Yulong Yan finished speaking and directly tore open space to head to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield.
Hou Yi glanced at Shang Tang and Kuafu and said, "Kuafu, keep an eye on the seal of the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Emperors should be awakening inside one after another."
Afterward, they each departed.
The Eight-Headed Serpent caught up to Lin Zhan, who was held in Di Xin's hand, and said, "Uncle, take care. Your nephew offers his respects."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhan's eyes lit up. He turned to Di Xin and said, "Ancestor, wait a moment. The gift-giver has arrived."
Seeing Lin Zhan pause, the Eight-Headed Serpent approached obsequiously and said, "Since ancient times, when drinking water, one never forgets the well-digger. It is Uncle's guidance that has brought me to where I am today. Knowing that Uncle is busy dealing with those bastards of the Ten Thousand Races, and that leading troops into battle is the most expensive endeavor, my humble offering is but a small token of my filial piety. Hehe, a mere token."
Lin Zhan accepted the spatial bag handed over by the Eight-Headed Serpent. He found that the contents were not numerous but were all exceptionally precious: three King-tier peak King Crystals, a massive pure energy stone, two King-tier Soul Stones, and a few rare spiritual herbs.
Lin Zhan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Haha, then I shall accept it gladly. Eight-Headed, I heard that the head of a sovereign would be of great help to you. After we return, you can directly go and clean up Xuanbird Mountain. I will have a word with Ancestor Shang Tang and get you the head of a high-ranking sovereign so you can advance your cultivation level."
The Eight-Headed Serpent chuckled, "Thank you, Uncle, for your guidance. Uncle, rest assured, if there are any more peculiar items in the future, your nephew will be the first to bring them to you. I will now return to clean up Xuanbird Mountain for our Great Shang. Goodbye, Uncle. Take care."
Di Xin watched the Eight-Headed Serpent disappear in a flash. He turned to Lin Zhan and said, "Not bad, kid. People are already sending you gifts when you arrive at the Royal Court. You're navigating things better than I am now."
Lin Zhan chuckled, "Where did that come from, Ancestor? No matter how well I fare, I'm still under the banner of our Great Shang. Otherwise, who would take me seriously? Ancestor, I heard from Ancestor Yan and Ancestor Shang Tang that you are about to be promoted to Human Emperor."
Di Xin nodded, "Actually, I could be promoted now. It's just that I want to accumulate more destiny. Ideally, I would have enough foundation to directly ascend to the realm of a foundational Human Emperor. Otherwise, once promoted to Human Emperor, it will be difficult to advance further."
Lin Zhan pondered for a moment, then his eyes twinkled, "Ancestor, then don't be in such a hurry. When I go to war, I will definitely take down the tens of millions of allied forces from the Ten Thousand Races led by Rommel and Ye Lao Er. With such great merit our family will earn for humanity, we will receive an even stronger feedback of destiny. Then you can be promoted, right?"
Di Xin patted Lin Zhan's head, "It's good you have this intention, kid. Those tens of millions of allied forces from the Ten Thousand Races aren't tens of millions of pigs that you can just slaughter at will. Let's be more cautious."
"Ancestor, when have you ever seen me do something that harmed myself? If I didn't have the confidence, would I do this? Ancestor Han Xin has already helped me form a main combat legion of 10 million. I also plan to form a Mo Dao Soldier legion. The latest integrated weapons are also in development. If you have the chance, you should help me ask Ancestor Ying Zheng to increase the number of Model Fives to 100."
Upon hearing Lin Zhan's words, Di Xin trembled all over, "Kid, are you drunk or do you have a fever? These things require so many resources! Even our Huaxia can't accumulate this much in a year."
Lin Zhan looked at his exasperated Ancestor and said, "I rented out Ancestor Da Yu, and with the kidnappings these past few times, I've obtained resources equivalent to about 400 million Lord-tier crystal cores. Oh, and 1000 Quasi-King crystal core resources. Is that enough?"
Di Xin stared at Lin Zhan for a long time before finally speaking, "Good child, what worries me most is that humanity declined under my leadership. Now that our family has produced such a troublemaker like you, I can finally wash away the shame. Excellent."
Amidst Di Xin's hearty laughter, the two returned to the Lin family ancestral residence.
Daji, Liu Ruolan, Ouyang Xinlan, An Rongrong, and the other female family members were sewing the ceremonial robes for Zhang Lingxiu and Lin Zhan's wedding. Amidst the occasional teasing from the elders, Zhang Lingxiu's shy laughter could be heard.
As Di Xin and Lin Zhan landed, Daji instantly teleported over, "My King, Zhan'er is back so quickly?"
"My dear consort, get ready and bring the children. Let's accompany Zhan'er to school as well," Di Xin said with a hearty laugh.
Ouyang Xinlan and the others immediately stated that they were not students of the academy, so it would be inappropriate for the entire family to move to Gao Wu to live.
Lin Zhan began to persuade them, "Grandmother, two mothers, we can't afford not to go this time. If I'm not mistaken, an assassination targeting our family, and especially me, has already begun. Didn't you see that Ancestor himself has come to protect me this time?" Su Dan Novel Network
Seeing the worried looks from the elders, Lin Zhan gave Di Xin a look.
Daji saw their exchanged glances and took over the conversation, "Don't worry, little ones. The King and I will protect you. As long as no King appears, no one can harm a single hair on your heads."
Amidst the worried gazes of the elders, Lin Zhan once again brought his entire family back to Gao Wu.
Looking at the villa on the mountaintop, Lin Zhan said helplessly, "Ancestor, this won't be enough space."
After Lin Zhan and his group arrived, Daji summoned 20 diamond-level maids from the Qingqiu Fox Clan and the Lin family. Coupled with the elders and cousins' wives, this added over 40 people.
Daji chuckled, "It's alright, Zhan'er. Watch as your Grandma, the Ancestor, expands it for you."
With a wave of her hand, the two unoccupied villas beside them, along with bulging earth and stones, slowly moved closer. In a short while, the mountaintop transformed into four interconnected attached villas.
Looking at the newly acquired land, maids from the Qingqiu Fox Clan stepped forward. With a wave of their jade hands, they scattered seeds of various flowers and plants. A flash of green light appeared, and various flowers and spiritual fruits miraculously grew in March, just after the cold winter had passed.
For a time, the entire mountaintop attached villa complex was filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
Di Xin muttered softly, "What's the use of these things that aren't for eating or drinking? It's better to grow more fruits and vegetables."
Sensing Daji's gaze, Di Xin quickly pulled Lin Zhan and said loudly, "Haha, Zhan'er, I heard you have a lot of good wine. I've almost finished all the fine wines you gave me last time, Ancestor. You need to replenish my stock this time!"
Lin Zhan quickly agreed, "Don't worry, Ancestor, it's all prepared."
In his heart, however, he secretly thought: So this old fellow is also afraid of his wife.
