Chapter 418 Return to Tianhuang
Tianhuang Continent, South China Sea Academy.

Lin Ya, dressed in her academy uniform, asked the somewhat dark-skinned boy in front of her with concern, "The time that Cloud Peak and the family head agreed on is almost here. Has the family head contacted you?"

The boy opposite her was none other than Lin Long, who had once had some feelings for Lin Zhao, and he was now wearing the uniform of the South China Sea Academy.

Since the Lin family moved, they have received more resources, and the strength of these disciples, who were already quite talented, has increased significantly. Several of them have entered the South China Sea Academy, which they never dared to dream of before. Those who did not enter the South China Sea Academy have been recruited by various forces.

Although the Lin family no longer resides in the traditional aristocratic area, they are now showing signs of being able to rival the Ji family, currently the most powerful family in the land.

This level of strength even surpasses the Lin family's peak at that time.

All of this is because of Lin Zhao, the current head of the Lin family.

He entered the South China Sea, became the new king, led the Tianhuang Continent to crush the ambitious prodigies of the subcontinent in the continental competition, and stabilized his position as one of the three supreme beings of the South China Sea...

After that, it is said that he entered the Ancestral Phoenix Plane and became the young master of a first-class power in the Ancestral Phoenix Plane.

If Ji Wantang was once a legendary myth to these young men and women of the Heavenly Phoenix Realm, then Lin Zhao's rise was like an impossible miracle.

However, the messages that have been coming from the Ancestral Phoenix Plane for the past two years have all told them that this miracle has always existed.

However, while everyone envies the Lin family, only the Lin family and a few informed forces are waiting for one thing.

What Lin Ya is worried about is also what these forces are concerned about.

Thunder Palace, Council Chamber.

The Thunder Palace Master glanced at the time and said, "Isn't the time that Cloud Peak and that girl from the Lin family agreed upon approaching?"

The young man beside him nodded: "A month ago, Yunding sent a letter written in blood to the Lin family's door."

The Thunder Palace Master lowered his eyes, feeling a headache coming on as he thought of Lin Zhao's personality: "That guy probably has someone at the Tribulation Transcending stage protecting him. I haven't been able to find any trace of him all these years. If this girl comes back, she shouldn't be so foolish as to run headfirst into him."

……

In the sacred land of Yaochi, a figure in crescent white stood by the Yaochi Terrace, remaining silent for a long time.

It wasn't until the disciple behind him said with a somewhat somber tone, "It is said that the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable wrote a blood oath a month ago, saying that if Lin Zhao did not arrive by the agreed date, he would directly send her mother's head to the Lin family."

Although the Yaochi Holy Land had a very unpleasant falling out with Lin Zhao's family back then, they were all people of the Tianhuang Continent after all. After the Continental Grand Competition, knowing Lin Zhao's contributions, many people in the Yaochi Holy Land were no longer so hostile towards him. Moreover, the people belonging to Shen Yuhan's lineage had been completely wiped out by the newly appointed Yaochi Holy Lord in recent years. Now, the people of the Yaochi Holy Land really don't have any major grudges with Lin Zhao.

In the cultivation world, strength is paramount, and Lin Zhao's talent and strength are enough to earn their respect.

The crescent-white figure stirred slightly upon hearing this. Chen Xinyue, who had succeeded as the Holy Master of Yaochi, calculated the time: "Three more days..."

Although she understood that Lin Zhao was exceptionally talented, but...

"You shouldn't have impulsively agreed to a challenge against a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. No matter how exceptional your talent is, do you really think you can transform from a Fusion stage cultivator into a Nascent Soul stage cultivator within three years?"

As she spoke, Chen Xinyue herself found it absurd and shook her head: "Let's keep an eye on what's happening over there."

Given Lin Zhao's personality, she would never allow anything to go wrong with her birth mother.

However... this is not something that can be determined by her personality here.

……

Lin Zhao arrived at the Tianhuang Continent late at night, and after realizing where she was, she found it somewhat amusing.

"Is this the place that drove our Lin family out?"

Looking at the words "Land of a Noble Family" engraved on the stone tablet not far away, Lin Zhao smiled and looked around to confirm his location. He was about to leave when he unexpectedly met someone's gaze.

The young man had a blood-red longsword at his waist and was holding the hand of a little girl who looked like a snowball.

