Chapter 327: Supernatural Secrets
Carrying various emotions, Li Xiangqin arrived before the room where Lin Chao was staying.
The doorbell rang, a calm "Come in" drifted out, and the door opened in an instant.
Li Xiangqin was slightly stunned, and accompanied by Linda, the two entered the room.
Lin Chao sat on a chair, holding a book in his hands, looking quite refined.
For some reason, seeing Lin Chao's face, Li Xiangqin felt her face flush and her heart race.
Little brother is getting more and more handsome.
Beside her, Linda's gaze was filled with awe.
After all, the man before her could be called the well-deserved Century King.
Even the Speaker of Li Zhu Country could be replaced at his whim.
In other words, if Lin Chao wished, the hundreds of countries in this world might even unify, and he would be the sole Emperor.
"Brother Lin Chao, long time no see. I have come to thank you on behalf of my father." Li Xiangqin still remembered the purpose of her visit; she naturally would not forget the words her father had entrusted to her.
"Mm." Lin Chao's reaction was very calm.
"Currently, Li Zhu Country is in ruins waiting to be rebuilt, and the Speaker cannot return to the country." Linda added from the side, speaking fluent Daxia Language.
The current Li Guoliang was the Speaker of Li Zhu Country.
It was not so simple for him to return to Daxia; he needed to go through diplomatic channels.
"Mm." Lin Chao did not mind.
To him, these matters were all trivial.
The three of them spoke in a lukewarm manner.
Li Xiangqin was the first to take her leave. Before departing, she still peeked at Lin Chao secretly, feeling incomparably curious and having many guesses in her heart.
Her meeting with Lin Chao this time was also done secretly according to her father's instructions.
She guessed that perhaps Brother Lin Chao was very low-key, and her father did not want to expose Brother Lin Chao.
But after this meeting, she dared to be certain that Lin Chao definitely had a great deal to do with her father becoming the Speaker of Li Zhu Country.
After all, ever since her father became Speaker, the attitudes of the acquaintances and even roommates she met had undergone tremendous changes.
Although some hid it well, one could still clearly sense the difference.
Li Xiangqin left, and Linda remained in the room: "Mr. Lin Chao, although Mr. Li Guoliang has become Speaker with the support of our several major forces, domestically... the voices of opposition are very loud."
A look of hesitation appeared on Linda's face.
Indeed, Li Guoliang was a Daxia person and still held Daxia citizenship; having him suddenly become the Speaker of Li Zhu Country, the voices of opposition within Li Zhu Country could be imagined.
"The military is in your hands, what are you afraid of?" Lin Chao's gaze was calm.
No matter which world it is, whoever holds power holds the right to speak.
"However..." Linda's gaze was still somewhat hesitant, "We have suppressed quite a few people, but more people have formed the Revival Society, wanting to overthrow us."
"Li Zhu Country is, after all, a powerful nation in the world today; can it not even deal with a Revival Society?" Lin Chao smiled lightly.
Indeed, without the existence of the Supernatural, the more advanced the technology, the stronger the ruling power of the upper echelons.
"This Revival Society... is suspected to be related to the Supernatural." A look of wariness appeared on Linda's face.
As she spoke, she took a notebook out of her bag.
The notebook was opened, and quite a bit of information appeared on it; Linda showed the information to Lin Chao.
Lin Chao took the information and began to read it seriously.
"Moore Family? Ji'an Family?"
In this information, the backbone of the Revival Society was these two families.
The Moore Family and the Ji'an Family were families in the Xi Fang Shi Jie that had been passed down for thousands of years.
These two families could be considered well-deserved hidden families.
Their current power certainly could not compare to the several major forces that now controlled Li Zhu Country.
Otherwise, it would be these two families controlling Li Zhu Country.
However, these two families were very mysterious, with many members and deep roots.
Moreover, these two families had been glorious in their ancestry.
For example, the Moore Family, at the time of its greatest power 1,300 years ago, secretly controlled two kingdoms.
The Caribbean Pirates, who roamed the three seas, were also secretly controlled by the Moore Family.
Rumor had it that this family possessed Supernatural abilities and controlled the storms on the ocean.
However, the glory of this family only lasted for a hundred years before it declined.
The Ji'an Family was very similar to the Moore Family, but its history was longer, dating back two thousand years.
This family also had information regarding the Supernatural.
Rumor had it that their ancestors mastered misfortune.
Anyone who was their enemy would suffer misfortune.
"Interesting." Lin Chao looked at these words, a hint of curiosity appearing in his eyes.
"Families like the Moore Family and the Ji'an Family are numerous in our Xi Fang Shi Jie.
But in the East... they are very rare." Linda said while observing Lin Chao's expression.
"According to records, the ancestors of these families all had one Transcendental.
