Chapter 17 — You Can’t Shield Him Just Because Lin Yan Is Your Stepson!
“You, what did you say?” Upon hearing Li Junfeng’s words, Lin Yan’s face turned green. Veins bulged on his forehead. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
“Junior Brother Lin Yan, did I say something wrong? Oh, don’t be modest! The Holy Son is now at the Fifth stage of the Golden Core realm. As the only direct disciple of the Sect Master, he will definitely take control of our Xuantian Sect in the future! As long as you say a word, the elders responsible for promoting core disciples will definitely give you this face! If Lin Junior Brother feels that ten thousand spiritual stones are too few, I can add more!”
“You’re courting death!” Lin Yan erupted in anger.
His true qi surged, and he directly slapped towards Li Junfeng.
“Ah, Lin Junior Brother, what are you doing?”
Lin Junfeng’s cultivation was at the Ninth stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, so he easily taking Lin Yan’s blow.
His eyes were filled with confusion.
Lin Yan had accepted his ten thousand spiritual stones, and he had just made a small request. Why did Lin Yan suddenly attack him?
“I’ll kill you!” Lin Yan gripped the giant sword on his back and swung it at Li Junfeng. A horizontal sword light slashed through the air.
Li Junfeng barely dodged.
In his heart, he thought: Indeed, he is the Holy Son’s stepson. Junior Brother Lin, at the Fourth stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, can actually erupt with such a powerful attack. The sword strike just now would have been difficult for even someone at the Seventh stage of Foundation Establishment to unleash!
“Lin Junior Brother, wait, let’s talk!” Li Junfeng hurriedly said.
However, Lin Yan’s anger had been completely ignited. For more than half a year, he had been forcibly suppressing it. Every time he thought of how Yang Chen, that bastard, had actually married his mother, he was consumed with anger.
During this half year, he had accumulated countless grievances.
Today, Li Junfeng’s words ignited it all with a single sentence about you being recognized as the Holy Son’s stepson. He had to vent it out.
His way of venting was to kill Li Junfeng!
Lin Yan wielded his giant sword with all his might, striking continuously.
He often ventured outside, and had killed and plundered many times.
His attacks were extremely fierce.
Sword lights slashed through the air.
Although Li Junfeng had the cultivation of the Ninth stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, he knew that the Holy Son had once said that whoever dealt with Lin Yan would have to face him. So, he dared not harm Lin Yan and could only keep evading.
At this moment.
On the Holy Son Peak.
Many people felt the battle at the foot of the mountain.
“How dare you, the Holy Son Peak is one of the nine main peaks of the sect, and violence is strictly prohibited! Moreover, today is the Holy Son’s daughter’s full moon banquet, a day of great joy for our Xuantian Sect! Who is so bold?” An elder spoke up.
At this moment, Li Junfeng, who was being chased by Lin Yan, began to fly towards the Holy Son Peak.
Lin Yan, with bloodshot eyes, would not stop until he killed Li Junfeng. Regardless of anything else, he chased after him with his sword.
The two flew to the Holy Son Peak, one after the other.
“How dare you! You even dare to come towards the Holy Son Peak!
“Yong’er, go and capture these two!”
An elder in the Nascent realm said to the disciple beside him.
“Yes, Master!”
A young man in a brocade robe immediately took action.
Two golden chains of light appeared in the sky, entwining and capturing Li Junfeng and Lin Yan who were chasing each other. When they landed on the ground, everyone realized that one of them was Lin Yan.
“You two, how dare you fight on the Holy Son Peak, do you know what crime that is?”
The elder in the Nascent Soul realm said sternly.
Lin Yan also calmed down at this moment. He had only been focused on chasing Li Junfeng, forgetting that this was the Holy Son Peak.
He looked up and happened to see his mother, Lin Xilan.
She was standing next to Yang Chen, that scoundrel, with delicate makeup, looking at him nervously. She was still holding a child in her arms, and a little boy was standing beside her unsteadily.
Humph!
Lin Yan turned his head away, refusing to look at her.
On the side, Li Junfeng, seeing the elder getting angry, also remembered that fighting on the Holy Son Peak was a serious crime. He hurriedly said: “Elder, disciple didn’t initiate the fight on the Holy Son Peak! The disciple was ordered by the Master to inform the Holy Son that the Sect Master speculated that there is a treasure in the Red Cloud Mountain Range fifty thousand miles to the southeast. He asked the Holy Son to lead a team to investigate!
“However, when the disciple met Junior Brother Lin Yan at the foot of the mountain, he just wanted to say hello to him. Who knew that he would say that he is the Holy Son’s stepson and that when the Holy Son inherits the position of the Sect Master, he will be the new Holy Son, asking the disciple to show respect to him in advance!
“The disciple thought it was fine, so he gave him ten thousand spiritual stones! But Junior Brother Lin Yan said it was too little and asked me to get another ten thousand! The disciple is just an ordinary inner sect disciple, where can I get more! Junior Brother Lin Yan got angry and then chased me with a sword! The disciple had no choice but to escape all the way to the Holy Son Peak. Please, Holy Son and elders, help me!” Li Junfeng said with tears and snot.
Suddenly, many people present looked at Lin Yan with indignation. Many of them had participated in the last wedding and didn’t have a good impression of Lin Yan back then.
At that time, this guy had insulted the Holy Son. Now, he had gone so far as to forcibly extort spiritual stones from fellow disciples of the same sect.
Shameful!
Odious!
Immediately, someone stood up indignantly and said: “Your Highness, although Lin Yan is your stepson, his behavior is too despicable. I think you should punish him properly to serve as a warning!”
“Yes, Your Highness, Lin Yan not only disregards his elders, but also openly extorts spiritual stones from fellow disciples, which is outrageous!”
“Yes, Your Highness, this behavior is too bad. If not dealt with, it may chill the hearts of the sect’s disciples!”
“As you are the Holy Son, the leader of the younger generation of the sect, you cannot favor and shield him just because Lin Yan is your stepson!”
