A Dumbfounded Wan Lin

Wan Lin initially didn't want to talk about his affairs, but under Chu Xinghe's persistent questioning, Wan Lin finally spoke up.

Wan Lin's background is also remarkable; she was born into the Wan Lineage in Cloud City.

Although the Wan Lineage is not one of the three great families in the world, Wan Lineage is still Lineage of considerable importance.

Wan Lineage was famous throughout the world for its medical clinics, Wan Lineage Medical Hall had branches in almost every major city.

However, Chu Xinghe learned from Wan Lin that Wan Lin's father, the previous head of the Wan Lineage family, had passed away shortly after Wan Lin's birth.

Large Lineage like this are never easy to manage. Because Wan Lin was the only daughter, her uncles were constantly vying for power, all wanting to become the new head of the Wan Lineage.

Fortunately, Wan Lin's mother was truly strong enough to withstand pressure from all sides and become the head of the Wan Lineage as a woman.

Wan Lin was raised by his mother as a boy from a young age because in his mother's eyes, Wan Lin had to be stronger than her in the Future and shoulder the Wan Lineage, unlike ordinary girls.

Hearing this, Chu Xinghe somewhat understood why Wan Lin had such peculiar hobbies.

Chu Xinghe could tell from Wan Lin's words that Wan Lin didn't actually have a particular taste for that... it was just that her upbringing had made her that way.

Later, Wan Lin displayed unparalleled talent and successfully entered the Vast Heaven Sect.

On the day he left the Wan Lineage, his mother held Wan Lin's hand and talked to him all night.

The mother told Wan Lin, "Entering the Vast Heaven Sect, you are a new prodigy with unlimited Future. The Wan Lineage is already a quagmire. Don't come back. Be a completely new Wan Lin in the Vast Heaven Sect." This was a mother's greatest hope for her daughter, and everything a mother could do for her.

After joining the Vast Heaven Sect, Wan Lin was well-liked by his senior sisters in the Hill Forest Palace and received various forms of help from Senior Brother Xinghe. Now, Wan Lin truly deserves to be called a prodigy.

With Wan Lin's talent, it's not entirely impossible that he could take over Hill Forest Palace in the Future.

Wan Lin is also gradually adapting to this new version of himself.

There's no need to wear a mask, no need for intrigue, and no need for any pretense.

Within the sect, I can cultivate diligently, and whenever I encounter any problems, my senior and junior sisters will help me, and Senior Brother Xinghe will take great care of me.

Wan Lin felt he had been reborn.

Wan Lin gradually understood why his mother had made him pretend for so many years. Back then, if his mother hadn't been strong enough, or if he had been too weak, they would have been devoured long ago, leaving not even bones.

Wan Lin wanted to become stronger, to become stronger and stronger, so that one day when he had a voice in the Vast Heaven Sect, he could return to Cloud City in the most glorious way and tell his mother, "From this moment on, your daughter will take on the burden on your shoulders."

From this day forward, no one in this world can look down on us, mother and daughter, and you, Mother, don't need to work so hard anymore.

But just a few days ago, Wan Lin suddenly received news from his Lineage.

The Wan Lineage offended the Zhou Medical Hall for some reason. The Zhou Medical Hall was far more powerful than the Wan Lineage's, Zhou Medical Hall launched a series of attacks against the Wan Lineage from all sides.

In a short period of time, Wan Lineage has been subjected to fierce attacks from all sides, and now Wan Lineage is riddled with holes and on the verge of collapse.

Wan Lin sent a letter to his mother wanting to inquire, but his mother's reply was very simple, telling Wan Lin to stay in the Vast Heaven Sect and that she didn't need to worry about family matters.

Yet, Wan Lin could still sense his mother's despair between the lines.

For the first time, Wan Lin realized that despite his best efforts, he still couldn't help his mother.

They could only watch helplessly as the Wan Lineage was gradually devoured by the Zhou Clan, and as their mother's many years of hard work were destroyed in an instant.

Wan Lin dislikes the Wan Lineage, but Wan Lin cares about his mother. To him, his father is just a name, but to his mother, he is her everything. That's why his mother has worked so hard all these years to protect everything his father left behind.

But in the end...

Wan Lin had considered using the Vast Heaven Sect's abilities, but... why? What reason would the sect have to help the Wan Lineage? Just because he was a disciple of the sect?

A sect can stand up for itself, but standing up for one's own Lineage? No sect would ever do such a thing.

After all, sects have too many disciples. If one sect gets involved in a problem today, and another sect gets involved in a problem today, how can the sects manage?

So Wan Lin realized that there was really nothing he could do. Even though his senior sisters came to care for him one by one, he didn't say anything to them. But the person in front of him was Senior Brother Xinghe, the person he respected the most. Talking to Senior Brother Xinghe made him feel a little better.

"Bang!"

Before Wan Lin could even thank Senior Brother Xinghe for listening to his story, Chu Xinghe smashed the stone table in half!

Are they tired of the Zhou Medical Hall?! They even dare to mess with my Wan Lin's Lineage?

Wan Lin, don't panic, your senior brother will help you this round!

Sects are not allowed to stand up for their disciples' Lineage, but I can, Senior Brother Xinghe!

So this is just a small Zhou Medical Hall, huh? And you dare to block my Wan Lin's Lineage? This time, your senior brother will carry you to victory!

You Senior Brother Xinghe to wage a business war against me? I may not understand business warfare, but I'm Senior Brother Xinghe!

