Chapter 4228: Forced

Editor: Henyee Translations

This was naturally slander.

No matter how the members of the Lin Clan tried to explain, it was useless. When it involved the Imperial Scroll, anyone would rather believe it to be true than not.

Finally, the Venerate Tier elite from the Lin Clan Clan personally stepped out, demanding that Ling Han give an explanation in public.

Ling Han stepped out, and said with a smile, “Apologies, I was just joking with everyone. I did not gain anything from the corpse of the Holy Emperor.”

‘F*ck! Is this a joke?’

The Fire Cloud Imperial Clan was almost angered to death. ‘You’ve troubled the Lin Clan so badly, and you want to remove yourself from this matter by saying this was just a joke?’

But what could they do about it? Though Ling Han had screwed them over, he still acted in the position of a junior. He said that it was a joke, and the Lin Clan had not lost anything because of this. Could it be that they wanted to beat Ling Han to death because of a joke?

Don’t think that the Buddhist Race of the West Heavenly Realm was not the Buddhist Race. After all, Ling Han still had the title of Buddha Son. If they went too far, that would be looking down on the Buddhist Race.

No Imperial Clan would be willing to shoulder this responsibility.

Added with the fact that the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva had stepped out to apologize to the great Imperial Clans on Ling Han’s behalf, acting like an elder that was protecting his junior, so what could the Lin Clan do about it?

And just like that, the farce disappeared without a trace.

But just the night before Ling Han was about to leave with the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva, an uninvited guest paid Ling Han a visit.

This was called an uninvited guest because he had barged in without Ling Han’s permission.

Lin Xuan was the most outstanding member of the Fire Cloud Imperial Clan. His natural talent in cultivation was also the strongest in history, and he was a member of the Golden Generation.

“I’ll give you one last chance. Hand over the Imperial Scroll,” Lin Xuan said calmly. His expression was gentle, but coupled with the intertwining of dragons and phoenixes on his body and the strange phenomenon of Spiritual Springs appearing beneath his feet, it formed a great pressure.

Without waiting for Ling Han to speak, he continued, “I am destined to become Emperor, and becoming my enemy is an unwise move! I can easily kill you. Furthermore, at most, a few days later, I may not even remember your name after killing you.”

“Your natural talent in cultivation is not too bad, but in my eyes, you are like an ant. The gap is as wide as the sky!”

“Your only value is to hand over the Imperial Scroll, and when I become Emperor in the future, even if it is just this little bit of kindness, it would be enough to allow you to run rampant in the world, and no one would dare touch you!”

“Moreover, the Imperial Scroll is only worth studying for me. Even if I don’t have it, it can’t stop me from achieving Dao!”

“Thus, to become my enemy, or have me owe you a favor… If you can still be considered smart, you should know what choice you have to make.”

Lin Xuan stood proudly in front of Ling Han, like an emperor giving alms to Ling Han.

Ling Han was furious. This guy was too conceited.

“Hehe, so what if you’re the Golden Generation?” He revealed a disdainful smile, “You were only born about a hundred years earlier than me. If we had the same cultivation time, I would be able to beat you up with one hand. Do you believe me?”

Lin Xuan wasn’t angered, and he said, “Your self-deceiving words are completely meaningless, and it’s also impossible for you to anger me. I’ve already said that you’re only an ant on the ground, while I’m the True Dragon from the Nine Heavens. Do you think that the True Dragon will become angry just because an ant on the ground is baring its fangs and brandishing its claws at him?”

“Unworthy, you’re not worthy!”

He spoke matter-of-factly, as if he was merely stating a fact.

Indeed, he had the right to be proud. The Golden Generation was comparable to the Great Emperors of the past. Furthermore, he was a whole two major cultivation levels higher than Ling Han. This was an absolutely one-sided suppression, and a world of difference.

Ling Han remained silent, a faint smile on his face.

Everything was up to the future.

