94: Chapter 94 The Idea of ​​Joining the Army, Fighting Back to Jinan

“That’s incredible. I know you must have a huge secret, and it’s safer for you to stay at the academy. If you stay, I can protect you. But if you leave, I worry that with your talent, the Reincarnation Cult will find you very soon,” Mu Qianqian’s eyes were filled with worry.

“I’m a grown man, how can I let you protect me? How will I ever grow? Don't worry, it won't be that easy for them to deal with me. Who doesn’t have a few trump cards? When my strength increases, it will be my turn to protect you!”

Lin Yuan’s expression was resolute, radiating confidence. Mu Qianqian gazed at him, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her heart warmed.

“Then have you decided where you want to go?”

“I’ve actually long thought about joining the military. Only by facing fierce beasts head-on can I stimulate my greatest potential,” Lin Yuan stated firmly.

Possessing a cheat system and the Spirit Devouring skill, there was no place more suitable for him than the military.

Lin Yuan was confident that as long as there were enough fierce beasts for him to kill, he could quickly grow into a powerhouse who could look down upon Blue Star.

From what Chu Yunfeng and Mu Qianqian had spoken of the starry sky, he increasingly yearned for a stage where he could compete with the prodigies of the Myriad Domains.

Although saying this now seemed too distant and impractical, one must have ideals; having a goal provides motivation.

“Okay, since you already have a plan, I support you. But not right now. I recruited you into Qing University and even gave you god-level fierce beast essence blood. You should repay me somehow,” Mu Qianqian curved her lips slightly.

“Of course. Tell me what you need me to do to repay you, I have no objections,” Lin Yuan readily agreed.

“It’s simple. After the official start of school in a few days, there will be a New Student Competition. The internal competition among Qing University students is one thing, but there is also the Sacred Academy Exchange Match. In the exchange match, the strongest New Students from the Four Great Sacred Academies will compete against each other.

The results of this Sacred Academy Exchange Match will determine the rankings and the distribution of educational resources for the Four Great Sacred Academies. Moda University has an S-class New Student this year, so I need you to help me win first place in this New Student Exchange Match.”

“No problem. Isn't it just first place? Easy to say,”

Lin Yuan agreed immediately. With his current strength, claiming to be the Qingda University's Strongest Student was not an exaggeration. A New Student Exchange Match would be a piece of cake.

“Also, you can graduate early if you want, but you must complete the required academic credits. That’s the rule, and I can’t pull strings for you. You can accept missions issued by the academy to earn credits. Once you have enough credits, you can immediately apply for graduation, and then you can report directly to the military,” Mu Qianqian added.

“Alright, I will complete all the required academic credits,” Lin Yuan nodded.

Just as the two were talking, Lin Yuan’s phone suddenly rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, it was the elder friend from Spring City, the Alliance Master of the Martial Arts Alliance, Qi Tianheng.

“Old Brother Qi, how have you been lately? Why are you thinking of calling me?” Lin Yuan answered the phone with a smile.

This Old Brother Qi and that City Lord Old Brother Zhao had helped him a lot when he was just starting his path as a martial artist, so he was very grateful to these two.

“Lin Yuan, I have some bad news. Don't panic after hearing it. During the routine inspection by the patrolling martial artists at Dragon Pool Garden today, your parents and younger sister were found missing from your home.

After investigating the scene, it seems they were forcibly taken away. Being able to take your family away under the noses of the Martial Alliance patrolling martial artists means the opposing party’s strength is likely not low,” Qi Tianheng said in a deep voice.

“What?! My family was taken? Who is it? Anyone who dares to harm my family, I will make them wish they were dead!!!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan’s eyes instantly turned blood-red. He smashed the wardrobe beside the bed with one punch, startling Mu Qianqian. Judging by Lin Yuan’s words, his family must have run into trouble for the usually composed him to suddenly erupt in anger.

“Lin Yuan, don't panic yet. The personnel from the Martial Alliance and the City Lord’s Mansion have already been dispatched to search for any trace of them. Think carefully about who might have done this. Do you have any enemies?” Qi Tianheng asked.

“Enemies? ---”

Lin Yuan forcibly calmed himself down and began to ponder who it could be.

Could it be Chen Haobei? Impossible. With Chen Haobei's strength, if he wanted to deal with me, he wouldn't use such a low-level trick; he would attack directly. Moreover, Chen Guang hasn't sent any news either.

The enemy family in Spring City, the Liu Family, has already been annihilated, so it couldn't be revenge from them.

Just as Lin Yuan was thinking carefully, he suddenly remembered a person—or rather, a cripple---

Before the Martial Arts Examination, when his sister Lin Anran was being driven out at the hospital, Lin Yuan had offended a young master named Yang Wei.

At that time, Lin Yuan’s strength was low. When Qi Tianheng asked him how to deal with Yang Wei, he did not choose to take the other person's life.

Firstly, he feared retaliation against his family, and secondly, because he had only just gotten to know Qi Tianheng, Qi Tianheng did not directly kill Yang Wei but asked for his opinion, likely due to the other party's status making it difficult to kill him outright.

So, Lin Yuan chose to spare him back then, and in the end, Qi Tianheng crippled both of Yang Wei’s legs, and the matter was considered settled. Lin Yuan hadn't taken Yang Wei seriously.

Now, recalling the hateful look Yang Wei gave him at the end, Lin Yuan wished he could slap himself twice. It was because he had been too considerate back then that he let the person go.

His mercy towards an enemy was cruelty to himself. From now on, any enemy, he would not let a single one go!

“Old Brother Qi, I remember someone. Do you still remember that Yang Wei from the First Hospital back then? You crippled both his legs, and later his father, Yang Yantao, was killed by me,” Lin Yuan said solemnly.

“Yang Wei? You mean--- it might be him who hired someone to do this?” Qi Tianheng asked.

“I can’t think of anyone else who would cause trouble for my family. Old Brother Qi, investigate him first. I’m heading back to Spring City immediately. No matter who it is, I will kill them with my own hands!”

“Sigh--- I should have just killed him back then,” Qi Tianheng said with regret.

“It’s not your fault; it’s mine for being too hesitant back then. Old Brother Qi, I’m counting on you. I’m leaving for Spring City now.”

After hanging up the call, Lin Yuan grabbed a coat and told Mu Qianqian, “Dean Mu, my family has been taken. I must return to Spring City immediately.”

“Don’t rush. I’ll go with you to prevent the other party from having a powerhouse. I won’t interfere with anything else; just focus on fighting,”

Mu Qianqian said anxiously. When Lin Yuan’s family was captured, she felt a sense of tension as if her own family were in danger.

“Good! Let’s go!” Lin Yuan grabbed Mu Qianqian’s wrist and ran out.

“Lin Yuan, I’ll take you to Dean Yuan to have him activate the spatial teleportation to send us to Spring City.”

After leaving the room, Mu Qianqian wrapped her arm around Lin Yuan’s waist, and the two soared into the air, heading towards the teaching building.

Soon, the two found Dean Yuan. Dean Yuan didn't say a word and immediately activated the portal.

The two stepped through hand-in-hand and reappeared within the vicinity of Spring City.

“Yang Wei! Whether you did this or not, I will make you die this time! ---” Lin Yuan roared inwardly, his eyes gloomy.
