“The Lin Family from Jiangzhou?”
On hearing this, Wu Er said irritably, “Are you getting ahead of yourself? The Lin Family of Jiangzhou is a branch of the Lin Family. Not just anyone can afford to provoke them. You – ”
As he spoke, something caught in his throat, his eyes fixed on Gu Yang. His eyeballs nearly burst from their sockets as if he had seen a ghost, “You you the Golden Body?”
It was only now that he noticed something different about Gu Yang. He looked more closely – good lord, it was indeed the Golden Body!
Even with all his wisdom and experience, Wu Er was dumbfounded by such an unbelievable incident.
Gu Yang’s cultivation speed was continually shattering his understanding.
He had already overestimated Gu Yang as much as possible. He simply couldn’t fathom how this kid had managed to cultivate the Golden Body in less than a month.
Unable to contain himself, Wu Er asked, “You can’t possibly be a reincarnation of an ancient grandmaster, can you?”
Gu Yang laughed and said, “If I say I am, how would you react?”
“Well, obviously I would cling to your coattails.”
Making a joke, Wu Er moved the conversation along and mused, “You are already halfway to reaching the Divine Power realm. You probably do stand a chance against the Lin Family of Jiangzhou. If confronted with a Golden Body, even if you can’t match them, you should have no difficulty escaping.”
The Lin Family of Jiangzhou, as a branch of one of the nine great families, had sole control over a state. Of course, it would not be so simple.
Wu Er’s words implied that he suspected that the Lin Family of Jiangzhou likely has a Golden Body realm powerhouse.
“I heard that the Lin family has always kept a low profile, never involving themselves in the affairs of the martial world or the politics of the court.”
Gu Yang felt that it was necessary to know more about the Lin Family.
Wu Er snorted, “That’s now. Over four hundred years ago, the Lin family was the head of the nine great families and acted with total domination ”
Elsewhere, an old man and a young woman were also discussing the Lin Family.
The young woman, dressed as a man, exuded a strong feminine aura from her brows and eyelashes. Anyone who wasn’t blind could tell she was a woman.
She was riding a divine horse with golden fur and said, “The Lin Family has long been declining. For hundreds of years, they’ve been like a turtle retracting its head into its shell, stuck in Ningzhou, not producing any remarkable figures. Let’s not even mention this branch family in Jiangzhou. What’s so good about going there? We should quickly go to Jingzhou and find that Gu Yang.”
Riding a black horse beside her was an old man dressed in green. With his white, beardless face, completely white hair and eyebrows, and frail body, the old man’s voice was high-pitched.
“You’re not aware, princess. In the previous dynasty, the Lin Family was the leader of the nine great families. Because the Lin Family once produced a Celestial Being, they were the only nobility in the nine great families to have done so ”
The princess said, “I know that. It was exactly due to that Celestial Being from the Lin Family that the Qin Dynasty collapsed. This allowed our Zhao Family to take advantage of the chaos and seize power, establishing a foundation of hundreds of years.”
“Correct. After the death of that Celestial Being from the Lin Family, they shut their doors to the outside world. Until a hundred years ago, a Lin descendant came to Jiangzhou and founded this branch. It’s quite mysterious.”
“The Jiangzhou Lin Family received part of the Lin Family’s true teachings. After all, they’re a family that produced a Celestial Being. Their martial arts must have unique features.”
“Besides, about Gu Yang there are rumors that he has already left Jingzhou. As for where he has gone, we have yet to find out. Why not go to the Lin Family first and see for ourselves?”
Upon hearing that Gu Yang’s whereabouts were unknown, the princess couldn’t help but feel disappointed. She had finally persuaded her father to let her leave the Divine City on this trip, intending to find Gu Yang and challenge him.
Who would have thought that as soon as she arrived in Jiangzhou, Gu Yang had disappeared?
Her enthusiasm faded. She reluctantly nodded and said, “Alright.”
In Jiangzhou City, at the Lin Family residence.
“Zhao Yu the third princess?”
Upon seeing the name on the card, Lin Youliang couldn’t help but feel a headache.
Even though the card only showed her name without mentioning her status as a princess, it was obvious that the card was from the royal family. It was clear that the holder was the famous third princess.
The current emperor has a total of seven sons and three daughters.
Among them, the third princess is the youngest. The previous queen died in childbirth after giving birth to her.
