Chapter 379: Chapter 380: The Emperor has taken a liking to the Yun family’s land (6th update)

Lin Qian’s face changed instantly upon hearing this; he had not expected such things to have occurred. Although filled with anger, he was not worried about the matters to come. Since he was born into this world, it meant the other party had not succeeded.

“My master was in secluded cultivation and thus unaware of this matter. As for the young lady, how could she possibly agree? Plus, she and your father were secretly betrothed for life. Upon receiving early news, the two secretly left and traveled to the most remote Coastal State in the Southern Domain, residing in the small Bashan City.”

“The territory controlled by the Human Clan of the Soul Martial Continent is so vast, searching for your parents was like looking for a needle in a haystack, and so the matter was passed by. It was only later that your parents suddenly returned to the Central Domain and were captured back by the Yun family.”

“Your father, Lin Di, was imprisoned, and his essence blood was taken to reveal your location. Your mother was to be handed over to Jiang Wenxin as an apology.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Qian clenched his fists so tightly they made a cracking sound, clearly seething with rage.

His parents had risked everything to return, solely to find a way for him to awaken his Martial Soul, but unfortunately, upon their return, their whereabouts were exposed, and they were directly apprehended.

Looking at the furious Lin Qian, Yang Guixiang too empathized strongly, his body surging with crimson Spirit Power, “Fortunately, your grandfather emerged from his seclusion with significantly improved strength. Learning of the matter, he was furious. The master has endured all these years, but this time he would no longer tolerate it. He rescued your parents, led a group of people out of the Yun family, and broke ties with the Yun family’s ancestors.”

“Your grandfather’s intention was for us to take good care of you. Once you have cultivated to a certain degree, he wanted us to tell you everything and to return to the Central Domain with you.” At this point, Fang Shuiwen couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “I’m afraid the master could never have imagined just how extraordinary his own grandson would be.”

Lin Qian sat silently in a cross-legged position, then extended his hand, his forefinger releasing golden-red Thunder Soul Power, inscribing the character “Yun” on the ground.

Immediately after, Lin Qian wrote two more large characters above “Yun”…

Huaxia!

“Young master, what is this?” Zhou Yian and the other two also sat down, puzzled by the characters Lin Qian had written on the ground.

Lin Qian extended his hand toward the “Yun” on the ground, then suddenly looked up at the three elders in front of him with a smile, as if the person who had been full of anger just moments ago was not him.

“Does the trio believe that as a royal family of the Huaxia Empire, the Yun family could be a good choice?” As he spoke, Lin Qian slapped his hand down on the “Yun” character and grinned, “This Yun family of the Huaxia Empire is set.”

Lifting his hand, the “Yun” character he had written on the ground was already shattered.

“Of course, before that, let’s take some time to deal with the Emperor Qin’s Dynasty. Once everything in the Southern Domain is settled, we’ll go to the Central Domain and see just how powerful that old immortal of the Yun family really is.” As Lin Qian stood up, a fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes, “When I think about it, I really can’t wait.”

The three elders looked at Lin Qian before them and, for some reason, a thought suddenly arose in their hearts.

The elder of the Yun family is finished, and the Yun family, from which the master has withdrawn, is finished too!

Even though the Yun family remained a colossal entity after the master left, they had such faith in Lin Qian; they believed he truly had the power to overthrow the Yun family.

Perhaps it was because of his shocking twelve cycles of Nirvana, or his unprecedented dual Martial Souls, or maybe the mystique brought about by the Huaxia Empire.

Truthfully, the three elders were now even more eager to find out just how much strength Lin Qian’s Huaxia Empire possessed and exactly what had allowed it to overthrow the Qin Dynasty without the loss of a single soldier, causing massive damage to the assembled enemy forces.

“Elders, do you really have to keep calling me young master? Doesn’t it feel very alienating?” Lin Qian asked with some discomfort as he looked towards the three elders.

Upon hearing Lin Qian’s words, the three elders exchanged a smile and explained to him, “Given our respective statuses here, it is only proper. We three address you as young master, and you respectfully call us ‘the elders’. What’s wrong with that?”

“There have to be some rules that should be maintained.”

Lin Qian, upon hearing this, stood up solemnly and gave a bow to the three elders, because in actuality, their words had made it clear that they would be leaving the Double Pole Palace, the Carefree Sect, and Blood Spirit Valley, continuing to fulfill their duties as followers of his grandfather, protecting him at his side.

“By the way, one of your subordinates mentioned earlier that the richness of Spiritual Energy influences one’s talent and aptitude. Is there really such a thing?” Suddenly, Fang Shuiwen seemed to remember something and eagerly asked Lin Qian.

Zhou Yian and Yang Guixiang were equally curious about this issue, both turning their gazes to Lin Qian, hoping he could clarify their doubts.

“Indeed, the Heavenly Art Department of the Huaxia Empire has already researched this. When the concentration of nature’s spiritual energy is high enough, children’s bodies will instinctively absorb it during growth, tempering their flesh, tendons, bones, and Dantian meridians,” he confirmed.

“Moreover, in areas with a high concentration of Spiritual Energy, starting children on martial training to exercise their bodies consciously polishes them, providing a strong foundation for future cultivation.”

“However, the amount of Spiritual Energy concentration appropriate for children of each age also matters. For instance, four-year-olds require an environment with a slightly lower concentration compared to five-year-olds. Therefore, the Spirit Gathering Array set up by the parents can be adjusted by them.”

“At first glance, setting up Spirit Gathering Arrays for ordinary commoners might seem wasteful, but in reality, unlike Soul Martial Artists, whose bodily strength and vital energy solidify as their Realm increases, making childbirth difficult, commoners can reproduce quickly.”

“With the foundation of a Spirit Gathering Array, generation after generation of commoners’ children will grow increasingly stronger, and there will be more and more offspring with talent. Wouldn’t the Empire then have a growing number of talented individuals to utilize?”

Lin Qian’s words plunged the three elders once again into astonishment. They had never even considered this, let alone researched it so thoroughly.

If what Lin Qian said was true, then according to his idea, with the continuous strengthening of such a vast number of commoners’ descendants, the number of Soul Martial Artists would likely see a dramatic increase.

“The Heavenly Art Department has also developed a set of exercises for children. As long as they practice daily, the next generation’s children will at least be able to reach the Shape Origin Realm,” Lin Qian said, his face revealing his anticipation. “I can’t wait to see the Huaxia Empire become even stronger.”

The three elders, having listened to Lin Qian’s words, were truly in awe. It was only at this moment that they realized how important these ordinary commoners, whom they had overlooked, actually were.

Just as Lin Qian was excited, the voice of Zhuge Ming suddenly surfaced in his mind, “Your Majesty, I have an extremely important matter to report, and it’s also a great piece of good news.”

“Oh? Let’s hear it.” Zhuge Ming’s anxious yet joyous tone made Lin Qian very curious.

“Your Majesty, the hearts of the people are very important, for they will elevate the Huaxia Empire!”
