Fenglin Town, the Lin family, the residence of the Great Elder.

Da Chang sat in his chair, his face expressionless, and the gray room made his face look extremely gloomy.

Five steps in front of him, stood a young man with a beaming face that contrasted sharply with the Great Elder.

This person is none other than the only son of the Great Elder, Lin Tao.

Lin Tao's voice was also filled with joy: "Father, it seems that it is impossible for that waste to come back, should we immediately choose the patriarch heir?"

The Great Elder was still expressionless, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry in his voice: "I said that you must be cautious in everything. There is still half an hour left before the appointed time, and if we can't wait to re-elect the heir now, we will be left behind and people will be laughed at. Wait another half hour. ”

Lin Tao's voice was full of impatience: "Then I'll wait for another half an hour." Half an hour later, we will start to re-elect the heirs. Father, no one else will come out to fight with me, will they?"

The Great Elder's gloomy voice said, "Don't worry, I've already arranged it. As long as Lin Xiaodong doesn't appear, you must be the new patriarch. ”

An irrepressible smile appeared on Lin Tao's face: "Among the younger generation, only I am the strongest, and if others want to compete with me, it will be humiliating." Between the words, pride was revealed.

At this time, a servant's voice came from outside the door: "Great Elder, Young Master Lin...... No, it's Lin Xiaodong, he's back!"

"What?" The joy on Lin Tao's face suddenly converged, and it was replaced by coldness, "That waste still dares to come back?"

The Great Elder was still expressionless: "Where is it?"

"Just outside the gate. ”

Lin Tao immediately turned around: "It's okay to come back, wait for me to clean up this waste, so that he will not dare to step into the Lin family for half a step again." ”

"Come back!" the Great Elder called Lin Tao, "There are rules for everything, since he is back, then follow the rules." ”

Although Lin Tao was unwilling, he didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the Great Elder, and said respectfully: "Yes, father." ”

......

It's midday in summer, and the sun is scorching.

In the town of Maple Grove, a heat wave hits.

However, at the main entrance of the Lin family, there was a cold atmosphere.

The five elders of the Lin family, more than ten sixth-order masters, more than thirty young generation martial artists, and more than a hundred people in the nursing house, all stood at the gate, staring at the street in front of them.

The pedestrians on the street, under the power of so many people in the Lin family, all shrank on both sides of the street and whispered about it.

"The young master of the Lin family's waste wood is back. ”

"Today is the day of the three-year covenant, and he came back to take the position of the first chief. ”

"Just him, don't be kidding, he has only been a first-order martial artist after cultivating for more than ten years, and now after going out for half a year, the ghost believes that he can cultivate to the third order. ”

"When he came back this time, he was simply caught in the net. ”

At this time, in the middle of the street, a man strode in.

Lin Dong!

He took firm and powerful steps, step by step, towards the main gate of the Lin family.

Everyone on both sides of the street was immediately silent, and their eyes were firmly fixed on this young master of waste wood.

At this time, a person suddenly popped out of the crowd and grabbed Lin Dong's arm: "Young Master, you can't go back, they will kill you!"

Lin Dong turned his head and saw that this person was his father's most powerful assistant before his death, Xu Ran.

He patted Xu Ran's arm: "Uncle Xu, they don't have that ability yet." ”

Xu Ran was stunned, how could the young master speak like a different person?

In his moment, Lin Dong had already strode forward, and only then did he stand still twenty meters in front of the main gate.

"Lin Xiaodong, do you dare to come back?" Lin Tao was the first to speak, and his tone was full of disdain.

Lin Dong's eyes swept over Lin Tao's face, and finally landed on the face of the Great Elder: "I'm here to fulfill the three-year covenant!"

Lin Tao saw that this waste actually ignored him directly, and he was immediately angry: "You have been cultivating for more than ten years, but you have not reached the second order, what can you use to practice the three-year covenant?"

Lin Dong didn't even glance at Lin Tao this time, still staring at the Great Elder.

Lin Tao couldn't help but be furious, and was about to point at Lin Dong and scold.

The Great Elder snorted coldly: "Lin Tao, step aside!"

Although Lin Tao was unwilling, he had to bow his head and retreat, and could only grit his teeth in the back.

The Great Elder looked at Lin Dong, and a cold color flashed in his eyes, but this coldness was fleeting, and ordinary people couldn't see it at all.

He was still expressionless as usual: "The three-year covenant requires you to reach the third order within three years before you are eligible to inherit the position of the patriarch, can you achieve it?"

"Is it the third order, can't you know if you test it?" Lin Dong's gaze was always fixed on the Great Elder.

The Great Elder also kept staring at Lin Dong: "Someone, bring out the force measuring instrument." ”

Immediately, there were two members of the Lin family, and they carried out a force measuring instrument more than one person high.

Underneath the appliance is a force capsule, and above it is a power scale. When you hit the pressure capsule, the pointer on it will point to the corresponding scale.

Generally speaking, a first-order martial artist has 250 jin of strength, a second-order is 500 jin, and a third-order is 1,000 jin.

Lin Dong came to the force measuring instrument without any nervousness.

The pedestrians on both sides of the street secretly laughed to themselves at this time: "This waste young master really wants to measure the force?"

"It is said that once when he was measuring his strength, he was bounced away by the force bag, and he fell into a dog and ate, which was embarrassing and embarrassing. Do you want to recreate that scene now?"

"This time we have a good eye. ”

"Alas, if Lin Zhan knew that his son was so cowardly, I am afraid that he would die without turning a blind eye. ”

......

