Lin Yun had previously warned the six beasts that the people coming down were his family and they should behave.
He hadn't expected these six guys to be so well-behaved.
Their uniform appearance was like younger brothers in a gang welcoming their big brother.
Qing Tan, who was beside them, was also startled.
"Slap!" "Slap!"
Qing Tan directly reached out and slapped Bao Qiang and Bao Zhen on the head.
"Come here and lie down."
She grabbed the two leopards' heads and pulled them over. She had been treating their wounds just now and hadn't finished.
"Gulp gulp gulp..."
Lin Zhentian, Lin Xiao, and the others collectively swallowed their saliva at this scene. Lin Xiao's heart had been in his throat just now.
Those were fierce leopards in the middle stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, yet they were so obedient under Qing Tan's hand.
Lin Ken took a deep breath, calming himself down from the shock.
"Lin Yun, didn't you say they were both injured? They don't look injured at all."
"Also, why are there three more Fire Python Tigers?"
Lin Yun began to explain, "Grandpa, uncles, what I said before was made up. There were too many people around, and it was mainly for outsiders to hear. We'll continue to say that to outsiders in the future."
"As for the truth, it's like this..."
He immediately told them the same story he had told Lin Dong, omitting the existence of the Beast Taming Art and the Alchemy Furnace.
"This is why I've been going out frequently during this time."
After hearing Lin Yun's legendary experience, the elders felt like they were dreaming. They could only say that Lin Yun's luck was too good.
"The next step is how to protect Ironwood Manor and develop the Yang Yuan Stone Mine."
"Occupying Ironwood Manor will definitely completely offend the Lei Family. The Xie Family is also an unavoidable enemy."
"The value of the Yang Yuan Stone Mine goes without saying. I suggest the Lin Family consolidate its strength first, temporarily centering on Ironwood Manor, and move all the family members and their dependents to Ironwood Manor."
"Otherwise, Qingyang Town and Ironwood Manor are half a day's journey apart, and we won't be able to look after them."
...
Lin Yun immediately discussed his well-thought-out plan with Lin Zhentian and the others.
Having witnessed Lin Yun's previous actions, they no longer dared to underestimate Lin Yun and took his opinions seriously.
"We'll do as Yun'er says!" Lin Zhentian immediately made the decision.
Leaving aside the Yang Yuan Stone Mine, the assets of Ironwood Manor alone exceeded the total of most of the Lin Family's assets.
"Lin Ken, Lin Xiao, you lead the teams to move all the Lin Family members over."
"Lin Mang, you lead people to organize Ironwood Manor and quickly prepare to settle the clansmen."
"The mining of the Yang Yuan Stone Mine cannot be neglected either. Let the mining personnel left behind by the Lei Family continue to mine for us."
...
The Lin Family members took action, moving overnight and working in an orderly manner.
Because they acted quickly enough, other forces hadn't reacted yet when the Lin Family had already gathered their personnel and successfully occupied Ironwood Manor.
It wasn't until the next day that the major forces in Qingyang Town learned that the Lin Family had moved into Ironwood Manor, and the transition was incredibly fast.
"Damn it!"
"Shameless Lin Family, taking advantage of the situation."
In the Lei Family, Lei Bao slammed his palm on the table, his face turning pale with anger, and many white hairs appeared on his head.
Three days of continuous bad news had dealt him a heavy blow.
The funeral in Qingyang Town hadn't even been finished, and two more people died in Ironwood Manor. When he woke up today, the Yang Yuan Stone Mine had been occupied by the Lin Family.
"How can the thieving Lin Family be so lucky? They just happened to encounter the Fire Python Tiger and the Black Iron Demon Leopard fighting, and they got Ironwood Manor for free."
"Damn heavens, why are you targeting my Lei Family? Why didn't you let the Lin Family be torn apart by those demonic beasts?"
Lei Bao pointed at the sky and cursed angrily. His Lei Family's luck was too bad.
"Brother Bao, the Lin Family only has four Heavenly Yuan Realm experts. If our two families join forces, we can take it back," Xie Qian advised in a deep voice.
He also coveted the Yang Yuan Stone Mine. The Xie Family had lost two Heavenly Yuan Realm experts, but still had three. Adding Lei Bao, that made four, and both he and Lei Bao were in the late stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, so defeating the Lin Family wouldn't be a problem.