"Lin Zhao?" Ji Xiao was now a mid-stage Fusion Realm expert, so night vision was no problem for him. However, after seeing the girl appear in the sky, he rubbed his eyes, unable to believe his own eyes as a Fusion Realm cultivator for the first time.

Lin Zhao and the two elders of Fengyun exchanged some information and their Tian Tong accounts before landing in front of Ji Xiao. She glanced at the little girl beside Ji Xiao and took out a luminous pearl filled with spiritual energy from her ring, handing it to the girl.

"I can't believe your daughter has grown up so much in just three years."

Ji Xiao glanced at the niece his sister had entrusted to him, wanting to explain something, but Lin Zhao had already patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "It's been three years, you've become quite capable."

When Ji Xiao was teased like that, he forgot to explain that Ji Xingmian was not his daughter, and hurriedly said, "You're still teasing me? Do you know that you won't see your mother for another three days?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao's eyes flashed with murderous intent. After learning what had happened from Ji Xiao, he took out a jade bottle from his ring and gave it to him.

"A gift to mark our meeting after so many years. Goodbye."

The next moment, she disappeared from Ji Xiao's sight, leaving only the little girl beside him, who was holding a luminous pearl and gnawing on dried meat.

"Hey, hey, where did you get your jerky?"

"Given by the pretty older sister."

"Do you even know who she is? You call her 'pretty sister'?!"

"I know, Lin Zhao, the one who shattered Mother's body."

"Then why did you eat the food she gave you?"

"If my mother were here, she would definitely support me."

Ji Xiao remained silent for a long time before reporting the matter to the people at Tian Tong Jing. They quickly responded with three words.

—Let her eat
"Your mother only entrusted you to me to raise because your father spoiled you! I haven't even held a girl's hand yet, and now I have to raise you."

“You like Sister Lin Zhao, but she doesn’t like you, so you’ll probably never be able to hold a girl’s hand in your life. Why don’t you raise me and take care of me in your old age?”

"What nonsense are you spouting?! She and your mother are sworn enemies, how could I possibly like my sister's sworn enemy?!"

……

Looking at the elders of the Lin family who had gathered together in the middle of the night because of his return, Lin Zhao said with some guilt, "The Lin family has benefited greatly from you all over the years."

The First Elder sighed, "We're all family, why be so formal? But... what about the Patriarch's cultivation level?"

Lin Zhao was taken aback: "Hasn't your family been keeping track of the news from the Ancestral Phoenix Plane these past few days?"

The Second Elder explained, "There is a time difference between the information on the Heavenly Mirror of the Ancestral Phoenix Plane and the Heavenly Phoenix Plane, about three months. We only know that you are now in the Nascent Soul stage and are the young master of a first-class sect... But even a Nascent Soul stage cultivator is no match for the Cloud Peak."

His gaze unconsciously fell on the two elders, Fengyun and Fengs, sitting beside Lin Zhao. He hurriedly asked ingratiatingly, "You two must be experts above the late Nascent Soul stage of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, right? The Lin family may have to rely on you two this time."

The two elders, Feng and Yun, had somewhat strange expressions. After a long while, Elder Feng smiled and explained, "His Majesty is now at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Although I don't know what level of Nascent Soul realm the Cloud Peak you mentioned is at, even an ordinary Nascent Soul Grand Perfection cultivator might not be able to defeat His Majesty at the mid-stage. Elders, you are overthinking it. As for the two of us, we are sufficient to protect His Majesty."

Second Elder: "???"

Other high-ranking members of the Lin family: "?"

They could understand what the old man said individually, but when put together, they couldn't quite grasp it.

It was the Third Elder who finally reacted, looking at Lin Zhao, then at the two elders of Fengyun, and asked in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty?"

Lin Zhao nodded: "The reason I came back this time, besides rescuing my mother, is to bring my family to the Ancestral Phoenix Plane and make them the royal family of the Ancestral Phoenix Empire."

The Lin family's eldest elder stammered, "So, what the family head means is that you, you are now the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor?"

It should be noted that the family that can be called the royal family of the Ancestral Phoenix Empire is the family of the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor.

Ji Xiao doesn't like Lin Zhao (the two families are so opposed, if I write that he falls in love, then his character will be ruined). I don't plan to pair him up with anyone. Let him be a sister-obsessed dad and a stay-at-home dad.
