Chapter 576: Chapter 577 Yuanling Commerce

“If the transcended elders, grandfathers, fathers, and mothers were to take action, the Yun family’s defeat wouldn’t be a difficult matter,” Lin Qian stood up, looked at the seniors who followed his grandfather, and spoke slowly.

“Your concerns are nothing more than that the Yun family’s territory in the Central Domain is vast, and that once the war starts, we won’t have enough manpower to cope.”

“However, when it comes to manpower, you need not worry, my Huaxia Empire is never short of people.”

After Lin Qian finished speaking, he just quietly watched the people from the Yun family in front of him, waiting for their response.

After hearing Lin Qian’s words, these people did not react for a long while, but then they chuckled.

“Young Master Lin, it is not that I am mocking you. Perhaps you have built your own forces in the Southern Domain, but the Central Domain is not the same as the Southern Domain. Let’s not even talk about whether you have enough people; just in terms of strength alone, I am afraid you won’t be able to deal with the people from the Yun family,” said the Transcendence Realm elder who first advised Yun Fan, smiling at Lin Qian.

Although there was no hint of ridicule in his tone, he treated Lin Qian as unknowledgeable about the situation in the Central Domain.

“Young man, it’s truly wonderful,” the elder said with a light chuckle, his eyes looking at Lin Qian with great kindness.

“Yun Wu, my grandson’s force is known as the Huaxia Empire, which is now causing quite a stir in the Central Domain. He is not merely managing some small force in the Southern Domain; all one thousand nine hundred and seventy-two states of the entire Southern Domain are now his territory,” Yun Fan said with a smile upon hearing Yun Wu’s words, from the head seat, “Do not underestimate my grandson; even I, as his grandfather, might not compare to him.”

As soon as Yun Fan’s words came out, the entire Council Hall fell into instant silence, and the people present seemed to be shocked.

They knew very well whom they were following; Yun Fan was not someone who would lie to deceive them.

“Have you really unified the entire Southern Domain, Young Master Lin?” Yun Wu, who recovered the quickest, couldn’t help but ask out loud.

Lin Qian nodded, not avoiding acknowledging the fact: “Indeed, when the Huaxia Empire emerged, it was targeted and provoked by other forces in the Southern Domain. To settle the trouble, I conquered the entire Southern Domain.”

“My goal is to unify the entire Soul Martial Continent. Conquering just the entirety of the Southern Domain is hardly something worth boasting about.”

A minor affair? Unifying the entire Soul Martial Continent?

The group, led by Yun Wu, now looked at Lin Qian with the same astonishment as one would a monster.

“Too young…” Yun Wu murmured again with amazement, his state of heart completely different from before.

Aside from being astonished by Lin Qian’s achievements, everyone was also surprised by the ambitious goal of unifying the Soul Martial Continent.

“All right, the reason for calling everyone here was merely to state this matter. Go and prepare yourselves. Soon, you will hear news about the Huaxia Empire, and then you will understand,” finally, Yun Fan waved his hands to the crowd, signaling the end of the meeting.

The people left the Council Hall with various emotions, faces still showing astonishment.

The spread of news in the Central Domain was clearly much faster than in the Southern Domain.

Just three days later, the story of the last Emperor of the Huaxia Empire, Long Aotian, had already spread throughout the entire Central Domain, and the fact that the Yun family’s ancestors were rebels who joined with despicable foreign races, was also wildly spreading to various places.

Moreover, the news that Lin Qian, the heir of the Huaxia Empire with a terrifying history of five hundred billion years, had arrived in the Central Domain was also spreading.

The fact that Lin Qian was attacking the Yun family to punish the rebels was quickly publicized, and people were looking forward to it with great anticipation.

They were eager to see just what sort of strength the so-called Huaxia Empire truly possessed, and how the Yun family planned to resist Lin Qian’s assault.

Moreover, Lin Qian was the grandson of the widely discussed Yun Monarch from the Yun family. The conflict between the two parties was indeed a spectacle.

Bang!

Lin Qian was in the middle of refining his body in the courtyard when the door suddenly burst open, and a man with a pair of small whiskers on his face rushed into his yard.

At that moment, Lin Qian’s body was smeared with a potion, fiercely burning with surging green flames that continuously scorched his flesh to refine it.

With the advancement in Realm, Lin Qian’s own physical advantages could not be neglected.

Only by doing so could he withstand the greater fluctuations from Sky Trace and from Xuanhuan Star summon more powerful beings from the Huaxia Empire.

“Hmm?” An unexpected visitor suddenly barged into the courtyard, causing Lin Qian to open his eyes in confusion, and he looked forward to seeing the man who had entered.

Even though he was refining his body, even if he were not in a state of cultivation, Lin Qian could still manage this feat–such was the excellence of the Huaxia Empire’s potions.

The man who entered the courtyard bore an extreme resemblance to his maternal grandfather and looked strikingly like his mother, Yun Yunyan. If Lin Qian couldn’t guess who it was, it could only mean his brain was fried.

“Uncle, isn’t it a bit impolite to barge into your nephew’s dwelling like this?” Lin Qian said with a light chuckle.

His parents were able to elope successfully in part thanks to his uncle’s help. Otherwise, Lin Qian wouldn’t be here.

Lin Qian held a favorable impression of the man before him.

Following the man into the courtyard was an old man with a powerful presence who Lin Qian also recognized: Yun Fu, a servant who had been with his grandfather since childhood, with extraordinary talent.

When Lin Qian was once afflicted by the Yun family’s Array, he had seen Yun Fu while counteracting the Array.

“Uncle Fu!” Lin Qian nodded in greeting.

“My dear nephew, your reputation has soared lately,” said Yun Qingfeng with a broad smile as he walked up and put an arm around Lin Qian’s shoulder, getting some of the potion on himself.

The potion ignited instantly, causing Yun Qingfeng’s expression to change dramatically as he sucked in a breath of cold air.

“Sss!” In the next moment, Yun Qingfeng shouted, “Qianer, what is this stuff you’ve smeared on yourself? It burns so painfully upon contact, yet you act as if nothing’s wrong.”

“Fire-refining Potion, used to temper the physique. For your nephew, this pain is nothing much.”

Seeing Lin Qian’s nonchalant expression, Yun Qingfeng shook his head: “When your mother described you, I already had an inkling that you were a little monster, but I didn’t expect you to be a complete freak.”

“Haha, don’t forget that when the Yun family tried to locate the young master using the Array, they seemed to have the tables turned on them. The master in charge of the Array burst and died.”

“But it’s good timing that you’ve come back, Uncle; I happen to have something I’d like to ask you.” Lin Qian suddenly leaned in with a mysterious air, asking, “How is the situation with Yuanling Commerce right now?”
