Lin Feng looked at the information on Lin Ye, his expression grave.
No, ever since he had awakened the system,
the fates of those around him had already changed.
The attributes on his father could at most indicate that the Wang Family would make a move against the Lin Family within the next few years.
It seemed he had to hurry.
But for now, obtaining his soul ring was the priority.
A look of determination appeared in Lin Feng's eyes as he nodded firmly.
"Feng'er?"
"Feng'er, what are you spacing out for?"
Seeing Lin Feng standing there without responding for so long, Lin Ye asked in confusion.
"Oh, okay."
"Father, I'll go prepare right away."
Coming back to his senses, Lin Feng hurriedly answered.
Outside Heaven Dou City.
Lin Ye led Lin Feng toward the Soul Hunting Forest.
Not every Soul Master needed to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain soul rings.
The Heaven Dou Empire had built many Soul Hunting Forests, raising soul beasts there to make it easier for Soul Masters from nearby cities to obtain soul rings.
Compared to the other Soul Hunting Forests, the one near Heaven Dou City covered a larger area.
There were even quite a few ten-thousand-year soul beasts within it.
Naturally, the fee to enter was also higher.
"Father, may I ask what connection there is between our Lin Family and the Wang Family?"
Lin Feng suddenly asked Lin Ye along the way.
Lin Ye froze for a moment when he heard the question, but his expression quickly returned to normal.
"Feng'er, why are you suddenly asking about the Wang Family today?"
Lin Ye asked sternly.
"I got into a fight with Wang Lei, the son of the Wang Family's marquis, at the academy."
"I was afraid I might bring trouble to the Lin Family."
Lin Feng deliberately put on a guilty expression.
"A fight? How did it go? Were you hurt?"
Lin Ye asked anxiously.
"No, I wasn't."
"I even punched him hard enough to make his nose bleed."
"It's good that you weren't hurt."
"The Wang Family is becoming more and more outrageous."
"Speaking of the Lin Family and the Wang Family..."
"We have to mention the war against the Star Luo Empire ten years ago, when your father led the soldiers under his command."
After bringing up what had happened ten years ago, Lin Feng's Father's gaze suddenly turned sharp, and his voice became much firmer.
"Ten years ago, you had not yet been born."
"At the time, the Lin Family and the Wang Family belonged to different factions within the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."
"The imperial family was plagued by constant internal disputes back then. It was nowhere near as peaceful as it is now."
"Once, when I led part of the army into a local war against the Star Luo Empire and became trapped..."
"The messenger I sent out returned and told me that imperial reinforcements would arrive within half a day."
"But who would have thought that the Wang Family would pull strings behind the scenes in the Ministry of War?"
"As a result, the reinforcements arrived two days late."
"In the end, I led three hundred light cavalrymen in a breakout."
"By the time we fought our way out of the encirclement, only six men remained by my side."
"Yet the several thousand soldiers trapped within were completely wiped out."
"But we had no evidence at the time. Several thousand lives were lost in that battle, Feng'er."
As Lin Ye spoke of those soldiers,
his eyes reddened, and tears kept welling up in his sockets.
Lin Feng's gaze also grew heavy, while a nameless fury churned within him.
"It is only a pity that I failed to find the evidence and seek justice for those several thousand soldiers."
"Hmph! Once I find the evidence, I will report this matter to His Majesty."
"I will have the Wang Family exterminated and give my soldiers the justice they deserve."
Mentioning the Wang Family, Lin Ye wiped at his moist eyes. His gaze burned with uncontrollable rage as he spoke sharply.
"Feng'er, you told me today that you fought with the Wang Family's son."
"Good fight!!!"
"Forget making his nose bleed. Even if you crippled him, your father would still stand behind you."
"A Wang Family that only knows how to trip people up from behind the battlefield cannot stir up any great waves."
"Feng'er, remember this."
"When you are out in the world, you must show the Lin Family's might whenever trouble arises. The entire Lin Family will stand behind you."
"Do you understand?"
Lin Ye completely shed his earlier demeanor. With a firm gaze and resolute words, he spoke to Lin Feng.
"I understand. Thank you, Father."
"Your son will remember it well."
After hearing his father's account, Lin Feng forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and analyzed the situation calmly.
So the Lin Family and the Wang Family had been bitter enemies for a long time.
Could the reason for the Lin Family's future misfortune be that his father found the evidence?
And that the Wang Family had then panicked and launched a desperate attack?
Lin Feng made wild guesses in his heart.
Not long after the two finished speaking,
Lin Feng's Father brought Lin Feng to the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest.
At that moment, an unfamiliar man suddenly walked toward the two of them.
"General Lin!"
The unfamiliar man bowed and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Oh, so it's Ge Long!"
"What brings you here?"
Lin Ye helped Ge Long up and said with a smile.
Ge Long? Wasn't he the Grand Marshal of the Heaven Dou Empire more than twenty years later?
Lin Feng's expression changed in surprise.
System, Attribute Scan.
Name: Ge Long Gender: Male Age: 30 Innate Soul Power: Rank 8 Martial Soul: Ya Zi (Top Tier) Soul Power: Rank 56 Attributes: Heaven Dou Great General (Green), Outstanding Talent (Purple)
It really was him.
Lin Feng was overjoyed.
He had not expected to run into him here.
Ge Long's talent was even better than Flender's and Liu Erlong's. He became a Rank 86 Soul Douluo in his fifties.
He was very likely to break through to become a Titled Douluo in the future.
And judging by the situation, his relationship with Lin Feng's Father was anything but ordinary. Lin Feng could build a closer relationship with him in the future.
"Ah, General Lin."
"I brought my son here to obtain a soul ring."
Ge Long pulled the little boy hiding behind him to the front.
"Ge Hu, quickly greet Uncle Lin."
Ge Long lowered his head slightly, a humble smile on his lips as he spoke respectfully.
"Hello, Uncle Lin."
"Hahahaha, good nephew."
"What a coincidence."
"I also brought my son, Lin Feng, here to hunt soul beasts."
With a smile on his face, Lin Ye turned his gaze toward Lin Feng.
"Hello, Uncle Ge. Hello, Big Brother Ge."
Lin Feng waved his little hand, blinking as he revealed an innocent smile.
Thank you, Rui, for the monthly pass!!!
Chapter 11: Boom Boom Boom? Purple! Purple! Green!
"Young Master Lin!"
Ge Long lightly clasped his hands before him, his body unconsciously leaning forward slightly.
"Hahaha!"
"We're all family, Ge Long. There's no need to be so formal."
"Just call him Lin Feng. This little fellow will need to rely on you in the future."
Looking at Ge Long, Lin Ye smiled and nodded in satisfaction.
"In that case, let us proceed together."
"Yes, General."
Along the way, Lin Feng used Attribute Scan on Ge Hu.
Ge Hu Age: 10
