Chapter 42 Ironwood Village Incident, Even the Product of a Great Master?

Upon hearing Lincoln's words, Lin Xiao, on the side, also looked at Lin Yan with curiosity written all over his face.

Like Lincoln before him, Lin Xiao, who quickly rushed over, also saw that Lin Yan's previous fight with Lei Ying was evenly matched, and he even seemed to have the upper hand.

Therefore, Lin Xiao was also very curious at the moment. Could it be that Lin Yan had really entered the Heaven Elemental Realm? If that were true, it would be somewhat unbelievable.

After all, from his cultivation until now, it might not even have been a year yet.

But in just one year, to directly progress from the Tempering Body Realm to the Heaven Elemental Realm, this speed was truly abnormal.

"Not really."

"Uncle Lincoln."

"Actually, I'm still in the later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm."

But Lin Yan shook his head at Lincoln and Lin Xiao, speaking to the two of them.

"The later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm?"

"Not bad."

The two of them naturally felt a bit disappointed upon hearing this, and Lincoln also comforted Lin Yan.

But he soon realized that something was amiss.

His gaze became even more shocked than before.

"Wait a minute, Lin Yan, are you saying that you're just in the later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm, but you can fight evenly with Lei Ying, who is in the early stage of the Heaven Elemental Realm, and even slightly suppress him?"

Lin Xiao was dumbfounded by Lincoln's words.

"Yeah! Lin Yan, how can you, in the later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm, compete with someone in the Heaven Elemental Realm? This completely defies logic!" Lin Xiao said, puzzled.

After all, as a Heaven Elemental Realm warrior, he naturally knew how huge the gap between the Heaven Elemental Realm and the Earth Elemental Realm was.

Whether it was physical strength or the purity of elemental energy, warriors in the Heaven Elemental Realm were far superior to those in the Earth Elemental Realm.

It could be said that even if a Heaven Elemental Realm warrior's cultivation was only in the early stage of the Heaven Elemental Realm, the gap between him and a warrior in the later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm was even greater than the gap between a warrior in the later stage of the Earth Elemental Realm and one in the early stage of the Earth Elemental Realm!

So when Lincoln reminded him like this, Lin Xiao also directly realized his oversight. As he looked at Lin Yan, his eyes were full of shock.

"I can only say it's luck."

"Or perhaps, Lei Ying is relatively weak in the Heaven Elemental Realm?"

Lin Yan scratched his head at this, laughing awkwardly at Lincoln and Lin Xiao.

The two of them shook their heads solemnly, very certain as they replied to Lin Yan, "No, Lei Ying's strength is not weak in the early stage of the Heaven Elemental Realm."

"Or perhaps, it's just that you, kid, are too abnormal."

With that said, Lincoln and Lin Xiao smiled brightly.

The annoyance they felt because of Ironwood Village being destroyed earlier was quickly swept away from their hearts!

The two couldn't help but say, "Although it's irritating that Ironwood Village was destroyed,"

"But our Lin Family has produced a Lin Yan, which makes us feel very lucky."

"Luck is a conserved quantity. With you, this kid from our Lin Family, we can accept a bit of bad luck on ordinary days."

Lin Yan smiled and said nothing more.

He wasn't the kind of person who liked to show off. Most of the time, he preferred to keep a low profile.

So he didn't continue the topic following the two's words.

And Lin Xiao and Lincoln had known Lin Yan for a long time.

They also knew that although Lin Yan's strength and talent were terrifying, he was quietly terrifying.

Therefore, when they realized that Lin Yan didn't want to attract too much attention, they also stopped the topic there. After all, Lin Yan's significance to the Lin Family was extraordinary now, and they also needed to consider Lin Yan's feelings.

"First, let's check the Ironwood Forest area inside Ironwood Village and see the extent of the damage!"

Lincoln turned his gaze and issued instructions to the other Lin family guards.

"Yes!"

The Lin family members responded and quickly began their investigation.

However, the answers they obtained were not good, in fact, they were quite poor. So, when Lincoln and Lin Xiao heard the report, their faces turned completely grim.

The news quickly reached the Lin family.

And when Lin ZhenTian, who immediately rushed to Ironwood Village upon receiving the news, began to rage, it was not unexpected.

At this moment, outside the hall, hearing Lin ZhenTian's furious roars, Lincoln and Lin Xiao couldn't help but show bitter smiles. Then Lincoln said to Lin Xiao, "Looks like Father's anger will take a while to dissipate."

"Little brother, we better avoid his wrath for now. We might both get scolded if we go in now."

"So let's wait until Father calms down before we tell him about Yan'er. Once he knows about Yan'er, his mood should improve."

Lin Xiao nodded in agreement with Lincoln's assessment.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lin Yan, sitting on a steep mountain cliff with Lin Yan, couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Even he, for the first time, witnessed Lin ZhenTian's furious appearance.

"Sigh, still not strong enough. Need to continue to work hard."

"Even struggling against someone in the early stage of the Heaven Elemental Realm, I'm still too weak."

Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh. As he thought about facing the powerful Lei family in the future, and how in the original work, the Lei family even conspired with others to destroy the Lin family, he became more aware of his own lack of strength.

But these words fell on Lin Dong's ears, causing him to involuntarily twitch his mouth.

"Big brother Lin Yan, you really don't know what's good for you."

"With your level of strength, you still think you're too weak?"

"Then I might as well not cultivate at all. It's just embarrassing."

Lin Dong said with a face full of resentment to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan chuckled a few times and didn't say much.

He quickly said to Lin Dong, "Little brother Lin Dong, I'm going to wander around the area for a bit. Listening to Grandpa's yelling here is getting boring."

Lin Dong nodded in response and stood up. He asked Lin Yan, "Want to come along?"

Lin Yan shook his head. "No, I have other things to do."

Lin Dong rolled his eyes at Lin Yan. "Fine, forget it then! So secretive."

The two quickly separated.

As for Lin Yan, he soon began to wander around Ironwood Village.

The reason for this was naturally to complete his check-in here at Ironwood Village.

After all, he didn't know the specific check-in location, so he could only wander around and rely on luck.

And as for why he wanted to keep Lin Dong away, it was definitely because he didn't want him to discover his secret.

Lin Yan wandered around Ironwood Village for quite a while.

He was originally worried that he wouldn't be able to check-in here.

But the system did not disappoint him.

When Lin Yan arrived at a intact grove of trees, the system's voice suddenly sounded, causing Lin Yan to stop in his tracks.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing the check-in at Ironwood Village!]

[Reward: Samsara Death Seal!]

[Source: Great Thousand World!]

Lin Yan originally thought that this time's reward would still be something from the Dou Qi Continent, considering that the rewards from previous times were like that!

But upon hearing the system's announcement, Lin Yan couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Because he quickly realized that this time, the reward given by the system was not from the Dou Qi Continent, but from within the Great Dominator, the Great Thousand World?
