Chapter 52 Shakes the Lin Family: A Sudden and Powerful Enemy Appears! [Please Read On]

Outside Lin Yi's room, the family head Lin Zhentian, the younger generation including Lin Dong and Qing Tan, and the three Lin brothers were all gathered there.

They were all drawn over by the noise Lin Yi made during his breakthrough.

Seeing Lin Yi walk out of the room, Lin Zhentian quickly stepped forward and asked somewhat uncertainly, "Yi'er, the commotion just now, did you... break through to the Lesser Yuan Dan Realm?"

Lin Xiao, Lin Dong, and the others all looked at Lin Yi, waiting for his answer.

"Yes," Lin Yi nodded slightly, admitting it.

As he spoke, Lin Yi extended his right hand, and with a slight thought, his internal energy surged forth, quickly condensing at his arm. Faintly, one could see streams of extremely sharp white energy seeping out from the pores of his skin.

Pure Primordial Qi!

Truly a Lesser Yuan Dan Realm cultivator!

Upon seeing the white energy on Lin Yi's arm, Lin Zhentian and the others were filled with a mixture of surprise and delight.

"Haha... Good, good, good!"

Lin Zhentian laughed heartily and said "good" three times, unable to contain his excitement.

The three Lin brothers were both surprised and delighted after confirming that Lin Yi had broken through to the Lesser Yuan Dan realm.

Especially Lin Xiao, whose eyes were full of pride when he looked at Lin Yi, this was his son!

Lin Dong looked at Lin Yi, his eyes filled with shock and envy, and he was also happy for Lin Yi.

"Wow, Brother Lin Yi is amazing! He's only been here a few months and he's already broken through from the Heavenly Origin Realm to the Lesser Yuan Core Realm!"

Qingtan clapped her hands excitedly, her eyes filled with admiration as she looked at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I was lucky. Not long ago in Yan City, I had an opportunity, which is why I was able to break through so quickly."

At that moment, the system's reward message suddenly rang in Lin Yi's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on breaking through to the Yuan Dan Realm! You have taken a solid step on the path of martial arts. You are rewarded with five Yin Yang Pearls!]

Yin-Yang Beads?

This reward is just right for my current stage of cultivation.

Lincoln laughed and said, "Being able to obtain such an opportunity is also due to your ability. Now, our Lin family has two experts at the Lesser Yuan Dan Realm, so even in Yan City, we can have a foothold."

Lin Zhentian, always seeking stability, smiled and said, "That may be true, but we don't need to rush to Yan City. In any case, the income from the Yangyuan Stone Mine is enough for the Lin family's development for now. It's not too late to march into Yan City when we are stronger."

No one raised any objection to Lin Zhentian's words.

Next, Lin Zhentian encouraged Lin Yi a few more times before letting everyone disperse.

Once only his family was left, Lin Yi reached into his robes, took out a Yin-Yang Bead, and handed it to Lin Xiao, saying, "Father, this is for you."

"What is this?" Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the bead that emitted yin and yang energies.

Lin Yi said, "This item is called the Yin-Yang Pearl. I used a Yin-Yang Pearl to break through to the Lesser Yuan Dan Realm. This one is for you to use. After you refine it, you may also be able to break through to the Lesser Yuan Dan Realm."

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, Lin Xiao looked at the beads in front of him with a more fervent gaze.

After a slight hesitation, Lin Xiao put away the Yin-Yang Beads, patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, and didn't say anything more.

Lin Yi cautioned, "I only obtained three Yin-Yang Beads in Yan City. It's best not to let anyone else know about this except for the few of us."

Lin Xiao nodded slightly upon hearing this, "I understand."

"Brother Lin Yi, I'll keep it a secret too," Qing Tan and Lin Dong said in unison.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Of course I trust you. Let's go and celebrate my progress in cultivation by strolling around the market and relaxing."

"Great! Great!" Qingtan was overjoyed to hear Lin Yi's words.

Lin Dong scratched his head and said, "Brother Lin Yi, you guys go ahead. I want to cultivate for a little longer and try not to fall too far behind you."

"Keep it up," Lin Yi patted Lin Dong on the shoulder, then said to Lin Xiao, "Dad, Qing Tan and I are going to the market."

"Go on, don't stay out too late," Lin Xiao waved his hand and said.

"Got it!" Qingtan agreed, then excitedly pulled Lin Yi along as they headed towards the market.

The bustling market town of Qingyang was incomparable to the streets of Yancheng, but Qingtan, arm in arm with Lin Yi, was still having a great time strolling around.

Qingtan was extremely bored every day because she didn't need to cultivate and had nothing to do. She was naturally very happy to be able to go out shopping, especially since Lin Yi was with her.

"Let's go, it's time to go back," Lin Yi said as he saw that it was getting dark after leading Qing Tan around for several hours.

"Mmm," Qingtan replied obediently, though she hadn't had enough of exploring yet. Then, she and Lin Yi headed back to Tiemu Village.

Ok?

As Lin Yi and Qing Tan stepped into the gate of Ironwood Manor, they suddenly felt the ground tremble slightly.

Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, and the spiritual energy within his Niwan Palace immediately spread outwards.

In Lin Yi's perception, a torrent of blood suddenly surged up at the gate of Qingyang Town, and then swept towards Tiemu Village like a whirlwind, with an astonishing momentum.

"Enemy attack! Close the gates and send the signal!"

Lin Yi frowned slightly and immediately shouted at the guards of Tiemu Manor.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, the guards near the gate of Tiemu Manor immediately changed their expressions and hurriedly slammed the gate shut. At the same time, some guards also gave the signal for an enemy attack.

