172: Joining the Lin family is the best decision I have ever made in my life!

After completely subduing this section of the Tongtian River, the Lin Family army began their "victorious return" the next day.

Although they had experienced a major battle, the Lin Family members showed no signs of fatigue; instead, each one was full of spirit, their backs straight and stiff.

You couldn't bend them even if you tried.

...

At noon.

Lin Family.

"Crack..."

Suddenly, spatial passages appeared above the Lin Family, and then the Lin Family army continuously emerged...

"They're back! The Clan Leader and the others are back!" Whether old or young, the Lin Family members' hanging hearts finally settled, and they all excitedly began to speak.

And core members like Lu Mengxin and Lin Xuan had already been waiting here early. Upon seeing Lin Tianhai and the others come out, they instantly went up to greet them.

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

Everyone respectfully bowed towards Lin Changxiao and the other two.

"Hahaha, rise, everything went smoothly on this trip, you can all rest assured," Lin Changxiao said with a smile.

Everyone nodded with smiles.

Just then, Lin Xuan suddenly spoke, "Grand Ancestor, you... you've broken through to the Great Emperor!"

Although Lin Xuan was asking, his tone was clearly affirmative, without a trace of doubt.

In fact, Lin Xuan had known for a long time. Saying it now was just to avoid being too abrupt.

Although he did not participate in this battle because he was in seclusion consolidating his cultivation and sorting out his own Great Dao, he knew about it immediately through the System.

Hearing Lin Xuan's words, the Lin Family members who stayed behind all looked towards their Grand Ancestor, their eyes filled with strong anticipation.

And Lin Changxiao was also taken aback. He hadn't expected that the first to notice his change would be this monstrous junior of his who constantly created miracles.

But thinking of the shocks Lin Xuan had brought time and time again, he felt relieved.

Alas, it's not surprising that this little fellow could tell...

Lin Changxiao shook his head helplessly, "There really is nothing that can be hidden from you, kid."

"That's right, this old man has indeed attained the Great Emperor realm."

Lin Changxiao's voice was not loud, but it was heard by every Lin Family member.

"..."

After a brief silence, unprecedented cheers erupted within the Lin Family.

"Ahhhhhh... What did I hear? The Grand Ancestor has broken through to the Great Emperor! The Grand Ancestor has broken through to the Great Emperor!!! Hahaha..."

"The Grand Ancestor is indeed my idol, the first Great Emperor in the history of our Lin Family! Hahaha..."

...

For the next few days, the Lin Family was brightly lit, celebrating throughout the night!

Everyone was fully expressing the joy and excitement in their hearts.

--

Three days later.

Since Lin Changxiao broke through to the Great Emperor, who was the happiest besides the Lin Family members?

Without a doubt, it was the Heavenly Poison Profound Yin Python!

See? Today, Tian Du enthusiastically started his work again...

Northwest side of the Lin Family territory.

This was where the Lin Family specifically placed the entrances to various Mystic Realms and Small Worlds.

Tian Du swaggered towards this place. The Lin Family members on the road greeted him one after another.

"Oh, Elder Tian Du, are you going to inspect the Xuanhu Mystic Realm again?"

"Greetings, Elder Tian Du!"

...

That's right, our Tian Du now has a position in the Lin Family!

Ever since Tian Du became Lin Tianyu's little brother and followed him to the Lin Family, Tian Du has completely unleashed his "lickspittle" talent and his very discerning personality. Coupled with his excellent performance of being the first to rush forward whenever something happened to the Lin Family.

Now, after hard work, he has successfully secured the position of an Elder with a different surname in the Lin Family!!!

Although his power is not great, his status is equal to that of a regular Lin Family Elder, and his treatment is no worse than theirs.

With the help of the Lin Family, his own cultivation has risen steadily, and he is now a Demon Saint at the Peak of the Great Saint Realm.

His little life is simply wonderful every day!

As for upholding demon morality or something? Can that get you Holy Pills?

Xuanhu Mystic Realm Entrance.

"Greetings, Elder Tian Du!" The two Lin Family members guarding the entrance both bowed upon seeing Tian Du arrive.

"Oh dear, oh dear, how many times have I told you? No need to call me Elder, no need to call me Elder, we're all Family."

