108: Treat your clansmen like ghosts!
“Esteemed Clan Elders, fellow clansmen!”
“Presumably, you all know what happened today. I, Lin Yan, am not a waste. On the contrary, I have obtained a great Opportunity!”
“However, this great Opportunity comes with great danger. Countless powerful individuals have already set their sights on my Lin Family. For the safety of the Lin Family, I have decided to relocate the entire clan!”
It was late into the night.
Inside the Lin Family’s main hall.
After dealing with the powerful enemies, Lin Yan gathered everyone in the clan to announce the relocation of the entire clan.
Lin Zhan, as the Clan Chief of the Lin Family, showed a troubled expression when he learned that his son, Lin Yan, wanted to relocate the entire clan.
“Yaner, our Lin Family has been rooted in Mo Tie City for three hundred years. We are extremely familiar with everything here. Now, we have to relocate, and the vast Foundation of Mo Tie City…”
Before Lin Zhan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Yan.
“Sell it!”
“What?!”
A commotion erupted in the hall. They never expected Lin Yan to tell them to sell all their Foundation in Mo Tie City.
Lin Yan sat calmly on a chair and said indifferently.
“If you are prepared to stay in Mo Tie City, I will not force you, because I will leave Mo Tie City and go to the Donglai Empire, Wulin Empire, Minghuang Empire, and Chuyun Empire to re-establish a Lin Family.”
As soon as these words came out, another uproar was stirred.
To go to four different Empires and establish the Lin Family… just how powerful an enemy had he provoked to do such a thing?
His old father, Lin Zhan, looked at Lin Yan worriedly and asked, “Yaner, have you provoked a powerful individual outside whom you shouldn't have?”
He still clearly remembered the Martial Emperor expert who had appeared in the Lin Family before. Even if the imperial Family of the entire Yun Ling Empire made a move, they probably wouldn't be able to take down that young Martial Emperor.
However, the few mysterious young men beside Lin Yan were able to easily take down that young Martial Emperor.
This also gave him a lot of confidence in Lin Yan.
Lin Yan sat quietly on his seat, his eyes slightly closed, and his voice indifferent, “I did provoke a powerful individual, a Martial God expert!”
Hiss!
In the quiet hall, sounds of gasping could be heard.
They never imagined that Lin Yan could provoke a Martial God-level expert, which made their small hearts somewhat unable to bear it.
Martial God!
That was a Martial God!
A Martial God who had not appeared in the Eight Desolations Continent for tens of thousands of years was actually provoked by their young Clan Chief.
This, Heaven wants to destroy my Lin Family!
Everyone wailed in their hearts, and their eyes were filled with despair. In the eyes of a Martial God, their Lin Family was like ants on the roadside, which could be extinguished at will.
They couldn't even muster the will to resist.
However, Lin Yan's subsequent words gave them a reassurance, calming the towering waves in their hearts.
“It’s just a mere Martial God. I also have backing.”
“Nine!”
“A full nine Martial Gods!”
“And, I only need ten years!”
“In ten years, I will be able to achieve the position of Martial God. By then, our Lin Family will become the strongest Family in the Eight Desolations Continent in one fell swoop!”
One stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Inside the hall, everyone’s breathing gradually became heavy. They did not doubt the truthfulness of Lin Yan's words in the slightest.
The current Lin Yan was no longer the waste he used to be.
Although achieving Martial God in ten years seemed a bit far-fetched, the mysterious young men who appeared before were all young talents.
Some of them, whose aura seemed weak, could suddenly transform into white light and appear, and then disappear as white light.
Such actions, perhaps just like their young Clan Chief, liked to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger. They might even be stronger than the expert who suppressed the Martial Emperor.
“Young Clan Chief, we naturally believe your words, but the matter of establishing the Lin Family in four Empires… I think it needs further discussion.”
“That’s right! Separating to establish the Lin Family in four different places might lead to our Lin Family being too dispersed, which is not conducive to our rooting and survival.”
“Why don’t we just relocate to one place together and re-establish a Lin Family? By then, when the young Clan Chief achieves Martial God, our Lin Family will have no rivals!”
“…”
Everyone’s proposals were rejected by Lin Yan in one breath.
“No! Although I have backing, this is all for me. Only when I face a life-or-death situation will those nine make a move…”
He paused, looked at the clansmen in the hall, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice, “If you trust me, then my Lin Family will break into pieces and set off for various parts of the Eight Desolations Continent.”
