Several other major families.
The Chen Family.
“What, you’re saying that Lin Fan, the useless young master of the Lin Family, cleaved the Huang Family in two with a single sword strike and casually subdued their ancestral leader?”
“That’s right. Lin Fan isn’t useless at all—he’s just too terrifyingly strong.”
“How could this happen…?”
The Wu Family!
The remaining six family heads, upon hearing this news, were all stunned, their faces filled with shock.
…
At the entrance of the Huang Family estate!
Huang Tailong stood trembling, his legs shaking and his eyes filled with terror.
He never imagined that Lin Fan, the so-called useless young master, could be this powerful—his own ancestor couldn’t even stand a chance, let alone himself.
“Seventh Heaven God Realm cultivator? Your strength is too weak. How dare you forcefully marry into the Lin Family? Who gave you the courage?” Lin Fan said calmly, but his words made Huang Tailong’s heart quake.
“I… I…” Huang Tailong, though older than Lin Fan, was completely silenced under Lin Fan’s oppressive aura.
Unbelievable. Simply terrifying.
At the same time, his mind screamed in frustration.
If you’re so damn strong, why hide your power for so long?
You pretended to be weak for years!
If I had known you were this powerful, I’d never have dared to provoke the Lin Family.
“Lin Family Head, please calm down your son! We of the Huang Family apologize.” Huang Yan, the head of the Huang Family, begged desperately.
Lin Haoming’s mouth was wide open, as if it could swallow an egg.
He never expected his quiet, reclusive son who rarely trained would turn out to be this domineering—truly heaven-defying.
Especially the way Huang Yan was begging, it filled Lin Haoming with a deep sense of satisfaction.
It had been decades of restraint, but today was the most satisfying day of his life.
“Lin Haoming, my son is not the useless good-for-nothing everyone claims him to be. From birth, he’s shown extraordinary martial talent. These years, he’s been diligently cultivating in silence.
And I, Lin Haoming, have never been one to show off. I simply wanted to live peacefully in Shenglong City, so I never clarified his strength. If it weren’t for your son’s outrageous actions, I’m sure my son wouldn’t have sought out the Huang Family for trouble.
After all, the Lin Family has always been low-key.”
Lin Haoming sighed.
“Yes, yes, Brother Lin, you’re absolutely right. It was my son’s mistake. Please, calm your anger.” Huang Yan lowered his head.
If their ancestor couldn’t win, what was there to fight for?
If this young man got angry and decided to wipe out the Huang Family, no one would dare to say a word.
At this moment, Lin Haoming felt as if he had just drunk a glass of icy water—refreshing and exhilarating.
“Son, since Uncle Huang has spoken like this, perhaps we should just let it go. We shouldn’t appear too petty in front of others.” Lin Haoming said.
Lin Fan glanced at Huang Yan, then flicked his wrist. Sword intent surged.
Crack!
“Ahh!”
Huang Tailong suddenly screamed in agony as both his wrists were severed.
“Since that’s settled, I’ll let it go. But you’ll have to be without your hands for three years. Any objections?” Lin Fan said.
Huang Tailong was a Seventh Heaven God Realm expert—his limbs could regenerate. However, the wound was sealed by sword qi. Unless someone stronger than a peak Ancient Realm expert came, it couldn’t be removed.
“No objections, none at all.” Huang Yan immediately replied.
Lin Fan turned and prepared to leave.
The three golden flowers of the Lin Family stood there with their mouths wide open.
“Brother, you’re just too amazing.”
“Little brother, you really knew how to hide your strength.”
Lin Shi was also stunned. Was this really her son?
Well, she wasn’t entirely wrong. This Lin Fan wasn’t truly her son—he had merely borrowed her body. But since Lin Fan had drunk her milk for a whole year, he was half her real son.
As Lin Fan followed his family away,
An old man who had been watching him closely blocked his path.
“Young man, your strength is impressive. Would you consider joining my sect?” Qingyangzi stroked his white beard, exuding an air of a high-level expert.
Lin Haoming was puzzled by the old man who blocked their way, but when he heard the word “sect,” his eyes lit up.
“Senior, may I ask which sect you belong to?” Lin Haoming immediately asked.
Sects were the most powerful organizations across the Infinite Continent.
Countless people aspired to join a sect, yet few were accepted.
Now, a sect was actually reaching out to recruit his son—how excited Lin Haoming felt.
The Huang Family members who overheard this also stopped in their tracks, drawn in by these words.
A sect!
Such a high-level, prestigious existence.
If a family member could join a sect, it would be like a phoenix rising to the heavens.
What family would even compare anymore?
“Heaven and Earth Sect.” Qingyangzi said calmly, secretly anticipating the shock on their faces.
