"It seems that your Lineage have no intention of welcoming a guest from afar like me. Now that we have found what we were looking for, we are about to leave this place."
"If you're truly interested in making friends, why not do me and this young man a favor and let us pass?"
Lin Yu said with a smile, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
An invisible sense of oppression emanates from him as he speaks.
This is the sense of oppression that comes from being used to being in a position of power.
Lin Yu knew that the purpose of these Lineage coming here was nothing more than to get back the century-old immortal herb they possessed, and if possible, to also make some money off him.
However, these people from the Lineage were far too naive. They genuinely believed that Lin Yu and Feng Changge were easy targets for them to manipulate, and that they would not resist even if problems arose.
In fact, Lin Yu was prepared for this scene.
After all, Lin Yu had seen plenty of scoundrels like the Lineage in his daily life.
Such a person, when encountering a slightly stronger cultivator, might still speak a few words politely, pretending to be courteous while secretly seizing the rare and precious materials the other party has just obtained.
Of course, not every cultivator is so easy to deal with. If they encounter some tough opponents, the Lineage will try every means to get these cultivators to exchange some valuable magic treasures.
After all, in their eyes, everything on the land of the Twelve True Palaces belonged to their Lineage.
Although the Lineage are not usually on good terms, they made a surprisingly consistent choice when faced with this situation.
In short, the first step is to leave the magic treasure on the land of the Twelve True Palaces.
Keep them for now, then we'll consider how to distribute the magic items.
Lin Yu was prepared for the Lineage ' shameless behavior, but he did not expect them to be this shameless.
Judging from the way these guys acted, they didn't seem to recognize him and regarded him as an ordinary cultivator, the kind of person who could be provoked at will.
When faced with such people, the cultivators of the Lineage would be exceptionally tough, almost to the point of directly seizing the rare and precious materials.
"Hahaha, fellow Daoist, you jest. These Twelve True Palaces are all under the jurisdiction of our Lineage. Any cultivator or living being who comes to these Twelve True Palaces must report to the ancestors of our Lineage."
"You and the child next to you entered without communicating with any of our aristocratic families. We've already been quite polite by not treating you as uninvited guests."
"If you two are not willing to cooperate with us and summon the magic weapon, then we are essentially planning to forcibly take it away."
The cultivator leading the Lineage smiled and looked at Lin Yu and Feng Changge with disdain.
However, that sense of disdain was somewhat toned down when it was directed at Feng Changge.
After all, it's obvious to anyone with eyes that Fengchang Pavilion belongs to the ancient Phoenix clan. Even if they aren't genuine phoenixes, they at least possess phoenix bloodlines.
Although this meant that Fengchang Pavilion belonged to the category of demonic beasts, the people of the Lineage knew that such demonic beasts were not easy to deal with, so they focused their provocative gazes on Lin Yu.
Unfortunately, what they didn't expect was that, compared to Fengchang Pavilion, Lin Yu's place was a truly impenetrable wall.
The consequences of offending Lin Yu might be more serious than offending the entire ancient phoenix clan.
If Lin Yu wanted to, he could easily raze the entire Twelve True Palaces to the ground.
In just a few words, the cultivators from the Lineage had already revealed their true colors as scoundrels.
Because of the frequent battles among the Lineage over the years, their core figures have changed frequently, which has resulted in no one recognizing Lin Yu.
If the members of the Lineage had recognized Lin Yu from the beginning, they probably wouldn't have recklessly blocked his way here.
Hearing what the cultivators from the Lineage said, Lin Yu almost burst out laughing. Did these people really think he was a complete idiot?
They actually dared to spout such arrogant words, claiming that the entire Twelve Palaces were the property of the Lineage.
Lin Yu sneered and said, "I never knew that these few acres of wasteland had become the territory under the jurisdiction of your Lineage?"
"According to my writings, this place has always been unclaimed territory. Anyone can come and go as they please. What I take here is none of your business, and you have no right to interfere."
Do you really think this is my first time stepping into these Twelve True Palaces?
As he spoke, Lin Yu's voice grew colder and colder. Some cultivators simply lacked lessons and discipline.
If they received more warnings from stronger individuals, they wouldn't be so arrogant.
Although most of these Twelve True Palaces are the territory of the Lineage, Lin Yu is now living in an uncontrolled land. He has taken some naturally occurring treasures, and these people dare to make a move. They have truly gone too far.
Lin Yu had already given them enough chances, but the leading cultivators of those Lineage were simply courting death.
He looked at Lin Yu and chuckled twice. In his view, his Lineage held an outstanding position in the Twelve True Palaces. No matter how powerful a cultivator was, they would not dare to disobey them once they came to the Twelve True Palaces.
But now Lin Yu dares to speak so arrogantly to them; he must have lost his mind.
"You've been to the Twelve True Palaces? Hahaha, how laughable! What you called unclaimed land that didn't belong to our Ten Great Lineage is now the joint property of our Lineage."
"Alright, fellow Daoist, I advise you to be honest and leave the treasure that doesn't belong to you."
"The weather's nice today, we really don't want to fight you! Just leave your things obediently, and leave behind the rare and precious treasures you're carrying, and we'll grant you a complete corpse!"
At this point, the other cultivators who followed him also burst into arrogant laughter.
This statement is clearly self-contradictory. They had already made their intention to rob very clear before, but now it seems they don't just intend to rob, they also intend to kill them.
Upon hearing this, Feng Changge was even more furious. These guys were truly lawless, taking advantage of the fact that he spent more time in the Twelve True Palaces to try and steal their fruits.
After holding back for a moment, Feng Changge finally couldn't hold back any longer and shouted, "You bastards, have you no shame? I've never seen anything as shameless as you!"
"This is clearly a lawless place! How dare you say that!"
