Chapter 74: The Lin Clan is dispatched [Additional chapters for follow-up reading] Just when the Ye family was gearing up for battle, a secret letter came from the Qinghe Immortal Sect and was delivered to the Ye Family Island. After Ye Linyuan finished reading the letter, he summoned everyone in the Ye family and said directly: "Master Yu has made a breakthrough, and he will be promoted to the elder of Qinghe Immortal Sect next month." When everyone heard this, they immediately showed a hint of surprise. For Qinghe Xianmen, a newly promoted elder is no small matter and is bound to attract the attention of most people in Qinghe Xianmen. During this period of time, the outside world's attention was attracted by the Qinghe Immortal Sect. This was the best time for them to take action. Thinking of this, Ye Qinyang couldn't help but ask: "When will we start?" "Maybe in half a month." Ye Linyuan spoke, his eyes burning as he said, "New Year's Day will be here in half a month, and this is when they are most relaxed. When the time comes, we will take advantage of the night to strike, and we will surely catch them off guard." Ye Qinchu also nodded, and said fiercely: "During the New Year, the Lin family will return to Red Star Island. If we take action then, we can prevent any fish from slipping through the net."
Half a month passed quickly, and before we knew it, it was New Year's Eve. That evening, Ye Linyuan stood in front of the square of Yejia Village, looking at a group of Yejia Taoist soldiers in front of him, with a burning look in his eyes. After six or seven years of training, there are now more than a hundred pseudo-Taoist soldiers on Yejia Island, among whom thirty have reached the Mahayana realm. These people all have a strength of three thousand kilograms. With weapons and armor, their strength is roughly comparable to that of a third-level Qi training cultivator. Although the rest have not yet reached full success, they basically all have a strength of more than two thousand kilograms. Such combat power is comparable to that of a second-level Qi training cultivator, and can be considered an extremely powerful force. In addition to the Taoist soldiers of the Ye family, Yejia Island also has six villages with other surnames, with a total of 180 pseudo-Taoist soldiers. However, the skills of these pseudo-Taoist soldiers can only be cultivated to a level comparable to the first level of Qi training, and they are only equipped with weapons and armor of the Hundred Refining Level. Their overall strength is far inferior to that of the Ye family's Taoist soldiers. A Mahayana pseudo-Taoist soldier of the Ye family, as long as he wears thousand-refined armor and weapons, can defeat dozens of pseudo-Taoist soldiers from other families by himself. Because with armor and weapons of the hundred-refined level, and the Taoist soldiers' skills of the small success level, they were simply unable to break the thousand-refined armor of the Ye family's Taoist soldiers. At this moment, Ye Linyuan looked at the 280 pseudo-Taoist soldiers in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little uncertain in his heart. He believed that with the strength of this Taoist army alone, he would be able to sweep away all the strong men in the Lin family who were below the late stage of Qi training. In addition to the pseudo-Taoist soldiers, the Ye family now has two late-stage Qi training fighters, Old Man Ye and Ye Linyuan, and seven middle-stage Qi training fighters, namely Ye Qinyang, Ye Qinchu, Ye Qinxin, Ye Linze, Ye Huaixue, Zhou Yuwan, and Zhou Mingfu. With such strength, they already have a huge advantage over the Lin family. As long as they launch a surprise attack, they will surely achieve a great victory. Understanding this, Ye Linyuan immediately glanced at everyone and then said, "Members of the Ye family, the Lin family bullied our Ye family in the past, and now the time for revenge has come." "Today we will definitely wipe out the Lin family and use the blood and bones of the Lin family to avenge the shame of the past." "Revenge, revenge!" The Taoist soldiers below were all excited, and they all raised their spears and shouted. Ye Linyuan nodded, and said seriously: "But before this battle, I need to emphasize it again." "The battle between cultivators should only be between cultivators, and mortals should not be harmed at all. If you dare to kill mortals without reason, then even if they are my relatives and brothers, don't blame me, Ye Linyuan, for being ruthless!" Everyone's expressions suddenly became solemn. They were all trained by Ye Linyuan himself, so they naturally understood that the person in front of them was a man of his word. They immediately responded with great solemnity.
Ye Linyuan finished his speech and finally waited until dark before setting off. This time, Ye Linyuan took away two hundred and eighty pseudo-Taoist soldiers and all the cultivators in the family who were in the middle stage of Qi training and above. Only a few weaker pseudo-Taoist soldiers were left, as well as Ye Linchu and Ye Linhai, two younger people in the early stage of Qi training. In order to prevent the Lin family from noticing, this time they set out in ten small boats, silently traveling across the ocean under the cover of night. They did not light any lights, but traveled by moonlight, and did not arrive outside Chixing Island until late at night, without the Lin family noticing anything unusual. This time, in order to avoid being discovered by the Lin family, they did not land at the port, but instead docked near the steep cliffs behind the island. They used the waves to dock the ship next to the cliff, and then several Qi-refining monks from the Ye family climbed up the hundred-foot cliff and nailed the rope to the cliff. The Ye family's pseudo-Taoist soldiers all climbed to the top of the mountain using ropes. This cliff is over a hundred feet high. Even with the great strength of the pseudo-Taoist soldiers, it would take some effort to climb up. If the Lin family arranged cultivators to guard here at night, they would definitely be able to discover anything unusual. In fact, the Lin family would usually arrange one or two cultivators, plus a group of mortals to keep watch here, but now it is New Year's Eve, and the Lin family cultivators who were keeping watch here have already gone back to celebrate the New Year. Even most of the mortals guarding this place have left, leaving only one or two mortals guarding this place. Today, the Lin family is very powerful and claims to be the only overlord of the seven islands of Star Lake. They never expected that they would be attacked on New Year's Eve. Those one or two mortals were dealt with by Ye Qinyang in just one encounter. The Taoist soldiers of the Ye family took this opportunity to climb to the top of the mountain quietly. After reaching the top of the mountain, Ye Qinyang suddenly became a little excited. He couldn't help but look at Ye Linyuan and asked, "When will we start?" Ye Linyuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Wait a little longer, wait until after the fourth update before taking action." Old Man Ye nodded when he heard this. People usually go to bed later on New Year's Eve, and the fourth watch is when people sleep the deepest, so it is the best time to take action. So everyone waited on the top of the mountain for more than an hour, and when it was close to three o'clock in the morning, Ye Linyuan decided to take action. He first turned to look at Ye Qinchu, and said with a serious expression: "Third Uncle, you take the 180 Taoist soldiers from other families to block the port and control all ships that can leave the island. Make sure no one from the Lin family escapes." Ye Qinchu nodded and said seriously, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone escape." Having said this, Ye Qinchu immediately led the Taoist soldiers to the dock. Seeing this, Ye Linyuan immediately said to the remaining people: "Let's go and kill directly to the residence of the Lin family cultivators." As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Linyuan took the lead and led all the cultivators and Ye family soldiers to charge down the mountain. This time, Old Man Ye and Ye Linyuan walked in front and killed their way silently to the Lin family's residence. (End of this chapter)
