At the Saint Bone Mountain, Cherished Heart Abode.
Yue Zhengrong led Yue Shaochang to the thatched hut of the sage Zhong Yu.
As soon as the two arrived, Yue Linglong also rushed over, looking excited.
Yue Shaochang wanted to scold his daughter, but he held back.
At this moment, Lin Heng naturally sat down in the living room of the thatched hut, enjoying the fragrant tea provided by the Yue Imperial Lineage.
He looked relaxed and at ease, showing no sign of having just experienced a major battle.
"Young man, you are truly remarkable!"
Yue Zhengrong said with a smile, "After hearing the commotion, we rushed over as fast as we could, but before we could even offer any assistance, the young man had already finished the fight!"
Lin Heng could tell, of course, that this was just polite talk!
"Amazing, absolutely amazing!"
Yue Shaochang exclaimed in admiration, "With a single move, the Innate Sword Physique of the High-Stage God Emperor Realm has collapsed. It's unbelievable! I admire you!"
His praise was truly heartfelt!
"Master said long ago that even High-Stage God Emperor can't cause much trouble!"
Yue Linglong looked proud; her master was amazing, so of course the disciple could be proud too!
"Here, my disciple, this sword is for you!"
Lin Heng handed Yu Tianjun's longsword to Yue Linglong, saying, "I have forcibly erased the blood spirit and sword intent that Yu Tianjun left in the sword. This sword is now ownerless!"
He can now wield Saint Artifact; the Yalong Holy Sword and the Shadowless Needle are enough. He doesn't need any attack magic weapons of Quasi-Saint Artifact level!
Mother Liu Ling'er has the Seven Stars Sky-Rending Saber and the Heavenly Wind Boots, so her equipment isn't bad!
Moreover, Lin Heng recently checked in at the Saint's Hut and obtained several Quasi-Saint Artifact!
If they didn't take on any disciples, these Quasi-Saint Artifact would be left idle and wasted if it were just the mother and son!
"Thank you for the reward, Master!"
Yue Linglong bowed deeply in gratitude, overjoyed!
Yue Zhengrong and Yue Shaochang were extremely envious, especially Yue Zhengrong, who, as the ancestor of the Yue Imperial Lineage and a Mid-Stage God Emperor of the Saint Martial Sect, did not possess Quasi-Saint Artifact!
This is one of the advantages of having a powerful master!
He can casually bestow Quasi-Saint Artifact upon his disciples!
"Young man, that long needle magic weapon you just used must be Saint Artifact, right?"
Yue Zhengrong kindly reminded, " Saint Artifact shouldn't be exposed casually. Otherwise, not only will God Venerable be tempted and have ulterior motives, but even Saint Realm expert might have the idea of snatching it if they hear about it!"
" Saint Realm are not easy to encounter!"
Lin Heng replied, "Apart from those who have just advanced, most Saint Realm experts already possess Saint Artifact, so there's no need for them to steal others' Saint Artifact!"
Despite saying that, Lin Heng understood the principle of "possessing a treasure is a crime," and he could also tell that Yue Zhengrong was genuinely acting out of good intentions!
" Saint Realm are indeed very rare to encounter!"
Yue Shaochang continued, "Even Saint Realm experts rarely travel in ordinary star fields; they usually stay in or around the Primal Secret Realm!"
This was the first time Lin Heng had ever heard of the Primal Secret Realm!
A place where Saint Realm experts are willing to gather and stay must be extraordinary. With his current strength, it's best for him to keep his distance!
At his cultivation speed, it won't be long before he's fearless of the Saint Realm!
"Young brother, was the Star Saint Bone you used to block Yu Tianjun's ultimate attack?"
Yue Zhengrong asked curiously.
"That's right!"
Lin Heng nodded.
"So the legend was true! There really is a sacred relic on Saint Bone Mountain!"
Yue Linglong said in surprise.
"This piece of Star Saint Bone that I possess is not the one left behind by the Saint Zhong Yu, but rather comes from another source!"
Lin Heng said.
Is there another source?
Yue Zhengrong and Yue Shaochang exchanged a glance, clearly disbelieving!
The Star Saint Bone can only come from the Star Divine Body of the Saint Realm. Over countless years, only one Star Divine Body has been born: Zhong Yu!
