Chapter 1053 1053 554 Secret Plan_2

Chapter 1053: Chapter 554 Secret Plan_2 Chapter 1053: Chapter 554 Secret Plan_2 While currently, since the cultivation world of the Wei Kingdom had regained its peace, and the Lin Family also possessed the power to protect itself, given Lin Tianming’s character, who heavily valued loyalty and righteousness, he was bound to try to find them.

Under such circumstances, Qin Xi certainly wouldn’t oppose Lin Tianming’s plan.

After all, it didn’t matter where she trained, the outcome would be largely the same.

She might as well take this opportunity to search for Lin Tianfeng with Lin Tianming, contributing her modest efforts.

With this thought in mind, Qin Xi agreed to Lin Tianming’s plan.

However, at this moment, Lin Tianming looked at Qin Xi as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, which made him recall something.

Immediately after, Lin Tianming took Qin Xi’s hand and asked with concern,

“Xi’er, you seem troubled. Could it be that you’re thinking about your grandfather’s enemy, the Chen Clan of the Hengyang Mountain Range?”

...

Upon hearing these words, Qin Xi’s expression did indeed become more serious, and a surge of vengeful spirit erupted within her.

At that moment, Qin Xi nodded and said, “Ming, the matter of avenging my grandfather has always been etched in my heart—I dare not forget it for a single moment!”

“Now that Xi’er has achieved the Golden Core Great Achievement, it’s time to avenge Grandpa and wash away our grievances!”

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded solemnly and then reached out to soothe Qin Xi.

The matter of Qin Xi’s revenge was something he had never forgotten either.

However, at the time when the Lin Family had yet to have any Golden Core Stage clansmen, they were faced with the onslaught of a beast tide.

At that time, the entire clan was in a life-or-death crisis, with no opportunity to make a move and without the absolute strength to obliterate the Chen Clan in a short time.

As for what followed, once there were Golden Core Stage clansmen, and after the war among the three sects, there still wasn’t the chance to act.

Until later, when peace gradually returned to the Wei Kingdom’s cultivation world, and the Lin Family had other significant plans in motion, it was still not appropriate to make a move against a Foundation Establishing Family that had a thousand-year heritage.

Now, the Lin Family’s territory was firmly in their grasp, and even if the Foundation Establishing Families banded together, they couldn’t stir up any trouble at all.

Under such circumstances, making a move against the Chen Clan now would be a swift and decisive strike that hardly required any effort.

As for the reason to act, the Lin Family could fabricate one with ease.

In the cultivation world where power is everything, as long as the Lin Family struck down with overwhelming force and eradicated the Chen Clan in one fell swoop, they would hold the ultimate power of interpretation.

In light of that, the Lin Family, being distinctly different from its past self, could now obliterate a Foundation Establishing Family without the other families or loose cultivators in the cultivation world daring to say much.

Understanding this, Lin Tianming quickly formulated a plan.

Thus, Lin Tianming said to Qin Xi, “Xi’er, I have long promised you that I would uproot the Chen Clan.”

“It’s just that over these past few years, the clan has been continuously troubled, and my own cultivation has also been greatly delayed.”

“Now, with our family stable and with our absolute strength, it’s indeed time to settle the score with the Chen Clan!”

Hearing Lin Tianming’s words, Qin Xi nodded vigorously, her heart swelling with excitement.

In her heart, the grievance for her grandfather had always weighed heavily, often leaving her feeling suffocated.

For this day, she had always cultivated diligently, just so she could personally eradicate the Chen Clan and exact revenge for her deceased grandfather.

Now, she was finally about to see this day arrive.

At this point, Lin Tianming continued, “However, obliterating the Chen Clan will necessitate careful planning to ensure there are no fish that slip through the net.”

“I will speak with the Clan Leader about this matter later and have him dispatch some clansmen to take up positions at key locations in the Qianchuan Mountain Range in advance, in case any from the Chen Clan try to escape.”

“At the same time, we can also gain a clear understanding of the movements of the Chen Clan members, so when we do make our move, we can capture them all in one go.”

“With the power our family wields now, eradicating the Chen Clan is nothing but a mere effort.”

