Chapter 826: Chapter 821: Target of Public Criticism (First Update!)
In the courtyard, the eyes of the Duan family mbers, more than a dozen in total, fell upon Lin Tian.
A very ordinary young man, nothing special could be seen at a glance.
The Duan family’s roots have been in Ancient dicine Town for generations, with a heritage spanning thousands of years, originally a branch of the Ancient dicine Sect.
Thus, from the beginning, so basic cultivation thods have also been passed down, and each generation has had a few talented descendants successfully achieve Qi Refinent.
Up to now, besides Duan Shiyue and Duan Shiyi, who have astonishing talent, there are still a few in the family who have reached the second or third layer of the Qi Refinent Realm, far beyond ordinary people.
Back in the day, when the old man was young, it was discovered that he had extraordinary talent. Upon entering the Ancient dicine Sect, he successfully reached Foundation Establishnt at sixty, elevating the Duan family to one of the top families around the Ancient dicine Sect.
Alongside the Ling Family and the Qi Family, they beca the Three Major Families!
Unfortunately, later on, the Duan family was frad, many powerhouses fell, and except for the old man, the family was left without a pillar to hold it up.
But even so, the Duan family today is still incomparable to ordinary families from outside.
Not to ntion the ordinary young man in front of them, he was not even worthy of their notice.
Therefore, upon hearing the old man’s words, they all nodded in agreent, secretly believing that Lin Tian was just an ordinary person.
If the Golden Core Ancestor were to make a move, let alone the young man, even if the entire Duan family were to mobilize, they wouldn’t stand up to a single finger!
Witnessing this scene.
Duan Shiyue pouted slightly, showing so discontent on her face.
Lin Tian had indeed saved her life, but none of her family, including her grandfather, believed it!
A life-saving grace as heavy as Taishan!
Duan Shiyue exhaled angrily, “Grandpa, I’m telling the truth. Why won’t you all believe ?”
“You little girl, if you were captured by the Golden Core Ancestor, even Grandpa couldn’t do a thing!”
Duan Boxin still did not believe, glaring at Duan Shiyue, “I can tell, you’re trying to help this boy with sothing, aren’t you? Or are you trying to bring him into the Ancient dicine Sect?”
“Sister, Grandpa brought us here to seek justice from the Ancient dicine Sect, so don’t ddle!”
Beside her, Duan Shiyi tugged on her twin sister, whisperingly.
“Oh, you all…”
Duan Shiyue’s face flushed with anger, at this mont even her closest sister didn’t believe her.
“Ahem… I do indeed need the old man’s help! I have two friends, a male and a female, who have been captured by people from the Ancient dicine Sect… or, to be more precise, by people from the Holy Gu Sect and brought here!”
At this mont, Lin Tian lightly coughed, gestured to Duan Shiyue to not be entangled in this matter, and then spoke to Duan Boxin, “Do you perhaps know where they might have been taken within the Ancient dicine Sect, or were they directly taken to the Holy Gu Sect?”
“What, another young girl was captured!”
Duan Boxin suddenly stood up, his face full of anger, shouting loudly, “They’ve changed, they’ve all changed! The Ancient dicine Sect of today is truly… nothing more than soone else’s pawn! Bringing sha to the na of Ancient dicine!”
“Do they frequently capture people randomly before? I heard that the Ancient dicine Sect is supposed to uphold the virtue of healing the world!”
Lin Tian looked on in surprise, speaking to Duan Boxin.
“That was before!”
Duan Boxin gave a wry smile, shaking his head, “Ever since Xue Xing took over the Ancient dicine Sect ten years ago, he has been secretly kidnapping young girls from the Southwest, sending them to the Holy Gu Sect. Additionally, he has secretly colluded with many cultivators from the South Seas and the Holy Gu Sect to plot against the Southwest and even the entire Southern Continent. Later, many families affiliated with the Ancient dicine Sect discovered this and jointly petitioned the Upper Sect, but it was all suppressed by him… And to set an example, he even resorted to various ans to fra our Duan family for colluding with the South Seas cultivation forces…”
“How could such a cri be borne by our Duan family? We ca here to demand an explanation, I don’t believe Xue Xing will go all out and kill so many of us. That’s also the reason so many mbers of our Duan family have co, plus we have reached an understanding with several important families like the Qi Family and going together!”
“I just didn’t expect another person was captured!”
So that’s what happened!
