Novel Full Chapter 985
Chapter 985: Chapter 988: Lin An Takes Action_1 Chapter 985: Chapter 988: Lin An Takes Action_1 Gabriel, who was advancing, shuddered, and his forward momentum abruptly ceased.
It was not that he didn’t want to move forward, but a terrifying, surging presence in the sky had locked him firmly in place!
Gabriel had never felt such a terrifying pressure before, nothing any Martial Artist had ever inflicted upon him.
Looking up with a trace of fear, he saw a thundercloud descending from the sky.
The Divine Thunder was hidden above, restrained and silent, but this only made it feel more terrifying.
“Who is…!”
Unknowingly, Gabriel’s voice had become hoarse.
The thundercloud descended and landed beside him, and from it, two men stepped off.
…
He didn’t recognize one of them, but the other was impossible not to recognise.
The most outstanding Martial Artist from the Holy Land of Falling Star Lake, his hypothetical adversary, Lin Zhen!
With the appearance of Lin Zhen, a commotion broke out in the Holy Land.
Seventy or eighty years had gone by, yet Lin Zhen didn’t seem to have changed much.
His messy long hair, starlike eyes, bronze skin, tall and imposing figure, and his deep, inscrutable Star Power made his realm difficult to discern.
Stepping off the thundercloud, Lin Zhen paid no attention to the intensely nervous Gabriel.
His gaze was fixed on the woman across from him.
“Husband….”
“Dad!”
“Brother Lin!”
The first to rush over was An Ning, who saw not only her husband but also her son, Lin An!
Lin Zhen had brought back her child, which filled An Ning with immense joy.
She embraced her husband, then threw herself at Lin An, crying with joy.
Lin An also hugged his mother and cried.
After not seeing her for many years, he too missed her greatly.
“Thank you, husband, for finally bringing An back.
You wouldn’t believe how worried I’ve been for him.
Among the two of our sons, I’ve always been more concerned about An.
Ping is much stronger and independent, but An has always been playful, and I was really scared that something would happen to him…
Where’s Ping?
Why isn’t he with An?”
Gently embracing An Ning’s shoulders, Lin Zhen reassured her, “Don’t worry.
I have a rough idea about Ping’s whereabouts.
It’s just that the Endless Star Sea is so vast and distant, I haven’t had time to go there yet.
Once we settle things here, I’ll go find Ping.”
Looking into An Ning’s eyes, Lin Zhen comforted her, “Trust your husband’s intuition.
Ping is definitely safe.”
An Ning nodded vigorously, “Mm, I trust you.”
Lin Zhen smiled and kissed An Ning on the lips, which instantly made her blush, “Our son’s here.”
At this moment, Lin Mei’er also flew into her father’s arms and cooed like a baby.
Lin Zhen held Su Mingyue and Mei’er, mother and daughter, and relieved years of longing they had for him.
An Qier sisters and Ling’er were also shedding tears of joy, gathering around Lin Zhen.
As for these girls who had long been like family members, Lin Zhen didn’t want to let them down.
He would find an opportunity to officially make them part of his family.
As Lin Zhen’s family rejoiced in their reunion, Gabriel was feeling a bit awkward.
He stood there, ready for battle, but it seemed like Lin Zhen hadn’t noticed him at all.
It made him feel like he was throwing a punch at cotton.
Plus, he didn’t dare to act recklessly.
This was his first time meeting Lin Zhen, so he needed to carefully observe him.
He couldn’t figure out how advanced Lin Zhen’s realm was.
This was the first person, aside from his fifth martial brother, whose realm he couldn’t discern.
He could only feel Lin Zhen’s fluctuating Star Power, which was both imposing and elusive, making him unfathomable.
A battle that could not be fathomed needed to be dealt with vigilantly.
However, at this point, he didn’t think there was any possibility of a reconciliation between him and Lin Zhen.
He was ready to fight at any moment.
After a small chat with his family, Lin Mei’er said to Lin Zhen, “Dad, this man almost killed us just now.”
Lin Zhen glanced over at Gabriel, “Don’t worry, he can’t kill you.
Even if I weren’t here, your fifth martial uncle wouldn’t have let you get hurt.
He just didn’t intervene because I had returned.”
Hearing that Lin Zhen was finally addressing him, Gabriel sneered, “Lin Zhen, are you referring to the old times?
Can you seriously believe that you are still the top individual in the Holy Land of Falling Star Lake?”
Lin Zhen chuckled coldly, “Originally, I was supposed to kill you without wasting words.
But since we’re in front of so many people from the Holy Land today, I might as well let you comprehend why you’re dying.
Whether or not I’m the top figure in the Holy Land isn’t up to you to decide.
Because you are simply not qualified.”
Lin Zhen took a step forward, “If you dare to hurt my family, I wonder who gave you such courage.
But today you will pay for your actions.”
“Lin Zhen, enough with the nonsense, just get on with it!”
Gabriel’s heart was throbbing with battle intent, and his Star Power had exploded to the limit.
He was eager to have a showdown with Lin Zhen.
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhen snorted coldly, “Get started with me?
No, no.”
“What?
Are you scared?”
Lin Zhen turned back and spoke to Lin An, “An, what should you do with someone who wanted to harm your mother and the others just now?”
Lin An strode up, “Father, you don’t need to deal with this kind of person.
I’ll handle him.”
“Good, be careful though.
This person may not be strong, but he is also definitely not a weakling, especially his trick of attacking from all sides just now, be careful in dealing with it.”
