"Uncle Yu, Uncle Yu?" Lin Tian tightly held onto Uncle Yu as he let out a low and deep roar.

Uncle Yu was just a mortal, not a martial artist, and he could not defy the heavens. After being tormented for so many days, it was not easy for him to hold on up until now, but to save Uncle Yu was already an impossible task.

But because of this, Lin Tian was even more enraged. If Uncle Yu hadn't been tortured for so many days, he definitely wouldn't have died.

He had actually left behind his last breath just to tell Lin Tian of his true background.

This made Lin Tian feel even more both grief and anger. He regretted his previous carelessness. If he had already thought highly of Uncle Yu, then such a thing definitely would not have happened.

Of course, Lin Tian hated King Yongan even more, Luo Lie!

Lin Tian gently let go of Uncle Yu and placed him on the ground. His gaze suddenly shifted to Xiao Chen, "You heard what Uncle Yu said. Tell me your identity!"

Xiao Chen was slightly stunned before he reacted. However, Xiao Chen did not hesitate and directly knelt in front of Lin Tian, "The descendant of the Lin Clan's Tiger Cavalry greets the Young Master!"

"Tiger Cavalry?" In the Lin Family's army, there were three main forces: the Eagle Army, the Tiger Cavalry Army, and the Blood Leopard Battalion.

The Eagle Squad was the Flying Army, the Tiger Cavalry was the cavalry, and the Blood Leopard Battalion was the Warriors.

These three main forces were what made the marshal famous all those years ago.

However, after the Lin Clan was destroyed, the Lin Clan troops were also cleansed.

The Eagle Army, the Tiger Cavalry Army, and the Blood Leopard Battalion were all not preserved.

He did not expect that this Xiao Chen was actually a descendant of the Tiger Cavalry.

Lin Tian pondered for a moment. Only now did he think about it. Wasn't the commander of the Tiger Cavalry Army the famous Iron Blood Generals Xiao Junjun who had the title of "War God?"

Xiao Jun was a close friend of the marshal and a brother of the marshal.

Xiao Chen's surname was also Xiao; could it be that he was the descendant of General Xiao Zhenjun?

According to what Uncle Yu said, Lin Tian was the descendant of the Lin Clan. Then this Xiao Chen in front of him had a very deep connection with him.

No wonder when Xiao Chen first saw him, he appeared somewhat unnatural. Furthermore, he kept saying some nonsense that was impossible to go against.

However, from Xiao Chen's words, it seemed that he did not approve of his young master's status …

"You are the descendant of General Xiao Zhenjun?" Lin Tian stared at Xiao Chen with a burning gaze.

"Reporting to Young Master, that's right. I am the Commander of the Tiger Cavalry, Xiao Junjun's 15th generation, Xiao Chen." Xiao Chen replied respectfully.

"It's also fifteen generations, and just happens to be of the same generation. There's no need to kneel, get up." The fact that Xiao Chen revealed his identity made Lin Tian very curious.

"Thank you, Young Lord." Xiao Chen stood up, but he still bent his waist as he spoke.

"How do you know about me?" Lin Tian walked in front of Xiao Chen, his voice somewhat playful: "What I meant was that the first time you saw me, you already knew that I was Lin Tian. Furthermore, at that time, did you guess that I was a descendant of the Lin Clan?"

"Reporting to Young Lord, although our Xiao family's leader was purged, because our Xiao family produced a martial general and had been loyal and devoted for many years, the Tian Luo Kingdom's King did not attack. Our Xiao family was lucky enough to survive." Xiao Chen replied, "However, for so many years, the Xiao Clan has always had its ancestors' teachings. Since the beginning of the Xiao Clan, they were all servants of the Lin Clan. For one day, they were followers of the clan, and for every generation, they are servants of the clan.

"Our Xiao family's previous head, my father, died on the battlefield. I was raised by my master, but my master was also a member of the Xiao family. Although the Xiao family only has me alive, we cannot forget our ancestor's teachings!" When Xiao Chen said this, Lin Tian clearly felt Xiao Chen was a little disappointed.

Ten years ago, when Master asked around, he finally found out about your background and whereabouts. Since ten years ago, when I just started remembering, Master would go down the mountain every year. When he came back, he only brought one painting.

Xiao Chen suddenly raised his head, "That painting is you."

The person in the painting was called Lin Tian, the fifteenth generation of the Lin Clan. He was my Young Master, the Young Master of my Xiao Clan, and I, Xiao Chen, must follow him for my entire life. Even if I die, the Young Master must live on. Xiao Chen's voice suddenly became excited.

"I grew up with you, Young Lord." Xiao Chen's voice was somewhat deep and low. It was obvious that he was very dejected, "I will become a shadow and live under the Young Master's body for my entire life."

