Chapter 105 Bad News

Despite Gong Jue's politeness, Lin Zhao could not help but thank him.

"If you don't mind, senior, this is a Qi-restoring pill that can restore the spiritual energy of a Golden Core cultivator."

Taking the pill bottle from Lin Zhao, Gong Jue smiled and patted her head: "Work hard and strive to advance to the Golden Core stage before the Continental Grand Competition. Then we'll fight side by side."

After Gong Jue left, Lin Zhao looked around, but not a single senior student dared to meet her gaze.

A newly enrolled student defeated one of their above-average fighters.

This is extremely rare in the history of South China Sea Academy, especially with a skilled person like Gong Jue helping her. If these senior students had any thoughts of taking advantage and gaining points before, they are now completely obedient.

Before Lin Zhao could find her dormitory as instructed by Teacher Hanyan on the Tiantong Mirror, Yang Huihui, an acquaintance of hers from the Youlan Empire, rushed over anxiously.

"Sister Zhao Zhao, someone from the Lin family has come looking for us, saying it's related to your mother!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao retrieved the Heavenly Mirror and headed towards Yang Huihui's location.

"Please lead the way, Huihui."

Lin Zhao summoned the Heavenly Phoenix Bone Sword and brought Yang Huihui onto it.

Within moments, Yang Huihui was nestled in Lin Zhao's arms, somewhat dazed. Sensing the familiar, faint fragrance emanating from Lin Zhao's embrace, she felt as if she had returned to the scene from her childhood when she was being chased by demons and Lin Zhao descended from the sky to save her. Her eyes reddened slightly.

However, it was only a fleeting memory. After all the turmoil that had happened, she was very clear about the extent of the gap between herself and Lin Zhao. Someone like Lin Zhao was beyond her reach, no matter how talented she was.

In gratitude for her kindness back then, all she could do was ask her family to help the Lin family repay it.

It was precisely because of her instructions to her family that she was able to receive the Lin family's message so quickly. She pointed to the east gate and said, "Over there."

A flash of blue light appeared beneath Lin Zhao's feet, and the two arrived at the main gate in the short time it takes to drink a cup of tea. Seeing Lin Ya looking dejected at the gate, Lin Zhao dismounted.

After thanking Yang Huihui, Lin Ya gave the senior students at the gate extra spirit stones, and they turned a blind eye and let her in.

"Sister Ya Ya, what happened to Mother? Is anything wrong with the rest of the family?"

Lin Ya shook her head: "The family is doing well. They have basically moved to the South Sea City during this period. With the help of the Youlan Royal Family and the Fire Cloud Alliance, they have quickly settled down here. However, when the South Sea Academy helped us find the Mistress, Yaochi Holy Temple said that the Mistress had been taken away by the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable!"

Genting Old Dog!

Lin Zhao's vision blurred, and Lin Ya quickly supported her: "The Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable has done such a thing that the Myriad Swords Sect has also kicked him out. Originally, the South Sea Academy could have helped us capture him, but he sent this to our Lin family."

A small parchment scroll appeared in Lin Ya's hand. This parchment scroll was clearly the work of a Nascent Soul stage expert, and only those designated by him could see the words inside.

This tactic was also to prevent the South China Sea Academy from locating his hiding place; the old dog from the Cloud Top certainly knew how to hide.

Lin Zhao took the parchment scroll and saw the words written in spiritual blood on it.

[I only see Lin Zhao. If anyone else deliberately comes looking for me, that woman will surely die!]

The Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable is threatening her mother's life!
"Good, very good!" Lin Zhao gripped the parchment scroll tightly, her beautiful eyes gleaming with blue flames, her lips stiffly curving into a smile, and veins bulging on her forehead.

Without hesitation, she broke open her palm and used her spiritual blood to write her answer to the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable.

Five years later, a battle will rage in the sacred land of Yaochi. Will Cloud Peak dare to challenge them?

Soon, the answer from the Cloud Peak Immortal appeared on the parchment scroll.

"If you don't go to the Jade Pool Holy Land alone three years from now, then you can expect to collect your mother's corpse." Three years? She's only just begun the process of enlightenment now. How can she possibly rescue her mother from a Nascent Soul cultivator in three years?! This Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable is clearly sending her to her death!

"Zhao Zhao!"