Those people in the Lin family looked at Lin Dong, and the corners of their mouths also showed disdain.

Lin Tao even smiled secretly: "Waste firewood, you are a first-order martial artist, you are lucky to be able to hit 250 catties." 1000 pounds, dream. ”

As the first day of the Lin family, he naturally looked down on Lin Dong in every way.

Although the elders did not show it on their faces like the young people, each of them had the same thoughts as Lin Tao.

As long as this waste is punched down, it's time for him to get out. Without 1,000 catties, he would never want to step into the Lin family again in his life.

Lin Dong naturally knew what these people were thinking, he just sneered at the corner of his mouth.

Glancing back at the street, Director Yi was not seen. He shook his head secretly, could it be that Director Yi missed the appointment?

But now that there are so many passers-by to testify, they are not afraid of these elders playing tricks.

He turned his head back and stared at the Great Elder.

The Great Elder also stared at Lin Dong.

The four eyes are facing each other, and there is no concession.

Suddenly, Lin Dong made a move.

His eyes were still fixed on the Great Elder, but his right fist suddenly struck out, right in the center of the force capsule.

Bang -

There was a muffled sound, and the needle flicked up, shook twice, and finally stopped.

At this moment, there was silence on the street, only the sound of the spring breeze sweeping through the street.

Everyone's pupils shrank sharply, and their hearts pounded.

Those pedestrians who were taunting Lin Dong stopped abruptly with the mocking words in their mouths, as if they were choked by invisible big hands. Their eyes widened as if they had seen the most incredible thing.

"1135 pounds!"

"Three...... Third-Order Martial Artist!"

"How is that possible?"

"He actually ...... It's really at the third order!"

On the Lin family's side, the mocking smiles on everyone's faces also froze on their faces, and their eyes were full of disbelief.

The younger generation of the Lin family were all dumbfounded.

Who would have thought that Lin Xiaodong, who had always been regarded as a waste, would be promoted to two orders in a row and become a third-order martial artist in half a year. This speed is even more terrifying than Lin Tao on the first day of the Lin family. You must know that Lin Tao went from the first order to the third order, and it took three years.

Although several elders of the Lin family were still calm on the surface, their hearts had already turned upside down: he had really reached the third order, this was too nonsense, right?

Everyone thought that Lin Dong was a waste and destined to lose the position of patriarch.

But he didn't expect that all of a sudden, Lin Dong had jumped from a first-order waste to a third-order martial artist. Such a drastic change is unacceptable.

In addition to being surprised, several elders frowned slightly.

I thought that it would be impossible for Lin Xiaodong to complete the three-year contract, but as soon as it was over today, they could re-elect the heir. Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaodong suddenly came back, and he really rose to the third order.

Lin Tao was like everyone else at this time, his smile was frozen on his face, and his eyes were wide open.

He never dreamed that this waste would really cultivate to the third order within half a year to snatch his position as the patriarch.

Thinking of this, Lin Tao's fists clenched and gurgled.

He will not allow anyone to steal his patriarch's position!

"Maybe there's something wrong with the dynamometer!" Lin Tao's younger brother Lin Yu said suddenly.

"Yes, maybe it's a force measurement ......," Lin Tao reminded him and said.

"Shut up!" the Great Elder shouted coldly.

A little anger appeared on his expressionless face, glaring at Lin Tao and Lin Yu, his eyes full of hatred for iron and steel. can come up with such a mentally retarded excuse, his two sons are really a pair of wretched.

Then the Great Elder looked at Lin Dong again, and for the first time there was a solemn look in his eyes.

Before, he had always thought that Lin Xiaodong was not worth his careful handling at all. But now he found out that this kid is not simple.

Especially when Lin Xiaodong punched, his eyes were still staring at himself, obviously provoking himself.

......

The hot summer breeze blows through the streets, but it brings out the coldness of the autumn wind.

"Great Elder, what do you say now?" Lin Dong's words were colder than the autumn wind.

The Great Elder's lips were slightly dry, and he spoke, "Very good...... Within three years, you have risen to the third order. Possessed the qualifications to become a patriarch. But this is only the first level to become the head of the Lin family. If you want to become the head of the Lin family, you must go through two levels. Only by completing all three levels can you truly become the patriarch of the Lin family. ”

The pedestrians on the side of the street finally recovered from their astonishment, and when they heard the words of the Great Elder, they began to talk again.

"What's going on? Didn't you say that you can become a patriarch if you reach the third rank?"

"I've never heard of two levels to pass before. ”

"I don't know, maybe they added it temporarily. ”

The Great Elder was strong, so he naturally took the words of these people into his ears, and couldn't help but blush slightly.

In fact, the previous agreement did not have these two levels at all. However, he couldn't let Lin Dong easily become the head of the Lin family, so he came up with this trick, he must lock Lin Dong out of the Lin family. Only in this way can his son Lin Tao inherit the position of patriarch.

Lin Dong heard the words of the Great Patriarch, and although he was angry in his heart, he did not speak.

This situation had been expected by him.

At first, the three-year agreement was only a verbal agreement, not a written word. Now that Lin Zhan is dead, only the Great Elder is left, he can say whatever he wants, and he has no choice.

It was precisely because of this situation that Lin Dong retained his strength and did not reveal the strength of the fourth order.

He had to leave enough hole cards to deal with all kinds of difficulties of the Great Elder, and finally let the Great Elder have nothing to say!
