The Prodigies War-Chapter 1417 Terrify the World

In the eyes of the big wigs in the capital city, Huangfu Shao Yu was a legendary figure who they looked up to and even revered because of his power and status.

Thanks to him, the Wang Clan, which had originally been only a second-rate force, had leaped to the peak of first-rate in just over ten years.

It was also because he was present here that these important people made time in their busy schedules and gathered at the Wang Clan’s residence today, as Wang Tianxing alone was certainly not weighty enough to make that happen.

And yet, Huangfu Shao Yu was sent flying with a slap. His face was all red and swollen, his teeth fell out, and he was convulsing in pain!

Everyone was dumbstruck, feeling as though a huge mountain had collapsed in front of their eyes!

“You... How dare you...!” shrieked Wang Ziluan.

That’s right, how dare he?

Who gave him the guts?

“You’re seeking death!” Huangfu Shao Yu crawled up to his feet. His eyes popped out, and his voice fully showed how furious he was. Being slapped flying in front of a huge crowd was the kind of humiliation that he had never suffered before in his life, and it was driving him mad.

“Kneel.” A terrifying might suddenly burst out from Lin Xun.

With a heavy thud, Huangfu Shao Yu plopped down on all fours. His head was pressed against the floor, unable to lift up again.

He was berserk and wanted to scream, but not a single sound came out.

In the end, the seething anger caused him to faint.

The hearts of the crowd turned utterly cold at that moment. Their hair all stood up as they looked at Lin Xun with unconcealable fear.

Is this...really that fool?

Wang Tianxing suddenly recalled the news that his steward had just delivered about a bloody incident at a restaurant in the city, that a group of playboys had been killed by an unknown person.

He had said that someone had seen Lin Xun outside that restaurant.

At that time, Wang Tianxing had scoffed, thinking that it simply couldn’t be something a fool was capable of.

But now, Wang Tianxing felt like a fool. So many years had passed, but he had never been able to realize that Lin Xun was such a terrifying character!

“Looks like no one has anything else to say, so let’s start settling scores,” said Lin Xun indifferently.

Outside the great hall, snow was flying and the cold winds were bone-piercing.

But Lin Xun’s words, ringing in their ears, were even colder, so cold that their blood was about to freeze.

Settling scores!

How could this be anything good? f reenovelkiss.com

“Liu Hong, do you know your sin?” asked Lin Xun.

“What...what sin did I commit? Since you’re settling scores, you should at least tell me what I actually did wrong first,” said Liu Hong stiffly as he knelt on the ground.

Poof!

One sword qi swept out and cut off his head. Blood spurted out.

The crowd trembled.

This was the deputy city lord, but he was killed just like that!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun had shifted his gaze to the short and fat middle-aged man in luxurious clothes. “Qian Kunlong, do you know your sin?”

Qian Kunlong was the head of the Qian Clan. At the moment, he was so frightened that cold sweat was dripping down all over his skin. His lips quivered as he replied, “Please give me a second to think...”

Poof!

A sword qi sliced off his head.

Lin Xun appeared to have lost his patience, not even wanting a reply to his questions. His attitude instantly sent chills through the hearts of the people present.

“Lin Xun, kill us, and this city will never have a place for your clan!” roared a tall and thin old man angrily.

Poof!

His head was chopped off as soon as those words rang out.

Lin Xun didn’t even spare the old man a glance as he turned toward a fair-skinned, beardless, and scholarly middle-aged man. “Chu Huaizhen, do you know your sin?”

The latter plopped to his knees and wailed, “I know my sin, I know my sin! I stole from the Lin Clan! I promise I will return everything that I took. No, I’ll return ten times as much! Please forgive me just this once!”

“Your life will be spared, but not without punishment,” said Lin Xun.

A sword qi swept out and pierced through Chu Huaizhen’s qi sea, abolishing his cultivation.

Chu Huaizhen’s face dimmed, and he looked like he had suddenly aged many years. His lips twitched for a while before he finally said, “Thank you for sparing my life, Young Master Lin.”

Lin Xun gazed at the next person. Before he could speak, however, the other party dropped to his knees and kowtowed. “I know my mistakes! Please have mercy, Young Master Lin! I promise to return all the things I took from the Lin Clan several years ago!”

Thud, thud~

Immediately following, several people broke down under the oppressive and bloody atmosphere and fell to their knees, wailing and begging.

Eventually, Wang Tianxing also fell to the ground, his knees weak and his face bleak.

He knew that the Wang Clan was done for!

No matter how enraged and unwilling he was, he could only bow down.

No matter how unacceptable he found it, he could only kneel.

Because he was not alone. Behind him were many, many more clansmen. To preserve the Wang Clan’s bloodline, he had to make sacrifices.

“Father...” Wang Ziluan’s mind went blank. She fell on the ground paralyzed as if she had lost all her strength.

Back then, she had angrily gone to that teenager who everyone had regarded as a fool and unceremoniously ridiculed him, not expecting that ten years later, he would appear in front of her in such a way.

The husband she was proud of, the father she relied on, were all groveling at his feet!

At this moment, Wang Ziluan suddenly thought, if she had not withdrawn from that engagement, then all of this wouldn’t be happening, would it?

Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world.

