Lin Zhentian's Perfect Plan (Seeking Reads, Seeking Subscriptions)

Before the Lin Family's people could reply.

An elder of the Huangpu Family immediately stepped forward.

His face was full of a fawning smile as he said, "Heh heh, whatever you need done, our Huangpu Family would also be happy to serve."

The moment the rest of the Huangpu Family heard that, they immediately volunteered.

A Nirvana Realm expert was enough to make them lower themselves and use every method they had to win him over.

As long as they succeeded.

No matter what price they had to pay.

They would still feel they had profited.

"Exactly, exactly! Our Huangpu Family is also one of the Four Great Clans of the Great Yan Dynasty. We're no worse than the Lin Clan!"

"That's right. Whatever the Lin Clan can do, our Huangpu Family can do too."

"With just one word from you, our Huangpu Family will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

After hearing these words.

The people of the Lin Clan refused to be outdone.

Lin Fan went straight for the face with a hard opening blow. "The patriarch of the Huangpu Family is only Half-Step Nirvana. What does he have to compare with our Lin Family?"

Lin Feng chimed in, "Elder Lin Fan is right. Our Lin Family has a genuine Nirvana Realm expert!"

Huangpu Ling sneered. "To be honest, our patriarch has already broken through to the Nirvana Realm!"

"Keep bragging. You think everyone is like this young master here, a heaven-sent genius who became a Nirvana expert at such a young age?"

With those words, Lin Fan had both stepped on the Huangpu Family and elevated Chen Xuan.

It could be called killing two birds with one stone!

The two of them began arguing back and forth.

But neither dared to go too far.

Chen Xuan shouted, "All of you, shut the hell up! Whoever dares cut in without permission dies!"

After everyone had shut up.

Chen Xuan turned to look at Huangpu Ling and asked with interest, "Any request I make can be done?"

"Don't worry, we'll definitely do our utmost!"

Huangpu Ling smiled, bowing and scraping.

Chen Xuan nodded in satisfaction.

Then he said indifferently, "Fine. In that case, all of you from the Huangpu Family, slit your own throats to atone for your crimes!"

"No problem, it's just slitting our throats. Wait, what did you just say? S-slit our throats?"

Huangpu Ling thought he had misheard.

He wanted us to slit our throats?

That couldn't be right!

How had it suddenly become a matter of making us slit our throats?

The Lin Clan members were also dumbfounded.

Are you sure you're not joking?

Chen Xuan nodded with a serious expression. "You heard me right. Slit your throats."

Then he looked at the Lin Clan members. "Of course, if you can kill every last one of them, the Sect Treasure below will be yours."

What? Kill the people of the Huangpu Clan?

And then get the treasure!

What... what was going on?

The Lin Family members were all stunned.

But very soon, someone came to their senses.

If they did as Chen Xuan said.

They might still be able to beg for a slim chance of survival.

If they did not do as he said.

Then it was very possible that they, too, would be buried here.

Life or death.

It all rested on a single thought!

And so.

Lin Langtian was the first to make a decision, Yuan Power surging wildly from within him. "Everyone, don't force us to act!"

Ding. Lin Langtian generated decisive killing intent + cold emotions. Emotion Points +100

Huangpu Ling questioned him, his face deathly pale. "Lin Langtian, don't you understand that when the lips are gone, the teeth grow cold?"

"Enough nonsense. Die!"

Lin Langtian's figure shot out explosively.

The rest of the Lin Clan also went all out.

Naturally, the members of the Huangpu Clan could not possibly just surrender without a fight.

And just like that...

A great battle was on the verge of erupting.

As the instigator, Chen Xuan stood in midair like an untroubled wanderer, watching the battle from there.

Qingyang Town.

The Lin Family.

Lin Zhentian returned, utterly exhausted.

Lin Ken hurriedly went up to meet him. "Father! How did it go?"

"Father, was the Lin Clan willing to help?"

Lin Mang also desperately wanted to know.

Lin Zhentian said nothing, merely waved his hand.

Then he walked toward the main hall.

