There were three men sitting in the meeting hall.


They were Lin Tianlong, the leader of Westbrook Lin, Lin Nianshan, the leader of Floating-cloud Lin, and Lin Pingdu, the leader of Flying-peak Lin.


There were all powerful and influential men in Tao Insight Realm. Each of them was in charge of a branch of Lin’s lineage.


Today, they gathered together rarely and their looks were the same gloomy.


They had learned everything happened on Heart-cleansing Peak from Xiao Fengru. They didn’t expect that witless young man dared to refuse their proposals!


What annoyed them most was that the young man abolished their Guest Deacons’ cultivation. Such arrogant behavior assaulted their dignity completely!


“A bunch of rubbish, get out of here!”


Finally, Lin Tianlong, the leader of Westbrook Lin, who was sitting in the middle, opened his mouth. His voice sounded like thunder in the spacious hall.


Xiao Fengru and other two guest deacons suddenly became extremely miserable. They got up from the ground and left in a dejected way.


Apparently, they were useless men after losing their cultivation!


It could be predicted that when they leave the conference hall, all the status and worship they once enjoyed would be gone.


This was the revenge from Lin Xun. Although he didn’t kill them, he abolished their cultivation, which was cruel for them than killing them!


“He is deliberately against us.”


Taking a deep breath, Lin Tianlong longed his faced and opened his mouth. His eyes were full of chills.


“How could a young man win a tough fight against us? He is really fearless and ignorant.”


On the other side, Lin Nianshan, the leader of Floating-cloud Lin, sneered.


“What are you going to do?”


However, Lin Pingdu, the leader of Flying-peak Lin, seemed quite calm and said, “This young man controlled the Seal of Heart-cleansing and took charge of Heart-cleansing Peak. We have no way to make him hand over his power.”


As soon as these words came out, Lin Tianlong and Lin Nianshan’s faces became gloomier.


This was really a tough problem. If Lin Xun was killed, Heart-cleansing Peak would be taken away by the imperial family. Lin Family would completely lose it in that way.


But it was hard to let collateral clans return to Heart-cleansing Peak and take charge of the power in a proper way if Lin Xun was still alive!


They three were nominally the leaders of the three branches of Lin Family, but none of them was a patriarch of the whole Lin Family!


This was the difference in power.


“Tianlong, you are always resourceful. How do you think about it?”


Lin Pingdu looked at Lin Tianlong, who sat in the center.


“It’s easy to deal with him if he is alone. But now there is a strong Tao Insight Realm man around him. It’s a bit tricky.”


Lin Tianlong frowned, “We may be able to kill this strongman by begging any of our three ancestors. But the most troublesome thing is that even if we kill this strongman, we still have nothing to do with him if that boy would rather die than surrender to us.”


The other two were suddenly silent.


What bothered them most was the ownership of Heart-cleansing Peak. Lin Xun was the only qualified one to inherit it.


Even if they wanted to deal with Lin Xun, they had to make a completely safe plan.


“Since we can’t kill him directly, we can use some underhanded means.”


Suddenly, a cruelness flashed through Lin Tianlong’s eyes, “I don’t believe he will hide in Heart-cleansing Peak all his life. Once he leaves Heart-cleansing Peak, we will have thousands of ways to control him!”


Lin Nianshan’s eyes brightened, “What do you mean?”


Lin Pingdu, on the other side, seemed to understand at once. He said with a smile, “It’s a good idea. As long as we keep him alive, we can turn him into our puppet. No matter what means we use, it’s enough for us to control him.”


Lin Nianshan also understood and continued with thoughts, “There are many ways to do this. We can arrest him by poisoning, kidnapping, sneaking attack, etc. And then we can control his body and soul by some fierce secret methods. At that time, we can order him easily as he will be an idiot and lost his self-consciousness.”


Before he finished his speaking, Lin Tianlong and Lin Pingdu beside him couldn’t help laughing.


But Lin Tianlong looked solemn and said immediately, “Dudes, it’s better for us three to know about this. Don’t leak it to others.”


Lin Nianshan and Lin Pingdu nodded, “Got it.”


They were all leaders of forces. How couldn’t they know the importance of this matter? If it was spread out, their reputation would be greatly damaged even if they could finally control Heart-cleansing Peak.


After all, in terms of seniority, they were Lin Xun’s elders and relatives. It was disgraceful for them to murder the younger generation as elders in the same clan.


“So that’s the deal.”


Lin Tianlong said in a deep voice, “Next, I hope that you will send your respective elite forces and work with me to settle this case as soon as possible. After that, it will be the time for our three families to return to Heart-cleansing Peak!”


Lin Nianshan and Lin Pingdu agreed at the same time.


“By the way, what’s the attitude of Northlight Lin?”


Lin Pingdu suddenly asked.


“Don’t care about them!”


