"The Lin Family’s secret manual is called the Ten Directions Calculation."
"Legend has it that this manual can greatly advance a Martial Cultivator’s Cultivation, and even allow them to predict fortune and misfortune."
Lev revealed the name of the Lin Family’s secret manual: the Ten Directions Calculation.
Zhan Yang and the others all frowned. They had clearly never heard of the Ten Directions Calculation.
But when Jiang Chen heard the name, a jolt went through his body.
’The Ten Directions Calculation... Why do I feel like I’ve heard that name somewhere before?’
But as he searched his memories, he couldn’t find any recollection of it.
It surprised him. The feeling was both familiar and foreign—very strange indeed.
He suddenly found himself developing a keen interest in this so-called Ten Directions Calculation.
Lev continued, "The Lin Family’s Ten Directions Calculation manual was left behind by the first Patriarch. It’s been nearly a thousand years now, and the manual has been hidden all this time within the Lin Family Ancestral Tomb, the Boluo Tomb."
"Although several generations of Lin Family Patriarchs have wanted to practice its Cultivation, they never had the fateful opportunity and were unable to obtain the Ten Directions Calculation."
"That Lin Ying must have heard about it from somewhere, which is why he started scheming for it."
Jiang Chen and the others fell silent.
It was clear that even members of the Lin Family couldn’t necessarily practice the Cultivation of the Ten Directions Calculation.
This showed that there was truly something extraordinary about the secret manual.
Jiang Chen grew even more curious.
The desire to obtain the Ten Directions Calculation began to sprout in his mind.
But it was, after all, the Lin Family’s secret manual.
Seeing that Jiang Chen and the others were unfamiliar with it, Lev spoke again. "We already told Lin Ying about the secret manual. He’s been alerted now."
"If I’m not mistaken, he will definitely set out tonight for the Lin Family Ancestral Tomb, the Boluo Tomb, to search for the Ten Directions Calculation."
As he spoke, Lev looked at Jiang Chen and the others.
His tone was solemn. "I know that our Lin Family’s Ten Directions Calculation is an absolutely heaven-defying Cultivation Technique. Our ancestor, by practicing it, possessed vast Divine Techniques and a heaven-defying Cultivation. It’s just a shame his fate was poor, and he ultimately perished."
"In the current situation, it’s impossible for us to get the Ten Directions Calculation."
"If you wish to obtain it, you can also try your luck at the Lin Family Ancestral Tomb."
"After all, we don’t want Lin Ying to get the manual. That ungrateful bastard."
Speaking of Lin Ying, Lev was clearly filled with immense hatred.
Lin Yuan said angrily, "I plan to announce the existence of the Lin Family’s secret manual to the public! Let more people fight over it. I won’t give that Lin Ying the slightest chance!"
Lin Ying was most certainly rushing to the Boluo Tomb overnight.
Lin Yuan hated Lin Ying to the bone. The best way to stop him from getting the manual was to let everyone know about it, so everyone would go and fight for it.
When that happened, Lin Ying might not be able to get his hands on the manual.
Zhan Yang and the others exchanged glances.
In the end, they all shook their heads.
"Forget it. No matter how powerful the secret manual is, it’s not something we can meddle with."
"Go ahead and publicize it. Lin Ying won’t be able to get the manual so easily then."
"Even if he gets it, he won’t be able to keep it."
Zhan Yang also had no interest in the Lin Family’s secret manual.
He was self-aware and knew what he was capable of obtaining and what he wasn’t.
Even if they got the manual, if its existence was made public, they would inevitably become prey for others.
With their strength, it would be difficult to hold onto the secret manual.
That very night, Zhan Yang and his group released the news.
Almost overnight, the Gambling City was in an uproar.
The existence of the Lin Family’s secret manual, the Ten Directions Calculation, became public knowledge.
"Did you hear? The Lin Family has a secret manual called the Ten Directions Calculation. After cultivating it, you can become a peerless expert!"
