Chapter 769: 769 Lin Shiyuan’s True Identity [1 more update]
What do you an… not Lin Shiyuan?
Could it be…
Rong Jingqiu had a sudden realization: “Could it be that she also experienced sothing like what happened to Miss Ye?”
“What matter?” Patriarch Xiang asked in confusion, “Has Shiyuan been possessed?”
He had watched Lin Shiyuan grow up, from a young age, Lin Shiyuan had shown unparalleled talent and ability.
In this world, not everyone can gather inner strength, and among those who can, not all are born with complete inner strength.
Out of ten thousand inner strength practitioners, there is barely one genius.
And Lin Shiyuan was such a genius.
At her birth, Lin Family elders confird she had an exceptionally rare gift for inner strength.
This made the Lin Family overjoyed.
Throughout Jianghu’s history, those recognized for their innate inner strength, unless they died prematurely, have all risen to the pinnacle of complete inner power.
Lin Shiyuan was the Lin Family’s hope for three hundred years and the hope of Shenzhou.
But rethink it now, Patriarch Xiang thought, even for a gifted inner strength person, at such an age shouldn’t have such formidable inner strength.
“It’s possession, but not possession.” Ye Wanlan said calmly, “The Lin Shiyuan you both saw growing up is the very Lin Shiyuan now.”
She was speaking while continuing to treat Su Yingxia.
Rong Jingqiu and Patriarch Xiang were even more perplexed, they looked at each other.
Ye Wanlan asked again, “Do you know who the first ancestor of the Lin Family was?”
“Certainly.” Patriarch Xiang nodded, “My Xiang’s was established by a branch of the Xiang Imperial Family and Xiang Tiange, while the Lin Family was founded by Lin Baiwei, the seventh master of the Heavenly Sound Sect, as the legitimate lineage.”
During the battle to guard Fengyuan, thousands of disciples from Heavenly Sound Sect almost all perished.
The senior master Lin Wanci died protecting Sect Leader Lin Fanyin from a barrage of arrows.
The remaining five masters also perished in battle, leaving only the seventh master Lin Baiwei.
She led the families of the Heavenly Sound sect’s disciples and the remnants of several other sects to Yunjing and established the Lin Family.
However, Lin Baiwei also suffered fatal injuries in the battle for guarding Fengyuan, dying before reaching fifty.
Rong Jingqiu wasn’t foolish; hearing Ye Wanlan’s question, he blurted out: “Do you an that Lin Shiyuan is actually Lin Baiwei from that ti?!”
“Not only is she Lin Baiwei from that ti.” Ye Wanlan spoke with a calm tone, revealing an earth-shattering truth, “Each generation’s genius of the Lin Family is essentially Lin Baiwei.”
Patriarch Xiang’s eyes widened, he couldn’t help but gasp: “How… how is this possible?!”
Even with possession, this couldn’t be accomplished!
“It’s just that these geniuses couldn’t withstand Lin Baiwei’s power or cultivation thod, leading to their premature deaths before the age of thirty.” Ye Wanlan said calmly, “The only one who escaped her clutches was my grandmother.”
This was another matter Lin Weilan told her before she passed.
Lin Weilan said that the Lin Family head of her generation always looked at her with strange eyes, a gaze that neither contained hatred nor appreciation, hard to fathom.
Lin Weilan also said that the developnt of the Lin Family over the years wasn’t good, accounting for the loss of many geniuses before her, a great pity.
Ye Wanlan had been vigilant early on, starting to collect all useful intelligence.
Finally, after seeing Lin Shiyuan today, she confird this fact—
Lin Shiyuan was indeed the Lin Family’s first ancestor, Lin Baiwei.
Ye Wanlan also deduced that Lin Weilan was originally selected as a vessel by Lin Baiwei.
But sohow, Lin Baiwei wasn’t able to succeed in possessing Lin Weilan.
If possession isn’t achieved at birth, capturing the newly arrived soul would be impossible later.
Yet fate seed favorable to Lin Baiwei because although she lost one Lin Weilan, another Lin Shiyuan appeared.