The Heaven and Earth Sect had a grand reputation, ranking among the Nine Great Orthodox Sects of the Infinite Continent. Countless people dreamed of joining.
Sure enough…
When Qingyangzi revealed the sect’s name, everyone except Lin Fan was stunned.
“Ah, Heaven and Earth Sect! That’s incredible!” Lin Haoming exclaimed in shock, then quickly pulled Lin Fan close. “Son, this is a grand sect. If you become a disciple of Heaven and Earth Sect, you’ll bring great honor to our family.
Once that happens, who would dare call your father useless? After all, without this useless father, how could you be such a powerful son?”
Huang Yan and the Huang Family’s ancestor, upon hearing the sect’s name, also felt a chill in their hearts.
The Lin Family’s position as the top among the Eight Great Families was now undisputed.
And if this young man truly made a name for himself, even Shenglong City might no longer be big enough for the Lin Family.
At this moment, Lin Fan was secretly delighted. His first step was to join a sect, and he hadn’t expected one to approach him directly.
However, Lin Fan only intended to join a major sect.
Though the Heaven and Earth Sect had a grand reputation, its actual strength was still unclear.
If he joined and later discovered the sect wasn’t as strong as expected, he might regret it too late.
“Old man, in three days, let’s have a match. If your strength impresses me, I might consider joining the Heaven and Earth Sect.” Lin Fan said.
“Boy, you’re too arrogant!” Qingyangzi’s disciple, upon hearing this, immediately grew furious.
“Haha, excellent! In three days, I shall meet you, young gem.” Qingyangzi laughed heartily.
The surrounding crowd was once again shocked.
Especially Lin Haoming, who grew anxious.
“My son, what are you trying to do now? This is the Heaven and Earth Sect we’re talking about!” Lin Haoming exclaimed.
Lin Fan smiled, hands behind his back, and vanished into the void.
“I hope you don’t disappoint me.”
Thud!
At that moment, everyone nearly fell to their knees.
Lin Haoming almost collapsed, his heart crying out, When did my son become such a show-off? I never taught him this!
The Huang Family members were also stunned.
Reckless, domineering, and arrogant.
As for the three golden flowers of the Lin Family, their eyes sparkled with admiration.
“My little brother is so handsome.”
The other prominent families.
The Chen family.
“What? You’re saying that the so-called good-for-nothing young master of the Lin family split the Huang family in half with a single sword strike and casually subdued the Huang family’s ancestor?”
“Yes, the young master of the Lin family is no good-for-nothing. His strength is truly terrifying.”
“How could this be…”
The Wu family!
The remaining six family heads were all dumbfounded and shocked when they learned of this incident.
…
At the entrance of the Huang family!
Huang Tailong stood there trembling, his legs shaking, his eyes flickering with fear.
He never expected that the so-called good-for-nothing young master of the Lin family would be so formidable, even the ancestor was no match for him, let alone himself.
“At the seventh level of the Divine Heaven Realm, yet so weak, and you dare to forcefully marry someone from the Lin family? Who gave you the courage?” Lin Fan’s expression was calm, but his words made Huang Tailong’s heart tremble.
“I… I…” Although Huang Tailong was much older than Lin Fan, under Lin Fan’s aura, he was too scared to speak.
Terrifying, absolutely terrifying.
At the same time, he was screaming in his heart.
If you’re so powerful, why hide your strength?
Playing the good-for-nothing for so many years.
If I had known you were this powerful, I wouldn’t have dared to provoke your family.
“Master Lin, please calm your son’s anger, our Huang family apologizes.” The head of the Huang family pleaded.
Lin Haoming’s mouth was wide open, enough to fit an egg.
He never expected his usually silent and unenthusiastic son to be so domineering, it was simply unbelievable.
Especially the pleading tone of Huang Yan made Lin Haoming feel extremely satisfied.
In decades, today was the most satisfying.
“Huang Yan, my son is not the good-for-nothing as rumored. Since birth, he has shown extraordinary martial talent and has been dedicated to cultivation all these years.”
“And I, Lin Haoming, am not one to show off. I just wanted to live peacefully in Shenglong City, so I never clarified. If your son hadn’t gone too far, I don’t think my son would have troubled your Huang family.”
“After all, our Lin family has always been very low-key.”
Lin Haoming sighed.
“Yes, yes, Brother Lin is right, it was my son’s fault, please calm your anger, Brother Lin.” Huang Yan said with his head lowered.
Even the ancestor was no match, what’s the point of fighting?
If this kid gets upset and wipes out the Huang family, no one would dare to say anything.
Lin Haoming’s mood at this moment was as refreshing as drinking ice water.
