Lin Shen hesitated for a moment, but chose to do so. Closing her eyes, she gently opened her mouth.

"No, father, you have to open your mouth a bit more." Lin Qi reminded.

Lin Shen hesitated for a moment and thought for a long time. Finally, she reluctantly opened her mouth wide.

With a wave of his hand, Lin Qi took out a Blood Qilin fruit from his soul hole and forcefully stuffed it into Lin Shen's mouth.

Then, before he could even react, his palm had propped up his chin, causing him to directly swallow the palm-sized Blood Qilin fruit into his stomach.

Lin Shen's body shook as he held his throat and retched. He wanted to vomit but was unable to do so.

"Little bastard, what did you give me to eat?" Lin Shen flew into a rage.

Lin Qi did not reply, but observed his every move. Soon, Lin Shen's skin was burning, red and hot, smoke rising from his seven orifices. His entire body seemed to be burning.

His hair was tied up, the veins on his arms and forehead were popping out, thick smoke was constantly coming out of his mouth and nose, and his face was slightly contorted, showing an expression of pain.

"You little bastard, are you trying to kill me?" Lin Shen was truly a little angry. In fact, it was really painful.

Lin Qi was stupefied, and his face was filled with astonishment. In fact, he didn't know what reaction the Blood Lin fruits would have if he swallowed them.

He had been too careless. He should have allowed his father to swallow this first. Wasn't this a scam?

However, he was able to discern that although the Blood Unicorn Fruit caused Lin Shen to feel pain, it wouldn't cause his life to be in danger.

As he thought of this, his heart relaxed. Seeing how his father was enraged, his legs softened, and he ran away gloomily.

When they were far away from the camp, they could still hear their father's roar. They were so shocked that a large number of the soldiers were at a loss, thinking that an assassin had barged in.

Lin Xing reminded him that the great general was currently training, so there was no need to disturb him.

Only then did everyone return to their posts with weird looks on their faces.

On his way back to his tent, he met an old friend, Jue.

If they collided head on, it would be impossible to dodge. Especially for Jue, the embarrassment on his face was obvious.

"Have you been doing well these past two years?"

The two of them stopped and looked at each other. Jue guiltily lowered his head and asked gently.

Lin Xing was unperturbed. He calmly replied, "It's quite alright. What about you?"

Jue raised his head, and a complicated look flashed across his eyes as he said, "I'm doing quite well too."

It had been two years, but when they met for the first time, they were speechless. When he chose to follow Liu Fengyu, he was destined to break off all ties with Lin Xing.

Lin Qi was clear about this, and a gap had already formed in his heart. What happened in the past was like a wind blowing into the distance, and in the future, they would be the same type of people.

"Since it's all right, then I will go back. It's not good to be seen by Brother Liu." Jue sighed, also feeling some regret. He sympathized very much with what Lin Ming had experienced.

He brushed past him.

"Hold on."

She had only taken two steps when she was stopped by Lin Xing. She turned around with her hands clasped together, twisting and turning her fingers. For some reason, she felt uncomfortable in front of Lin Qi. Perhaps it was due to guilt.

"I heard that I was able to return safely this time. You spoke up for my father, which is why I have a chance to mobilize eight hundred thousand soldiers. Thank you."

No matter what, since Jue had helped him, no matter what happened in the future, he still had to thank her.

"Then I will accept your thanks, big brother Lin Xing." Xuan Jue's face was gentle as it emitted a faint red light.

Hearing her address him, Lin Qi felt as if his heart had been pierced by needles. His face revealed a look of melancholy and nostalgia.

Calming himself down, he opened his mouth and smiled. Then, he took a step forward and left. His back was facing the opposite direction and they would never meet again.

That Xuan Jue shook his head and bitterly smiled. With his back facing them, he also left. Lin Qi was destined to stop at the Heaven Smiting Stage for his entire life, but she still had the potential to reach even higher heights.

He returned to his tent and rested for the night. The next day, he quietly left with Ah Shan.

The 50,000 officers of Black Wind Mountain that came with him had also stayed behind. His father spoke softly here and needed the army to increase its strength. As for the affairs of the Azure Silver Country, he was confident that he could handle them.

In addition, there were two elephants guarding the border. They also had an army in their hands, so if there really were any special circumstances, it wouldn't be too late for them to transfer them over.

Lin Xing and Ah Shan were in a good mood as they strolled along the road, enjoying the scenery and sightseeing. It took them a full twenty days before they returned to the general's mansion.

What made him surprised was that two months had passed, and that fairy called 'Kid Liang' still hadn't left. This included many Flower Protectors.

Of course, there were also a few Flower Protectors who left impatiently, leaving behind people who were blindly obsessed with fairies.

After returning to the manor, Lin Xing returned to his room to rest.

Although he had left for a very long time, the system had not changed. There were also those businesses that were still operating, and every day, a large amount of spirit crystals would enter the treasury.

Lin Xing had just fallen asleep when Gu Yuan burst through the door. After he received the news that Lin Xin had returned, he couldn't wait to find him.

Lin Xing knew that he cared about his father. Otherwise, with his impassive personality, nothing could make him panic.

"What is the situation on this trip? Is there anything wrong with your foster father? " Gu Yuan rushed into the room and asked this question. Furthermore, he asked two questions in a row.

Lin Qi smiled as he shook his head. Walking up to him, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Father is fine. The front lines have regained their calm."

Gu Yuan nodded with ease. It could be seen that he was truly happy from the bottom of his heart.

He was the adopted son of Lin Shen, who lived with his sister until he was three years old. Lin Shen saw that he had extraordinary roots, so he brought him back to the mansion to be nurtured.

Lin Xing asked, "How is everything in the estate?"

"Everything is normal. That fairy also strictly ordered that no one was allowed to disturb her cultivation, so no one dared to cause trouble." Gu Yuan said.

Lin Qi knew that this was all just the surface talk of this kid. Who knew where he had gone to look for the Lost City behind his back? However, this was good as well. Even the general's manor was basking in the light, intimidating a group of small fries.

After that, Lin Xing recounted his experiences in detail to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan was also extremely shocked as the corners of his mouth twitched.

After that, Gu Yuan left and Lin Xing slept soundly. Everything in the general's manor became quiet.

According to the rules, those who came with the fairy could not stay in the general's manor without the spirit crystals. Every day, there would be people who came after the news.

Lin Xing ordered his men to expand the general's mansion, building it for the people to live in. This was a huge income.

Afterwards, Lin Xing issued another rule: I can only stay here for five hundred spirit crystals for one month. After one month, I have to collect the fees, or else I will pack up my bags and leave.

Immediately, the entire city was abuzz with curses and insults, all aimed at him. Someone was holding a Pig Slaughtering Knife and was speaking out in front of the general's manor, wanting to challenge his authority. Lin Xing must be crazy to think about money, right?
