WU DONG QIAN - KUN
Chapter 56: The Energy on Earth

"Dad!"

As he looked at the figure that appeared in front of him, Lin Dong's mood turned slightly excited and he immediately greeted his father.

“You're a bad guy. I told you to just stay back and observe. How dare you barge into the manor alone! ” Naturally, the person who appeared in front of Lin Dong, was Lin Xiao, who immediately rushed after he saw the signal. At this moment, he had turned his head and angrily scolded Lin Dong.

"Third Master, please don't blame young master Lin Dong. If he doesn't bring us to the manor, I'm afraid this Steel Wood Manor will be completely destroyed by the Lei Family. ” Qin Ying, who was standing on one side, hurriedly walked over while pointing towards the damaged forest and explained.

After hearing these words, Lin Xiao was instantly shocked. As he turned his head towards the direction Qin Ying was pointing at, he saw a black forest filled with a foul smell. Immediately, his facial expression turned extremely ugly.

“Lin Xiao, although we have lost this Steel Wood Manor to your family, before we officially handed it over, this place still belongs to the Lei Family. To actually dare and attack this place, do you disrespect our Lei Family! ”

Just as Lin Xiao's facial expression turned ugly, an angry shout sounded from close up. After that the Lei Ying duo, leading around ten people, rushed over.

"Huh, if I don't barge in, the Lei Family will completely destroy the entire Steel Wood Manor!" Lin Xiao coldly laughed as he grimly looked at Lei Ying and the others.

Upon hearing these words, the facial expressions of Lei Ying and Lei Ruo changed. As they gazed at the area around the Steel Wood forest district, they furrowed their brows while silently cursing in their hearts.

"Third Brother, what happened?"

Right at this moment, Lin Ken also rushed along with some skilled practitioners from the Lin Family. After witnessing this impasse, he gently asked Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao briefly explained the event. When Lin Ken heard that the Lei Family was so despicable that they planned to destroy even the land of the Steel Wood Manor, although he was usually a calm person, anger instantly filled his heart. After all, this was really a low blow.

“The Lei family is absolutely amazing. After stalling for so long, you really plan to completely uproot this area and destroy the ground! Lin Ken coldly looked at Lei Ying and the others as he said coldly.

On one hand, the skilled practitioners of the Lin Family were now tightly gripping the swords and swords in their hands with steel-like expressions. They clearly sensed that a great battle could break out at any moment.

After their tactics were revealed, the expressions of Lei Ying and the other faces turned distorted. They decided not to hide the truth anymore and Lei Ying replied nonchalantly: “The Steel Wood Manor is the fruit of the hard work of our Lei Family. Why should we serve it to the Lin Family on a silver platter. ”

Upon hearing these words, Lin Ken and the others grew even more furious.

“Lei Family Character is really awesome. From now on, this Steel Wood Manor belongs to our Lin Family. If there is any objection, you can file it with me! ” Lin Xiao threatened as a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"How dare you!"

Hearing these words, the faces of Lei Ying and the others twitched. However, when they remembered that Lin Xiao had reached the Heavenly Yuan Middle Stage, they could only contain their anger. After all, if they were to fight now, they would definitely get the shorter end of the stick.

“Heh, since the Lin Family is so obsessed with this Steel Wood Manor, we will give it to you. However, please take good care. In the end, all of this will eventually return to our Lei Family. ”

Lei Ying looked at Lin Xiao and the others threateningly before he laughed coldly. Without further ado, he immediately waved his hand and left with his other crew.

As they looked at Lei Ying and the others, the facial expressions of Lin Xiao and his group barely improved. After all, with all the damage inflicted on the Steel Wood Manor, the output of the Steel Wood was bound to drop substantially.

"That damned bastard!" Lin Ken's face flushed red as he cursed at them in a low voice.

Lin Xiao also issued a****** soft* as he said: "Let's check out the Steel Tree forest area around the Steel Wood Manor and check the extent of the damage."

"Yes!"

After hearing his words, the guards from the Lin Family spread out quickly and entered the Steel Wood forest area.

After about half an hour of examination, they returned to report their findings. Although their reports only made the facial expressions of Lin Ken and Lin Xiao deteriorate.

