Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 2622: Chapter 2601: Arranging Xinyue

Chapter 2601: Settling Xinyue

In the midst of everyone’s exclamations, Luan Zhengyan was utterly despondent! He never expected the Ancestor to be so ruthless!

"My son!" Luan Zhengyan couldn’t hold back any longer and rushed forward to embrace his son. At this moment, Luan Shaochen lay paralyzed in a pool of blood, veins bulging, surrounded by a torrent of blood. How much he regretted not properly disciplining his son, which led to today’s outcome. If his son could never cultivate again, how was he any different from a cripple? Luan Shaochen was his only hope.

Luan Zhengtang was also dumbfounded. He had considered what the Ancestor’s punishment might be like, but directly severing the tendons of his limbs was undoubtedly too shocking for them. However, the Ancestor’s actions must have their reasons. After all, the Ancestor must have weighed the pros and cons thoroughly before acting. He looked towards the Ancestor, uncertain of how to clean up the aftermath.

"Are you satisfied with this explanation, my friend?" Luan Yuanshan gritted his teeth, a flash of anger appearing on his wrinkled face. He knew that by doing this, those around him would certainly gossip about the Luan Family, but he had no choice. If he didn’t give Lin Feng a satisfactory explanation, this young man wouldn’t easily let it go. The fact that he confronted the Luan Family today meant he intended to blow the matter up. He only wanted to do his utmost to protect the family, which was his primary consideration.

Lin Feng nodded, looking at the barely-breathing Luan Shaochen lying on the ground. He knew when to stop, and making the Luan Family lose face was the first step, having already achieved his goal. So, he said to Ma Biaohu, "Let’s go."

Ma Biaohu hoisted up the old man’s corpse, Lin Feng led Xinyue, and the group slowly faded from the onlookers’ sight...

"They’re gone, disperse, disperse!"

"The Luan Family has certainly lost face today, that young man is truly capable!"

"That’s karma for bullying people in Lin City!"

...

The onlookers, seeing Lin Feng walk away, began to disperse while gossiping. They were particularly thankful that someone had finally given the Luan Family a hard blow. By tomorrow, the entire Lin City would have spread this news. Let’s see if the Luan Family dares to be so arrogant again!

At this moment, Luan Zhengtang felt a mix of emotions in his heart and timidly asked, "Ancestor, why did you do this?"

"I can’t be sure I can kill him!" Luan Yuanshan looked at Luan Zhengtang, his gaze filled with murderous intent, and said gravely. He truly couldn’t gauge Lin Feng’s background. This young man could easily defeat Luan Zhengtang and the four Great Elders. He had no idea what his chances would be if they clashed, so he couldn’t act recklessly. If they truly lost, then the Luan Family would have to vanish from Lin City forever. He didn’t dare to gamble that much.

"What?"

"Even the Ancestor can’t be sure he can kill him?"

"Where exactly is this kid from?"

...

Several elders, along with Luan Zhengtang, were shocked at these words. They were aware of the Ancestor’s strength, yet even the Ancestor couldn’t confirm whether he could defeat him. They couldn’t estimate the power of this young man. Now, they only hoped this matter would end here. If the Luan Family had indeed offended such a strong individual and other families joined forces with him, the Luan Family would face even more enemies in the future. Just thinking about it sent shivers down their spines.

"Investigate him for me, and also, restrain the people below. Don’t let similar incidents happen again." Luan Yuanshan looked at everyone, especially at Luan Zhengyan, who was kneeling on the ground holding his son. He clearly understood Luan Shaochen’s temperament; if Luan Shaochen weren’t crippled, he would undoubtedly continue to cause trouble, possibly overreaching and seeking revenge on Lin Feng. He shook his head and sighed.

"Yes." Luan Zhengtang immediately agreed, not daring to further anger the Ancestor. He knew he needed to reorganize the family properly, for if things happened again, it might be him lying on the ground next. This incident clearly made him understand that there are always those stronger and more powerful. While the Luan Family might be formidable in Lin City, in the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm, many existed whom they could not afford to provoke.

Hearing this, Luan Yuanshan’s figure flickered and vanished from their sight.

"Quickly, carry the young master inside." As soon as the Ancestor left, Luan Zhengtang immediately ordered. If they treated Luan Shaochen quickly, there was still time to reattach the severed tendons. If too much time passed before healing, the consequences would be uncertain.

The subordinates, upon hearing the order, immediately lifted Luan Shaochen and rushed indoors, with the others also returning to the courtyard.

..........

"Have you heard? The second young master of the Luan Family has been crippled!"

"No, no, wasn’t he killed by his own Ancestor?"

"A young man seeking revenge for a grandparent and grandchild, going to cause trouble for the Luan Family, it’s truly fascinating!"

...

The streets and alleys of Lin City were abuzz with various versions of the rumors about this incident, which immediately became a must-discuss topic in everyone’s idle chat. The whole of Lin City was curious about who this mysterious young person could be, someone capable of getting the Ancestor of the Luan Family to show up with just one move—how remarkable. Now, everyone regarded Lin Feng as a hero who stood up for justice.