Lei Bao had suffered a series of blows. His eyes were tired and bloodshot, and his gaze was dead.
After a moment of silence, he said, "It's not wise to go and seize Ironwood Manor now. The difference in strength between us and the Lin Family isn't large. If we really fight, even if we win, it's very likely to be a Pyrrhic victory. Moreover, don't forget the Mad Blade Martial Hall. That old fox Luo Cheng won't just sit by and watch."
"Then what do we do? Are we just going to let the Lin Family get away with it?" Xie Qian looked unwilling.
"Let them get away with it? Hmph, they're just going to be happy for a while. My Lei Family's things aren't that easy to occupy," Lei Bao sneered. He became sharp, looked at Xie Qian, and said, "You first send people to keep an eye on the Lin Family and understand their situation. I want to break through to the Core Formation Realm!"
"Break through to the Core Formation Realm?!" Xie Qian's eyes showed shock, and then a smile appeared on his face.
The Core Formation Realm is where true power lies. If one successfully breaks through, dealing with the Heavenly Yuan Realm is as simple as crushing an ant.
Xie Qian narrowed his eyes. "Brother Bao, how confident are you?"
"Seventy percent!"
Lei Bao held up seven fingers.
He had been at the peak of the Heavenly Yuan Realm for many years, vaguely touching the bottleneck of the Core Formation Realm.
Moreover, the Lei Family had accumulated some Yang Yuan Pills over the years, and coupled with the mining of the Yang Yuan Stone Mine this time, although the time was short, they still obtained over a hundred Yang Yuan Stones, all of which were on Lei Bao.
Enough for him to go into seclusion and break through.
As long as he successfully advanced to the Core Formation Realm, everything he had lost, Lei Bao would take back one by one.
Xie Qian smiled. "Good, excellent, Brother Bao. I await your good news."
...
Mad Blade Martial Hall!
"Master, do we still need to send someone to the Lin Family to discuss cooperation? They have already occupied Ironwood Manor," Wu Yun said with a bitter smile.
Luo Cheng took a deep breath and sighed. "Lin Zhentian is still courageous. He dared to attack Ironwood Manor so quickly and actually succeeded. He truly is old but vigorous, I have to admire him."
Their Mad Blade Martial Hall had assessed the situation and originally wanted to cooperate with the Lin Family to occupy Ironwood Manor. Unfortunately, before they could send anyone, the news of the Lin Family occupying Ironwood Manor had already arrived.
"Let's not discuss cooperation. Send someone to congratulate them and see what the situation is with the Lin Family. Lin Zhentian is not a reckless person; they must have some backing to dare to act like this."
"Yes, Master!"
...
The Lin Family successfully occupied Ironwood Manor, and no other forces came out to cause trouble.
The Lei and Xie Families were as if nothing had happened, incredibly quiet.
And the Lin Family was also incredibly low-key. The clansmen were almost all holed up in Ironwood Manor, focusing on planting, logging, mining, and cultivating.
Just like that, over a month passed.
A powerful Origin Power fluctuation erupted from the room where Lin Yun was located.
[Task: Break through to the Heavenly Yuan Realm mid-stage. Reward: Physique +2, Root Bone +2. Completed. Claim?]
"Claim!"
Lin Yun replied happily.
[Physique 25 (One in a hundred) -> Physique 27 (One in a hundred)]
[Root Bone 33 (One in a thousand) -> Root Bone 35 (One in a thousand)]
The attribute energy integrated into his body, and his physique broke through its limit again, with waves of pleasure, incredibly comfortable.
"Origin Power is more than ten times stronger. As expected of Innate Yang Gang Qi," Lin Yun said with emotion, holding a crimson gourd.
Inside was the Innate Yang Gang Qi rewarded by the system, which had unparalleled benefits for cultivation in the Heavenly Yuan Realm.
His ability to break through to the mid-stage so quickly was entirely due to this Qi.
Lin Yun walked out of the room and strolled around the manor.
Before long, he was pulled over by Lin Zhentian to discuss important matters.
After more than a month of mining, the Lin Family had already obtained a batch of Yang Yuan Stones.
It was time to go to the city!
High-end resources like Yang Yuan Stones needed to be traded in Flame City.
And now, for the Lin Family, who would lead the team to Flame City was a very important question.
