Lin Yuan: Is Your Face a City Wall?!

Lin Yuan could even feel tiny arcs of electricity flowing through his blood.

"Awesome!"

He stretched lazily, feeling stronger than ever before.

The Primal Chaos Saint Body handled automatic cultivation and leveling, while the Nine Heavens Thunder Emperor Scripture provided World-Ending attack power.

This combination was simply perfect!

Early the next morning.

When the first ray of sunlight streamed into the room through the enormous floor-to-ceiling window, Lin Yuan slowly woke up.

Curled up in a soft Exotic Beast-hide sofa worth tens of millions, he could not even be bothered to move A Single Finger.

"Young Master, you're awake."

An old butler in a tailcoat, his hair combed with meticulous precision, walked over.

Two beautiful Maids followed behind him. One carried washing supplies, while the other held a plate of crystal-clear fruit brimming with spiritual energy.

Lin Yuan opened his mouth.

One Maid immediately placed a peeled Purple Crystal Grape into his mouth.

Sweet juice and pure spiritual energy burst across his tongue, flowing down his throat and nourishing his internal organs.

This was the life of a top-tier second-generation heir: decadent and dull.

Uncle Zhong, the old butler, watched his Young Master's salted-fish manner of "opening his mouth when food arrived and stretching out his hands when clothes came," and a trace of helplessness and worry flashed through his eyes.

Although the Young Master had once been infatuated with that Li Family Girl, he had at least cultivated diligently and carried a sharp edge about him.

But ever since he had rejected the Li Family Girl yesterday, the Young Master seemed to have become a completely different person, turning...

Lazy to the extreme.

For an entire day, aside from eating and sleeping, he had simply lain around in a daze.

This state left Uncle Zhong, who had watched Lin Yuan grow up, deeply uneasy.

He silently withdrew.

Arriving at a Secret Room, he used a special Encrypted Communication device to report the scene here and his concerns to the Sea Stabilizing Divine Needle of the Lin Family.

Dragon Summer Country, Northern Border, in an uninhabited region sealed in ice for thousands of miles.

This was humanity's forbidden zone, where countless powerful and terrifying ferocious beasts lurked.

At this moment, a towering figure stood atop an Ice Mountain.

He was powerfully built, his full head of white hair whipping wildly in the wind.

Merely standing there distorted the surrounding space, while the wind and snow dared not approach within a hundred meters of him.

He was Lin Yuan's grandfather—Lin Zhan, the legendary Martial God who had guarded the nation with his own body for a hundred years!

"Roar!"

A heaven-shaking roar rang out.

A Nine-Headed Serpent Emperor, its massive body comparable to a mountain range, suddenly burst from beneath the ice.

Its nine savage heads spewed freezing breath capable of freezing souls as they lunged at Lin Zhan.

This ferocious beast could easily wipe out a large city!

Yet Lin Zhan did not even raise an eyelid. He merely lifted a hand casually and struck down with a Palm Strike through the air.

"Too noisy."

Rumble—!

The sky was instantly torn apart.

A Sky-Supporting Giant Hand condensed from endless spiritual energy appeared out of thin air, crashing down with World-Ending might!

The arrogant Nine-Headed Serpent Emperor did not even have time to let out a scream before the giant hand slammed it directly into the depths of the Earth Core.

Even the glaciers within a hundred-mile radius were reduced to Nothingness!

After doing all that, Lin Zhan looked as though he had merely swatted a fly.

Just Then, the communicator on his wrist began to beep.

Lin Zhan tapped it lightly.

The communicator screen suddenly lit up, revealing Uncle Zhong's figure.

"The Young Master is still... lying flat today. He was fed three Purple Jade Grapes this morning. His mental state and vital signs are both normal..."

As he looked at the contents of the report, a complicated and inscrutable emotion surfaced in those eyes capable of bringing about Starfall.

There was disappointment, there was helplessness, but more than anything, there was profound exhaustion.

