Chapter 338 - 338: Upper Realm Scion (1)
The Lin Family ancestor suddenly received a call and he was surprised to find that it was from Lin Jian.
When he picked up, he just casually said, "Jian, it's already over, so what are you in a rush for?"
He still had something else to say, but before he even could, Lin Jian suddenly cut him off by saying, "Father, it's urgent, please come back as soon as you can."
The Lin Family ancestor slightly knitted his brows when he heard this.
Urgent, what could be more urgent than the destruction of the entire realm?
It seems like these kids really were too anxious. He would have to teach them a good lesson once he headed back.
But then Lin Jian's next words completely shattered that thought.
Lin Jian said in an even more anxious voice, "Father, it's the young master from the Liao Family. The scouts have told us that they just arrived in True Light City and are about to head our way."
The Lin Family ancestor was no longer as calm as before as he suddenly deeply knitted his brows and he said, "Did they find out about the matter with Ao?"
Lin Jian gave a sigh before saying, "Other than that, they have no reason to come here. Did you hear any news about them coming down as reinforcements?"
The Lin Family ancestor checked the report on the Union Government's private information network. They had published a report on the beast horde, which listed all the upper realm factions that had come down as reinforcements.
Naturally the Union Government knew that their reputations had suffered a large blow with the way the beast horde had turned out, so they were trying to use this as a way to improve their own reputation. After all, having the support of various upper realm factions, what could be better to raise belief in their power?
But the Liao Family was one of the forces that weren't included in the list of upper realm factions that had come as reinforcements. For them to suddenly appear in True Light City at this time, would there be another reason?
Lin Fan came forward and asked, "Ancestor, is there a problem?"
The Lin Family ancestor immediately stood up and said, "We need to go now, there's something that's about to happen to the Lin Family."
Then he turned back to his wrist and said to Lin Jian, "Tell Ao and his family to hide right away and stall the Liao Family for as long as you can. I'll come back as soon as I can."
When Lin Fan heard this, he immediately knitted his brows as well.
If this was something that only affected the Lin Family, he wouldn't care as much. He would still care since the Lin Family was his father's family and he still cared for them, but beyond that, he didn't have any personal feelings for them.
But now that he had heard that this was related to his parents, naturally he couldn't sit still.
They were the first people he had bonded with on this planet, so their position in his heart couldn't be measured.
The Lin Family ancestor and Lin Fan didn't waste any time in heading out to the airship once again to rush to True Light City.
As for Momonga and Angela, they were staying this time.
This was a matter that involved Lin Fan's family and they had something else to do.
They had seen the God Realm laws and just seeing them was more than enough of a stimulus for them. They had to go and stabilize their learnings from the God Realm laws, so they didn't want to run around if they didn't have to.
But the most important reason was that Lin Fan had already broken through, so he was more than capable of taking care of himself on this lower realm. There was no chance that the real experts of the upper realm would come down now that the treasure was gone, so Lin Fan was definitely more than enough to take care of those weaker experts that came.
Since that was the case, they might as well let him fight to help him stabilize his realm.
On the trip to True Light City, neither one of them talked just like usual, but the Lin Family ancestor had been monitoring his watch the entire time for any information.
As they were about to arrive, Lin Fan suddenly turned to the Lin Family ancestor and said, "If anything happens to my family, I won't forgive the Lin Family."
The Lin Family ancestor gave a sigh and shook his head, "You don't have to view the family with such hostility, we are your family too after all. More importantly, Ao is more capable than you think, that is why I have such faith in him."
Lin Fan was surprised to hear this from the Lin Family ancestor, especially since he was the one who had seemingly abandoned their family…
In the end, Lin Fan just turned to the side and gave a soft snort, without saying a thing.
The Lin Family ancestor looked calm on the surface, but he did give a sigh deep down.
It seemed like it wouldn't be easy winning over the heart of this young man, but he had no choice in this matter. This young man had that special physique, so as long as nothing happened, which he wouldn't let happen, this young man would be the one in charge of the Lin Family in the future. Not just this Lin Family in this lower realm…
Once again, it didn't take them long to arrive, but the moment they did, they didn't even pause for a second as they rushed off towards the Lin Manor.
They could tell from the life energy that filled the air that there was a spiral gathering above the Lin Manor, as if someone was purposefully releasing their energy as provocation. But that place was the Lin Manor, who would dare do such a thing?
No one, that is no one in this lower realm.
But the Liao Family came from the upper realm, so that rule didn't apply to them.
When they arrived, they saw that the gate had been kicked in and the yard was in a mess.
There were six people standing right in front of the Lin Manor, releasing their auras, which were all in the peak Platinum Realm. But another thing that they all had in common was that they had varying degrees of injuries covering them.
It was clear that all six of them had just fought a fierce battle.
These six were none other than the six elders of the Lin Family.
Even the second elder had come out at a time like this.
Even though he wanted the title of family head, it meant nothing if there wasn't a family for him to be the head of, so naturally he came out at this time.
Even if the Lin Family had their internal squabbles, they stood united when facing an outside threat like all other families.
But they weren't the main characters of this scene.
On the other side, there was an old man who had his hands crossed behind his back, looking quite relaxed. He clearly didn't look like he had just fought a battle, but with the aura he released, it was clear that he was the one that had just faced the six elders.
The aura he released wasn't normal, it was the aura of a Legendary Realm Expert!
But even with this aura, he also wasn't the main character in this act.
The two main characters were standing right in the center, facing each other.
One was a young man who Lin Fan had never seen before, but the one standing in front of him was one that Lin Fan could easily recognize. After all, it was his father Lin Ao facing this unknown person.
Lin Ao wasn't as injured as the other elders, but he still did have a few scrapes on him.
When the Lin Family ancestor arrived, naturally he attracted the attention of everyone present since this was the arrival of a Legendary Realm Expert, the peak of the Blue Star Planet.
But soon after, the two in the middle continued their conversation.
The unknown young man looked at Lin Ao in disdain and said, "Lin Ao, I never thought that you would still struggle this much. You were nothing more than a lower realm worm back then and now you're even worse off compared to before. At least back then you were still the proud son of heaven, but what are you now? Nothing more than crippled trash."
Lin Ao looked right at this young man and said, "Liao Ping, you were the loser dog that could only bark back then and I never thought that your barking skills would become even better."
The young man who had been called Liao Ping immediately flew into a rage when he heard this and he released his cultivation.
It was clear that he was less than fifty years old and he was already in the peak Platinum Realm which could be considered a genius if he was in the lower realm, but even in the upper realm, he would still have been considered a talented person.
Liao Ping said through gritted teeth, "I don't know what despicable methods you used to trick little sister Rou'er back then, but it won't be the same anymore since you're nothing more than trash now!"
As soon as he said this, he sent out a palm that was aimed right at Lin Ao.