“Rest assured, Father.
I am confident.”
Nodding, Lin Zhen stepped back and returned to his family’s side.
Looking at Lin Zhen’s son before him, Gabriel’s nose almost twitched in anger.
The one he challenged was Lin Zhen, not any son of Lin Zhen.
Even though this boy was also at the Three Flowers Peak, opponents at the Three Flowers Stage no longer held any place in Gabriel’s eyes.
“Get lost, you brat!”
Gabriel stepped forward, flinging a strike toward him.
Facing Gabriel, Lin An sneered, suddenly unleashing a punch with all his strength!
Boom~~!
An explosion of air sounded between them.
Gabriel, being too arrogant, was sent flying by a single punch from Lin An.
Before Gabriel could recover from his shock, Lin An had already quickly caught up.
The four-meter-long spear in his hand was a Lower Grade treasure gifted by Lin Zhen.
The fighting skill he uses was the Landis Spear Technique, taught by Lin Zhen.
Spring Earth!
The spear danced in the air, bolstered by the Tidal Martial Intent.
The roar of earth, water, fire, and wind erupted, immediately putting Gabriel in extreme danger.
One could see clusters of energy enveloping Gabriel.
Although he unleashed his long sword, he could not withstand Lin An’s fierce attack and was continuously retreating.
The spectators below were shocked to their core.
Lin Zhen was back.
It was rumored that Lin Zhen had made great strides in the Endless Star Sea and even secured a spot in the top three of the Hall of Fame.
Without firsthand experience, people were unsure about the concept of the Hall of Fame, but they could guess it was quite impressive.
It was not surprising that Lin Zhen could defeat Gabriel, but why was his son also so formidable?
Everyone had witnessed Gabriel’s strength.
In the Holy Land, his presence was almost invincible.
Didn’t the six girls from the Lin family struggle even when fighting together against him?
This enormous contrast aroused people’s curiosity about Lin Zhen’s true strength.
As it appeared now, Lin Zhen’s power might have reached an unimaginable height beyond their expectations.
********
Lin An did not care about these things.
The current Gabriel could be considered a formidable opponent.
Before receiving special training from his father, Lin An admitted he was not a match.
However, after receiving Lin Zhen’s teachings on the spaceship for over ten years, Lin An was no longer the same.
With profound mastery of the long spear, which he inherited from his father, and well-honed battle skill and timing, Lin An was far beyond the league of Gabriel.
Long spear darting up and down, Lin An quickly submerged Gabriel in a relentless storm of attacks.
The Star Power that Gabriel took pride in was even slightly weaker than Lin An’s.
This small difference rendered him unable to execute his Universe Mirror Skill!
The Universe Mirror Skill was merely a force field, a domain.
It was useless in front of someone whose Star Power exceeded his own.
Winter’s Chill!
Swish~!
Lin An’s relentless attack finally paid off.
With a stab through Gabriel’s shoulder, he sent him sprawling on the ground!
Being defeated in front of so many people in the Holy Land, Gabriel wanted to die from humiliation.
He had to recover from this embarrassment; he needed revenge!
But seeing Lin An quickly launching his attacks, Gabriel temporarily couldn’t find a way to defeat him.
At this moment, seeing Gabriel’s predicament, Athena rushed over in a frenzy to rescue him.
Seeing Athena, Gabriel’s eyes lit up.
He hurriedly retreated, pointed at Lin An, and commanded, “Hold him off for me!”
Upon receiving the order, Athena danced with her long sword and charged at Lin An.
Gabriel, meanwhile, quickly retreated.
After swallowing some kind of Elixir, he surprisingly started to break through right on the spot!
He was already at the Three Flowers Peak.
If he breaks through further, he’d reach the God Transformation!
Seeing this situation, An Ning became anxious.
She grabbed Lin Zhen’s hand and said, “My love, this man is about to break through his realm.
And An’er is being entangled by that woman.
What should we do?
An’er is a bit soft-hearted; I’m afraid he won’t be able to be harsh towards this woman.”
Lin Zhen patted An Ning’s hand and said, “Trust An’er.”
Lin Zhen also wanted to see how Lin An would perform in the face of a woman’s entanglement, how he would choose.
Athena fearlessly attacked Lin An as if she’d gone mad, her eyes even wet with tears.
Her pear-like figure covered in dewdrops, she knew she was no match for Lin An.
Yet for the sake of buying time for Gabriel, she had to do so.
While An Ning and the others were all females and did not care for Athena, she didn’t believe that Lin An, a grown man, could be harsh towards someone as beautiful as her.
Dashing into the air, she lifted her sword with both hands, launching an attack with all her might.
Crying, Athena yelled, “You are all bullies!
If so, just kill me!”
Her curves were prominent and her scent overpowering.
Her attack neither fast nor particularly violent, it seemed to possess an exotic allure instead.
However, Lin Zhen could clearly see that behind Athena’s seemingly gentle strike, her long sword had already gathered to its limit.
Lin An seemed unmoving.
A smug look appeared in Athena’s eyes.
However, just as she approached Lin An, what met her was a star thrown with all of Lin An’s strength!
“Ugly freak!
The women of the Lin family, as well as the close female relations my father knows, are hundreds of times more beautiful than you.
How dare you flaunt yourself in front of me, go to hell!
Planet Fall!”
A bead of cold sweat ran down Lin Zhen’s forehead.
