In the face of Lin Xun’s cold eyes, Lin Huaitang felt a terrifying and suffocating pressure for the first time.

It was far too frightening!

He felt as if he was on the verge of collapsing.

However, the subsequent developments surpassed Lin Xun’s expectations. Before Lin Huaitang could speak, someone angrily stood up and loudly shouted, “Lin Xun, is this how a younger person like you should speak to his uncles? Are there no more rules in this clan?”

With someone taking the lead, the other North Light Lin Clan higher-ups were emboldened and also began to speak up one after another.

“Exactly, according to seniority, he is your uncle. It is far too disrespectful for a nephew like you to reprimand him like that.”

“Hmph! Even your father did not dare to speak to us in such a manner when he was alive. Lin Xun, you’ve gone too far!”

“How unbecoming. As soon as you return, you didn’t even bother checking who was right or wrong before you started aggressively throwing accusations at your elders. What has become of the rules?”

Upon seeing this, the originally crumbling Lin Huaitang secretly breathed a sigh of relief as a pleased smile appeared on his lips.

Lin Xun, no matter how arrogant you are, you’re still a junior member of the Lin Clan. Even if you control Mind Cleansing Peak and are the legitimate successor, do you dare to ignore the clan rules and commit the offense of disrespecting an elder?

Naive!

Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged despite being accused by many. However, his eyes grew increasingly cold as a mocking smile rose from his lips. “Rules? Trying to use seniority to suppress me? In my view, I was too accommodating of you guys which made all of you not treat me seriously.”

“What are you trying to say?”

Lin Huaitang had also become emboldened and sternly chided, “Do you feel these elders are wrong?”

“It seems that you people still do not believe that you are wrong.”

Lin Xun suddenly sighed as he displayed a look of waning interest.

Under the crowd’s confused gazes, he silently waved his hand.

Chii!

A flash of scarlet red suddenly burst in from outside the hall and turned into a noble-looking scarlet eagle that seemed to have been born from divine flames.

Fiery light sprinkled from its wings. Although it was only two feet tall, it gave off a terrifying pressure that immediately caused the temperature in the hall to rise rapidly as if they were in a furnace.

It was the Scarlet Eagle King.

Everyone was bewildered, unable to understand what Lin Xun was trying to do.

“You…what are you trying to do?”

Lin Huaitang was outraged. “Could it be that you’re going to take action here? How disgraceful!”

Lian Huaiyuan seemed to realize something, causing his heart to slam against his chest uncontrollably. His expression drastically changed as he cried out, “No!”

But it was already too late!

Swish!

Dreadful fire-light shot from the Scarlet Eagle King’s eyes as it gently spread its blade-like wings, creating a fireball that immediately shot forth.

The attack was as sharp as a blade and was so hot that it burned the surrounding space!

“This…”

Everyone was horrified. They could not imagine that Lin Xun had indeed done it!

Plop!

The attack was far too swift. Although Lin Huaitang was a strong expert and a higher-up of the North Light Lin Clan, he was facing a sure-kill strike of a peak Heaven Ascension monster-beast cultivator.

Moreover, it was a situation where he was utterly unprepared. Hence, he was immediately engulfed by flames that began to burn his body.

“You actually dared…” Lin Huaitang’s eyes bulged from their sockets, his expression filled with disbelief and indescribable fear.

Boom!

The flames burned with terrifying power and instantly turned him to ashes, not even leaving any bones behind.

Even until death, he had never imagined Lin Xun would go through with it!

He didn’t care about rules, reasons, or the elders' opinions. If you didn’t agree with him, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill without warning. It was honestly far too shocking to everyone present.

Lin Huaitang was dead!

The hall became deathly silent.

Lin Huaiyuan’s younger brother and an influential higher-up of the clan had been killed just like that!

Lin Huaitang was also Lin Xun’s uncle, but he had still been murdered in cold blood!

To add insult to injury, it wasn’t even at Lin Xun’s hands but what appeared to be his battle pet. Such a death was undoubtedly crude, insulting, and humiliating.

Don’t agree with me?

Then I’ll kill you!

I’ll be the judge of right or wrong. Who cares who you are? Why would I care who you are?

If you refuse to admit your wrongdoing and face punishment, then I’ll kill you a hundred times over if need be.

This was Lin Xun’s stance!

“How did things…develop to this stage…”

Lin Huaiyuan sat in his chair in a daze, his brows filled with anger and sorrow. It looked as if he had aged countless years in an instant.

Lin Huaitang was his younger brother, but had been killed just like that…this…whose fault was it?

The expressions of the other North Light Lin Clan higher-ups turned ashen as their hearts trembled uncontrollably. Lin Huaitang’s death was akin to a warning bell for them, causing them to become terrified and outraged. They realized that the youngster before them could not be judged using common sense.

He didn’t care about what was right in the clan, and there was no such thing as seniority in his eyes. In fact, even blood relations were ignored by him!

