Chapter 336: Long Road as Cultivators (1/2)

”You're my younger brother, why wouldn't I know? But of course, it's only because I have similar thoughts as you in the past.”

Prince Lin San looked at Prince Lin Yan as realization struck him. Right, when their parents were still alive, it was only normal that Prince Lin Yan had the same mindset as him.

Their parents were powerful. With them around, it was clear that Prince Lin Yan always felt protected and it never mattered so much to him about getting stronger. He was not one who got the chance to become the Emperor either. But when they fell, it was clear that Prince Lin Yan had to take the burden by himself.

It was only then he realized that he needed to be more powerful. Cultivators, no matter how strong they were, were still human.

They could die.

Prince Lin San was always protected by Prince Lin Yan and also Prince Lin Xian. He did learn to become strong but he never put it as his priority because he had two brothers who will protect him.

But after this fight, he felt that such thinking was foolish. If he was not strong enough, he wouldn't be able to protect himself. His brothers couldn't always be there to protect him. He couldn't just focus on getting some powerful skill like Eyes of Truth whilst abandoning the others' aspect.

He wouldn't be able to survive that way.

He had to become stronger, strong enough so that no one would be able to stand on his way and prevented him from doing what he wanted.

”Thanks, Big Brother.” Prince Lin San smiled.

Prince Lin Yan nodded and sat down once more. He looked at Lin Xiao, who was still sleeping carelessly and shook his head. It was out of his expectation that his youngest brother would end up the one receiving the Emperor's Inheritance.

And from the way it looked like, Lin Xiao was indeed still a childish young man….

He was only 18, though.

It didn't take long before Lin Xiao woke up. He still felt his heart hurt and Lin Hu immediately scolded him like there was no tomorrow.

”Damn you, Lin Xiao! How many times do I need to remind you that you're not powerful enough to use the ancient words like that? I know you're using dragon words but the concept is the same! You're already reaching your limit by helping Xia Ye and also maintaining that damn lake! If you dare to try this stunt again, I'll roast your brain and eat it!”

”Can you even roast my brain? You'll also die that way.” Lin Xiao scorned.

”Damn you! That's not the point.”

Lin Xiao let out a dry laugh and nodded. When he saw Princess Lan Yi Hua, he couldn't help himself and used this last resort. It was the only method that he could think of that could boost his power within a short period of time.

Looking at his own hands, Lin Xiao gritted his teeth. He was still not strong enough.

”You're awake. Are you alright?” Prince Lin Yan asked.

”Ah yeah, I'm not wounded at all.” Lin Xiao hopped up and grinned. Of course, with Nourishing Lake Technique operating at maximum power in his body, it would be a miracle if he ended up dying because of physical wounds.

Prince Lin San swept his gaze to Lin Xiao, feeling perplexed. ”Your wounds are already healed from some time ago. But why did you only wake up now?”
