The Lin Family Had a Half-step Invincible Old Ancestor Standing Guard

Silence!

The once lively, chaotic battlefield suddenly fell into dead silence.

Those five millstone-sized fists.

The fists that had instantly obliterated several foreign race Half-step King Realm experts without leaving even dregs behind.

They had stunned everyone!

The members of the Anti-Lin Alliance were dumbfounded, their hands and feet icy cold. They had never imagined that the Lin Family they had joined forces to destroy had such a terrifying existence standing guard.

They were scared half to death!

They had truly courted death!

They had practically committed the ultimate act of suicide!!!

They regretted it. They should never have set their sights on the Lin Family. They should have been groveling instead.

Too terrifying!

They swore that if they could return alive this time, they would take a detour whenever they encountered anyone surnamed Lin.

Lin Zhennan, suspended in midair, was stiff all over as his body slowly sank downward.

The terrifying five punches had not targeted him and had even curved around to avoid him, but experiencing them from such close range still filled his heart with a suffocating pressure.

He could barely catch his breath.

Those five punches were too terrifying, leaving his mind utterly blank.

If even one of those punches had targeted him—no, half a punch would have been enough—he would have had no confidence in taking it. He would likewise have been blasted apart without even dregs left behind.

The Lin Family clansmen were shocked, but thrilled.

They had never expected their family to have such a powerful expert standing guard, such profound reserves!

The fear that had risen in their hearts when the five foreign race Half-step Kings appeared finally eased once more.

However, after their emotions had plunged, surged, plunged again, and surged once more, they could no longer feel excited. All they felt was exhausted.

The situation had reversed, reversed again, then reversed yet again. It was simply too thrilling.

Lin Xueling gripped her longsword tightly and gazed up at the sky, her eyes full of yearning.

How wonderful it would be if one day she could become this powerful too!

"I wonder whether Little Chu Brother is this strong too. Or perhaps Little Chu Brother was the one who acted."

At the same time, a vague thought flashed through her mind.

Whether Chu He admitted it or not, in Lin Xueling's heart, he was an expert.

The foreign race members who had been letting out terrifying howls as they excitedly slaughtered the Human Clan around them to strengthen themselves were dumbfounded as well!

What was going on?

Where had their five huge, terrifying Old Ancestors gone?

Why had they suddenly disappeared?

There was not even a scrap left to see?

An illusion. It had to be an illusion!

They were unwilling to accept this terrifying reality.

But.

No matter how unwilling they were to accept it, no matter how many times they blinked or turned the matter over in their minds.

The bloody truth still lay before them.

Their five powerful, burly Old Ancestors were truly gone!

Not even dregs remained!

"Run! Run now!"

Some foreign race members came to their senses and bellowed at their companions, urging them to flee for their lives.

That hidden existence was too terrifying.

It had killed their five Old Ancestors in a single move. With such strength, they had no thoughts of revenge at all. They only wanted to escape as quickly as possible—the faster, the better.

Thus, amid shouted cries, the foreign race members who had come to their senses fled for their lives in the direction away from Lin City.

As the foreign race fled, the leaders of the Anti-Lin Alliance also snapped out of it. As if their hearts shared one thought, they simultaneously issued retreat orders to their respective forces.

The rear became the front, and everyone scrambled to flee for their lives, plunging the scene into utter chaos.

"Ha ha! You petty vermin, die!"

Lin Zhennan awakened from his stunned state, calmed himself, and let out a hearty laugh.

He did not simply indulge in his joy, either.

Having fought through countless battles, he naturally understood that this was the best time to beat a drowning dog.

Therefore, Lin Zhennan made a decisive decision and gave the order to pursue.

His body shot upward like an eagle as he took the lead in giving chase.

At this moment, neither the Anti-Lin Alliance forces nor the foreign race had any will to fight. Wherever the Lin Family pursued them, they slaughtered them.

No one was willing to stay behind to cover the retreat.

Everyone wanted to run a little faster than the others.

Some even resorted to dirty tricks, dragging back those ahead of them.

This was another difference between organized elites and a rabble thrown together.

Even when elite forces were pursued, their retreat would still retain some order, and some people would be assigned to cover the rear.

But a rabble cobbled together from all sides might manage a favorable battle. Once defeat appeared, however, they were like floodwaters after a dam burst—impossible to stop, rushing a thousand miles in one torrent.

It was a one-sided slaughter.

The pursuit continued until nightfall.

For a thousand miles, blood covered the land and corpses lay everywhere.

The main forces of the Anti-Lin Alliance and the foreign race were all killed. Only a small portion scattered and escaped.

Thus, the calamity that had threatened to annihilate the Lin Family came to an abrupt end in a manner no one had expected.

At the same time, the Divine Strategy Army, which had rushed over to encircle and suppress the enemy after detecting the aura of foreign race Kings deep within Xia Clan territory, spread the news.

The world was shaken.

Who could have imagined that after the Annan Legion was destroyed and Lin Zhennan was seriously wounded, after even the forces on their own territory in Lin Commandery could no longer be suppressed, the Lin Family—which had seemed like the setting sun sinking below the horizon—would still possess such terrifying reserves?

The family actually had a Half-step Invincible King standing guard.

Most importantly, Lin Zhennan's injuries were not as severe as the rumors claimed.

He could leap and jump, and he could still fight!!!

For a time, the top powers across the Xia Clan began to take the Lin Family seriously once more.

The Lin Family was still one of the Xia Clan's top families.

It had not declined because of the destruction of the Annan Legion. On the contrary, with a Half-step Invincible King standing guard, it had become even more intimidating.

Faced with others' probing, questioning, and curiosity, Lin Zhennan responded ambiguously, leaving them unable to discern the truth.

In truth, Lin Zhennan himself was completely bewildered and had not yet sorted things out.

That Half-step Invincible King did indeed have some connection to the Lin Family, but Lin Zhennan did not know him!

Although he had met him, it was practically the same as never having met him.

It sounded strange, but it was the truth.

Lin Zhennan guessed that the one who had acted that day was likely the senior who had saved him.

That senior had claimed to share a bond with one of the Lin Family's clansmen.

But exactly which clansman it was, what that senior's surname and name were, what he looked like—do not ask Lin Zhennan any of it.

Ask, and the answer was: he did not know!

Lin Zhennan was not even sure whether that senior was still within the Lin Family.