Who would dare to rashly speak against such an unscrupulous, vicious, and forceful youngster?

Even Lin Zhong was surprised, his eyes wide open in shock as complicated emotions churned in his heart. The Young Master…would likely have to bear the infamy of being a ‘kin killer’ in the future.

However, if he didn’t do so, how else could the Young Master find a way out of this predicament?

“A serious illness requires potent medicine. If you do not show that you will kill when you say so, no one will respect you. Whether it’s the struggle for the crown or vying for the clan leader position, it is unavoidable for blood to be shed and conflicts to arise. Fathers and sons can turn on each other, and it is not rare for even brothers to butt heads. If Lin Xun keeps giving in, a similar situation will occur sooner or later.”

Spirit Vulture transmitted to console Lin Zhong. “This is the cruelty of a power struggle. If you’ve never experienced it, then you will never understand how difficult it is to stabilize your position.”

The Scarlet Eagle King withdrew its wings and landed on Lin Xun’s shoulder. It lowered its head, fire seemingly flashing in its eyes as if searching for the next target, causing numerous higher-ups to shy away from its gaze.

“I’ve already given him a chance. It’s regrettable that he did not treasure it.”

Lin Xun’s expression was calm. He looked at Spirit Vulture and said, “Mister, how many people present do you think have turned traitor? How many of these people have entertained treacherous thoughts and sought to obtain things they should not?”

Everyone’s expressions filled with horror. Killing Lin Huaitang wasn’t the end, Lin Xun planned on eradicating all traces of corruption!

“Clan Leader!”

Lin Huaiyuan sorrowfully rose to his feet as his heart bled inside. “All of the blame for today’s matter lies on me. I hope that you can be forgiving and let this matter rest!”

He could no longer remain calm. If they were to continue, the North Light Lin Clan would receive an unprecedentedly terrible blow and blood would certainly flow. It was something that he could never bear to watch.

Lin Xun was expressionless. “I won’t be able to rest easy until all of the tumors are purged. I hope that Uncle will not make this more difficult for me.”

Today’s affair might very well be largely Lin Huaiyuan’s fault. However, Lin Xun absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen again!

If he didn’t find all of the rotten apples and punish them severely, the same thing would only happen again when he headed to the Ancient Wasteland Domain in the future.

“Here’s a name list.”

At this juncture, Spirit Vulture wheeled himself forward and handed a scroll to Lin Xun.

A chill rose in everyone’s hearts. They had viewed Spirit Vulture as a useless old cripple and never imagined that he had been secretly collecting information to be used at the right moment.

They didn’t need to see the scroll to know that it contained all of the information regarding the North Light Lin Clan’s activities over the past few months!

Lin Xun did not seem surprised. Although Spirit Vulture’s cultivation had been crippled, he was still extremely intelligent and wise. If not, Lin Xun would have never given him the authority to manage Mind Cleansing Peak.

Spirit Vulture did not disappoint. The name list was excellent proof of this.

Lin Xun opened the scroll and his expression turned stormy as wisps of unconcealable killing intent surged out in his black eyes.

The contents of the list were simply shocking! It detailed all the shady activities of several North Light Lin Clan higher-ups while Lin Xun was gone.

There was collaboration with the enemy!

There was secret scheming to seize power in Mind Cleansing Peak!

Although there were those that might seem to have done nothing wrong, they had still chosen to do nothing when their fellow clan members colluded with the enemies!

The atmosphere in the hall grew increasingly stifling.

The higher-ups present felt as if they were sitting on needles and panicking like crazy. Some broke out in cold sweat, some had blank looks in their eyes, and some looked crushed. Although they sported various looks, all of it clearly reflected the same state of turmoil in their hearts.

“You guys…have really done it now!”

Lin Xun kept the scroll. His black eyes looked over all of them as ice-cold killing intent poured out of his body like a tide.

More than ten years ago, a bloody incident occurred in the Lin Clan that nearly wiped out all of the main clan’s bloodline.

Back then, the four branch clans had also colluded with others to conduct the despicable act of dividing up the Lin Clan’s assets.

Lin Xun never imagined that the same events would nearly repeat themselves again today.

Lin Huaitang definitely deserved to be cut into a million pieces. He had secretly contacted the other three branch clans while egging on the North Light Lin Clan higher-ups to work together and secretly fan the flames to topple Lin Zhong from power and seize control of Mind Cleansing Peak!

It was a devious plan to seize control of Mind Cleansing Peak by attacking from both the inside and outside. Lin Huaitang had sought to join forces with the other three branch clans and seize Mind Cleansing Peak, becoming the new leaders of the Lin Clan!

Lin Xun did not dare to imagine what would have happened if he arrived a little later. By then, Mind Cleansing Peak would have welcomed a new dynasty and it would have been too late even if he tried to save it!

Murderous intent violently churned in Lin Xun’s heart, threatening to break out of control. It showed just how much the name list had affected him.
