Lin Zhan's eyes brimmed with tears.
These past few days, he had been living in constant fear.
After all, the Lin Clan had existed for a thousand years. It had weathered countless hardships over that millennium, but never had it been driven into such a desperate corner. Without outside help, the Lin Clan would very likely be destroyed by the Xu Clan. The hatred between the two clans was simply impossible to resolve.
That was why, in his letter, Lin Zhan had repeatedly urged Lin Feng to find an outer disciple of the Limitless Sacred Land and have them come over to lend the clan their prestige.
He had never expected Lin Feng himself to be an inner disciple of the Limitless Sacred Land!
Such an incomparably noble status was beyond anything Lin Zhan had ever dared to imagine!
It could be said that if the Great Yan Dynasty's imperial family learned of this news, they would absolutely send imperial relatives to visit in person. Gifts of every kind would come in an unbroken stream, and all the great clans of the imperial capital would come to offer their congratulations!
This was the majesty of the Limitless Sacred Land!
Inner disciples were true disciples. Once something happened to them, the Limitless Sacred Land could never possibly stand by and watch!
The Lin Clan's ancestor wept tears of joy as well!
Over the past few days, he had constantly sought out old connections, hoping to find a way to contend with the Xu Clan's Qilin prodigy. Yet one after another, his old friends had seemed to vanish from the human world, all of them directly ignoring him.
It had left the Lin Clan's ancestor utterly bewildered, feeling that the clan's destruction was imminent.
Who would have thought—
The Lin Clan had produced a Qilin prodigy as well!
Strictly speaking, an inner disciple of the Limitless Sacred Land still had a certain gap compared to a true disciple of the Tyrant Blade Sect.
After all, the latter was an absolute core figure of the Tyrant Blade Sect, someone who could even contend for the position of sect master in the future!
Meanwhile, inner disciples of the Limitless Sacred Land were merely ordinary. They were still far from being qualified to compete for the position of sect master.
But it was enough.
With this connection, even if the Xu Clan's Qilin prodigy was a true disciple of the Tyrant Blade Sect, he would not dare lay a hand on the Lin Clan!
The Lin Clan was saved!
At that moment, Elder Zhu of the Limitless Sacred Land watched everything from the sky and could not help smiling faintly. Returning home in glory seemed to be everyone's dream.
Elder Zhu had also learned what had happened to the Lin Clan. His gaze turned thoughtfully toward a certain direction. In that direction, an aura at the Venerable Realm level seemed to flicker...
Elder Zhu narrowed his eyes. If it truly became necessary, he would make a move as well.
After all, Lin Feng's talent was now exceptionally high. Even great figures beyond the Venerable Realm had taken notice of him. His future was bound to be immeasurable!
Adding flowers to brocade was easy; sending charcoal in the snow was far too difficult.
Below.
Seeing the excited expressions on his elders' faces, Lin Feng felt a surge of emotion.
Sure enough, one still needed strength!
Without strength, the Lin Clan truly would have perished.
Just then, hurried footsteps sounded from outside the courtyard.
The footsteps were extremely urgent. Before long, two Lin Clan disciples ran over, their faces filled with panic.
"Clan Head, Clan Head!"
"Something terrible has happened! The Xu Clan sent people over, saying that all of our Lin Clan's higher-ups were to go discuss matters with them. But the people they sent were brutal, and many of our Lin Clan elders have been injured!"
"Clan Head, judging by their clothes, they do not seem to be from the Xu Clan. They may be disciples of the Tyrant Blade Sect!"
Upon hearing this.
Lin Zhan's body shook as he looked toward them.
The two Lin Clan disciples who had come over were also stunned, because they saw Lin Feng standing there. They both knew him. He was the clan head's son, the true young master, and when they were young, they had often followed at Lin Feng's heels.
Seeing Lin Feng's return, the two disciples hurriedly greeted him.
Lin Feng nodded slightly.
"The Xu Clan has gone too far!" Lin Zhan gritted his teeth. Was this how they came to invite them to discuss matters?
