.
"Hmm …"
The loud voice attracted everyone's attention, including the city guards who were about to drag the young girls into their rooms.
At this moment, everyone was stunned on the spot, especially the passers-by who were next to Liu Changtian and the others. The shock on their faces was shocking to the eye.
"Who is it? Who is speaking? Do you not want to live anymore? How dare you speak so arrogantly to the guards of the Long family?" The guard who had been sitting on a chair at the city gate like an official was the first to regain his senses. His expression was gloomy as he swept his gaze over the crowd.
His gaze immediately fell on Liu Changtian. The moment the guard's gaze fell on Liu Changtian, Liu Changtian also looked at him. After the two pairs of eyes met, Liu Changtian's murderous intent completely erupted.
"It's you …" Looking at Liu Changtian, the guard's tone was cold and sinister.
"Oh, that's right, it's me." Looking at the guard, a murderous intent flashed. He said, "As a soldier of the Yan Country, how dare you treat the people of the Yan Country like this. Don't you know that the people are the foundation of the country?"
Looking at him, Liu Changtian said word by word, looking like a superior who was reprimanding his subordinates. "Aren't you afraid of being punished by the heavens for acting so rashly?"
Everyone at the side was completely stunned. As people who had lived under oppression for a long time, they had long had enough of those days where they were neither human nor ghost, and were like animals. However, because they had no strength to truss up a chicken, they were powerless and could only be bullied by others.
Now, hearing someone reprimand these evil people, the passers-by were very excited. However, when they thought of the other party's strength, some of them couldn't bear to speak and tried to dissuade him.
"Young man, you should leave quickly. These people are not to be trifled with. The Long family is very powerful in the entire Lian City and even the entire Yan Country. You are still young and have many days ahead of you. Don't get into danger because of this matter."
"Yes, yes, young man, leave quickly. Otherwise, it will be too late."
"Leave quickly …"
Dissuading laughter rang out one after another. Liu Changtian's heart tightened. After all, he used to be the City Lord and hated these people the most.
"Hmph, leave …"
With a cold snort, he ignored the crowd and looked at the leading officer. The murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger. "Today, the entire Lian City will return to the Lin family. No one can change this."
"It's useless to just come to the Yan Country. I, Liu Changtian, said it."
"Boom!" The moment these words came out, the crowd exploded. Especially the soldiers who were guarding the city. Their faces were all red and looked very funny.
"Is it possible?"
When the people of Lian City heard Liu Changtian's words, they only had these three words in their hearts. "Is it possible?"
Yes, is it possible? Is it possible to liberate the entire Lian City? With the existence of the Long family, is it possible to return it to the Lin family?
"Boom!" A shocking murderous intent flashed. The officer who was looking at Liu Changtian released his cultivation. The old man, Liu Changtian, had a long sword in his hand.
The sword was pointed in the direction of Liu Changtian. This aura was so strong that ordinary people couldn't get close to him.
Of course, it was only ordinary people. In Liu Changtian's eyes, this officer in front of him was just a clown trying to please the crowd.
"Heh, you … are very courageous."
Looking at the officer holding the sword, a devilish expression appeared on Liu Changtian's face. "Since that's the case, then … die for me."
Xiu …
After finishing his words, Liu Changtian's figure suddenly disappeared in front of everyone. No one could react to this. Even Wang Yun and the others couldn't react, let alone some ordinary people who didn't know how to cultivate.
"Pfft!" The sound of flesh being pierced was heard, and a figure flew out.
"With such little strength, you still dare to commit crimes. I really don't know who your Long family is to dare to cause trouble in Lian City."
"Plop!" The figure that flew out fell. His body was soft and powerless, as if all the bones in his body had been broken. There was no vitality in his body at all.
"This …"
Wang Yun exclaimed. He was the first person to come back to his senses.
In Wang Yun's vision, the officer from before was lying on the ground in the distance. His body was lifeless, and at the place where the officer's heart was, a fist-sized blood dragon appeared. Scarlet and boiling blood flowed out continuously like a fountain.
"Hiss …"
After an unknown period of time, the sound of someone sucking in a cold breath sounded in the field.
At this moment, everyone came back to their senses and understood the officer's situation.
"Today, Lian City will once again belong to the Lin family. This cannot be changed for thousands of generations. If you're not convinced, you can give it a try." As soon as he said this, the spies from all over the country began to get busy.
After saying this, he ignored the shock and excitement in everyone's hearts and turned his head to look at Wang Yun and the other martial cultivators from the Sword Sect. "Before I enter the Lin family, I don't want to see the Long family again, and I don't want to hear any news of their existence."
"Remember, I don't want a single one of them to be left alive. Even if it's a servant in the Long family, or even the livestock raised by the Long family, I don't want them to be alive."
"If I find out that you secretly let a person and an animal go, then I'll take your lives!"
"Do you … understand?"
