Monarch Of Time

Chapter 10 - 10 The shameless Lin family

Shun Longʼs feet just touched the main hall and as the big 3m(9ft) doors opened, all eyes inside suddenly turned in his direction.

As soon as Shun Long entered the hall apart from his parents sitting at the main seats, he also noticed 3 elders of the Lin family and a middle-aged man all dressed in black clothes with blue stripes on their c.h.e.s.ts and sleeves sitting inside, along with a young and relatively pretty girl who was with them, with her back straight as she was seated on her chair, but unfortunately because of the ʼstraight postureʼ she had adopted, people would instantly notice her flat c.h.e.s.t.

Everything looked normal at first glance, but Shun Longʼs past life experience had allowed him to pick on even the most indiscernible of hints, and from their body language how they had seated themselves a fair distance away from Shun Fang and Shun An while being the only guests here, Shun Long understood that this matter had more to it than what meets the eye. After all the reason that Shun Long had survived alone for so long in his past life, was mostly because of his ability to judge peopleʼs intentions based on their slightest movements or gestures.

Shun Fang and Shun An looked at Shun Long with a gentle gaze, but deep inside, Shun Fangʼs eyes held a trace of horror.

ʼʼCould it be that there is actually a problem and thatʼs why Longʼer didnʼt leave his room for all these days?ʼʼ he asked himself, afraid of finding out the answer as that may send him directly, from the heaven he has been experiencing these days, to the deepest depths of hell.

It was only natural that Shun Fang hypothesized that there was a problem with Shun Longʼs cultivation and that he hadnʼt yet entered even the 1st rank of qi circulation, otherwise how could his body possibly not emit any aura, if he had already reached it?!

Even if Shun Long had intended to conceal his aura, Shun Fang assumed that as a peak rank 9 earth level cultivator he would have seen through it, and since he didnʼt feel anything now that Shun Long had entered the main hall, he naturally felt that his son must have met a problem.

Deep inside him, all these days he and Shun An were patiently waiting, hoping for their son to enter at least the peak of rank 1 in qi circulation, if not the early rank 2, but what he saw now was different to what he expected and thatʼs why he had assumed that some problem must have occurred in Shun Longʼs cultivation session.

Shun Long had noticed the trace of shock that flashed inside his fatherʼs eyes but acted as if he didnʼt even notice anything and smiled at him as he asked

ʼʼFather did you ask for me?ʼʼ

ʼʼNephew Shun has indeed grown even more handsome since the last time we met, congratulations hahaha, in the future you will definitely have droves of beauties waiting for youʼʼ

The main hall instantly turned silent and even a pin drop could be now heard.

Shun Fangʼs face frowned and the look in his eyes darkened as he looked at the middle aged man from the Lin family who had just spoken, and with a voice that betrayed his anger he questioned him

ʼʼLin Shang what the f.u.c.k do you mean by that?ʼʼ

Shun Fang had instantly noticed the meaning in Lin Shangʼs words. Shun Long would finding some beauties but not someone that belonged in the Lin family.

Had these idiots come to ask him to annul the engagement?

Of course the pretty girl sitting beside Lin Shang was Shun Longʼs fiancee in name, and also Lin Shangʼs daughter, Lin Wu.

Lin Wu was already 15 years old, just one year younger than Shun Long, and as the daughter of the Lin patriarch she had already reached the rank 5 peak of qi circulation.