With the entire Vast Heaven Sect behind me, crushing a Zhou Medical Hall would be a piece of cake.

You dare bully my junior sister's mother? You're all asking for trouble!

Junior Sister Wan Lin, stay calm! This time, your senior brother will show you that not only can he teach you Staff Intent, but he's even better at roasting people.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, you absolutely mustn't... The Zhou Medical Hall is no ordinary institution; it has considerable backing. If our sect intervenes, even if we win, the sect will inevitably suffer losses."

Wan Lin was deeply moved, but Wan Lin knew that if he had to ask Senior Brother Xinghe to intervene because of his Lineage's affairs, and the sect suffered losses, how could he face anyone then?

Wan Lin's words only made things worse; they made Chu Xinghe so excited he almost flew away.

What?! There's an unexpected bonus?

I'm here today, holding my ID card in my hand, to tell you with my real name that I haven't considered any losses to the sect at all; I just want to help you, my junior sister.

But junior sister, do you have a surprise for your senior brother?

Junior sister, you're absolutely right. This is a business war. My Vast Heaven Sect can't just send a bunch of big shots to wipe out the Zhou Medical Hall. That's not something a righteous sect should do, right...?

Even if we did it, we'd lose the business battle first, and then we'd have to come up with at least a plausible reason to crush them...

But what kind of power does my Vast Heaven Sect have? Could we possibly lose a business war? Are you kidding me?

The Zhou Medical Hall wants to wipe out Wan Lineage, right?

My Vast Heaven Sect is going all out to support the Wan Lineage, pouring in all sorts of resources. With these two sides locked in a fierce battle, wouldn't the sect suffer all sorts of losses?

Even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory. But don't worry, Junior Sister, my Vast Heaven Sect doesn't care about these few small losses. If your senior brother says he'll carry you to victory, he will!

And with my junior sister helping me, how could we possibly lose this round!

Chu Xinghe didn't waste any more words. He originally planned to take out the Haotian Token and throw it in Wan Lin's face.

But then I thought, we don't need to use a nuclear bomb to swat a mosquito, do we?

So he directly took out his disciple's token, and the three characters "Chu Xinghe" shone brightly on it.

"Junior sister, take my disciple's token. Cloud City is located in the north, where our Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce's northern branch is located. Although I have no idea who is in charge, you should rush home now and make sure the Vast Heaven Chamber of Commerce's Northern Branch cooperates with you at all costs."

"Senior brother, I'll be overseeing things from here at the sect. All the resources will arrive soon. If we don't completely crush the Zhou Medical Hall practitioners this time, we'll consider it a clean slate!"

"Senior Brother Xinghe... this... such a big matter, shouldn't we report it to the Sect Master? At the very least, shouldn't we let the Grand Elder know?" Wan Lin's eyes welled up with tears.

With Senior Brother Xinghe's words, the Wan Lineage took off from the spot.

Chu Xinghe didn't waste any time and directly took Wan Lin to the Medicine King Palace, where they found the Grand Elder who was refining medicine.

Wan Lin looked at the Grand Elder, who was concentrating intently on refining medicine, and asked with a look of fear, "Should we wait a bit?"

After all, disciples dare not disturb the head disciple when he is practicing in the Hill Forest Palace.

But Senior Brother Xinghe immediately declared, "What are you waiting for... Charge!"

Then Wan Lin saw Chu Xinghe go directly to the Grand Elder, and without caring what kind of medicine the Grand Elder was concocting, he briefly told the Grand Elder about Wan Lin's situation and clearly stated that he would help his junior sister Wan Lin this time.

Upon hearing Senior Brother Xinghe's words, Wan Lin saw the Grand Elder's expression change drastically!

Seeing the elder's angry expression, Wan Lin was so frightened that he almost knelt down before him.

After all, this was a private matter for his family. His senior brother actually wanted to use the power of the sect to help with his family's private affairs, and even interrupted the Grand Elder's alchemy. Wouldn't the Grand Elder be furious on the spot and make him go back to the Hill Forest Palace to reflect on his actions?

Just as Wan Lin was worried that he might implicate Senior Brother Xinghe, the Grand Elder spoke up.

Get out of here!

As expected... Wan Lin trembled with fear.

Chu Xinghe remained completely calm!

"How many times have I told you! From now on, make your own decisions about these trivial matters. You're a mature child now. If you report everything to me, how will you shoulder the responsibilities of the sect in the future? Get out!"

"Okay!" Chu Xinghe obediently took Wan Lin and rolled away.

Even after leaving the Medicine King Palace, Wan Lin's head was still buzzing.

What just happened?

Senior Brother Xinghe interrupted the Grand Elder's alchemy and is even going to abuse his power to help him?

The Grand Elder was furious, but wasn't the reason for his anger somewhat off?

Shouldn't the Grand Elder have told Senior Brother Xinghe that the sect shouldn't interfere in such matters?

Shouldn't he be sent back to the Hill Forest Palace to be punished?

The Grand Elder was very angry, but weren't his words a bit outrageous?

What do you mean by making such a trivial decision yourself?

Is this such a trivial matter?

So, did the Grand Elder mishear?

But I was there myself! Senior Brother Xinghe's report was flawless, and everything he said was correct. Senior Brother Xinghe didn't even use any rhetoric; he just emphasized that he wanted to help his Wan Lin and that he wanted to crush the Zhou Medical Hall!

But what does it mean that the Grand Elder acted that way without warning?

Wan Lin was stunned, but just as Wan Lin was completely bewildered, something even more Wan Lin happened...
