Lin Dahong couldn’t help but smile wryly. Lin Xun has summoned Third Old Zhu every so often but this is the territory of the North Light Lin Clan! Isn’t he worried about causing a catastrophic disaster?

Lin Xun indeed wasn’t worried. His situation was already very bad. He knew people would try to bully him even more if he behaved cowardly!

He had hoped to win the support of the North Light Lin Clan, but if not, it didn’t matter.

He had already become enemies with the West Creek, Cloud Weight and Flying Peak Lin Clan. It didn’t matter to him if he made another enemy.

Of course, that would be the worst outcome. He just hoped that the North Light Lin Clan wouldn’t make things too difficult for him. Fortunately, he didn’t run into any more troubles or obstructions along the way. Soon, under Lin Dahong’s guidance, he came to the training grounds.

It was an extremely spacious area paved with tough stones and covered with extraordinary rune arrays. The surroundings of the training grounds were already crowded with thousands of people of all ages!

“Why are there so many people?” asked Lin Xun.

Lin Dahong explained, “There are only hundreds of clan members in the North Light Lin Clan. The rest are relatives and guests.”

Lin Xun nodded while complicated feelings swirled in his heart. If the Lin Family hadn’t suffered that tragedy, we would have many more clan members, right?

“Look, I think that kid is Lin Xun!”

“Hmph! Uncle Daqian said that he bullied other clan members just now and even treated him rudely. He is so arrogant.”

“He even dared to come here! Ignorant people are indeed fearless!”

“I don’t know what Patriarch North Light thinks of that kid. He even arranged for Brother Xuefeng to have a duel with him. This is showing him too much grace!”

Clamor broke out from the crowd when they noticed Lin Xun.

Those voices of disdain, displeasure, anger and contempt made it obvious that most of the members of the North Light Lin Clan were against Lin Xun’s visit. Although Lin Xun had already expected their response, he was still a little surprised to see it.

“Lin Xun, you should be more tolerant and don’t get angry anymore to avoid causing

a huge disaster. If you do, even Patriarch North Light can’t do anything to help you,” Lin Dahong whispered imploringly.

Lin Xun’s terrifying means of the attack shocked him, and he was very worried that Lin Xun would go crazy again.

“Yes, I won’t.” Lin Xun smiled, looking relaxed.

However, his indifferent manner made Lin Dahong smile wryly. That kid…where did he get such courage?

Fortunately, someone came to rescue Lin Dahong. It was a middle-aged man in a purple robe who had jet-black hair and eyes as deep as an abyss. He exuded a confident and graceful bearing. He strode towards them and first glanced at Third Old Zhu and Lin Zhong before he turned to Lin Xun and asked, “You are Lin Xun?”

Lin Dahong quickly introduced him, “Lin Xun, this is Lin Huaiyuan, the head of the North Light Lin Clan, your clan elder uncle.”

“I pay respects to Elder Uncle.” Lin Xun bowed with a cupped fist salute.

“Good, since you came, you must be ready for the duel. You can head to the training grounds and wait there. Xuefeng will be there soon.”

Lin Huaiyuan exuded authority. He was neither happy nor angry, making it impossible to read his mind.

“Okay.” Lin Xun nodded.

Lin Xun’s quick answer surprised Lin Huaiyuan a little. He couldn’t help but take a deep look at Lin Xun and said, “Just do your best. It is fine to admit defeat. No one in the North Light Lin Clan will make things difficult for you.”

Lin Xun said with a smile, “Elder Uncle, thank you for the reminder.”

From beginning to end, Lin Xun acted politely and showed little emotional changes.

“Go ahead.” Lin Huaiyuan said nothing else.

Lin Xun asked Lin Zhong and Third Old Zhu Lao to wait for him while he headed into the training grounds alone.

The people waiting there were suddenly stirred up and broke into an uproar.

“Look, that kid dares to take the challenge!”

“Hmph, ignorant people indeed have no fear. If he knew how strong Xuefeng is, he would regret agreeing to the duel.”

“Haha, but this works out better. I am already very annoyed to hear the kid claims that he’s the leader of Mind Cleansing Peak. It would be great if Xuefeng can teach him a lesson.”

All sorts of mocking and contemptuous remarks rang out one after another.

Lin Xun’s graceful figure calmly moved forward amidst the waves of voices like he was unaffected in any way.

As he came to the center of the training grounds, he stood quietly, looked down and lowered his head, like a monk entering a meditative state. His calm behavior astonished many people because they knew many youngsters would have lost their composure. Lin Xun didn’t. However, most people subconsciously believed that Lin Xun was acting tough. After all, he was only at the Heaven Dipper Stage. He was doomed to lose to an unrivaled talent such as Lin Xuefeng regardless if he had cultivated a calm state of mind!

He looked like a broken jar.