“Once we ascertain the whereabouts of key members of the Chen Clan, I believe that in at most a year or two, we can take direct action!”

At Lin Tianming’s words, Qin Xi nodded.

“Ming, as for this matter, I’ll go along with your arrangement, Xi’er has no objections. After all these years of waiting, another one or two years don’t make much difference.”

Qin Xi said earnestly, her expression, once filled with killing intent, now became much more relaxed.

At this time, seeing that Qin Xi didn’t oppose such an arrangement, Lin Tianming confirmed the decision.

Then, the couple chatted idly for a few sentences, during which Lin Tianming sent out several messages.

Having done this, Lin Tianming left his own cave mansion and went to Lin Shikang’s.

There, the clan members of the Shi generation who received the messages all hurried over for a gathering.

After exchanging greetings, Lin Tianming cut to the chase and spoke of Qin Xi’s vendetta, recounting all that had transpired exactly as it happened.

Swiftly upon learning of these past grievences, Lin Shikang’s face turned cold, and murderous intent surged to the heavens.

As for the others, their faces darkened too, clearly angered.

In their eyes, they had always treated Qin Xi like the precious pearl in their palm, taking even greater care of Lin Tianming.

They had been clueless about these grievances as Lin Tianming hadn’t mentioned them before.

Now hearing him out, they realized what Qin Xi had endured, and it made them feel incredibly distraught.

At that moment, Lin Shikang spoke angrily, “The Chen Clan must be uprooted, every clan member annihilated, we will not tolerate a single one!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shilu added his voice.

“Third brother is right; the Chen Clan has provoked Xi’er and incurred a deep blood feud. They deserve their fate. We needn’t show any mercy.”

“In my opinion, we should strike them with the force of thunderous bolts, erasing the Chen Clan from the cultivation world. After all, our Lin Family now possesses the power to do so.”

Hearing these words, Lin Shihua by their side took up the conversation.

“Third brother, annihilating the Chen Clan is indeed as easy as lifting a hand for us. We needn’t exert much effort.”

“However, considering the aftermath, we should still proceed carefully.”

“In my view, we should send clan members to the Qianchuan Mountain Range to first ascertain the whereabouts of their core family members. This will help us eliminate them swiftly and silently in the shortest possible time.”

“After all, the Chen Clan is still unaware that Qin Xi is one of our Lin Family Members. If we send out members to gather intelligence now, we’ll hardly startle the snake.”

As the Clan Leader, Lin Shihua’s considerations were indeed comprehensive and coincided with Lin Tianming’s thinking.

Thus, Lin Tianming also expressed his agreement.

“Twelfth Grandpa speaks wisely!”

“Although we have the absolute strength to annihilate them on their home ground and other forces in the Cultivation World wouldn’t dare say much, if we can resolve this in the most secure way, minimizing negative impact on the Lin Family, we don’t mind another year or two.”

At this moment, Lin Shikang and the others nodded at Lin Tianming’s words.

Soon after, Lin Shikang took the lead in expressing his agreement with Lin Shihua’s plan.

Seeing this, Lin Shilu and the others also agreed that Lin Shihua’s plan was indeed more prudent and refrained from objections.

With that, the plan to move against the Chen Clan was formally decided.

The group then discussed specific details and set a date two years later for the Lin Family to take comprehensive action and begin the extermination of the Chen Clan.

With the matter settled, Lin Shihua immediately began making arrangements.

Soon, Lin Xingzhi received a message from Lin Shihua, instructing him to lead twenty Foundation Establishment Cultivators and over a hundred Late Stage Qi Refining Clan Members to the Chen Clan’s current location in the Qianchuan Mountain Range, to secretly station there for several years.

Additionally, Lin Shihua tasked him with secretly investigating the whereabouts of the Chen Clan’s core family members and to keep a constant watch on their every move.

Once certain conditions were met, Lin Tianming and his wife would personally take action, breaking the Chen Clan’s Mountain Protection Array, and annihilating everyone within the Chen Clan’s grounds.

With these plans set in motion under Lin Shihua’s personal supervision, they were carried out in an orderly and methodical manner.
