65: You really don't have much time!

When Lin Fan and Lin Dong walked out of the Symbol Master Tower, they were met with a scene of figures standing like wooden stakes.

It was Master Yan, Zi Yue, and other Symbol Masters from Yan City!

Upon seeing Lin Fan and Lin Dong, everyone's gaze immediately fell upon the two of them, as if they had seen a ghost!

"You two actually reached the ninth floor?" Master Yan stared intently at Lin Fan and Lin Dong, his voice trembling slightly.

Lin Fan smiled faintly, "Isn't it just entering the ninth floor? Is there a need to be so shocked?"

"You fellow!" Master Yan rolled his eyes, "You should know, even I can't step onto the ninth floor!"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, looking surprised, "Really? I thought Master Yan, you had already been up there and taken all the good stuff inside."

Master Yan said, annoyed, "You think too highly of me."

At this moment, Zi Yue, who was standing nearby, stepped forward, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Lin Fan and Lin Dong, and she parted her red lips to say, "This time, thank you both!"

Lin Fan said, "It's just fulfilling a promise."

Master Yan stroked his beard and laughed, "You two brothers are truly one more Prodigy than the other. It's one thing for Lin Dong to enter the Third-Level Spiritual Symbol Master realm, but you actually directly Breakthrough to a Fourth-Level Spiritual Symbol Master!"

Lin Fan and Lin Dong exchanged glances and laughed, "Just good luck."

"Oh, right, the Lin family has recently encountered a bit of trouble," Master Yan suddenly said to Lin Fan, as if remembering something.

Lin Fan's expression turned slightly cold, "Did the Blood Wolf Gang make a move on the Lin family?"

Master Yan shook his head, "Not the Blood Wolf Gang. It's a force within Yan City called the Ghost Blade Sect."

"They ambushed and robbed the yang yuan stones the Lin family was transporting from Qingyang Town. Two Symbol Masters from our Symbol Master Tower intervened, and they didn't succeed."

"Ghost Blade Sect, I understand," Lin Fan nodded slightly, then said, "We'll head back first."

Master Yan smiled, "You've been away from home for so long, it's time to go back and see."

Lin Fan and Lin Dong nodded to Zi Yue and the others, then directly left the Symbol Master Association and quickly headed back to the Lin family.

"Brother Lin Fan, Brother Lin Dong, you're finally back!"

As soon as the two returned to the Lin family, Qing Tan scurried over to them, her face beaming with joy.

Lin Fan laughed, "Why aren't you taking Huo'er and Xiao Yan for a ride?"

Qing Tan pouted, "I was waiting here specifically for you to come back, okay?"

Lin Fan rubbed Qing Tan's head and laughed, "Alright, alright, our Qing Tan is the best. Let's go in first. It's been a while since we've seen Third Uncle and Third Aunt."

"Mhm mhm," Qing Tan nodded in agreement, and then the three of them headed towards Lin Xiao and his wife's residence.

"Third Aunt (Mother), we're back!"

Before long, the three saw Liu Yan and each called out to her.

"Faner, Dong'er, you're back!" Liu Yan's face lit up with joy upon seeing Lin Fan and Lin Dong return.

In Liu Yan's heart, she didn't need Lin Fan and Lin Dong to achieve great things; as long as they were safe and sound, that was enough.

Seeing that only Liu Yan was home, Lin Fan asked, "Third Aunt, why isn't Third Uncle home?"

Although the Lin family had now settled in Yan City, they hadn't established any businesses there yet. For the time being, their main focus was Cultivating at home.

Generally, if there was nothing important, Lin Zhentian and Lin Xiao wouldn't go out.

After all, they weren't like the younger generation, such as Qing Tan, who always wanted to go shopping from time to time.

Hearing Lin Fan mention Lin Xiao, a hint of worry appeared on Liu Yan's face.

Seeing this, Lin Dong immediately asked, "Mother, did something happen to Father?"

Liu Yan shook her head, "It's not as serious as you think. Not long ago, the yang yuan stones our Lin family transported from Qingyang Town to Yan City was stolen by the Ghost Blade Sect."

"Additionally, your Eldest Uncle and Second Uncle were also injured. Today, your Grandfather and your Father took people to the city square to negotiate with the Ghost Blade Sect."

