Capítulo 2238: Chapter 2215: Sinister Schemes!

The heavens and earth roared, and an aura of a Heaven and Earth Supreme immediately spread in all directions.

An old man with a gloomy face, exuding a natural authority without anger, slowly descended from the Cloud Sky, appearing before the crowd.

All the members of the Lan Clan around bowed their fists in respect and respectfully shouted, “Greetings, Clan Elder!”

Lan Yuxin saw the arrival of the old man, and a trace of solemnity appeared on her face, then she bowed and said, “Greetings, Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing.”

This old man was the father of Lan Xinghe, a strong one in the Wending Realm within the Lan Clan, also one of the clan elders, Lan Zhaoqing.

Lan Xinghe saw the arrival of Lan Zhaoqing and a trace of wild joy appeared on his face, he hurriedly bowed and said, “Father, father, you must stand up for me!”

As for the young girl beside Lan Xinghe, at this moment she was already trembling with fear under Lan Zhaoqing’s aura, at a loss, her cultivation was only at the seventh level of the Life-and-Death Realm, with her cultivation and status, how could she possibly see a strong one in the Wending Realm!

Lan Zhaoqing slightly nodded and said, “Rest assured, Xinghe, I have been traversing Dongzhou for a hundred years, and no one dares to bully my son, Lan Zhaoqing!!”

As he spoke, Lan Zhaoqing looked coldly at Lin Bai, then said to Lan Yuxin.

“Lan Yuxin, could it be that you want to protect this boy?” Lan Zhaoqing said coldly.

Lan Yuxin hurriedly said, “Clan Elder, I never intended to protect Lin Bai, but there are many doubts in this matter, and more investigation is needed. If it is indeed as Lan Xinghe says, that Lin Bai trespassed into the core area of the Lan Clan, I will be the first to not let him go!”

“Many doubts?” Lan Zhaoqing sneered, “What doubts? My son Lan Xinghe personally saw Lin Bai walk out of the room, both human and physical evidence are present, what doubts are there?”

Lan Yuxin squinted her eyes slightly and chuckled, “Then I wonder how the clan elder wants me to deal with Lin Bai?”

Lan Zhaoqing pondered for a moment, then said, “Considering he is your fiancé, he can be spared the death penalty, but his cultivation must be abolished as a warning to others, otherwise, if the disciples of Dongzhou Academy imitate, what of the dignity of our Lan Clan?”

Lan Yuxin sneered, “According to the clan elder’s meaning, after abolishing Lin Bai’s cultivation, should he also hand over the Recommendation Token?”

Lan Zhaoqing laughed, “Naturally, without cultivation, what purpose does it serve to participate in the Quasi Holy Son Selection? He naturally has to hand over the Recommendation Token so that the Lan Clan can select a suitable candidate to enter the Tianfu Secret Realm.”

Lan Yuxin sneered, “Then is this suitable candidate, choosing Lan Xinghe, more appropriate?”

Upon hearing this, Lan Zhaoqing’s face slightly darkened and said, “My son is naturally a worthy candidate, but if there are other candidates in the family, I can also acknowledge them!”

“Heh.” Lan Yuxin laughed coldly upon hearing this, “Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing, the Lan Clan recommended Lin Bai as per my father’s wishes, if you are dissatisfied, you can go and seek explanation from my father!”

“No need to use such underhanded tactics here!”

“Furthermore, Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing, you are a strong one in the Wending Realm, a clan elder of the Lan Clan, with eminent status, using such means, even if you are not afraid of being embarrassed, our Lan Clan is!”

Lan Yuxin said sharply.

“What do you mean! Lan Yuxin, are you saying that I am falsely accusing this boy?” Lan Zhaoqing said angrily.

Lan Yuxin said coldly, “I do not know whether Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing has falsely accused Lin Bai, but I trust in Lin Bai’s character, he would never commit such dirty and disgraceful acts!”

“Moreover, as Lin Bai himself said, a woman of this appearance cannot attract his interest!”

“Does Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing feel that my appearance, as Lan Yuxin, cannot even compare to such a woman?”

Lan Yuxin lifted her beautiful eyes, her face completely cold.

“Lan Yuxin…” Lan Zhaoqing gritted his teeth and said, “Even if Lin Bai is your fiancé, he is still an outsider. You and I are of the same clan, we both possess the Bloodline Legacy Martial Soul, connected by bone and blood…”

“And yet, at this moment, you are helping the outsider…”

Lan Zhaoqing said, full of anger.

Lan Yuxin looked at Lan Zhaoqing and said, “Lin Bai is not an outsider, one day you will understand!”

“Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing, if you are determined to persist today, I will stand against you until the end!”

“Today, with me here, none of you shall harm Lin Bai!”

Lan Yuxin said firmly.

Lan Zhaoqing’s eyes were cold as he looked at Lan Yuxin, momentarily speechless.

He originally thought that by coming personally, with the status of a Lan Clan elder, with the strength of a strong one in the Wending Realm, Lan Yuxin would have to give him some face, but he did not expect Lan Yuxin’s attitude to be so resolute.

At this moment, Lan Zhaoqing was in a dilemma.

Lan Yuxin said, “Clan Elder Lan Zhaoqing, I will thoroughly investigate this matter, and once the truth is revealed, if it is made public, I do not know where the elder’s dignity will reside…”

Lan Zhaoqing’s eyes narrowed slightly after hearing this.

At this moment, Lin Bai also understood, it seemed this Lan Clan elder wanted the Recommendation Token on him for Lan Xinghe, which is why this setup unfolded!

“Senior Sister Lan Yuxin, so all of this is for the Recommendation Token on me.”

“This senior must want to give this Recommendation Token to Lan Xinghe, right?”

“Since that is the case, why bother with all this, if you want the token, come and take it.”

Lin Bai took out the Recommendation Token from the Storage Bag and held it in his hand.

Lan Zhaoqing’s eyes glimmered as he looked at Lin Bai, sneeringly saying, “Boy, you have some sense! Give the token to me.”

Lan Yuxin immediately shouted, “Lin Bai, what are you trying to do?”

“Hold on, senior.” Lin Bai chuckled.

Lan Zhaoqing asked, “What are you trying to do?”

Lin Bai chuckled, “Senior put in so much effort, all to deem Lan Xinghe more suitable than me to enter the Tianfu Secret Realm!”

“If Lan Xinghe truly has the ability to defeat me, I, Lin Bai, am willing to hand over the token!”

“If he lacks this ability, then I ask the senior not to keep pestering mindlessly.”

Lin Bai said calmly.

Lan Yuxin remained silent, watching Lin Bai.

Lan Zhaoqing said with a gloomy face, “You want to fight my son?”

Lin Bai chuckled, “Not just your son, but also the woman by his side, let them come together. If the two of them join forces and can defeat me, I’ll hand over this Recommendation Token willingly!”

Lan Xinghe immediately laughed upon hearing this, “Lin Bai, you really have some nerve, wanting to fight me, but haven’t even considered your cultivation. A mere eighth level of the Life-and-Death Realm, defeating you is no difficulty!”

“Earlier, I refrained out of respect for Lan Yuxin Sister, now you dare provoke me, truly seeking death!”

“Father, agree to this!”

“I want to crush every bone in his body personally!”

Lan Xinghe’s mouth curled into a cruel smile.
