Chapter 20: It's Your Grandpa Me!

Lin Feng stood up and walked out of the mine cave.

"Huh? Where's everyone? How come no one's here?"

Lin Feng looked around. Apart from a few miners, not a single one of the core clan members who had come with him was anywhere to be seen.

Just then, the sound of shouting and killing came from not far away.

Lin Feng's face darkened, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

Right at that moment, the system's prompt sounded.

【Ding! Detected that the Zhou Family of Liuhuo City has invaded the Spirit Mine. Elder Lin Hai is leading the clan members in a desperate resistance; casualties have already appeared. Host, please rush to reinforce!】

"Zhou Family? Zhou Dingtian! Bastard!"

Lin Feng was furious. He had just upgraded the small Spirit Mine into a Medium Spirit Mine, and immediately someone came to rob it — and even killed his clan members.

If this can be tolerated, what cannot?

The Zhou Family has already chosen the path to death!

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

The sound of tearing air rang out. Lin Feng's speed was terrifying — in the blink of an eye, he vanished from where he stood.

His whole body was like an arrow leaving the bowstring, rushing at top speed toward the direction where Lin Hai was.

At this moment, the Lin Family members were surrounded on all sides.

The Zhou Family dominated Liuhuo City, controlling the resources of an entire city. The clan members they trained were extremely fierce. It was said that even Qingyun Sect would proactively go to the Zhou Family to recruit Tudi.

From this, one could see how domineering the Zhou Family was.

Although the Lin Family had undergone a transformation now, it had only been such a short time — naturally they could not stand against the Zhou Family as equals.

But the Lin Family people were full of fighting spirit, and had actually managed to hold back the Zhou Family's advance, not letting them get anywhere near the Spirit Mine.

"Lin Hai, you old dog — you really won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"

Zhou Dingtian said furiously. Lin Hai, relying on the Blood Tyrant Blade, had actually managed to withstand his attacks several times head-on.

"Hmph! Don't even think about breaking into the Spirit Mine!"

"Even if my Lin Family has to fight to the last man, we will never let you succeed!"

At this moment, Lin Hai's qi and blood were churning within his body.

He was old after all, and on top of that his Cultivation was being suppressed by Zhou Dingtian. Even with the Blood Tyrant Blade, resisting was extremely difficult.

If the fight continued, he would soon be completely spent.

The Lin Family people around them were also gasping for breath, and on the ground lay two corpses.

"Stubborn fool!"

Zhou Dingtian snorted coldly, and immediately raised the Haojin Purple Hammer. He would strike a fatal blow and kill Lin Hai directly.

Once Lin Hai died, the remaining Lin Family people would not resist either.

"Golden Light Chaotic Hammer Art!"

With Zhou Dingtian's explosive roar, the Haojin Purple Hammer was swung by him into a raging gale.

Every single hammer strike made one's heart tremble with fear.

Lin Hai knew perfectly well — he could not dodge it.

"Clan Leader, this old man is ashamed — I failed to protect the Spirit Mine we only just obtained with such difficulty!"

Lin Hai gave a bitter smile. He had not even sent anyone to summon Lin Feng.

After all, Lin Feng was cultivating inside the mine cave — that was the top priority.

If Lin Feng's cultivation were disturbed, breaking his epiphany would be a minor matter; what was truly feared was causing Lin Feng to fall into qi deviation.

Unfortunately, without Lin Feng coming out, they simply could not deal with the Zhou Family.

"Die!"

Zhou Dingtian said coldly, and a hammer came crashing straight down toward Lin Hai's head.

"How dare you!"

A voice swept in, and then Spirit Qi surged like a dragon.

In the blink of an eye, that vast, mighty force slammed entirely into Zhou Dingtian's chest.

This force sent Zhou Dingtian flying. The Haojin Purple Hammer in his hand even dropped to the ground, producing a deafening crash.

"Clan Leader?!"

The Lin Family people were overjoyed.

Lin Feng had come!

Their savior had come!

"Elder, that's not good enough! I gave you the Blood Tyrant Blade, and yet you can't use it — what a disgrace!"

Although Lin Hai's words were harsh, his tone held no blame.

