C1 Relieved
Coleman City, Lin Family.
"Linley, at the Dou Zhe level."
The elder in charge of testing the younger generation of the clan loudly announced the results of the test. His voice carried a trace of regret and regret.
Linley, a former genius of the Lin family. When he was born, a phenomenon appeared in the sky.
Since he was born a Dou Wang, his future prospects would be limitless. Dou Zong, Dou Zun and even Dou Sheng, and even the legendary Dou Di were not impossible.
If the clan had a Dou Sheng and a Dou Zun, even if it was just a Dou Zong, the clan would be able to rise to the top and would no longer be limited to just a small Coleman City.
In order to allow him to grow as fast as possible and become a pillar of the family, the Lin Family had spent half of their family's assets to purchase a large amount of land treasures to nurture him.
It is a pity that the heavens are jealous of talented individuals. After absorbing a large amount of heavenly treasures, one's strength fell instead of rising. In a short span of three years, one's strength dropped from a Dou Wang to a Dou Shi.
The Lin Clan, seeing this situation, was afraid that their future pillar would fall. They once more spent more than half of their wealth to buy a large amount of treasures for Linley.
The more treasures he absorbed, the faster Linley's power dropped. By the time the members of the Lin family noticed that something was off and stopped Linley's absorption of the treasures, nothing could be salvaged.
In a short span of half a year, Linley, who had been born three years and six months ago, had dropped to the 'Battlemaster' level of the Paragon Continent.
If good news didn't leave the door, then the news spread far and wide. The Lin Family had become a household joke in the city, and because of this, the Lin Family in the city, which no one dared to look down on, became a topic of conversation among the citizens of the city.
Linley. To the Lin Family, this person was someone they loved and hated. He was just like a chicken's ribs, a tasteless eater, a waste of abandonment. What was hateful was that the entire Lin Family had been mocked and ridiculed in Coleman City; what was also hateful was that after absorbing such a large amount of heavenly materials, even the highest quality trash could ignore the bottleneck of their strength and soar to the heavens, not to mention a genius born with such a phenomenon in the world. Who knows when he might suddenly accumulate enough to become a supreme expert and ruthlessly slap those people and families in the face.
Just like this, the Lin Clan was like a gambler who sold off his wife and children in a gambling house and used all of their assets to gamble. They stared at the dealer, hoping for the final outcome.
One day. Two days. One month. Two months. One year. Two years …
Little by little, time passed. Linley's power was still the same as it had been when he was three years and six months old. There wasn't the slightest change. Looking at this scene, the Lin Family felt like they were a dying man on the verge of death, watching as the grim reaper slowly extracted their souls. Anger, rage, disappointment, and in the end, their hearts were all like stagnant water as the Lin Family slowly abandoned their hope for Linley and quietly hid this part of their past into the dark past, no longer looking back.
To this day, the sixteen year old Linley received countless praises, consolations, cold looks, and scorn …
Having experienced the vicissitudes of life and seen the warmth and coldness of human relations, he was not young, yet had a head full of white hair and beard. He did not have the vigor of the morning sun, but he was as calm as an ancient well, growing up into an aloof and aloof youth in everyone's eyes.
Today was the day that the younger generation of the Lin Family held their coming-of-age ceremony. No matter how many matters they had in their hands, what tasks they were undertaking, or how far away they were from the family, all of them would be put aside and return to the Lin Family that had once given birth to them, raised them, and loved them. This was not only their home, but also their roots, and was the pride in their hearts, the backbone of their spirit, and the source of their faith.
Even though the Lin Family was still the laughingstock in other people's eyes, they still raised their heads, lifted their chests and straightened their backs, telling others that they were members of the Lin Family and not lowering their heads, with their chests in their chests and their backs bent, looking embarrassed and embarrassed.
The members of the Lin Clan were upright and upright, fearless of any mockery and ridicule. They continuously used their actions to establish the pride of the Lin Clan and wash away the shame of the Lin Clan. Because of this, even if the Lin Family had spent most of their assets and became a laughingstock for everyone in the city, they had not shaken the status of one of the top families in the city. No other family would dare to look down on the Lin Family, which had been rooted in the city for less than a hundred years.
Every three years, the Lin Clan would conduct an adult ceremony for the younger generation of the clan — also known as the coming of age ceremony. All youngsters who had yet to undergo the coming of age ceremony were required to attend. All the participants who were about sixteen years of age or so would receive gifts and blessings from the family. After that, they would leave the family and head to various places in the Prestigious Continent to undergo their own three years of adult training. They would only be able to return to the family during the next Coming of Age Ceremony.
