A Letter from Home, a Venerable-Level Elder Protects the Way!

This disciple's face immediately turned as pale as paper.

Even his knees began to buckle!

Cold sweat instantly streamed down his forehead.

There was no other reason—it was simply because the oppressive aura Lin Feng brought was too terrifying!

He was merely an ordinary inner sect disciple of the Sea of Reincarnation Realm.

How could he possibly withstand such horrifying pressure from Lin Feng?

Seeing the disciple's state, Lin Feng was also startled. He then withdrew his aura.

At the same time, he said softly, "Sorry, I just finished cultivating."

Because his Desolate Ancient Sacred Body had been operating at full force, the Sacred Body's domineering aura still lingered around him. Let alone a disciple of such a low realm, even someone at Lin Feng's level would tremble all over upon encountering him, seized by the urge to prostrate themselves in worship.

Hearing Lin Feng apologize, the disciple shook like chaff in a sieve. "N-No, Senior Brother Lin, what are you saying? I was the one who disturbed your cultivation. I deserved ten thousand deaths to begin with. It is only because you are magnanimous that you spared me..."

Lin Feng waved his hand. "No need for that. Why did you come?"

The Sea of Reincarnation Realm disciple nodded repeatedly. "Y-Yes, I came to see you about something. This letter was sent from the Lin Clan of the Great Yan Dynasty. The recipient named on it is you..."

At those words, Lin Feng's gaze sharpened.

A letter from the family?

The Lin Clan of the Great Yan Dynasty was precisely Lin Feng's own family.

Lin Feng was even the Lin Clan's young heir, the kind who had gathered countless favors upon himself.

The Lin Clan's patriarch was his father, and the clan's many elders had all shown him great care and affection.

There had been none of the infighting seen in other families, where people fought over the position of patriarch.

On the contrary, the Lin Clan was exceptionally united.

They had also paid an enormous price to send Lin Feng into the Limitless Sacred Land.

Lin Feng was quite grateful for all of this. It was a good family.

Coming back to himself, Lin Feng took the letter and opened it.

He wondered what the family's letter contained.

When he opened the letter—

Three seconds later, frost had already gathered between Lin Feng's brows.

Naturally, it was because of what the letter said.

The family was in trouble. He had to return.

The letter explained everything clearly. A descendant of one of the Lin Clan's old enemy factions had become the successor of a powerful sect, supposedly holding an extremely high status. That sect even had Venerable Realm experts!

That descendant of their enemy had now returned to the Great Yan Dynasty with people in tow. As their former enemy, the Lin Clan could neither sit nor stand at ease, so they had come to ask Lin Feng for help.

They asked him to see whether he could find some connection within the Limitless Sacred Land. The connection did not need to be particularly important—even an outer sect disciple of the Limitless Sacred Land would be enough.

After all, to ordinary sect factions, even an outer sect disciple was exceedingly prestigious!

That was because outer sect disciples were official disciples, not trash like nominal disciples who did not even qualify as part of the ranks.

Yet at this moment, the Lin Clan would never have imagined that Lin Feng had already become an inner sect disciple.

He was also renowned on the Inner Sect Prodigy Ranking, with substance to match his fame.

What was more, he had caught the attention of a great figure beyond the Venerable Realm.

"The family has run into a little trouble. I should deal with it."

Lin Feng slowly rose to his feet, and terrifying power instantly burst forth.

As an inner sect disciple, he needed to report it before descending the mountain. This time, since he was traveling far away, he had even more reason to report it.

He arrived at the Internal Affairs Hall.

The moment the Internal Affairs Hall elder saw Lin Feng, his pupils contracted slightly. Then he said, "You've become stronger again?!"

After saying that, the Internal Affairs Hall elder spoke in a rather helpless tone. "Did you challenge the cultivation cave again? Or did you challenge a disciple on the Prodigy Ranking?"

He had assumed Lin Feng had come to exchange for rewards.

