#56 - shock
"Where's Xie Qian?"
Lin Yun arrived in one of the rooms, pointing the Youxuan Sword at the other person's forehead, his voice incomparably cold.
"Family… Family Head, he went to Yan City!" Xie family's Tianyuan realm expert was sweating, trembling with fear as he looked at the black-robed man, his voice shaking. "This esteemed Rune Master, I don't know how our Xie family offended you. Our Xie family is willing to make amends."
"What did he go to Yan City for?" Lin Yun continued to ask, the Youxuan Sword getting closer, piercing the other party's skin.
Under the pressure of spiritual power and the threat of death, the other party's psychological defenses directly collapsed.
"The Family Head was entrusted by Lei Bao to go to Yan City to invite a master."
"咻!"
Lin Yun didn't show any mercy, ending the other party's fear.
The Lei and Xie families were already destined to be enemies.
Lei Bao and Xie Qian had been secretly planning to destroy the Lin family.
One cannot be benevolent to enemies.
After solving the two, Lin Yun received two more bottles of medicinal pills as a reward.
He also went to Xie Qian's room and obtained the Xie family's cultivation technique and fourth-grade martial skill.
The Xie family's cultivation technique was ordinary, only able to open up six meridians.
The fourth-grade martial skill was the Rippling Wave Sword Technique.
That night, Lin Yun obtained a total of two cultivation techniques and three fourth-grade martial skills.
For him, who already possessed the top-tier cultivation technique, Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, the allure of cultivation techniques wasn't great.
However, martial skills were worth considering.
He had already cultivated Pure Yang Finger to perfection, and the Qimen Seal, because it was a fifth-grade martial skill, was slower, but it was also nearing completion.
Fifth-grade martial skills were hard to find.
Lin Yun felt that he could consider cultivating another fourth-grade martial skill.
Having a variety of martial skills also made cultivation less monotonous.
Without much thought, Lin Yun directly chose the movement martial skill, Mysterious Lightning Step.
Lin Yun's martial arts foundation was very solid, and he also had intermediate movement talent, plus his comprehension attribute had also improved a lot.
After just one look, he understood it.
[Task: Practice Mysterious Lightning Step 1 time. Reward: Mysterious Lightning Step proficiency Entry +1.]
Establishing the task, Lin Yun began to practice Mysterious Lightning Step.
He cultivated while hurrying back to Tiemu Village.
When tired, he would eat Qi and Blood Pills.
The next morning!
Lin Yun returned to Tiemu Village.
After cultivating all the way, Mysterious Lightning Step had successfully reached Minor Accomplishment.
Entering the village, Lin Yun first released Hu Ying to reunite with the Fire Flame and Fierce Flame Three Tigers.
Then, he found Lin Zhentian!
He asked him to summon the clan's high-level members above the Tianyuan realm for a meeting.
It's worth mentioning that after returning from Yan City, Lin Dong also successfully broke through to the Tianyuan realm, becoming the Lin family's sixth Tianyuan realm expert.
"Grandpa, uncles, and Lin Dong, let me show you some treasures!"
Once everyone arrived, Lin Yun took out five books from his Qiankun bag.
"Thunder Origin Skill!"
"Lightning Flash!"
"Rippling Wave Sword Technique!"
……
"Aren't these the Lei and Xie families' unique skills?"
"You kid, didn't you loot the Lei and Xie families?"
Seeing the book titles, the five people stared at Lin Yun in shock.
"I went to Qingyang Town and conveniently killed Lei Bao and the Xie family's two Tianyuan realm experts, so I took their families' martial skills back. It's a pity Xie Qian wasn't there," Lin Yun said in a calm tone, even with a hint of regret.
"What? You killed Lei Bao?!"
"You did such a big thing these past few days!"
"What's your strength now?"
Lin Zhentian and the other four looked at Lin Yun with extremely shocked expressions.
Lei Bao was their Lin family's number one enemy. The existence of the Lei and Xie families had always been a major concern.