He stepped forward to help Lin Hai up, considerately brushing the dust off him.

This scene brought tears to the eyes of the Lin Family people.

Lin Hai's old face flushed with shame, and he said, unable to face anyone: "Clan Leader, I am too weak. I'm afraid I… am no longer fit to hold the position of Elder."

Hearing these words, Lin Feng repeatedly waved his hands and shook his head.

"What nonsense are you spouting? If you don't serve as Elder, am I supposed to?"

"In my heart, you are the Elder — no one can replace you. If your strength is lacking, then cultivate harder. I'm here, aren't I? I'll give you a suitable cultivation technique later."

Lin Feng said with a smile. He did not blame Lin Hai for being weak.

Before him, those words "weak strength" did not exist.

As long as one can add points, even a pig can take off.

At this moment, the Zhou Family members helped Zhou Dingtian up. Blood still hung at the corner of his mouth, and he had been beaten into a thoroughly sorry state just now.

He looked toward Lin Feng, his eyes narrowing slightly, a flash of contempt passing through them.

"You're Lin Feng?"

"It's your grandpa here!"

Lin Feng turned to look. He had only used thirty percent of his strength just now, which was why he failed to kill Zhou Dingtian on the spot.

The Zhou Family members, hearing this, were instantly enraged and humiliated.

In front of their Clan Leader, Lin Feng still dared to be so insolent?

"You're asking for death!"

Zhou Dingtian grew even angrier. He had been caught completely off guard just now, which was why he was struck by the sneak attack.

If they had fought face-to-face, Lin Feng could never have succeeded.

Zhou Dingtian knew the situation of the Four Great Families of Ziyun City very well.

Therefore, he knew Lin Feng only had the strength of Wu Dan Ninth Layer.

His Zhou Family could wipe out the Lin Family without the slightest effort.

"I don't know if I'm asking for death, but you lot—you're all dying today."

Lin Feng's face was utterly calm as he looked at the two corpses on the ground.

They were members of the Lin Family!

"Clan Leader, Lin Yang, Lin Hu, they…"

Several Lin Family members stepped forward, their eyes full of grief.

Lin Hai was especially full of self-reproach.

If only he had been a little stronger, perhaps such a thing would never have happened.

"Clan Leader, please, you must avenge Lin Yang and Lin Hu!"

The Lin Family members began to cry out one after another, their gazes toward the Zhou Family people filled with hatred.

"Pfft—"

The Zhou Family members, seeing this, could no longer hold back their laughter, as if they had heard the funniest joke in the world.

Even Zhou Dingtian bared his teeth in a mocking grin.

"Avenge? On the strength of you lot?"

"Today, every single member of your Lin Family must die!"

"Not only that—this Clan Leader will march into Ziyun City and slaughter your entire Lin Family to the last."

Zhou Dingtian's face twisted into a savage snarl.

A mere Lin Family daring to challenge him—truly overestimating themselves.

"I had thought that if you handed over the Spirit Mine, I'd leave you a path to live. Now that you've chosen death yourselves, wash your necks clean and get ready to depart!"

Zhou Dingtian's mouth showed no mercy. He was seen striding toward Lin Feng step by step.

A single Medium Spirit Mine was enough to drive any faction mad.

"I'll kill you, the Clan Leader, first, then chop off the heads of every member of your Lin Family!"

At this moment, Lin Feng moved.

He took a single step forward, and the full might of his Wudao Realm Fourth Layer cultivation burst forth completely.

He alone made every member of the Zhou Family tremble all over, casting fearful gazes his way.

"Wu… Wudao Realm!"

"Cl-Clan Leader, his Cultivation is at the Wudao Realm!"

"Impossible! How could a powerhouse like this appear in the Lin Family?!"

The Zhou Family members trembled uncontrollably, unable to believe their own eyes. Zhou Dingtian, even more so, was drenched in cold sweat.

The instant he felt Lin Feng's pressure, Zhou Dingtian had already lost his nerve.

"You're not wrong—first I'll chop off the dog-head of you, the Zhou Family's Clan Leader, then wipe out your Zhou Family. That's exactly how it'll be done!"
