Chapter 378 Return the Items

In the past, the entire Lin Family, the collateral branches and the main clan, lived on Mind Cleansing Peak. The North Light Pavilion was the original residence of the North Light Lin Clan.

Similarly, there were residences called West Creek, Cloud Weight and Flying Peak, which belonged to the other three branches.

The North Light Pavilion consisted of rows upon rows of ancient buildings, most of which had been abandoned. But from the scale of it, it was very lively in the past.

When Lin Xun arrived, to his surprise, he saw a group of people rushing towards the North Light Pavilion.

It was the clansmen that Patriarch North Light sent to Mind Cleansing Peak. The majority of them were young, arrogant, and domineering.

Just a few days ago, Blood Thorn had asked Lin Xun to tell them off for trampling on his medicinal garden.

At the time, Lin Xun didnt waste time talking to them and just directly resorted to force. Then, he assigned them to different places on Mind Cleansing Peak to work like servants.

Unexpectedly, they gathered together again and seemed to be very excited about something.

When they saw Lin Xun, someone yelled out loud, Lin Xun, you made us do tasks that only lowly servants do. We must tell Big Brother Xuefeng about it so he can stand up for us and get justice for us!

Yes, you clearly dont treat us as your clansmen!

The young men and women fumed. They felt very ashamed to be sent to Mind Cleansing Peak to work as servants given that they were all members of the Lin Family.

They were afraid of Lin Xuns power and were watched by Xiaoke every day, so they had to endure being servants.

However, it was different today. They had heard that Lin Xuefeng had come to Mind Cleansing Peak. Overjoyed, they quickly gathered together and ran off to find him.

Lin Xun chuckled. These guys need a beating. I told them to work hard, but it hasnt helped with their problems.

Huh? Whats going on?

A figure stepped out of the main hall of the North Light Pavilion. It was Lin Xuefeng.

Big Brother Xuefeng, that guy has gone too far. He doesnt treat us as his clansmen!

We came to Mind Cleansing Peak to do great things, but he made work as lowly servants and sent a vicious woman to watch us. If we refuse to work, they physically punish us! You have to get justice for us!

The young men and women clamored, their faces filled with indignation and humiliation.

However, to their surprise, not only did Lin Xuefeng not stand up for them, his face turned dark and unpleasant.

Kneel!

Before they registered the strange response from Lin Xuefeng, he had already uttered coldly like a clap of thunder. The young men and women all trembled all over and their faces blanched. They couldnt believe what they heard.

Whatsituation is this?

Someone thought they had heard it wrong and asked, Brother Xuefeng, are you asking Lin Xun to kneel, or...

PA!

Lin Xuefeng slapped him from afar and sent him flying across dozens of feet, screaming in agony.

Everyone realized that something was wrong and started to panic.

Kneel! Lin Xuefeng roared again.

The young men and women didnt dare to disobey him this time. They dropped to their knees with a thud, and their expressions morphed like wilted eggplants.

A bunch of trash. You were sent here to serve Mind Cleansing Peak, but you just complained all day long and did no work. You are the shame of the Lin Family!

Lin Xuefeng was enraged. He had never imagined that his clansmen would have such rotten behavior.

Ill let you settle this matter. Ill wait for you inside. Lin Xun felt awkward watching this.

After all, it was an internal affair of the North Light Lin Clan, and Lin Xuefeng could easily handle it. The matter might not be resolved if he was around.

Okay, it will only be a moment. Lin Xuefeng nodded.

As soon as Lin Xun left, Lin Xuefengs face completely clouded over. He ran his eyes across the clansmen kneeling on the ground and felt a headache coming on.

Brother Xuefeng, you...youre helping him teach us a lesson? This is...absurd! Lin Xun has never treated us as members of the clan! Someone mustered up the courage and lifted his head.

Idiot! Lin Xuefeng snapped. If he didnt treat you all as clansmen, why would he let you into Mind Cleansing Peak? Based on what you guys have done, he could have killed you already!

Everyone went stiff in bewilderment and disbelief.

Lin Xuefens expression grew increasingly cold. Im not afraid to tell you that, just yesterday, Hua Wuyou almost died at the hands of Lin Xun. Do you think your life is more precious than Hua Wuyous?

His words were like a bolt of lightning as it struck their spirit. They trembled with shock. Did he dare to kill even Hua Wuyou?

Isnt Lin Xun too arrogant?

From their expressions, Lin Xuefeng realized that they still didnt know what happened in the Forbidden City in recent days. Otherwise, they would have never dared to disrespect Lin Xun!

