Chapter 36: The Shocked Elders of the Lin Family

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Xu Ziqi had no intention of explaining the doubts of the Lin family elders. In terms of laws, if one knew, one would know. For those who didn’t know, they wouldn’t be able to understand even if she explained.

She was more surprised that Ban Feimeng and Lin Suxin, as expected of those who had come into contact with Senior Ye, were able to see through it.

The golden liquid, which was like flowing water, gradually faded and flowed into Lin Pingzhi’s injured area.

There were no shocking fluctuations or dazzling lights. The golden liquid that had settled down quickly disappeared. Along with it, the Abyss power that the Abyss lizard had left on Lin Pingzhi’s body also disappeared.

Without a sound, Lin Pingzhi’s injuries completely recovered. However, he had yet to wake up.

By the time everyone reacted, they saw the golden pocket watch disintegrate into dust that was hard to see with the naked eye.

“This is the law of time!”

Seeing this scene, an elder of the Lin family cried out in shock.

When the other elders heard this, they were immediately shocked and speechless.

One had to know that light and dark, these special magic elements, were already difficult to comprehend. Unless one was a special genius or had some fortuitous encounter, they would not be able to come into contact with them. However, the law of time was different. The law of time did not have any magic elements, the starting point was the law.

Below the level of a magister, one couldn’t comprehend the law of time on their own. Moreover, magisters and archmagisters had been cultivating the magic elements that they had comprehended when they were young all year round. Now that they had reached the level of the law of elements, it was difficult for them to accommodate new laws.

This led to a problem. If one could not come into contact with the law of time when they were young, they would not be able to come into contact with the law of time when they grew up.

If the two laws were not balanced, once they clashed within a mage’s body, the best thing to do was to find a graveyard and wait for death.

In history, many talented mages who were as dazzling as the stars tried to cultivate multiple laws in vain and killed themselves. Until now, very few people had cultivated two laws.

If it was someone like Xu Ziqi, who comprehended two magic elements right from the start would be better.

But even she did not dare to rashly come into contact with new laws, let alone storing the power of laws into a small pocket watch.

Time, space, chaos, order — these four laws did not have corresponding magic elements. They could only be forcefully comprehended. And the most difficult to control was the existence standing at the top of the pyramid, which could directly raise the lower and upper limits of a mage’s ability.

Moreover, these four laws could be used as characteristics and added to the magic a person had mastered.

Even the most ordinary fireball spell, with the addition of a random law’s characteristic, its power would be increased by more than five times.

But at this moment, such an example suddenly appeared in front of him. It was like a legend walking from history to reality.

It was unbelievable!

There was actually someone who could comprehend one of the most difficult laws and compress the power of time into the pocket watch. If one did not see it with their own eyes, they would not believe it at all. That was even more unreliable than the nonsense spoken by a drunkard.

At the same time, the Lin family elders were even more shocked and curious. Just what kind of existence was Senior Ye?

Since he had given pointers to a junior like Lin Suxin, could he give them pointers as well?

Xu Ziqi thought further ahead, her eyes were slightly absent-minded.

“Judging from the power of the laws contained in this pocket watch, Senior Ye should have completely grasped the law of time. It’s just that I don’t know if he has grasped the other three laws. Are the laws of light and dark in Senior Ye’s comprehension?”

In the room, no one made a sound. Everyone had their own thoughts, and their gazes would occasionally glance at Ban Feimeng and Lin Suxin.

These two people should have come into contact with that senior, so they naturally knew where the senior lived.

The Lin family’s elders were thinking about how to get the address. Lin Pingzhi, who had been lying on the bed without making any movements, suddenly turned sideways and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Then, he fell into a coma again, however, this time, his expression was much better.

Xu Ziqi came back to her senses. She looked at Lin Pingzhi and said indifferently, “Since the life force of the Lin family’s clan leader has stabilized, then it’s fine. Next, we should focus on hunting down that Abyss lizard. I’ll leave first.”

Halfway through turning around, Xu Ziqi turned back to look at the Great Elder. “Senior Ye likes peace, so he has been hiding among the ordinary people in the South City. He hasn’t left for all these years.”

“If one is lucky, they’ll naturally receive Senior Ye’s guidance. I don’t want anyone from the Lin family to rashly disturb the senior. If I find out, I’ll kill you with my own hands, even if I’m judged by the Mage Alliance.”

“As for these two little girls, don’t even think about it. If you really want to die, I don’t mind getting rid of you right now.”

Xu Ziqi’s expression suddenly changed, and she issued a stern warning. This was something that the Lin family elders hadn’t expected.

The Great Elder was also shocked. He had originally thought of looking for Senior Ye to try his luck to see if he could receive any guidance, but this thought was instantly extinguished.

Forget about receiving any pointers, he might be beaten to death and implicate the clan if he went to look for that senior.

“Senior Xu, I will restrain them.”

The Great Elder forced out a smile and made a promise.

The other elders didn’t dare to make a sound. In their hearts, they were even more envious of Lin Suxin and Ban Feimeng. To think that they could meet that senior and even get some pointers.

Seeing this, Xu Ziqi didn’t say anything else. Her figure gradually faded and finally disappeared.

The room fell into silence once again. The few elders at the edge of the Lin family sighed and took the lead to leave the room.

Now that the clan leader’s injuries had been treated, there was no need to worry about appointing a new clan leader. Coupled with Xu Ziqi’s warning, there was no longer a need to stay here. It was better to leave as soon as possible.

With someone taking the lead, the other elders left one after another. Only the Great Elder, Lin Suxin, and Ban Feimeng were left.

The Great Elder turned to Ban Feimeng and said with a smile, “Little girl from the Ban family, thank you for coming to deliver something this time. It’s my fault for being short-sighted.”

“Why don’t you stay for a meal today?”

It was not mealtime yet, and there were another three hours to go. Ban Feimeng was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses.

Treating her to a meal was an excuse. He probably wanted to send her away and had something to say in private.

She immediately shook her head and said, “No, I still have to go back and report to Senior Ye. I’ll visit another day. This time, it’s not my credit either.”

After saying that, she turned around and left the room, preparing to return to the bookstore.

There were no outsiders. The Great Elder’s tense expression relaxed. He gestured for Lin Suxin to sit down and casually asked, “Did your father also come into contact with Senior Ye and receive guidance?”

Lin Suxin hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

If it was before, she would not dare to reveal it. But now that everyone knew, it was fine to disclose it.

“Both you and your father are really lucky.” The Great Elder smiled helplessly. “Since you were able to receive guidance, then so be it. Don’t reveal what happened today. Later, I’ll pick two gifts from the storeroom and send them to the Ban family. It can be considered as thanking that girl. You can pick the gifts for Senior Ye.”

“You and your father are the only ones who have interacted with him from the Lin family. I will not give you any advice.”

“You can take whatever is available in the Lin family’s storeroom.”

The Great Elder gave a few more instructions and left the room, leaving this place to Lin Suxin and Lin Pingzhi.

As the clan leader was unconscious, the Great Elder had to take charge of the clan’s affairs, such as hunting down that Abyss lizard..
