Chapter 2076

Lan Tianyu murmured, "Not many, just twenty-seven. It's boring, really boring. They died as soon as I played with them. It's so boring."

Lin Moyu frowned deeply. "Does the Lan Family not care?"

Lan Tianyu laughed out loud. "They want to care, but how can they? Kill this young master?"

"Besides, this young master didn't do it openly. This young master just said that I recommended them to cultivate in other sects."

"Their families were too busy thanking this young master, so why would they care?"

Beside them, Uncle Le's eyes widened. He wanted to stop it, but he couldn't.

Lin Moyu's gaze was ice-cold. "According to your family rules, how should someone like you be punished?"

Lan Tianyu sneered. "If it were anyone else, they would naturally be killed. But I am of the direct line! At most, I'll just be put in confinement!"

Lin Moyu became increasingly calm. "So these are the rules of the Lan Family. They are indeed quite nice!"

These words made Uncle Dong shudder. Although the tone was calm, it was filled with killing intent.

Lin Moyu said softly, "I'm not very satisfied with the Lan Family's rules. Since that's the case, we won't play by the Lan Family's rules."

As he spoke, he glanced at Uncle Le, whose heart was filled with terror.

In the next second, Ke Jun's power erupted. Uncle Le let out a muffled groan as his soul was annihilated, and he died on the spot.

Facing a Mid-stage Heavenly Venerate, Uncle Le, who was only a Low-level Sovereign, had absolutely no ability to resist.

Then, Lin Moyu flicked a ball of flame, turning Uncle Le into a man of fire.

Spell: Resurrection of the Dead!

Uncle Le, who had just died, turned into a Revenant within the flames.

Lin Moyu followed suit, killing Lan Tianyu and turning him into a Revenant as well.

Lin Moyu turned and left, erasing all traces of his existence at the same time. Even the time imprint was wiped away; even if someone used Time Reversal, they wouldn't be able to trace it back to the source.

Lin Moyu returned to his rented courtyard and brewed a pot of good tea for himself. "The good show is about to begin!"

A few seconds later, a deafening explosion erupted from the southeastern corner of Linhai City.

Uncle Le flew into the sky with Lan Tianyu, arriving above the City Lord's Mansion like lightning.

Uncle Le unleashed his full aura, immediately drawing the attention of countless people.

The two of them stood beneath the massive Moon Origin, looking extremely conspicuous.

In Linhai City, someone immediately recognized Lan Tianyu's identity.

As a young master of the Lan Family's direct line, quite a few people knew him.

Many were extremely surprised, watching Lan Tianyu, wondering what he was trying to do.

Lan Tianyu suddenly laughed out loud. "I, Lan Tianyu, have toyed with twenty sixteen-year-old girls over the past thirty years. The first one was named…"

Lan Tianyu spoke of his crimes, one by one.

He used all his strength, and his voice was so loud that it resounded throughout Linhai City.

The entire Linhai City was in an uproar, and everyone was shocked beyond measure.

Although ordinary people had low status, every faction had rules that forbade easily harming them.

While killing one might not be a big deal, what Lan Tianyu did was despised by everyone.

If no one knew about such things, they could get away with it.

But once it was spoken aloud, Lan Tianyu would surely be punished, and the Lan Family's reputation would also suffer.

To be the lord of a city, the Lan Family needed not only strength but also a reputation.

Everyone knew that Lan Tianyu was finished.

"Shut up!"

With an angry roar, a Heavenly Venerate from the Lan Family took action, wanting to stop Lan Tianyu.

Uncle Le also made a move, actively meeting the opponent and shielding Lan Tianyu with his body.

Chapter 2502: Compensation, You Have No Chance!

With a deafening boom, the Lan Family's Heavenly Venerate who had attacked was forced back.

Uncle Le shielded Lan Tianyu with his body and was instantly killed. As a Revenant, he would self-detonate upon death.