The reason why the Lin family gave up their residence in Qingyang Town and moved to Tiemu Village was because they were worried about being targeted by the Lei and Xie families and had to concentrate together.
Now, Lin Yun casually told them that the crisis was resolved!
What the hell? They weren't prepared at all.
"It wasn't a few days, I just killed them last night. I came back after killing them," Lin Yun organized his words and continued, "Now the Lei and Xie families are without leaders. I came back overnight to discuss with you whether we should take this opportunity to occupy the two families' industries and become the number one family in Qingyang Town."
"What a great opportunity, of course we have to occupy them!" Lin Mang took the lead, his eyes flashing with fiery greed.
Lin Ken was also very excited, "Father, Yun'er cleared the obstacles for our Lin family. From now on, our Lin family will be the only dominant force in Qingyang Town."
"Yun'er and the other three have become disciples of Master Yan, and our Lin family also has a background in Yan City. After taking Qingyang Town, we can develop towards Yan City without any worries," Lin Xiao said from the side, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"Xie Qian hasn't been resolved yet. Where is he?" Lin Dong added the question, being cautious even in times of peace.
Lin Yun said, "I forced an answer from the Xie family's Tianyuan realm expert. He said Xie Qian went to Yan City, arranged by Lei Bao, to invite a master."
Lin Zhentian and the other four immediately calmed down, their brows furrowing.
"Don't worry about Xie Qian, leave him to me. As for the master he invited, he must be used to deal with our Lin family, and with our Lin family's strength, the master invited will at most be in the Yuandan realm."
"Any higher, the Lei and Xie families can't afford it."
Lin Yun analyzed confidently, looking very sure.
"Yun'er, can you deal with Yuandan realm experts?" Lin Zhentian's pupils widened, looking at him in surprise.
"Have you broken through to the Yuandan realm? How is that possible?"
"How long has it been since you broke through to the Tianyuan realm middle stage?"
Lin Xiao and the other four also found it hard to believe, after all, there was still a realm in between.
"I haven't broken through to the Yuandan realm." Lin Yun smiled helplessly.
How could it be so fast? It had only been less than a month since he broke through to the Tianyuan realm middle stage.
The five of them breathed a sigh of relief. If he had broken through, then he would be too monstrous, completely beyond their understanding.
However, Lin Yun changed the subject,
"However, I have become a One-Imprint Rune Master."
"What? A One-Imprint Rune Master?"
"A One-Imprint Rune Master?!"
"Didn't you just become Master Yan's disciple? You became a Rune Master so quickly. Is Rune Master cultivation very simple?"
"How could it be so simple? If it was really that easy, Rune Masters would be so rare, they would have been everywhere long ago."
"Dong'er also cultivated, did Dong'er become one?"
"I haven't yet. I just cultivated the Divine Movement Chapter to the first level. I need to cultivate all three levels before I can open up the Niwan Palace, and I also need to have the Imprint Condensation Method to condense my natal rune imprint and become a Rune Master. However, the master hasn't taught us the Imprint Condensation Method yet!"
"It seems that Yun'er is gifted with extraordinary talent, a genius Rune Master, otherwise he wouldn't have been spotted by Master Yan at a glance."
"Heaven bless my Lin family, to have such a genius as Yun'er."
Lin Zhentian and the other five were shocked beyond words.
Lin Yun didn't waste any time, releasing the spiritual power pressure of a One-Imprint Rune Master, letting Lin Zhentian and the other five feel the pressure from a strong person.
"Yun'er, enough, quickly put away your spiritual power." Lin Zhentian's face was stiff, his eyes still excited.
They no longer had any doubts about Lin Yun's words.
They immediately arranged for Lin Xiao, Lin Ken, and Lin Mang to go to Qingyang Town to take over the Lei and Xie families' territories.
"Lin Yun, where did you get the Imprint Condensation Method from?" Lin Dong asked curiously.
Lin Yun smiled, "Guess!"
