Chapter 1091 — Chapter 1091 Killing Lin Minghai

"You are pleading to the wrong person for mercy." Patriarch Lin kicked his feet, sending Lin Minghai flying.

Lin Minghai immediately stood back up and rushed to Tian Yanyu's side before kneeling before her with his face full of tears and snot.

"Please! Have mercy, Lady Tian! I was wrong! I promise that I will never bother you again if you spare my life!"

Tian Yanyu remained seated on the couch with a calm expression on her face as she silently watched Lin Minghai plead for his life with his knees kissing the floor.

This was a scene that she'd seen multiple times in her dreams, but she never imagined that it could become a reality.

However, as much as she wanted to kill him, she wasn't sure if that was a good decision, especially since the Lin Family could hold a grudge against her family for killing Lin Minghai.

She turned to look at her family for advice.

Unfortunately, both her parents were still frozen stiff from fear because of their situation.

Tian Yanyu proceeded to shift her attention to Yuan, who calmly smiled before speaking, "Just speak your heart's desire. No matter your decision, I will protect you and your family."

When she saw the calmness on Yuan's face, Tian Yanyu also called down.

"Okay." She nodded before turning to look at Lin Minghai, whose face was filled with tears and snot.

"You have been a thorn in my life for many years now, and I cannot count the amount of times that I wanted to kill you with my own hands. However, I lacked both the power and courage."

After taking a deep breath, she continued, "But things are different now."

A cold light flickered within her gaze, and she stood up before facing Lin Minghai.

"I wanted to kill you when you tried to bully me into submission. I wanted to kill you when you messed with my family. I have been wanting to pierce your neck with my sword for many years now, and now that I have the chance, it wouldn't make sense for me to refuse."

Tian Yanyu retrieved her sword from her spatial ring.

"Hiii!" Lin Minghai fell on his buttocks again, and he started kicking his feet at the floor, pushing himself away from Tian Yanyu.

"F-Father! Are you really going to let her kill me?! I am a descendant of the Lin Family! I am your son! You must save me!" Lin Minghai turned to look at Patriarch Lin for help, but his face froze when he saw that Patriarch Lin wasn't even looking at him.

In fact, Patriarch Lin appeared to be ignoring him on purpose.

Seeing this, Lin Minghai knew that his fate was sealed and that he was doomed.

"Please… Lady Tian… Spare my insignificant—"

Whoosh!

Tian Yanyu suddenly took a large step towards Lin Minghai while thrusting her sword at him.

Her cold blade penetrated his neck and came out the other end.

After skewering Lin Minghai's neck with her sword, Tian Yanyu flicked her arm, decapting Lin Minghai completely with one swift and decisive movement.

Lin Minghai's headless body collapsed on the floor a moment later, and not wanting his blood to dirty the room, Lin Chunhua sealed the fatal injury.

Tian Suyin snapped out of her daze after hearing the sound of Lin Minghai's head fall to the ground.

"Yanyu… You…" She was in disbelief, and she feared the Lin Family's retribution.

The room fell silent once again.

Sometime later, Yuan stood up and said to the Lin Family, "Thank you for upholding your promise. I will consider this whole situation settled now, and I will not fault the Lin Family any more."

Lin Chunhua bowed to him, "We only did what was natural."

"Then we will be leaving now." Yuan proceeded to walk towards the door only to stop at the door.

He turned around and continued speaking, "Just a reminder, the Tian Family is under my protection. Any harm towards them and I will consider it a personal attack on me."

"Please be at ease, Young Master. The Lin Family will not touch the Tian Family. In fact, we will even compensate them for whatever damage we've caused them." Lin Chunhua said.

"I-It's okay. We appreciate the offer, but what's done is already done. Let's not dwell on the past and keep moving forward." Tian Xianzu said with a stiff smile on his face.

As enticing as Lin Chunhua's offer was, Tian Xianzu wanted to end all relationships with the Lin Family as soon as possible. And as long as nobody deliberately messes with their business, they will eventually recover all of their losses.

Yuan and the Tian Family left the Lin Family shortly after and returned to their own territory.

Lin Chunhua turned to look at Wu Jie and said, "You will also forget everything that transpired here today. I promise the Lin Family will not touch you or your family for as long as you keep your mouth shut."

"Yes! Please excuse me!" Wu Jie bowed to them before running out of the room.

"Tell the family and others that your son had died in an accident." Lin Chunhua said to Patriarch Lin once they were alone.

"I know," Patriarch Lin sighed.

"Let today be a lesson. This is what happens when one offends someone from the upper heavens. We're lucky to get away with just two dead bodies. If he wanted to, he could've eradicated our entire family."

"I know…" Patriarch Lin repeated in a spiritless voice.

"I will give you some time to rest. We'll talk again in a few days." Lin Chunhua disappeared from the room shortly after.

Later that night, while Lin Chunhua was in his room cultivating and trying to forget about the whole incident, he suddenly sensed a presence appeared in his room like a ghost, forcing him to stop his cultivation.

"Who's there?!" He shouted as he snapped his eyes open.

However, there was nobody else in the room.

'Am I being paranoid?' He wondered inwardly.

Lin Chunhua closed his eyes and resumed his cultivation shortly after, completely unaware of the figure— an old man standing behind him like a ghost.

'At last, I've finally found you, Master...' A profound smile appeared on the old man's face as he secretly consumed Lin Chunhua's memories, taking them for himself.
