It concerned the benefits and interests of every collateral branch and so had to be properly resolved. Otherwise, it could lead to internal strife.

Lin Xun allowed Lin Zhong to take charge of the matter. He planned to discuss and consult with the higher-ups of the collateral branches before making any arrangements.

Additionally, Lin Xun made arrangements for cultivating the younger generation of the Lin Clan, revising the rules and regulations of the clan, and expanding and strengthening the Mind Cleansing Peak...

They were all affairs that a large clan had to first handle. If not properly arranged, troubles would arise sooner or later.

Fortunately, Lin Xun only had to provide a general framework to deal with those matters and then hand over the specific affairs to other people to take care of.

At the end of the clan meeting, Lin Xun announced something unexpected. It was regarding the successor of the head of the Lin Clan!

He announced that he might leave for a long period and had to hand over the position of the clan leader to someone in the clan to ensure the continued development of the Lin Clan.

He then announced the rules for competing for the position of the successor of the Lin Clan. The successor who could take on the huge responsibilities of the Lin Clan would be selected from the four collateral branches of the Lin Clan within ten years.

All clansmen from the four collateral branches could participate in the competition, but Lin Zhong would be the one deciding the result.

Lin Zhong held the Shattered Tragedy Spear, the treasured weapon of the clan, and would act as the guardian of the clan to assist the chosen clan leader with all his powers!

This important arrangement was made by Lin Xun and Lin Zhong after a long discussion.

They had no other choice. Lin Xun couldn’t watch over Mind Cleansing Peak all his life. He still had many matters that he needed to resolve. Based on that, the safest course of action was to select a new clan leader within ten years to take charge of the Lin Clan.

Upon hearing the announcement, the members of the four collateral branches of the Lin Clan were all completely stirred up. They almost couldn’t believe it.

Even Lin Beiguang, Lin Xixi and Lin Yunheng, the important figures of the older generation, were all frozen with shock.

No one imagined that Lin Xun would make plans and arrangements for choosing the next clan leader as soon as he took over the Lin Clan.

It proved that Lin Xun had no desire for the position of the clan leader.

Many important figures donned complicated looks. If they knew about that earlier, would they choose to fight against Lin Xun?

Everything happened because they viewed power too highly!

The rest of the clan members were filled with excitement and fighting spirit!

The Lin Clan had already shaken the Forbidden City. Its power was strong enough to deter the high clans from offending them.

As long as there was no accident, natural or man-made, the Lin Clan would soon return to the ranks of the high clans!

The one lucky enough to take charge of the Lin Clan and become the clan leader could be said to have achieved instant success!

They would become a character feared and respected by countless people in the Forbidden City and could sit on an equal footing with the noblemen!

That person would be born from the four collateral branches of the Lin Clan! Although ten years wasn’t considered a short period, who wouldn’t still be tempted by the position?

Lin Huaiyuan’s heart pounded.

Lin Beiguang, Lin Xixi and Lin Yunheng had already begun to plan how to cultivate a candidate capable of taking on the great responsibility of the Lin Clan in the next ten years.

However, they all knew that the competition would be difficult but also fierce.

None of the four collateral branches would sit and do nothing and allow the Lin Clan successor to emerge from the other collateral branches!

This was exactly the purpose of Lin Xun’s arrangement. He wanted the four collateral branches to compete!

Only a fierce competition could help cultivate and select a successor with the ability to take charge of the Lin Clan

Of course, Lin Xun also arranged for Lin Zhong to supervise them to prevent malicious intentions and internal strife.

……

After the clan meeting, Lin Xun headed to the ancestral land at the rear of Mind Cleansing Peak by himself. He stood silently in front of the memorial tablets of the Lin Clan ancestors for a long time.

The tables were engraved with the name of his great-grandfather Duke Daochen and the names of his parents, grandfather and other relatives.

They felt very familiar yet also very unfamiliar.

This was because he had never met them before.

But he knew that he had already integrated into the Lin Clan and become a direct descendant of the Lin Clan, so he needed to take care of some matters by himself.

For example, avenging his parents and relatives!

……

It was dusk, and the setting sun painted the sky a fiery red hue.

The area around the ancestral shrine was extremely peaceful and quiet.

When Lin Xun left, he saw Lin Tianlong, Lin Nianshan and Lin Feifeng who were imprisoned in the ancestral land.

