159: How dare a bedbug presume to speak of the might of Heaven?
The Two Realms fell into a deathly silence.
The current Lin You indeed had the qualifications to say such things.
Reaching the Longevity Peak at eighteen—looking across the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, one couldn't find a second person like him.
Prodigies didn't just look up to him; they couldn't even hope to see his back!
At this moment, everyone understood; they accepted this cruel and helpless reality.
In these Two Realms, Lin You alone reigned supreme!
But suddenly... the sky seemed to turn dim and lusterless.
Thunderous footsteps echoed from above the firmament.
Everyone looked up, seeing only countless figures standing in the Void Realm, seemingly carrying vast power that made it impossible to see them clearly.
Each divine shadow emitted a terrifying pressure that swept through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths!
"What arrogant words."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..."
"A mere Longevity stage Cultivator dares to speak so grandiosely."
"Lin You, have you forgotten that all of this..."
"Was bestowed upon you by us."
—Boom!
The boundless curtain of the sky was instantly torn open.
Revealed behind the clouds were the figures of hundreds of Longevity Family Cultivators.
Their faces bore undisguised pride and superiority, as if their mere presence here was a great mercy to all living beings.
Leading them were people from the Ximen Family.
The very Family that had been nearly wiped out in the Dragon Court by Lin You and Qin Feng!
The man at the head had phoenix eyes and wore a black-gold robe, exuding an air of nobility.
He looked at Lin You.
"You are the one who declared the Lin Family ranks among the Longevity Families?"
Lin You raised an eyebrow, staring directly at the hundreds of figures in the sky.
"So what if I did?"
Ximen Xiangyuan sneered and shook his head. "Who gave you the guts?"
"Last time, you were allowed to play tricks and take away the Two Realms; shouldn't you be secretly rejoicing?"
"Is the status of a Longevity Family something you can reach for?"
As his voice fell...
The heavens seemed to freeze.
Hundreds of figures slowly walked out from the clouds and arrived before Lin You, their faces filled with undisguised excitement and arrogance.
The scenes within the Dragon Court had long since stirred their killing intent.
They had no opportunity before, but now... it was perfect!
Lin You seemed oblivious; a smile curled on his lips as he lay lazily upon his throne.
"Guts?"
"The thing I, Lin You, lack the least is exactly that."
"Now that I have achieved great merit in the Ancient Burial Ground and my cultivation has reached the Longevity Peak,"
"Why shouldn't I say the Lin Family ranks among the Longevity Families?"
"As for the Two Realms..."
"Tsk, it seems your memories have become a bit confused."
Lin You's finger pointed at each Family one by one.
"Back then, it was you who begged me to release your people."
"The Two Realms were the condition for that exchange."
"Did you forget?"
As his voice fell...
The pupils of all the Cultivators in the Two Realms couldn't help but dilate.
Begged to release people?
The Dragon Court?
Negotiating conditions with Longevity Families—what kind of joke was this???
The crowd was furious.
"Presumptuous! Lin You, do you know who you are talking to?"
"Begging you? You must be dreaming! You bastard, speaking such wild words!"
"Truly audacious! You want the Lin Family to be a Longevity Family, but have you asked for the opinions of all the Longevity Families?"
"Have you asked for the opinion of the Longevity Lin Family!"
"Why waste words with such a fanatic? We should just strike and suppress him!"
Ximen Xiangyuan sneered repeatedly, clenching his teeth.
"You are indeed as arrogant as the rumors say."
"What a pity... I should have killed you completely back then!"
Lin You shook his head, speaking nonchalantly.
"You didn't have the ability."
"Just like those Ximen Family Disciples back then; they didn't have the ability either."
"Oh..."
"I almost forgot. Your Ximen Family Disciples in the Dragon Court... tsk, were all killed by me!"
Ximen Xiangyuan flew into a rage.
And all the Cultivators of the Two Realms held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Lin You's words fell into their ears like thunderclaps.
They even began to feel fear, worrying that they might meet with disaster just for hearing things they shouldn't!
"You are provoking the heavenly might of the Longevity Families!" Ximen Xiangyuan narrowed his eyes, his killing intent surging.
"Do you still have heavenly might?" Lin You laughed.
"A bunch of insects hiding in the gutters, relying on the protection of your ancestors to survive until now."
"In the Ancient Burial Ground, ever since the Human Race lost Lin Tangfeng, they have been suppressed by the Demon Race until today—until I, Lin You, appeared."
"Only then did we barely win a round."
"Is this your heavenly might?"
"Pathetic to the extreme. If you truly have ability, then lead the Ximen Family to clash head-on with the Demon Race, slaughtering them until blood flows like a river and millions of corpses lie prostrate."
"Then, I, Lin You, would say from the bottom of my heart that you are indomitable."
"Daring to claim heavenly might while fighting amongst yourselves?"
"What a joke!"
Lin You's words were like needles to the heart.
He had offended almost all the Longevity Families to the core.
Such naked sarcasm tore away everyone's last shred of dignity.
How many years had they controlled the All Heavens?
Yet in the Ancient Burial Ground, they didn't even dare to step half a foot out of Zhen Tian Pass.
They even had to set up shackles in the Star Domains to prevent other Star Domain Cultivators from emerging and dividing their interests.
People like this weren't worth a damn.
The string of words left the Cultivators of the Two Realms stunned.
Some old fellows who had lived for tens of thousands of years seemed to know something; they exchanged Divine Thoughts and began to whisper.
The members of the various Longevity Families all had ashen faces.
If this was confirmed, the reputation of the Longevity Families in everyone's hearts would plummet.
How could they rule the All Heavens in the future!
"Lin You, stop talking nonsense! We have rendered great service for the Human Race; how can we allow a junior like you to spout such lies!"
"Indeed, if it weren't for our Longevity Families, these All Heavens would have been gone long ago."
"You have only achieved a tiny bit of merit; what are you acting so high and mighty for!"
Ximen Xiangyuan's gaze was even more somber; he could no longer restrain himself while looking at Lin You's expression.
"You are looking for death!"
Lin You laughed lightly and shook his head.
"Enough nonsense."
"Are you here today to demand an explanation? Then save your breath; I, Lin You, do not recognize that logic."
"Not only will my Lin Family rank among the Longevity Families,"
"From this day forward, all the Spirit Stones—my Lin Family wants them all!"
"As for how to distribute them and how much to give to whom, that depends on my mood."
As soon as these words came out...
The pupils of the hundreds of Longevity Family Cultivators suddenly contracted.
The Spirit Stones of the Two Realms numbered in the hundreds of millions!
To lose them just like that was something they simply could not accept.
"As for who to distribute them to..."
Who else could you give them to if not those you are friendly with, like the Zhuge Family and the Gu Family?
Without tributes and massive resources, what kind of Longevity Families would they be!
But before they could speak, Lin You's indifferent voice rang out as he lifted his longsword, his killing intent cold and sharp.
"If you came here to kill..."
"Enough people have died today. I will give you thirty breaths of time."
"Get out of the Two Realms."
"Otherwise, you will all be executed!"