They had directly injured the Lin Clan elders. What did this mean?!
Arrogant—far too arrogant! Their madness had reached the extreme!
One Lin Clan disciple said bitterly, "Clan Head, those two disciples are incredibly strong. They should... should be above the Sea of Reincarnation Realm. They are very likely in the Palace of Destiny Realm!"
Palace of Destiny Realm!
Lin Zhan's pupils contracted slightly upon hearing that. The Lin Clan had only one Palace of Destiny Realm cultivator—the Lin Clan's ancestor.
He had not expected that two people sent over so casually would both be in the Palace of Destiny Realm. No wonder they could injure their elders!
Clearly, the Xu Clan did not possess such terrifying power. There was an overwhelming chance that they were disciples of the Tyrant Blade Sect!
At that moment, Lin Zhan looked toward the Lin Clan's ancestor. It seemed that only the ancestor could step forward now.
But the Lin Clan ancestor looked instead at Lin Feng!
Because he knew just how powerful Lin Feng was—at the very least, he was at the Dao Condensation Realm!
"Feng'er..." the Lin Clan ancestor said.
Lin Feng's expression remained calm. "Let's go take a look."
Yet he sneered inwardly.
Two Palace of Destiny Realm disciples dared come wreak havoc in his clan?
That was not how one went looking for death.
He had just emerged from seclusion, his strength now immensely formidable. His aura erupted once more, revealing an aura belonging to the Palace of Destiny Realm.
At that instant, everyone present felt it.
Their Lin Clan also had a Palace of Destiny Realm expert!
Afterward, Lin Feng walked at the very front, with Lin Zhan and the others following behind him!
At that moment, inside the Lin Clan's main hall.
Countless elders glared furiously at the two Tyrant Blade Sect disciples who had arrived.
The two Tyrant Blade Sect disciples were both lean in build, with a saber strapped to each of their backs. A thick bloody stench clung to them, as though their blades had been steeped in the blood of countless victims.
Both Tyrant Blade Sect disciples were incomparably wild and haughty, their gazes seeming ready to crush everything beneath them.
"Where is your Lin Clan's clan head? Why hasn't he come out yet?"
"Outrageous! The mere clan head of the Lin Clan has yet to show himself even after meeting the core disciples of our Tyrant Blade Sect. How arrogant!"
"Although Senior Brother Xu told us not to destroy the Lin Clan for the time being, I think killing a few of them to feed my treasured saber should not be a problem, right?"
The two disciples spoke one after another, their tones grim and chilling.
Many Lin Clan elders felt their bodies turn icy cold!
Were they going to start a slaughter?
The entire Lin Clan only had the Lin Clan ancestor at the Palace of Destiny Realm. The other elders were merely at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm.
If these two Tyrant Blade Sect disciples began killing without restraint, even the Lin Clan ancestor might not be able to stop them!
Forget stopping them—even if the Lin Clan ancestor fought them, he might not even be able to escape!
After all, he was advanced in years and his vital energy had declined. How could he compare with people whose blood and vitality were at their peak?
"Who cares? Let's make a move first." A cruel grin appeared on one Tyrant Blade Sect disciple's face. He removed the large saber from his back. With a boom, the heaven and earth's primordial energy poured into it, activating the blade!
The saber immediately trembled, as though a roar were rising from it. That roar was like a terrifying god of death, coming to claim lives!
The other Tyrant Blade Sect disciple merely watched calmly. The two had already agreed to take turns. Once the first finished killing, it would be his turn.
Boom!
In that instant.
The Tyrant Blade Sect disciple swung his saber in a horizontal slash. A dreadful blood-red radiance instantly appeared, as though it could devour souls and seize spirits!
Many Lin Clan elders were terrified. They wanted to retreat, only to discover that there was nowhere to retreat to!
That bloody saber light was like a life-reaping chain, seeking to swallow more than half the Lin Clan members present.
At that critical moment, a streak of sword light suddenly shot in from afar, as though it had crossed a river of stars to arrive!
