Lei Pi and Lei Xing are said to be experts who have reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm. Now, the two of them have joined forces and brought some subordinates with them, but not only have they failed to achieve anything, they have all been killed by Lin Yi.
"I was lucky to discover their ambush in advance..." Lin Yi said modestly, looking at the gazes around him.
"Damn it, with a bit of luck, you can kill two mid-stage Heavenly Origin Realm experts?"
Some of the loyal Lin family guards exchanged glances and murmured to themselves.
Even if the ambush is discovered in advance, without sufficient strength, it is likely that one will not escape unscathed, let alone launch a powerful counterattack!
"Good boy!"
Lin Xiao patted Lin Yi's shoulder heavily, and finally uttered only these three words, his face full of relief and pride.
……
"What?! The Lei family actually attacked Yi'er?!"
Inside the Ironwood Manor, when Lin Zhentian heard Lin Xiao's report, his face immediately turned grim.
"Hehe, Father, don't worry. Lei Pi and Lei Xing not only failed to achieve anything, but were also killed by Yi'er. Not one of them escaped!"
Lin Xiao said with a hint of pride, "When that old devil Lei Bao finds out about this, he'll probably be so angry he'll vomit blood."
Lin Xiao's words silenced the atmosphere in the hall, and as expected, he saw the shocked expressions on the faces of Lin Zhentian and the others.
"This kid is truly unbelievable. His Thunder Strike and Thunder Punishment are far beyond what Yan Kuo and Wu Sha can compare to!"
The shock lasted for a while before everyone slowly came to their senses, clicking their tongues in amazement and surprise.
"Father, it seems the Lei family is planning to directly attack our Lin family this time. What should we do?" After his initial surprise, a cold glint flashed in Lin Mang's eyes as he asked.
Now, Lin Mang no longer has any intention of provoking Lin Xiao and his son. He only hopes that the Lin family can prosper and that he and his son can also benefit from it.
"Hmm," Lin Zhentian nodded slightly, then smiled and said, "Having suffered such a great loss, Lei Bao won't swallow it so easily, given his personality."
"Give the order to put the Lin family on high alert and keep a close eye on the Lei family's every move."
Lin Yi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Grandpa, since we've already completely broken ties with the Lei family, why don't we strike first and wipe them out?"
"The Lei family had a total of five Heavenly Origin Realm experts, two of whom I have already killed, leaving only three. Our Lin family, on the other hand, now has five Heavenly Origin Realm experts."
"Moreover, I am now at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm, and with the aid of my mental power, I am 100% confident that I can kill Lei Bao!"
"What? Yi'er, you've already reached the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm?"
Upon hearing Lin Yi's words, Lin Zhentian and the others were startled once again.
“That’s right. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to easily kill Lei Pi and Lei Xing,” Lin Yi nodded slightly.
When the Lincoln brothers learned that Lin Yi had broken through to the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm, they were overjoyed. After the initial excitement, they became somewhat tempted by Lin Yi's proposal.
Lin Zhentian pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "If we act now, the Lei and Xie families will join forces, and even if we win, we will suffer considerable losses. Besides, I want to deal with that old bastard Lei Bao myself!"
"Let's wait a little longer. I feel that I'm not far from breaking through to the Yuan Dan realm. Perhaps I'll be able to break through successfully in less than a month. Once I break through to the Yuan Dan realm, I can suppress the Lei family by myself, while you can deal with the Xie family."
“Yes, Father!” The three Lincoln brothers all nodded in response.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and didn't try to persuade Lin Zhentian any further, as Lin Zhentian's personality had always prioritized stability.
Moreover, according to Lin Yi's estimate, Lin Zhentian will be able to break through to the Yuan Dan realm in about half a month.
This is about a month earlier than in the original story. Lei Bao probably won't have broken through yet. Since the old man wants to deal with Lei Bao personally, let's give him a chance.
It's only half a month; Lin Yi can wait that long...
Chapter 38 The Xie Family's Suicide! [Please Read On]
In the days that followed, the atmosphere in Qingyang Town became tense without anyone noticing.
The high-ranking members of the Lei and Xie families were interacting more and more frequently, and some well-informed forces also sensed that something was amiss.
Of course, the Lin family was aware of this unease, but Lin Zhentian had already entered the most critical moment.
At this time, the Lin family's focus was entirely on Lin Zhentian's breakthrough in seclusion.
Due to the atmosphere in Qingyang Town, Tiemu Village was also on high alert.
Not only has the usual defense been increased several times over, but there are also continuous patrols at night.
In this tense atmosphere, another half month passed quickly.
In a cool, shady open space, Lin Yi's hands moved swiftly, forming a series of peculiar hand seals.
As his hand seals changed, his palms suddenly became dazzling.
The hand seals changed rapidly, and the Yuan energy fluctuations gathered in Lin Yi's palm became increasingly terrifying. A light seal about the size of a child's head took shape amidst the surging light.
Visible ripples of elemental energy spread out rapidly!
"go with!"
With a soft shout, a light imprint shot out from between Lin Yi's palms, leaving a dazzling trail in the air before crashing heavily into a large tree in the forest that would require two people to encircle.
