142: Kill? The power of the Holy King!
The next day
Lei Emperor City
"Two Little friends, please take this. This is the reward for your competition."
The Thunder Emperor Palace Elder said with a smile.
And handed the two space rings to Lin Yan and Lin Dong respectively.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Lin Yan and Lin Dong took the space rings, smiled knowingly, and cupped their hands.
"Haha, this is what you deserve."
The Thunder Emperor Palace Elder laughed loudly, then said again:
"Two Little friends have outstanding talent. Are you willing to join my Thunder Emperor Palace?"
"With the talent of the two Little friends, I, this old man, can guarantee that you will at least be Core Disciples of my Thunder Emperor Palace!"
It's here!
Lin Yan and Lin Dong thought to themselves.
They knew this scene would surely happen, but since they were members of the Lin Family, it was naturally impossible for them to join the Thunder Emperor Palace. So, they immediately used the excuse they had prepared beforehand to politely refuse the other party.
"Senior, I am truly sorry. I am used to being free and undisciplined, so I'm afraid I have no connection with your Sect..."
"Senior, I am sorry, I..."
...
The Thunder Emperor Palace Elder was also helpless. Was his Thunder Emperor Palace really that unattractive?
"Alas, never mind, never mind. My Thunder Emperor Palace is not a Sect that forces people."
...
The hustle and bustle of Lei Emperor City gradually faded away. Lin Dong and Lin Yan walked side by side, embarking on a new journey.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, lengthening their shadows.
"Zu Di, your strength has grown again. Even that Young Master Tian Qing couldn't last long in your hands."
Lin Yan said with a smile.
Lin Dong smiled faintly and said humbly, "It was just luck. Young Master Tian Qing's strength is not weak, but he was too arrogant and underestimated his opponent."
Lin Yan laughed and cursed, "What luck or no luck? Winning is winning."
After speaking, Lin Yan suddenly frowned and scanned the surroundings vigilantly with his gaze: "Zu Di, do you feel... something is not right around here?"
Lin Dong did not answer, but his footsteps had already stopped.
His gaze was as sharp as a blade, scanning the dense forest around them.
A faint, almost imperceptible killing intent permeated the air, as if countless eyes were lurking in the shadows.
The next moment, a cold laugh suddenly echoed in the void.
Immediately after, several figures slowly walked out of the void. Leading them were several Elders from the Tianmen Sect.
Their gazes were sinister, and their faces carried undisguised killing intent.
"You, you are quite alert."
An Elder said with a cold smile, "Unfortunately, today you are destined not to leave this place."
Another Elder said angrily, "Little brats, you shattered my Young Master's Dao Heart, and you still want to leave safely? If I don't tear you into ten thousand pieces today, where will my Tianmen Sect's face be!"
Lin Dong and Lin Yan's expressions remained calm, but a hint of coldness appeared in their eyes.
"Go to hell!"
A Tianmen Sect Elder roared angrily, his figure suddenly surged forward, and he struck a palm towards Lin Dong.
The palm wind was fierce, carrying world-destroying power, clearly intending to kill with one blow.
However, Lin Dong and Lin Yan didn't even move.
Just as the Elder's palm wind was about to reach Lin Dong, an old yet majestic voice suddenly sounded: "A mere early Saint King Realm dares to attack a disciple of my Lin Family?"
Before the voice finished, a figure appeared like a ghost in front of Lin Dong. With a wave of his hand, the Elder's palm wind instantly dissipated into nothingness.
Immediately after, a terrifying pressure swept out, directly sending that Elder flying back. He fell heavily to the ground, spitting out blood.
"Middle Saint King Realm!"
The faces of the other Elders changed dramatically, and their eyes were full of horror.
The person who arrived was precisely the Lin Family's Clan Elder.
He wore a grey robe, his hair and beard were all white, but his gaze was like lightning, and he exuded a suffocating pressure around him.
He coldly glanced at the several Elders of the Tianmen Sect, his tone filled with disdain: "Is this all the ability the Tianmen Sect has?"
An Elder gritted his teeth and said, "Who are you, sir? Why are you hindering our business? Aren't you afraid of offending my Tianmen Sect!"
"Oh?"
Lin Zhentian raised an eyebrow, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "So what if it's the Tianmen Sect? This old man isn't scared easily."
Before his voice fell, his figure suddenly disappeared.
The next moment, he had already appeared before that Elder and struck out with a palm.
That Elder didn't even have a chance to react before being struck in the chest by a palm. His entire body flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a large tree, his aura instantly becoming weak.
"Attack together!"
Seeing this, the remaining Elders roared angrily and attacked in unison.
For a moment, sword light, palm shadows, and fist winds intertwined, sweeping towards the Clan Elder.
However, the Lin Family's Clan Elder didn't even frown.
With his hands clasped behind his back, his figure moved like a ghost through the attacks. With every move he made, an Elder was sent flying back.
In just a moment, the several Elders of the Tianmen Sect all fell to the ground, their aura weak, completely unable to fight back.
The Lin Family's Clan Elder coldly glanced at them and scoffed, "Is this all the ability the Tianmen Sect Elders have?"
An Elder struggled to lift his head, his eyes filled with resentment: "You... don't be smug! My Tianmen Sect will not let you go!"
"Unfortunately, you won't live to see it!"
"Die!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and waved. A terrifying wave of spiritual power swept out, directly engulfing those several Elders.
The next moment, those several Elders didn't even have time to let out a scream before turning into a cloud of blood mist, dissipating between heaven and earth.
The Lin Family's Clan Elder withdrew his palm, turned to look at Lin Dong and Lin Yan, and asked with a hint of concern: "Are you two alright?"
Lin Dong and Lin Yan shook their heads: "Thank you, Clan Elder, for your help. We are fine."
The Lin Family's Clan Elder smiled: "You are the future of my Lin Family, so naturally I must protect your safety. However, this incident has also served as a reminder to you. The path of cultivation is extremely dangerous, and you must not be careless at any time."
Lin Dong and Lin Yan nodded, a hint of solemnity in their eyes: "Don't worry, Clan Elder, we understand."
The Lin Family's Clan Elder nodded with satisfaction, then looked into the distance, his tone carrying a hint of deeper meaning: "The Tianmen Sect will not let this matter rest. Next, you should consider whether you still want to train in the Thunder Domain... But rest assured, it's fine to continue staying in the Thunder Domain. With this old man here, I will naturally protect you."
"As long as they are not experts above the late Saint King Realm, this old man guarantees your safety!"
The Lin Family's Clan Elder paused, then said seriously: "However, this old man will only intervene when you encounter life-threatening danger, and when other shameless old fogeys make a move. As for battles between the younger generation, that will depend on your own strength."
Lin Dong and Lin Yan exchanged glances and replied in unison:
"Don't worry, Clan Elder. In battles between peers, if we lose, we can only blame our lack of strength!"
"As for whether to stay in the Thunder Domain... let's leave. Anyway, the Central Province is vast and rich in resources, with many places for training. We can also broaden our horizons."
The Lin Family's Clan Elder nodded with satisfaction. After giving the two a look of appreciation, his figure slowly disappeared, continuing to hide in a certain void, silently protecting Lin Dong and the others on their journey.
"Zu Di, next stop, Yan Domain, alright?"
"Whatever Brother Yan decides is fine!"