Based on this Transcendental, the family continuously grew stronger.
But... they also declined rapidly; however, quite a few have continued to the present.
The Moore Family and the Ji'an Family are the outstanding ones among them."
"Continue." Lin Chao listened quietly.
"Actually, according to some records and rumors.
In fact, similar Transcendental individuals have also appeared in the East.
However, these Transcendental individuals never stirred up any great waves; at most, they became folk anecdotes, with their influence limited to a single city or county.
In the West, it is completely different."
Linda looked at Lin Chao, her gaze complex.
In fact, her original position was to investigate hidden families of the past like the Moore Family and the Ji'an Family.
She did not believe in the records of family legends.
After all, everyone likes to add a bit of status to their ancestors.
For example, the family Linda belongs to rose to prominence one hundred years ago.
In fact, her ancestor was just an Ordinary cobbler, but in her family's genealogy, it is recorded that her family actually possesses the bloodline of the Legendary figure, the Beheader Solon.
Linda knows that these are all fabrications.
Therefore, regarding the rumors that the ancestors of the Moore Family, the Ji'an Family, and many other families were Transcendental, Linda felt they were all fake.
This matter continued until Lin Chao came to Li Zhu Country and Li Zhu Country changed its master, only then did it end.
"So, if the records of these families are true.
Their... ancestors, are they actually Outsiders?" Lin Chao's gaze was calm.
Of course, there is also this possibility.
This world, even with Lin Chao's current strength, cannot be exited.
However, people often come over.
For example, the traces left behind by the Dao Ancestor.
For example, those few Outsiders who broke in a while ago.
Therefore, it is perfectly normal for Outsiders to come to this world and stir up trouble.
"Collect more information, then give it to me." Lin Chao became interested.
This world seems to be leaking; people often enter.
Lin Chao thought about seeing if he could find a way out.
"As you command." Linda spoke, but thinking of something, Linda continued: "This Moore Family, if there is really someone behind them..."
There was worry in her eyes.
As a modern person, she was always wary and in awe of the Supernatural.
"God Position." Lin Chao spoke softly.
Just then, in the hotel, a youth dressed in black appeared abruptly.
The youth had delicate features, yet he exuded a cold, biting sensation.
He saw Lin Chao, and there was a look of awe in his eyes: "Master."
The one who came was none other than Heize's God Position Spear, God Position.
Lin Chao helped him take human form and bestowed upon him powerful combat strength.
Seeing this youth who appeared abruptly, Linda had a look of shock in her eyes.
A Transcendental!
This black-clothed youth must be a Transcendental.
"You follow Linda and go to the West to do some things for me." Lin Chao instructed.
"As you command, Master." God Position stood to the side, his figure tall and straight, not like a person of this world.
"Thank you, sir!" Linda felt grateful in her heart.
With a Transcendental by her side, and one who was a subordinate of that mysterious and terrifying Master Lin Chao, Linda felt much more confident.
With such a powerful person helping, if she were still afraid of dealing with suspected Transcendental individuals, it would be a bit unreasonable.
"Collect some information, then send it to me." Lin Chao said softly, and he picked up the tea on the table and began to drink.
Linda immediately stood up, bowed, and took her leave.
As for God Position, he followed by Linda's side.
"Senior, how should I address you?" After leaving the door, Linda looked at God Position, with awe in her eyes.
"Just like the Master, you may address me as God Position." The God Position Spear spoke, his voice carrying a chill.
Linda felt her body shiver; she was somewhat fearful, but more so excited.
She also imagined many things in her heart.
Perhaps this Lin Chao is an Immortal Cultivator from the East, the uncrowned king of the Eastern world.
Therefore, even if those Transcendental individuals appear in the East, they cannot truly stir up trouble, at most appearing in some ghost stories and legends.
Unlike the West, where those Transcendental individuals can even secretly control the world.
Just as Linda was guessing wildly, a cold voice came.
"Hmph, ignorant, speaking ill of the Master behind his back.
If it weren't for the Master's order not to kill without cause, these people would have already died under my Spear!" The black-clothed youth spoke, his eyes filled with killing intent.
Linda was slightly stunned, then hurriedly asked: "Which people?"
This was her opportunity, an opportunity to please Lin Chao.
"This... this... this..." The black-clothed youth waved his hand, and images appeared in the Void; in the images, some people were communicating.
Seeing this scene, Linda sighed slightly in wonder.
Is this what a Transcendental is?
Mortals, in front of a Transcendental, truly have no privacy to speak of.
"Rest assured, these people will receive the punishment they deserve!" Linda's gaze was cold.
She had already decided to first drive this group of people out.
As for a greater reckoning, that would continue later.
Of course, considering the relationship they might have with Mr. Lin Chao.