"All members of the Lin family, come out and face your deaths!"

Before long, a large group of people rushed to the outside of Tiemu Village. Then, a sharp shout, enveloped by powerful Yuan energy, resounded throughout Qingyang Town like a thunderclap!

A thunderous shout, carrying a hint of malevolence, spread throughout the bustling town of Qingyang.

The entire town seemed to fall silent for a moment, and then countless gazes were cast toward the direction of Tiemu Village, where the Lin family was located.

"Who could be causing trouble for the Lin family?"

"The Lin family wiped out the Lei and Xie families and dominated Qingyang Town for only a short time, but unexpectedly another powerful enemy has come knocking!"

"Just from that voice, you can tell the newcomer is not to be trifled with. I wonder if the Lin family will be as lucky as they were when they faced the Lei and Xie families?"

"..."

Outside Tiemu Village, a large group of people dressed in red surrounded the entire village, their glaring crimson exuding a menacing aura that was both shocking and alarming.

At the head of that large group of people, a man stood on his horse.

He was burly with dark skin, looking like an iron tower. Just by standing there quietly, he exuded a suffocating aura that made people dare not underestimate him.

The burly man was dressed in a red robe, with a cold face and slightly scarlet eyebrows that added to his menacing aura.

To the left of the man was a rather thin old man with a hooked nose. Judging from the fluctuations of his Yuan energy, he was actually a powerful expert at the Lesser Yuan Dan realm.

To the right of the man was a man dressed in a gray-yellow shirt who looked quite ordinary, with a faint smile on his face, seemingly posing no threat.

Thanks to Lin Yi's advance warning, Lin Zhentian, Lin Xiao, and the others had already arrived.

Lin Zhentian stood atop the courtyard wall of Tiemu Manor, gazing at the blood-red ranks below, and solemnly clasped his hands in a fist salute, saying:

"I am Lin Zhentian, the head of the Lin family. May I ask how you all address me? In what way has my Lin family offended you?"

Why did internal strife suddenly break out in Chapter 53? [Please continue reading]

"Heh heh heh, my Blood Robe Sect Master has come in person. Your little Lin family, why don't you open your gates and kneel to welcome him? Do you think my Blood Robe Sect wouldn't dare to massacre this place?"

The old man with the hooked nose stared at the Lin family manor with a gloomy expression and chuckled strangely.

Bloodstained Clothes Gate!

Upon hearing the words of the hook-nosed old man, Lin Zhentian and the others' expressions changed.

In recent years, they have visited Yan City quite a few times and have gained a general understanding of some of the forces in Yan City.

Although I don't know much about the Blood Robe Sect, I do know that its leader, Wei Tong, is a powerful expert at the Lesser Perfection of the Yuan Dan Realm, and is extremely ruthless!

They had no idea when they had offended a force like the Blood-Clad Sect.

Lin Yi's gaze swept over the Blood-Clad Sect members below, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Lin Zhentian clasped his hands in a fist salute to the leading man and said, "So it is Sect Master Wei Tong in person. My Lin family has never offended the Blood Robe Sect. Is there some misunderstanding here?"

Wei Tong glanced at Lin Zhentian and said calmly, "This Ironwood Manor was entrusted to the Lei family of Qingyang Town by my Blood Robe Sect. Now you dare to destroy Ironwood Manor and seize it. Aren't you courting death?"

Lin Zhentian's expression changed, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Sect Leader Wei Tong, this Ironwood Manor was lost to our Lin family in the bet war between the Lei family and the Lin family. Moreover, no one has ever heard of Ironwood Manor having any connection with other forces..."

"I'm not here to listen to your nonsense," Wei Tong said calmly, staring at Lin Zhentian with a cold look in his eyes. "You should commit suicide. Perhaps I will take pity on you and spare a bloodline for your Lin family."

“If you commit suicide, I might take pity on you and leave you with a complete corpse,” Lin Yi suddenly said before Lin Zhentian could speak.

"So you're Lin Yi, the genius from the Lin family?" Wei Tong's gaze shifted to Lin Yi, his eyes narrowing, a hint of cold light flashing within them. "You're truly arrogant beyond measure..."

Just then, behind Wei Tong, the two subordinates at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm closest to him suddenly flashed with a chilling killing intent in their eyes and launched a surprise attack on Wei Tong's head and back respectively!

"You are seeking death!"

Sensing the sneak attack from behind, Wei Tong's expression changed drastically. He suddenly turned to the side and simultaneously unleashed both palms, unleashing terrifying pure Yuan Qi, which attacked the chests of the two attackers!

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

The two late-stage Tianyuan Realm experts who launched the sneak attack couldn't withstand a single move from Wei Tong. Their chests were pierced on the spot, and their bodies flew backward, knocking down many of their companions!

Wei Tong's actions exposed his back to the hook-nosed old man on his left.

Just as Wei Tong made his move, the old man with the hooked nose seemed to have been prepared all along. He drew his long sword instantly and thrust it toward Wei Tong’s back!

This sudden change caught Wei Tong completely off guard; he didn't even have time to dodge, let alone retaliate.

"Pfft!"

A sharp sound of a weapon piercing flesh rang out as the old man with the hooked nose plunged his long knife into Wei Tong's back, causing blood to gush out!

"Ah, die!"

At the critical moment, Wei Tong managed to move slightly, avoiding the area near his heart. While shouting angrily, he endured the pain in his body, turned around abruptly, and slapped the hook-nosed old man on the head.

A look of madness flashed in the old man's eyes, yet he neither dodged nor avoided, allowing Wei Tong's left palm to strike his head.

"Oh!"
