"You can't blame this on the Lin Family. This was the Beast Tamer Guild's decision. If you have complaints, go ask the Guild."
"Don't act like your Lin Family is innocent. Without the Lin Family's approval, would the Guild dare do this?"
"What wouldn't they dare? Don't forget the Beast Tamer Guild answers to the central guild. Do you, Ye Lingtian, really think the central guild fears your Ye Family?"
"You…"
Ye Lingtian was left speechless.
Lin Yuan continued, "Besides, the Guild did nothing wrong. They merely announced a fact."
"Nonsense!"
Ye Lingtian cursed furiously.
"Don't get mad, I'm just stating facts. In fact, the Guild helped your Ye Family."
"Nonsense!"
Ye Lingtian's face flushed red with anger.
"See? You don't believe me? Then let me explain."
Lin Yuan chuckled, "Your Ye Family's Ye Heng was ruined, that's a fact. Though hard to accept, you must accept it, right?"
"But the world doesn't know. They only know Ye Heng awakened a Legendary Talent and has great Spiritual Power."
"People expect that someone with a Legendary Talent and strong Spiritual Power will rise. But with Ye Heng's current state, rising is impossible. So what will the world think?"
"They will believe Ye Heng never awakened the Legendary Talent—that it was someone else."
"And your Ye Family falsely claimed Ye Heng awakened it, to save face. Doesn't that make you look even worse?"
Hearing Lin Yuan, Ye Lingtian, Ye Hong, and the six Great Elders were stunned.
Maybe he was right?
But then they realized, even so, the Lin Family hadn't really helped them.
They'd just embarrassed themselves over Ye Heng.
Lin Yuan's words calmed their anger somewhat.
The urge to fight faded.
"Lin Yuan, don't get cocky. Though the Lin Family awakened three Mythical Talents, Lin Luo was reckless enough to contract a Black Iron Intermediate Spirit Beast and ruin his future. The other two aren't Lin Family heirs—would you dare train them?"
"Who wins in the end between our families? It's too early to say."
Ye Lingtian took a deep breath and said coldly.
Lin Yuan smiled, "If that makes you happy, think that way—I don't mind."
"You…"
Lin Yuan's stance angered Ye Lingtian further.
Then Ye Lingtian had Thunderwing Tiger carry them away.
He feared Lin Yuan would anger him to death if he stayed.
Thus, the Lin Family sent off the Ye Family without spending a speck of Spiritual Power—just Lin Yuan's words.
"Father, you're amazing—just like that, they left?"
Lin Zhen said admiringly, watching Lin Yuan descend from the sky.
"Left? Why does it feel like the Ye Family came begging?"
Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing.
Lin Zhen, Ye Qingrou, and the six Great Elders also laughed.
…
"The Ye Family just left like that?"
Gu Jingya said surprised.
"What else?"
Lin Luo asked.
"When they came, they were so aggressive, I thought a fight was coming."
Gu Jingya said.
"Fighting the Ye Family gains nothing. But to leave without a fight was surprising."
Lin Luo said.
Gu Jingya nodded in agreement.
…
Soon, Thunderwing Tiger carried Ye Lingtian, Ye Hong, and the six Great Elders back to Ye Mansion.
Liu Wanyi and Ye Heng hurried to ask about the situation.
No one answered.
Ye Lingtian swept his sleeves and left.
The six Great Elders quickly dispersed.
Only Ye Hong remained.
"Husband, what happened?"
"Father, did you kill Lin Luo?"
Liu Wanyi and Ye Heng anxiously asked.
Ye Hong shook his head and explained.
Liu Wanyi and Ye Heng found it hard to accept.
That night, Ye Lingtian sent for Ye Hong.
"Father, you called me?"
Ye Hong arrived at Ye Lingtian's study.
Ye Lingtian said directly, "Tomorrow, spread the news that Lin Luo contracted a Black Iron Intermediate Spirit Beast, showing the genius is ruined."
"This way, no one will easily side with the Lin Family. People will know Ye Heng wasn't weak but ruined because Lin Luo recklessly contracted a Black Iron Intermediate Spirit Beast and missed a growth chance."
Ye Hong's eyes brightened, "Yes, why didn't we think of that before? You're truly brilliant."
"Lin Yuan thought our Ye Family couldn't touch the Lin Family. He underestimated me," Ye Lingtian snorted coldly.