All the juniors who had completed the adult training could receive various jobs assigned by their families to contribute to their prosperity. Of course, they could also leave their families, form branch families, and open up a new branch family. They could also find their own jobs and then write down their own work experience into a book to expand their family's books and knowledge.
"Linley, you can go to the clan treasury now to retrieve a treasure that suits you." Remember, only treasures that are suitable for you are the best treasures. Don't try to be the strongest, and power that you cannot control will only be a disaster to you. "
The old man responsible for testing the strength of the younger generation of the clan, upon seeing this former genius and current laughingstock, said these words with sincerity and sincerity.
Linley nodded expressionlessly, then reached out to take the emblem that the old man had given to open the treasury. He turned and looked around at his fellow clansmen, feeling pity, regret, scorn, and disgust from the members of the Lin Clan … His gaze, gave him this life and soul, gave him warmth, gave him pride and faith … The Lin Family who had given him everything, as well as all the members of the Lin Family who had returned from thousands of miles away, were going to do everything they could for and to contribute to the Lin Family, deeply etched in his mind, etched into his memories, etched into his soul, etched into his own soul.
Linley gently closed his eyes, then heavily bent down his knee, which had remained unbent for 16 years. He moved forward, backwards, left, right … Looking in every direction, he kowtowed deeply to every member of the Lin Clan.
Kneel down, kowtow; Kneel down, kowtow; Kneel down, kowtow; Kneel down, kowtow … The entire arena was completely silent, so much so that one could hear a pin drop. All of the members of the Lin clan stared silently at Linley as he knelt down and kowtowed over and over again.
"Enough, Brother Ley!" Enough, it's really enough! "
A voice filled with tears came from behind Linley. As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of slender hands, carrying an unmatched amount of force, tightly hugged Linley from behind, forcefully pulling Linley, who was preparing to once more continue kowtowing.
Linley lowered his head to look at his hands, which were wrapped around his waist. He was silent. He knew who the owners of those slender hands were. He didn't need to turn his head to know which hands they belonged to. It was these slender hands that gave him warmth when he was cold; it was those slender hands that gave him a hug when he was sick; it was those slender hands that gave him a hug when he was cold … Even if he were to turn into ashes and lose his soul, he wouldn't be able to forget those two slender hands.
"Xin Er …"
Linley's mouth opened, as though he were going to speak about all sorts of thoughts, but he didn't know what words to say. In the end, all sorts of words formed in his throat, transforming into these two words, floating out from his lips.
"Forget it, let's disperse!" "Sigh!"
A sigh rang out in front of Linley, echoing through the air, so loud that everyone present could hear it.
Linley didn't know, and he didn't want to know either. All he could do was raise his head and stare blankly at the clan leader, who had appeared in front of him at some point, at a loss.
The Patriarch suddenly stretched out his callused hands, spreading them open as he slowly walked towards Linley.
Linley couldn't help but blink at the clan leader's sudden action. As soon as his eyes opened, a large embrace embraced him and Lin Xin, who was behind him.
"You don't owe us! You don't owe us! "You don't owe us!"
The Patriarch embraced Linley and Lin Xin, telling them the story over and over in Linley's ear.
Linley's eyes were moist. The grievances and grievances of so many years had now turned into tears. They began to flow down his face, on his chin, and then fall to the ground in mid-air. Finally, they broke upon Lin Xin's trembling hands.
Just like this, Linley held the clan leader in one hand and Lin Xin's trembling hands in the other, silently crying.
The Supreme Gate.
"A Dou Di has already disappeared for a thousand years on the continent. There are countless geniuses born in a thousand years on the continent, but there is still no one who can break through the Dou Sheng Realm and reach the Dou Di Supreme Realm.
Now, the method to break through to the Warrior Sage Realm is in our hands. As long as we can take back the soul of the old Dou Di left behind by our sect and collect all the soul of these ancient Dou Emperors, we can open the sect's treasure. From now on, the Dou Di Realm is as easy as pie for us.
Money, power, beauty … "All that we think about, all that we need, all that we have access to, is inexhaustible."
"Now that we have all the information of the Thunder Martial Empire's soul battle, our journey will be easier to carry out."
"The first target... "From this-let's start with Coleman City!"
"Demon Ancient, are you willing to give such glory to him?"