The power of the self-detonation was even stronger than when he was alive, and it actually blocked the Heavenly Venerate.

In the eyes of others, Uncle Le, a Sovereign, was sacrificing himself through self-detonation just to let Lan Tianyu continue listing his crimes.

A giant formation appeared in the sky, confining the power of Uncle Le's self-detonation within a certain range.

At the same time, a grand formation also emerged on the ground of Linhai City, blocking the shockwave of Uncle Le's self-detonation.

Otherwise, the power of a Sovereign's self-detonation would be enough to destroy more than half of Linhai City.

Uncle Le's self-detonation bought Lan Tianyu a little more time.

Ignoring everything, Lan Tianyu continued to detail his crimes. Another roar came from the City Lord's Mansion, "I told you to shut up!"

Another Heavenly Venerate rushed toward Lan Tianyu, but a Heavenly Venerate suddenly appeared beside him—a High-level Heavenly Venerable.

Cheng Hongguang appeared beside Lan Tianyu. Pressing down with a palm, his immense power slapped the Lan Family's Heavenly Venerate back.

Eight people rose into the air from the Lan Family. The head of the Lan Family, Lan Qingzheng, was among them, and the other seven were also Heavenly Venerates of the Lan Family.

As the strongest member of the Lan Family, Lan Qingzheng possessed the combat strength of a Peak Heavenly Venerate, making him stronger than Cheng Hongguang when the latter was alive.

However, since Cheng Hongguang was now a Revenant, his strength exceeded that of his lifetime, which was enough to delay Lan Qingzheng for a while.

If he died in battle, he could also self-detonate, perhaps even dragging Lan Qingzheng down with him.

Lan Qingzheng said in a deep voice, "Why does Your Excellency stop my Lan Family?"

Cheng Hongguang was expressionless. "Let him finish!"

Lan Qingzheng's face darkened. "This is an internal matter of my Lan Family!"

Cheng Hongguang snorted coldly. "It is no longer an internal matter now. Besides, I am not the only one who wants to listen. I believe the fellow Daoists in Linhai City would also like to hear it!"

As soon as his voice fell, echoing voices immediately rang out in Linhai City.

"Of course we want to hear it!"

"A young master of the Lan Family actually did so many interesting things. Of course we must listen closely!"

"Is the Lan Family daring to do it but not daring to admit it?"

"I remember the Hanshui Holy Land has an order: unless there is a special reason, one must not humiliate ordinary people, let alone commit acts of depravity."

"Linhai City is also under the jurisdiction of the Hanshui Holy Land. I wonder what will happen once this gets out."

"This matter has blown up. It can't be covered up. Someone from the Hanshui Holy Land will probably come."

"What are you thinking? What is Linhai City that the Hanshui Holy Land would send someone? At most, someone from the Seven-Colored Sect will come. In fact, the Seven-Colored Sect might not even move. If just any top three-star sect takes action, the Lan Family won't be able to withstand it!"

"That also depends on how the Lan Family responds. If they handle the punishment properly, it might be fine."

The owners of these voices were all Heavenly Venerates. They were not afraid of the Lan Family, and their auras surged into the sky one after another, as if backing Cheng Hongguang.

Lan Qingzheng's face was already extremely unsightly. He did not know Cheng Hongguang's background. A High-level Heavenly Venerable suddenly appearing out of nowhere had already pushed things to an irreversible point.

He trembled with rage. As the head of the Lan Family, he naturally knew that Lan Tianyu had done many wrong things over the years.

But Lan Tianyu was his direct descendant, so he had turned a blind eye to some of those things.

But he never expected that Lan Tianyu would lose his mind and actually speak of these things.

He suddenly noticed that Lan Tianyu's eyes were somewhat off, not showing a normal expression.

In an instant, his mind raced. "Someone is targeting my Lan Family!"

"Who is it? Who wants to target my Lan Family?"

"Is it the Feng Family or the Mu Family?"

