Mysterious map, confident Liu Yanran!

At noon, the sun was bright.

Lin Family, Courtyard.

Lin Dong sat on a stool in his room, studying the unknown bone he had obtained from the Bai family's Sixth Elder.

He had studied it all night yesterday.

No matter how he looked at it, he didn't find anything unusual.

However, this bone could withstand his grip of over six million catties, which was enough to show its extraordinary nature.

"It's actually a map!"

Just now, Lin Dong had a sudden idea and scanned it with his World-Destroying Double Pupils.

The Double Pupils were said to be able to see through all illusions and supreme Restrictions; all things in heaven and earth had nowhere to hide before them.

The World-Destroying Double Pupils displayed mysterious divine runes, and sure enough, Lin Dong saw an unusual side of this bone.

Mysterious patterns flowed on it, and it was actually a map.

Lin Dong was delighted: "Could it be some treasure map, or some Secret Realm opportunity?"

On the Kyushu Continent, there were not a few supreme powerhouses who, before their deaths, could not find a Legacy successor, so they liked to hide their Legacy in some Secret Realms and let tokens or maps circulate in the world.

They hoped that a fated person would open the Secret Realm and inherit their mantle.

If he didn't have the Double Pupils, with his Tiangang Realm strength, he wouldn't be able to see through it at all, which suggested that the person who left the map must be some peerless master!

This item was fated with him.

The Bai family's Sixth Elder probably studied it his whole life, and even died without discovering the map, only knowing that the bone was somewhat mysterious.

Instead, it benefited Lin Dong.

Lin Dong also discovered that the point marked on the map seemed to be a few hundred kilometers outside the academy; he could go and check it out when he had time, perhaps there would really be some unexpected gains!

"Young Master!"

"Are you awake?"

"Someone from the Liu family is here, wanting to visit you!"

Just then, the butler's knocking sound came from outside the door, as if there was something urgent.

Lin Dong put the bone back into his storage ring, stretched, and went to open the door, "The Liu family is here to visit? Just visit, can't you, Butler, handle it yourself?"

Lin Dong had long expected the forces of Yunlan City to come to his door.

With his current strength, many people would definitely come to curry favor, but he didn't want to bother with these social matters.

"The Liu family patriarch and the Liu family Young Miss have brought generous gifts, looking very sincere."

"The Liu family patriarch specifically asked to see you; considering the past relationship between the Liu family and my Lin family, I, an old man, couldn't refuse him in front of so many people, so I came to inform you..."

"Do you want to meet them?"

The Liu family father and daughter waited from morning until noon; most people had left, and only when the butler had free time did he go to the backyard to tell Lin Dong what had happened in the morning.

"Liu Yanran?"

Lin Dong asked as he walked, "What trick does she want to play?"

The butler said, "Looking at her, she seems to have some regrets. Your old servant speculates that she came to salvage her engagement with Young Master and ease the relationship between the two families."

"Regret?"

Lin Dong sneered, "Anyone might regret, but I don't think Liu Yanran will; they should have other motives."

He grew up with Liu Yanran and understood her personality too well.

She was competitive, always wanting the best of everything; for men, she wanted Bai Han, the most talented in the academy...

She wouldn't look down on a good-for-nothing like him and wanted to break off the engagement.

Therefore, he didn't quite believe that the arrogant woman Liu Yanran would regret it.

As for salvaging the engagement?

Impossible!

From the moment Lin Dong broke off the engagement with Liu Yanran, it meant that the relationship between them was cut clean, with no further ties!

"Is lunch ready?"

"I'm hungry, let's eat first!"

Lin Dong changed the subject; nothing was more important than eating.

Eat?

The butler was dumbfounded: "Young Master, aren't you going to see the Liu family patriarch and Young Miss Liu?"

Lin Dong said, "Did I say I would see them?"

Arriving at the dining area, Lin Dong leisurely ate. The meat of the demon king, for him, no longer had such a great effect.

However, it could still increase some Cultivation and condense into individual giant elephant particles.

After one night of automatic Cultivation, plus the demon king meat he ate, he gained over two hundred more giant elephant particles. Lin Dong now had at least eight million catties of strength.

Lin Dong suddenly said, "Tell them that this young master is in seclusion. Please invite them to the side hall to sit and let them wait until evening."

Liu Yanran, he would absolutely not see her.

But the Liu family patriarch was his father's brother since childhood, so he was his Uncle Liu.

It was the relationship between Lin Father and Liu Father that set up the childhood engagement between Lin Dong and Liu Yanran, which led to the engagement being broken off a few days ago.

But Liu Yanran breaking off the engagement was Liu Yanran's business.

Uncle Liu, Lin Dong still needed to meet him.

However, later.

If, a few days ago, when the Lin family was besieged by the Bai family, the Liu family, out of consideration for the relationship between the two families, had not stood by.

Lin Dong might have, for that reason, immediately gone to meet the Liu family patriarch.

But the Liu family did not make a move. If Lin Dong hadn't returned, the Lin family would have been in grave danger, so he didn't need to be overly friendly to the Liu family.

The Liu family was not worthy.

At this moment, he had enough strength and did not need to care about the Face of any force in Yunlan City.

How much was the Liu family patriarch's Face worth!

The Liu family's long-neglected emotional ties; only after Lin Dong became a powerhouse did they come to visit.

They didn't come when he needed help, so what use was it to add flowers to brocade?

If not for the sake of his deceased father, he would not have met the father and daughter.

...

Lin Family Side Hall.

Liu Yanran and the Liu family patriarch sat on the chairs.

The Lin family had left Liu Yanran and the patriarch waiting for a day, and their expressions were not good.

Normally, when the Liu family visited any force, people would treat them politely as honored guests.

If they slighted the Liu family, who could bear the Liu family's wrath?

But it just so happened to be Lin Dong, who had just destroyed the Bai family...

The Liu family patriarch did not dare to get angry, but his Face grew increasingly grim. With such treatment, he naturally understood that the Lin family was very displeased with his Liu family.

Lin Dong must have a lot of resentment towards him, his Uncle Liu...

The two clans were originally family friends, but for their relationship to become like this could be said to be the Liu family's own doing!

It was likely that the entire Yunlan City was watching his Liu family become a joke.

After a long silence, Liu Yicheng said, "Yanran, why don't we go back and come another day!"

Liu Yanran shook her head, her eyes firm: "Father, let's wait a little longer! Lin Dong will definitely come to see me, he's just still angry with me!"

But her tone was somewhat weak, and even her heart wavered a little. Did Lin Dong truly have no feelings left for her at all?

Liu Yicheng sighed, shaking his head helplessly.

If Lin Dong still had feelings for his daughter, he should have come already, right?

Just then, footsteps came from outside the main hall. A handsome figure in white walked in. Liu Yanran and Liu Yicheng were both delighted; the person who came was indeed Lin Dong.

"I knew he wouldn't fail to come! He must still have feelings for me."

Liu Yanran swept away her gloom, a slight smile playing on her lips, her Face regaining a calm expression. As long as Lin Dong came, she would have a way to control him.
