Ultimate Supreme Soldier King

Chapter 1473 1468: Turmoil in the Lin Family [Fifth Update]

But so what?Someone in the family knows their own affairs. How could Lin Hanshu's level confidently sit securely in the Lin family's leading chair?

"My father was fine when he went out with you earlier, what did you do to him?!" Lin Hanshu kept railing against Su Chen.

However, Su Chen didn't care.

He quietly placed Old Master Lin on the Taishi Chair and softly said, "The old master now needs to rest calmly. His health condition was really poor before; now it's likely very hard for him to speak or get up and move around."

This statement from Su Chen nearly pronounced a person's death sentence!

"What?!"

For Lin Hanshu, this was akin to a bolt from the blue. Without Old Master Lin, can it even be considered the Lin family?

Even though Lin Hanshu now becomes the temporary leader of the Lin family, he understands that without Old Master Lin supporting him, there's no way he could so easily handle such a large array of Lin family business operations.

But he's merely managing the overall situation from behind the scenes; he's not the one actually doing the specific tasks.

Suddenly, Lin Hanshu felt a bit regretful; if he hadn't insisted on bringing Lin Xi and Su Chen back to the manor, perhaps this situation wouldn't have occurred?

What frustrates Lin Hanshu the most is that he seems incapable of doing anything to Su Chen.

"Out of respect for Lin Xi, I can still call you Uncle. Without that, what do you count for in front of me? Don't point your finger at me, otherwise, I can't guarantee when it might break," Su Chen said to Lin Hanshu without holding back.

Lin Hanshu's face turned bright red from Su Chen's words, clearly showing he was not given any consideration.

But what can he do? He can only endure for now.

"I've brought Old Master Lin back for you. Later, you can find a hospital or experts to treat him. If Old Master Lin's character is somewhat good, there might still be a chance... um, if not, he might become a disabled person lying in bed for life."

The special power carried by 'Blood Blade' was something Su Chen couldn't break; hence, he temporarily couldn't wake Old Master Lin up.

Deep down, he did want to awaken Old Master Lin; for the secrets the old man hadn't fully revealed about his sister-in-law and Dragon Blade, and its relation to the Lin family, he was eager to know. But now, Old Master Lin was in such a state, unable to disclose any more.

However, 'Blood Blade' has been put away by him. He plans to let Gu Niwei'er take it to her good friend Wendi to see if a solution could be found later. If a solution is found, that would be perfect; if not, alternatives could be considered.

"What did you do to Old Master?" The elder, who had remained silent and consistently portrayed the role of a housekeeper, saw Old Master Lin sitting lifelessly on the Taishi Chair like a waste—all his aura changed entirely.

His eyes flashed a dangerous glint, showing the Holy Realm aura and majesty unreservedly.

Su Chen didn't know exactly how much depth the Lin family had, but he saw very little so far. However, from Old Master Lin's and the old housekeeper's cultivation levels, it wasn't hard to see that the Lin family was far from being as simple as it seemed on the surface.

"The old master was ambushed, but fortunately not fatally harmed; though due to some special reasons, he can't awake now, but I'll figure something out." Su Chen admitted openly.

He honestly didn't deceive the old housekeeper and Lin Hanshu, he genuinely wanted to find a way to wake Old Master Lin up.

Because he was desperate to access the intelligence held by Old Master Lin. If the old man didn't wake up, he wouldn't be able to learn the truth of the matter anytime soon—perhaps not fully the truth.

But at least he could glimpse a bit of his sister-in-law's past life and image.

Additionally, he felt extremely curious about the existence of 'Dragon Blade'. Dragon Blade was hailed as the most potent weapon of 'Reverse Dragon', yet since he entered 'Reverse Dragon', Dragon Blade had ceased to exist.

Despite his years of striving towards the Dragon Blade realm, according to his sister-in-law, he never reached the level of Dragon Blade.

Su Chen was single-minded; he worked hard learning, training, fighting fiercely—for one reason, to become a man like Dragon Blade, gaining his sister-in-law's acknowledgment.

But in her eyes, seemingly, there was only Dragon Blade, as if no matter how hard he tried, it was never enough.

"Did you injure the old master?" The elder housekeeper stared firmly at Su Chen, asking bluntly.

Su Chen didn't hide: "Yes, the old master was injured by me. If it wasn't because of getting injured by me, he wouldn't so easily be ambushed."

If Old Master Lin hadn't been hurt exchanging blows with Su Chen, his reaction wouldn't have been slowed down, thus making 'Blood Blade's' piercing a thorough impaling wound.

'Blood Blade' stabbed straight into the chest cavity. For another person, they'd be dead now—not like the current state, merely in a coma, briefly unable to wake up.

Yet, realistically, given the current situation, the probability of waking up wasn't very high either.

After hearing such a decisive answer from Su Chen, the old housekeeper immediately attacked him without courtesy.

To him, regardless of Su Chen being careless or otherwise, all he knew was, the sole reason for the old master's current state was Su Chen, injured by Su Chen.

Though elderly, the housekeeper's cultivation realm was below Old Master Lin's, Holy Realm Martial Artists could never be underestimated lightly.

Even a martial artist with basic Saint realm cultivation, erupting suddenly, the power was terrifying.

Su Chen was directly struck by the old housekeeper's palm.

Already injured, this blow from the housekeeper hit Su Chen solidly, without having activated Golden Body, causing Su Chen to spit blood right there.

"Why didn't you dodge?" The old housekeeper didn't continue attacking, but slightly stared at Su Chen with surprise, questioning.

"Dodging, then injuring you seriously? What's the point?" Su Chen replied coolly.

"I didn't want to see Old Master Lin become like this either; I'll swiftly work out a way to wake him up. But meanwhile, I need to leave here. Lin Xi... I hope your Lin family won't press her anymore; if there's anything you want, just talk directly to me." Su Chen spoke purposefully to Lin Hanshu.

"As for Lin family's fifteen percent share in Yimena, it can temporarily be retained, but I hope eventually it can be given to Lin Xi. Yimena embodies Lin Xi's hard work, and I don't want too many parasites sucking blood out of Yimena."

"Alright." The old housekeeper agreed directly without seeking Lin Hanshu's opinion, confirming his status in the Lin family, even higher than Lin Hanshu, the prospective leader.
