On this side, the Lin family father and son looked a little nervous when they heard that Lin Lang was about to leave.

Now that Lin Lang is gone, what should we do if the Qingcheng Sect comes knocking again?

Lin Zhennan said anxiously: "Lin...Xiao Lang, if you leave, we..."

"Mr. Lin, there is no need to worry. Yu Canghai is seriously injured and dying. The Lin family will not be in danger in the short term." Lin Lang said.

Madam Lin looked reluctant and asked, "Xiao Lang, do you really have to leave?"

Lin Lang nodded, "That's right. Although the Lin family won't be wiped out again in the short term, I still need to make preparations early."

"Preparation?" Mrs. Lin was stunned.

"Well, get ready!"

The Lin family father and son looked at Lin Lang in confusion.

Lin Lang's expression became serious, and he said, "Qingcheng Sect is just a small sect. Although Yu Canghai is good at martial arts, he is not considered a big shot in the martial arts world.

And your Lin family is wealthy and powerful, and you are not an unknown family in Fuzhou.

But from the time the Lin family was surrounded by the Qingcheng Sect until now, has the local government taken any action?"

Lin Zhennan's expression suddenly changed. Although he was not good at martial arts, he was good at doing business and his brain was not for show.

"This... The Qingcheng Sect has been besieging my Lin family for a long time. Even if the government is slow to react, they haven't reacted at all until now, as if they've turned a blind eye. It's really..."

Speaking of this, Lin Zhennan's expression became increasingly ugly.

Normally, when officials like prefects and county magistrates saw him, they would call him "Lin Biaotou" or "Master Lin" as if they had a very good relationship.

But when they saw that the Lin family was in great trouble, they all stood by and watched, with no intention of taking charge of the Lin family.

Even if the Qingcheng Sect is a powerful martial arts sect and the government is not in a position to intervene, it is impossible for them to just ignore it like they are doing now.

Lin Pingzhi asked doubtfully, "Daddy, what's wrong?"

"It seems that Mr. Lin knows that this matter is not that simple!" Lin Lang said.

Lin Zhennan nodded helplessly: "That's right, I used to be the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards. Although I had great power, I also offended many ministers because of it."

"really!"

Lin Lang raised his eyebrows. He vaguely remembered that in the original novel, Lin Zhennan had indeed served as the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

What is the concept of Jinyiwei?

The Embroidered Uniform Guard was a military and political intelligence-gathering agency exclusive to the Ming Dynasty. Its predecessor was the "Gongwei Division" established by Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

As a military organization serving as the emperor's personal guards, the Imperial Guard could arrest anyone, including members of the imperial family, and conduct closed-door trials.

Throughout the imperial court, the Embroidered Uniform Guards were a force that terrified many ministers!

As a former member of the Jinyiwei, Lin Zhennan was almost wiped out by the Qingcheng Sect, a small sect in the martial arts world!

The Qingcheng Sect is just a small sect in Sichuan and Shu, not even as good as the declining Huashan Sect. How could they have the courage to deal with the Lin family?

The reason actually lies with Lin Zhennan!

As the former commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he offended countless court ministers.

After Lin Zhennan retired, he was lucky enough not to be killed by those ministers. How could they stand up for the Lin family?

As for those so-called colleagues...

If Lin Zhennan left the Jinyiwei, it would be like cutting off his own arms and making him no longer useful. How could anyone remember him as the former commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei!

The world of martial arts is even simpler. You kill me and I kill you. As long as you are not related to the Demon Cult, no one will be idle and no one cares what you do!

It was because of this that the Qingcheng Sect dared to brazenly try to seize the Lin family's Sword Manual of Exorcism!

Although Yu Canghai failed, he also made a good start.

The Lin family was nearly destroyed, but the imperial court did not cause trouble for the Qingcheng Sect. What does this mean?

This shows that Lin Zhennan is now just a businessman and has nothing to do with the court.

In the past, forces that wanted to target the Lin family would still consider the imperial court, but now, the Lin family has completely lost the capital to make people fear them.

The current Lin family is not even a paper tiger!

The Qingcheng Sect failed today, and tomorrow other sects will be trying to seize the Lin family's Sword Manual of Exorcism.

Anyway, there is no need to worry about the imperial court intervening, and everyone would want to pinch the Lin family, which is a soft persimmon!

It was because of thinking about these things that Lin Zhennan’s face looked so ugly.

He already understood that the Lin family was facing more than just the Qingcheng Sect!

When Mrs. Lin heard this, her face also turned pale, and she had obviously guessed the reason.

Seeing his parents' expressions, Lin Pingzhi had a bad feeling and looked at Lin Lang.

"Lin Lang, what do you mean by preparation?"

"That's exactly what I wanted to say. Now I need time to find a backer for your Lin family, a reliable backer!" Lin Lang said.

"What?"

The three of them widened their eyes. It turned out that Lin Lang left for their Lin family, looking for a backer?

"this……"

"Alas! Given the current situation of our Lin family, how could any other force accept this hot potato of ours?"

Lin Zhennan was not optimistic about Lin Lang's situation.

"How about... I go to the capital?" he suddenly thought.

Lin Lang didn't care what Lin Zhennan thought. He turned to look at Madam Lin and said, "Madam Lin, what do you think?"

Madam Lin looked at Lin Zhennan, then said with a firm expression, "As long as I can save the Lin family, even if I have to live under someone else's roof, it's not a problem. Xiao Lang, I believe in you!"

Lin Lang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you down!"

Given the current situation of the Lin family, Lin Lang could barely keep the Lin family safe even if he worked a little harder.

But Lin Lang knew in his heart that he could protect the Lin family for a while, but not for a lifetime.

The moment Zhu Tian Auto Chess appeared, he already knew that the world of Smiling Proud Wanderer was just the first stop!