"It’s more than that! I heard you can cultivate directly to the level of a Martial Emperor and even ascend to the Upper Realm!"
"Is that for real? A minor family like the Lin Family from little Guyue City has a manual like that?"
"Everyone knows about it now. True or not, we have to go try our luck."
After dawn, the Gambling City was swept by a storm of activity.
As for Lin Yuan and Lev, they were temporarily hiding out in a restaurant.
Although Jiang Chen was curious about the Ten Directions Calculation, he had no intention of getting involved.
Meanwhile, Lin Yuan and Lev learned that Jiang Chen was just about to buy the Lin Family Manor.
Lin Yuan said anxiously, "Brother Jiang Chen, that manor is rightfully ours, the Lin Family’s."
"Now that Lin Ying has left the manor, he must have taken all the experts with him. He’s never coming back."
"You don’t need to buy the manor. If you want to live there, just move in."
It was true. With Lin Ying gone, the manor belonged to Lin Yuan.
Jiang Chen had been planning to buy it, and now he wouldn’t have to spend a cent.
After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Chen nodded. "Since the manor belongs to your Lin Family, I won’t buy it."
"However, Lin Ying has surely left someone behind as a contingency. Let’s go check on the situation at the manor."
Immediately, they disguised Lin Yuan and Lev, and the group headed straight for the Lin Family Manor once more.
"Is Mr. Lin here?"
Although they already knew Lin Ying was likely gone, Jiang Chen and the others didn’t let their guard down.
They entered the manor and looked for its master.
After a long while, a man who looked like a butler came hurrying out.
"Are you Young Master Jiang?"
Upon seeing them, the man seemed to guess that Jiang Chen’s group had come to buy the manor.
"That’s me."
"We discussed it with Mr. Lin. I’m here to buy your manor. Is Mr. Lin available?" he asked.
The man immediately gave an apologetic smile.
"I’m very sorry, but our Manor Master is not here at the moment. As for the manor’s affairs, they’ve been left in my care. I can make the decision regarding the transaction."
Just as they expected, after Jiang Chen and the others looked around, they found that only this butler remained in the manor.
Lin Yuan immediately ripped the mask from his face and snapped, "Liu Sheng, do you recognize me?"
The butler Lin Ying had left behind was named Liu Sheng.
Lin Yuan recognized him and was now glaring at Liu Sheng with fury.
When Liu Sheng saw Lin Yuan, he gasped as if he had seen a ghost.
"You..."
"You’re the Young Master..."
At the same time, Lev also removed his mask, revealing his true face.
Liu Sheng trembled violently, even more terrified.
He stumbled backward again and again.
He pointed a trembling finger at Lev in terror. "You’re... the Lin Family’s old butler, Lev..."
"You actually came back!"
He recognized both Lin Yuan and Lev.
Last night, Lev and Lin Yuan had been abducted, and Lin Ying had left in the middle of the night.
He never expected Lin Yuan and Lev to suddenly appear here.
He knew this was big trouble.
However, after his initial shock, Liu Sheng suddenly let out a cold laugh and looked at Jiang Chen and the others.
"Well, well. So you’re the ones who abducted Lin Yuan and Lev."
"Since you’ve come here today, I’ll take care of you on behalf of the Manor Master."
He sneered.
The aura of a Martial Master Ninth Heaven’s Cultivation radiated from his body.
In his eyes, the strongest among Jiang Chen’s group was Lev, who was only a Martial Master Seventh Heaven. Jiang Chen himself was merely at the Martial Master Sixth Heaven.
The others were even less of a threat.
Thus, with his courage bolstered by malice, he decided to kill Jiang Chen and his group.
"Heh, this manor has always been the Lin Family’s property."
"And you, a mere lapdog, dare to speak so arrogantly?"
Jiang Chen stepped forward, casting a cold glance at Liu Sheng.
With a wave of his hand, a flash of purple light appeared, and the Purple-Haired Demon Wolf materialized before him.
