My Cultivation Prowess Peaks after I Buried the Great Emperor's Corpse

Chapter 10: Expulsion from the Ancestral Lineage and Family

To the east of Qing Yuan Ancient City was a large clan.

They were the Lin Clan!

It had nearly 500 years of heritage and was extremely powerful in its foundation and strength. It also firmly controlled more than half of the resources in the Qing Yuan Ancient City.

They were dominant!

Zichen Palace.

It was the most majestic place in the Lin Clan and symbolized power and status.

In the vast hall, the figures of the clan elders were seated. All had grave expressions. Some had intense anger floating in their eyes, while others were terrified.

The leader of the group was a dignified middle-aged man in black.

His name was Lin Tiannan, and he was the current clan leader of the Lin Clan!

His cultivation had also reached the middle stage of the Wheel of Life realm. In Qing Yuan Ancient City, he was undoubtedly one of the strongest.

Now, he was like the other elders in the hall, frowning. There was anger and worry in his eyes that could not be dissolved.

Because they all knew everything that had happened to the Jiang Clan!

“Let’s talk about how we should deal with Lin Wudao.”

There was a long silence until Lin Tiannan finally said.

The people present frowned even more!

“Clan leader, we should immediately expel Lin Wudao from the Lin Clan. From now on, we should draw a clear line with him, and he would no longer be a Lin Clan descendant.”

“This kid is extremely arrogant and audacious!”

“I don’t know what kind of bullsh*t fortune he obtained, but by chance, he got the strength of the Wheel of Life realm, and now he thinks so highly of himself, aggressively killing his way into the Jiang Clan. He’s simply lawless.”

“Now, Jiang Qingxue has become the ninth successive disciple of the Taixuan Sect. With such a big change happening to the Jiang Clan, the Taixuan Sect will not sit by and do nothing.”

“Once the Taixuan Sect blames us, our Lin Clan can’t bear the responsibility!”

“Therefore, before the people of the Taixuan Sect arrive, we should quickly draw a clear line with him and cut off our relationship so that he won’t implicate us!”

A clan elder with a fiery temper stood up and shouted.

His words were filled with hostility!

Lin Tiannan did not say anything but looked at the rest of the people in the room.

“Clan leader, I agree with the three clan elders’ suggestion. We should expel Lin Wudao from the Lin Clan!”

“I also agree!”

“Lin Wudao is a scourge. If left alone, he’ll bring disaster to the Lin Clan one day. Therefore, he must be removed as soon as possible.”

“That’s right. Our Lin Clan doesn’t want such a person!”

…

The clan elders chimed in one after another.

Lin Tiannan frowned at the scene.

“What do you think, Grand Elder?”

He turned his gaze to the red-robed old man in the lower left corner.

“Clan leader, our Lin Clan will be 500 years old in a few days. Heaven will send down a calamity at that time to test the clan’s strength.”

“If we can survive the Great Tribulation of High Heavens, the Lin Clan will receive gifts and rewards from the heavens. By then, everyone in the Lin Clan will be like dragons, and our strength and foundation will skyrocket.”

“But if we can’t, the Lin Clan will be in deep trouble!”

“With the current situation, having one more helper is ideal…”

The Grand Elder said slowly.

The Great Tribulation of High Heavens?

Hearing these words, everyone’s expression changed, including the clan leader Lin Tiannan.

This was a test from the heavens!

All the factions in the divine wilderness could not escape.

For forces like the Lin Clan, the High Heaven would send down a test every 500 years. If they successfully passed it, their strength would skyrocket. However, if they failed, they would have to accept the punishment from the heavens.

This was equivalent to a promotion!

No matter who it was or how large and ancient their forces were, they had to be extremely careful when facing the Great Tribulation of High Heavens.

They were afraid they would die without a burial ground if they were not careful!

Therefore, the Lin Clan was also filled with fear!

Yet, this was not a reason for Lin Wudao to stay.

“Clan leader, we can’t let Lin Wudao stay!”