Lin Fan's brows furrowed slightly, "Didn't Master Yan say that the Symbol Master Association intervened, and the Ghost Blade Sect didn't succeed?"

Liu Yan said, "Those fellows are very cunning. After the Symbol Master Association left, when they were almost at the Yan City gate, they launched a second sneak attack. Even your Grandfather suffered some minor injuries."

A cold glint flashed in Lin Fan's eyes, "It seems some people in Yan City still don't know the methods of my Lin family!"

"I'll go to the city square right now. After today, the Ghost Blade Sect will no longer exist in Yan City!"

Liu Yan said with some concern, "I heard that Ghost Yama, the Sect Leader of the Ghost Blade Sect, has a Cultivation that is infinitely close to the Yuan Dan Great Perfection realm. Do you have confidence?"

Before Lin Fan could speak, Lin Dong, who was beside him, laughed, "Mother, don't worry. Brother Lin Fan's current strength is already on par with Master Yan of the Symbol Master Association. That Ghost Yama is no match for Brother Lin Fan at all."

"Let alone Brother Lin Fan, even I, with my full strength, could kill that Ghost Yama who doesn't know what's good for him!"

"Third Aunt, Qing Tan, please wait at home. I'll be back very soon."

Lin Fan said to Liu Yan and Qing Tan, then turned and walked out of the Lin family courtyard.

"Brother Lin Fan, I'm coming too," Lin Dong called out, then quickly followed.

Qing Tan also wanted to catch up but was held back by Liu Yan, "Stay and keep Mother company. We'll wait for your Brother Lin Fan and the others to return together."

"Oh," Qing Tan responded, her spirits somewhat low.

She understood that both Lin Fan and Liu Yan were considering her safety.

This made Qing Tan's desire to become stronger even more intense!

After leaving the Lin family's main gate, Lin Fan and Lin Dong identified their direction and then set off without hesitation.

The two brothers' expressions were both very cold at this moment.

While on their way, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something and said to Lin Dong beside him, "Oh, right, behind the Ghost Blade Sect, there should be the Blood Wolf Gang's backing."

"When we get to the city square later, we'll act according to the situation. If the Blood Wolf Gang insists on interfering, I'll deal with Yue Shan, and Ghost Yama of the Ghost Blade Sect will be up to you."

Lin Dong nodded, saying solemnly, "Brother Lin Fan, don't worry. I'll send Ghost Yama to meet the King of Hell!"

"Haha, what spirit!" Lin Fan couldn't help but laugh aloud upon hearing this.

Immediately, the two brothers, carrying a heavy killing intent, rushed towards the city square.

The city square, one could say, was the place in Yan City where various forces resolved some extreme conflicts.

It was a mixed bag of people, and even the City Lord's Mansion's guard team wouldn't come to maintain order.

When Lin Fan and Lin Dong arrived at the city square, they saw that it was already packed with people.

At the center of the square, in addition to the Lin family and the Ghost Blade Sect, there were also the Blood Wolf Gang and the Ten Thousand Gold Commerce Guild.

The Ten Thousand Gold Commerce Guild stood with the Lin family, while the Blood Wolf Gang was an ally of the Ghost Blade Sect.

After a fierce verbal battle, Xia Wanjin was greatly angered.

Xia Wanjin had wanted to personally teach Ghost Yama a lesson, but he was blocked by Yue Shan, the leader of the Blood Wolf Gang.

Yue Shan even proposed a shameless condition: that the Ghost Blade Sect escort the Lin family's yang yuan stones to Yan City, but they would take a share of the yang yuan stones.

Otherwise, the Lin family and the Ghost Blade Sect would engage in a bloody battle on the spot, and other forces would not be allowed to interfere.

Ghost Yama looked at the grim-faced Lin Zhentian and others, and sneered, "Make your decision quickly; we don't have much time. No matter what you choose, my Ghost Blade Sect will see it through to the end!"

Hearing Ghost Yama's words, Lin Zhentian and Lin Xiao's expressions grew even uglier.

"You truly don't have much time left!"

Just then, a voice filled with murderous intent suddenly came from outside the crowd.

As the voice fell, seven sharp, cold lights, fast as lightning, shot towards Ghost Yama...