Behind him, a middle-aged general in military uniform, his aura as deep as the Abyss, respectfully stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Martial God, the demon tide beneath the abyss has once again been suppressed by your Palm Strike. It's just that... there is news from the country. Please take a look..."

Lin Zhan waved his hand, his gaze remaining fixed on the communicator.

Those few simple lines seemed to give him a worse headache than the hundred million demon tide beneath the Abyss.

He let out a long sigh, his voice carrying a desolation no one could understand.

"Ah..."

"Forget it. Let him do as he pleases."

Lin Zhan waved his hand again, fatigue in his voice. "That brat used to chase after some girl all day long, humiliating himself. Now that he knows to lie at home and enjoy life, that counts as progress too..."

"As long as he doesn't cause trouble for the family or go out and be a simp again, he can lie around however he wants."

"My, Lin Zhan's, Grandson—even if he lies himself into a puddle of mud, no one in this world would dare touch a hair on his head!"

With that, the communicator shut off.

Lin Zhan turned his gaze toward the depths of the Icefield once more, his eyes sharpening like blades.

As long as he had not fallen, he could hold up a sky beneath which his descendants could lie flat as they pleased!

Dragon Summer Country.

Capital Martial Arts Academy, Advanced Cultivation Class.

Inside the spacious, brightly lit cultivation room.

Dozens of students sat cross-legged, listening to the Teacher on the podium explain methods for circulating spiritual energy.

In a corner of the last row.

Lin Yuan leaned against the wall, sleeping soundly, practically drooling.

To him, what the Teacher taught was not even as fast as automatically cultivating while Lying Down. Attending class was purely a waste of time.

Just Then, a fragrant breeze swept over.

Li Xuan'er moved with lotus-like steps and came to Lin Yuan's desk.

She had clearly dressed up carefully today. Her pale blue dress made her snowy skin stand out all the more, giving her a pure and delicate air.

Having learned her lesson from yesterday, she wore a sweet, lovable smile, and softened her voice until it was tender and syrupy.

"Brother Lin Yuan, wake up, okay~"

Her voice was neither loud nor soft, yet it was just enough for the surrounding students to hear.

In an instant, the entire class, including the Teacher on the podium, turned to look.

"Holy crap, she's here again!"

"Top Beauty Li has come looking for Lin Yuan again. What does she want this time?"

"This is going to be good. Look at Lin Yuan's simp expression—he'll definitely agree again, wagging his tail."

"Everyone knows Li Xuan'er is close with that Commoner Genius Ye Xuan. Eight or nine times out of ten, everything she gets from Lin Yuan goes to Ye Xuan."

The students around them whispered among themselves, their faces full of expressions that showed they were eager for trouble.

They were all waiting to see Lin Yuan become possessed by his "simp" side once more and put on another grand emotional drama of the year.

Li Xuan'er turned a deaf ear to those discussions.

She looked at Lin Yuan confidently and continued in that sickeningly sweet voice, "Brother Lin Yuan, I've recently encountered a bottleneck in my cultivation. I'm about to break through, but I'm short just one Ice Soul Orchid to stabilize my realm. Can you help me, please~?"

As she spoke, she gently swayed her slender waist and blinked her big, watery eyes at Lin Yuan, looking utterly pitiable.

This was her trump card. Whenever she had used this move in the past, Lin Yuan had been utterly unable to resist.

However, this time, she was facing a Lin Yuan whose soul had already been replaced.

Awakened by the noise, Lin Yuan slowly opened his sleepy eyes. He could not even be bothered to lift his eyelids fully, merely giving her an indifferent glance.

Ice Soul Orchid?

He remembered that this thing was meant for Ye Xuan, wasn't it?

In the Original Work, Ye Xuan had run into trouble while cultivating.

Cold energy had entered his body, and he had nearly suffered cultivation deviation. It was only thanks to this Ice Soul Orchid that he resolved the crisis.

He had even turned misfortune into blessing and comprehended an ice-element cultivation technique.

You want to use my things to save your lover?

A mocking curve tugged at Lin Yuan's lips. His thin lips parted, and he spat out a single word.

"Get lost."