Lin Xun calmly informed them about the clan meeting before he left.

Lin Tianlong and the others stood there in a daze, their expressions complicated and melancholic.

They had betrayed the clan and had been confined to the rear mountain to repent for their sins. They might never be able to leave there for the rest of their lives.

At first, they were bitter and resentful, but when they learned about Lin Xun’s arrangements for the next successor, they accepted their fate.

They even felt gratified and happy, knowing that someone from their clan might be at the helm of the Lin Clan in the future!

This was hope. It made them willingly stay there to repent for their sins. Even if they were to spend their entire life there, at least, there was still hope!

……

Following the clan meeting, Mind Cleansing Peak became busier and busier day by day. Everywhere was full of busy activities.

Spirit Vulture had been in closed-door cultivation, refining the Demon Tribulation Poison and restoring his cultivation.

Lin Zhong, Xiaoke and Third Old Zhu all had affairs to deal with and were incredibly busy every single day.

The clansmen from the collateral branches of the Lin Clan, the villagers of Feiyun Village and the servants on Mind Cleansing Peak were also very busy.

Everyone was filled with an indescribable fighting spirit. The Lin Clan had resolved their internal problems and fought off enemies. They seemed to have been reborn.

At least, the current Mind Cleansing Peak Lin Clan was known throughout the Forbidden City!

On the contrary, Lin Xun was very leisurely. Apart from training, he only welcomed and received some distinguished guests.

Additionally, he also penned letters to the Stone Cauldron Alms, the Ning Clan and the East Sea Ye Clan to express his gratitude.

After all, Fortune God Shi and the others had secretly protected him when he was facing off against Qin Cangjia, a Life Death Stage King. He would never forget their kindness.

As for Zhao Tailai, he hadn’t shown up at Mind Cleansing Peak. It was as though he had forgotten about what happened in Rotating Stars Hibernating Moon House.

Lin Xun found it a little strange at first, but he soon forgot about the matter.

Although Zhao Tailai didn’t come, Shen Tuo, the head lecturer of Qinglu Academy’s Rune Department, suddenly came to visit.

On the same day, Lin Xun left Mind Cleansing Peak with Shen Tuo on a carriage, heading for Qinglu Academy

It had been almost half a month since Lin Xun returned to the Forbidden City from the Spirit Burial Sea. As an instructor of the rune department, Lin Xun had neglected to resume his teaching duties at the rune department.

However, Shen Tuo reassured him that it was a trivial matter and that everyone understood his reason.

As the carriage passed through the central area of the Forbidden City, a fierce battle was being broadcast on the huge rune transmission light screen.

Wielding a jet-black spear, a youngster in a moon-white robe fiercely fought against six Cyclic Derivation cultivators in the air. The collision of the splendid beams of light produced terrifying but gorgeous shock waves.

Passersby all paused in front of the light screen, heads raised and staring unblinkingly at the duel shown on the screen. They all held their breaths as they watched and occasionally burst into surprised exclamations.

“That…”

Lin Xun was taken aback. Isn’t this my battle against the Cyclic Derivation cultivators that day?

“The news was first broadcast half a month ago, and it has been replayed countless times already. Even so, it still attracts a huge crowd of people every time.” Shen Tuo explained.

Even he lost his composure when he saw the battle for the first time.

In the current Forbidden City, anyone who hadn’t heard about the duel didn’t deserve to be a resident of the city!

That was the influential power of the battle. Even now, the aftereffect of the battle was still spreading through the city. More and more people came to learn about Lin Xun.

The young master is unrivaled, his brilliance fills the capital!

Everyone thought of Lin Xun when they heard that praise!

Many cultivators in the Forbidden City started to complain that Lin Xun was always in the limelight. No matter where they went, the inns, tea shops or in the streets, they always heard about him.

Even the singers in the brothel wrote lyrics and music about Lin Xun.

Lin Xun withdrew his gaze from the light screen and couldn’t help asking, “Brother Shen, what’s the matter? Why did you ask me to come to Qinglu Academy?”

Under Shen Tuo’s insistence, he started to call Shen Tuo ‘Brother’.

In Shen Tuo’s view, Lin Xun had already earned the respect of any rune master with his status as a rune founder. Moreover, Lin Xun was now a peerless genius who swept the capital with his brilliance.

Shen Tuo didn’t think he was worthy of being called Elder by Lin Xun anymore.
