Zhu Ziyang blinked her beautiful eyes, pursed her lips and said, "Are they here to confirm that you've really broken through to the Arterial Circulation Realm, or are they regretting chasing you out after knowing that you've become so powerful?"

Lin Cheng shook his head, "I don't care what they think."

He did not want to think about what the Lin Clan would think, because regardless of what the Lin Clan wanted to do or thought about, it had nothing to do with him.

In this Dongluo City, the only people who were related to him were Chen Hong and his wife. Now that he had offended them, Lin City had decided to give up on the idea of visiting Chen Hong.

Of course, if the Lin Family members felt regretful that they did not kill him back then, now that they found out that he had appeared in Dongluo City, they would want to after him. Then, Lin City would definitely not mind letting the Lin Family know just how foolish their actions were.

Lin Clan.

In the main courtyard.

"Mother!" A handsome young man with an extraordinary appearance walked into the yard quickly. "I heard from someone that Lin City has appeared in Dongluo City?"

"Xing'er, how many times have I told you this? You are the young master of the Lin Clan, and in the future, you will be the head of the Lin Clan. How can you be so flustered!"

Tan Yulan frowned and looked at her son, Lin Xing. However, her tone of voice was completely different from the usual cold tone she used when reprimanding others, and it even had a trace of doting.

This young man was the genius younger brother of Lin City, as well as the Lin Clan's second young master, Lin Xing.

However, the current Lin Xing was no longer related to the title of Lin Clan's Second Young Master. He was the dignified Lin Clan's Eldest Young Master!

He was also the only young master!

"Mother, what are you talking about? How could I be flustered? I think this is a rare opportunity!"

Lin Xing said excitedly: "Since Lin City has appeared in Dongluo City, and I heard that he even beat up one of Apothecary Gong's sons, then I might as well go meet him and capture him and give him to Apothecary Gong. That way, not only can we become good friends with Apothecary Gong, but also let others know that Lin City is not as talented as others say!"

Tan Yulan's brows suddenly tightened when she heard this, and then she relaxed, "Xing'er, mother knows that you are brooding over the fact that there are still people in the family who speak ill of you behind your back. However, although you have broken through to the Arterial Circulation Realm, your father said that you have not heard of it yet, and are still unable to compare with a true expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm …"

"Mother!"

Tan Yulan hadn't finished speaking when she was interrupted by Lin Xing's shout.

A hint of anger appeared in his eyes. "Could it be that Mother agrees with those people, that Lin Cheng is even more talented than me, and that he should be the Lin Clan's eldest son?"

Tan Yulan shook her head and said, "Xing'er, you have to understand this. No matter what kind of talent that little bastard has, whether he's a prodigy or a mediocre talent, he has nothing to do with you anymore. You are the young master of the Lin Family, the only young master, and that little bastard is merely an outsider who has been expelled from the family! "

Lin Xing couldn't help but say, "However, many people secretly say that Lin Yu is already an expert in the Arterial Circulation Realm. His strength is shocking and his talent isn't bad …"

"So what?"

Tan Yulan interrupted her son and asked softly.

Lin Xing was stunned.

Tan Yulan said, "Xing'er, mother knows that when you heard the private discussions of others, you feel uncomfortable, right? So, you want to prove to others that you are the young master of the Lin Clan, not only because of your background, but also because your talent and strength are not something that little bastard can match up to, right? "

Seeing Lin Xing nod unnaturally, Tan Yulan couldn't help but smile: "Xing'er, because you knew that the little bastard injured Gong Yuanzi and his subordinates, you also believe that he has become an expert, right?"

"Isn't it?"

Hearing this, Lin Xing hesitated slightly, "I know that Gong Yuzhao. Although I haven't fought with him, I know that his strength is not bad. He didn't just rely on the realm that his father gave him. His own talent is also not bad."

This was also the reason why Lin Xing was slightly agitated in her heart.

He knew that Gong Yuanzhi wasn't as terrible as people claimed to be. At least, compared to the younger generation, even if Gong Yuanzhao lacked combat experience due to his unstable foundation, he was still not someone that could be defeated easily.

After all, even if one relied on pills to accumulate strength, it was still strength!

Thus, Lin Xing realized that the elder brother that was expelled from the family very possibly became an expert!

This discovery caused Lin Xing to feel uncomfortable in his heart.

In addition, there were some people in the family who were secretly discussing how harsh Tan Yulan had been on Lin Yu all these years. If it wasn't for that, perhaps Lin Yu's strength would have been much stronger, and the Lin Family would have gained another Pulse Wheel Realm master!

