Overriding the Heaven

Before this, he had always felt that Chu Yan was at most a somewhat mature youth. After four months of being together with him, the other party seemed to be warm and friendly.    

But what happened today, and what Chu Yan had just said, made Zhao Ji understand that he had underestimated this youth!    

He suddenly realised that he could not understand Chu Yan, and did not know if it was a good thing or a bad thing that he brought Chu Yan into the Lin Family.    

Feng Ru regained his senses from his shock and stuttered: "But you took the blame for the Lin Family. Did you know that Ye Chen is one of the talents in the younger generation of the Ye Family that was highly sought after? "If you had stayed in the Lin Family Mansion or the Lin Jia Stronghold, then you would have been fine. But if the other party found a chance, then you would have had to face revenge in a crazed manner."    

"In this world, there is no such thing as not paying the price to gain benefits. Even if it's just a bunch of useless things, there are still risks." Chu Yan said indifferently, "In that situation, I had already done everything I could do with my current abilities, no matter how good I am, it would be very difficult.    

After he finished speaking, Chu Yan thought to himself, "I'm afraid the Ye Family's revenge is also the reason why Lin Chongtian allowed me to choose between martial skills and weapons."    

After pondering for a while, Zhao Ji suddenly looked straight at Chu Yan, his tone was filled with unprecedented seriousness: "Chu Yan, tell me, who exactly are you!"    

"Big Brother Zhao!" Feng Ru was shocked, he could feel the change in Zhao Ji's tone.    

"Big Brother Zhao, I know what you're worried about." Chu Yan looked at his opponent, and the expression on his face slowly became serious.    

Although his cultivation was not as good as Zhao Ji's, the imposing aura he was forcing out, was still such that Zhao Ji was unable to oppress him in the slightest.    

"At that time, I was heavily injured and in a coma. The reason you saved me was not purely because of your kindness, but because I looked like the Chu Yan you all spoke of. On this point, you do not have the qualifications to criticize me, because I did not take the initiative to deceive you." Chu Yan said, "However, you two saved my life, this is an indisputable fact, so I can swear that I have no intention of harming the Lin Family. Furthermore, I can swear that, regardless of whether or not I, Chu Yan, can enter the Door of Immortality as you have said, I will definitely not do anything that would harm the Lin Family or the two of you. "    

Hearing Chu Yan's attitude, Zhao Ji muttered to himself for a while, then nodded: "Alright, I believe you. I hope that you will always keep your promise."    

"I will." Chu Yan nodded.    

The two of them did not have anymore things to talk about, so after Zhao Ji pointed out a few things for Chu Yan to take care of, he and Feng Ru took his leave.    

Watching the two leave, Chu Yan shook his head and thought: "I'm afraid you guys don't know, but in order to deal with the Ye Family's marriage proposal, the price paid by your Lin Family was not small. At least a secret of the Great Circle of the Second Level of Pulse Condensation Stage was leaked out just like that. From this point of view, the relationship between the Ye Clan and your Lin Clan is definitely not the friendly harmony that you two feel.    

And the reason I can get your leader to accept me is not only because I gave him a reason to reject the Ye family, but also because of the power and potential I showed, making him willing to support me.    

If I was the one who lost, he could've given up this useless husband of his and also reject the Ye family's marriage because the Ye family was too harsh.    

No matter what you say, he will never lose anything. Hmph, what an old fox. "    

After that, Chu Yan rested in the small courtyard, and servants specially brought food over.    

Although he had entered the Lin Family, Chu Yan still had two problems he had to resolve next. The first was regarding the immortal gate, so it was impossible to ask about it today, so he could only think of a way to clear up the matter regarding the Profound Moon Sect in the next period of time. The second problem was that he was no longer in the wilderness, and he did not have any experts like Zhao Ji and Feng Ru to help him hunt food.    

Although the Lin Family's food looked exquisite and the taste wasn't bad, it was still much lower than Chu Yan's requirement.    

"It seems like I'll have to think of a way to deal with all of this in the coming time." Chu Yan thought.    

As for his fiancee, Lin Miaoran, in name, even if she was unable to meet her, Chu Yan was not in a rush.    

When night fell, Chu Yan closed the main gate of his courtyard, and then closed the doors and windows of his residence. Then, he entered the time-space cage of the second level of Return to the Ruins Tower, and began to train.    

In the previous four months, because Zhao Ji and Feng Ru were not even a step apart, he did not have any way of cultivating, but because of this, he had developed an unexpectedly good foundation for his own body.    

Now that he was cultivating inside the time-space cage, Chu Yan could clearly feel that the blood energy that he had previously devoured was now all heading towards his muscles, veins, blood, and bone marrow, causing his body to become even more resilient and condensed.    

Although he had not tested it yet, Chu Yan could tell from how easy it was for him to hit the man with the rocks that he could be considered a humanoid dire beast from a certain point of view, and a beast with a lot of strength.    

After a night of cultivation, Chu Yan faintly felt that he was about to break through.    

This made him extremely excited.    

The benefits of cultivating after a period of accumulation were obvious.    

If he levelled up once again, and reached Stage Four of the Genuine Force, Chu Yan would have returned to the realm before he was sent to the Abyss Demon Prison, and his strength would be even stronger than it was when he was at the same realm as Chu Yan!    

Chu Yan still wanted to stay in the time and space cage to cultivate, but the sky was already bright. He still had to go to the Lin Jia Stronghold outside the town to choose martial skills and weapons, so he could only temporarily leave the echo loop.    

Chu Yan took a bath and then changed into a set of clean clothes that the Lin Family had prepared for him a long time ago. Not long after he returned to the house, a servant came over and brought Chu Yan his breakfast, and informed him that he had been brought to the Lin Jia Stronghold outside the town not long after eating breakfast.    

After everything was prepared, the one in charge of bringing Chu Yan to the Lin Jia Stronghold was Feng Ru, who had separated from his the previous day.    

When he was leaving Qingyang Town with Chu Yan and heading towards the Lin Jia Stronghold, Feng Ru told him that he and Zhao Ji had been summoned by the Patriarch last night.    

After the clan head asked them about the process of the mission, he assigned them another mission. The two of them would probably have to leave the Lin Clan for a period of time, at least three to five months, and at most half a year.    

"I already knew that." Chu Yan nodded.    

If he were the Patriarch, he would also push Zhao Ji and Feng Ru away for a period of time.    

Feng Ru said: "After knowing that I was the one who brought you to the Lin Jia Stronghold today, Big Brother Zhao specifically reminded me to answer your questions as much as possible. What else do you have to ask? When we get to Lin Jia Stronghold, if I still want to answer your question, it might not be as convenient as it is now. "
