Chapter 193: Slaying a Nirvana Realm expert is like slaughtering a dog!
Since the situation wasn't fully clear, Lin Feng wouldn't just kill Lin Luojiang offhand.
This old fellow knew quite a bit about the inner workings of the Lin Clan, so he was perfect for getting some answers.
Moreover, Lin Feng would inevitably clash with the Crown Prince of the Daqian Dynasty in the future, so he could use the Lin Clan to learn a bit about the Crown Prince now.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng grabbed Lin Luojiang and fed him a Fuchun Pill directly.
Before long, Lin Luojiang actually began to recover.
However, his entire cultivation base had been completely devoured.
"Why did you save me?!"
Lin Luojiang's eyes were filled with disgust; he had never imagined he would be defeated by Lin Feng.
Now that the defeat was certain, he had no face left to return to the Lin Clan.
"You want to die without explaining things clearly? There's no such cheap deal," Lin Feng sneered.
The Lin Clan and the Lin Family were closely related, but it was as if they had been slashed by a blade a hundred years ago, severing their memories and losing their heritage, with only a genealogy book left to maintain the connection.
But after a hundred years, the Ziyun City Lin Family didn't even know their own relationship with the Lin Clan.
If there were no connection, so be it; Lin Feng wouldn't think twice about it.
But since there was a connection, if he could pull the Lin Clan into the System's coordination,
Lin Feng's cultivation would soar once again.
"Hmph! You think you're worthy of knowing what happened back then? Keep dreaming!"
Lin Luojiang let out a cold snort; having lost his cultivation, he was determined not to say another word.
Seeing this, Lin Feng took a deep breath.
If he couldn't get the answers from Lin Luojiang, he would just have to make a trip to the Lin Clan himself.
"It doesn't matter if you don't talk; do you really think I can be threatened by you?"
Lin Feng smiled coldly, his five fingers spreading open.
The System's prompt did not sound.
This meant the Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Body had not been born in the Lin Family.
Only by killing Lin Luojiang could the Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Body appear.
A wave of suction suddenly emerged, pressing directly onto Lin Luojiang's head.
"You... you're actually doing it?!"
Lin Luojiang was shocked; he had thought Lin Feng was the type to eat hard but not soft, and that if he acted tough and kept the secret of a hundred years ago locked tight, Lin Feng would surely be afraid to act.
He never expected Lin Feng to be so ruthless!
"Don't you want to know the secret from a hundred years ago?"
Lin Luojiang had thought that at worst, he would be dragged back to the Lin Family by Lin Feng; as long as he didn't return to the Lin Clan to lose face, he didn't really want to die.
But at this moment, Lin Feng was showing no mercy.
He killed when he said he would.
"You wasted one of my Fuchun Pills, and you still want to live?"
"It's too late for you to say anything now; this Clan Leader is not interested in your affairs!"
Lin Feng sneered. For someone who didn't know how to appreciate kindness and dared to try to threaten the Lin Family with secrets from a hundred years ago—unfortunately for him, Lin Feng never accepted threats!
The devouring power surged wildly.
In just a moment, the cultivation-less Lin Luojiang was completely devoured.
Inside the Haoran Sect, the disciples and elders who had already fled all looked back.
People from various factions also cast their gazes over.
"Just like that... he killed him?"
"That was an elder of the Lin Clan, a powerhouse of the Nirvana Realm!"
"Lin Feng slaying a Nirvana Realm expert is like slaughtering a dog!"
Those who saw this scene had weak knees, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
Throughout history, there have been countless Heaven's Prides.
These Heaven's Prides always had astonishing performances and often fought above their rank, but never had anyone been like Lin Feng, slaying a Nirvana Realm expert while in the Dao Combination Realm!
If this news spread, the entire Daqian Dynasty would surely be shocked.
"As expected of the Clan Leader!"
Lin Xuan watched from the side; the medicinal effect in her body had actually been partially drawn away by the devouring power just now, and she felt much more comfortable now, no longer feeling unwell.
