A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality and I Become a God
Chapter Summary
"As expected, the Lin family had been prepared all along." Meanwhile, when Wu Yifan made his move again, he and Duan De were much more cautious. "Everyone, you must already know that the descendants of the Duan family have reached the level of killing an Immortal Emperor in such a short time. At this moment, Wu Yifan and the others were unaware that Lin Tianen had already gone to Rufeng Pavilion, and were still thinking about their next move.
"As expected, the Lin family had been prepared all along."
Meanwhile, when Wu Yifan made his move again, he and Duan De were much more cautious. With the help of the Concealing Profound Pearl, the two carefully surveyed the area around the target tomb for a long time and finally discovered a mid-stage Immortal Emperor hidden nearby.
Sensing the other party's level of cultivation, Duan De looked at Wu Yifan with a solemn expression and asked a question.
"Holy Son, are you confident you can defeat the opponent?"
"It's not a big problem. We can take him out in one move. But if we take him out, it will definitely attract the attention of other Lin family experts. So we must resolve this matter here as soon as possible, find out the situation inside, and ensure that we can take the things in the tomb away as quickly as possible after we make our move."
Wu Yifan nodded in agreement. The power of the twelfth level of the Ancient Sacred Body was enough to easily deal with a Celestial Emperor, but if the commotion here were to erupt, the Lin family would probably send out a Celestial Venerable. If he were to be held back, he would likely fall into immeasurable trouble.
Upon hearing this, Duan De nodded, and then the two of them used the Concealing Fortune Pearl to enter the tomb. After figuring out the situation inside, they prepared to take action.
"Strange, why do I have this uneasy feeling?"
Lin Zhenying looked somewhat surprised. The family had sent him here to guard the ancestral tomb for a period of time, and he didn't think there would be any danger. Although the previous incident had made the clan members uneasy, those two thieves had only escaped from the hands of the Immortal King.
If they were to face me, at best they could only escape from my side; how could they possibly destroy me?
With this thought in mind, Lin Zhenying felt relieved and shook his head with a smile.
But the next second he felt a chill from behind. Before he could think, a spear appeared in his hand and he thrust it behind him.
Wu Yifan hadn't expected the other party to react so quickly, but he simply dodged the attack by slightly turning his body, and then punched the other party directly.
The terrifying power caused the opponent to disappear in the blink of an eye, instantly blasted to death.
At the very moment the other party died, Lin Tianen, who was in the Lin family, did not have time to go into seclusion and said with an extremely ugly expression.
"Oh no, something's happened!"
Almost simultaneously, Wu Yifan and Duan De also rushed into the tomb, sweeping away the burial goods and even the clothes without leaving any behind. After all, the clothes worn by the Immortal Emperor could not possibly be ordinary items, and someone would definitely want them if they were sold.
In the blink of an eye, within just a few seconds, Wu Yifan and Duan De had swept the entire tomb clean and then fled the scene at lightning speed.
Just seconds after they left, an extremely terrifying aura enveloped the area around the tomb, and it was none other than Lin Tianen, who had arrived at top speed.
However, no matter how fast Lin Tianen was, he still couldn't stop Wu Yifan and Duan De.
After leaving the tomb of the Lin family patriarch, Wu Yifan activated the Concealing Fortune Pearl to hide their whereabouts. Even Lin Tianen had no way of discovering where Wu Yifan and his group went.
"Damn it, these two little thieves have actually reached the level of being comparable to an Immortal Emperor so quickly?"
Lin Tianen's face was as black as a pot. He obviously did not expect that Wu Yifan and Duan De could kill the Immortal Emperor so quickly. Although the element of surprise attack may have played a large part, it was enough to show how monstrous Wu Yifan and Duan De were.
This made Lin Tianen vaguely worried. His son said that when they first met, he could kill them with ease. In less than a hundred years, he had reached the level of killing Immortal Emperors. If they were given another thousand or ten thousand years, wouldn't even he himself be no match for them?
Thinking of this, Lin Tianen took a deep breath and quickly returned to the Lin family to convene a family meeting.
As news of Lin Tianen spread, the Lin family's high-ranking members all arrived at the clan's main hall, but their expressions were extremely grim, clearly indicating that they knew what had just happened.
"Everyone, you must already know that the descendants of the Duan family have reached the level of killing an Immortal Emperor in such a short time. If we give them more time, I'm afraid our Lin family will soon have no chance left."
"That treasure allowed the other party to break through to the level of an Immortal Emperor in such a short time. If our Lin family were to obtain it, it might be able to cultivate an Immortal Emperor for our Lin family."
"Therefore, I plan to ask Rufeng Pavilion to deduce the positions of those two boys for us. Now that I've finished speaking, who agrees and who disagrees?"
After saying that, Lin Tianen stood up and looked at the Lin family executives present, his tone full of noncommittal.
But Lin Tianyu and Lin Tianqin stood up and said in unison.
"Absolutely not. We have very little information about those two thieves. If we rashly let Rufeng Pavilion make a deduction, the price we pay may be unbearable even for our Lin family."
"So what if it's unbearable? Don't forget, we're in a life-or-death situation right now. If we don't nip their growth in the bud, the Lin family will be the ones who die in the end!"
Lin Tianen stood up, his voice filled with anger.
Seeing this, Lin Tianyu and Lin Tianqin hesitated for only a moment before agreeing. Indeed, it was a life-or-death situation. Taking action while the opponent could only kill an Immortal Emperor would give them a better chance of winning. But if they waited until the opponent could kill an Immortal Venerable, then their Lin family would be in danger.
After everyone agreed, Lin Tianen stood up, went to the clan's treasury to collect enough resources, and then set off towards the Central Region's Rufeng Pavilion.
At this moment, Wu Yifan and the others were unaware that Lin Tianen had already gone to Rufeng Pavilion, and were still thinking about their next move.
"Holy Son, what should our next step be?"
Duan De looked at Wu Yifan with eyes full of admiration, while Wu Yifan spoke without hesitation.
"Strike while the iron is hot, raid a few more of the Lin family's patriarch's tombs, then play it safe and develop your strength. Otherwise, judging from the Lin family's situation, the next target will be a Celestial Venerable!"
"Yes, Holy Son, I'll do whatever you say!"
Duan De nodded in agreement without hesitation.
The two then headed towards the location of the next Lin family ancestor's tomb. Around that tomb, Lin Xukun was guarding the area with ten Immortal Emperor level experts and one Immortal Venerable level expert.
As for the other two Immortal Venerables, they were transferred back to the Lin family, supposedly for important matters.
At this moment, Lin Xukun suddenly felt a chill, as if something terrible was about to happen.
