As Lin Xia and the others saw Lei Li finally leave, they quietly sighed in relief in their hearts. Even though Lin Dong had shown astonishing strength during this period of time, even they did not like Lin Dong's chances against the famous genius Lei Li. Therefore, it would be best to avoid a fight.
"Hehe, Lin Xia, it seems like an extraordinary person has finally emerged from the Lin Family." After he saw Lei Li leave, Wu Yun turned around and turned his gaze to Lin Dong before he finally looked at Lin Xia and smiled.
Lin Xia rolled his eyes in response. Immediately after, he patted Lin Dong on the shoulder. With a proud expression, he said: “Of course. Given Lin Dong-biao-de's speed, he can easily surpass all of you.”
Lin Dong shook his head crazily as he looked at how much confidence Lin Xia had placed in him. Then, with a smile, he told Wu Yun: "Thank you for helping out today."
He was clearly aware that Wu Yun intervened to create chaos and prevent Lei Li from attacking him peacefully.
“No need thank you. After all, we were also at odds with Lei Li. If I could make him suffer, I would be happy to do it.” Wu Yun smiled as he flicked his hand. He did not display any air in front of Lin Dong. Wu Yun had observed during the brief conversation with Lei Li, that the latter was in no way weaker than himself.
Lin Dong smiled. It seemed like the Raging Blade Dojo and the Lei and Xie Families did not have a good relationship. In that case, it might be good news for the Lin Family. After all, if these three major factions allied themselves, even with the return of Lin Xiao, the Lin Family would definitely be defeated.
“It's late, I'll move first. Haha, Lin Dong, see you again at the hunt. However, when that time comes, let's hope for a good fight.”
The two of them chatted for a while before Wu Yun smiled and waved. Then, he went with his people.
“Come back too.”
As he saw the place was empty, Lin Dong smiled and turned to tell Lin Xia and the others.
"certain."
After the previous dramatic conflict, Lin Xia and the others did not want to stay any longer and immediately nodded their hands. Under the watchful gazes of the crowd, streams of people came out from the scene.
…
When they returned to the Lin Family, Lin Dong and Qing Tian did not immediately return to their small hilltop. After all, it was the end of the month and also the time for the Lin Family Meeting. During this time, every key member of the Lin Family would gather together and report on all the various events that happened in the past month.
In the past, Lin Dong had not been invited to this meeting. However, ever since the Family Competition, his status within the Lin Family had skyrocketed. Therefore, he now had a place in this Family Gathering.
The full moon hung in the clear night sky as the cold moonlight flowed to the ground and enveloped the earth.
The back yard of the Lin Family was extremely crowded as dozens of people laughed and spoke cheerfully around the large round table.
Lin Dong sat in the left corner, and beside him were Lin Xia, Lin Hong and the other elite young generation members of the Lin Family.
At this Family Gathering, the only joyous opportunity for Lin Dong was to finally see Lin Xiao, who had been busy handling the affairs of the Blazing Manor.
Naturally, Lin Zhentian sat at the head of the dining table. Right now, the old man was chatting with Lin Xiao and inquiring the latest news about the Blazing Manor. After a short investigation, he nodded in satisfaction before finally turning to look at Lin Dong cheerfully.
“Today, I received the news. As it turned out, these young people had clashed with the younger generation members of the Xie Family. In the end, they even caught the attention of Lei Li.”
Everyone's attention was immediately directed to Lin Zhentian. Upon hearing these words, the expressions of some adults darkened as they stared at their own children harshly.
“Dad, this problem was likely caused by my daughter Lin Xia. When I get back, I'll teach him a lesson. ” Lin Ken, who was sitting on one side, growled.
“Haha, no need to worry. This time, they did not humiliate our Lin Family. ”
Lin Zhentian smiled as he waved his hand. In fact, it seemed like this old man was quite happy. He cheerfully continued: “It turns out this little brat Lin Dong has more hidden potential than his father Lin Xiao. Not only did he fire the two Tempered Body 7th Layer youths, but he even managed to stop Lei Li. This is a very commendable achievement.”
"Oh?"
Upon hearing these words, the crowd was slightly shocked. Lin Xiao was even more stunned because he obviously did not expect that Lin Dong was not defeated even after clashing with Lei Li.
"Certainly that?" Lin Xiao could not help but ask.
Under the wary gazes of the crowd, Lin Dong was forced to nod his head as he replied: “I used Penetrating Fist, whereas Lei Li did not use any martial arts. It should not count as a draw.”
“However, Lei Li has long since advanced to Tempered Body 9th Layer. It's amazing that you can use Penetrating Fist to bridge that gap.” Lin Ken smiled and said.
"Lin Dong should have advanced to Tempered Body 8th Layer right?" Lin Zhentian smiled from ear to ear.
Lin Dong quietly sighed in his heart as he nodded his head.
“Good, good grandson. It seems like our Lin Family has finally produced a genius who can match the Lei Family! ” Lin Zhentian involuntarily laughed out loud as he saw Lin Dong nod his head. After hearing this, Lin Xiao and Lin Ken also chuckled while complicated expressions appeared on Lin Mang's face.
“There are only four months left before the hunt. During this time, you have to work hard. If you need something, don't hesitate to say it. Anything I can give you will be yours! ” Lin Zhentian announced with a smile while stroking his beard.
Hearing these words, many people in the crowd were stunned. Lin Zhentian's words clearly showed his intention to treat Lin Dong as the most valuable core member to nurture. Similar to Lin Xiao in the past.
Jealousy appeared in Lin Xia and the others. However, Lin Dong's recent progress and achievements were indeed something that no one could replicate.
“Thank you, Grandpa.”
As he observed the expressions of the crowd, although Lin Dong did not verbally refuse, in his heart, he shook his head. After all, he had a Mysterious Stone Amulet, so the resources of the Lin Family right now were not of much interest to him.
Of course, he wouldn't tell them. Furthermore, even if he did not need the resources of the Lin Family, he would occasionally request from them. After all, he did not want to arouse suspicion as he relied on the godly training speed that the stone talisman had given him.
Lin Zhentian waved his hand as he continued to discuss other matters with the family. Finally, this Family Gathering ended.
As Lin Zhentian walked away, a clear and bright laughter could still be heard. Lin Dong lightly clenched his fists as he understood that the old man had placed all his hopes on this grandson. Just like how he had placed all his hopes on Lin Xiao back then.
“Kakek, rest assured. I will fulfill your wish.”
Lin Dong muttered to himself. Immediately after, he raised his head as a slightly cold smile appeared on his face.
“Of course... There is still a person named Lin Langtian..”.
