C780 To Die or to Live(14)
Jiang Duzun of Monarch Castle was ambitious. He had long wanted to unify all 36 castles in the southwest region. However, Great Emperor Tian Feng had ordered that all 100 of the castles were affiliated to the Monarch Castle. Without a proper reason, they were not allowed to attack at will. Those who disobeyed the order would be punished by the Heavenly Wind Imperial City.
Although the Monarch Castle was the first castle in the southwest, it was just a slightly stronger ant compared to the enormous Heavenly Wind Imperial City. A random Nine Stars Emperor could wipe out the Monarch Castle from this world.
Without a reasonable excuse, Jiang Duzun could only bitterly suppress his wild ambitions. However, at least the heavens would not let someone down. The excuse had finally come. The grudge of killing his son was irreconcilable. Even if it was just a nephew. . . It was the Jiang family's good fortune. A son wasn't a son, but a son who avenged his own family. This was the biggest reason, and even the Heavenly Wind Imperial City couldn't find a reason to do so.
At this moment, the entire Monarch Castle was sharpening their blades. Once the three-day deadline was over, they would lead the experts in the castle to annihilate the Lin Family Castle and take over everything that belonged to the Lin Family Castle!
On the other hand, the Lin Family Castle was filled with gloomy clouds. The name of the Monarch Castle was like a huge mountain, pressing down on them until they couldn't breathe.
Under all kinds of helplessness, Lin Tiannan had already made up his mind to force Yang Fann to come out of his seclusion. Whether Lin Family Castle could escape this tribulation or not, all of his hopes were placed on Yang Fann.
A year and a half ago, Yang Fann's combat strength had already far surpassed his, a six star Peak-level Emperor. After more than a year of secluded cultivation, his strength must have improved by leaps and bounds. Unlike them, who had almost exhausted all of their potential, even if they cultivated bitterly for hundreds or thousands of years, their cultivation base wouldn't have much of a breakthrough.
For a Peerless Evildoer like Yang Fann, before he was a hundred years old, his potential had erupted. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that his cultivation base and strength had improved by leaps and bounds.
It was very likely that he already had the strength to fight Eight Stars Emperor. With his help, it wasn't like the Lin Family Castle didn't have the strength to fight the Monarch Castle.
However, right at this moment. . . . . .
A cold voice came from outside the conference room, "Brother Lin, what are your considerations? My son truly admires your daughter. As long as you agree to the marriage between your son and your daughter, my Zhangjiabao is willing to fight against the Monarch Castle with your Lin Family Castle. . . "
The next moment. . .
Two figures, one big and one small, walked in from outside the parliament hall.
The leader was a middle-aged man in embroidered clothes. He looked like he was in his forties. He had a refined appearance, and there was a faint scholarly air between his brows. Although he was a martial artist, he looked more like a scholar who was full of poetry. However, his eyes flickered like a poisonous snake from time to time, causing one to feel an instinctive fear.
Behind him was a person wearing white clothes. Gongzi, who was in his early twenties, had a graceful appearance. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and he had handsome facial features. His skin was fair and clean, except for his thin lips. He gave off a harsh feeling, and almost no flaws could be found. However, his cultivation was a little unsatisfactory. . . More than twenty people had just reached the Seven Star King Realm. Furthermore, the aura was fluctuating, and it was obviously due to the accumulation of medicinal herbs.
Zhang Gusheng - the current Lord of the Zhangjiabao, followed by his third son - Zhang Yulin.
The Zhangjiabao was the same as the Lin Family Castle. They were both one of the 36 castles in the southwest, but their strength was much stronger than the Lin Family Castle. They could be said to be in the top three of the 36 castles in the southwest.
Apart from the Lord of the Zhangjiabao, Zhang Gusheng, the Great Elder Zhang Guili was also Seven Stars Emperor.
This was also the reason why he dared to make the Monarch Castle his enemy.
Although the Zhangjiabao was not as powerful as the Monarch Castle, it was only slightly weaker. If the Lin Family Castle was added into the mix, the strength of both sides could be said to be almost the same. Even if the Monarch Castle could defeat them, they would still have to kill a thousand of their enemies, causing them to lose eight hundred of their own. As long as Jiang Duzun wasn't kicked in the head by a donkey, it was impossible for them to completely fall out with the two families.
At that time, the Zhangjiabao would be able to take advantage of the situation. They would be able to annex the Lin Family Castle without any weapons.
"Castle Lord Zhang, you don't have to worry about this!!!" Lin Tiannan sneered. He directly refused. That Monarch Castle had wild ambitions. If Zhang Gusheng wanted to annex the Lin Family Castle in one fell swoop, how good could that old fox be? He was simply taking advantage of the situation. Putting aside the fact that Zhang Yulin was a well-known useless young master of the Zhangjiabao. It wasn't a good match at all. If the two families really became in-laws. . . It wouldn't be long before the surname of the Lin Family Castle would be Zhang.