Lin Tianlong sneered coldly, “They are still hesitant to take a stand at such a critical moment. When we return to Heart-cleansing Peak, we won’t leave them any benefits!”



Night was near.


The Forbidden City had just held its bustling curtain.


The sky was full of stars and the earth was full of lights.


When the night fell, the lights in the city were like dragon fire circling around the streets, bright and magnificent. It appeared dreamy and prosperous.


Night was also the best time for all the people, such as talented men, young ladies, literati and poets, people of romantic and powerful, to have fun.


All kinds of people shuttled in the bustling street. Some of them were in chariot, some were riding beasts and others were walking around.


In the center of the Forbidden City, adjacent to the Keystone Business, there was a high white jade building accessing to heaven. A light curtain appeared on it.


On the light curtain, a dignified, graceful and beautiful woman was broadcasting all kinds of things happened in the Forbidden City.


“In the Nation Test, there will be 3,700 young top figures from everywhere gathering here. At that time, the imperial family will send Zhao Zhuan, Prince of Yongling, to preside over the Nation Test in person.”


“This morning, the monks of Moon-wheel Empire Yi Nian went to Green-deer School and defeated 13 outstanding students in succession, causing a lot of shock and uproar. Young Sword King Shie Yutang, had come out in person and issued a duel to Yi Nian. We will continue to pay attention to this event in the future. ”


“The latest news from the front line, Water Barbarian of the Voodoo-barbarian suddenly will send a delegation to the Forbidden City in three months. Their purpose is not clear. It is said that the imperial family had agreed to this.”



Like the light curtain of other provincial capitals, the light curtain of the Forbidden City also had broadcast of the latest hot events.


Many practitioners gathered in front of it, listening, analyzing and discussing, which was very lively.


In the bustle crowds, Vulture was sitting in the wheelchair and he was pushing toward slowly by Young Ke behind.


“Things are almost settled. There are still a lot of gold coins left. Don’t you take this opportunity to go around and buy something? You know, when we return to Heart-cleansing Peak this time, we won’t have much chance to hang out in the future. ”


Vulture smiled.


“He’s a pauper now. I will blame myself to spend his money.”


Young Ke said casually.


“Aha? I don’t think he is a pauper. ”


Vulture chuckled.


At this moment, the news from the far-off light curtain behind suddenly attracted the attention of Vulture and Young Ke.


“The young hero to be introduced today is a young whiz who has won the first place in the Province Test of the Southwest Provinces of the Empire.”


“His name is Lin Xun. His talent was extraordinary. It’s particularly interesting to say that he won the first place as men in Human-gang Realm at that time!”


“It’s hard to imagine how he managed it. Looking around the world, how many people can achieve such dazzling achievements as him?”


Before she had finished speaking, the beautiful woman’s words caused a lot of people to shout. It seemed that they couldn’t believe all this.


“F**k! Is Lin Xun so abnormal? ”


“At the age of 14, a man in Human-gang Realm won the first place of the Province Test of Southwest? Are my ears wrong? ”


“Obviously, there are only two possibilities. Either Lin Xun is an abnormal one or the practitioners who took part in the Province Test of Southwest were all rubbish. Otherwise, how could a teenager won the championship?”


“I’ve heard about Lin Xun’s name before. It should not be wrong. Who dares to fake the news of the Province Test?”


“So it’s very likely that Lin Xun will come to participate in the Nation Test?”


“That’s for sure. His is the first place of Province Test. How could he miss this opportunity?”


The voice of discussion continued, Vulture and Young Ke could not help but be stunned. They stopped to listen.


Soon, people were shocked by another message broadcasted in the light curtain.


“It was later confirmed that Lin Xun was the heir of Lin Family in the Forbidden City, and now he had inherited Heart-cleansing Peak, one of the 72 peaks of Influential.”


“It’s a pity that Lin Xun is suffering from common affairs. So he has made it clear that he will not participate in the Nation Test. It can be predicted that the Nation Test will undoubtedly lose a lot of value without this whiz from Southwest Province.”


Hearing this, practitioners on the scene made a lot of noise like frying a pot.


“Lin Family? I remember that there are only four Lin families in the Forbidden City, but none of them have the qualification to settle in Heart-cleansing Peak! ”


“You’re not informed. Heart-cleansing Peak can only be inherited by the lineal descendants of Lin Daochen. Do you know Lin Daochen? He was a Life-death Realm man who saved our empire five hundred years ago! ”


“Tut Tut, I did not expect that the first place of Southwest Province was the lineal descendant of Lin Daochen. No wonder he could make such brilliant achievements at such a young age since he had good genes.”


“Heart-cleansing Peak had a bloody event more than ten years ago. Now Lin Xun suddenly returned to the Forbidden City as the heir of Lin Family. Although he took charge of Heart-cleansing Peak, it’s equivalent for him to jump into the storm whirlpool. If he acts carelessly, he will be smashed right away! ”
