"How could this be?"
Ye Nantian spun his head sharply, his eyes filled with disbelief the moment he saw Lin Feng.
"How did he find this place so quickly?"
Lin Feng released Ye Lingling, whom he was holding, and slowly walked forward.
"I think I just heard someone say they wanted to eat Heartbreak Grass, was that you?"
He spoke with a calm expression but an undeniable aura.
Hearing this, Ye Nantian's face instantly became awkward, and his gaze couldn't help but size Lin Feng up and down.
Dugu Yan was full of confusion, her eyes darting back and forth between the two.
"Why didn't I hear that? What exactly is going on?"
Then, she couldn't help but ask.
"Lin Feng, please don't make things difficult for my grandpa; he was just momentarily confused."
Ye Lingling, who was standing by, hurriedly stepped forward, her eyes filled with anxiety and worry, pleading for her grandpa.
Hearing Ye Lingling's plea, Lin Feng looked at Ye Nantian, and his expression softened a little, but his tone remained firm.
"I know you're worried about Lingling's safety, but this kind of thing is a one-time occurrence and won't happen again."
"Little Feng, you're still young; you don't know the dangers of the Upper Three Sects."
"Also, Spirit Hall's power is immense, and their methods are ruthless. Lingling is only safe with me."
Ye Nantian frowned, his expression solemn, and he earnestly defended himself.
Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
"I don't know? Haha, it just so happens that Lingling doesn't know yet, so I'll explain it properly."
"You've heard of Senior Xiao Yan, the fire-element super Douluo who appeared in Spirit Hall a few days ago, right?"
He gave Ye Lingling a reassuring look, then looked at Ye Nantian and said lightly.
"Of course, hasn't this matter been widely known across the continent for a while now?"
"When I first heard it, I couldn't believe that someone on this continent actually dared to provoke Spirit Hall."
"However, after seeing the orders issued by Spirit Hall's various branch halls, I realized that it was actually true."
Hearing this, Ye Nantian nodded, looking puzzled.
"That's right, Senior Xiao Yan, the super Douluo who appeared at Spirit Hall that day, is certainly real."
"Moreover, the hundred-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast Fire Dragon that appeared in Flame Valley two days ago is his pet."
Lin Feng continued.
Hearing this, Ye Nantian's mouth dropped open in shock, and he turned to look at Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan in disbelief.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling also nodded when their eyes met Ye Nantian's.
They knew about this matter.
"Now, Senior Xiao Yan has already taken Lin Jian, a disciple of my Lin family, as his apprentice."
"Furthermore, yesterday he sent me with a token to handle the aftermath of the competition at the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."
"Currently, the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect has agreed not to publicize the matters of Flame Valley and the competition."
"If they dare to violate this, they will surely be dealt with by Senior Xiao Yan."
"…"
Lin Feng slowly recounted his experience at the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the matters between Xiao Yan and Spirit Hall.
His voice was steady and powerful, and every word he spoke sent shivers down everyone's spines.
Ye Nantian was even more dumbfounded, the shock on his face growing more intense.
As for Ye Lingling, who learned that the situation between the Lin family and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect would not worsen, her heart, which had been hanging, finally settled.
A long-lost smile of joy appeared on her face.
Dugu Yan also heard these details for the first time, and thinking of the dangers involved, she couldn't help but feel a lingering fear, her face turning slightly pale.
"Lingling has her own path to walk; not everyone is willing to spend their entire life in a small corner."
"Moreover, not everyone has the talent to break through to Titled Douluo just by cultivating diligently."
Lin Feng looked at Ye Nantian and said with a firm and sincere gaze.
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Ye Nantian couldn't help but feel a surge of doubts, secretly pondering.
What does he mean by that?
Does he think I can break through to Titled Douluo?
Why don't I know I have this talent?
I merely chose to live in seclusion to protect my life.
As an owner of the Nine-Hearted Begonia Spirit, if I'm not careful, I might be captured by some unknown powerhouse for healing one day.
Ye Nantian remained silent for a long time, finally sighing.
"Alas! Perhaps the Lin family truly has the ability to resist the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Perhaps letting Lingling stay in the Lin family isn't necessarily very dangerous.
"Grandpa, come back with us."
Ye Lingling looked at him expectantly and said.
"Forget it, I won't go. I wish you happiness, Lingling."
Ye Nantian showed a tired smile, looking as if he had found some release.
His most cherished granddaughter had also found something worth doing and had new people to protect her.
As for him, he was already old; it was time for him to retire.
"Grandpa!"
Ye Lingling's eyes were filled with disappointment.
Lin Feng looked at the disappointed Ye Lingling, feeling a bit helpless.
In fact, he had long anticipated that someone with Ye Nantian's personality would not easily agree.
He turned and walked forward, gently patting Ye Lingling's shoulder to comfort her:
"Don't be sad, let's go back first."
Ye Lingling lowered her head, tears shimmering in her eyes, and silently followed behind Lin Feng.
Lin Feng took Ye Lingling and leaped onto the ground, their figures disappearing into the sunlight.
Ye Nantian stood blankly in the underground chamber, looking at the hole above his head, through which a beam of sunlight passed.
Instead, he couldn't help but feel a growing sense of worry.
The power of Spirit Hall and the appearance of the super Douluo made him feel an unprecedented pressure.
He couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart.
He originally thought the Upper Three Sects were strong enough, but now the tricky part was that even a super Douluo was involved in this matter.
This continent was becoming increasingly chaotic.
"No, I must leave here quickly."
Ye Nantian said subconsciously.
But where to go?
So, several places quickly flashed through his mind.
Spirit Hall, the Lin family, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect were definitely out of the question.
The Clear Sky Sect had also offended Spirit Hall, and there might be a major war in the future, so it wasn't safe either.
As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, it seemed not to participate in power struggles, so it should be relatively safe.
"I'll go near the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Thinking this, he made up his mind and muttered to himself.
On the other side.
In Flame Valley, Lin Feng, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan entered the clan territory.
Seeing this, the clan members immediately gathered around, their faces beaming with irrepressible joy.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master brought Miss Ye Lingling back."
Cheers and greetings instantly intertwined.
Lin Ye had been waiting here for a long time, and seeing Lin Feng and the others return safely, his eyes were filled with relief.
He quickly stepped forward, patted Lin Feng's shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Lin Feng, you're finally back. I already know about the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect matter. I will instruct the clan members to strengthen their defenses."
"Lin Jian, from today onwards, you are Senior Xiao Yan's disciple."
Lin Ye turned to look at Lin Jian, his expression carrying a hint of expectation, and said solemnly.
Lin Jian's eyes instantly flashed with surprise and excitement. He quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and nodded in response:
"Thank you, Clan Head, thank you, Young Master!"
"Young Master, when can I meet Senior Xiao Yan? I really want to learn powerful skills from him quickly."
Then, he looked at Lin Feng with eager anticipation, his eyes sparkling, and asked urgently.
Lin Feng looked at Lin Jian's impatient expression and comforted him with a smile:
"There will be a chance. When the time is right, you will definitely meet Senior Xiao Yan."