Lin Xiao looked at his old father and suddenly realized that his back seemed much more bent than before.

From his desolate expression, Lin Xiao knew.

Lin Zhentian's trip this time had definitely not gone smoothly at all.

And it was just as he had expected.

Several months ago.

Lin Zhentian had ridden dozens of fast horses to death.

Only then had he reached Lin City.

He had thought everything would go smoothly.

Who would have thought...

When he stated that he wished to see the clan leader...

He was actually refused outright by the guards.

This, too, had been within his expectations.

So he instead asked to see the Grand Elder of the Lin Clan.

But he was stopped by a gray-haired old man named Lin Zheng.

Lin Zheng snapped in displeasure, "Who are you? Shouting and clamoring here—what kind of behavior is that?"

Lin Zhentian also recognized him and knew that he was the Second Elder of the Lin Family.

His status was not ordinary.

He was not someone Lin Zhentian could afford to offend.

Although he was extremely anxious...

He could only force himself to remain calm and say, "Elder Lin Zheng, I am Lin Zhentian from the Yan City branch family. I have an urgent matter of the utmost importance and must see the Grand Elder. Please make an exception."

See the Grand Elder?

Lin Zheng sized Lin Zhentian up and down.

He felt that the name sounded somewhat familiar.

Then he suddenly remembered—many years ago...

Wasn't the person Lin Langtian had crippled Lin Xiao from the Yan City branch family?

What?

Was he here to settle old scores?

As if you're worthy?

Lin Zheng immediately sneered. "A mere branch family member thinks he's worthy of seeing the Grand Elder of the Lin Clan?"

"Elder Lin Zheng, this matter is of great importance. I must meet the Grand Elder and report it to him personally! There can be no delay!"

Lin Zhentian was extremely anxious.

Lin Zheng gave a cold snort. "Heh, never mind a branch family—even in the Lin Clan, there's nothing I, Lin Zheng, am not allowed to know!"

He was very displeased with Lin Zhentian.

He was the Second Elder of the Lin Clan, after all.

What?

Was he not worthy of knowing?

If that was the case...

Then go back where you came from!

"This... All right, here's what happened..."

Seeing this, Lin Zhentian could only tell Lin Zheng the whole story from beginning to end.

He hoped Lin Zheng could help pass the message on so they could prepare for this crisis in advance.

Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng only mocked him.

He even said that some nobody had actually been described by Lin Zhentian as a peerless expert capable of threatening the Lin Clan.

The Yan City branch family had long since lost any need to exist.

Taking advantage of the situation, he even had Lin Zhentian driven out of Lin City.

He also told the guards not to allow Lin Zhentian into the city. Anyone who disobeyed would be killed without mercy!

With things having come to this...

Lin Zhentian had no choice but to return home and think of some other way.

"Father, say something! You're killing us here!"

Looking at Lin Zhentian, who remained silent...

Lin Mang was so anxious he could hardly stand it.

Lin Ken was the same.

Lin Zhentian let out a long sigh. "Perhaps Heaven means to wipe out our line."

Hearing this, Lin Mang's expression changed at once.

His face filled with incomparable panic.

A moment later...

Lin Mang brought up the old matter again. "Father, doesn't that man just want to marry Qingtan? Sacrificing Qingtan alone in exchange for the protection of a powerful expert isn't a bad deal."

"Lin Mang! What nonsense are you spouting?"

Lin Xiao was so angry he did not even call him Second Brother anymore, addressing him by name outright.

"Am I wrong?"

"You..."

Lin Xiao had just been about to say something...

When Lin Zhentian shouted angrily, "What are you arguing for?"

Only after everyone quieted down...

Did Lin Zhentian continue, "There are still several months before the clan competition. There is still plenty of time. This old man has his own arrangements!"

Lin Mang was overjoyed. "Father, have you already thought of a foolproof plan?"

Lin Ken was also wild with delight.

But Lin Xiao frowned.

PS: Chapter 29's revision didn't pass review, so I revised it again. It's still under review. Once it passes, I'll notify everyone promptly in the latest chapter.
