A detached voice suddenly resounded, like a bolt from the blue exploding beside everyone’s ears.
Upon these words, the vicinity suddenly fell silent; many eyes cast their gaze this way, even Lin Zihua and Lin Dong did the sa.
When they realized it was Lin Feng, everyone’s expressions beca particularly splendid.
After a long silence, soone couldn’t help but snicker.
Lin Zihua’s gaze flickered. Lin Dong was first stunned, then shook his head. What a fool, didn’t he feel embarrassed enough? Yet he dared to say such things outright.
Not just them, many of the Lei Family disciples and Shi Family disciples who heard this also shook their heads wordlessly. This guy really was sothing.
Many displayed disdain and mockery. Lin Feng just shrugged his shoulders. Nowadays, telling the truth earned no belief, but no matter, he had anticipated this situation.
"It doesn’t matter, a month from now, at the family selection tournant, I will stand face to face with Lin Zihua on the stage. Then, even if you don’t believe, you’ll have to accept reality—that Lin Zihua will be defeated by my hands, even, die by my hands."
Lin Feng faced everyone’s mockery unshaken, like the steady northern breeze.
Lin Zihua shook his head, treating Lin Feng as a joke. He couldn’t be bothered to give Lin Feng another glance; his attention was fixed either on Lei Ming or Shi Gandang, believing it had to be one of these two.
Hearing this, Lin Dao laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. "Ha-ha, you idiot, dreaming of getting the baptism qualification? Ha-ha, it’s too funny, Lin Feng, don’t you see it’s broad daylight? Quit dreaming those impractical thoughts."
Lin Feng just lightly smiled: "Lin Dao, have you forgotten how you looked lying defeated before like a dog those past tis? I usually don’t like to fight, but if that pest keeps nagging, I do get annoyed. How about another round?"
"You..."
Lin Dao’s face imdiately turned sour, his heart filled with raging anger—Lin Feng dared call him a pest!
Instinctively furious, but recalling his inexplicable defeats to Lin Feng twice before, he suddenly lacked confidence facing Lin Feng, feeling a bit uncertain.
Honestly, he always felt there was sothing off about Lin Feng, especially those eyes that looked at others as if holding the winning ticket, or like a cat toying with a mouse, mocking and teasing. Essentially, it was a disdain that naturally oozed from the soul, a kind reserved for those in high positions or the powerful when dealing with the weak.
Lin Dao couldn’t understand why an insignificant First Grade Star master would have such a look.
By this ti, Great Elder Lin Dong had already announced their return march. Seeing this, Lin Dao seized the chance to step down, glaring hatefully at Lin Feng, "Lin Feng, keep flattering yourself. Even if you can beat , it’s nothing to be proud of. If you are capable, try fighting Master Lin Zihua."
Lin Feng responded with a light smile, "Don’t worry, it won’t be long before he too will bow before ."
Saying so, he boarded the carriage, leaving Lin Dao dumbfounded until soone urged him, and he snapped back to reality.
He scoffed, "What nonsense that idiot just said, making Master Zihua bow before him? Must be out of his mind."
Lin Feng and Lin Panghu squeezed into a carriage, everyone inside stayed quiet, partly from tiredness, partly from not wanting to speak. Upon reaching the Lin Family, Lin Zheng the Third Elder and others awaited at the mansion’s entrance. When they heard about Lin Zihua obtaining the baptism qualification, his expression beca sowhat surprised and complex.
Lin Dong constantly watched his expression, feeling incredibly pleased, and promptly said:
"Family Head, this ti, Zihua has truly earned honor for our Lin Family and made a great contribution. Don’t you think he deserves so reward?"
Lin Zheng regained his composure and nodded, indeed, according to the rules, a reward was warranted.
"Lin Zihua, what do you want?"
Lin Zihua smiled faintly: "I want the cultivation privileges of the Jade Stone Room!"
What?
When Lin Zihua uttered these words, everyone was moved, and Lin Zheng’s face instantly turned incredibly dark.
The Jade Stone Room could be said to be the most precious place of the Lin Family, and also a major forbidden area besides the Family Head’s residence.
Because this place is accessible only to the next Family Head, that is, the incumbent Family Head.
The Jade Stone Room automatically replenishes its nature’s spiritual energy every three years and coincides with the triennial Family Head election. It is also often opened for use as a reward to the family.
Lin Zihua’s words easily led everyone to wild thoughts.
Even Lin Dong was sowhat speechless, not expecting Lin Zihua to bring it up so straightforwardly, but it didn’t matter, all this was precisely what he wanted, so talking about it now wasn’t excessive.
Lin Zihua smiled faintly: "By the way, Family Head, don’t overthink it. Honestly, I have no interest in becoming the insignificant Lin Family Head. Whoever becos the Family Head, I don’t mind, I just want to use the Jade Stone Room to elevate my cultivation."
"Because my aim is to join the Green Wolf Camp under the Lesser Wolf Lord of the Northern Territory, that is where I belong."
When Lin Zihua said this, everyone was stunned.
The King of the Northern Territory, the Lesser Wolf Lord, a legendary figure, was one of the few Heavenly Martial Masters in Hu Ben Country.
And his Green Wolf Camp was specifically designed to nurture geniuses,
The number is small, but each one is a dragon among n, not sothing ordinary people can join.
This Lin Zihua really had high aspirations, many Elders stroked their beards and sighed lightly, this young man would surely achieve great things in the future.
Lin Feng also heard Lin Zihua’s bold words.
In Hu Ben Country, this Lesser Wolf Lord is indeed a figure, known as the King of the Northern Territory, a Heavenly Martial Master, with high cultivation. Going there was indeed a good destination, but Lin Feng’s ambition was not there.
What he cared about was that after three months, the Iron Spear Divine Marquis in the Imperial City of Hu Ben Country would recruit thirty-two people for his Divine Wind Camp as his personally trained excellent disciples.
The Iron Spear Divine Marquis’s renown was not as great as the repeatedly victorious King of the Northern Territory because one stayed in the impoverished and chaotic Northern Territory while the other was in the Imperial City, but he was also a genuine Heavenly Martial Master at the peak.
Of course, not many knew his true strength, and Lin Feng had only found out about it later. Lin Feng wanted to join his Divine Wind Camp, not because of his peak Heavenly Martial Master cultivation, but because the Iron Spear Divine Marquis could be said to be Lin Feng’s life ntor.
In his previous life, Lin Feng had followed this path and it could be said that the Iron Spear Divine Marquis played a crucial stepping stone role in his life. Lin Feng had great respect and even gratitude for him, but later, he unexpectedly received news of the Iron Spear Divine Marquis’s death. At that ti, Lin Feng returned to Hu Ben Country once and could never find the murderer, and eventually, the matter faded away, becoming a thorn in Lin Feng’s heart, involuntarily surfacing in his thoughts every night before sleep.
"Just I don’t know, in this life, whether I can prevent this tragedy from happening."