“Additionally, this is the Essence Devouring Pill!”
“After consumption, your vitality will be compressed to only three years, but similarly, your strength will reach the Martial King realm, but you will never be able to advance further in your lifetime!”
Lin Yan waved his hand, and his storage ring flashed with a faint light.
A hundred Essence Devouring Pills floated in front of everyone, and their refreshing fragrance permeated the entire hall.
Smelling the fragrance of the Medicinal Pill, everyone couldn't help but swallow their saliva. They wanted to swallow this Medicinal Pill into their stomachs.
But, they forcibly restrained themselves.
Nothing else, the side effects were simply too strong.
Although it could allow them to directly ascend to the Martial King realm, their lifespan would also be shortened to three years.
“This was refined by my Senior Brother. You can distribute it yourselves! Choose the people who want to consume it, and then quickly clear Mo Tie City!”
“Relocate the entire clan!”
Lin Yan’s voice echoed in everyone’s ears, but among the many clansmen of the Lin Family, not a single one was willing to step forward.
Seeing this, Lin Yan was not surprised.
He had long seen through these clansmen.
“You are also people with families, and you also want your descendants to have a day when they can distinguish themselves.”
“I can tell you that as long as I become a Martial God, the Family’s Bloodline will be improved, and the potential of your descendants will be greatly enhanced. Martial Emperor will only be their starting point, and Martial Venerable, Martial Saint, and even Martial God will be the goals they should strive for!”
As soon as these words came out.
Finally, someone gritted their teeth and walked out.
“I have lived long enough. To be a Martial King for three years before I die is not a loss! Even if I die, I will have the face to meet our ancestors in the netherworld!”
“Count me in! It’s just death! To seek welfare for future generations, I am duty-bound!”
“Count me in!”
“I’ll come too!”
The hundred Essence Devouring Pills were quickly distributed. Without exception, those who consumed them were older and had families.
They were willing to choose this path because of Lin Yan's words: if one person achieved Martial God, the entire Family would gain Imperial-level Bloodline.
Soon, a strong wind swept through the entire Lin Family main hall.
The immense aura almost blew off the roof.
The hundred people who consumed the Essence Devouring Pills burst forth with powerful strength, all achieving the position of Martial King.
“Since everyone has succeeded, then integrate the resources of Mo Tie City, and then immediately set off to establish the Lin Family in various parts of the Eight Desolations Continent!”
“Ten years!”
“Ten years later, we will meet in the Imperial Capital of the Yun Ling Empire!”
Leaving these words, Lin Yan took the excited Lin Zhan and left the place.
Taking advantage of the night, the hundred Martial King experts of the Lin Family launched a raid on the other Families in Mo Tie City.
Meanwhile, Lin Yan took Lin Zhan and rode a flying Demonic Beast towards the boundless East Sea.
On the back of the Demonic Beast.
Lin Zhan excitedly said, “Yaner, a hundred Martial Kings, a hundred Martial Kings! In my generation, my Lin Family has produced a hundred Martial Kings.”
Speaking of this, he paused, looked at the expressionless Lin Yan, and asked in confusion, “Yaner, why didn’t you let me eat that Essence Devouring Pill? This way, I would also have the ability to protect you!”
Lin Yan's expression was a bit strange. He took out three Medicinal Pills from his storage ring.
“That Essence Devouring Pill is harmful to the body!”
“Old Man, if you want to eat, eat this! Warm Spirit Pill, three of them, enough for you to Breakthrough to Martial Spirit, and it won’t harm your Foundation!”
Essence Devouring Pill? What Essence Devouring Pill?
Those were the eggs produced by the Ghost Face Butterfly from the Human Emperor Flag, that Demonic Path big shot in his group chat, mixed with other great medicines, and refined.
Specifically used to trick people!
Of course, this was not to trick his Lin Family members.
After all, the side effects were clearly stated.
Three years!
Certain death after three years!
The increase in strength was also real!
However, due to the Ghost Face Butterfly's stealthiness, if anyone were to harm those Lin Family members, there was a high probability they would be parasitized by the Ghost Face Butterfly.
And once parasitized, it could not be detected.
Unless, one performed a soul extraction for inspection.
But, how many people would be idle enough to extract souls for fun?