Lin Shiyuan’s body was stronger than any previous genius, perfectly able to withstand her power.
Three hundred years of plotting finally ca to fruition.
Now, Lin Baiwei possesses more than three hundred years of inner strength cultivation, a force that even Patriarch Xiang cannot contend against.
Rong Jingqiu and Patriarch Xiang stood still, unable to return to their senses for a long ti.
Ti passed, until Ye Wanlan spoke again: “It’s done.”
The Life and Death Needle was originally ant to snatch souls from King Yama’s grasp.
After a mont, Su Yingxia softly awakened.
“Wife!” Rong Jingqiu imdiately rushed to the bedside, “Wife, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?”
“I…” Su Yingxia was also bewildered; she darted her eyes around, finally seeing a familiar face, “Wanlan?!”
“Aunt Su, you need to rest.” Ye Wanlan said, “Lin Shiyuan won’t trouble you anymore.”
“Lin Shiyuan, she…” Su Yingxia’s head hurt, “What exactly happened?”
Rong Jingqiu softly recounted Ye Wanlan’s speculations to her.
Su Yingxia was astonished: “It’s actually so?”
“If we face Lin Baiwei, we’ll likely have no power to resist.” Patriarch Xiang took a deep breath, “Though each noble family has its trump card, my Xiang family’s ancestor only cultivated for no more than two hundred years. The gap is too vast!”
“Lin Baiwei carries a magical treasure that can shield from heavenly chanisms. Her cultivation far exceeds that of anyone in the Rong Family, no wonder the Supre Elder never sensed it.” Rong Jingqiu said gravely, “She’s been plotting for three hundred years, truly scheming beyond asure!”
Ye Wanlan fed Su Yingxia another pill before standing up, “Uncle Rong, Uncle Xiang, rest here. I’ll take care of the matter next.”
“Wait!” Patriarch Xiang was anxious, “Miss Ye, you mustn’t act recklessly; it’s Lin Baiwei, even if the four families jointly effort…”
Unlike Su Family’s situation, although Su Han Yan and Lin Baiwei were people of the sa era, Su focused on Taiyi dical Skills, not martial arts.
Lin Shiyuan had always claid she only practiced the Heavenly Music thod to the Eighth Level, which was surely false!
Now, no one knows her true strength.
“The Heavenly Sound Sect ranked seventh, took actions only after the senior masters and sect leader were gone.” Ye Wanlan opened the door and her figure quickly disappeared.
Before leaving, she used Penglai Magic to safeguard the room.
Confronting Lin Baiwei was already a troubleso matter.
But for Ye Wanlan, more important was ensuring the safety of all innocents.
Lin Baiwei used her family’s geniuses as nourishnt, how could she care about the lives of the other four families?
Ye Wanlan returned to the hall where all of Lin Family’s high-ranking and core mbers were present.
“You’re back?” Lin Shiyuan glanced at her, “I’ve agreed to the two conditions you proposed; you can even propose a third condition, but you must do what I ask next.”
She set down her teacup: “I am not soone who relishes death, go convince the Su and Rong families, but the Huo family is too obstinate. I’ll give them three days; after that, anyone in the Huo family who defies us will be dead.”
Ye Wanlan raised her head: “Is forcing the Six Great Sects to submit the outco you desire?”
“Force?” Lin Shiyuan sneered coldly, “The able stand above; I am stronger, they should heed .”
Ye Wanlan quietly scanned the Lin Family mbers: “Do you all also think she is right?”
Every Lin Family mber lowered their heads, none dared et her gaze.
Under Lin Shiyuan’s coercion, what choice did they have?
Anyone who previously voiced dissent was killed.
“Ye Wanlan, I value your strength and strategy, repeatedly making concessions, granting benefits…” Lin Shiyuan slowly stood up, “Yet you remain stubborn, speaking this rebellious nonsense.”
Her patience had reached its limit.
No matter how strong Ye Wanlan was, she wouldn’t be left today.
“It’s no wonder you can never rival Lin Fanyin, nor even compare to Princess Yongning.” Ye Wanlan slowly raised her head, “Lin Baiwei.”