Standing beside them, Lin Dong also furrowed his brows. There are still some mature steel wood trees left in this area. However, the biggest disadvantage was that the Lei Family had completely poisoned the land. Therefore, even if they could still plant steel wood trees in the future, the overall harvest would drop drastically.

"Yes." Yeah."

Lin Ken smiled sadly as he nodded. Right now, this is all they can do.

As he stared at their twisted expressions with anger and disappointment, Lin Dong also sighed deeply. This tactic by the Lei Family was truly cruel.

…

As soon as news of the matter reached the Lin Family, in just half a day, Lin Zhentian led a group of men to personally inspect the Steel Wood Manor. As he stared at the rotten and foul-smelling forest ground, his facial expression turned extremely dark.

Lin Dong sat on the cliff and looked down at the large hall. From that hall, Lin Zhentian's furious roar could be clearly heard. Although Lin Dong was not sitting inside the hall, he could not help but shiver a little. After all, this was the first time he had seen Lin Zhentian so furious. It seems like the Lei Family has really crossed the line this time around.

“How scary.”

Sitting beside her, Qing Tan licked her lips as she muttered softly. This time, he had come along with Lin Zhentian and the others.

Lin Dong laughed out loud before he stood up and said: "Let's go for a walk. I believe Grandfather's anger will not subside any time soon, it would be best to let Father and the others handle this. ”

"okay." Qing Tan nodded with a mischievous smile.

Lin Dong let Qing Tan sit on Little Flame as he led the way to the deeper parts of the Steel Wood Manor.

Steel Wood Manor occupied a large piece of land and the surroundings were extremely beautiful. If not for the faint stench from the surroundings, it would have been an extremely beautiful summer vacation home.

“Steel Wood Manor has special dark soil needed for planting Steel Trees. It is said that long ago, the area where the Steel Wood Manor was located at the moment was a volcano and all the dark land came from the time the volcano erupted. Now that the volcano had vanished, the dark land became a finite commodity. Since the Lei Family has destroyed vast swaths of land, I fear that the output of Steel Wood will drop drastically in the future. That's why Grandpa was so angry. ” In the quiet forest, Lin Dong casually explained to the young lady beside him.

"Oh." Qing Tan gently nodded her head as she looked around and said: "The temperature here is higher than outside."

"Oh?"

After hearing these words, Lin Dong was shocked. Although he tried to feel it, he realized that he could not feel the heat. In a flash of inspiration, he suddenly recalled that due to the terrifying Coldness of Qing Tan's body, he was extremely sensitive to the surrounding temperature.

“The water content here is rather high, how can it feel warmer?” As he found out the previous question, Lin Dong was again confused as he gently muttered to himself. He crouched down and grabbed a handful of black soil with his right hand. Just when his hand touched the black ground, his body suddenly jolted as excitement appeared in his eyes.

"There are traces of Yang Energy hidden within the ground here!"

When Lin Dong grabbed the dark ground, he could clearly feel the suction force emanating from the Stone Talisman embedded in his right palm. Due to this suction force, a faint stream of air was sucked out from the dark ground. Although only a little, the air felt hot burning like sunlight. This was something completely different from Yin Energy!

This sort of thing was commonly known as Yang Energy and was absorbed by all Heavenly Yuan practitioners!

“How can this be?”

Lin Dong was confused. Since there was only a small amount of Yang Energy contained within it, if he had a Stone Amulet, he would never find it. Nonetheless, it must exist.

Lin Dong raised his head and looked further into the depths of this place as his brows fused tightly together. He immediately took a few hundred steps forward and he grabbed another pile of dark earth.

"As I advance deeper, the Yang Energy in the dark ground gets stronger." After he saw this change, Lin Dong was even more confused. Despite the rather miserable amount of Yang Energy, why was Yang Energy embedded in this land from the very beginning?

“Except... Under the surface, there is something emitting Yang Energy. Therefore, traces of Yang Energy were mixed into the soil ... "

lin Dong's eyes flashed as he subconsciously pushed the ground beneath him. It seemed like there was a mystery hidden in this Steel Wood Manor.
