9: Mysticism! Family scourge!

Hearing this, everyone instantly looked towards the source of the voice, which was Lin Xuan beside them.

Lin Tianhai immediately asked with an anxious expression:

"Lin Xuan, you said you have a method, what exactly is it? Is it difficult to implement?"

As Lin Tianhai asked, everyone around also stared at Lin Xuan with curious faces.

They also wanted to know what kind of surprise this prodigy of their Lin Family could bring them.

In response, Lin Xuan did not keep them in suspense and said directly:

"This method is actually based on two secret arts I obtained from that inheritance..."

"One secret art is called Spirit Restriction. Anyone who Cultivates this secret art will not only be unable to reveal any content of what they know, but even if other ill-intentioned Cultivators use any secret art, they will be unable to obtain the information. This is enough to ensure that the secrets of my Lin Family are never leaked."

"As for the other secret art, it can confirm whether a Lin Family member is 100% loyal to the Lin Family. However, this secret art can only be used by me, so I won't introduce it further. But I can guarantee with my life that it will not be wrong!"

In fact, what Lin Xuan said was half true and half false. The secret art Spirit Restriction is real; it was redeemed by the System on temporary credit for Lin Xuan, and because of this, Lin Xuan once again owed a large amount of Lin Family Luck points.

As for the other secret art, of course, it didn't exist. However, he had the Eye of Lin Family Luck, which could check the information of Lin Family members at any time. This was much better and more accurate than any secret art.

However, according to the System, the Spirit Restriction secret art cannot be broken or bypassed by even the most powerful Cultivators or other secret arts to obtain information...

Lin Xuan still clearly remembered the System's confident words at that time...

"Ding, products from this System are guaranteed to be high-quality!"

"Ding, host, do not try to question this System. This System is serious about being a System!"

"Ding, host, do not compare those flashy and cheap goods with this System!"

"Ding, if the effect of this secret art is false, you don't need to say anything, this System itself won't have the face to mingle among the System race."

...

However, even though the System guaranteed this, it was ruthless when charging him, directly leaving him with a "huge debt" of 2 million. And he had no way to refuse it, otherwise, he couldn't get the guarantee at all.

Fortunately, the System gave a relatively long time, a full year.

With such a long time, was he still afraid of not being able to repay this debt?

...

Afterward, Lin Xuan took out the secret art named Spirit Restriction and said:

"Senior elders, please see, this is the Spirit Restriction secret art..."

A Jade Slip suddenly appeared in Lin Xuan's hand, and that secret art was inscribed within it.

Soon, everyone examined the content of the Jade Slip one by one and found that the content recorded within was indeed as Lin Xuan said, even more detailed.

Moreover, everyone also found that the difficulty of cultivating this secret art was very low; basically, anyone could Cultivate it, and it could generally be completed within a day.

Seeing this, everyone also breathed a sigh of relief. At least, as long as the Lin Family members were suitable and qualified, they could let them know these secrets without worry.

This would allow more Lin Family members to improve quickly.

"Hahahaha, good, good, good!"

"As expected of the Lin Family's prodigy, he even solved these difficult problems for us. This way, we can operate freely and quickly improve the strength of my Lin Family without being hesitant, haha!"

"That's right, that's right!"

"Those major forces, just wait. My Lin Family will soon crush all of you, hehehe!"

...

After everyone gradually calmed down, Great Ancestor Lin Changxiao Changxiao looked at Lin Xuan with a serious and earnest expression and said:

"Lin Xuan, you have made such a great contribution to the Lin Family, and you should be greatly rewarded... It's just a pity that the Lin Family is not strong enough to give you too much help..."

"But don't worry, before you grow up, we old guys will bear everything. Even if all of us sacrifice ourselves, we will definitely protect your safety and guard your growth!"

"Lin Xuan, on behalf of all the Lin Family members, I thank you for your significant contribution to the Lin Family!"

After speaking, he was about to perform the highest courtesy of the Lin Family towards Lin Xuan, and the others also nodded and bowed to Lin Xuan.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan was instantly startled, but it was too late for him to stop them, so he quickly dodged.

Oh my goodness!

Ancestors, you are trying to make me die on the spot!

Lin Xuan was extremely flustered in his heart.

How could he possibly accept this? Besides his father Lin Tianhai and a few of his grandfather's generation, everyone else here was of his ancestors' generation!

Especially the three Ancestors, they were the Ancestors of Ancestors!

Although his contribution to the Lin Family indeed deserved this courtesy, he could not accept it with a clear conscience!

After dodging, Lin Xuan also spoke to the Ancestors and Clan Elders:

"Esteemed Ancestors and Clan Elders, you are shortening my lifespan by doing this..."

"The Lin Family is my home. Making contributions to the Lin Family is my bounden duty and obligation!"

"What's more, the Lin Family has painstakingly raised me for 16 years, how can I not repay the Lin Family with a prosperous era?"

"If one day the Lin Family is in trouble, I will definitely point my sword at the sky, slay the enemy, and overcome the difficulty..."

"With the blood of the enemy, forge the glory of my Lin Family!

...

Hearing this, everyone seemed to be frozen in place.

After a long time,

Great Ancestor Lin Changxiao Changxiao burst into laughter and said:

"Hahaha, well said, 'With the blood of the enemy, forge the glory of my Lin Family'. It makes even this Ancestor's blood boil."

"With you, Lin Xuan, even if my Lin Family didn't have those opportunities, we would definitely rise!"

In response, everyone else also agreed.

"That's right, the greatest Opportunity for my Lin Family is definitely not those few seemingly precious supreme treasures from before. Lin Xuan is the greatest Opportunity for my Lin Family!"

"That's right, as long as Lin Xuan is here, what does it matter if we don't have those few supreme treasures? Haha."

"Exactly, exactly!"

...

The next day,

In the eyes of the outside world, the Lin Family remained extremely calm...

But this was only on the surface. In the shadows unknown to the outside world, the Lin Family had already begun to operate in full swing.

Batches of unsuspecting Lin Family members began to be arranged for Lin Xuan to examine. Qualified Lin Family members would be taken to the Tianyun Sea.

Of course, the real situation would not be told to them; they would only be told that the Lin Family had obtained an Opportunity, but they did not know what it specifically was.

However, these Lin Family members did not care. They were completely loyal to the Lin Family and would not betray it. The more opportunities the Lin Family obtained, the better. They only needed to Cultivate diligently and contribute better to the Lin Family.

After a series of examinations by Lin Xuan, he found that the vast majority of the entire Lin Family members were loyal to the Lin Family, with only a very small portion being pure Lin Family scourges.

Among these people were those who sold out the Lin Family's interests, those who betrayed the Lin Family for personal gain, and even those who betrayed the Lin Family to be spies for hostile forces, and so on.

The high-level members of the Lin Family were naturally furious about these Lin Family scourges. They had thought that the Lin Family would have scourges, but they didn't expect there to be as many as several hundred.

But in fact, the Lin Family was already doing well. With a base of hundreds of thousands of Lin Family members, there were only a few hundred scourges. This was much better than other forces.

There was even a bizarre force in the Central Province where only a pathetic thirty percent of the people were truly loyal to the force, while the other seventy percent were all spies from other forces!

When the news spread at that time, it directly stunned the various forces, causing countless forces to become vigilant and begin thoroughly investigating their own forces.

...

Regarding these Lin Family scourges, Great Ancestor Lin Changxiao Changxiao directly ordered that all of them have their cultivation abolished and be imprisoned in the Lin Family's dungeon. They would be publicly judged a month later to warn the Lin Family members!
