WU DONG QIAN - KUN
Chapter 85: Master of the First Seal Symbol

Lin Dong carefully controlled the 'black sword' held together by the 'Destroying Yuan Shards' as he floated once around the room. Although the posture he used to control him could be judged ugly, it did not hinder the uncontrollable excitement on the young man's face as he drove and went around with the sword. He did not expect that he could actually succeed in doing this fairy tale-like thing.

After Lin Dong stepped on the 'Destroying Yuan Fractions' and floated once around the room, a thought appeared in his mind. 'The 'Black sword' separated and once again turned into nine black objects that entered his sleeve. His body also deftly landed on the ground.

“This is really not bad. But it really consumes Mental Energy..”.

Lin Dong patted his hands, feeling a little regretful while remaining amazed. If his Mental Energy could be a little stronger, he might be able to fly in the sky like those legendary heroes. Right now, it was likely that his Mental Strength would be completely depleted after flying for a short while, resulting in him falling from the sky.

As soon as he stored the Yuan Broken Fragment, Lin Dong observed the Fate Symbols inside his Ni Wan Palace. At this moment, the Fate Symbol was suspended within it. At first glance, however, this symbol seemed too blurry and dim. It required Lin Dong to train it for a long time before it could completely freeze into a Fate Symbol.

"One Seal ..."

Observing the Fate Symbol inside Ni Wan Palace, Lin Dong could not help but smile. From now onward, he could also be considered the official First Seal Symbol Master. He wasn't too keen on writing down things like armor or weapons but he was very interested in the potential of Mental Energy. As Grandmaster Yan had said, this power was indeed no weaker than the strong people trained in Yuan Power. Once one reached the advanced stage, flipping mountains or dropping oceans was simply something that could be done with the mind.

However, the Mental Energy seemed a little emptier and more refined when compared to the real Yuan Power. If one did not have the talent for it, most likely one would have a hard time making progress.

Talent is very important in Mental Energy training. This was also the reason why Grandmaster Yan was so touched when he saw the Mental Energy talent that Lin Dong had displayed.

This type of heavenly power to overturn the lake and topple the sea was something that Lin Dong could only maintain at the moment. Fortunately, however, he was able to clearly sense that his control over Mental Energy after the Fate Symbol had successfully frozen, was clearly superior to before. He had the confidence that if he were to once again meet with this type of ambush by Lei Pi, the latter would definitely not have the chance to escape.

Lin Dong felt very satisfied about this. The actions of the Lei Pi group this time around, were the clear start of their intention to attack the Lin Family. When facing this veteran family in Qingyang City, the Lin Family had to try their hardest. After all, if they were not careful, they might actually end up with destruction and death.

After the Lin Family is destroyed, the Lei Family will exterminate them all. It was something that Lin Dong definitely did not want to see.

Therefore, Lin Dong had to do whatever he could to increase his strength before the Lei Family attacked the Lin Family. Only by doing this can they have additional protection.

“Family Lei..”

Lin Dong's eyes narrowed. Cold flashes flowed within them. When faced with people who had real killing intent towards him, Lin Dong would view them as enemies. Once he had the chance, he would let the Lei Family pay the price for today's actions.

…

In the days that followed, the atmosphere within Qingyang City seemed to quietly become a little anxious. The interactions between the upper echelons of the Lei and Xie Families also became increasingly frequent. Some groups that have excellent information, can also sense that something is wrong.

Of course, the Lin Family also felt this abnormality. As they pressed for time and as Lin Zhentian once again entered the crucial moment of his retreat, no one dared to disturb him at this moment. This was because everyone knew that only when Lin Zhentian entered the Yuan Dan stage did the Lin Family no longer need to fear the Lei and Xie Families forming an alliance. Otherwise, if they were to fight at this moment, the chances of the Lin Family winning would not be high.

After all, it could be said that even though the Lin Family foundation was no weaker than any Lei or Xie Family due to the Yang Yuan Stone Layer, they were still somewhat disadvantaged if the two families cooperated.