Lin Ya had never seen Lin Zhao's face look so grim. Even after being humiliated by Shen Yuhan and Chen Luoluo's wedding at Cloud Peak and returning to her family, the girl in front of her was still calm and composed. But now, Lin Zhao gave her an unstable feeling that she might explode at any moment.

"The patriarch asked me to bring this to you; it has also been approved by the elders and the ancestor."

Lin Zhao's pupils contracted when he saw the family head ring on Lin Ya's hand.

"After the incident at Yaochi Holy Land, the patriarch requested to go into seclusion. Before his seclusion, he passed the position of patriarch to you. The Lin family's resources will unconditionally favor the patriarch. So Zhaozhao, you are no longer the young master of the Lin family, you are the patriarch of the Lin family, and our Lin family will unconditionally support you!"

Lin Ya grasped her shoulders: "No matter what, the Lin family will always be your support!"

Lin Zhao held the family head's ring, knowing very well what was inside. Inside the ring was a crystal, and all the Lin family's profits over the years would be transferred here. The ring also contained thousands of cubic meters of space, filled with the family's rare treasures accumulated over the years.

"How can someone like me, who has been away from the family for so long, accept the patriarch's ring?" Lin Zhao smiled wryly. "I appreciate the family's kindness."

Lin Ya told her the elders' original words: "Grandpa said that with the help of the South China Sea Academy, the Youlan Empire, and the Fire Cloud Alliance, it won't be difficult for our Lin family to accumulate these things. Zhao Zhao, the family can't be carried by you alone. These days, quite a few of us younger generation have broken through to the Enlightenment stage while we've been around the South China Sea. When the time comes, suitable disciples will participate in the next recruitment of the three giants."

The Lin family members are no less talented than those from other aristocratic families; it's just that their resources and environment have been greatly diminished in recent years, leading to their temporary decline.

Now, with the help of an empire and a first-class sect in a deal, as well as the assistance of the giant South China Sea Academy, it's only a matter of time before the Lin family returns to the ranks of powerful clans.

In the past, the direct descendants of the Lin family only dared to call themselves members of the Lin family and did not dare to claim the title of a prestigious family, because they understood that their status as a prestigious family would be replaced sooner or later if there was no successor. But now, the Lin family has the hope of competing with other middle-class prestigious families.

All this hope was brought about by Lin Zhao.

"Zhaozhao, I'm saying all this so you understand that you are the Lin family's greatest hope. If you were here, the Lin family might even surpass the Ji family. But if your resolve wavers, the Lin family will only fall into an even more tragic situation than before. Therefore, only you are worthy of this ring!"

This time, Lin Zhao didn't speak; she gripped the ring tightly in her hand.

Three years later... Late Nascent Soul stage!
"Tell the family that I, Lin Zhao, will accept this ring. Three years from now, I will definitely bring my mother and Yun Ding's head back to the Lin family."

Lin Ya noticed that the girl's slender figure trembled slightly when she said those words, and her eyes also reddened.

No matter what, the girl in front of him was four years younger than him, yet she had to shoulder one heavy burden after another, swallowing all the responsibilities and pain alone.

She never told anyone about the pressure she was under, but Lin Ya understood how harsh it was for her.

Ultimately, it was because the rest of the Lin family were too weak. Apart from the patriarch, they could only survive by relying on the benefits brought by Lin Zhao.

"Patriarch, it won't be long. Everyone in the family is eager to avenge the Yaochi Holy Land."

It was also to avenge Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao didn't say much. After calming herself down, she patted Lin Ya's shoulder and said, "It's good that the rest of the family is alright. Now that I am the head of the family, and the root of this hatred is because of me, I will take care of it."

Seeing Lin Zhao regain her usual composure and confidence, Lin Ya choked up for a moment, but couldn't say anything else.

After seeing Lin Ya off, Lin Zhao remained silent for a moment, then asked Granny Honghu in his mind, "Master, I can endure even more hardship in my cultivation. As long as I can reach the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm in three years, I'm willing to do anything!"

Grandma Honghu sighed at the unfortunate fate of her disciple: "It's not impossible for you to break through so quickly, but you must reclaim all your Phoenix Luck before you can break through to the Nascent Soul stage before you turn twenty."

All of Phoenix Luck?
Then we must go find Ji Wantang.
