Your Son Has Returned, Breaking the Lifespan Shackles Curse!

Inside the palace.

Lin An strolled through the area, though the surrounding area was heavily guarded, with many powerful experts at the King Realm among the guards.

Even as Lin An walked right past the other person, the other person didn't notice him at all.

"It's much more magnificent than when I left."

"The formation I set up back then has not been used. It seems that the palace has not been attacked during my absence."

As Lin An walked, he looked around the palace before him and headed deeper into the palace grounds.

At this moment, on the training ground, Li Xiyun had just finished recounting Lin An An's deeds from back then.

Seeing this, Lin Yue served the tea that had been poured earlier, and Li Xiyun smiled, nodded, accepted it, and took a sip.

"Wow, Mommy, Big Brother is amazing!"

"It's a pity we weren't born when our eldest brother was alive, otherwise we would have met him," Lin Xi said with some regret.

She had heard many historical legends since she was a child, but no matter whose legend it was, none of them were as impressive as her older brother's.

After all, his elder brother is the only Sovereign Realm expert in the entire Myriad Spirits Realm in thousands of years.

Furthermore, it was because of his elder brother that the three great empires of the past were overthrown, Supreme Peace Empire, which now unifies the entire Myriad Spirits Realm, was established.

If it weren't for her elder brother, she would at most be the daughter of a city lord, and only the daughter of a city lord in a lower city.

She would never have been like this before, becoming a princess of the Myriad Spirits Realm, enjoying resources and benefits that others could hardly imagine.

That's why she had always admired her older brother, whom she had never met, since she was a child.

Unfortunately, her elder brother went to another, more powerful world, and she could never see him again.

"Your older brother will definitely come back once he's done with his work," Li Xiyun said with a smile.

Lin Xi pouted. This wasn't the first time her mother had said this, but so many years had passed, and her older brother still hadn't finished his work.

"Mother, do you think my older brother will like me if he comes back?"

Lin Xi spoke with some trepidation. After all, her older brother had been away from home for many years. If he suddenly returned home and found that there were now younger siblings, would he have other ideas?

Lin Yue, standing to the side, also turned his gaze to his mother, feeling a similar sense of worry.

Hearing Lin Xi's words and seeing Lin Yue's worried expression, Li Xiyun and Lin Xiao couldn't help but smile.

"You guys think your eldest brother is a child like you?"

Li Xiyun tapped Lin Xi's forehead; An'er was far more mature than these two children.

Moreover, when An'er left, she specifically instructed them to have more children, but it was ultimately not something that could be discussed with the two little ones.

"Mother, those two are just children."

Just as Li Xiyun finished speaking, a voice suddenly rang out.

Upon hearing this voice, both Li Xiyun and Lin Xiao froze.

They all turned around to look at the source of the sound.

When she saw that figure, that smiling figure in the sunlight, Li Xiyun trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"An'er, is that you?"

Li Xiyun cried out, her voice choked with sobs.

Her voice was soft, as if she were afraid that if she raised it any louder, the sound would dissipate with the wind and turn into her fantasy.

Lin An didn't speak, but stepped out of the sunlight with a smile, came to the two of them, bowed and said, "Mother, Father, your son has returned."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiyun finally couldn't hold back anymore. She tightly grasped Lin An Lin An's hands, feeling the warmth of his touch, and two streams of tears flowed down her cheeks. "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Lin An gently wiped away his mother's tears, "Your son is unfilial, I have caused you worry."

Although Lin Xiao didn't say anything, his eyes were slightly red, and he simply patted Lin An's shoulder with his large hand.

As for Lin Xi and Lin Yue, they immediately recognized who the person in front of them was.

As they were filled with excitement, their eyes were fixed on Lin An.

Is this their eldest brother?

That legendary elder brother?

They never expected that their beloved older brother would actually return.

After a while, Li Xiyun calmed down and then remembered that there were still two little ones.

"An'er, this is your second brother Lin Yue and your third sister Lin Xi. They are twins, a boy and a girl."

Li Xiyun looked at Lin Yue and Lin Xi as she spoke, "You two little rascals, aren't you always talking about your big brother? Now that he's back, aren't you going to greet him?"

Hearing their mother's words, Lin Yue and Lin Xi also realized what was happening.

"Greetings, elder brother."

The two bowed respectfully.

Although they were extremely curious about this legendary elder brother, and kept talking about wanting to meet him.

But now that they actually met, they became quite reserved. Even Lin Xi, who is usually carefree, became serious and proper.

Lin An smiled and looked at the two of them.

With just one glance, I could tell their personalities apart.

Lin Yue bowed quite formally. Although there was excitement and trepidation on his face, his expression was quite calm, and his personality was clearly quite composed.