He quickly searched his mind. The Lan Family naturally had enemies, and quite a few of them.

Everyone he thought of was a possibility.

Thinking about this was useless. The current situation was right before him; how should he deal with Lan Tianyu?

Listening to everyone's discussions, Lin Moyu gained a better understanding of the layout of the Origin Continent.

Above Linhai City was the Seven-Colored Sect.

Under the Seven-Colored Sect, there were seven lineage sects, colored red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple.

He had dealt with a Dao Venerate from the Seven-Colored Sect named Wei Xin, who had given him a jade token that served as both a life-saving amulet and a death warrant.

Any of the lineage sects under the Seven-Colored Sect was stronger than the Lan Family of Linhai City.

Lin Moyu did not know how many stars the Seven-Colored Sect's power rating was, but it was at least four stars, possibly five.

Above the Seven-Colored Sect, there was also the Hanshui Holy Land.

The Hanshui Holy Land was the true boss of this region, the undisputed ruler.

In the entire Origin Continent, there were only four Holy Lands, and the Hanshui Holy Land was one of them.

As the ruler, the Hanshui Holy Land had naturally laid down rules, among which committing acts of depravity was a major crime that carried severe punishment.

If the Hanshui Holy Land did not know, that would be one thing, but once they found out, they would definitely not let it slide.

Previously, he had wanted to see how the Lan Family would react, but now there was no need. As long as the Lan Family were not fools, Lan Tianyu was dead.

Although he was already dead, it did not stop him from dying once more.

Lan Tianyu finally finished listing all his crimes, and lastly, he mentioned Xiao Yue.

When he spoke of how he used malicious means to control a young girl to prevent her from growing up, keeping her looking ten years old forever for his own amusement…

The entire Linhai City erupted.

This was no longer a matter of severe punishment; this was unpardonable!

"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable. A descendant of the Lan Family could actually be so insanely depraved!"

"Raising her since she was ten, keeping her until she was sixteen for his amusement, and she was an orphan!"

"With this kind of disposition, the higher his cultivation, the more of a great demon he will become!"

"This person's disposition is even more terrifying than the Yao Race. He cannot be allowed to live."

"I think everyone in the Lan Family should be thoroughly investigated. If there's a first, there might be a second."

"Indeed, they must be thoroughly investigated!"

The waves of discussion kept entering Lan Qingzheng's ears. If Cheng Hongguang had not blocked him, Lan Qingzheng would have already torn Lan Tianyu to shreds.

What he had done was now a matter of life and death for the Lan Family.

Once Lan Tianyu finished speaking about Xiao Yue, Cheng Hongguang said, "Alright, everything that should be heard has been heard. Next, we shall see how Family Head Lan handles this."

Lan Qingzheng looked at Cheng Hongguang with a complex gaze. "Who on earth sent you?"

Cheng Hongguang laughed out loud. "Family Head Lan, you had better mind your own family's business and stop worrying about outside matters!"

As he spoke, his figure vanished, disappearing without a trace right before Lan Qingzheng's eyes.

Lan Qingzheng's face stiffened. Cheng Hongguang's sudden disappearance gave him quite a shock.

He actually could not see how Cheng Hongguang had left, which made him even more certain that there must be someone behind Cheng Hongguang.

But so what? The problem currently before him was how to handle Lan Tianyu.

Originally, he wanted to simply kill him to give an account.

But after Lan Tianyu spoke of the matter regarding Xiao Yue, he knew he couldn't just kill him.

The nature of this matter was thousands of times worse than before. He knew that the Hanshui Holy Land would definitely send someone to thoroughly investigate this matter, as well as the Lan Family.

If this matter was not clearly investigated, he would not be able to give an account.

Lan Tianyu could not be killed; instead, he had to be handed over to the Hanshui Holy Land.

And the best course of action was for him to actively report it to the Hanshui Holy Land himself, rather than waiting for them to find out.