“Now, the matter of the Jiang Clan has been published on the Heavenly Treasure Mirror by the owner of the Human World Tower. It has been spread throughout the entire Li Dynasty and even the land of Jiuzhou.”

“It’s predicted that someone from the Taixuan Sect will come in less than three days!”

“My Lin Clan will be blamed at that time, and we can’t afford to take that responsibility!”

The three clan elders roared again.

Their voices were extremely urgent!

Many people agreed.

“Clan leader, the three elder’s words are reasonable. Therefore, Lin Wudao must be expelled from the Lin Clan.”

“Let’s not care about the Great Tribulation of High Heavens. Let’s deal with the Taixuan Sect first. If we don’t handle this well, our Lin Clan will be destroyed before the Great Tribulation of High Heavens arrives.”

“Clan leader, don’t hesitate anymore. Expel Lin Wudao from the clan!”

“Lin Wudao can’t remain in the clan…”

…

Everyone said the same thing!

Upon hearing this, Lin Tiannan was silent for a long time before finally nodding.

“Since all the elders have agreed, we will expel Lin Wudao from the Lin Clan’s ancestral records. Therefore, he will have nothing to do with our Lin Clan from today onwards.”

“Clan elders, go to the Human World Tower immediately and release this news to the Heavenly Treasure Mirror. At least let the Taixuan Sect see our attitude.”

“In addition, send someone to inform Lin Wudao!”

“Yes!”

The three clan elders left, their hearts filled with joy.

Seeing this, the Grand Elder sighed slightly. Everyone was on the same page, and even if he wanted to retain Lin Wudao temporarily, it was impossible.

After all, although the Lin Clan was strong, they could not afford to offend the Taixuan Sect!

For the sake of the clan’s survival, they could only sacrifice Lin Wudao.

…

Lin Wudao, who was in Worriless Manor, had no idea what had happened to the Lin Clan.

The Lin Clan was very efficient!

After announcing Lin Wudao’s expulsion from the Human World Tower, one of the three clan elders, Lin Tianhe, immediately rushed to Worriless Manor.

Han Qingshan was very surprised by his arrival.

That was because ever since Lin Daoshan had passed away, the Lin Clan had never set foot in Worriless Manor.

“May I know the reason for your visit?”

Han Qingshan did not give him a good look.

Lin Tianhe snorted coldly.

“Today, I’ve come to inform you that given Lin Wudao’s audacious and presumptuous actions, after a unanimous discussion in the Lin Clan, we’ve decided to expel Lin Wudao from the sect’s records.”

“From today onwards, the Lin Clan and Lin Wudao will have nothing to do with each other!”

What?

Was he expelled from the sect?

Han Qingshan was instantly enraged upon hearing this.

“What a great Lin Clan. The old Master helped and protected them many times when he was alive. But, who would have thought that in the end, all he got in return was the expulsion of his son from the clan!”

“Dogs have eaten your conscience!”

“If the old Master were still alive, would you dare to be so presumptuous?”

The more he spoke, the angrier he became!

However, Lin Tianhe did not care about Han Qingshan’s intense humiliation and anger, nor did he take it to heart.

In his opinion, the Lin Clan did not lack a Lin Wudao!

Without him, the Lin Clan would still be able to survive. His attachment to the clan would only bring a great disaster to the Lin Clan.

If so, it would be better for him to be expelled from the clan as soon as possible to avoid future trouble!

“Today, I’m only here to inform you, not to listen to your nonsense. This is the result of the discussion. You have to admit it, whether you want to or not.”

“Also, from now on, you are not allowed to use the identity of the Lin Clan to deceive others. You are no longer a member of the Lin Clan!”

Lin Tianhe threw a proposal to Han Qingshan and left.

Although Han Qingshan felt highly humiliated and angry, he could do nothing. He could only pick up the proposal on the ground and head to Lin Wudao’s room.

“Young Master, the Lin Clan is here. They …”

“I already know what happened.”

“I don’t need a mere Lin Clan identity!”

A calm voice came from the room.

In reality, he had never placed the Lin Clan in his eyes!