Lin Feng, accompanied by Ma Biaohu and others, left the city and headed to a deserted seaside outside the city, intending to bury Xinyue’s grandfather. Such a young child had lost her only relative; both Ma Biaohu and Lin Feng felt heartache when they looked at Xinyue.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, won’t you come back?" Xinyue cried as she clung to the old man’s body, her frail body trembling. She thought of how she had been with her grandfather since childhood, with her parents gone, her grandfather was her only family. Now that her grandfather was gone, she didn’t know how she would live in the future. Thinking of this, she cried even harder.

"Alas..." Ma Biaohu sighed, wanting to lift Xinyue from the cold ground but was stopped by Lin Feng.

"Let her cry," Lin Feng said softly, his eyes gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

After a long while, Xinyue stopped crying, stood up, and returned to Lin Feng’s side. In front of them lay the endless sea, and burying her grandfather here, in such beautiful scenery, would allow him to rest in peace.

Lin Feng looked at Ma Biaohu, signaling him to bury the old man. Ma Biaohu walked to the edge of the cliff, picked up a huge stone, and drew the Seven Stars Thunderclap. Sparks flew, and amidst the flashes of knives and swords, a square stele was carved out. He then buried the old man in the soil, directly using his finger to carve the old man’s name on the back of the stone, setting the tombstone upright.

"Grandfather, rest in peace," Xinyue knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed a few times. Lin Feng and Ma Biaohu also came forward to pay their respects before the three returned to the city.

Considering there were still many things to do, with the Holy Pill Pavilion not yet established and no suitable location found, and many unknown dangers ahead, keeping Xinyue by their side was truly inconvenient. After some thought, Lin Feng decided to entrust Xinyue to Elder Xue at the auction house for care, and the group hurriedly headed there.

......

In the auction house, Xue Fan saw Lin Feng coming in from a distance and warmly greeted him.

"Young Friend Lin, we meet again!" Xue Fan shook hands warmly with Lin Feng, unaware of the purpose of Lin Feng’s visit, but he was more than willing to help if Lin Feng needed anything.

"Elder Xue, I have a request. I hope you can assist me," Lin Feng said straightforwardly. Currently, in Lin City, he could only trust Xue Fan, and he believed that Elder Xue would definitely take good care of Xinyue.

Xue Fan hoped Lin Feng would ask for his help; otherwise, there would be no reason for him to ask Lin Feng to help with alchemy. He then said, "Please go ahead."

"I saved this child and would like to trouble you to look after her for a while. Once I finish my tasks, I’ll come back for her," Lin Feng said candidly, anticipating Elder Xue’s agreement, so he didn’t phrase it as a question.

Newly awakened in Ma Biaohu’s arms, Xinyue just opened her eyes, worn out from crying, glancing at Lin Feng and Xue Fan. At this moment, Xue Fan noticed the little girl and suddenly recalled the rumors he had heard today. He widened his eyes and asked Lin Feng, "Young Friend Lin, you’re not the one opposing the Luan Family, are you?"

Lin Feng smiled, not concealing anything, as there was nothing he couldn’t acknowledge with Xue Fan. "Yes," he replied.

Xue Fan was astonished by Lin Feng’s straightforward admission. The legend of Lin Feng had already spread throughout Lin City. The courage to challenge the Luan Family alone was something Xue Fan found fearful, but as he reconsidered, Lin Feng’s achievements and cultivation at such a young age were impossible without boldness. He then smiled and said, "Taking care of this child is not a problem, rest assured. However, may I humbly ask if, when Young Friend Lin finds some free time, you could come and refine a few batches of flawless quality elixirs for me?"

"Of course, Elder Xue. I’m truly grateful to you." Lin Feng agreed succinctly. For him, alchemy was not an issue. As long as Xinyue was well cared for, he was willing to meet any conditions Elder Xue might have.

"Brother..." Xinyue rubbed her eyes and spoke to Lin Feng. She was aware that being by Lin Feng’s side caused him much inconvenience and spoke cautiously.

"Xinyue, you stay with this grandfather for now. Once I’ve finished my work, I’ll come back to get you," Lin Feng squatted down, gently patting Xinyue’s head, and said kindly. He was genuinely worried that Xinyue would be upset; she had just lost her grandfather, and if he ignored her, it would surely trouble her heart, but he truly had too many things to attend to at the moment, and keeping Xinyue with him was inconvenient.

Unexpectedly, Xinyue nodded understandingly, smiling at Lin Feng, she said, "Okay, I’ll be good."

Seeing Xinyue’s sensibility, Lin Feng smiled sincerely, glanced at Ma Biaohu, and said, "Let’s go."

After saying goodbye to Elder Xue, they left the auction house...

After leaving the auction house, it was time for Lin Feng and Ma Biaohu to find an inn to rest. The past few days had been extremely exhausting for them. Ma Biaohu carried Xue’er, while Tangyuan sat on Lin Feng’s shoulder as the two of them, along with the two beasts, headed to a nearby Yunlai Inn to take a short rest. They planned to see if there were any shops for sale in Lin City the next day, as they needed to start preparing for the establishment of the Holy Pill Pavilion.