“Hey, Lin Xun, I advise you to surrender now! Do you think you can challenge Big Brother Xuefeng? You don’t know what’s good for you,” a woman uttered coldly.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t do something so embarrassing. If you’re smart, you will admit defeat now. Then, perhaps, people will look at you differently.”

Regardless of how grating the mocking remarks were, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged.

Lin Zhong’s face grew overcast, and his heart ached with helplessness. If the Lin Family still had their tremendous power, who would dare humiliate Young Master?

The clansmen of the collateral branches have gone too far!

Lin Dahong looked deeply worried. But it wasn’t because he found it unfair for Lin Xun. Rather, he was worried that Lin Xun wouldn’t be able to tolerate the humiliation and go crazy again.

Only Third Old Zhu stood there silently like a statue.

However, no one seemed to notice the flicker of strange light that flashed in the depths of his eyes when they swept over Lin Xun.

“Everyone, forgive me for being late.” Suddenly, a clear and sonorous voice rang in the distance.

It was just one sentence but everyone’s expression changed. Their faces lit up with excitement and admiration as they cheered. Some women even screamed.

“Big Brother Xuefeng! Big Brother Xuefeng is here!”

“Hahaha, a good show is about to start. Big Brother Xuefeng has already demonstrated his unrivaled strength in the national exams a few days ago and made a successful breakthrough. Compared to him, Lin Xun is just a clown.”

A divine arc of misty rain spread across the sky and a youngster in white trod lightly across it. His eyes sparkled like stars and his brows were fierce like swords. A feathered hat crowned his face. He exuded a misty aura as he strolled across the sky, looking leisurely yet extraordinary.

Some people were extraordinary from one glance. Lin Xuefeng was such a person. His bearing alone was superior to those of ordinary people.

Whoosh!

He hovered down into the arena like a crane standing among a flock of chickens. Thunderous cheers erupted from the crowd.

“I haven’t seen Xuefeng in many years. He has grown so much but he likes to show off his talent too much. He likely will encounter many setbacks in the future,” Lin Zhong uttered quietly.

”Lin Zhong, what did you say!?” Lin Dahong’s eyes widened.

He didn’t dare to scold Lin Xun, but he had no respect for an old servant like Lin Zhong. Lin Zhong gave an awkward smile but didn’t explain himself.

Lin Xun raised his eyes, studying Lin Xuefeng who was dozens of feet away. From one glance, he could tell that his opponent was at the Spirit Sea Stage and had innate power lingering threateningly around his body.

“You’re Lin Xun? Sorry to keep you waiting.”

Lin Xuefeng peered at Lin Xun. The cheering and applause died away as he spoke, which made him appear even more powerful and extraordinary.

“It’s fine,” said Lin Xun nonchalantly.

“I know that you are the direct descendant of Uncle Wenjing. Since we’re from the same clan, I have some advice for you,” said Lin Xuefeng

“Please go ahead.”

“I have always had the goal to lead the entire Lin Family back to Mind Cleansing Peak and restore our former glory, which includes getting revenge for our clan.”

Lin Xuefeng’s voice was resounding. “My great-grandfather had always reminded me of this. I will never forget the humiliation we suffered and the hatred we have towards the enemy. Your return has given me an opportunity!”

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows. “What opportunity?”

Lin Xuefeng’s eyes were fixed on Lin Xun like a bolt of lightning as he said each word loudly and clearly, “An opportunity to take charge of Mind Cleansing Peak, solve our internal troubles, and unify the Lin Clan!”

His voice, sonorous and full of confidence, drew applause from the audience.

Lin Huaiyuan, Lin Daqian and Lin Dahong couldn’t help but smile and nod proudly.

On the contrary, Lin Zhong’s face darkened. He said it very nicely, but his intention was very vicious. He just wants to take away the power that Young Master rightfully inherited.

Lin Xun smiled. “Your ambitions are a little too big. I also have some advice for you. Don’t be too ambitious.”

Lin Xuefeng scrunched his brows but before he spoke, the people around broke into an uproar.

“Little trash, what are you saying?”

“Nonsense! Is that something you can say?”

“Big Brother Xuefeng, ignore him. Talking to him will just lower yourself!”

Lin Xuefeng waved his hand, signaling the commotion to stop. Then, he calmly looked at Lin Xun and said, “You don’t need to look so conflicted. As your elder brother, I won’t let you be treated coldly. On the contrary, if you hand over Mind Cleansing Peak, I can promise that you will receive the same status and identity as any other clansmen. Also, I will help you get revenge.”

After a pause, superior confidence gleamed in his eyes as he continued, “I sincerely mean it. You should know that I’m more suitable to take over Mind Cleansing Peak in every aspect compared to you!”

He spoke righteously and seemed to be taking Lin Xun and the entire Lin Family into consideration. The spectators couldn’t help but erupt with applause and cheers again.

Lin Xun fell silent, a cold intent swirling in the depths of his dark eyes.
