Lin Fenggu was stunned, as her ears buzzed. She felt like all the blood in her body had surged to her face. She had been completely refuted by the Lin family’s decision maker in the Lin family’s Elders meeting.
As for what the Matriarch said, “What use is there for the family to keep a person like you?”
Lin Fenggu’s old face flushed and this blood-red color spread to her neck. She stood there without speaking a word.
Behind Lin Fenggu, Lin Yu was also standing stiffly at his seat. From the moment he stood up, he had not even finish speaking a sentence, but left hanging there. It was extremely embarrassing.
Hearing the Matriarch decide on the matter, he felt like his entire self had been emptied.
He felt that the gaze from the surrounding juniors had changed from envy and jealousy to sympathy.
After all, Yi Yun had the Matriarch backing him. He may have strong backing, but it was not stronger than Yi Yun’s.
“I… I cannot accept it!” Lin Yu clenched his fists tightly as his body began to lightly tremble. He did not dare to shout this out and had only transmitted his voice to Lin Fenggu, “I want to fight Yi Yun. In terms of martial ability, what is he!? I can completely destroy him without a weapon!”
Lin Yu’s Yuan Qi transmission was full of irreconciliation. However, Lin Fenggu only shook her head, “So what if you can win against him? Do you think the Matriarch does not know that your martial ability far exceeds that of Yi Yun’s? However, she will not let you go, as this is a reward for Yi Yun.”
With Lin Fenggu saying this, Lin Yu felt like a deflated ball. Yes, even if he did defeat Yi Yun in a showdown, so what? So what if he had mercilessly beat down Yi Yun?
It was even to the point that the Matriarch would not even grant his request to have a martial showdown. In the Matriarch’s eyes, Yi Yun’s value was not something he could compete with.
“This matter is already decided. Do not think of replacing Yi Yun, however… you can take advantage of the period where the God Burial Abyss’s demon-like tidal strength has not weakened, and work hard cultivating. If you reach the peak of the Yuan foundation realm, then you would not need to compete with Yi Yun for a spot. There are still a few spots left, so maybe you can obtain one of those.”
Lin Fenggu’s transmission meant that they had to take up second best. It was not impossible to obtain a spot for those who were at the peak-Yuan foundation realm and above.
“Peak of the Yuan foundation realm…”
Lin Yu’s eyebrows ticked. If the God Burial Abyss could be opened half a year later, then he could indeed breakthrough to the peak of the Yuan foundation realm before it happened.
Even if it was shorter, he could still break through, but it would be inevitable that he would have progressed too fast in his cultivation level. His foundation would be affected by that.
To geniuses, rashly breaking through was not a good thing.
“I understand…”
Lin Yu endured this grievance and sat back at his seat.
