Chapter 9 Bystanders

"Dad, why are you here?"

Lin Yang was a little surprised. His father rarely took care of him. Even in the courtyard where he lived, his father rarely came.

Today he actually came to the place where he practiced, carrying a food box.

Could it be that something happened?

Lin Yang looked at Lin Muren's melancholy expression and moved slightly.

"Go in and talk." Lin Muren forced a smile, carried the food box into the courtyard, and came to Lin Yang.

"I heard A Liu said that you haven't eaten for two days. This is not okay. Come and eat something."

Lin Muren entered the wooden house minding his own business and saw the messy books on the table. He simply put down the food box and took out the vegetables and placed them on the floor.

Because of the cold weather, several dishes were a little cold, but they were Lin Yang's favorite foods on weekdays.

Lin Yang took the chopsticks from his father, and the two of them sat on the floor like this.

"I didn't prepare wine. If you want to practice martial arts, you can't drink. It just so happens that you have tea here." Lin Muren reached for the table next to him and took down the teapot and cup.

Lin Yang quickly took it and filled the empty cup.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Lin Yang asked doubtfully.

"Let's have something to eat first, and then we'll talk after eating." Lin Muren didn't answer, but said, minding his own business and picking up the tea cup.

Lin Yang had no choice but to nod and start eating.

He felt very hungry at first, but this meal tasted like chewing gum.

Within a quarter of an hour, Lin Yang put down his chopsticks, took a sip of tea, wiped his mouth, and then looked at his father, Lin Muren.

"I'm going to take the Lin family to move out of Wanliu City and go to Suhe City."

At this time, Lin Muren suddenly spoke.

Lin Yang's expression suddenly darkened.

Sure enough, because of this incident, that guy Ma Qihan finally found his father's head.

"Dad, did Ma Qihan force you to make a choice?"

Lin Muren was silent for a moment, but then he suddenly reacted and his eyes were surprised.

Since Lin Yang already knew his name, it meant that Ma Qihan had also approached Lin Yang.

Lin Yang knew what his father wanted to ask, so he nodded.

"Yes, he also approached me, but I refused." He said with a calm expression, as if he did not take Ma Qihan's coercion seriously.

"Dad, you are the head of the Lin family. You should know that once we move out of Wanliu City, all your efforts over the years will be in vain. It will not be that easy to gain a foothold in Suhe City.

Besides, as for the second sister, do you really have the heart to cut off contact with her?"

Lin Muren looked at Lin Yang in surprise.

It really surprised him that these words could come out of Lin Yang's mouth.

Based on Lin Yang's character and behavior, he doesn't care about family affairs at all.

It seems that the crisis that the Lin family has encountered in these days has also made him grow up.

Lin Muren took a deep breath and was happy that his son could think of this.

But the purpose of his coming today was just to inform, not to discuss with Lin Yang.

I only thought that after I severed contact with my second daughter Lin Daihua, Lin Yang was really the only one left in the Lin family, so I wanted to come and see his incompetent son in the past.

Lin Muren looked sad.

"I am the head of the Lin family, and I must consider the Lin family.

Nowadays, no one in Wanliu City is willing to wade into the troubled waters of our Lin family, and no one can solve the crisis of our Lin family. The only people we can rely on are immortal cultivators."

"There is no other choice!"

"Where is the Criminal Division? Isn't it beyond the control of the imperial court?" Lin Yang couldn't help but ask.

Wanliu City is under the jurisdiction of Ju State, and the Criminal Apprehension Department is an important government office in every region, directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

If something like this happened in Wanliu City, why hasn't the Criminal Investigation Department heard any relevant news until now?

Lin Yang was very confused about this.

But Lin Muren immediately answered his question.

"Of course the imperial court can take care of it, but it is difficult to implement the dispatch in a short period of time. It is impossible for us to place our hopes on the imperial court's dispatch."

Lin Muren sighed deeply and stood up from the ground.

"I have decided on this matter. We will move out of Wanliu City in two days. Master Ma will help us eliminate that evil cultivator. You don't need to worry about other things. Just prepare to clean up."

After saying this, he was about to leave, but when he was about to reach the door, he was suddenly stopped by Lin Yang.

"Dad, if I said that I could deal with that evil cultivator and protect the Lin family, would you believe me?"

Lin Yang's eyes were full of determination and confidence.

Lin Muren turned around and was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Yang's eyes.

It was hard for him to imagine that these words were spoken by his own son. In a daze, he suddenly felt that Lin Yang seemed a little strange. This kind of powerful aura should not appear in him.

Is this still the same Lin Yang who has always been a willful playboy who only cares about having fun and not making progress?

Lin Muren shook his head gently, how could this be possible? It must be that he was too tired these days and misunderstood.

"I believe it, but what are you using to protect the Lin family, and what are you using to deal with that evil cultivator? Is it just because you have been practicing martial arts these days?"

He had a bitter look on his face, thinking of his eldest son, whose funeral affairs had not been settled yet.

"Give up. Your elder brother has been practicing for more than twenty years, but in the end he couldn't even protect himself... No matter they are immortal cultivators or demons, they are not something we mortals can deal with."

"Practice martial arts?" Lin Muren smiled self-deprecatingly.

"If practicing martial arts is useful, what else should a cultivator do?"

After saying that, he prepared to walk out, obviously not taking Lin Yang's words to heart.

Lin Yang looked at his father's leaving figure, hesitated to speak, and shook his head.

At this moment, his eyes suddenly froze and he looked outside the door.

A Liu ran over in panic and threw the dog into the mud outside the courtyard. He raised his head anxiously and shouted.

"Master... Young Master... Oh no, the monster is here!"

Lin Muren hadn't reacted yet, and was about to ask Ah Liu to explain clearly what happened, but suddenly he felt his eyes blur, as if a shadow was passing by.

Lin Yang appeared in front of him in an instant, looking towards the northeast with burning eyes.

"Yang'er, you..." Lin Muren was shocked and was about to speak.

But Lin Yang raised his hand and made a move, and the huge internal force pulled A Liu over in an instant, and he came closer.

At the same time, a strange black mist appeared at A Liu's original position, and two blood-red lantern-like eyes stared at Lin Yang and the others.

Ah Liu was immediately frightened to death. Although he didn't know why he was dragged into the courtyard, if he had been slower just now, he might have died.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came.

"Did you show up at this time? Well, my patience is limited. How do you think about it?"

Ma Qihan, wearing a white robe, appeared on the wooden roof, looking down at the people below, looking at the Lin family father and son with a playful look.

"Master Immortal! Hurry..."

When Lin Muren saw Ma Qihan's appearance, he breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lin Yang reached out to stop him.

"This is my Lin family's family matter, so I won't bother outsiders." He glanced at Ma Qihan coldly.

"good very good!"

When Ma Qihan heard this answer, a cold look suddenly appeared on his face.

"Since you are so courageous, let me see how you solve the problem in front of you."

"By the way, I'd like to remind you that this evil spirit's current strength is probably on par with mine. I hope you can still speak arrogantly later, haha."

He sneered and crossed his arms, just like a bystander.

"Despicable mortals, you really think that martial arts can deal with evil spirits. Please don't kneel in front of me and beg me later."