Lin Shang was slightly ashamed, but as he thought of his gem of a daughter being stuck in a patch of crippled crap that couldnʼt cultivate, along with some other matters that had recently popped up, he steeled his resolve and said as he stood up from his seat

ʼʼBrother Fang please listen to me, I know that Wuʼer has been engaged to Shun Long for many years and that Shun Long definitely expected to marry her but some matters have occurred so I could only shamelessly come and ask you to please call off the engagementʼʼ Lin Shang said and then continued in one breath

ʼʼActually Wuʼer has decided to take the entrance test of the ʼfloating cloud sectʼ that will take place 1 month from now in the palace of the imperial capital. The ʼfloating cloud sectʼ will send their elders to personally come and accept outer court disciples. Everyone knows that your son is crip..*cough* *cough* unable to cultivate due to his meridians, so it would be for the benefit of both of our children to call of the engagement donʼt you agree? After all they will be people of 2 different worlds, now that Wuʼer will enter the ʼfloating cloud sectʼ and while your son wonʼt be able to cultivate, my daughter will definitely end up leaving the ʼSky Fortune kingdomʼ this time.ʼʼ

ʼʼF.U.C.K OFF to the side and donʼt call me brother Fang!ʼ Shun Fang said furiously, his eyes having turned red from his fury, with veins bulging around his temples. His hair was flying behind him in the air as he unleashed his pressure and revealed his aura of a peak rank 9 earth level cultivator, suffocating everyone inside the hall as he laughed and said

ʼʼHAHAHA, you shamelessly come and beg me to call of the engagement? HAHAHAHA, you are right, you are truly shameless and your face is so thick that my hand would probably redden from slapping you. Did you think that my house is a place that your tiny Lin family can act as they please at?

- How many times did you come over the years, and by using your status as in-laws of my family did you SHAMELESSLY BEG ME to help create formations in your home so your familyʼs territory doesnʼt get annexed by high earth rank level experts?

-WHO was the person who begged me on his knees 6 years ago to have his daughter betrothed to my son?

And now you want to ʼshamelesslyʼ beg me to cancel their engagement instead of divorcing you so your daughterʼs reputation doesnʼt get tarnished? HAHAHAHA!ʼʼ

Shun Fang laughed furiously and mockingly as he looked at the head and the 3 elders of the Lin family, whose faces had all turned deep red and their fists were all tightly clenched underneath the table, unknown if it was shame or fury that they were feeling.

Shun Long then took a step forward towards the Lin family and Shun Fang instantly retracted his pressure allowing them to breathe, as Shun Long looked at the young girl and asked

ʼʼWhat do you think?ʼʼ

ʼʼAudacious. This is not a place for children to..ʼʼ

But before he could even finish his sentence, Shun Fangʼs aura burst out again and the elder that was only at the middle stages of the earth level was instantly swept off his feet from the pressure, and started coughing blood nonstop, as he dyed his clothes and beard red and his body flew in the air, crashing right at the center of the wall opposite to him, and the sound of bones cracking was heard as he crashed and then collapsed to the ground twitching.

ʼʼThis is not a place for you to speak so shut your mouthʼʼ Shun Fang said arrogantly as he looked down from his seat, his gaze stabbing directly at the members of the Lin family.

Shun Long then looked at his ʼfianceeʼ as he was expecting her to answer his previous question and although this flat c.h.e.s.ted girl didnʼt dare to look at Shun Fang, she was still bold enough to raise her eyes and meet Shun Longʼs.

Shun Long understood everything from her gaze that was screaming arrogance and pride, as well as ʼʼI am superior to you and hence I look down on youʼʼ.

Unknown where he had found the courage or the strength to speak from, Lin Shang opened his mouth that was already leaking blood from the corner of his lips, thanks to the unrelenting pressure that Shun Fang had put them under until he said ʼʼShun Long you should cons..ʼʼ

*pfft*

Lin Shang couldnʼt even finish his sentence before he ended up spurting a mouthful of blood, that coincidentally landed on his daughterʼs and dyed half her face a deep red colour.

Shun Long didnʼt even glance at him or his daughter, after he had noticed that contemptive gaze earlier in Lin Wuʼs eyes. He just turned around and shook his head as he walked towards the exit of the main hall and said in a heavily relieved tone as he patted his robes ʼʼThank god, for I almost ended up associating with a bunch of trashes this time. Father, destroy this engagement.. destroy it ʼcompletelyʼ. ʼʼ
