Lin Family.
Lin You sat cross-legged on the ground, staring unblinkingly at the small sapling before him.
A four-hundred-fold cultivation speed was better than nothing.
He gained almost not a sliver of progress.
Only a single thought echoed in his mind.
When in the world is that damned young master coming to find him for revenge?!
Completing the quest would yield two Colored Crit Roulettes!
And the most precious Aptitude Improvement Potion.
He was truly anxious!
Suddenly,
several long rainbows streaked across the vault of heaven.
Lin You instinctively raised his head, and he saw a dense mass of figures rushing toward the Lin Family.
Leading the charge
was precisely the fellow whose arm he had severed the other day!
"They're here, they're here!"
"You're finally here, wails!"
Lin You rubbed his hands together excitedly, tears streaming down his face.
He took a step forward, striding into the void.
Before the other party could even speak, he struck a pose.
"Say no more, I understand everything!"
"Rest assured, in a battle between peers, family elders will never make a move!"
"Solo or a brawl?"
"Take your pick!"
Upon hearing this, over a hundred people froze on the spot, utterly failing to understand what kind of character this fellow in front of them was.
Fortunately, Feng Yutao stepped forward, turning to cup his fists toward the crowd.
"This person is the famed Lin You."
"Number one in the Heavenly Pride Competition, who boasted of fighting the sixteen star domains alone..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lin You.
"Say no more, it's all me!"
"Make your move!"
Everyone was completely dumbfounded.
What was going on?
According to the normal routine, upon seeing himself surrounded by so many people,
shouldn't he run away?
Or try to reason things out?
Why did he look even more excited than they were!
Could it be a trap?
Feng Yutao was also somewhat dumbfounded, eyeing the surroundings suspiciously.
Only after repeatedly confirming there was no ambush did he ask doubtfully, "Lin You... what, what do you mean?"
Lin You spread his hands in a shrug, saying matter-of-factly.
"Aren't you guys here to fight?"
Feng Yutao was at a loss for words. "Well... so what if we are?"
"That makes things easy."
"Begin!"
Lin You struck a combat stance, appearing as though he wanted to take on a hundred single-handedly.
Seeing him act this way,
the young man who had previously spoken with Feng Yutao stepped forward first.
His brows were filled with an indescribable arrogance.
Just the look of him carried a dense aura of superiority.
This was the result of long-term pampered living.
He sneered, slowly raising his hand as starlight flickered at his fingertips.
"You are Lin You?"
"You don't even fear twisting your tongue boasting so wildly!"
"A group beating for you—are you even qualified?"
"Have you ever heard of Youlong Cave and Yang Ye?"
"From the moment I began cultivation until now, I have never known defeat!"
As his voice fell,
everyone drew in a sharp breath of cold air.
"Goodness me, no wonder he looked a bit familiar earlier; it turns out he's from Youlong Cave!"
"What kind of place is Youlong Cave? Can someone tell us?"
"That's one of the rare body-refining factions in the sixth-grade star domain, whose martial dao is not only divine, but whose physical bodies are also incomparably formidable."
"They are often able to fight across multiple realms."
"And Yang Ye is the premier senior disciple of Youlong Cave; I heard that five years ago he already defeated cultivators at the Martial Immortal Sixth Heaven!"
Hiss...
Inside the Lin Family residence,
the others had also walked out, but they received a spiritual sense transmission from Lin You.
No one was allowed to act.
For now, they could only watch the battle from the sidelines to prevent any unexpected accidents.
Yet Zhao Ling'er grew somewhat panicked, and she hurriedly said,
"Uncles."
"We cannot let Lin You fight that Yang Ye."
"Yang Ye has already cultivated the Flood Dragon True Body, and his physical strength alone is enough to slay cultivators of the same realm."
"That's not even counting divine abilities and secret arts!"
The Eighth Elder lowered his head in surprise.
"Little girl, how do you know that?"
At these words, Zhao Ling'er raised the jade slip in her hand.
"Before coming here, I already conducted a preliminary investigation."
"Almost everyone of renown throughout the entire sixth-grade star domain, apart from those hermits who never emerge, is recorded within this."
"This Yang Ye's strength can rank in the top ten among all the heavenly prides of the sixth-grade star domain!"
"Furthermore, he is a few years older than Lin You and has a higher realm."
"This is a completely unfair battle!"
The members of the Lin Family fell silent upon hearing this.
They wanted to open their mouths to dissuade You'er, yet they did not know how to speak.
This was simply because he had already transmitted his voice to them earlier.
No matter what, they were strictly forbidden from interfering in this battle.
The Su Family.
Inside the grand hall,
Su Ming looked unconcerned and leisurely brewed a fresh pot of strong tea.
He poured a cup each for Wei Yi and Zhuo Chengxuan at his side.
"Why must Fellow Daoist be in such a rush?"
"If Lin You dies, when will this Lin Family ever see a day of revival?"
Wei Yi took the cup of tea and nodded repeatedly.
"The Su Family Head plans with profound foresight; I can only confess my own inferiority."
Zhuo Chengxuan also flattered him, saying, "A brilliant strategy. If the Lin Family dares to act presumptuously and intervene to protect Lin You,"
"we can then move against the Lin Family in the name of bullying the juniors with our superior status."
"Splendid!"
The corners of Su Ming's mouth curled into a faint smile, clearly very satisfied with this scheme.
He raised his teacup and said softly, "Fighting a hundred alone?"
"Does he truly think he is some unworldly young master of an everlasting family?"
"Among these heavenly prides, even I back in the day would have had to carefully weigh things."
"The Lin Family."
"Hmph, even if they are a dormant dragon, they still have to coil up for me!"