After all, Lin Feng's strength had improved by so much again, becoming incomparably terrifying. He wondered whether the current Lin Feng could contend against the eightieth-ranked disciple on the Prodigy Ranking.

"Elder, I have come to descend the mountain," Lin Feng said.

"Oh?"

Hearing that Lin Feng was not here to exchange rewards, the Internal Affairs Hall elder was stunned for a moment before his expression turned solemn.

Recently, relations between the Limitless Sacred Land and the Ten Extremes Demon Sect had become incomparably tense.

Venerable-level figures from both sides had already stepped onto the field, and the winds of conflict were only growing fiercer.

A prodigy disciple like Lin Feng was not someone ordinary disciples on the Prodigy Ranking could compare to.

In the Internal Affairs Hall elder's eyes, Lin Feng was guaranteed to become at least a core disciple!

Therefore, disciples of this caliber had to be exceedingly cautious when descending the mountain!

Not to mention that the Limitless Sacred Land and the Ten Extremes Demon Sect now seemed to be on the verge of war.

"Must you go?" the Internal Affairs Hall elder asked.

"The family is in trouble. I have to return," Lin Feng said with a slight nod.

The Internal Affairs Hall elder pondered for a moment. Under such circumstances, it would make no sense not to let him go back.

"Very well. Here is your token for descending the mountain. Take it." The Internal Affairs Hall elder handed it over.

Lin Feng nodded slightly, took the token, and headed straight down the mountain!

A moment later.

The Internal Affairs Hall elder felt that Lin Feng's descent from the mountain was no small matter. His talent was outstanding, and he was one of the Limitless Sacred Land's future seeds.

His gaze immediately turned toward the Scripture Repository.

Boom!

With a thought.

A strand of divine sense was sent toward the Scripture Repository.

"Supreme Elder, Lin Feng is descending the mountain. Should we send an elder to accompany and protect him?" the Internal Affairs Hall elder asked.

The Scripture Repository elder opened his eyes, terrifying divine radiance erupting from them. "If anything happens to his talent, it would be far too great a loss for the Limitless Sacred Land!"

"Send Elder Zhu. Have him follow behind Lin Feng and ensure his safety. Do not reveal yourself unless it is a critical moment!"

This Scripture Repository elder held an exceedingly distinguished position. Even the Internal Affairs Hall elder treated him with utmost respect and addressed him as Supreme Elder. He was clearly a figure beyond even the Venerable Realm!

The Internal Affairs Hall elder accepted the order and promptly notified Elder Zhu.

Lin Feng happened to know that Elder Zhu as well. He was the one who had appeared among the nominal disciples before.

However, Lin Feng did not know that at this moment.

After receiving the token for descending the mountain, he made his way toward the Great Yan Dynasty!

That was his homeland, where he had grown up, a place etched deeply into his memories.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Great Yan Dynasty was incomparably grave.

In a small dynasty like the Great Yan Dynasty, even the strongest imperial family had only a Dao Condensation Realm ancestor guarding the clan.

Yet across the Great Yan Dynasty, Dao Condensation Realm experts were existences unseen in the open!

On the surface, a Palace of Destiny Realm cultivator was already considered exceptionally formidable.

And now—

A peerless genius of the Xu Clan had returned from the Tyrant Blade Sect, bringing Tyrant Blade Sect disciples with him and acting with extreme arrogance.

The Xu Clan's peerless genius held deep feelings for the Xu Clan. The first thing he intended to do upon returning was unify the entire Great Yan Dynasty!

He wanted to overturn heaven and earth, replacing the Great Yan Dynasty's rightful rule with that of the Xu Clan.

And this Xu Clan was none other than the Lin Clan's former enemy...

Because of this, the atmosphere within the Lin Clan was so heavy it seemed ready to drip water!

From top to bottom, including the patriarch, the elders, and even children of seven or eight, every member of the Lin Clan wore an expression of boundless worry!
