33: Lin Zhentian's decision, research on ancient trees!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

Just then, a barrage of fine needles, like ox hair, suddenly shot out from all directions towards Lei Pi!

It was Lin Dong, seeing Lei Pi attempting to escape, who chose to intervene.

However, Lin Dong did not use Yuan Power attacks; instead, he used Mental Energy to control the Shattering Yuan Needles, intercepting Lei Pi.

Even if only a tenth of the hundreds of Shattering Yuan Needles hit Lei Pi, it would be enough to slow him down.

Lei Pi had previously witnessed Lin Fan using Shattering Yuan Needles to kill Lei Xing, so upon seeing hundreds of Shattering Yuan Needles attack simultaneously, his expression immediately changed drastically.

"Boom!"

Lei Pi frantically channeled all of his Yuan Power, fiercely throwing two punches forward. The violent Yuan Power storm blew some of the Shattering Yuan Needles slightly off course.

But dozens of Shattering Yuan Needles still shot into Lei Pi's body!

With dozens of Shattering Yuan Needles entering his body, Lei Pi's body instantly stiffened.

Lin Fan naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. He once again activated a Mental Energy shockwave, like an arrow, fiercely piercing towards Lei Pi's mind.

"Ah!"

Lei Pi couldn't help but let out a cry of pain, and his body fell to the ground with a "thump."

At the same time, Lin Fan used his Mental Energy to control three Shattering Yuan Needles, which shot towards Lei Pi's glabella, throat, and heart respectively!

The Shattering Yuan Needles propelled by Lin Fan's Mental Energy were much faster than those released by Lin Dong, instantly piercing through Lei Pi's three vital points!

"Uh..."

Lei Pi only managed to utter a single syllable before he lost his life. His body fell backward, his eyes wide open, dying with unclosed eyes!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

With a thought from Lin Fan, the Shattering Yuan Needles that had been shot out were retracted back into the System Space.

Subsequently, Lin Dong also stepped forward and retrieved his Shattering Yuan Needles into his cosmos sack.

"Faner, Dong'er, Qing Tan!"

At this moment, dozens of figures rapidly approached from the other end of the street.

The leader was Lin Xiao.

"Third Uncle (Father)!"

Upon seeing Lin Xiao arrive, the three of them each called out.

Lin Xiao's expression immediately changed when he saw the corpses on the ground. He shielded Lin Fan and the other two behind him and asked in a deep voice, "What happened here?"

Qing Tan said somewhat indignantly, "It was people from the Lei Family, Lei Pi and Lei Xing, who ambushed us with over a dozen men. It's too hateful! Fortunately, Lin Fan Ge is powerful and killed them all."

"Lei Pi, Lei Xing?"

Lin Xiao's expression subtly changed upon hearing this. He then carefully examined the corpses on the ground and quickly found Lei Pi among them, but he didn't see Lei Xing's body. "Did Lei Xing escape?"

Lin Fan pointed to a charred mass on the ground, "That's Lei Xing."

"Hiss!"

The Lin Family guards who had followed Lin Xiao couldn't help but gasp in shock at this sight.

Even Lin Xiao couldn't help but twitch his face.

"Good lad!" Lin Xiao patted Lin Fan's shoulder, saying with satisfaction.

The Lin Family guards nearby looked at Lin Fan with eyes full of admiration.

Lin Fan suddenly said, "Third Uncle, let's have everyone take these bodies away first. Don't let the Lei Family know they're dead for now."

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed, "You mean to?"

Lin Fan smiled, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

Lin Xiao nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Take all the bodies, including that charred mass. We're going back!" "Yes!"

The guards respectfully agreed, then carried the bodies on the ground and, along with Lin Xiao's group, quickly returned to Tiemu Village.

In Tiemu Village, Lin Zhentian became furious upon learning that Lin Fan and the other two had been attacked by the Lei Family. "The Lei Family is truly too presumptuous! Do they really think my Lin Family is easy to bully?"

