Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

Chapter 118: Encountering Lin Dong Again

"So this is the Great Wilderness Stele..." Lin Langtian mused, slightly moved by its grandeur. Suddenly, a familiar voice called out to him.

"Brother Langtian!"

Recognizing the voice, Lin Langtian looked over at the Lin Clan's group, smiling as he saw the familiar faces. "Oh, it's you, Ke'er…"

It was indeed the Lin Clan's group, who had also come to the Great Wilderness Stele.

"Langtian greets Elder Lin Luo, Uncle Lin Fan, and Uncle Lin Kong." As he approached, Lin Langtian respectfully greeted the three leading elders from the Lin Clan. Although he had grown far stronger than them, he still maintained the due respect for his seniors.

"Hehe, there's no need to be so formal, Langtian. You're practically the pride of the clan now; such politeness makes us feel unworthy!" Elder Lin Luo chuckled, clearly pleased with Langtian. Even these senior members of the clan looked up to him after the remarkable feat he'd achieved—defeating a peak Creation Realm master.

"Yes, Langtian's strength surely rivals even the clan leader now," the other two elders added with admiration.

Langtian smiled humbly, choosing to keep his usual imposing demeanor in check around his clan members.

"Brother Langtian, we've all missed you a lot while you've been overseeing Black Rock Manor," Lin Ke'er and the younger members gathered around him, their eyes full of admiration. Lin Langtian's accomplishments had elevated him to almost legendary status among the younger generation, especially after the Black Rock Manor incident.

"Don't worry. Once this is over, I'll be back with the clan, just in time for the family tournament next year," he said, smiling.

"Really? That means we can ask Brother Langtian for more training tips! With your strength, Brother Langtian, there's no way anyone in the family tournament or even the regional selection could stand against you!" Lin Chen said, his admiration evident.

Lin Langtian smiled faintly. With his current strength, few in the Great Yan Kingdom's entire senior generation could challenge him.

Just then, he noticed a sudden murmur of interest ripple through the crowd. "The Huangpu Clan is here," someone whispered. Lin Langtian glanced up instinctively and saw a towering sword aura in the distance. Riding atop it was a slender, graceful figure, standing like a goddess.

"Huangpu Jing…" Lin Langtian muttered, recognizing the woman dressed in a pale green robe. Though he knew that Qingzhu had already left the Great Yan Kingdom, he couldn't help feeling a pang of disappointment. But he quickly shook off the sentiment—if he was strong enough, nothing in the world would be beyond reach. The only thing that could limit him was his own weakness.

At that moment, another exclamation echoed across the wilderness. "That Lin Dong from the Wildland Prefecture has defeated Wang Yan, the top talent of the Wang Clan!"

A blinding burst of golden light exploded in the sky, flooding the heavens in a radiant glow. Lin Langtian's gaze sharpened as he looked up, following the source of the commotion.

In the air, a golden storm raged as two figures collided—one wielding a fist, the other a spear. The impact of their clash created a shockwave that rippled outward in a fearsome energy storm.

"Boom!" Both figures were flung backward, but one of them—Wang Yan—fell more severely, crashing to the ground and skidding across it, leaving a deep trench hundreds of meters long.

"Did Lin Dong actually beat Wang Yan?" Lin Chen and the others squeezed through the crowd to watch the fight unfold. Lin Ke'er clasped her hands over her mouth, eyes wide with shock.

Only a year ago, Lin Dong's strength had barely reached the small complete Yuan Dan stage. Yet, within just one year, he had defeated a top prodigy like Wang Yan!

"Lin Dong… Isn't he the older brother of Lin Qing Tan, the one you brought back from the Lin Clan's Fen Branch?" asked Elder Lin Luo, his eyes narrowing slightly as he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Yes, that's right," Langtian replied, smiling. "Lin Dong and his sister Qing Tan are both incredibly talented—maybe even as talented as me."

Langtian's words immediately left the Lin Clan members stunned. Langtian was undoubtedly the most talented clan member in hundreds of years, yet he had compared these two young ones to himself?

Langtian simply smiled at their astonishment. To be honest, even he couldn't fully measure up to Lin Dong and Qing Tan's unique gifts. Their abilities were truly exceptional.

"Haha, regardless, it's great that our Lin Clan has gained two more outstanding young talents. This bodes well for the future of the Lin Clan!" Elder Lin Luo said with a proud smile. He'd met Lin Qing Tan in the clan before and had been deeply impressed by her natural talent. While he wasn't as familiar with Lin Dong, defeating Wang Yan and receiving Langtian's praise marked him as no ordinary young talent.

After Wang Yan's defeat, an elder from the Wang Clan stepped forward, glaring at Lin Dong with a cold glint in his eyes. The old man, his hair gray and his gaze sharp, suddenly turned his attention to Lin Langtian and his group. Seeing them, his expression shifted, and he called out, "Lin Langtian! Since this Lin Dong is technically of the Lin Clan, his actions are damaging the relationship between our two families. Don't you think you should intervene?"

Hearing this, Lin Langtian paused, then let a faint, wry smile tug at his lips. Turning to the Wang Clan elder, he responded coolly, "If even the Wang Clan can't handle a branch family member from the Lin Clan, perhaps you should reflect on your own inadequacies rather than blame us."
