Not giving the four people any chance to speak, Lin Fan continued with a look of grievance: "The four of them relied on being intermediate fighters, and they ganged up to brutally beat me. They even specifically targeted areas on my body that couldn't be seen, so much so that I've been beaten into internal injuries."

  Lin Fan's words brought tears to everyone's eyes, and the Lin family guards and the four of them were stunned. One can be shameless as a person, but one cannot be so shameless that even gods and demons would be shocked, and ghosts and monsters would faint.

  Upon hearing the two words "internal injury", Lin Wushuang's face changed instantly, and he directly came to Lin Fan's front, placing his hand on Lin Fan's right wrist pulse. As time passed, Lin Wushuang's expression became increasingly cold, eventually becoming so icy that it could freeze an elephant to death.

  Seeing the expression on Lin Wushuang's face, the four family heads were all shaken in their hearts. Although the Lin family has begun to decline slowly, after all, the Lin family is one of the six major families, and its strength is evident. If the Lin family wants to destroy any of the other four families, it will not be difficult at all. The four family heads were speechless, thinking that their sons did not understand the situation, and a fight was just a fight, but they actually caused internal injuries. What if Lin Wushuang loses his temper?

  Looking at the four young men's awkward faces, Lin Fan felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. He thought to himself, "You four idiots, disturbing my alchemy practice, I won't let you off easy." If others were to hear Lin Fan's words, they would be speechless and might even faint. But what he said was actually "Lin" written upside down - wasn't it still "Lin"?

  "They four saw you coming, so they pretended to hammer each other on the left eye, and claimed that the four families would drive the Lin family out of Luojing City, making the people of my Lin family become prisoners under the stairs." It seemed that he didn't plan to end it like this, and a thread of fresh blood flowed from the corner of Lin Fan's mouth again, his right hand weakly pointing at the four people not far away.

  As soon as this was said, the four masters could no longer hold back. If they didn't step forward and let this little ancestor continue speaking, it would be unbearable. The four masters secretly scolded their own sons in their hearts, thinking that even if they wanted to kick out the Lin family, they couldn't say it out loud in front of others.

  "Brother Lin, don't be offended, it was just a momentary slip of the tongue by a child. How could Luoyi City not have the Lin family's guardian?"

  "Brother Jin's words are extremely right. The Lin family is one of the six major families in Luoshi City, and they have made great contributions to Luoshi City. Without the Lin family, there would be no Luoshi City."

  "Cough...cough..."

  It seems that Meng Wuchang also felt that he had misspoken, his face somewhat embarrassed. He continued, "Brother Lin, there's still something going on at my place, so I won't disturb you anymore, farewell." After finishing speaking, Meng Wuchang directly pulled his son and quickly left the Lin residence, not even daring to turn his head back once. The remaining three family heads also successively departed, and in the blink of an eye, the previously bustling entrance of the Lin residence was left with only Lin Fan, his son, and a few Lin family guards.

  After the four masters left with their sons, Lin Wushuang suddenly let go of his hand on his son's pulse and asked in a somewhat displeased tone: "What's going on?"

  "What's going on? Dad, what are you talking about, I don't understand?" With a puzzled face, Lin Fan was just about to get up and continue refining the elixir when Lin Wushuang suddenly pressed down on his shoulder and asked: "Don't think your dad is an idiot, what's really going on?"

  His heart skipped a beat, whether it was the original Lin Fan or the current one who had crossed over, neither of them knew anything about their own father. Lin Wushuang's entire being exuded an air of mystery, and as his biological son, he sometimes couldn't even understand him.

  In the memories left by Lin Fan, Lin Fan only got some scattered information. Lin Wushuang, 18 years old, came to Luoshen City and relied on his high-level swordsmanship to establish the Lin family's foundation, and even entered the ranks of the six major families in Luoshen City. Twenty years have passed, and what level Lin Wushuang's strength has reached is still a mystery.

  Moreover, Lin Fan had no mother since he was young. Since Lin Fan understood things, it seemed that there was only this old father. Lin Fan also asked Lin Wushuang several times where his own mother was, but every time he got Lin Wushuang's furious response, and gradually, Lin Fan also forgot whether he had a mother or not.

  "I didn't deceive you," Lin Fan said indifferently, glancing at the man in front of him, and then got up and left. Looking at his son who had already disappeared from view, Lin Wushuang's heart was filled with sighs.

  Back in the yard, he threw away the annoyance in his mind. The seventh batch of Xī Mó Dān had just been ruined by the four people, and now only three out of ten medicinal materials were left. If he still couldn't refine the Xī Mó Dān, he would have to go out and buy more medicinal materials for refining it.

  Pour the eighth batch of medicinal materials into the alchemical furnace, take a deep breath, and once again make various hand seals towards the alchemical furnace. With no distractions in his mind, Lin Fan focused all his attention on refining the elixir. At this moment, he seemed to have entered some kind of wondrous state.

  Three time divisions later, a strange fragrance wafted through the entire Lin family's backyard. Slowly opening his eyes, Lin Fan's face only had a hint of joy. After eight times of refining the elixir, the Washing Marrow Dan was finally successfully refined by himself.