Lin Heng could tell that Yue Zhengrong and Yue Shaochang didn't believe him, but naturally he wouldn't explain too much!
After leaving Cherished Heart Abode, we returned to the Yue Imperial City.
Inside the Upright Heart Hall of the Imperial Palace, Yue Shaochang asked Yue Zhengrong, "Ancestor, is it possible for us to help that mother and son reach a reconciliation with the Saint Martial Sect?"
"Oh?"
Yue Zhengrong frowned.
" Lin Heng has effectively crippled three God Emperor of the Wuji Sword Sect today, including Yu Tianjun. The Wuji Sword Sect and the Saint Martial Sect are mortal enemies. Based on this alone, Lin Heng and his mother may have a chance to reach a reconciliation with the Saint Martial Sect!"
Yue Shaochang explained, "Furthermore, Lin Heng is incredibly strong. If the higher-ups of the Saint Martial Sect find out, they might suppress the Lei Family..."
"Let alone the possibility that they can't reconcile, even if it were possible, we can't facilitate it!"
Yue Zhengrong waved his hand, interrupting, "How can we let such a good opportunity to wipe out the Lei Family slip by? Even if we want to reconcile, we have to wait until Lei Biyang is killed!"
"However, Lei Biyang will most likely come with his master. What if Lin Heng can't defeat that God Venerable expert..."
Yue Shaochang was still very worried.
" Lin Heng possesses a Saint Artifact needle; if Lei Biyang's master is unprepared, he might suffer severe injuries right from the start!"
Yue Zhengrong squinted and said, "In this way, Lin Heng will have a chance to defeat him. Even if he still can't win, he should be able to escape! Of course, even if Lin Heng and his mother ultimately meet with misfortune, as long as Linglong's Innate Dao Embryo isn't exposed prematurely, the higher-ups of the Saint Martial Sect won't target our Yue Imperial Lineage, since we didn't help Lin Heng and his mother!"
"Too!"
Yue Shaochang nodded.
"Most importantly, what if Lin Heng had attacked Lei Biyang with Saint Artifact instead of God Venerable expert right from the start?"
Yue Zhengrong sneered, " Lei Biyang will definitely be killed in one blow. In that case, the Lei Family will exist in name only!"
Even now, he deeply hates the Lei Family!
As prominent Lineage within the Saint Martial Sect, the Lei Family's reckless actions on Blade Wind Star, nearly harming the Yue Imperial Lineage's Innate Dao Embryo, are truly despicable!
"Sigh! We just emphasized the power of God Venerable expert again, but Lin Heng still shows no sign of leaving!"
Yue Shaochang sighed, "A piece of Star Saint Bone can withstand Yu Tianjun's full-force attack, but it can't withstand the full-force attack of God Venerable! Lin Heng can't unleash the full power of that long needle Saint Artifact. Even if he succeeds in his sneak attack, it's unlikely he can kill Lei Biyang's master in one blow, let alone seriously injure him!"
"We don't need to worry about these things!"
Yue Zhengrong instructed, "Send men to keep a close eye on Linglong. Don't let her leave the palace so easily again, like she did today, and run off to Cherished Heart Abode!"
"Um!"
Yue Shaochang also knew that Yue Linglong was of great significance to the entire Yue Imperial Lineage and could not afford to make any mistakes!
Cherished Heart Abode, the shrine of the saint.
Lin Heng was extremely relaxed.
He knew that even if Ye Hongchen and the other two kept teleporting non-stop, it would still take them quite a while to reach Wuji Star!
If a God Venerable expert from the Wuji Sword Sect wanted to attack, they would also need some time to travel by teleportation!
Lin Heng let Ye Hongchen and the other two go so that he could see the reaction of the Wuji Sword Sect. If God Venerable expert from the Wuji Sword Sect came to kill them, it would be a situation he would be happy to see!
Now that he has enough strength to deal with God Venerable expert, he's too lazy to run around and hide anymore!
It's perfectly fine to just wait here for them to feed kills!
The Wuji Sword Sect is unlikely to give up easily. If they were to actually attack Wuji Star, it would pose a considerable risk to Lin Heng, since that is the Wuji Sword Sect's stronghold!
Letting Ye Hongchen and his two companions return without revealing too much of their hand is like fishing!
They've lured the most powerful experts from the Wuji Sword Sect here to fight!
