Chapter 19: You All Saw It, She Insisted on Giving Everything for Free!

Lin Family,

Fei Xian Palace.

“Fuse with the Zhe (Resistance) Secret!”

As soon as Lin Ao Tian’s voice fell.

Buzz—!

A sound of the great Dao resonated around him.

This sound was ancient and sacred.

Completely different from the aura of the Battle and Movement secrets fused before.

The Dao sound of the Zhe Secret resembled Buddhist chants.

Next.

Beneath his feet, pure white lotuses bloomed, each exuding a holy aura.

Within his double pupils, a sacred white lotus rotated.

And on the vast golden spiritual sea within his body, floated two ancient and mysterious characters.

Dou (Battle), Xing (Movement).

The next moment.

An invisible pen seemed to emerge in this spiritual sea space, arduously inscribing the character “Zhe.”

Aligning with the other two characters!

Boom!

The three characters each occupied a corner, forming a tripartite balance.

“Now the Nine Secrets, I’ve acquired three, only six left. I should be able to collect more chives soon…”

Lin Ao Tian, feeling the transformation within himself, muttered with satisfaction.

He knew better than anyone the importance of the Nine Secrets in the world.

The Dou Secret, ultimate combat method, victorious in battle, capable of simulating any attack. First in offense, it evolves various divine killing arts, ever-changing. The Jiang family’s heritage divine art is derived from the Dou Secret.

The Xing Secret, the fastest in speed, at the extreme realm can even pause time.

And the Zhe Secret, a healing method, able to instantly restore unless dead.

“Now I possess speed, attack, and recovery…”

Lin Ao Tian shifted his gaze to his white robe, within which lay an unseen celestial armor.

“For defense, I have celestial armor. If I could draw the Jie (All) Secret, that would be perfect…”

Lin Ao Tian calmly muttered to himself.

He was well aware of his role; according to the plot and system hints, he was always a villain.

Although the plot showed some changes and reversals, he wasn’t about to rely on unknown possibilities.

Only by strengthening himself could he remain above all!

Moreover, as the plot accelerated, he understood how formidable the characters appearing later would be.

With this in mind, Lin Ao Tian silently recited.

“System, draw a prize!”

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining: one of the Nine Secrets, the Jie (All) Secret!]

Lin Ao Tian’s eyes glimmered with excitement.

Great!

Just when he felt sleepy, someone delivered a pillow!

Lin Ao Tian couldn’t help but want to praise the system!

The Jie Secret could instantly increase combat power tenfold, multiplying strength nine times. Paired with the Dou Secret, his combat strength would soar more than tenfold!

At this moment.

“Empire’s Son?”

“How’s your cultivation going?”

From outside Fei Xian Palace, Lin Zhan’s voice sounded somewhat envious. (tln : Family Head Lin Zhan)

Hmm?

Lin Ao Tian frowned slightly.

What’s this old guy doing looking for me in the dead of night?

Nonetheless, he got up and pushed the door open.

Outside Fei Xian Palace.

Lin Zhan stood smiling, his cheeks rosy, looking a few years younger.

These days, due to Lin Ao Tian, many eternal families had come to congratulate, a stark contrast to the Lin family’s past years.

Behind him stood two young people.

The girl wore a purple dress, around seventeen or eighteen, with delicate brows and spirited eyes.

Her purple eyes glowed with natural beauty, a shallow smile accompanied by dimples, she was stunning, like a nimble and lively elf under the moonlight.

Beside her, the young man was handsome, a hint of nervous expectation on his face.

It was Ji Yue’er and Ji Bo.

She had refused her idiot cousin’s request a thousand times.

But he insisted on tagging along with her.

Suddenly.

A figure in white appeared.

In the moonlight, his features appeared even more handsome and remarkable.

“Brother Ao Tian!”

Ji Yue’er excitedly rushed forward upon seeing him, calling out with infatuation.

Lin Ao Tian paused, puzzled.

“What are you here for?”

Is it to bring more sacred medicine again?

I haven’t even used up the previous batch!

Lin Ao Tian intended to save those sacred medicines, to consume them in one burst after igniting the divine fire, stepping into the true realm.

“Hoho, this girl Yue’er insisted on seeing you, and the Ji family specially notified the ancestor, so I brought her over.”

Lin Zhan explained with a smile for Ji Yue’er.

Then, he secretly transmitted his voice.

“Empire’s Son, Ji Yue’er wants to cultivate in Fei Xian Palace for a month, and the ancestor agreed. Moreover, the ancestor said, the Ji family, being vast, let you take advantage if you can, thus strengthening our Lin family.”

“The Lin family is already yours!”

Saying this, a long list appeared in Lin Ao Tian’s mind.

The treasures and spirit stones were staggering in number!

Probably equivalent to the Lin family’s annual income.

“Hehe, these are the gifts from the Ji family, all stored in this space ring.”

Suddenly, a valuable ring appeared in Lin Ao Tian’s hand.

“…”

He twitched slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Lin Ao Tian instinctively glanced at Ji Yue’er beside him, who now appeared pitifully at him, as if she’d cry if he didn’t agree.

This damn…

What the heck!

Free gift plus extra benefits?

“Sigh, forget it, you all saw it, she’s the one offering for free, it’s not that I want it!”

Lin Ao Tian helplessly nodded and turned to enter Fei Xian Palace.

Having fused three secrets, he became more sensitive to the great Dao of heaven and earth, naturally noticing more than one pair of eyes watching.

Apart from Ji Daotian and Lin Yindao, he couldn’t think of anyone else it could be.

Ji Daotian might feel embarrassed…

After all, his family’s precious pearl, handed over freely, was a hard face-saving matter for anyone.

After all, he’s the elder who beheaded a great figure, the Ji family’s ancestor.

Indeed!

Just as Lin Ao Tian thought.

At that moment, in a separate courtyard beside Lin’s Fei Xian Palace.

Two elderly figures sat opposite each other, a pot of warm tea on the stone table.

Aside from Ji family ancestor Ji Daotian and Lin family ancestor Lin Yindao, who else could it be!

At that moment, Ji Daotian said grimly, “That brat, what’s that expression, infuriates this old man!”

“Where is my Ji family’s precious jewel undeserving of him!”

Across from him, Lin Yindao appeared nonchalant.

“Old Ji, stay calm!”

Ji Daotian raged, “Old Lin ghost, if you keep calling me that, I won’t let you off!”

Lin Yindao poured himself a cup of tea, puzzled.

“Huh?”

“I remember your Ji family seems to like that title, supposedly because Ji Tianming’s practice of divine powers affected him…”

“Otherwise, why would that boy have such a name, or could it be that I guessed wrong?”

Ji Daotian knew who Lin Yindao referred to, his face somber.

“So what?”

“Want an award?”

Lin Yindao chuckled.

“Rest assured, with Yue’er joining our Lin family, you needn’t worry about such issues!”

Then, Lin Yindao raised a brow, his expression serious, “The men of our old Lin family, in one word: fierce!”

凸(艹皿艹)凸……

Ji Daotian’s face darkened, unwilling to engage with this shameless old rogue.