This wasn't all. According to the personal attendant, the Lin Family even had people who had received the favor of the First Wife before, privately feeling pity for Eldest Young Master Lin Yu, thinking that Second Wife Tan Yulan was too harsh on Lin Yu, delaying Lin Yu's chance to cultivate, and also giving Lin Yu pitifully few cultivation resources.

They thought that if Lin Yu hadn't received such unfair treatment, then perhaps he would have long since become an expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm, and might even be able to surpass the young generation of Dongluo City!

Even until now, he had only received a relatively outstanding evaluation. As for the young generation of Dongluo City, no one had even mentioned this before. But now, he was actually being used on Lin Yu.

This made Lin Xing extremely angry!

Looking at her son's fretful expression, Tan Yulan only smiled and said, "Xing'er, what's the strength of that little b * stard? Is it really that important?"

Lin Xing immediately said, "Is it not important? "His strength will directly affect others' evaluation of my mother and me …"

"Outsiders' comments?"

Tan Yulan shook her head and smiled, "Xing'er, let those people talk about it. You don't need to worry or feel irritated, because there won't be any more discussions and comments."

Seeing her son's puzzled expression, Tan Yulan sneered. "People won't pay much attention to a dead man."

Lin Xing was stunned.

"Xing'er, think about it. After injuring Apothecary Gong's son, not to mention that the little bastard's cultivation is only at the first and second level of the Arterial Circulation Realm. Even if he is at the fourth and fifth level, what can he do?"

Tan Yulan sneered, "How could Apothecary Gong let go of a madman who injured his son on the busy streets of the city? If he were to let that little bastard off, it would be equivalent to having his face ripped off and stepped on. Do you think that an alchemist who has the prestige to return to his side will be able to swallow this anger? "

"Mother, I understand what you're saying, but …"

"Since you understand, then you should know that the little bastard will definitely not live for more than a few days. I'm afraid that he might even die today in Dongluo City. Do you think that there is any meaning in arguing with a dead man?"

"This …"

Lin Xing was stunned. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Tan Yulan said softly, "Xing'er, don't worry. No matter what happens, Mother will never let anyone threaten you. It doesn't matter whether that little bastard has a fortuitous encounter or is just bluffing, because …"

She coldly snorted and didn't continue speaking. However, her heart was filled with killing intent as she spoke to herself.

Because that little beast should never have come back!

If one of these people was unwilling to see Lin City return, it would undoubtedly be Tan Yulan.

Especially when she heard that Lin City had grown so much in strength that it was even possible that he was already an expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm, she panicked.

Tan Yulan felt a sense of urgency. She had never expected Lin City to return!

Tan Yulan had been feeling uneasy ever since the failure to kill Lin City two years ago. The pills that Lin City refined had caused a sensation throughout the entire Dongluo City and made her feel as if she was sitting on pins and needles.

For the next year or so, there was no news of Lin City, which gradually calmed Tan Yulan down. She believed Lin City must have died somewhere, so she gradually stopped thinking about that little beast and focused on how she could hold the entire Lin Clan in her hands.

But now, Lin City had returned!

A surge of uncontrollable panic rose from Tan Yulan's heart, pressing down on her heart to the point where she almost couldn't breathe.

She was very clear that based on the grudge between her and Lin City, only one person would survive once Lin City returned.

And if she was the one to die, then even her son, Lin Xing, would be implicated and would definitely be taken revenge by Lin City. How could Tan Yulan be willing to sit idly by and watch this happen?

But luckily, the person who Lin City beat up was actually Apothecary Gong's son. That also meant that Lin City was going to have bad luck.

How could Tan Yulan miss such an opportunity?

Thus, she immediately made some arrangements in her family. Not only did she take out high quality herbs, she even directly sent people to help Apothecary Gong. She only had one reason for all of this, and that was, she must kill Lin Cheng!

Only a dead person would not pose a threat to her and her son!

"Lin Cheng, you escaped two years ago. This time, you will not have the chance to do so again!"

Tan Yulan sneered in her heart, "An expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm?" As long as you are not a cultivator, you can forget about leaving Dongluo City! "

"Madam!"

Suddenly, the servant's voice came from outside, "Madam, there's news! He's still in Dongluo City. It seems he wants to leave the city. "

Tan Yulan's eyes lit up, "Good! It's good that they're still in Dongluo City. Have the notifications returned yet? "

The servant said, "He has already been sent to notify them. Presumably, Apothecary Gong has already received the news."

"Very good!"

Tan Yulan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's see how this little b * stard is going to be so arrogant this time! An expert of the Arterial Circulation Realm? "Humph!"
