🕑 Added 2024-11-08 12:57:19 +0000 UTCEmperor Lin made his move with swift precision, and in an instant, Yun Lianbu had completely vanished from this world. Lin Qian looked at his father in astonishment.
Originally, when his father stopped him, Lin Qian thought that Emperor Lin was acting out of mercy, intending to spare Yun Lianbu, an old acquaintance.
However, since it was his father’s decision, Lin Qian naturally respected it. He had already planned to have Yun Lianbu secretly killed after she left. No matter what, Lin Qian could never let someone who had tried every possible means to harm his mother go free.
But now, Lin Qian realized that he had completely misunderstood his father. Emperor Lin had never intended to spare Yun Lianbu—instead, he had dealt with her personally.
Lin Qian could clearly see the deep disgust in his father’s eyes toward Yun Lianbu, all stemming from what she had done to his mother, Yun Yunyan.
"Qian’er, remember your father’s words," Emperor Lin said, turning to Lin Qian. "For people like her, if they ever pose a threat to those around you, show no mercy. Eliminate them, no matter who they are."
"When dealing with enemies, you must be decisive and ruthless. Your current plan to wipe out the Yun family within the Valley of Myriad Herbs and Trees is exactly the right approach."
After hearing his father’s words, Lin Qian nodded slightly. He had been adhering to this principle all along—treating his own people kindly was fine, but when it came to enemies, there was no room for leniency. The actions had to be swift, precise, and ruthless!
Yun Yunyan walked up to Emperor Lin, interlacing her fingers with his, gently leaning on her husband’s shoulder.
"Back then, I promised to take good care of you for a lifetime and never let you suffer any grievance." Emperor Lin spoke softly to Yun Yunyan, his tone still carrying a hint of anger. "I never expected Yun Lianbu to be such a person. She deserved her death."
"Yes, I’m so grateful to have met you, Lin," Yun Yunyan replied softly, resting her head on Emperor Lin’s shoulder.
Not far away, Lin Qian covered his face, helplessly walking away. Watching his parents display their affection in front of him was simply too much to handle.
Approaching the formation that had been set up, Lin Qian continued to monitor the progress. Although most of the preparations had been completed, there was still a small part that required careful attention.
Even though this type of tool could be used in this world, it was clearly much more complicated and required meticulous preparation in many areas.
Moments later, Emperor Lin and Yun Yunyan joined Lin Qian, standing by his side, looking at everything before them.
Both the realistic, illusionary map and the complex, intricate formation deeply impressed the couple. But what astonished them even more were the people who were working for Lin Qian.
Their son had become their emperor.
What had happened to their son over these years to cause such an earth-shattering transformation?
Lin Qian had already prepared an explanation for his parents' curiosity: "Father, Mother, I once stumbled upon a ruin and received the inheritance of a vast empire—this is the Huaxia Empire. Naturally, I became the emperor of this empire, calling myself ‘Zhen,’ higher than the Human Emperor and mightier than the Great Emperor."
"After receiving the inheritance, my martial soul fully awakened, and I gained two martial souls: the Thunder Night Sword and the Cloud Sword."
Hearing Lin Qian’s explanation, Emperor Lin and Yun Yunyan fully believed him. In this world, strange and wondrous things were abundant. Ruins of all kinds existed, and inheriting an empire wasn’t particularly unusual.
They were just relieved and grateful that their son had such an extraordinary fortune, leading to the powerful position he held today.
Beyond the initial shock, both Emperor Lin and Yun Yunyan found the situation more fascinating than anything else, especially the virtual map of the Extreme Cold Zone. It amused them to see the marked movements of the Yun family members pursuing them, clearly displayed on the map.
No wonder their journey to this place had been smooth and trouble-free—they hadn’t encountered a single member of the Yun family. The reason was clearly this virtual map in front of them.
What truly caught Emperor Lin’s attention was the object floating in the center of the large formation. It looked somewhat like a soul artifact, yet not quite the same.
Upon closer inspection, it resembled a kind of platform, radiating various different energies and connected to the formation within the ice cave, as if constantly being activated.
"What is this object? Is this the key to wiping out the Yun family?" Emperor Lin asked, his gaze fixed on the object before him. It seemed to be the very center of the entire formation.
Since Lin Qian had declared his intention to wipe out the entire Yun family in the Extreme Cold Zone, he must have had some reliance to make such a bold claim. Clearly, this object was the key to achieving that goal.
At this moment, the Yun family members in the Extreme Cold Zone were gradually closing in on Lin Qian’s location, and in their hands were a series of tokens.
These tokens contained information that clearly indicated Lin Qian’s location—essentially serving as tracking devices.
The tokens had fallen into the Yun family’s hands after they killed some hidden observers who had been spying on them.
Yun Yunyan also noticed something unusual, as she saw that the Yun family members marked on the virtual map were rapidly converging on their location.
"It’s almost time!" Lin Qian said with a smile, looking at the virtual map as he spoke to Yun Yunyan. "Mother, don’t worry. I have everything under control. Please take this."
Hearing her son’s words, Yun Yunyan curiously accepted the item Lin Qian handed her. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was a token.
Not only that, but Lin Qian also handed a similar token to his father, Emperor Lin.
After receiving the token, Emperor Lin curiously examined it, trying to understand what it was.
After a moment of inspection, he realized that the token’s function was simple: it allowed him to know exactly where he was, like a guiding tool.
"Every member of the Yun family now holds a token like this one. I had these tokens delivered into their hands using a bit of trickery," Lin Qian said with a satisfied smile as he looked at the marked Yun family members on the virtual map. "This little toy is the last one I had. It would be a shame not to make good use of it."
With a smile, Lin Qian turned to his father, Emperor Lin. "For the next part of the ‘search,’ I’ll rely on you to unleash your power, Father."
