Fighting on behalf of the father

"Hmm?"

"For your father?"

The clan leader Lin Lang was a little surprised. His old face turned around and stared at Lin Zheng not far away.

For a moment, the whole place was silent. Only the dull atmosphere was constantly rising and falling, and the sound of breathing rose and fell, echoing one after another.

"That's right."

Facing Lin Lang's surprised eyes, Lin Zheng nodded heavily and said calmly.

"It's for my father."

"Lin Tianhu."

As a genius in Linjia Town, Lin Zheng was also highly valued, but after a year of disappearance and the sudden rise of Lin Kan.

In Linjia Town, Lin Zheng gradually lost his former status.

Lin Lang kept staring at the young man in front of him, motionless. The atmosphere in the hall seemed to be in a state of stiffness, and the air seemed to be solidified because of this.

"Your father..." After a long silence, Lin Lang suddenly spoke, but soon he stopped, as if he was hesitant, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything. "My father was attacked by a monster and was seriously injured." Seeing that Lin Lang was hesitant, as if he was a little taboo, Lin Zheng nodded and said. "Hey...!" At this time, Lin Lang couldn't help but sighed deeply. How could he not understand Lin Tianhu's position at the moment? However, even as the patriarch, it was not something that could be changed overnight. Moreover, Lin Zheng had disappeared for a year, and as a concubine, Lin Tianhu's status in Linjia Town would naturally not be high. "I understand!" Lin Zheng nodded slightly, as if he was somewhat sympathetic to Lin Lang's difficulties. "I'm not here for anything else."

"Two months later, in the family competition, I hope I can replace my father!"

After Lin Zheng finished speaking, the whole place was silent. Lin Lang stood there and looked up in disbelief.

"You?"

"Come to fight for your father?"

Lin Lang asked in doubt, and his tone was a little surprised after hearing this.

He naturally didn't expect that Lin Zheng would say such a thing at this moment.

"Yeah!"

"He is seriously injured in bed. I'm afraid he will..."

"...Therefore, in the competition two months later, I will take over."

"Is it feasible?"

Lin Zheng said calmly without changing his expression.

For a moment, Lin Lang was also stunned, his eyes were fixed on the young man in front of him, but he couldn't figure it out in his heart.

For the first time, Lin Lang, as the clan leader, couldn't see this young man clearly.

"Lin Zheng, I must tell you something."

"Not all participants in the family competition are as young as you."

"Among them, the masters in the family, such as Lin Jinglei, Lin Ding, and other strong men in the body refining realm, or masters, will also participate."

Lin Lang said, and his words were naturally full of some worry.

The young man in front of him was only seventeen years old, and coupled with the strength he had suffered in the past year, he was also a little worried.

"I know!"

Lin Zheng nodded, obviously knowing the difficulty.

"But my father is seriously ill in bed."

"I have to fight!"

Lin Zheng's tone was low, and his fists were clenched when he spoke. His eyes were extremely calm, without a trace of fear.

I have to fight!

The last four words, like thunder, echoed rapidly in the hall, and then quickly echoed out. "Okay!"

Lin Lang was moved by what he said, and he could not help but let out a low roar and responded loudly.

"In that case, I'll allow you!"

"But you have to be careful yourself."

Looking at the young boy in front of him, Lin Lang's tone was also a little worried, and he said softly.

"I will!"

Lin Zheng nodded silently and said in a low voice.

The whole hall was silent, without a sound.

Lin Zheng stayed there for a while, and then he bowed and retreated without stopping.

...

Just when Lin Zheng left the Lin Family Ancestral Hall, a beautiful figure walked out from a certain side and entered the meeting hall.

"Grandpa Lin."

Xiao Ling'er said with a little joy in her beautiful eyes, and said playfully.

"Ling'er, why are you here?"

"I haven't seen you for more than a year!"

Lin Lang turned his head and looked at a figure in white gauze not far away, as graceful as a banished immortal. A trace of kindness appeared on his wrinkled face, and he couldn't help but speak.

"Grandpa Lin is still so young."

"Hehe."

Xiao Ling'er said in a voice like the sound of a piano, full of ease in her words, and a silver bell-like sound came out of her mouth.

"Okay, little girl, I don't know you yet?"

"Are you worried about that kid?"

Hearing the silver bell-like laughter, Lin Lang's face also showed a smile, and soon his tone changed, and he smiled and spoke.

"Yeah!"

Xiao Ling'er nodded slightly, and her worry was revealed.

"Hahaha."

"I really don't know where this kid got his blessing."

Hearing this, Lin Lang's old face was full of smiles, and he couldn't help laughing out loud. "Don't worry, this kid is very confident."