She naturally would not be too heavy-handed.
"Hmph." God Position let out a cold snort, a hint of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.
He naturally did not bring these things up at random.
Fortunately, Linda was not too stupid and could understand his meaning.
The next day, the gathering began.
What others did not expect was that Lin Youjin, who was doing the best among these people, was driven away, as was the little chubby boy who came with Lin.
This caused a stir at the time.
At the time, Lin Youjin was naturally unconvinced and even argued his case.
However, a woman from Li Zhu Country came out, her face tear-stained, saying she had been blocked and harassed by Lin Cai and the little chubby boy, and only then did the matter end.
Harassing a foreign "friend," and one who represented the power of Speaker Li Guoliang, naturally no one dared to stand on Lin Youjin's side.
Furthermore, the fact that Lin Youjin was driven out would let his business partners know, and they would cut off their cooperative relationships with him.
This world is just this realistic.
The banquet began.
A total of several hundred people gathered in the hall, eating luxurious things.
However, these people were all very shy, and the scene of eating a whole pig in one bite as performed in *Hello Mr. Billionaire* did not appear.
Everyone ate very cautiously and very calmly.
Apart from seeing the world and receiving some small gifts, there were no other changes.
"Sigh, those who commit many injustices are doomed to self-destruction. Lin Youjin doesn't keep his son Lin Cai in check, letting him wreak havoc on women everywhere; this time he even harassed a high-ranking official from Li Zhu Country and got himself driven out.
Sigh, it's still Xiao Chao who is good—he studies well, has excellent character, and will have a bright future."
Beside Lin, the elder who had come with him said with a smile.
Beside him, Lin Chao smiled and did not reply.
However, hearing others praise his son, Lin was naturally happy inside.
"Dad, do you want to start a company?" Lin Chao suddenly asked from the side.
Lin was slightly stunned: "Start a company? I don't know anything, and I don't have money."
Lin Chao's father was only in his forties and did not yet have the leisurely mindset of a fishing enthusiast.
He had lived an Ordinary life, returning to simplicity for the sake of his family.
In fact, deep down, he might not be without some dreams.
Or rather, he wanted to "achieve great things."
"I am quite close with Li Xiangqin and have been in contact with her.
Yesterday, she even came to find me, having some ideas about starting a company.
However, she is after all the daughter of the Speaker of Li Zhu Country, and doing these things is a bit like neglecting her proper duties.
She wants to invest in some people to do some business and asked me to recommend some.
I recommended... Dad." Lin Chao's gaze was calm.
He had given his father a drop of his blood, improving his father's body.
He had also sent a lot of money home.
The living conditions at home were much better.
"Xiao Chao, you and Miss Li Xiangqin have a very good relationship?" The elder who had spoken earlier showed a look of surprise.
"Quite close."
"Oh my, your family... has struck it rich." The expression of that elder changed visibly to the naked eye.
Only Lin was somewhat at a loss.
Lin Chao was very calm.
With money and a background, if one starts a business, why fear failure?
Find something for Mom and Dad to do as well.
This way, they would also have a greater sense of accomplishment.
Once they earned their own money, they wouldn't always be so frugal.
The world was pitch black.
In a cave, terrifying roars could be heard from time to time.
A bug with a peculiar appearance appeared in front of the cave.
"Old Ancestor, the seed planted in the Yuanqiu Tribe has obtained an important piece of news.
The Yuanqiu Tribe... seems to have discovered news of the No-Distance Land!
They are preparing to enter the No-Distance Land!"
The cave was pitch black, and various sounds came from within.
After a long while, a voice came: "No-Distance Land?"
The voice was calm, without any joy.
"It is rumored that the first-generation ancestor of the Yuanqiu Tribe entered the No-Distance Land?"
It is rumored that the ancestor of the Yuanqiu Tribe, in order to break through bloodline limitations and step into a higher realm, entered the No-Distance Land, wanting to find the source of their bloodline.
Unfortunately, after going to the No-Distance Land, all traces of him were lost.
The Yuanqiu Tribe also declined from that point on.
Their clan also took this opportunity to divide up the territory of the Yuanqiu Tribe.
Yet, as the long years passed, their clan has now also fallen into decline.
The No-Distance Land is very mysterious and also very dangerous.
The No-Distance Land is one of the most mysterious places in all the realms.
It is rumored that there are many treasures and supreme opportunities within it.
Many powerhouses are investigating clues about the No-Distance Land.
Many people want to head to the No-Distance Land, and news about the No-Distance Land often circulates.
However, most of it is fake.
Therefore, he did not pay much attention to this news.
"Let Kaluo go; take the Ancient Array and head to the current territory of the Yuanqiu Tribe." The voice was vast, then returned to silence.
"As you command!"
