Lin Beichen put down the teacup and calmly looked at Zhao Weinan.
"I just simply consider you a friend and sympathize with your circumstances.
From now on, everyone in Zhongcheng Hall will listen to you. They will treat you as the new Patriarch, and you won’t have to worry about being arranged for a blind date anymore. When you meet a good man in the future, you can marry him.
As for family matters, leave them to Zhao Wuxing. He’s eager to prove himself, so why not give him a chance? You can free yourself from family affairs, live a carefree life with your husband and children."
Zhao Weinan heard this and silently bowed her head.
She said these things just to express her feelings to Lin Beichen, and even wanted to give Lin Beichen a signal.
As long as Lin Beichen nodded, she would willingly lie on his bed.
How could Lin Beichen not understand this?
Zhao Wuxing?
Once, she thought Zhao Wuxing was the most perfect man in the world.
Zhao Wuxing had a chiseled face, a nearly perfect physique, noble family background, extraordinary skills, and numerous accolades.
Such a man, isn’t he supposed to be the perfect man?
But now?
The man who once made her blush and her heart race with just one glance now, in her eyes, had lost his aura, leaving only a decent-looking face.
People are different.
Some people strive to shine, but they are just a tiny spark.
Others, who don’t care about their light, even the slightest glow from them is enough to illuminate the entire galaxy.
Lin Beichen told her to find a good man to marry, but she had already met the best, so how could any other man catch her eye?
Longhua Mountain.
Wei Xingshan’s place of cultivation, also the legendary Dragon Transformation Land.
A hundred years ago, the first recorded peak extraordinary expert was born here.
This person possessed monstrous strength, it is said he could split mountains and break stones with his fists effortlessly.
Back then, there were only written records. It is said that someone tried to use the recording equipment of that time, but the old equipment couldn’t capture his form at all.
In the old drawings, there were only shattered stones, but no sign of the opponent.
Because of these flaws, later people doubted the authenticity of that footage, claiming that explosives were pre-placed on the mountain to achieve the illusion of punching stones into pieces.
Others didn’t believe, but Wei Xingshan believed.
His left arm was wrapped in bandages, due to the loss of one arm, many techniques were unusable, which broke his body balance. He had to retrain to adapt to his current body.
Only his right hand was wrapped in chains, the other end tied to a copper ox weighing a thousand pounds.
He pulled the chain tight, his whole body tensed with strength, veins bulging on his head, straining with all his might, yet not resting for a moment.
In a corner of the training ground, stood a woman in tight clothes.
Beside the woman stood an elder with a cane.
"Wei Xingshan’s recovery is pretty good. Also, I have found a suitable arm through some channels, and tomorrow I can help him reattach the limb."
The elder said softly.
"Elder Wei, this limb replacement opportunity was for you, yet you gave it to Wei Xingshan. Your leg..."
The woman looked ashamed.
"Wei Hongzhu, everything is for Longhua Mountain. Wei Xingshan is our mountain’s last hope. His talent is the best, and he knows how to fight desperately!
If he’s ruined, what use is it if I can stand up again?
I’m already old. I hope to see Longhua Mountain flourish again before I die so that I can face our ancestors."
The elder said lightly:
"Besides, over the years, my vitality has declined. Walking the hard path, it’s impossible to make further progress. However, I’ve discovered some ancient books left by our ancestors in the last two years, one of which contains a Qi Cultivation Skill. Give me a few more months, and I should be able to make a breakthrough."
Wei Hongzhu listened quietly, but the sadness in her eyes did not diminish.
"It’s all Lin Beichen’s fault. If he hadn’t injured my senior brother, we wouldn’t be like this."
The events at the Starry Sky Association had already spread through various channels to all the major families.
There were both recorded messages and video materials.
The girl had never been to the Starry Sky Association, but the footage was exceptionally clear.
Lin Beichen single-handedly destroyed Zhongcheng Hall.
This matter shocked all the families.
Many people were assessing Lin Beichen’s destructive power.
Wei Hongzhu was not an important person in the family, nor did she have grand thoughts.
Her whole heart was devoted to Wei Xingshan, but she intensely hated Lin Beichen.
"Just say these things here, don’t talk about them outside, you’ll cause trouble."
Elder Wei said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Wei Hongzhu pursed her lips, showing a trace of displeasure on her pretty and stubborn face.
"Who knows if he used forbidden drugs? At such a young age, to kill Zhao Tianjie, does he dare say he has no issues at all?
Elder, in my opinion, this guy is likely an experiment from some laboratory!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Wei fell silent.
Lin Beichen’s situation was enigmatic.
His condition was too complex.
For over a hundred years, there hadn’t been anyone like him.
Even Longhua Mountain’s ancestor, although incredibly strong at the time, didn’t suddenly appear like a monkey from a crevice but received a full inheritance, possessing over two hundred years of power at a young age.
Behind the ancestor’s strength was a tragic story of ten peak experts sacrificing their lives voluntarily.
