Lin Tian looked at Lin Lie.

Lin Lie smiled bitterly and said, "My father, Lin Jue, went into seclusion a hundred years ago, but he didn't tell anyone where he was. He's nowhere to be found now. Otherwise, how could this sinner Lin Yang dare to collude with outsiders and plot to take the position of head of the family?"

"Lin Lie! Stop calling me a sinner. Who is the sinner?"

Lin Yang's face was gloomy. "I am also considering the overall interests of the family. The Lin family's strength is far less than before, and the surrounding hostile forces are eyeing them covetously. What's wrong with me finding an emperor-level worshiper to sit in the Lin family and deter all parties? "

Lin Lie shouted, "How dare you quibble..."

“That’s enough!”

Lin Tiandao said, "I'm not here to listen to you quarrel. Lin Lie, do you want me to help you kill him?"

Lin Yang's heart trembled, and he said in panic: "Lin Tian... why do you have to go against me? If you support me, no matter what you want, I can agree to it. By the way, aren't you from the Lin family? I will give you the position of the family's supreme elder, what do you think?"

"Lin Yang, you're such a thief! Whenever you encounter problems, you only seek external help. You have no bottom line. You've brought shame upon our family!"

Lin Lie was also panicked. He shouted angrily and looked at Lin Tian with a nervous face, fearing that Lin Tian would agree.

"I'm not interested."

Lin Tiandao: "Lin Lie, let me ask you again, do you want to kill him?"

Lin Lie breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the nervous Lin Yang and finally couldn't bear it: "Forget it, for the sake of our brotherhood, let's spare his life."

Lin Tian said, "This is your family affair, I don't want to get involved. But I want to remind you that some things, once done once, will be done a second time. If he colludes with outsiders to deal with you again in the future, it will be too late for you to regret it."

Lin Lie said, "So, I'm going to cripple his cultivation and let him retire peacefully in the Lin Mansion."

Lin Tian was a little surprised. He thought Lin Lie was a soft-hearted woman, but he didn't expect him to be such a ruthless character.

Sure enough, no one who can sit on the position of the head of the family is a simple person!

"Lin Lie, you dare!"

Lin Yang's eyes were wide open with anger. He would rather die than have his cultivation destroyed.

"Family sinner, accept your punishment!"

Lin Lie suddenly attacked and punched Lin Yang's dantian.

Lin Yang was horrified and instinctively wanted to dodge, but his cultivation was restricted by Lin Tian and he was completely powerless. He could only watch helplessly as the punch hit him!

Bang!

Lin Yang's dantian shattered instantly, and he couldn't help but burst out a stream of blood.

“Lin Lie——”

Lin Yang's face was ferocious and his eyes were bloodshot. He felt that his cultivation was rapidly dissipating. He was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath, fell backwards and fainted.

The entire hall was in deathly silence!

Everyone in the Lin family looked at Lin Lie with awe in their eyes.

Lin Lie said expressionlessly: "Lin Yu, take your second uncle down and let him recover from his injuries."

"yes!"

Lin Yu responded, grabbed Lin Yang from the ground, and quickly left the hall.

Lin Lie slowly scanned the crowd, the emperor's pressure covering the entire place.

No one in the Lin Mansion dared to look at Lin Lie and lowered their heads.

"I can forgive what happened before, but from now on I hope you can behave yourself and not stand on the wrong side again, otherwise you will end up like Lin Yang."

Lin Lie's every word echoed throughout the venue.

"Yes! Patriarch!"

Everyone responded respectfully. Lin Yang had been deposed, and the Lin family no longer had any other emperors. Lin Lie was all-powerful, and no one dared to have any other thoughts.

Lin Lie was very satisfied with the crowd's reaction. He relaxed his expression and looked at an old man: "Great Elder, go get the Ancestral Vein Stone."

The Great Elder took the order and left in a hurry.

Lin Lie then looked at Lin Tian. The patriarch's majesty faded, and a smile spread across his face. "Today's matter is all thanks to your generosity. I cannot thank you enough. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask. As long as I can do it, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Lin Tiandao said, "It's just a small favor, don't worry about it. I'm in a hurry, how long will it take for the Ancestral Vein Stone to be brought to you?"

Lin Lie said hurriedly: "It won't take long, please wait a moment."

Lin Tian nodded and stopped talking.

Lin Lie didn't know what to say for a moment. They were unfamiliar with each other and the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Fortunately, the eldest elder of the Lin family returned quickly and broke the awkward atmosphere.

"Patriarch! Ancestral Stone."

The Great Elder held a green wooden box that looked like jade but was not jade, and carefully handed it to Lin Lie.

Lin Lie took it and opened it, and an oval stone the size of a palm appeared in front of everyone.

This object is the ancestral stone, a legacy of the Lin family of Fengming City. It's pitch black, with densely packed circles of dark red lines on its surface, exuding an unfathomable aura. At first glance, it dazzles the eyes, sending blood churning and a sense of inexplicable dizziness.

Lin Tian stared at the Ancestral Vein Stone, feeling a mysterious force stirring his blood vessels. He couldn't help but feel curious: "How do I use this Ancestral Vein Stone?"

Lin Lie said, "Just drop some fresh blood in. If it's the Lin family's bloodline, the vein patterns on the ancestral stone will light up. The older the bloodline, the more vein patterns will light up. The Lin family of Fengming City has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, and countless generations have passed. Their bloodline has become increasingly thin, and now not even a single vein pattern can be lit."

After saying that, Lin Lie bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood onto the ancestral stone.

Buzz——

The ancestral stone absorbed the blood and reacted immediately. After a slight vibration, a vein on it began to glow, but it only flickered a few times before dimming again.

Lin Lie hadn't lied. He couldn't even light up a single vein. However, any movement in the veins meant they were descendants of the Lin family.
