343: I am a saint

Lin Ye did not lower his voice; he even used his spiritual power to make it spread far and wide.

Lin Family Head Lin Yixiong's face was as dark as ink.

What a disgrace!

To have his own son—a son he had abandoned, no less—come knocking on his door to fight; he, Lin Yixiong, who had stood tall in the Upper Domain for endless years, had never been this furious.

"Lin Ye, that you did not die in the Lower Domain is beyond my expectations. Today, I shall sever our father-son..."

"Wait a moment!"

Before Lin Yixiong could finish speaking, Lin Ye interrupted him directly, his face full of disdain: "Are you trying to say you want to sever our father-son relationship? Sorry, there's no need for that; even a vicious tiger does not devour its own cubs."

"Do you, a heartless and shameless wretch like yourself, even deserve to be a father? How about this: you claim that everything you do is for the sake of the Lin Family, right?"

"How about this? If you end your own life right here and now, I guarantee I won't touch a single blade of grass in the Lin Family."

While saying this, Lin Ye thought to himself: "Of course, I only said I wouldn't touch a single blade of grass; the people still need to be killed."

Hearing Lin Ye's words, some of the Cultivators from the Chang Sheng Lin Family turned their gazes toward Lin Yixiong.

The latter was trembling with rage, pointing a finger directly at Lin Ye: "I should never have allowed a beast like you to be born in the first place; you are simply a disgrace to my Lin Family."

"Give it a rest!"

Lin Ye waved his hand, his face full of disdain: "Shouldn't have allowed me to be born? If you hadn't allowed me to be born, what would your precious son do? Where would he have gotten that pair of eyes of mine?"

"But don't worry, before you die today, you will see how I take those eyes back."

"Furthermore, everyone in your Lin Family is a Demonic Cultivator who disregards human morality and lacks virtue. Today, I am not here for revenge; I am here to slay demons!"

As he said this, wisps of red light flashed in Lin Ye's eyes.

"A demon? Heh..."

Lin Yixiong sneered: "What is a demon? Aren't you, Lin Ye, the most evil demon in the world?! Your sect certainly changed to a nice name, Righteous Qi Sect? The Supreme Bliss Holy Land, which once had monstrous demonic might, certainly has great ambition; they even changed their name for your sake."

"But even if you changed your names, you are still Demonic Cultivators, enemies of the Righteous Path in the Ten Thousand Domains. Just like you, even though human blood flows through your veins, it cannot conceal your demonic nature!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye picked his ear and said indifferently: "Changed names? Changed what names? I don't know about that. I only know that I am the Saint of the Righteous Qi Sect, Lin Ye."

"As for being a Demonic Cultivator... you seem to have misunderstood one thing: if I say you are a demon, then you are a demon!"

"Heh..."

Lin Yixiong mocked: "You say I'm a demon, so I'm a demon? Then what are you? A Saint?"

"That's right, I am indeed a Saint."

Upright Qi aura, activate!

Hum...

A milky-white light suddenly erupted from Lin Ye's body. That light, symbolizing the Righteous Path of heaven and earth, shot straight into the clouds the moment it appeared, instantly clearing the overcast sky.

Above the firmament, the figures of three thousand Saints appeared, bowing in worship and softly chanting Lin Ye's name.

This scene left everyone stunned—whether they were from the Nangong Family, the Chang Sheng Lin Family, or the living beings watching this immortal battle.

"Is this... f*cking Upright Qi?! And the purest kind at that! It can even summon three thousand Saints to worship! Could Lin Ye be the Reincarnation of some ancient sage?!"

"Absurd! This is utterly absurd! A Demonic Cultivator known as a Peerless Fiend has cultivated Upright Qi? What on earth is happening to this world?"

"Heavenly Destiny, this kid has Heavenly Destiny... No! It seems to carry something strange. What on earth is going on with him?!"

"..."

Countless living beings stared, dumbfounded, at the white light shooting into the sky.

The people from the Dao Palace were even more incredulous. If there was anyone who could possess such pure Upright Qi besides the Academy in the Lower Domain, it would certainly be their Dao Palace.

Yet, not even the Elders of the Dao Palace, or even the Palace Master, possessed Upright Qi as pure as Lin Ye's!

Such pure Upright Qi was something they had only seen on one person: one of their Old Ancestors. However, that Old Ancestor had gone to some Secret Realm a few days ago and never returned; there had been no news since.

Lin Ye was also momentarily dazed as he looked at the white light shooting into the sky, but he quickly regained his composure, his lips curling slightly.

"I am a Saint; what is the problem with me saying you are a demon? If you are a demon, it is my job to kill you! I see that everyone in your Lin Family has fallen into the Demonic Path. Such a demonic den is unheard of; if you are allowed to continue developing, wouldn't the entire Ten Thousand Domains be affected!"

"Today, representing heaven and earth, and representing all living beings, I shall grant you salvation. Wait for death!"

These words caused the onlookers to fall into deep thought. If Lin Ye had said that the Lin Family was a demonic den just a moment ago, they would not have believed it, thinking it was slander.

But now, they had no choice but to think about it!

Someone who possesses such Upright Qi must be recognized by the Heavenly Dao!

Could the Chang Sheng Lin Family really be a demonic den? After all, what they do is not exactly honorable.

And that successor, Lin Ming, absorbing the Physique of his own two younger brothers—how does that sound so much like a successor of a Demonic Technique?

If a successor of a Demonic Technique has truly appeared, then this is no longer just Lin Ye's business, but a major event for the entire Ten Thousand Domains!

Lin Yixiong naturally sensed the wisps of hostility hidden deep within, and for a moment, he began to panic. Just as he was about to say something more.

A young man walked out slowly.

He had a handsome face and an ethereal temperament, as if he were a born king. Who else could it be but Lin Ming?

Lin Ming walked out slowly. Seeing the people from the Nangong Family, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, but he suppressed it instantly.

"Uncle, Sister Yiyi, today's events were all caused by me. Please do not make things difficult for my father; he has toiled his whole life for the Lin Family, and he has truly sacrificed too much."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Tuo's face bore a hint of impatience: "Enough, enough, you little beast. You might be able to fool others with your tricks, but can you fool me? Put away that act of yours."

"Father!"

Nangong Yiyi, who was beside him, quickly spoke up: "Is it appropriate for you to call him a little beast like that?"

"Huh?" Nangong Tuo was stunned, then whispered: "Yiyi, did I just curse myself along with him? No, this little beast... this bastard has infuriated me to death. If I don't curse him, my Dao Heart will be unstable!"

Hearing Nangong Tuo's angry curse, Lin Ming said softly: "It seems Uncle has a deep misunderstanding of me. Very well!"

As he said this, Lin Ming turned his gaze toward Lin Ye, his face wearing a look of sorrow.

"Little brother, you have suffered all these years. At that time, I was too young, and plus, our parents were worried about me, which is why they took action against you and our second brother. This matter is indeed my fault."

"But at the time, what our parents did was all to save my life!"