【Ding! Congratulations to the Host for devouring the Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Body. Clan member Lin Kaitian has obtained the Heavenly Enlightenment Sacred Body.】
【Ding! Obtained random rewards: 200 Five-Star Void Spirit Pills, Six-Star Spirit Treasure: Enlightenment God Tower, Six-Star Art: Heavenly Dao Boundless Art, Family Fortune Value +8000.】
【Ding! Slaying Lin Luojiang, obtained Family Fortune Value +!】
The System's voice rang out, and the corner of Lin Feng's mouth curled up.
The harvest this time was quite substantial.
But it was a pity that he couldn't get any useful information out of Lin Luojiang.
There were some vague memories in his brain, but they weren't complete; they were fragmented and intermittent.
However, as Lin Feng devoured Lin Luojiang, a large segment of memory seemed to surge into his mind.
These memories filled in the fragments in his mind and linked them together.
"This..." Lin Feng was stunned, his expression changing constantly.
Back when he devoured Lin Dingtian on Dragon Island, he had actually already obtained some of his memories, and when he devoured Lin Xuebao, his memories also contained some things about the Lin Clan.
And now, by devouring Lin Luojiang, these memories were completely filled in.
A hundred years ago, the Lin Clan was at its peak, the head of the Eight Great Families of the Capital.
But because of one incident, the Lin Clan began to decline.
That incident was that the Imperial Family of the Daqian Dynasty had opened up a mysterious space back then and found endless resources within it.
It was just that it was filled with crises, and the Imperial Family couldn't swallow such vast resources alone, so they took the initiative to invite the Eight Great Families to explore its mysteries together.
The Lin Clan stood out among them and built a city in that mysterious space, named Tianyuan Cloud City.
This move made others envious, and even the Imperial Family was extremely jealous of it.
In that mysterious space, the Lin Clan's prominence faintly overshadowed the Imperial Family, and later, a place of extreme evil appeared in that space; no one who went to explore it ever returned alive.
This place was named the Blood Demon Palace.
The Imperial Family invited the Eight Great Families to explore the Blood Demon Palace together, and they found Blood Demon Stones inside, with the Lin Clan taking the lead, guiding the other eight forces deep into the dangerous, evil territory.
But it was precisely because of this that everyone who entered the Blood Demon Palace that time died, except for the people of the Lin Clan.
The Lin Clan was already standing out from the crowd, and with this incident happening, it drew the resentment of the Imperial Family and the other seven families. The Lin Clan's Clan Leader at the time couldn't explain the matter clearly and had no power to defend himself, so naturally, they were attacked by all sides.
Thus, the Lin Clan underwent a bloodbath.
This matter ended with the suicide of the then-Lin Clan Leader, Lin Wentian.
But the Lin Clan also lost Tianyuan Cloud City from then on.
Even so, a drastic change occurred within the Lin Clan, and the direct lineage members were driven away and scattered everywhere.
And this branch of the Ziyun City Lin Family was the direct lineage of the Lin Clan.
But the direct lineage of the Lin Clan had always possessed the power of heritage; once awakened, they would surely rise.
Therefore, the current Lin Dingtian, Lin Luojiang, and others had always been trying to extinguish this power of heritage.
Lin Feng's branch was viewed as sinners.
As these memories flooded into Lin Feng's mind, he couldn't help but stand there in a daze.
At this very moment, he understood all the grievances and grudges between the Lin Family and the Lin Clan.
The turmoil of a hundred years ago caused the prosperous Lin Clan to collapse.
The people of the Lin Clan who remained now were nothing but a bunch of spineless fence-sitters who could only target the direct lineage to survive.
Having sorted this out, Lin Feng's pupils constricted.
A sky-high killing intent surged out, and popping sounds even came from his body.
No one knew what had happened to Lin Feng; Lin Luojiang had already been killed, and the Haoran Sect Master was lying dead on the spot—was he going to kill again? ===== CHAPTER 194 =====