Let me tell you, from today on, whoever dares to disrespect Lin Xun again, I wont let them off! Kneel here and have a good think about it! Lin Xuefeng uttered coldly as he walked into the North Light Pavilion.

He didnt bother to explain any further to them.

The young men and women stood there, dumbfounded.

The main hall of North Light Pavilion.

I apologize for the clansmens incompetence. Im embarrassed you had to see that. Lin Xuefeng bowed apologetically as he stepped through the door.

Dont worry. We are all from the same clan. You already taught them a lesson. Lin Xun smiled.

Lin Xuefeng nodded and sat opposite him. Father and Grandfather entrusted me to come here. They have decided to return some items that the North Light Lin Clan had kept safe to Mind Cleansing Peak.

Lin Xuns spirits were immediately lifted. Thank you so much.

Lin Xuefeng said with a smile, They originally belonged to Mind Cleansing Peak, but the North Light Lin Clan had just kept them all these years. Since you are now the owner of Mind Cleansing Peak, I should return them to you.

He brought out a storage bracelet and handed it to Lin Xun.

Inside, there are a total of 1,733 books on cultivation, martial knowledge, pill knowledge and medicine.

In addition, there are three heaven-grade pill furnaces, thirty-six bottles of top medicinal aeth plant seeds, one thousand seven hundred and seventy human-grade aeth tools and one hundred and ten pieces of earth-grade aeth tools...

Lin Xuns eyes lit up. The North Light Lin Clan is being very sincere this time!

Their attitude had tremendously changed after Lin Xuns battle against Hua Wuyou! They were previously rather reserved but they actively supported Lin Xun now!

Lin Xuefeng continued, In addition to these, there are ten boxes of various rare treasures, seventy-seven rune creatures, and forty-two rune beasts

He continued to list the items and then said, I couldnt bring the rune creatures and beasts over, but Father will send someone to deliver them here before tomorrow afternoon.

Lin Xun was no longer happy, but astonished.

The North Light Lin Clan was very generous this time!

He had once asked Lin Zhong to count the treasures that were looted from Mind Cleansing Peak, so he knew very well that the North Light Lin Clan had returned most of the items taken from Mind Cleansing Peak!

Lin Xun stood up, gave a cupped fist salute, and said seriously, Cousin, please thank Fifth Granduncle and Uncle Huaiyuan on my behalf. Tell them that Mind Cleansing Peak will always save a place for the North Light Lin Clan!

Lin Xuefeng beamed. He was waiting for those words from Lin Xun!

Were a family, so no need to be so polite.

Lin Xuefeng gestured to Lin Xun to take a seat and then said, Lin Xun, I have decided to come to work for you at Mind Cleansing Peak. Of course, I will train at Qinglu Academy sometime but this isnt important. Whats important is that you know that I fully support you in taking charge of Mind Cleansing Peak! His expression was solemn and he didnt seem to be joking around.

Lin Xun was stumped for a moment and then he laughed. Now that I have my older cousin helping me, I wont need to worry anymore!

Lin Xuefeng was a rare talented genius. Even though he couldnt be compared to fierce characters such as Hua Wuhen and Hua Wuyou in terms of cultivation, he was still a genius who successfully passed the national examination!

Moreover, he was the successor of the North Light Lin Clan. His help would no doubt greatly benefit Lin Xun.

After a long chat, Lin Xuefeng said goodbye and took his leave.

Lin Xun headed to the Sacred Books Pavilion with Lin Zhong. They dusted the area and cleaned the cobwebs and then took out the books from the storage bracelet and returned them to their original positions.

Lin Xun didnt say a word during the process.

On the first day he set foot on Mind Cleansing Peak, he had vowed that he would take back everything that had been looted from Mind Cleansing Peak! He had vowed to make the enemies who had damaged and looted the Lin Family pay a heavy price!

He had made a huge step towards his goal after less than half a year!

It would be a lie if he said he didnt feel emotional.

After going through so much, Lin Xun had learned to conceal his emotions and remain calm and composed at all times.

Most importantly, he knew that this was just the beginning!

Lin Zhongs face was alight with excitement. He might have seen a glimmer of hope when Lin Xun first appeared on Mind Cleansing Peak, but now, he truly believed that the Lin Family and Mind Cleansing Peak would regain their former glory under the leadership of Lin Xun!

On the same day, Spirit Vulture and Xiaoke learned about the matter, and both were surprised by the North Light Lin Clans change of attitude.

However soon, understanding seemed to dawn on Spirit Vulture as he sighed, Everything is difficult at the beginning. Lin Xun has torn a hole into the Lin Familys internal problems. As long as he continues to steadily move forward, it wont be long before he resolves the problems of the other three branches of the Lin Clan.