"Brother Lin, my son is truly in love with your daughter. Why don't you think about it?" In Zhang Gusheng's eyes, His expression didn't change at all.
"There's no need to think about it. My Ru Er won't marry!" If it wasn't for Yang Fann, Lin Tiannan might have even thought that Zhang Gusheng was a snake in a snake's den. In the end, he would have had no choice but to make his precious daughter feel wronged. He might even marry Zhang Yulin. Lin Tiannan might love Lin Wanru, but. . . But compared to the ancestral foundation, it's still second. If the Lin Family Castle were to be destroyed in his hands. . . How could he still have the face to meet the ancestors of the Lin Family?
But now, Lin Tiannan couldn't be bothered to waste his time with this Zhang Gusheng. That son of a b * tch of yours is worthy of taking my Ru Er. Even if my Ru'er wanted to marry him, she would have to marry Yang Fann, Nephew, a peerless figure with a sky-high price.
"Lin Tiannan, without the help of my Zhangjiabao, your Lin Family Castle will be removed from this world!"
The Cold Shine in Zhang Gusheng's eyes flashed, and his voice instantly turned cold. He had completely removed his disguise.
"You want to remove my Lin Family Castle from this world? The Monarch Castle isn't qualified to do so!" Lin Tiannan smiled disdainfully. Do you really think our Lin Family Castle is still the Lin Family Castle from before?
" What a big tone. Is Lin Tiannan bluffing, or does he really have something to rely on? " Zhang Gusheng was shocked when he heard this. The former was fine, but the latter was fine. Things would not be good if it was the latter.
However, judging from Lin Tiannan's solemn expression, it was obvious that the latter was the most likely.
"Could it be that Lin Family Castle has already sided with Sun Yaowu?!"
If there were 36 castles in the southeast, apart from the Zhangjiabao, there were also other powers that could fight against the Monarch Castle, which was the Sun Family. Sun Yaowu was the current Lord of the Sun Family, just like the Zhangjiabao. There were also two great Seven Stars Emperor guarding the Sun Family.
However, thinking about it carefully, it was a little inappropriate. In the Lin Family Castle, he didn't sense any unfamiliar aura from the expert. Furthermore, the Sun Family was different from the Zhangjiabao. It wouldn't take more than a few hours for them to gather experts to the Lin Family Castle. It would take a few days even for someone like him to rush to the Zhangjiabao from the Sun Family.
"But besides the Sun Family, who else could it be? Could it be that Lin Tiannan has some kind of connection with the big families of Emperor City?"
If there really was such a relationship, let alone a mere Monarch Castle. . . Even the Ma Family Fort, the number one fort in the Hundred Cities, wouldn't dare to have any designs on the Lin Family Castle.
To the big families of Emperor City, they were the masters of the castle. They were just a bunch of country bumpkins. Between the two of them, they were on a completely different level.
Seven Stars Emperor was one of the top combat strength in the ancient castles. However, he was merely an ordinary elder in the major families of Emperor City.
Not to mention Seven Stars Emperor, there were even many Eight Stars warriors, and even Nine Stars Emperor.
Right at this moment. . . . . .
Lin Tiannan immediately ordered him to leave, "Castle Lord Zhang, we still have a meeting to attend. Please leave!!"
"Lin Tiannan, you. . . " Zhang Gusheng's face was full of anger. He was the master of the Zhangjiabao, ranked in the top three of the thirty-six castles in the southeast. The Lin Family Castle could barely make it into the top twenty of the thirty-six castles in the southeast. He dared to do this.
"Castle Lord Zhang, please!!!" Lin Tiannan urged him again. In any case, his face was already red, so there was no need to give Zhang Gusheng any face.
"Lin Tiannan, aren't you afraid? Are the Zhangjiabao and Monarch Castle joining hands?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Tiannan's facial expression changed dramatically. With Yang Fann's help, it wasn't as if they didn't have the strength to fight the Monarch Castle, but. . . In addition to that, there was also the Zhangjiabao. It was a completely different story. With the combined strength of the five great Seven Stars Emperor, even Eight Stars Emperor would have the strength to fight. Adding on the dozens of six-star Emperor, even if Yang Fann was in the monster, it would be very difficult for him to be a match for them.
"It seems like I am being overly cautious. With just their tiny Lin Family Castle, how can those old masters of the noble families take a fancy to them?"
In the next moment. . .
"Hehe. . . Lin Tiannan, why do you have times when you are afraid?" Zhang Gusheng sneered. Before I have made up my mind to join the Monarch Castle. . . It's not too late for you to agree to the marriage between Yu Lin and your daughter. "
"Zhang Gusheng, you. . . You. . . " Lin Tiannan was so angry that he was trembling. He couldn't even speak properly.
At this moment. . .
A cold voice came from outside the hall, "What audacity! How dare you have designs on my Lin Family Castle? Uncle Lin, these two bastards, do you want to die or live?"
. . .
