Chapter 978: The Journey Is About To Begin

Translator: Lam_Editor: Hitesh_

”Elder! H-he…! He…!” The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect were all stunned silly right now. Just what in the world was this situation? Their elder was a True Immortal state powerful being! How could he lose to a single young man?

Qing Yangzi was just standing there. Even though his expression was calm, he felt as though he had lost all hope in life. That old face of his stung a little as though he had just been slapped thoroughly left and right.

To think that given his strength as a True Immortal state lower level being, he would actually be defeated by some lad of Immemorial Ancient state upper level.

If word of this were to get out, how much face would he lose because of it?

And, that was even before considering the fact that this place here was swarmed with people right now. His defeat had been witnessed by countless of people.

All of the spectating commoners yelped out in shock.

”That old bigshot of the sect has actually lost to the Young Master of the Lin Family? This is way too explosive of an affair!”

”Just what sort of strength does that Young Master of the Lin Family possess?! How could he possibly be this strong?”

”That move from earlier on was way too tyrannical! Using his hands as a sword, he just slammed it down straight on the head of that old bigshot of the sect!”

”By the looks of it, this is going to be the uprising of the Lin Family right now. With a strength of that level, who in the world would still dare to go against the Lin Family in the future?”

”I heard that the Family Heads of the other seven great families had gone to the Lin Family yesterday to propose for marriage. Even though I don't know what the general outcome of that was, it is pretty evident that those seven Family Heads are just trying to pull some connections with the Lin Family.”

”I heard that all of them were rejected by the Young Master of the Lin Family. After all, this Young Master Lin is someone who is going to be the disciple of a major sect. By that time, the girls he comes into contact with would definitely be those of a breathtaking and ravishing caliber. They are not people that these daughters of the seven great families could hope to compete against!”

…

”Elder, he…!”

Qing Yangzi waved it off with his hand. Although this was a little embarrassing, a loss was a loss. There was nothing more to be said of it. Instead, he actually felt a small sense of excitement.

As the elder in charge of recruitment for the sect, Qing Yangzi had recruited countless disciples in the past dozens of years. Back in the past, Qing Yangzi had managed to dig out a Lie Qingtian. However, that man was someone who was extremely pragmatic. He used the Heaven and Earth Sect as a stepping board and entered the number one sect of the nine great righteous sects back then, the Panic Sect.

That had caused the Heaven and Earth Sect to be the butt of all sorts of jokes.

And now that he had managed to uncover a disciple as such in the Rising Dragon City, Qing Yangzi knew that this lad was in no way weaker than Lie Qingtian. In fact, he might even be a step above the latter.

”This young lad is a supreme paragon, and surpasses even that Lie Qingtian. The fact that he's able to be discovered by me must be due to good fortune that I've accumulated over several lifetimes.” Qing Yangzi remarked in excitement.

When the surrounding disciples heard how high their elder's evaluation of this young man was, all of them were stunned.

Stronger than Lie Qingtian? What sort of an idea was that?

That was something that they did not even dare to imagine any further.

Lin Family…

Right now, Lin Fan was being surrounded by the masses.

”My son! That was simply way too incredible! Even I have difficulty believing that I could give birth to such an incredibly amazing son! Hurry up and tell your father… Are you truly my son?” Lin Haoming was so ecstatic he was dancing with his hands up in the air. At this moment, he felt as though he could practically fly up into the heavens.

Right now, Lin Fan was really exasperated. He truly wanted to reply with a, ”Yes, you're right. I'm not your son.”

However, he decided to shrug off that idea.

Even if he said that, no one would believe him.

As for this fella, he was quite the decent man to be honest. Well, that would suffice to give him the rights to relish in this self pride for now.

”Tomorrow, I'll be leaving the Lin Family. You guys…” No matter what, Lin Fan had lived here for a full eleven years. Now that he was about to leave so suddenly, he naturally had to console all of them.

But before Lin Fan was even done with his sentence, Lin Haoming spoke up.

”Oh, my son! You are like the mythical dragons of the skies! The Rising Dragon City isn't enough to accommodate someone like you! Once you enter the sect, you must definitely work hard to get a good seventeen or eighteen beautiful fairies. Then, you can come and bring us glory, filling up our halls with future descendants!”

”Don't worry now! With me around, the Lin Family will definitely be able to pull through this period of time! Just remember to visit us often in the future!” Lin Haoming said in exhilaration.

Alright, there was truly nothing that Lin Fan had to say anymore.

”Big Brother! Lan'er can't bear to see you go…!” Lin Lan'er ran into Lin Fan's embrace and hugged him while saying sadly.