Outside the hall, Xiaocao had also gone weak from all the shock. She knelt on the ground and stared blankly. Everything felt so surreal.

She had thought that Lin Xun would be killed by the Wang Clan’s experts and would not be able to leave alive.

But what was she seeing?

All the big names in the city had fallen at Lin Xun’s feet. Some were dead, and some would be better off dead...

Even Huangfu Shao Yu looked so weak, so small...

“He...has really changed...” Xiaocao was in a daze as endless remorse took over her heart. She knew the reason why Lin Xun didn’t kill her was because he wanted her to watch all this as it happened.

“Had you not returned my kindness with evil, just for the sake of those past years, I would have guaranteed you a worry-free life even if you served the Wang Clan. It’s a pity that you chose to disappoint me.”

A voice rang in Xiaocao’s ears and jolted her out of her trance. Raising her head, she saw Lin Xun standing right before her with an emotionless expression.

“Can I...can I remedy this?” She looked at him pleadingly.

“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. But you should know that from now on, as long as I’m alive, no one probably will dare to shelter you. If you want to survive, then you will only have yourself to rely on. Good luck.” Lin Xun left these words and walked away.

“Young Master, Young Master!!” Xiaocao bawled, wanting to chase after Lin Xun, but he was nowhere to be found.

There was only the blinding white of snow between heaven and earth!

......

On this day, the series of events occuring in the Wang Clan triggered an uproar in the entire city. Ceaseless cries of shock echoed in the snowy land.

Not in their wildest dreams could anyone have imagined that the young master of the Lin Clan, who had been a laughing stock for over twenty years, would avenge his parents in such a bloody manner!

And to everyone’s shock, many experts including Huangfu Shao Yu, Wang Tianxing, and Liu Hong would be trampled under one person’s feet like ants.

Many high-status people had died. Many had been crippled after having their cultivation ripped away.

Wang Ziluan was also dead, and her younger brother Wang Zilong had not been spared either, having been stabbed through his throat with a chicken bone. In his last breaths, his eyes had been wide open and filled with unwillingness.

He probably hadn’t expected the bone that he had thrown Lin Xun yesterday would be returned in this manner.

In short, many big names were crossed off today. In the following period of time, the power structure in Yujing City would witness a reshuffle.

The Wang Clan, whose power had been blotting out the sky for over a decade, had crumbled just like that...

After leaving the Wang Mansion, Lin Xun went back to the Lin Clan, who was still unclear about what he had done.

Lin Xun didn’t explain. Facing the clansmen who looked at him scorn, he only said, “I’ve avenged my parents, avenged this clan. As long as I’m alive, the Lin Clan won’t be destroyed. But your life and death will be none of my business in the future. Whoever dares to act using my banner, I’ll be ready to punish them if justice demands it!”

Then, he turned around and left.

To this, his clansmen sneered, and they just couldn’t wait for Lin Xun to hurry up and disappear so that they wouldn’t have to be embarrassed by this fool again.

As for acting under his banner, that was simply impossible. Who would act under the banner of a fool? It wasn’t like they had a screw loose in their brains.

However, when word spread around the city about what had happened to the Wang Clan, those Lin Clan’s members were dumbfounded. Regret, vexation, and unwillingness flooded their hearts.

“That good-for-nothing! He’s obviously this powerful, but he refused to show his true skills and just watched our clan fall into ruin! That bastard!”

“Hmph! No matter what, we are after all his family, so what if we use his name? Does he really dare to kill us all? Unless he’s not afraid to be bashed by the world and carry the infamy of killing his own family!”

Angry complaints and discussions played out in the Lin Clan.

Later on, someone mustered the courage to use his status as Lin Xun’s cousin and successfully took over a restaurant in the city.

After that, some people used his name to heedlessly expand the clan’s power. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝘸𝑒𝑏𝓃𝑜𝑣𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝑜𝓂

The Lin Family gradually rose from decay, and every clansman resumed living a comfortable and luxurious life.

This went on until one day, one of their juniors was killed in an argument. The murderer fled, and the furious Lin Clan could do nothing about it because they couldn’t find the murderer.

After that, the words that Lin Xun had said to his clansmen before leaving somehow spread all over the city.

Lin Xun actually drew a line with the Lin Clan?

All the major forces in the city were quick to learn about this.

From then on, the Lin Clan that had risen again began to suffer frequent setbacks. They didn’t get to enjoy their good life for long before their situation became precarious again.

They also realized that Lin Xun really no longer cared about them anymore...

They started loathing him. They were angry, helpless, and more than anything else, they regretted it immensely.

If they hadn’t expelled Lin Xun, then the Lin Clan would have been the king of Yujing City with him at the helm, right?

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets.

Fortunately for them, though, the world knew that Lin Xun came from the Lin Clan. Even though they knew he had friction with his clan and no longer paid attention to them, no one dared to go overboard for fear that it might draw him out.

This spared the Lin Clan from perishing despite them not having a day of peace in the later years.

Of course, these were all things of the far future.

On the day Lin Xun left the Lin Clan, he departed from the city and headed toward Qingyun Sect.

Three days later, the sect that was regarded as the number one power in the world was flattened by Lin Xun alone and went up in smoke.

The whole world was horrified!