"You feel that it's unfair to yourself?" Lin Tian understood Xiao Chen's meaning and could not help but ask him a question. There was a smile on his face before he added: "Tell me the truth."

"Unfair!" Xiao Chen's eyes immediately turned red, "My young master, if you were born, someone would tell you that you would become the shadow of someone else. You would not be able to live as you are, but become a shadow and live in the world of others.

"If your dearest, most beloved, and most respected master were to go down the mountain and bring back a painting with an unfamiliar person on it, then your master would tell you that you would be risking your life for him. After dying, what would you think?"

"If you were born, you would know that you have a laughable problem, but you have to inherit the teachings of your ancestors. Moreover, you would also meet that so-called young master. What would you think?" When he finished speaking, Xiao Chen's voice had already started to roar.

"I don't want to live in the shadow of others. I don't want to be the shadow of others, and I also don't want to follow the ridiculous teachings of my ancestors. I don't want to have any young master either. I only want to be myself, to be Xiao Chen." Xiao Chen instantly cried. He had always thought that what his master said was a lie and a lie. However, he did not expect that after staying on the mountain for fifteen years, he would meet his young master the moment he entered the mountain.

How could he not recognize Lin Tian in an instant? How could he not be depressed?

However, he was powerless. His master told him that he had to carry it out because his surname was Xiao. He was Xiao Zhenjun's descendant, and he was a servant of the Lin Family.

Lin Tian smiled faintly: "Xiao Chen, are you in a miserable state?"

"I'm much more miserable than you. I've never seen my parents since I was young. I've always thought of myself as an orphan. My only family, Uncle Yu, is also lying there right now." Lin Tian forced a smile.

"Not long ago, my meridians were destroyed, and my dantian was crippled. Even the woman I had always liked became the young prince's plaything." Complaining is not a way to solve the problem, and I have never given up. I have always worked hard in my cultivation and become a genius in the eyes of the people, but I am still weak. Before, I could not protect myself, so I was crippled.

"But even so, I have never given up. I have never been defeated, I killed Luo Chen who crippled me in the same way, his father wanted to kill me, that bitch who betrayed me, although I didn't kill her, she also died, that was the result of her committing unjustifiable acts." Lin Tian said without a trace of emotion.

So, Xiao Chen, what I want to tell you is this: The heart of a strong person has never been defeated. The only thing that can defeat you is you, and Luo Lie will not defeat me. I swear, with the death of Uncle Yu, I will make Luo Lie return a thousand, ten thousand times more. Lin Tian's voice became vicious.

"So, do you understand what I mean by saying all this?" Lin Tian suddenly raised his head and met Xiao Chen's gaze.

Xiao Chen was startled, as though he did not know what Lin Tian was trying to say.

"I, Lin Tian, in the name of the Lin Clan's 15th generation grandson, I request the heavens and earth to bear witness, to witness the death of the deceased ancestor, Lin Wudi, and the deceased soul of General Xiao Zhenjun. Today, I will expel the status of servant of the Xiao Clan, from today onwards, the Lin Clan will still be here, but if the servant is not here, I will strip away all the families that are related to the Lin Clan. Lin Tian suddenly raised the Dragon Scale Spear in his hand and roared towards the sky.

"I, Lin Tian, will bear all the all the sins and punishments. I also swear to the heavens that as long as I, Lin Tian, am still alive, I will make the royal family of Tian Luo who destroyed my Lin Clan disappear! I, Lin Tian, will live for one day and force my parents to leave the Emerald Holy Valley. Lin Tian made two oaths in succession.

Thunder rumbled in the sky and then disappeared a moment later.

This was an oath to the Dao of the Heavens!

Xiao Chen looked at Lin Tian in disbelief. His heart was filled with shock.

Lin Tian had actually forcefully stripped his Xiao family of their position as a servant. This meant that the Xiao family's ancestor teachings had no meaning in existing because the Xiao family was a servant that had been expelled by the main family.

This was an oath made by the Dao of the Heavens. The moment he spoke, it would be impossible to retract it.

For people on the Sky Dragon Continent, mortals need not worry about the effects of oaths. However, it was impossible for cultivators to do so because all the power they possessed came from heaven and earth.

So to abide by the rules of the Heavenly Dao, Lin Tian had just sworn an oath to the heavens and the earth. The rules of the Heavenly Dao would acknowledge Lin Tian's oath.

Oaths to the Dao of the Heavens were always very prudent for martial cultivators. Normally, they would not rashly swear such an oath.

But Lin Tian was so popular?

"Xiao Chen, in the end, you only want to be free. I will give you freedom!" Lin Tian quietly said to Xiao Chen: "Lin Clan, I, Lin Tian, am enough."

"However, what I want to tell you is something that no one can take away from you. If you want to stand on your own feet, you must have the heart of a powerful warrior!" Lin Tian muttered to himself. He seemed to be talking to Xiao Chen, perhaps to himself.
