Chapter 57 Shocked Lin Zhentian, the Number One in the Lin Family!
Compared to Lin Dong's astonishment, Lin Yan appeared much calmer.
Therefore, upon hearing Lin Dong's words, Lin Yan just smiled lightly and shrugged, "There's nothing I can do. They wanted to target the Lin Family, so I had to kill them all."
Lin Dong's mouth twitched upon hearing this.
Looking at Lin Yan, his gaze became somewhat strange.
If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, Lin Dong wouldn't have believed that his usually gentle and refined elder brother could be so ruthless when he acted.
He had single-handedly killed so many people, not letting a single one of them live, completely wiping them out.
This gave Lin Dong a whole new understanding of Lin Yan. Not only was he incredibly strong, but he was also ruthless when facing enemies!
However, Lin Dong also knew that what Lin Yan did was right.
After all, these people were all enemies. If they weren't dealt with, the disciples of their Lin Family would be the ones in real trouble.
So, compared to their Lin Family disciples, it was definitely better for these troublemakers from the Black Dragon Gang to die.
"What's wrong, afraid of me?" Lin Yan asked with a smile when he saw this.
Lin Dong shook his head, "No, what Brother Lin Yan did is right. I'm just surprised that Brother Lin Yan could be so ruthless."
Lin Yan smiled and didn't say much.
After this, they quickly noticed Lin Ken and the others rushing towards them.
Because the battle happened outside the Ironwood Manor, the commotion quickly spread inside the manor.
So, Lin Ken, who had sensed the disturbance inside the manor, immediately rushed over with people.
Unexpectedly, at the scene, they witnessed this extremely bloody scene.
"Ugh."
Lin Hong and the others had never killed anyone.
So, after arriving at the scene, seeing the corpses everywhere made them pale, feeling nauseous, and couldn't help but vomit.
"Lin Yan, Lin Dong, what are you two doing here?" Lin Ken, the first to notice Lin Dong and Lin Yan standing here, asked with some confusion.
"The people from the Black Dragon Gang were planning to attack the Ironwood Manor while Grandpa and the others were away."
"I guess the Lei family got the news and found out about the Yang Yuan Stone vein inside the Ironwood Manor, so they planned to destroy it while they had the chance!" Lin Yan explained to Lin Ken.
"So, they're from the Black Dragon Gang?" Lin Ken was stunned, looking at the fallen flags in front, he quickly recognized their identities.
"Is that so! The head of the Black Dragon Gang, Yan Ku, and the second in command, Wu Sha! They actually came too?"
He was somewhat shocked and asked Lin Dong and Lin Yan, "So, you two killed all these people?"
Lin Ken didn't mean to blame them, but what was happening before his eyes was so shocking that he couldn't help but feel excited when talking to them.
"It's not."
Lin Dong shook his head at Lin Ken's question.
Lin Ken breathed a sigh of relief.
"I knew it! With so many people from the Black Dragon Gang, how could you two possibly..."
But before Lin Ken could finish, Lin Dong continued, "Actually, it was Brother Lin Yan who did it alone."
"I suddenly felt that I was about to break through and couldn't wait, so I broke through on the side."
"I was planning to join Brother Lin Yan after the breakthrough. Who knew that after the breakthrough, Brother Lin Yan would single-handedly wipe out the people from the Black Dragon Gang."
This time, Lin Ken was completely dumbfounded when he looked at Lin Yan.
His mouth was so wide open that it could almost fit an apple.
Looking at Lin Yan was like looking at a monster.
He stood there dumbfounded for a long time before finally managing to come back to his senses. Then, he asked Lin Yan, "Lin Yan, what's your current level of cultivation?"
Lin Yan knew he couldn't hide it, so he admitted openly, "Mid-stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm."
As soon as he said this, a powerful aura surged from Lin Yan's body.
Sensing this terrifying aura, Lin Xia and the others felt a pressure in their chests, and even Lin Ken couldn't help but stare.
"Mid-stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm!"
"So fast?"
"You, this child, are you growing so quickly?"
Lin Ken was at a loss for words for a long time before he managed to say these words.
Finally, when he looked at Lin Yan, his gaze became very envious.
"Such talent is truly awe-inspiring!"
He said to Lin Yan, "When Father comes back, he'll be surprised too."
"After all, your growth rate is indeed somewhat outrageous."
Lin Ken quickly ordered people to start cleaning up.
And Lin Yan was arranged by Lin Ken to rest.
After all, Lin Yan's status in the Lin Family was even higher than Lin Ken's now.
He didn't dare to let him do such things.
And this time, Lin Yan can be said to have made great contributions.
If it weren't for Lin Yan wiping out this group of people from the Black Dragon Gang, with Lin Zhentian and the others absent, they might have been in big trouble.
After returning home, Lin Yan quickly began to rest.