Lin Xi, the younger sister, though she also bowed respectfully, had her eyes sizing him up like a thief, clearly indicating a free-spirited person.

"Second brother and sister-in-law, you're too kind. When I left, you weren't even born yet, so I didn't prepare any birth gifts for you."

Lin An smiled and took out a long sword and a bell. "Consider this a gift for you two little ones."

Both of these are Immortal Rank weapons, but given their strength, they definitely can't use them.

Therefore, he has already set a seal, which will be continuously unsealed as the two people's cultivation levels increase. It will definitely be no problem to use it when they reach the Immortal Realm.

Upon seeing the gift, Lin Xi was the first to react.

"Thank you, brother."

Lin Xi took the bell, her face filled with excitement.

Although Lin Yue was usually composed, his eyes lit up when he saw the knife.

Although he was a prince and the royal treasury contained many treasures, this knife was the best he had ever seen.

"Thank you, brother."

Lin Yue thanked him and respectfully accepted the long sword, but his face showed excitement.

It's not the right time now, otherwise he would definitely want to give the knife a good test.

Lin An looked at the two of them with a smile on his face. Although they were both fourteen years old, in his eyes they were indeed no different from children.

"Alright, alright, your eldest brother is finally back, so you all better behave yourselves for now."

When Li Xiyun said this, she was mainly looking at Lin Xi, since Lin Yue was very sensible.

"Don't worry, Mother, I'm the best girl, I definitely won't make Big Brother angry," Lin Xi said with a grin.

Li Xiyun shook her head helplessly, but didn't say anything more.

The group then entered the main hall, where Lin Xiao had already instructed his men to prepare a meal, and various delicacies were already laid out on the table.

After everyone was seated, they began chatting happily.

At the dinner table, Li Xiyun kept putting food on Lin An's plate.

Although at their level, they could go without food or drink without any problem, what they ate was not food, but kinship.

Lin An didn't stand on ceremony and devoured the delicacies while chatting with everyone.

Lin An mainly spoke, recounting his experiences outside over the years, naturally only reporting the good news and not the bad.

"By the way, your maternal grandfather also went to the Domain, as did Zheng Tang and the others. Did you see them?" Lin Xiao asked.

"I've met my maternal grandfather and eldest uncle. I made arrangements for them before I left the Domain, so I don't think anything will happen."

Lin An said, "As for Zheng Tang and the others, I didn't see them. I should have already left the Domain by then. But don't worry, I left some means behind, and they will reunite with Grandpa."

"That's good. With you taking care of them, I think your grandfather and the others will be fine in the Domain." Lin Xiao nodded.

The group continued chatting, and the meal lasted for more than an hour before finally ending.

After the meal, Lin An and Lin Xiao went to the Imperial Study.

"How long are you going to stay this time? When do you plan to leave?" Lin Xiao asked.

He knew that his son was no ordinary person, and that the other party would not stay in the Myriad Spirits Realm for long.

The other party will roam freely in a much wider world.

"It's still unknown; it could take anywhere from ten years to over a hundred years."

Lin An shook his head.

Lin Xiao frowned. "Is there something important to you in this Myriad Spirits Realm?"

Otherwise, the other party would have no reason to waste so much time in the Myriad Spirits Realm.

"Yes, there are many small worlds outside the Myriad Spirits Realm. I have returned this time for the origins of these small worlds. I will begin my seclusion in a few days."

Lin An didn't hide anything and told him directly.

Lin Xiao suddenly realized that the origins of these small worlds must be very important to his son, who was able to bring him back in person.

"I know you are powerful now, but if you need anything, just tell me, and the entire Supreme Peace Empire will help you," Lin Xiao said.

"Father, rest assured, I will not hesitate to ask if you need anything."

Lin An nodded with a smile, "By the way, where are my cousins Li Qing and Li Wei? I haven't seen them."

"Those two lads are currently in seclusion in the Rules Secret Realm, and they're probably about to break through to the King Realm Ninth Grade. They'll set off for the Domain then," Lin Xiao said.

Lin An's mind stirred, and sure enough, he discovered that Li Qing and Li Wei were in seclusion within the Rules Secret Realm, and their auras had already reached the limit of the King Realm Eighth Grade. It wouldn't be long before they broke through to the King Realm Ninth Grade.

Then Lin An flicked his finger, and a stream of light flew out, then simultaneously entered the bodies of the two people.

Li Qing and Li Wei, who were cultivating, paused, and then felt the power within their bodies begin to surge, starting to break through to the King Realm Ninth Grade.

Seeing this, Lin An withdrew his gaze, offering only a small assistance rather than forcing the seedlings to grow too fast.