“Son, since your Uncle Huang has said so, let’s just let it go. We can’t appear too petty.” Lin Haoming said.
Lin Fan glanced at Huang Yan, then moved his wrist, sword intent surged.
Crack!
“Ah!”
Huang Tailong suddenly screamed in agony, both wrists severed.
“Since that’s the case, let’s leave it at that, but your hands will remain severed for three years, any problem?” Lin Fan said.
This guy was at the seventh level of the Divine Heaven Realm, capable of regenerating limbs, but the sword energy sealed his wrists. Unless a powerhouse beyond the Ancient Realm’s peak comes, it can’t be dispelled.
“No problem, no problem.” Huang Yan immediately said.
Lin Fan turned and prepared to leave.
The three jewels of the Lin family were wide-eyed.
“Brother, you’re too amazing.”
“Little brother, you’ve hidden it so deeply.”
Mrs. Lin was also dumbfounded, is this really my son?
But Mrs. Lin wasn’t wrong, this Lin Fan was indeed not her son, just borrowing her body, but Lin Fan had also drunk her milk for a year, so he was half her own.
As Lin Fan was leaving with his family.
The old man who had been observing Lin Fan stopped him.
“Young man, not bad strength, would you like to join my sect?” Qingyangzi stroked his white beard, looking like a sage.
Lin Haoming was puzzled by the old man blocking their way, but when he heard the word “sect,” his eyes lit up.
“Senior, may I ask which sect?” Lin Haoming immediately asked.
Sects are the most powerful entities in the Endless Continent.
Countless people wish to join a sect, but not everyone is accepted.
Now a sect is actively seeking to recruit his son, how could Lin Haoming not be excited?
The Huang family members also stopped upon hearing the old man’s words, they too were captivated.
Sect!
Such a high-end and classy existence.
If a family member could join a sect, it would be like a phoenix rising from the ashes.
Family status would pale in comparison.
“The Heaven and Earth Sect.” Qingyangzi said calmly, waiting for everyone’s astonishment.
The Heaven and Earth Sect is renowned, one of the nine great sects of the Endless Continent, countless people wish to join.
Sure enough…
When Qingyangzi mentioned the sect’s name, everyone except Lin Fan was shocked.
“Ah, the Heaven and Earth Sect, that’s incredible.” Lin Haoming said in shock, then immediately pulled Lin Fan, “Son, this is a major sect. If you become a disciple of the Heaven and Earth Sect, it would bring great honor to our family.”
“At that time, who would dare say your father is useless, after all, without your father, how could you have such an amazing son?”
The Huang family head and ancestor also tensed upon hearing the sect’s name.
The Lin family being the top of the eight families is inevitable.
Moreover, if this kid really makes a name for himself, Shenglong City might not be able to contain the Lin family.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan was inwardly delighted, the first step was to join a sect, but he never expected the sect to come to him.
However, Lin Fan wanted to join a major sect.
Although the Heaven and Earth Sect is famous, its actual strength is unclear.
If he joined and later found out the sect wasn’t up to par, it would be too late to cry.
“Old man, fight me in three days. If your strength satisfies me, I might consider joining the Heaven and Earth Sect.” Lin Fan said.
“Kid, you’re too arrogant.” The disciples beside Qingyangzi were angered by his words.
“Haha, good, in three days, I will test this jade of yours.” Qingyangzi laughed.
The surrounding people were once again shocked.
Especially Lin Haoming, who was anxious.
“My son, what are you doing? This is the Heaven and Earth Sect.” Lin Haoming said.
Lin Fan smiled, hands behind his back, and vanished into the void.
“Hope you don’t disappoint me.”
Thud!
At this moment, everyone almost knelt.
Lin Haoming nearly fell to the ground, inwardly exclaiming, when did my son become so good at showing off? I never taught him that.
The Huang family members were also dumbfounded.
Arrogant, domineering, and overbearing.
But for the three jewels of the Lin family, their eyes sparkled.
“Brother is so handsome.”
“Brother is so domineering.”
…
Qingyangzi looked into the distance, “This kid is quite domineering.”
“Elder, let us teach this kid a lesson, he’s too ignorant of the heights of heaven and the depths of earth.” The disciples were furious, feeling this kid was too arrogant.
To be noticed by the Heaven and Earth Sect is a blessing from several lifetimes.
“No need.” Qingyangzi waved his hand, his expression calm.
…
Qingyangzi gazed into the distance. “This young man is quite domineering.”
“Master, let us teach him a lesson. He’s too arrogant and disrespectful!” The disciples were furious, feeling the young man was too presumptuous.
Being noticed by the Heaven and Earth Sect was a blessing earned through countless lifetimes.
“No need.” Qingyangzi waved his hand calmly.