Hence, they had to wait for Lin Zhentian to make it out of his retreat regardless of what happened.

…

Influenced by the atmosphere spreading within Qingyang City, the Steel Wood Manor also appeared to be extremely wary. Normal defense has increased several times. Even at night, there will be people who continue to patrol.

Under this kind of tense atmosphere, another half a month flowed quickly.

On a piece of cool and shady wasteland, Lin Dong's body was like a sky rabbit, as his fists and palms were thrown, so he could not help but, it carried a steaming palm wind that gently and deeply hummed as it sent all the dead leaves on the ground flying.

“Bang.”

"Lin Dong-ge, Father and the others are calling you to hurry to the Meeting Room!"

At the moment when Lin Dong pulled his fist back, a slender figure suddenly came running. A clear voice that was like a bird began to spread in the Lin Family courtyard.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Lin Dong was stunned for a moment. Immediately after, he quickly nodded his head. He knew that in the current tense state of the Lin Family, there were many things to do.

"Let's go."

Lin Dong waved his hand at Qing Tan beside him. Without much hesitation, he turned around and ran towards where the Meeting Room was. When the young girl saw the situation, her little mouth pouted. He then hurriedly followed.

Meeting rooms.

When Lin Dong entered, he realized that not only Lin Xiao and the others (the older generation) were there but the younger generation like Lin Hong were also present. However, everyone's expression was quite dark. Seeing this scene, Lin Dong's heart silently beat even harder.

"What's going on.?" Lin Dong sped up his pace, entered and asked.

Seeing Lin Dong walk in, the group of three men Lin Xiao and Lin Ken quietly sighed in relief. Unwittingly, they seemed to have treated Lin Dong as a pillar of the Lin Family.

"During this period of time, we quietly moved the Lin Family family members from Qingyang City towards the Steel Wood Manor one after another."

Hearing this, Lin Dong nodded. Since the Lei Family could even directly attack him, using other methods was very common. If that family member was captured by the Lei Family, it would severely cripple the Lin Family, if the former used those people to threaten them when the time came.

“Because we were worried about being caught by the Lei and Xie Families, the efficiency was not very high. Today is the last batch. However, the Lei and Xie Families found him this time. According to the information we received, the Lei Family is currently sending people to pursue the last group of family members of our Lin Family!" Lin Xiao said with a grim face.

Lin Dong knitted his brows. Looking at Lin Xia beside him who still had tear marks on his face and Lin Xiao's sad face, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. "Who among the last group of family members?"

“Most of them are women. Your sister-in-law and mother are all inside them. ” Lin Xiao's body trembled slightly. His low voice was a little scary to listen to.

The sister-in-law he was talking about was Lin Ken's natural wife and Lin Xia's mother.

"Mother?" Lin Dong's face changed slightly. His fists immediately tightened and his expression darkened.

“This time, the Xie Family is personally led by Xie Qian. We want to tell the Raging Blade Dojo but the Lei clan is watching them closely. Therefore, they cannot act.” Lin Ken's expression was extremely ugly at this moment.

“Xie Qian's has a late stage Heavenly Yuan Level ability. At the very least, it required Lin Xiao and I to personally take action to stop him. However, once we leave, the Steel Wood Manor defense will weaken. Right now, your grandfather is in the most important stage and not a single mistake can happen! ”

As soon as Lin Ken's words fell, the entire hall became silent. His words implied that they could not spare the energy to save those people …

The tears in Lin Xia's eyes once again flowed, as he bit his lips and looked at Lin Ken intently.

Lin Ken clenched his fists and closed his eyes tightly. His face was filled with pain and bitterness. The Lei and Xie Families had already planned to attack the Lin Family. Their only hope was that Lin Zhentian could make a breakthrough to the Yuan Dan stage. Otherwise, even if they managed to save a family member, it would only result in the same ending.

“Dad, you two should take care of Steel Metal Manor. I'll go where Mom is!”

In silence, the tone of voice of the young man had a dark and cold killing intent seeping out from him as it echoed throughout the hall.
