Several hours later, Zhou Xingdou finally managed to calm Yun Jinzhi down and was able to escape from her embrace.

He originally wanted to move Yun Jinzhi to another place, but unfortunately, he didn't seem to have any other place to move her.

The Liu family and the Lin family have a feud, and moreover, with Lin Fan's three-year agreement in place, Yun Jinzhi probably wouldn't be willing to stay in the Liu family.

Zhou Xingdou had no choice but to take out several array plates from the room, including defensive arrays, imprisonment arrays, and shielding arrays.

Several array plates lit up with brilliant light at this moment, activated all at once by Zhou Xingdou.

In an instant, a torrent of array patterns converged at the Lin residence, and one divine array after another, like an inverted bowl, completely covered Yun Jinzhi's boudoir.

With these formations in place, Yun Jinzhi couldn't get out or find out what was happening outside, and even if Lin Fan's father returned, he wouldn't know anything.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Xingdou also left her boudoir and came to the center of the Lin family mansion, where she once again took out an array plate from her storage ring.

However, this array plate was somewhat different from the previous ones. It was pitch black and extremely ancient, yet it radiated a dazzling, fierce light, with surging waves of murderous aura emanating from it, making it clear at a glance that it was extraordinary.

With one hand holding the array plate and the other forming a hand seal, the ancient, dark array plate slowly rose up, fell to the ground of the Lin residence, and disappeared into the earth without a sound.

Suddenly, a crimson light burst forth from the spot where the array plate had fallen, spreading rapidly in all directions.

However, this light did not generate a powerful aura; it dissipated silently and disappeared in an instant.

After doing all this, Zhou Xingdou summoned Butler Jin. He did need some information about Lin Fan's father, since even his real name was unknown at the moment.

In fact, Yun Jinzhi definitely knows more than others, but Zhou Xingdou is reluctant to ask his woman about her past relationships; such matters are best avoided.

Otherwise, she would feel bad, and Yun Jinzhi would feel bad too.

Butler Jin has served the Lin family for many years and has been working alongside Lin Fan's father for a long time, making him a trusted confidant of the Lin family.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so loyal back then, and wouldn't have dared to disrespect me with their meager cultivation.

However, things are different now. Butler Jin is now more obedient than a dog when he sees him. Even if he were to be told to die, he would not hesitate.

Butler Jin was also surprised by Zhou Xingdou's sudden arrival, since Zhou Xingdou had concealed his movements when he entered the Lin residence and also shielded Butler Jin and the others from the sensation of the Myriad Transformation Slave Seal within their bodies.

However, this surprise was fleeting. In an instant, an intense fervor flashed in his eyes, and he immediately knelt on the ground, praying devoutly as if he were facing a god.

“Great master! Your arrival has made me, your humble servant, unworthy of death for failing to greet you properly.”

As he spoke, Butler Jin nodded vigorously, as if he were truly burdened with countless sins and wished he could kowtow to death in front of Stephen Chow.

Zhou Xingdou was also curious about this situation. After all, he had planted many Myriad Transformation Slave Seals, and the entire Liu family had planted them, but it was rare to see someone as humble and devout as Butler Jin.

He always felt that the subtle transformations of the Wanhua Slave Seal were not entirely the same. For example, Li Xiuru regarded herself as a female slave, Youji was infatuated, and Butler Jin was a devout believer.

While retaining individuality under the premise of enslavement, it avoids becoming monotonous and tiresome, which may be the magic of the Myriad Transformations Slave Mark.

However, now is not the time to discuss this. Zhou Xingdou looked at the butler, who was nodding vigorously, and said indifferently:

"I will forgive your sins, but you shall tell me all the information you know about Lin Fan's father."

Upon hearing this, Butler Jin's face immediately lit up with gratitude. He kowtowed three times reverently before rising and saying:

"Thank you, Master, for your pardon, this humble servant."

After thinking for a moment, Butler Jin organized his thoughts and slowly recounted what he knew:

"Lin Fan's father was named Lin Tong, an illegitimate son of the Lin family in Nanhua Prefecture. This humble servant was a menial laborer in the Lin family and was assigned to Lin Tong."

However, Lin Tong later offended the eldest son of the Lin family and was expelled from the Lin family by the family head. He then came to Tianxuan Sacred State, firstly to avoid the revenge of the eldest son of the Lin family, and secondly because Tianxuan State was rich and might offer him an opportunity.

Unfortunately, Lin Tong was not blessed with good fortune and did not encounter any great opportunities. However, he still reached the realm of a king or marquis and could be considered a powerful figure in his own right.

However, compared to the Lin family, the King and Marquis realm is still too weak, and Lin Tong is also stuck at the King and Marquis level and cannot break through.

In the end, he gave up his desire for revenge and married and had children in Lingyin City, where Lin Fan was born.

However, after giving birth to Lin Fan, Lin Tong became close friends with Liu Jiu, the head of the Liu family, and they arranged a marriage between Lin Fan and Liu Yanran.

It was when Lin Fan was one year old that Lin Tong accidentally obtained a token that could lead to the battlefield outside the domain.

This gave Lin Tong hope for a breakthrough. After all, although the outer realms were dangerous, the opportunities were extremely abundant. As long as he returned alive, he would definitely become a powerful figure in his own right.

Lin Tong then invited Liu Jiu, who was also stuck at a critical juncture in her cultivation realm and unable to break through for a long time. The two hit it off and decided to go to the outer battlefield together.

However, they were gone for more than a decade without any news. The battlefield outside the domain was fraught with danger and teeming with evil spirits. Lin Tong and Liu Jiu's cultivation levels were only considered cannon fodder in the outside domain, so everyone assumed that the two of them had died there.

But I knew Lin Tong was not dead, because when Lin Tong left, he gave me a life tablet. Although the life force on the tablet was weak, it had never been broken.

I have never given this life tablet to the mistress, but she knows that it is not broken.

More than ten years have passed, and for the mistress, it makes no difference whether Lin Tong is alive or dead. She is also annoyed by him, so I, this humble servant, have always been in charge..."

It must be said that Butler Jin speaks in very plain language, simple and easy to understand, yet extremely ordinary.

Zhou Xingdou nodded slightly. Of all the information, only two things caught his attention: the so-called Lin family and Lin Tong's life tablet.

Zhou Xingdou of the Lin family had no impression of him; there was no Lin family among the world's supreme and immortal families.

Nanhua Prefecture is located in the south of the Primordial Dao Domain. There are no famous major forces there. At most, the Lin family is a mid-to-high-level force with a Great Sage presiding over it.

Lin Tong did not appear in the previous life, and Lin Fan had never been to Nanhua Prefecture, so even Zhou Xingdou did not know that Lin Fan had a family.

However, Lin Tong was unlucky. He was an illegitimate son from a powerful family, which could be considered a protagonist template, but unfortunately, he ultimately accomplished nothing and got lost in the outer realms.

If it weren't for Stephen Chow's butterfly effect, he would probably still be in the unknown overseas, his fate uncertain.

However, this also made Zhou Xingdou feel that Lin Tong was probably not a person of good fortune, but could only be considered to have benefited from the influence of Yun Jinzhi and Lin Fan.

Even if he were to die in the future, and Lin Tong were to return safely, he would still be Lin Fan's father, a figure of little brilliance, and could not possibly shine as brightly as Yun Jinzhi, who possessed the bloodline of the Heavenly Phoenix.

Since the system is now unable to sense those with destiny, Zhou Xingdou is not actually confident that he can kill Lin Tong.

If I'm wrong, Lin Tong is also a person of great fortune, and this ambush might not be able to kill him.
