Lin Chen looked at Wu Jing, whose eyes carried a hint of sadness, and nodded.

All that had happened today was orchestrated by him, but Lin Chen could understand Wu Jing's feelings at this moment.

After all, the sudden return of a lost lover to Wu Jing's side would stir up her past pain.

Wu Jing leaned on Lin Chen and began to cry once more.

Lin Chen also felt somewhat heavy-hearted. After crying for a while, Wu Jing finally left his shoulder.

"Thank you, I will live well. No matter what happens, I will stay strong," Wu Jing said with a smile.

Lin Chen nodded, "That's the right attitude. I believe you will be happy."

Wu Jing nodded and said, "Lin Chen, please donate this five hundred thousand yuan to the Project Hope for me, as a way for me to accumulate some good karma for Zi Hao."

Lin Chen didn't expect Wu Jing to donate all the money. He knew that five hundred thousand could give her a comfortable life for the rest of her days.

However, seeing Wu Jing's determined look, Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, I will take care of this for you. By the way, I'm thinking of opening a factory in the village. If you're interested, you can speak to Manager Xue; I'll have her arrange a position for you."

"Really? That's wonderful!" Wu Jing nodded happily.

After saying goodbye to Wu Jing and returning home, Lin Chen went straight to his father's study.

Through his X-ray vision, Lin Chen saw his father sitting on the sofa, holding a photograph.

The background of the photo was a very luxurious villa, and in front of the villa stood more than a dozen people, men and women, young and old. In the group picture, he saw his father and mother from their younger days.

Although the other people were all strangers to him, Lin Chen had a feeling that they must all be people close to his father.

"Father, Lin Chen has grown up now, he's doing well, but I really can't bear to load all of the Lin family's hatred onto a child. What should I do?" Lin Hai caressed the picture frame and murmured softly.

"Dad, I am a descendant of the Lin family and should bear the mission of the Lin family. Now that I have grown up, you shouldn't bear all this alone. Tell me," Lin Chen pushed the door and entered the room, looking at his somewhat aged father and spoke seriously.

"Lin Chen!" Lin Hai was stunned to see Lin Chen walking in.

In the past, when Lin Chen was at home, he always concealed his aura, but this time he had released it completely.

Although Lin Chen's strength was only at the later stages of Qi Refinement, his aura was now barely distinguishable from that of a Foundation Establishment expert.

"Lin Chen, have you reached the Foundation Establishment level?" Lin Hai stood up excitedly.

Lin Chen smiled, "Currently, my cultivation level is at the later stage of Qi Refinement, but my strength can compare with someone in the Foundation Establishment Stage."

"Do you mean that the Cultivation Technique you're practicing is of Xuan Rank?" asked Lin Hai, somewhat astonished.

Lin Chen shook his head, "Dad, you've guessed wrong. The Cultivation Technique I'm practicing is of Heaven Rank."

"How is that possible!" Lin Hai was almost dumbfounded.

Lin Hai came from a prominent family, and even within his family, there was only one Xuan Rank Cultivation Technique. It was precisely because of this technique that the Lin family had suffered a devastating blow. Yet now, Lin Chen was cultivating a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique.

Lin Hai hurried to the door, opened it, looked around, and then turned back, "Lin Chen, are you telling the truth?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Dad, now you can tell me about the Lin family, right?"

Lin Hai sighed, "Alright, Lin Chen, I had intended to keep this matter buried in my heart forever because I wanted you and your sister to live a peaceful life. But I didn't expect you to have such fortune. Perhaps this is fate. Since it's come to this, I'll tell you everything about the Lin family."

"Hmm!" Lin Chen nodded and sat down next to Lin Hai.

Lin Hai brought a photograph in front of Lin Chen, his face tinged with sorrow, "This is our Lin family's group picture. At that time, you were still in your mother's belly. The elder in the middle is your grandfather, Lin Zhengtian; this is your second uncle; and this is your third uncle..."

Lin Chen listened attentively to Lin Hai's introduction and learned that the Lin family was once the foremost among the four great families of the Capital City, their strength incredibly formidable.

But fifteen years ago, a catastrophe befell the Lin family. They were eradicated by the joint efforts of the Zhou, Li, and Xue families, the other three of the great families. Lin Hai and his pregnant wife were the only ones who managed to escape, hiding in Peach Blossom Village.

As he listened to that bloody history, Lin Chen clenched his fists. When he heard that his grandfather and uncles had even self-detonated to cover their escape, Lin Chen's tears flowed down.

"Xiaochen, our family's life was bought with the lives of your grandfather and uncles. I know I shouldn't burden you with such hatred at your young age, but I hope that one day, when you have the strength, you will avenge the Lin family," said Lin Hai, tears in his eyes.

Lin Chen nodded, "Don't worry, father. I will settle the score with the Zhou, Li, and Xue families. Grandfather and my uncles will not have died in vain."

Lin Hai nodded with relief, "Mm, Xiaochen, the strength of those three great families is too vast now. You are on your own and must not act rashly. You must wait for the right moment."

"Rest assured, father. I understand this principle. I will definitely restore the Lin family to its former glory."

"Good, that's my boy," laughed Lin Hai, patting Lin Chen's shoulder.

"Father, I've come to heal you this time. Now I can completely cure your illness," said Lin Chen.

"What did you say?" Lin Hai was stunned upon hearing Lin Chen's words.

His injury had already been deemed terminal by doctors; it was simply a question of how much longer he could live.

Lin Hai had been content with Lin Chen's medicine prolonging his life, but now Lin Chen was telling him that he could be completely cured.

"Father, previously my strength wasn't enough to do more than stabilize your condition, but now I'm powerful enough to heal you completely." In truth, Lin Chen had been capable of treating his father since the mid-stage of Qi Refinement, but there had been a certain risk of failure.

Without a hundred percent certainty, Lin Chen wouldn't dare to attempt treating his father's illness, so he had waited until his power reached the late stage of Qi Refinement to decide to heal his father.

"That's great, great!" Upon hearing that he could be fully healed, Lin Hai couldn't hide his joy.

Lin Hai sat cross-legged on the bed, and Lin Chen did the same behind him.

Following the pathway diagram in his mind, Lin Chen continuously channeled his True Qi into over a dozen acupoints on Lin Hai's body.

As the True Qi flowed in, an alarming amount of foul-smelling black liquid began to emerge from Lin Hai's body.

The accumulated toxins within Lin Hai's body were gradually forced out by Lin Chen's True Qi.

About two hours later, Lin Chen saw through his insight that the toxins accumulated in Lin Hai's body had all been expelled, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Father, it's done!" Lin Chen said with a smile.

"Really?" Lin Hai tried to mobilize the True Qi within his body, and a powerful energy surged forth.

Although it was only the cultivation at the early stage of Qi Refinement, three levels lower than his previous cultivation at the Foundation Establishment Stage, it still exhilarated him.

"Haha, I never thought I, Lin Hai, would have the chance to cultivate again."

Because of the toxic Qi in his body, if he used his True Qi, the poison would attack his heart, virtually destroying his cultivation. He had never imagined Lin Chen could drive out all the toxins from his body.

Watching the excited Lin Hai, Lin Chen smiled, "Father, I'll pass on this Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique to you, and I believe you will soon recover all your strength."