After all, in the battle, he had set up so many Fire Spirit Arrays in succession. Even though they were only first-order arrays, the consumption they caused him was quite considerable.
So as soon as Lin Yan returned home, he immediately fell asleep.
So much so that when Lin Zhentian and the others returned to the Lin Family after selling the Yang Yuan Stones, Lin Yan didn't go out to greet them.
Outside the Ironwood Manor, as the sun gradually set, Lin Zhentian and the others rode in carriages back to their territory.
They were very satisfied with the results of this sale, and they chatted and laughed all the way.
But when they passed through the area where Lin Yan had fought with the warriors from the Black Dragon Gang earlier, they saw Lin Ken leading a group of Lin Family members cleaning up the bodies.
Smelling the strong smell of burning and blood in the air, Lin Xiao's face changed suddenly, "Something's wrong!"
He quickly got off the carriage and shouted at Lin Ken ahead, "Brother, what's wrong? How did it become like this here?"
Lin Ken also looked at Lin Xiao and quickly saw Lin Mang and Lin Zhentian who followed behind him. His tone became somewhat heavy as he said to them, "After you left, the head and the second in command of the Black Dragon Gang came with people."
Lin Zhentian was so angry that he was about to explode. Without waiting for Lin Ken to continue, he shouted angrily, "Black Dragon Gang, if I don't wipe you out, I'm not Lin!"
"Go, follow me to the Black Dragon Gang!"
After saying that, he was about to lead people to the Black Dragon Gang with a fierce momentum.
Fortunately, Lin Ken stopped him directly.
"Father, wait, listen to me first."
Lin Ken said helplessly to Lin Zhentian, the latter's impulsive temperament made him quite helpless.
"What else to say, so many of our clansmen died!"
"Don't I avenge them?" Lin Zhentian roared.
Lin Ken quickly explained, "These bodies are all from the Black Dragon Gang."
"Father, look, the head and the second in command of the Black Dragon Gang are dead."
"The elites they brought are all dead."
"As for our Lin Family, not a single person was injured. Why are you in such a hurry!"
Lin Zhentian's originally irritable mood was suddenly stunned by Lin Ken's words.
The more he thought about it, the more unreasonable it seemed.
He looked puzzled and confirmed again, "What you said is true?"
Lin Ken nodded, "It must be true. Can I still lie to you about this kind of thing?"
"Don't believe me, ask everyone else."
After saying that, Lin Ken looked back at Lin Xiao and the others.
Lin Xiao and the others all showed determined gazes towards Lin Zhentian.
And after seeing this, Lin Zhentian became even more shocked.
He knew the strength of Yan Ku and Wu Sha very well.
Both of them were experts in the Heavenly Yuan Realm.
Their strength was not inferior to Lin Ken's.
With them leading the troops, Lin Ken's side should have been unable to hold on. How did they end up being completely defeated in the end?
No matter how hard he thought, Lin Zhentian couldn't understand it. He asked Lin Ken, "Then who killed these people? Don't tell me it was you."
Lin Ken shrugged helplessly.
"Father, how could I have such ability!"
"These people were all killed by Brother Lin Yan alone."
"Father, it was Yan Ku and Wu Sha, along with so many warriors from the Black Dragon Gang!"
"He killed them all by himself."
"He didn't even tell us. If we hadn't heard the commotion and come to see, we wouldn't have known."
Lin Zhentian was completely dumbfounded on the spot, standing still for a long time.
"Yan'er killed them all by himself?"
"Has his strength become so strong already?"
But soon Lin Zhentian came back to his senses and started to worry about Lin Yan's situation, nervously asking Lin Ken, "Did Yan'er get injured?"
Lin Ken quickly shook his head at Lin Zhentian's question, explaining, "Not even a scratch. He should have gone back home to rest by now."
Lin Zhentian's gaze became even more shocked.
With his own power, he wiped out so many people from the Black Dragon Gang without any injuries. Even he might not be able to do such a thing.
But Lin Yan managed to do it.
This made Lin Zhentian feel extremely happy! After all, they were from the Lin Family! If Lin Yan is strong, then the Lin Family is strong!
"Well done, Yan'er, this time! We must reward him well afterwards!"
Lin Zhentian smiled happily and said.
"Do you want him to come and see you?" Lin Ken first nodded at Lin Zhentian, then asked Lin Zhentian.
But the latter shook his head when he heard Lin Ken's words, and quickly instructed Lin Ken, "Don't disturb Yan'er's rest!"
"After experiencing such a big battle, even if he's not injured, he must be very tired!"
"Tell those who pass by Yan'er's house to be quiet, don't shout and make noise every day. If they disturb Yan'er's rest, I won't spare them."
Lin Zhentian's arrangements were extremely meticulous, and he said to Lin Ken in front of him.
"And, quickly let people prepare dinner. Yan'er will be hungry after resting for so long. Don't let him go hungry!"
