Chapter 1086 Lin Family's Gathering

"Are you mocking me?!" Tian Suyin suddenly stopped moving and shouted at Yuan, who had been completely focused on her sword techniques.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" He snapped out of his daze and asked.

"You've been doing nothing but avoid me! Are we playing tag or are we fighting?!" She pointed her sword at him, and on her face was an angry frown.

"Oh, sorry. I was distracted by something." Yuan said with an apologetic smile on his face.

And he asked, "By the way, before we continue, can I ask you a question? Where did you learn that sword technique?"

"If you beat me, I will tell you." Tian Suyin sneered.

"Very well."

Yuan gave Tian Suyin a moment to prepare herself.

Once it seemed like she was ready, Yuan suddenly disappeared from Tian Suyin's vision even though she had been staring at him without blinking, almost like he'd disappeared into thin air.

She suddenly felt a presence appear behind her, and she instinctively turned around while swinging her sword.

Yuan calmly moved his hand behind her elbow, preventing her from turning around any further, and with his other hand, he gave her one good punch on the side of her stomach.

"Ah!" Tian Suyin released a painful cry before falling to her knees.

Even though it seemed like an ordinary punch, the punch actually shook the spiritual energy in Tian Suyin's Dantian like a shockwave, forcing her body to feel weak, temporarily losing all of her strength.

"I think the disparity between you and I should be quite clear now." Yuan said to her as he lowered his fist, letting them rest beside him.

Tian Suyin gritted her teeth in frustration. She was a sect elder of a relatively strong sect, yet she couldn't even touch a single hair on Yuan's body, who was many years younger than her. And to make matters worse, she wielded a weapon and used techniques while Yuan confronted her with his bare hands.

Although Tian Suyin couldn't fully grasp Yuan's strength from their light spar, one thing was clear, and that Yuan was a formidable individual.

"What did I tell you, mother? Xiao Yang is the real deal. And what he showed you just now isn't even a small fraction of his full strength." Tian Yanyu shook her head at her mother.

"To be fair, your mother didn't use her full strength either. Well, I think she just wanted to understand my strength even if it's a little." Yuan said, hoping it'd make Tian Suyin feel better.

Once the spiritual energy inside her body stabilized, Tian Suyin stood up and spoke in a low voice, "Sword of Indomitable Will. That's the name of the sword technique I used, and it's a technique from the Jade Sword Manor. Although it's a relatively weak sword technique, I learned it because I liked its name."

"Sword of Indomitable Will…" Yuan mumbled this name in a low voice.

"I am actually a disciple of this sect, and I also know this sword technique, by the way." Tian Yanyu suddenly said.

"Is that so…"

After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Do you mind if I visit the Jade Sword Manor?"

"Why would you want to do that?" Tian Yanyu asked.

"I want to confirm something." He said, giving a vague answer.

Tian Yanyu realized this so she didn't ask further.

"No." Tian Suyin suddenly said, and she continued, "Until you settle your business with the Lin Family and this situation, you're not going anywhere. I don't want you bringing trouble into our sect."

Yuan nodded, "Don't worry, it'll all be settled in a few days."

"Anyways, I'm going to rest for a bit. If you need me, you know where to find me." Yuan said to them before going back to his room.

Once Yuan was gone, Tian Suyin turned to look at Tian Yanyu and said with a solemn face, "You're going to tell me everything from the beginning! And don't you dare miss even the slightest detail!"

"I understand…"

Thus, the Tian Family went to another room for their meeting.

Meanwhile, at the Lin Family, all of its members had been gathered in one place under Patriarch Lin's instructions.

"I wonder what happened. I can't even recall the last time Father gathered all of us in such a manner." A young lady mumbled out loud to the others around her.

"It probably has something to do with what happened very recently." Another person said.

"What happened?"

"According to what my servant told me, some crazy bastard kicked down our Lin Family's front gate and even beat many of our guards."

"What?! Which madman would dare to do such a thing?"

"Even if that did happen, why would the Patriarch summon all of us?"

.me.

"I heard that Ancestor Lin also came out of his seclusion recently."

"The Ancestor?! Does this mean he's finally breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor realm?!"

"Silence!" A loud voice suddenly resounded, instantly hushing the room.

Then, the sound of footsteps resounded.

A few moments later, Patriarch Lin appeared before them.

Patriarch Lin swept his gaze at the tens of thousands of people in front of him and said in a clear voice, "I want the names of those who could not make it today on my desk by tonight."

"Yes!" An old man immediately responded in a loud voice.

After a moment of silence, Patriarch Lin continued, "I have gathered all of you here today for two reasons."

"First of all, the upper heavens have decided to send people down here to look for the sinner that had received Heaven's death sentence, and it's not just a few people. According to the information I was given by the Lin Family in the upper heavens, thousands of people from all sorts of terrifying backgrounds that far surpasses our Lin Family's will be sent down here in a month or so."

Everyone there expressed great shock after hearing this information, as this was an unprecedented event that could shake up the entire Nine Heavens.