At present, he was indeed no match for Lin Xuan, but the gap between the two of them would only continue to shrink. One day, he would beat up this bastard.

Just wait and see.

“Imperial Scroll!” Lin Xuan shouted lightly. Weng, this exploded in Ling Han’s mind.

Ling Han couldn’t help but tremble, blood gushing from all his apertures.

Lin Xuan was too strong. He was Sect Master-level, and was already qualified to be called a great elite. This kind of elite only had to give out a light shout, and it would be enough to kill a True Self Tier.

Ling Han’s body was as straight as a spear. His strength was indeed inferior, but in terms of willpower, he was definitely not the slightest bit inferior.

“Humph, pointless resistance!” Lin Xuan sneered. Boom, there was no need for him to make a move at all. His divine sense was like a mountain, pressing down on Ling Han.

Even if Ling Han’s physique was astonishing, under the pressure of the Sect Master-level divine sense, every bone in his body was still trembling.

Lin Xuan hadn’t used his full power yet. Otherwise, he could kill Ling Han with a single thought.

“Kneel!” Lin Xuan said balefully. ‘Aren’t you arrogant? Then I’ll make you lose all face and leave behind a humiliation that will never be erased.’

“Imperial Son Xuan, you have gone too far!” The Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva’s voice rang out. He had come with Ling Han in the first place with the intention of protecting him, so how could he just sit by and watch?

Lin Xuan was slightly startled, but was completely unconcerned, “So it is Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva.”

“You can leave now,” the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva said calmly.

“What if I say no?” Lin Xuan said with a smile. He was actually unafraid of even Venerate Tier elites.

The Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva couldn’t help but feel angry. It’s true that you’re the Imperial Son, and the Golden Generation is indeed awesome, but I’m a Venerate Tier, after all, and a three-star one at that. There’s a gap of a major tier between us, so what right do you have to act arrogant in front of me?

“Don’t force me to make a move,” he said. Though his tone was still relatively calm, there was already a hint of anger in his tone.

Lin Xuan finally smiled, “I was just joking. How could I dare to disobey a Venerate Tier’s command?”

He waved his hand, turned and left.

Ling Han stared at his receding back, his fury surging.

Lin Xuandared to act so wantonly because he was from the Imperial Clan and that he himself was a Sect Master. Thus, he could trample all over Ling Han as he pleased. He didn’t even care about Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva.

Good! Good! Good!

Ling Han took a deep breath, turning his fury into motivation. When he became a Sect Master, that would be the day that Lin Xuan would die.

Now, he had to swallow this anger.

After a day, the Dragon Elephant Bodhisattva brought Ling Han back to the Stainless Planet.

Good news came. The little azure dragon and the large black dog came out of seclusion in a few days. They had already grasped the Imperial Scroll, and were beginning to recultivate their cultivation levels with the Imperial Scroll This obviously wouldn’t take too long.

Ling Han was overjoyed, and decided to return to Nine Suns Holy Land.

He pretended to be cultivating in seclusion, then built a Transfer Formation for himself. He left the Stainless Planet, then changed his appearance, and headed all the way to the Nine Suns Planet.

Two months later, he had already returned to the Nine Suns Holy Land.

He first contacted the empress, and asked her to bring him into the Holy Land. Then, he found the Nine Mountains Venerate. After roughly explaining his experiences, he recited the Imperial Scroll.

This was very difficult, because the Imperial Scroll was a deduction of the Dao of heaven and earth, and could not be formulated into words or pictures. Ling Han could only outline it in the form of seals, and play out its changes.

Thankfully, the old man was a Venerate Tier elite, after all. To him, this was not a heavenly book, that could not be read at all.

However, it still took the Nine Mountains Venerate three months to finally memorize the Imperial Scroll. As for when he would be able to comprehend it, he didn’t know.

The task of teaching the empress and Hu Niu would be delegated to Nine Mountains Venerate. Ling Han would return to Stainless Planet. He was the Buddha Son, so he couldn’t disappear for too long.
