Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents

Chapter 1069 648: Eight Great Families, Yao Qi's Ambition

Qin Ziheng moved incredibly fast, and even though Lu Lin spotted him instantly, he couldn't catch up.

Of course, Lu Lin was also taken aback.

Just now, he struck with his knife, definitely slashing Qin Ziheng with a sure hand.

Why didn't Qin Ziheng die, and how did he suddenly appear beside Qin Xue, leaving on a Flying Boat?

It was just a moment of hesitation, and thus Lu Lin let Qin Ziheng escape.

The speed of that Flying Boat was unbelievably fast, clearly meant for escaping.

"Get up, are you planning to lie on the ground all day, isn't it cold?"

Lu Lin said to Qi Wudi, who chuckled, rolled over, and stood up beside Lu Lin.

"Alright, let's go."

Seeing Qi Wudi dazed, Lu Lin said, Qi Wudi nodded, following Lu Lin out of the Qin Mansion.

When they arrived at the main entrance of the Qin Mansion, they saw a group of extravagantly dressed, high-ranking figures outside.

Among them, there were quite a few Leader Level masters.

Cautiously, Lu Lin took a step back, grasping the broken knife firmly in his hand.

"Who are you guys?"

"This young master."

A chubby old man stepped forward with a smile. His ability was only Gang Member Level 9, not enough for Lu Lin to be too vigilant or suspicious.

"Young Master, my surname is Chen, Chen Baixiang, clan leader of the Chen Family in Gu Feng Town. We are thankful for you eliminating a major threat for our town. Upon hearing of this, our hearts were filled with joy, and we wish to invite the Young Master to the Luo Shadow Tower for a drink. Please, do not decline."

"Chen Baixiang?"

Lu Lin turned his head to Qi Wudi beside him. Qi Wudi hesitated for a moment before transmitting to Lu Lin: "He's from one of the Eight Great Families in the city."

His gaze swept over those standing quietly behind, speculating that they were representatives and masters from other prominent families as well.

"No need, Qi Wudi and I fought the Qin Mansion not because of you."

"I have other matters; please feel free to go about your business."

Saying this, Lu Lin led the way past Chen Baixiang. Chen Baixiang moved his lips, wanting to say something, but upon looking at Lu Lin, he said nothing.

He respectfully bowed his hands, watching Lu Lin and Qi Wudi leave.

The others from the prominent families dared not obstruct, making way for Lu Lin to depart.

After walking a good distance, Lu Lin suddenly stopped.

Chen Baixiang's face showed joy, wondering if Lu Lin had changed his mind.

Then he heard Lu Lin say, "Everyone, the wormhole outside Gu Feng Town from hundreds of years ago has reappeared. It's said that entering the wormhole can enhance the talent and aptitude of accompanying treasures. Whether it's true or not, is for you to consider yourselves."

"Farewell."

After saying this, Lu Lin left without looking back.

The Eight Great Families and nearby onlookers were all stunned by Lu Lin's words.

The wormhole that appeared hundreds of years ago, they certainly knew what it was.

But later that place was occupied by Qin Ziheng, and the information about its interior was entirely sealed by the Qin Mansion, with none of them knowing the details.

Later, some saw the wormhole disappear, so they paid no further attention.

Unexpectedly, now Lu Lin said the wormhole had appeared again.

But that wasn't the most important part.

The wormhole could actually enhance the talent and aptitude of accompanying treasures.

Such words are not casually spoken.

It's known in the Cang He World that everyone is born with an accompanying treasure, which represents a person's talent and future.

Even though everyone in the Cang He World are Gang Member Level cultivators, life itself is about striving upwards; being stuck at Gang Member Level with no hope is something everyone has endured for long enough.

Who doesn't want to improve their talent, level, and become a stronger person?

Gang Member Level aspires to become Leader Level.

Leader Level seeks to reach Sub-altar Master Level.

Human desires are endless.

Especially now that the Qin Mansion was pushed away by Lu Lin and Qi Wudi and no longer exists. Who will take its place is yet undecided.

The Qin Mansion existed in Gu Feng Town for thousands of years, asking which family does not want to replace it.

No one cared whether Lu Lin's words were true.

Even if false, the family must be the first to verify.

But if true, it would be a perfect opportunity to rule Gu Feng Town.

The numerous family representatives present each had their own plans, exchanging glances with each other, chuckling.

"Brother Song, Qin Mansion's downfall is indeed a major event; why not find a place to chat and drink to celebrate."

"Sorry, Brother Liang, I have an appointment with someone, maybe another time."

"Elder Qi, the marriage date between my daughter and your son is approaching, should we find a time to finalize the details."

"No problem, Elder Zhao, but today's inconvenient. I have arranged to view a painting with a friend; another time, certainly."

Many family members were probing each other's opinions, and those from small families couldn't sit still, making excuses to leave quickly.

Of course, many more simply vanished without a word.

News of talent enhancement must be reported to the family immediately.

Decisions thereafter rely entirely on the family.

A short while ago, a large crowd is now reduced to a dozen or so masters from the Eight Great Families.

Song, Qi, Liang, Chen, Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Wang.

These are, after the Qin Family, the Eight Great Families at the pinnacle of Gu Feng Town.