"He doesn't need to worry."

"This time, it's also an opportunity for him."

Lin Lang muttered to himself, but a smile gradually appeared on his face. He stared at the magnificent gate and said with a hint of joy.

"Maybe, he can make a big splash."

"I'm really looking forward to his performance."

Hearing this, Xiao Ling'er also showed a faint smile on her face, and a touch of joy appeared on her pretty face, and then quickly spread.

...

Back to the low house, mother Liu Xinlan was still busy for a long time, while father Lin Tianhu fell asleep.

"Huh..."

Lin Zheng looked not far away, and couldn't help but let out a long breath, and his expression became more relaxed than ever before.

Then he strode out and walked into the house.

"Zheng'er!"

After hearing Lin Zheng's voice, mother Liu Xinlan suddenly turned her head and said.

Lin Zheng walked in carefully, made a gesture to silence, and walked forward slowly.

"Next, Dad's injury just needs to be healed."

"Leave the rest to me!"

Lin Zheng came to the bed and stood still, looking at Lin Tianhu lying there, his expression moved, and he couldn't help but whispered.

"But Zheng'er..."

Liu Xinlan was still a little worried, and said in surprise.

"Mom." Lin Zheng continued to say, "The child has grown up."

"Leave some things to me!"

Lin Zheng said calmly, his tone was calm, sounding plain, without any emotional fluctuations.

"Zheng..." Liu Xinlan wanted to speak, but when her eyes met and looked at Lin Zheng's firm eyes, she couldn't help but move in her heart and subconsciously stopped there.

"Don't force anything."

"Do your best."

At this moment, Liu Xinlan also felt that Lin Zheng in front of her seemed to have changed in this moment.

"I will."

Lin Zheng nodded slightly and spoke slowly.

"I will pay attention to it myself."

Looking at the surrounding environment, the wrinkled face of his mother Liu Xinlan, and the figure of his father lying in bed, Lin Zheng clenched his hands unconsciously.

The first thing to do now is to improve his strength, pass the assessment of the intermediate department, and also to speed up in alchemy.

Although he is still young at the age of seventeen, his parents can't wait.

"Mom, I'm going back to the academy first."

"Come back in a few days."

Looking at Lin Tianhu lying there and Liu Xinlan beside him, Lin Zheng hesitated for a moment and spoke.

Liu Xinlan nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and hurriedly urged Lin Zheng to go back.

After all, it is most important for Lin Zheng to practice in the academy now. We can't afford to waste this time.

"Be careful when you're alone there."

"Anything, be patient if you can. It's okay to suffer a little loss."

"Don't get into conflict with others."

Liu Xinlan repeatedly warned, and Lin Zheng nodded repeatedly.

"Be patient if you can?"

"Now, it's not a year ago."

"Besides, they won't let me go so easily."

Lin Zheng knew in his heart that whether it was Lin Zhong, Lin Kan, or other Lin's children in Nanshan College, they didn't plan to let him go so easily.

After all, with his return, he had attracted the attention of some people and affected the interests of some people.

As a bastard, it's not so easy to live in Nanshan College where all the children are direct descendants.

"I will!"

In an instant, a hundred thoughts came to his mind, but they were quickly thrown out of his mind. With a faint smile on his face, he spoke.

Then, Lin Zheng slowly stepped out and soon left the house. Facing the two people in the house, Lin Zheng subconsciously clenched his palms and swore in his heart.

…

Coming out of Linjia Town, Lin Zheng and Xiao Ling'er moved very fast, passing through the wide road like lightning, bringing up waves of air and making buzzing sounds that kept echoing in their ears.

Along the way, both of them were silent, as if they were trapped in a silence. Lin Zheng breathed smoothly and just moved quickly, while Xiao Ling'er looked peaceful and did not speak.

When approaching Nanshan City, Lin Zheng, who had been silent all the way, suddenly said:

"Ling'er."

"This time, you must pass the assessment of the intermediate department."

"I can't wait now."

Lin Zheng seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be asking.

"Yes."

"I believe in you, Brother Lin Zheng."

"You can do it."

Xiao Ling'er nodded and said firmly.

At this moment, she fully supported Lin Zheng.

"Shua!"

"Shua——"

Two figures, one black and one white, flashed quickly on the street, bringing a gust of fierce wind, which then spread to the surroundings, making a sharp sound of breaking wind.

On the streets of Nanshan City, pedestrians only felt a gust of wind passing by, and when they could see clearly, they only glimpsed two vague shadows a few feet away, and then they completely disappeared.

The two were so fast that they had passed through Nanshan City and entered Nanshan College in just a quarter of an hour.