"Those two boys have been clamoring to go to the Domain for a long time, but your mother and I are still worried, so we're letting them break through to the King Realm Ninth Grade before they go."

Lin Xiao sighed as he spoke, "It's a pity that your mother and I are in this position, otherwise we would also like to go and see the Domain."

"Father, there's no need to rush. My second brother has grown up and will be able to take over in a few years. Then Father and Mother will be able to go to the Domain," Lin An said with a smile.

"Isn't that still a few years away? Although Yue'er is still young, it will probably take at least ten years for him to break through to the King Realm."

Lin Xiao said that Lin Yue's talent was not as good as Lin An's. Even with the current resource supply of the Supreme Peace Empire, it would still take him so long to break through to the King Realm.

If Lin An had had such abundant resources back then, it would probably have taken him only about a year to break through to the King Realm from the start of his cultivation.

The throne of the Supreme Peace Empire will definitely be passed to Lin Yue.

As for Lin An, Lin Xiao hadn't considered it; the throne of the Supreme Peace Empire was merely a constraint for him.

I'm not good enough for you.

"That will be soon. Moreover, upon my return this time, I also intend to break the Lifespan Shackles of the Myriad Spirits Realm. At that time, the lifespan of the King Realm expert will be at least ten thousand years," Lin An said.

Break the Lifespan Shackles in the Myriad Spirits Realm?

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao was not pleased; instead, he frowned deeply.

"Does Father think it's not feasible?" Lin An asked.

"It's not that it's impossible, but the national conditions don't allow it."

Lin Xiao sighed, "Although the Supreme Peace Empire is thriving now, I know that no matter how powerful it is in the Myriad Spirits Realm Supreme Peace Empire, it will eventually have its limits."

"I didn't realize it before, but with the development of the Supreme Peace Empire over the years and the increasing number of powerful individuals, I've come to realize that the Myriad Spirits Realm is still too small."

"It's not that the Myriad Spirits Realm is too small, but rather that its resources are insufficient to support more powerful individuals."

"If this trend continues, it will likely be only a hundred years or so before internal conflicts arise within the Supreme Peace Empire due to competition for resources..."

Lin Xiao's face also showed helplessness. When he ascended the throne, he only thought about making the Supreme Peace Empire stronger, but he did not consider these issues.

It's because he lacked experience back then and didn't realize these problems, but now that he wants to change them, it's going to be quite troublesome.

We can't just forbid other people from practicing.

Moreover, the Supreme Peace Empire in the Myriad Spirits Realm is now the only dominant power, and there are no Sin Beast to threaten it; it has no external enemies whatsoever.

It's impossible to control the number of powerful individuals.

If Lin An were to remove the Lifespan Shackles, the number of the King Realm would increase, leading to even greater trouble.

Hearing what Lin Xiao said, Lin An also smiled.

My father, having been emperor for so many years, has indeed broadened his horizons considerably.

"Father, you can rest assured, I will handle this."

Lin An smiled and said that he had considered these issues from the beginning and naturally had solutions.

"The solution is simple: the Myriad Spirits Realm can't accommodate so many King Realm, but the other Domain can."

Lin An said, "At that time, I will open a passage between the Myriad Spirits Realm and the Domain. The passage will be controlled by the royal family, and whether going there or coming back, it will require the royal family's consent."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao's eyes lit up.

Once a passage connecting different Domain is established, allowing unrestricted movement, the problem of insufficient resources in the Myriad Spirits Realm can be solved.

Although there are many King Realm in the Myriad Spirits Realm, even if they were all thrown into the Domain, it wouldn't amount to much.

"It's good that you have plans," Lin Xiao said.

The two then chatted for a while, during which Li Qing and Li Wei also completed their breakthroughs.

Lin An teleported the two of them over. Upon seeing Lin An, they were both extremely excited and said a lot.

Lin An stayed in the palace for three days before leaving.

Let's break free from the Lifespan Shackles first.

Lin An looked toward the Myriad Spirits Realm, where he could clearly sense the lingering power of Jialuo Moye.

Although this power is not strong, it is enough to restrict the lifespan of all living beings in the Myriad Spirits Realm.

Most importantly, as long as this power exists, Jialuo Moye will eventually be resurrected and return.

However, this was not a problem for Lin An.

With a wave of his hand, a force enveloped the entire Myriad Spirits Realm.

With a light clench of his fist, the power of Jialuo Moye's curse was rapidly drawn out and gathered in his palm.

"It's a little less, but it's better than nothing."

Lin An looked at the curse power, which was no thicker than a hair in his palm, and with a surge of his own essence, he directly refined it.

At the same time, many beings in the Myriad Spirits Realm also sensed the changes within themselves.
