Chapter 55: Black Dragon Stronghold Makes a Move, the Might of the Fire Spirit Array

On the other side, the Lin Family's people were unaware that the Lei Family had set their sights on them.

They continued to mine Sun Yuan Stones rampantly as usual. By now, their warehouse was stocked with hundreds of Sun Yuan Stones, so they planned to take a batch of new goods to Flame City for sale tomorrow.

"Lin Dong, if you stay with me at Ironwood Manor tomorrow, don't go to Flame City."

Lin Dong originally wanted to invite Lin Yan to go to Flame City with him again, but Lin Yan not only refused the invitation but also asked him to stay at Ironwood Manor with him.

Lin Dong immediately sensed that something was amiss. After all, in the past, Lin Yan rarely made requests of him, and every time he did, it carried special significance.

So, Lin Dong couldn't help but ask Lin Yan with some confusion, "Brother Lin Yan, is there any special reason why you want me to stay with you at Ironwood Manor?"

Lin Yan nodded at Lin Dong. "Do you think the recent commotion from our Lin Family would go unnoticed by the Lei Family?"

Hearing this, Lin Dong raised his eyebrows and asked Lin Yan, "Brother Lin Yan, are you suggesting..."

Lin Yan said, "According to my intelligence, the Lei Family has already learned that there is a Sun Yuan Stone mine in Ironwood Manor, and they have set their sights on us."

"However, they dare not come outright. On one hand, if they openly confront our Lin Family, they won't be able to withstand it themselves. On the other hand, their reasons are insufficient. No matter how strong the Lei Family's power is, if they don't have sufficient reasons, attacking our Lin Family recklessly would directly provoke dissatisfaction from other forces in Qingyang Town. For the time being, they dare not do such a thing."

"So, Lin Dong, how do you think they will act?"

After pondering for a moment, Lin Dong's eyes lit up. He said to Lin Yan, "Summon Black Dragon Stronghold to take action, and take advantage of the empty Ironwood Manor when Father and Grandfather escort the Sun Yuan Stones tomorrow."

Lin Yan nodded. "That's right."

Lin Dong became anxious. "Brother Lin Yan, why don't we inform Grandfather?"

Lin Yan shook his head. "This incident is dangerous for us, but it's also an opportunity."

"The reason why the Lei Family is powerful is not only because of their own strength but also because they have the support of the Xie Family and Black Dragon Stronghold."

"This time, they want to send Black Dragon Stronghold to attack us, but it's also an opportunity for us to eliminate Black Dragon Stronghold. As long as we make sufficient preparations, we can make sure those people from Black Dragon Stronghold won't return, and we can also take over Black Dragon Stronghold with this opportunity."

Lin Dong suddenly understood Lin Yan's intention.

Lin Yan's idea was to use this opportunity to eliminate one of Lei Family's arms and merge Black Dragon Stronghold into their Lin Family, thus strengthening their power!

Thinking of this, when Lin Dong looked at Lin Yan again, his eyes became somewhat admiring.

But he still had one last concern. After a moment of silence, Lin Dong asked Lin Yan, "But Brother Lin Yan, if Father and Grandfather aren't here, can we defeat those people from Black Dragon Stronghold?"

Lin Yan let out a faint smile at this, and then, he revealed his strength at the middle stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm without reservation.

"This! Brother Lin Yan, when did you break through?"

"And, to the middle stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm?"

Lin Dong was stunned to see this, his eyes filled with shock.

Lin Yan answered with a smile, "The Gathering Spirit Array isn't just for show."

"So, rest assured."

"When the time comes, leave those people to me."

Lin Dong felt much more at ease seeing this.

After all, he was well aware of Lin Yan's strength. Even when his strength was at the late stage of the Earth Yuan Realm, he was able to fight opponents of a higher realm.

So now that Lin Yan's strength had reached the middle stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, it was almost certain that within the Heavenly Yuan Realm, he would have no opponents.

Therefore, dealing with a mere Black Dragon Stronghold would naturally not be a problem.

"Follow me, Lin Dong."

Lin Yan gestured for Lin Dong to follow him, smiling.

Lin Dong followed with a puzzled expression. After arriving at each checkpoint outside Ironwood Manor, he saw the red spirit array set up by Lin Yan.

These arrays were familiar to Lin Dong; they were the Fire Spirit Arrays that had caused him trouble before!

Although the Fire Spirit Array could only deal with opponents below the middle stage of the Earth Yuan Realm, how many people above that level did Black Dragon Stronghold have?

With these arrays, it would be enough to wipe out all the small fries.

Finally, only the so-called experts would be left for Lin Yan and Lin Dong to deal with.

"How about it, Lin Dong? Is everything secure now?"

Lin Yan asked Lin Dong with a smile.

As for Lin Dong, upon hearing Lin Yan's words, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth, feeling sorry for those people from Black Dragon Stronghold.

"Brother Lin Yan, those people have really picked the wrong fight with you."

Lin Dong said to Lin Yan earnestly.

Lin Yan smiled and shrugged, "Who told them to work for the Lei Family? They can't blame anyone but themselves."

The two smiled at each other and then began to arrange the next steps.

The next morning, Lin Xiao and Lin Zhentian, along with others, set off as usual to transport the Sun Yuan Stones to Flame City.

As for the people from Black Dragon Stronghold, they were also ambushed outside Ironwood Manor. They waited until Lin Xiao and the others had gone far before launching their attack!

"Attack! Today, we must destroy the Lin Family!"

The leader of Black Dragon Stronghold, Yan Ku, waved his hand vigorously, leading a large number of subordinates toward Ironwood Manor.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Just as the front-line troops arrived at a checkpoint, they stepped into the formation Lin Yan had set up in advance, and suddenly, it was like they had fallen into a sea of fire, being burned by flames.

The members of Black Dragon Stronghold wailed in pain. As for Yan Ku, because he had never seen such a spirit array before, he found it difficult to understand what was happening.

"What's going on here?"

"Where did these flames come from?"

Yan Ku exclaimed in shock.

On the other side, Lin Yan and Lin Dong, who had been hiding in the dark all along, saw this scene and decided to take action.

"Hold on, Brother Lin Yan, I seem to be breaking through!"

"Damn it, of all times..."

Lin Dong suddenly felt the elemental energy in his body surging wildly, his aura skyrocketing, becoming somewhat uncontrollable.

"It's you who's behind this!"

"You're seeking death!"

Yan Ku quickly noticed Lin Dong and Lin Yan and rushed towards them in a fit of rage.

"Focus on your breakthrough; leave them to me."

Lin Yan replied to Lin Dong.

Without waiting for Lin Dong's response,

Lin Yan stepped forward and directly repelled Yan Ku with a punch.

"I think it's you who's seeking death!"