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "Father, don't worry. Lei Pi and Lei Xing not only failed to achieve anything, but they were both killed by Faner."

Lin Xiao's words greatly shocked Lin Zhentian, Lin Ken, and Lin Mang.

"This boy is truly unbelievable," Lin Zhentian stroked his beard and laughed after a long while, feeling incredibly pleased.

Lin Mang's eyes turned cold, and he said, "Father, it seems the Lei Family intends to personally take action against our Lin Family this time. How should we respond?"

Lin Zhentian pondered for a moment and said, "Give the order for the Lin Family to enter a state of alert, and constantly monitor the Lei Family's every move. Lei Bao has suffered such a great loss, he definitely won't let it go."

Lin Fan, however, interjected at this point, "Grandfather, why should we wait for the Lei Family to come knocking on our door? Why not go all out and directly destroy the Lei Family!"

"The Lei Family originally had five Heavenly Yuan Realm experts. Now, two have been killed by me, leaving three."

"On the other hand, our Lin Family, including me and Lin Dong, now has five Heavenly Yuan Realm experts! What's more, there's also Third Uncle, a Lesser Yuandan Realm expert!"

As Lin Fan's words fell, Lin Zhentian and the three Lin Ken brothers all wore thoughtful expressions.

Lin Dong, however, directly stepped forward and echoed, "Grandfather, I think Lin Fan Ge is right. The Lei Family has been accustomed to acting arrogantly in Qingyang Town and has targeted our Lin Family multiple times."

"Not to mention distant events, they previously colluded with the Black Dragon Stronghold bandits to attack Tiemu Village, and this time they sent two Heavenly Yuan Realm experts to ambush us three juniors."

"If our strength were insufficient, that would be one thing, but now that our Lin Family's strength surpasses the Lei Family's, why should we keep the Lei Family around to disgust us? Who knows what despicable things they will do in the future?"

Lin Fan nodded and said, "Exactly. There are only a thousand days to be a thief, but no thousand days to guard against one? The Lei Family's desire to destroy my Lin Family will not die. Now is the time to pluck out the Lei Family, this malignant tumor!"

"Hahahaha, well said!" Lin Zhentian burst into laughter after hearing the words of his two most outstanding grandsons.

"Ever since I came to Qingyang Town and established the Lin Family, we have always been suppressed and squeezed by the Lei Family, and we could only passively defend."

"Over these years, this old man has become a bit too cautious. My good grandsons are much more decisive!"

At this point, Lin Zhentian suddenly stood up and declared loudly, "Lin Ken, Lin Mang, Lin Xiao, gather the Lin Family guards! We will move out at the third watch tonight and wipe out the Lei Family!"

"Yes, Father!"

Lin Ken, Lin Mang, and Lin Xiao responded in unison upon hearing this.

With the plan decided, Lin Zhentian and his three sons began to fully gather the Lin Family guards and prepare for battle.

Lin Fan, Lin Dong, and Qing Tan, meanwhile, had some free time.

"Lin Dong, let's go back and study that ancient wood first. Perhaps we can gain something from it."

Suddenly, Lin Fan remembered the ancient wood they bought earlier that day, so he said to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong, of course, had no objections to this.

Qing Tan had nothing else to do, so she joined them.

Before long, the three arrived at Lin Dong's room.

Lin Dong took out the moss-covered ancient wood from his cosmos sack and carefully wiped away the moss, revealing the faint runes on the ancient wood.

Lin Fan, pretending to examine the ancient wood, looked at it for a few moments and said, "The contents within this ancient wood seem to be blocked by a barrier formed by Mental Energy. Let me try to break through the barrier with my Mental Energy first."

Having said that, Lin Fan immediately mobilized the Mental Energy from his Niwan Palace, concentrating it into an invisible drill, and fiercely forced it into the ancient wood.