Tian Du didn't feel superior to ordinary Lin Family members just because he became an Elder with a different surname in the Lin Family. Instead, he acted like an old acquaintance, putting his arm around the shoulders of the two Lin Family members, his tone firm:

"Old Du here is just a loyal supporter of the Lin Family! Elder is just the Family's recognition of Old Du. We're all Family, just call me Old Du."

"..."

"Alright, alright, Old Du still needs to inspect the Mystic Realm, so I'll be going first. Next time I'll bring the beautiful snake over to play with you!"

"Elder, that's not what we meant..."

However, by this time, Tian Du had already entered the Mystic Realm.

The Xuanhu Mystic Realm was the Mystic Realm that Lin Xuan had refined back then. It has now been moved back to the Lin Family and named the Xuanhu Mystic Realm.

And now, the management of the Xuanhu Mystic Realm is precisely the responsibility of Tian Du, who leads the Lin Family members in taking care of it.

Inside the Mystic Realm.

As a former native resident, Tian Du was extremely familiar with this place. He quickly arrived at the core of the Mystic Realm, the island in the center of the lake.

The island has undergone a great transformation now, filled with various spirit herbs and plants everywhere.

And besides the Lin Family members, dozens of Demon Beasts at the Venerable Realm and above are responsible for daily maintenance.

Tian Du walked swaggeringly, with steps that ignored everyone, towards this group of former "old friends."

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Tian Du clicked his tongue with a mocking expression.

"Hmph! Traitor of the Demon Clan, what are you here for again?"

"Exactly! You traitor who abandoned the pride of the Demon Clan and willingly became a lackey of the Humans, get lost!"

"It no longer has demon morality, it's not worthy of being called a demon!"

"Roar..." "Roar..."

A group of Demon Beasts roared angrily upon seeing Tian Du, their eyes filled with resentment as they looked at him.

However, Tian Du was completely unmoved by this. After arriving here, he pulled out a lounge chair, lay back sprawled out, while munching on Holy Fruits and drinking Holy Spring water, finally letting out a loud burp.

"Burp~~"

Seeing this made the demons both envious and annoyed.

Only then did Tian Du slowly speak, "First, let me correct you. Firstly, you are now considered slaves of my Lin Family. Secondly, Old Du here is now an Elder with a different surname of the Lin Family!"

"Please address me as... Elder Tian Du!"

Tian Du looked at the demons with a smug expression, and took out the identity token he had polished bright, hanging it on his waist.

Then he continued, "Also, what's the use of that demon morality you speak of? Can it get you Holy Pills?"

"Holy Pills, hey, do you know what Holy Pills are? They are treasures, just one can equal a hundred years of your hard cultivation... Come, come, let me show you this Elder's domineering and beautiful scales now..."

"Look at this luster, this strength... it's hundreds of times more beautiful and harder than yours, you wouldn't know... Look at this Elder's current cultivation... Peak Great Saint Realm! A height you will never have a chance to reach in your lifetime."

"As for you few pieces of trash who used to act so arrogant at the early Great Saint Realm, this Elder can now slap ten of you to death with one hand, hahaha!"

...

Tian Du was completely showing off in a flashy manner, boasting and mocking wildly in front of the demons.

And this has almost become his fixed weekly activity.

"Phew... Old Du is getting dry-mouthed from talking..."

"Finally, let me tell you some good news... Now, that supreme, magnificent, domineering, mighty, handsome, unparalleled existence of my Lin Family - the Lin Family's Grand Ancestor, has successfully attained the Dao and become a peerless Emperor comparable to a Demon Emperor!"

"Under the leadership of that Lord, my Lin Family will eventually become stronger and stronger!"

"And Old Du here, under the grace of that Lord, will also reach heights I never dared to imagine before! Hahaha..."

"And you can only be slaves of my Lin Family here for a lifetime, until your lives end."

The demons were completely stunned on the spot.

A peerless Human Emperor comparable to a Demon Emperor...

In the end, the demons shed tears of regret...

Seeing their appearance, Tian Du was even more glad of his choice back then.

"Joining the Lin Family is the most correct decision I, Tian Du, have ever made in this life!"
