Cultivation Pet Shop - 979 Movement

By the end of the training session, all of the cousins were exhausted and lying on the ground.

Even Lin Hong hadn’t been spared that fate.

They all had looks of unwillingness in their eyes, but they couldn’t even move a single muscle right now.

During the training session just now, they hadn’t been able to resist at all as Lin Fan thrashed them around.

Even without summoning his pets, they hadn’t even been able to do a thing to him.

But their biggest mistake in the end was losing control and summoning out their pets. The moment that their pets were summoned, their loss had been secured.

Lin Fan didn’t move, but the void law barrier was also able to do the same thing as him using his void laws. The moment that they made contact with the void law barriers, they were immediately converted to Lin Fan’s side and pledged their loyalty to him.

As for the ones that weren’t physical attackers…they were quickly overwhelmed by the pets that had been converted and dragged over to the barrier. The look on the faces of the converted pets made it seem like they were doing these pets a favour.

It was almost like they were bringing someone into a cult.

So just like this, all of the cousins were beaten to a pulp.

But of course, during this time, Lin Fan had given each of them guidance as he beat them up. So it couldn’t be said that they didn’t gain anything out of this.

His guidance was really accurate, touching on the weak points of their techniques accurately.

If they followed his guidance, there was no doubt that they would become stronger.

The only thing restraining them in this aspect was…their pride.

It all depended on if their pride would allow them to accept this guidance.

It was very unlikely that it would, but Lin Fan also had a solution for that in the future.

He would slowly beat that pride out of them.

Since they had been crushed today, he would leave it at this. This was his mercy for the first day of training.

Tomorrow…would be much worse.

Many of them thought that this would be a one time thing, but many of the cousins would be disappointed.

After he was done, Lin Fan was planning on heading to the store, but he found that there was a messenger who was waiting for him.

So he raised his guard and prepared to attack this subordinate to the surprise of the surrounding guards.

The guards that had been assigned here were ones that hadn’t been on guard at the ball, so they didn’t know what had happened. After all, it was very important, so the Lin Astral Emperor had given a gag order in the first place.

The subordinate was caught off guard by this, but then he quickly raised his hands and said, “Your highness, it’s actually me.”

The guards were confused to hear this, but they forced themselves to have calm looks on their faces as they watched this.

Lin Fan waited to see what the messenger would do, but seeing that he didn’t try to struggle at all, Lin Fan decided to see what he wanted. After all, he couldn’t doubt every single person that he met just because of what had happened, that would be counterproductive.

So he said, “What do you want?”

The messenger gave a sigh of relief when he heard this before saying, “His majesty wants to meet you in the usual meeting room.”

Lin Fan was surprised to hear this and even doubted that this was a plot, but he knew that it wouldn’t be.

That was all because of the location of the meeting that the messenger was inviting him to.

That usual room, it was the room that currently had the Soul Searching Array laid out in it. If he went to that room, there was no doubt that he would be able to immediately find out whether whoever was waiting for him was the real person or not.

That was because the Lin Astral Emperor had given him access to the Soul Searching Array.

The Soul Searching Array was linked to the soul jades stored in the palace, so if Lin Fan wanted to, he could even verify the identity of the Lin Astral Emperor who had a soul jade inside of the palace. So that would be the worst place to lure Lin Fan into a trap.

Which was why Lin Fan wasn’t afraid of it being a trap.

So in the end, Lin Fan gave a nod in response to this and waved his hand at the guards to follow him.

The subordinate couldn’t help revealing a touched look before bowing to Lin Fan, but he didn’t follow since he knew that it would be inappropriate.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Lin Fan waved his hand at the subordinate as he left.

When he arrived at the room, the guards all took their place outside while Lin Fan went in.

When he went in, he found that it wasn’t just the Lin Astral Emperor, but also Lin Jian and Lin Ao who were there.

With a thought, he quickly verified their identity with the Soul Searching Array.

They felt the effect of the array and didn’t resist it.

Once he had confirmed that it was indeed them, he sat down and waited for the Lin Astral Emperor to start.

When Lin Astral Emperor saw him sit down, he took out three packets that he threw out in front of them and just waited for them to read it first.

The three of them had confused looks as they looked at these packets, but they still opened them and read them.

As they read through these, they couldn’t help knitting their brows more and more. Finally, they all put down the folders and looked at the Lin Astral Emperor with knitted brows, but not a single one of them spoke.

The Lin Astral Emperor could guess what they wanted to ask, but he also didn’t say a thing.

Finally, Lin Fan was the one that broke the silence by asking, “Has this been confirmed?”

The Lin Astral Emperor gave a nod before saying, “It’s been confirmed by the scouts in the area, so there’s no mistake.”

After hearing this, the three of them couldn’t help knitting their brows even more.

After all, if this had been confirmed, then this really was bad.

What the folder had contained were reports of Beast Race movement in the territory of the Lin Astral Empire.

With how the Beast Race seemed to be moving, it seemed like they were planning on taking action against the Lin Astral Empire.

For the past few centuries, the Lin Astral Empire had enjoyed peace as they had a truce with the Beast Race. Or rather, the Beast Race had turned their attention to other Astral Empires, so they left the Lin Astral Empire alone.

As far as they knew, the Beast Race were currently targeting some of the Astral Empires to the north. That included the Yu Astral Empire, which was a mortal enemy of the Lin Astral Empire.

But it seemed like nothing lasted forever and the Beast Race wanted to take action against the Lin Astral Empire.

The only problem was the reason why they wanted to do this…

If one thought about it carefully, there had only been a single big thing that had happened in the Lin Astral Empire lately.

That was the arrival of Lin Fan.

After his debut, everyone knew that he was the heir to the Lin Astral Empire and anyone who had even the slightest bit of an intelligence network would know some things about him…such as the fact that he had the Void Physique.

The Lin Astral Emperor even looked the other way when those rumours spread because he wanted to establish Lin Fan’s prestige.

He never thought that it would come to bite them in the butt like this.

The Beast Race movement and the incident with the assassins, it was clear that everyone was trying to take care of Lin Fan before he could develop.

So the Lin Astral Emperor, Lin Jian, and Lin Ao all looked at Lin Fan with concerned looks.

Lin Fan on the other hand was very calm about this.

He had already expected this, so of course he was calm.

In the first place, he wasn’t planning on leaving the Lin Astral Empire and was just planning on staying in his store. So even if the Beast Race was moving, it didn’t concern him.

The Lin Astral Empire might suffer, but this was just a part of the fate of being an Astral Empire.

The Beast Race would have attacked them eventually for one reason or another because they were the pinnacle of the human race. If they attacked because of him, that was just what it was.

The Lin Astral Emperor had been most worried that Lin Fan would take this news personally, but seeing how calm he was, he couldn’t help revealing a look of praise.

It seemed like he had been right about this great grandson of his.

He really would bring them into a new age.

But for now, it was still his time as the elder to take care of Lin Fan.