Lin Tian nodded slightly, listening to Duan Boxin’s words, he only then learned so of the secret historical events.
However, Lin Tian’s heart was even more filled with worry, he said, “Why are they sending those young girls to the Holy Gu Sect?”
“This… we don’t know either!”
Duan Boxin said with a solemn face, shaking his head, “But rest assured, we know where those captured are being held, I’ll look into it for you, find a way to rescue them!”
Imdiately, Duan Boxin called over a young mber of the Duan family, whispered a few words before the young man hurriedly left.
Seeing this, Lin Tian imdiately understood and cupped his hands towards Duan Boxin, “Thank you, Mr. Duan! As long as my friends are safe, after today, the Ancient dicine Sect will be under your Duan family’s control! If possible, I’ll go with you to the sect later!”
Upon hearing Lin Tian’s arrogant words, the Duan family mbers’ faces changed drastically.
Duan Boxin’s expression also changed and was about to scold Lin Tian.
But suddenly, a burst of laughter ca from outside the door.
“Hahahaha… such arrogance! Your Duan family taking over the Ancient dicine Sect? A rebellious clan, yet dare to speak such nonsense!”
With the words falling, two groups of people dressed in different clothes stepped into the room.
Both groups had about seven or eight people each, but every one of them had an extraordinary aura, primarily in the second or third layer of the Qi Refinent Realm.
The two people leading each group had even reached the Early Stage Foundation Establishnt!
“Ling Qingshan!”
Duan Boxin’s head snapped up, his gaze landing on an old man in green robes, a hint of surprise in his expression.
“Surprised, aren’t you? Hehe, Duan Boxin, you all have quite the nerve!”
The green-robed elder Ling Qingtian sneered, his gaze sweeping over Duan Boxin and the other Duan family mbers, barking, “The Sect Leader allowed your Duan family to co here, wanting you to hand over the Ancient dicine Secret Technique, and in return publicly clear your family’s na of betrayal! But unexpectedly, you plan to unite with families like the Qi Family to overthrow Master Xue!”
Upon hearing this.
The faces of the Duan family mbers changed drastically.
“Qi Tianzhu, you… you actually betrayed us behind our backs!”
Duan Boxin turned, glaring furiously at the ink-robed elder, shouting loudly.
“Ah, Brother Duan, we… we should just surrender! This ti, it’s different from before…”
The ink-robed elder Qi Tianzhu lowered his head slightly, sighed, and shook his head.
This person was none other than Qi Tianzhu, the authority of the Qi family, one of the top families affiliated with the Ancient dicine Sect.
And the one beside him, Ling Qingshan, naturally ca from the Ling Family!
“Hehe, now Young Master Xue has arrived at Ancient dicine Town, gathering other families at the town square, ready to return to the Ancient dicine Sect, just waiting on your Duan family!”
Qi Tianzhu sneered, saying, “Let’s move now! Let’s not wait for us to take action…”
“Grandpa…”
The mbers of the Duan family were all in a panic, and Duan Shiyi and others also showed fear on their faces.
The carefully laid out plan was exposed, going to the Ancient dicine Sect now would be extrely dangerous.
“Humph, the Duan family cannot bear such a cri, we’ll go along and see what kind of explanation Xue Xing has for us!”
Duan Boxin gritted his teeth, speaking to Duan Shiyi and the others.
Afterwards, they followed Qi Tianzhu and Ling Qingshan, heading towards the town square of Ancient dicine Town.
anwhile, Lin Tian followed along at a steady pace.
“Lin… Lin Tian, can you help us later?”
Duan Shiyue walked beside Lin Tian, speaking urgently.
“Like I said, we’ll help each other! As long as my friends are safe, the Ancient dicine Sect will change hands!”
Lin Tian’s eyes glinted coldly, nodding in agreent.
Soon, they arrived at the square of Ancient dicine Town.
Duan Boxin walked at the forefront, looking around to see that the many families who communicated with him beforehand were all bowing towards a young man in front, and upon seeing their Duan family mbers arrive, each revealed a cold sneer.
“Duan Boxin, you’re the fool, do you think we’re brainless as well! Our Young Master Xue is so wise, if we don’t follow him, listening to you, we won’t even know how we died…”
Many directly mocked, ridiculing Duan Boxin and others.
Gradually, many began to murmur among themselves, anwhile criticizing Duan Boxin and others, while simultaneously flattering the young man standing in front.
