Yin Zhong's wind-controlling magic was no match for Lin Bufan's improved version of Wind God's Wrath, and he was forced back several steps.

However, if one assumes that this is Yin Zhong's full strength and underestimates him, one will definitely suffer a great loss.

Tong Bo had suffered at Yin Zhong's hands before, and Tong Xin had suffered even more, to the point that he came to regard Yin Zhong as his master.

Lin Bufan knew Yin Zhong's strength and never underestimated him, fighting very seriously.

Yin Zhong also became serious, "The wind manipulation spell is very powerful, let's try my fire spell next."

Flames suddenly ignited and surged wildly from all directions—heavenly fire.

Lin Bufan also knows fire-based techniques, such as the Flaming Blade, An Shigeng's Western Region Fire-Setting Technique, and the Blazing Yang Palm he stole from Martial Venerable Bi Xuan.

These martial arts techniques can all release flames, but they use one's own power, a transformation from internal force and true qi to actual combustion, from the inside out.

Yin Zhong's fire magic is different; it comes from heavenly fire, an inexhaustible source of natural power.

Individual strength is insignificant; how can we possibly contend with nature?

Lin Bufan's arson technique was no match for Yin Zhong's Heavenly Fire spell, and he was at a disadvantage after just one round.

Yin Zhong was overjoyed and mocked, "All bark and no bite, kid. You're still too green to compete with me, Yin Zhong, in fire techniques."

"How dare you speak like that? I am your ancestor."

Lin Bufan was unwilling to suffer any loss, and immediately mobilized his extraordinary comprehension to comprehend Yin Zhong's fire control technique in the shortest possible time.

In just a few breaths, I learned it.

His comprehension is truly extraordinary.

It's a real surprise.

At first, he thought that the system's removal of the function to collect fragments of cultivation techniques from negative emotions would hinder his improvement of strength.

Unexpectedly, the superhuman comprehension that replaced him completely made up for his shortcomings, and he was not afraid of any powerful enemy.

Yin Zhong's version of the Fire Control Technique was transformed into Lin Bufan's martial arts, and he comprehended the Four Symbols Technique.

"Vulcan's Wrath!"

Another fire-type Dharma body has appeared.

Yin Zhong was immediately in a predicament. Although he had not yet used many of his techniques, and had not even used the Dragon God Technique, he was already suspicious.

This boy is completely proficient in my magic and techniques. When I use the Wind Control Technique, he uses the Book Control Technique; when I use the Fire Control Technique, he uses the Fire Control Technique.

Could it be that he really is my ancestor?

No, even if they are members of the Tong clan, they may not be my ancestors; at most, they may be my seniors.

"Are you really a member of the Tong clan?"

Just to be on the safe side, Yin Zhong stopped fighting and cautiously asked again.

Lin Bufan also stopped, remaining calm and composed: "How could it be false? I know everything about you. For example, five hundred years ago, you fought a life-or-death battle with General Longteng. General Longteng wielded the Fire Dragon Sword and wounded you, then used the Spirit Mirror to shine on your chest, causing you to suffer unbearable pain for hundreds of years, and from time to time you need to rely on a giant python and special pool water to heal your wounds..."

"Enough, shut up, I believe you," Yin Zhong hurriedly called out.

Whether you believe it or not is one thing, the key point is that Yin Tianqi and Tie Feng's group of people from Yujian Villa are here.

This guy is so outspoken, he's spilled all his secrets. Can he still be Master Yin?

No, it's impossible; they'll be forced to revert to their ancestral status.

In that case, his plan to go to Shuiyue Cave would fall through, and the situation would be very unfavorable for him.

Yin Tianqi, Tie Feng, and the others from Yujian Manor did not hear the following words.

Because the fire in Yin Tianqi's hand had not yet been extinguished.

The fire was difficult to extinguish, and Yin Tianqi was in a terrible state; one of his arms was torn open and the smell of burning flesh could be smelled.

"Second Master, the young master's hand is badly injured."

Tie Feng cried for help.

Yin Zhong glanced at him coldly and muttered, "Useless idiot."

He immediately cast a water-based spell, and a jet of water shot out from his palm, flying to extinguish the flames on Yin Tianqi's arm.

The flames were finally extinguished, and the Iron Guards breathed a collective sigh of relief, thinking to themselves that the one who tied the knot must untie it.

Hopefully, Second Master will be more restrained next time and won't use such group attack skills, which can hurt both himself and others.

"Tianqi is injured like this, let's head back home," Yin Zhong said.

Tie Feng hesitated and asked, "What about the funeral of the Grand Master?"

Yes, the funeral procession was only halfway through, and the head of the estate was still lying in the coffin when they turned back to their residence?

The people from Yujian Manor looked at each other, puzzled as to what the Second Master meant.

Yin Zhong angrily cursed: "A bunch of brainless idiots! That guy was pretending to be my big brother, you didn't think my big brother was still in his coffin, did you? He's been kidnapped long ago."

Huh?!

Everyone was surprised and suspicious, and hurriedly ran to lift the coffin to see.

The coffin was indeed empty; there was no sign of the master of the manor.

They've been watching all along; the coffin has been in sight the whole time. When did the head of the manor have it stolen?

Could it be that before they left, when the body was placed in the mourning hall, that person sneaked into the villa and stole it?

If this is the case, this person must have an inside contact within the villa. But who could it be?

By the way, Miss Yin Tianxue didn't come out. She always likes to go against the Second Master. Could it be that she conspired with that person who was pretending to be a ghost?

Tie Feng was loyal to Yin Hao, but he was also very thoughtful, constantly staring at Yin Zhong and having all sorts of wild thoughts.

Tie Feng had taken in a lot of what Yin Tianchou said while he was acting strangely.

Yin Tianchou said that the Second Master had killed the First Master, and the Second Master immediately became furious and used his magic to search for the man.

Could it be that the Second Master's vulnerability, triggered by someone's prediction, is truly related to the death of the Great Master?

"Looking at me like that, you don't suspect I killed your own brother, do you?"

Yin Zhong said domineeringly, "You are just a captain of the Iron Guard, and I am just a dog of the Imperial Sword Manor. If a dog is not loyal to its master, I can kick you out of the Imperial Sword Manor at any time."

Tie Feng was shocked and immediately knelt down on one knee, clasped his hands and said, "This subordinate dares not doubt Second Master."