  He took out the marrow-washing pill from the Dan Ding, a small orange-yellow pill lying quietly in his hand. According to the Dan formula, the marrow-washing pill could wash the marrow of the whole body and all the meridians, allowing a warrior to reach an advanced stage. Although he was a top-tier otaku in the 21st century, Lin Fan had read countless xianxia novels and was quite familiar with the so-called marrow-washing pill. However, when things really happened to himself, Lin Fan still couldn't believe it.

  Such a small Dan medicine, it can actually wash the marrow of the whole body and all the pulses. It's really unbelievable. Without hesitation, Lin Fan directly swallowed the orange-yellow washing marrow pill in his hand, preparing to rely on the washing marrow pill to impact the high-level warrior realm.

  The Xǐ Mó Dān instantly transformed into a fierce ice current flowing towards Lin Fan's Qí Jīng Bā Mài, his face revealing a hint of pain, as his body began to secrete tiny black sticky substances, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down from his temples.

  In the distance, on top of the courtyard wall, Lin Wushuang watched his son's every move, and in his heart, a stormy sea had already surged up. A mid-level warrior, just a few days ago, his son's strength had actually reached the level of a warrior, how was this possible?

  Originally intending to ask for the bottom line, Lin Wushuang finally endured it. His son had grown up and had his own secrets. Since his son didn't want to tell him, there must be a reason why he didn't want to tell himself. With a light sigh in his heart, Lin Wushuang quietly left without disturbing anyone. The effect of the Washing Marrow Dan was enormous, and the entire washing process lasted for three hours before stopping. Slowly opening his eyes, Lin Fan had a hint of surprise on his face. As expected, the Washing Marrow Dan was indeed divine, and it actually washed all the meridians in his body. Moreover, at this moment, Lin Fan finally broke through to become a high-level warrior from a mid-level one.

  A high-ranking warrior, in Luoshan City, although not a strong one, is still considered to have achieved some success. Only those who have reached the rank of Martial Master can receive respect from Luoshan City, just like Lin Fan's father, Lin Wushuang, who was already a high-ranking Martial Master twenty years ago. Even if Lin Wushuang has made no progress in the past twenty years, he is still an undisputed strongman in Luoshan City.

  The legend has it that the strongest in Luoshencheng is the City Lord, a high-level War Master. When one's cultivation reaches the realm of War Master, they can communicate with heaven and earth and connect with their own body, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their dantian to form the initial war energy. This energy can be circulated to the surface of the body for protection or to a weapon to enhance its power. The three levels of low, middle, and high are divided according to the strength of the formed war energy. As for the Great War Master, they have built their foundation, gathered their yuan, and stepped into the gate of the War Path. They can release their war energy to protect themselves, practice profound war decisions, and imbue their war energy onto a weapon to increase its power.

  According to legend, above the Great War Masters, there is a War King. When one's cultivation reaches the realm of the War King, they can break through their original heart, open up the Hundred Will Holes, enter the Pre-Heavenly Realm, and possess divine wisdom to perceive overseas sounds, transmit voices with others, and inspect cultivations. They can also separate their war energy from their body, injure enemies in the void, and have no presence in the entire Luori City, only the Dragon-Tiger Empire that governs Luori City has a War King stationed there.

  Each of the war kings is a guardian deity of the empire, and it is said that the war king can easily take down the opponent's general in a million strong soldiers, with an aura that breaks through the air and injures the enemy, no one can stop it. From then on, the war king also became the goal in the hearts of every warrior, no matter who, they all hope that one day they will be able to reach the legendary state of the war king.

  In just four days, Lin Fan rose from an ordinary person to a high-level warrior. If this matter were to spread, it's unknown whether it would stir up a bloody storm in Luoshen City.

  He seemed quite satisfied with his achievements over the past few days, so Lin Fan washed up and sat comfortably in the courtyard to bask in the sunlight. Having just finished refining the Washing Marrow Dan, Lin Fan did not immediately start refining the second type of elixir, Tong Ling Dan. There were still three whole days until the big competition, and he could refine Tong Ling Dan tomorrow if he wanted to.

  "Master, Chunju has come to see you."

  Just as Lin Fan was enjoying his sunbath, a sweet and charming voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard. A smile spread across his face as he looked at the four maids beside him. To be honest, Lin Fan still quite liked them. After all, each of the four maids was stunningly beautiful, and if they were to participate in a beauty pageant on Earth, they would definitely have a good chance of winning the title of Miss Hong Kong.

  "Come in."

  Ever since Lin Fan ordered that no one was allowed to enter without his command three days ago, the four maids were speechless. As the young master's personal maids, they hadn't seen the young master for three whole days, which was truly frustrating. Even if the young master was unwell or had a roving eye, he had always been good to the four of them.

  You should know that in the entire Dragon Empire, slaves don't have any personal freedom at all. If you encounter a good master, it's still okay to speak well of them, but if you encounter an unscrupulous master, then sorry, you'll just have to endure all sorts of hardships and sufferings.
