Unexpectedly, when they met Lin Yuan again, all the spirits had perished.
She choked back tears and asked, unwilling to accept it, "Really, did they all perish?"
Are there really no survivors?
Is there really no hope?
She knew that asking this was a bit unreasonable, but it was really too painful.
Ding Yun's eyes also reddened, and she hugged the person to comfort them silently.
Seeing them like this, Lin Yuan was also moved. "The spirit of the artifact has indeed perished, but there are still some remains. I have scattered them in the mortal realm."
He recounted how he found the artifact and explained his reasons for doing so.
Jiang Rushi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Having cultivated immortality for so many years, I naturally understand what destiny means.
Since their demise was inevitable, their return to the mortal realm was also inevitable, and their future rebirth was certainly also inevitable.
Otherwise, Lin Yuan wouldn't have gone to all this trouble.
"Lin Yuan, what brings you back this time? Is there anything we can do to help?"
She paused for a moment, then asked the question anyway.
Although asking such a question is somewhat presumptuous.
After all, Lin Yuan's current cultivation level has surpassed that of all mortals.
However, since he appeared in the mortal realm and before them, there must be a reason.
"I've come to put an end to our mortal bond."
Lin Yuan spoke calmly.
When he ascended to heaven in haste, many things in the mortal realm were not yet over.
Especially his two apprentices.
If anything happens to those two boys, he, as their master, will be held fully responsible.
Although he had entrusted it to Jiang Rushi and others long ago, it was not him after all.
The divine realm and the immortal realm need to recuperate, and no one in the mortal realm can ascend for the time being. So he will take this time to spend with his disciples and resolve the last ties in the mortal realm.
A day in heaven is a year on earth. He has been in the celestial realm and the divine realm for so long, while countless years have passed in the mortal realm.
Therefore, those mortals who did not cultivate are already dead, and those who are still alive are those who cultivated in the past and whose cultivation level is not low.
Therefore, Lin Yuan's relatives and friends have long since passed away.
But their descendants still exist.
Since his ascension, his deeds have been widely circulated in the mortal realm. Some descendants of the Lin family have taken advantage of this and deliberately claimed to be descendants of Lin Yuan.
"There was also a period of absurdity when those people were just making small-scale troubles, and we didn't interfere. But once they crossed the line, we immediately showed up."
Ding Yun told Lin Yuan about these things.
During that time, he secretly glanced at Lin Yuan several times, afraid that he had done something wrong.
After all, they were Lin Yuan's relatives. He hadn't married or had children when he ascended to immortality, leaving only his relatives. If Ding Yun didn't want to make things difficult for them, then he had gone too far.
"Those people are still alive?"
Lin Yuan frowned somewhat impatiently.
Indeed, children often resemble their parents.
Looking back at the ugly faces of his relatives, he never imagined that their children would be just like that too.
He wouldn't even flinch if you killed him, let alone educate him.
Hearing this, Ding Yun and Jiang Rushi breathed a sigh of relief. "He's not dead. He often uses your name to swindle and cheat people. We've dealt with him many times, but because he's benefited from it and tasted the sweetness, it's hard to completely eliminate him."
"Then just kill them."
Lin Yuan spoke casually.
A water mirror appeared out of thin air in front of the three of them.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Lin Yuan caused the image in the water mirror to flash by quickly until it settled on a person.
As a deity, finding one's relatives is incredibly easy.
With just a thought, he could find everyone related to him by blood.
Even if they are not one's own descendants, as long as they are related to one, they are relatives.
"What about this person?"
Although he could calculate it himself, he still wanted to hear other people's opinions.
"This person is named Lin Ye. He is an anomaly in the Lin family. He was not blinded by the so-called immortal in the family. Instead, he is very diligent and a good person. He is a breath of fresh air in the Lin family."
Jiang Rushi sighed.
After all, someone like that would really be considered an oddity in the Lin family.
Most of the others were eager to associate themselves with Lin Yuan, and some even insisted that they were Lin Yuan's illegitimate children.
That's truly shameless!
"Lin Feng, the current head of the Lin family, after your ascension, the Lin family relatives behaved themselves for a while. In addition, the mortal realm needed a lot of rest, and everyone was busy with work and had no time to pay attention to these trivial matters. This gave them the opportunity to secretly start spreading rumors that they were your only relative, and they actually deceived some people."
"Because they obtained resources and benefits from these people, the Lin family grew from obscurity into one of the major families it is today. Lin Feng was spoiled by all his elders and became lawless. He ordered others to do everything, and now that the people above are divided into two factions with differing opinions, the Lin family has survived until now."
Jiang Rushi and Ding Yun exchanged a glance, both filled with guilt.
After all, their current status and position have long surpassed that of ordinary people, but because their cultivation is too high, they can no longer get involved in karma casually. This concern has allowed the Lin family to grow even stronger.
"Lin Zhang claims to be your...your illegitimate son. His mother, Lin Siyuan, made up a reason, saying that her name was chosen to express her longing for you. She also fabricated many rumors about you and paid people to spread them everywhere. We have tried to crack down on it, but no one believes it unless the person himself clarifies it."
After all, it's human nature to love excitement.
Lin Yuan is indeed a benefactor of mankind, but nowadays we have been living good days for too long. Those who experienced hardship in the past, except for cultivators, are all gone. Why would they care about these things?
“Lin An’an…”
The two wanted to continue their report, but Lin Yuan waved them off.
“I understand what you’re saying. This is to resolve these issues. Since the Lin family doesn’t remember, let them recall their past fears. I understand your fear of karma, and I don’t need your help. After all, I’ll handle my own affairs.”
He wasn't saying this out of anger or resentment, but rather because after becoming a god, he had a much clearer understanding of these things, and they weren't as complicated as mortals thought.
Power is the only thing to be wary of, but now that he is the master of all realms, who can be stronger than him?
"Do you wish to see Lin Qi and Lin Lin?"
After saying so much, I'm only bringing up the twins now, not because I think they're not good enough, but because they're so good enough that I'm a little obsessed with them.
Jiang Rushi felt somewhat helpless thinking about the two of them's stubbornness.
"No need, they will come to see me if they want to. I'll stay next door to you for the time being."
Lin Yuan originally wanted to stay at their house, but considering the current relationship between the two, he changed his destination at the last minute.