"Oh!"
The next instant, a loud explosion rang out in the forest.
The tree, which would take two people to encircle, was instantly shattered by the light emitted by Lin Yi, sending debris flying everywhere!
The powerful surge of Yuan energy blew away all the sand, gravel, and withered branches on the ground, as if a hurricane had passed through!
"The fourth level of the Qimen Seal, its power is not bad!" Lin Yi withdrew his palm and stood up, looking at the destructive power caused by the previous attack, and nodded in satisfaction.
The incomplete Qimen Seal that was selected in the family martial arts hall has now been completely perfected by the light and shadow of the stone talisman.
The current Qimen Seal possesses all four levels, making it comparable to some fifth-grade martial arts.
This is unique in the entire Qingyang Town.
"Shh!"
After finishing his cultivation, Lin Yi whistled into the forest, and in an instant, a fiery red shadow darted out like lightning.
This fiery red figure was none other than Xiao Yan.
During this period, Xiao Yan's size did not appear to change much, but the aura emanating from it grew stronger and stronger.
Xiao Yan's current strength may already be comparable to that of a human expert in the mid-stage or even late-stage Heavenly Origin Realm.
Such a growth rate is quite extraordinary for the Fire Python Tiger clan.
It is said that Wu Yun's fire python tiger is only up to the latter's thigh, and its strength is not even at the Earthly Origin Realm.
"Let's go back to the manor," Lin Yi said, leaping onto Xiao Yan's back and stroking its warm tiger fur.
"Roar!"
Xiao Yan let out a low roar, and his figure transformed into a fiery red shadow once again, quickly gliding down the mountain peak and returning to Ironwood Manor in no time.
"Brother Lin Yi, Dad and the others are looking for you!"
As soon as Lin Yi returned to Ironwood Manor, Qing Tan's slender figure quickly came to greet him, her clear voice like that of a lark reaching his ears.
"What happened?" Lin Yi asked casually upon hearing this.
Qingtan said, "It seems to be about the relocation of family members. Father and the others are discussing it in the council hall."
"Let's go, let's go take a look together," Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, waved to Qing Tan, and strode towards the council hall.
Seeing this, Qingtan quickly followed.
Chamber.
When Lin Yi walked in, he found that not only Lin Xiao and the others, but also the younger generation such as Lin Dong, Lin Xia, and Lin Hong were there.
Lin Xia still had tear stains on her face, clearly indicating that she had just been crying.
"Father, what exactly happened?" Lin Yi stepped into the council hall and asked.
Upon seeing Lin Yi walk in, Lin Xiao and the others breathed a sigh of relief. Unconsciously, they seemed to have come to regard Lin Yi as the pillar of the Lin family.
"During this period, we have been secretly moving the Lin family members from Qingyang Town to Tiemu Village one after another..."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao immediately recounted the entire story.
As Lin Xiao explained, Lin Yi quickly understood what had happened.
During this period, in order to consolidate their defenses, the Lin family secretly moved their members to Tiemu Village.
To avoid being discovered by the Ray and Sherlock families, the process was not very efficient. Today happened to be the last batch, but it was discovered by the Ray and Sherlock families nonetheless.
The Xie family is currently sending people to hunt down the last remaining members of the Lin family.
“This time, the Xie family is led by Xie Qian, the head of the Xie family. We wanted to notify the Mad Blade Martial Arts School for assistance, but the Lei family is keeping a close eye on them, so they can’t make a move,” Lincoln added with a frown.
“Xie Qian is at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm. We need at least two people to stop him. But once we leave, the defenses of Ironwood Manor will weaken. Father is at a critical moment right now, and we absolutely cannot afford any mistakes.”
Tears welled up in Lin Xia's eyes again as she stared intently at Lincoln, because her mother was among the family members.
"The Xie family is really courting death!" Lin Yi said in a deep voice. "Uncle, Father, you two guard Tiemu Village. I'll go and welcome the family procession."
"You go?"
In the hall, many people's expressions changed upon hearing Lin Yi's words. Lin Xiao's face tightened, and he exchanged a glance with Lincoln before saying in a deep voice:
"Xie Qian, who is leading the team this time, is at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm, which is not comparable to Lei Pi and the others!"
Lin Yi smiled calmly, "Father, don't worry. Half a month ago, I was already 100% confident that I could kill Lei Bao. As for Xie Qian, he's naturally no match for me either."
"Not only am I at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm like Xie Qian, but I also have mental power to assist me, so there will be no danger on this trip."
"I'll immediately arrange a team of skilled men to accompany you to meet me!" Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment, then quickly made his decision.
Lincoln and Lin Mang frowned upon hearing this, but eventually nodded silently.
Lin Xiao acted swiftly and quickly gathered about twenty skilled members of the Lin family, who were ready to go outside the hall.
"Shh!"
Lin Yi nodded to them, and a whistle came out. In an instant, a fiery red figure appeared at the front of the group like a ball of flame.
"Come with me!"
Lin Yi leaped onto the tiger's back, his gaze icy, and with a wave of his hand, he took the lead and dashed towards the manor gate.
"Lin Yi, watch out!"
