Chapter 304: Lin Manor (2)

Of course, there were a few things that did confuse him.

Last he checked, Lin Fan had only been in the low Platinum Realm, but now it seemed like he had already broken through to the high Platinum Realm. Moreover, it seemed like he was ready to break through at any moment.

This kind of speed was already enough for him to be considered an unparalleled genius on the Blue Star Planet.

Not to mention that he also had never cultivated before, just starting to cultivate less than a year ago.

The Lin Family ancestor had checked Lin Fan when he had been born and he was the one who had found the cause of his inability to cultivate. He was certain that Lin Fan would never be cured, but now he was proving him wrong by charging into the Lin Family.

The more important thing was that the Lin Family ancestor could feel a few traces of absorption power that was naturally surrounding Lin Fan. Others might not notice it, but he was very sensitive to this kind of thing.

"This kid really has inherited the powers of the Lin Family...Good, very good! It seems like the heavens haven't abandoned our Lin Family yet!"

"Now, let's see how he handles this."

…

Back in the front of the Lin Manor, it was a complete mess.

The door had been smashed in and there were guards scattered all over the ground.

The intense fighting had turned the neatly managed front garden into a warzone, completely ruining the hard work of the gardeners. If they could see what had happened to their hard work, they would have definitely gone all out against Lin Fan.

Naturally, this large commotion attracted the attention of those inside the manor.

At first they had thought that it was something the guards could deal with, but once they felt the aura that came from the front, they knew that it definitely wasn't something Silver Realm guards could deal with. The waves of energy that came from the front were waves of energy from a law.

Those that could use laws were only those that were in the Platinum Realm or above, this meant that there must be an expert attacking them.

Still, even knowing all this, none of the members of the main Lin Family panicked. After all, they were a Legendary Realm family with a Legendary Realm Expert backing them, they would be safe even if the sky were to fall on them.

But how wrong they were.

Most of the main family members chose to wait and observe the situation since most of them naturally were able to recognize Lin Ao.

They were all curious why Lin Ao would be back, but they were more curious who the expert he brought with him was.

Like there were those who were willing to wait, there were also those that weren't willing to wait. Just like Lin Yu and Lin Jun, the father and son who had gone to Snow Wind City last time.

During this past half a year, they had been thinking of ways to get back at Lin Ao at first, but then there was an announcement from the ancestor that made them completely forget about this.

After Lin Yu and Lin Jun had come back, the ancestor had announced that he would be looking for a closed door disciple, the final one that he would take. This was definitely a chance for them.

Even if Lin Jun didn't look like it after being beaten by Lin Fan so easily, he was actually one of the top talents of the Lin Family.

Instead of focusing on trash like Lin Ao who had been kicked out of the family, it was better to focus on getting the attention of the ancestor. So during these past six months, it had been a period of intense competition in the Lin Family.

Becoming the disciple of the ancestor would be like growing wings, but becoming the final disciple of the ancestor would be equal to ascending to heaven. As the final disciple, naturally the ancestor would hold nothing back in his teachings, giving that final disciple everything he knew.

The infighting in the Lin Fan had been quite intense during this past half a year, there was even one genius that had been seriously injured.

But what they didn't know was that this had all been a part of the ancestor's plan…

Still, even if Lin Yu didn't have time to care about Lin Ao before, now that Lin Ao was showing himself at the door of the Lin Family, why wouldn't he seize this chance to take care of him?

As far as everyone was concerned, Lin Ao was still exiled from the family. Now that he was here in the Lin Manor, this was a clear violation of his exile and he was surely to be punished for this.

The family head was his father, so he wouldn't enforce it and the first elder was someone who didn't care about worldly matters, only focusing on his own cultivation, so he wouldn't enforce it either. But it was a different story when it came to the second elder.

The second elder was the family head's older brother and he had always thought that he should be the family head.

He knew that his big brother, the first elder, didn't care about this position even though he was the strongest because he was a cultivation maniac, so he always assumed that this position would fall onto him. After all, he was the second oldest of the Lin Family second generation and the second strongest. By all rights, the family head position should have fallen onto him.

However, fate didn't end that way.

With the appearance of Lin Ao, the position of his sixth brother, Lin Ao's father, Lin Jiao had suddenly jumped up.

Back when Lin Ao hadn't been exiled and was still in the Lin Family, he had just been too dazzling. He completely surpassed his own generation and was a match for the generation above him. His cultivation had even been close to reaching the cultivation level of his own father when he was in his twenties.

That level of cultivation was something that no one had ever heard of and almost everyone believed that there would be an era where the Lin Family would have two Legendary Realm Experts at the same time. However, that wasn't to be.

It was said that Lin Ao had caused an accident where he had been seriously injured and had been crippled, resulting in no cultivation and a limp in his leg, which was why he had been exiled from the family.

But the strange thing was that Lin Ao's father, Lin Jiao had never lost his position as the family head after this.

The second elder had always blamed Lin Ao for all the misfortune that he had encountered in his life, even though he was from the generation above Lin Ao's. It was petty, but that was what drove him.

This had resulted in a hatred of Lin Ao that was no less than the hatred Lin Yu felt.

Lin Yu naturally hated his bigger brother for being much more talented than him and had lived in the shadow his entire life. This was something that he frequently argued with his father about, driving a wedge in between their relationship.

Since he couldn't see eye to eye with his father, he went looking for someone who hated Lin Ao as much as he did. He abandoned the faction of his father, the family head and joined the second elder's faction.

Now that both of them saw that Lin Ao was here, they naturally saw this as a chance.

The second elder followed behind Lin Yu as they headed out into the yard where Lin Fan's family was currently standing.

The door had been blown away by Lin Fan's attack earlier, so there was no need to worry about opening the door. As they came through, Lin Yu blasted away the scraps that were by the entrance and cleared the way for the second elder.

Their group came out and came down the steps in front of the door before suddenly stopping. The second elder narrowed his eyes as he looked over Lin Fan while Lin Yu glared at Lin Ao with a look filled with hatred.

After a slight pause, the second elder finally turned back to Lin Ao and said, "Lin Ao, you traitor of the family, do you know what you are doing right now?"

Lin Ao looked at the second elder for a few seconds after hearing this accusation before leaning over to whisper in Lin Fan's ear, "This is the second elder Lin Lei, be careful."

Lin Fan nodded before turning to the second elder and saying, "What right do you have to say this?"

Lin Lei looked over Lin Fan for a few more seconds before his expression relaxed and he revealed a faint smile, "This friend, I don't know what this traitor Lin Ao has offered you to do this, but you should rethink this."

Lin Fan revealed a faint smile when he heard this. It seemed like the information of this Lin Lei wasn't up to date since he wasn't able to recognize him.

Lin Yu was naturally able to recognize Lin Fan and he came forward to explain to Lin Lei, but before he could say a thing, Lin Lei raised a hand to cut him off.

Lin Lei turned back to Lin Fan and said, "This friend, if you're willing to back down, the Lin Family will consider you a friend and a guest. All you have to do is step away from this traitor Lin Ao and his family right now."
