The Lin family is one of the three native families in Chunfeng Town, and it can be said that they are the most embarrassing ones. In terms of background, they cant compare to the Yun family, and in terms of strength, they cant compare to the Mei family. If it werent for taking advantage of the Yun familys decline to gain some benefits, its uncertain whether the Lin family would still be considered one of the three families. After all, the Lin family is still a family that cant show their face in public. The Yun family is like an empress who is high above, even if they dont have the emperors favor, they are still noble and existent. The Mei family is like a lower-ranking imperial concubine, while the Lin family is like a lowly palace maid who rose to power for a short time. Being listed alongside the Yun and Mei families as one of the three families, the Lin family is ultimately empty at heart.

  The Lin family, relying on their precise minds and ruthless means, accumulated a lot of wealth and struck down many opponents, including the Yun family. The decline of the Yun family gave the Lin family a sense of revenge and pleasure. Having been suppressed for so long, the people who had been at the top suddenly fell, and if they didnt trample on them several times, it wouldnt be in line with the Lin familys style.

  From the head of the household to the younger generation, the Lin family had a strange and twisted feeling in their hearts, a struggle for humility. They knew deep down that they couldnt compare to the Yun family, but they still dared to take action against them. A fallen family, one that retreated from the imperial capital back to Chunfeng Town, what did it matter if they gave birth to a summoner? What did it matter if the Yun family was once glorious?

  The tree falls and the monkeys scatter. In the past, several big families who had a good relationship with the Yun family didnt also turn a blind eye, did they? What qualifications does such a Yun family have to possess such enormous wealth, and what qualifications do they still have to put on a haughty air in front of others?

  The Lin familys teeth are itching with hatred, and their eyes have turned green with greed. So much wealth! If it were theirs, how good would that be... A declining family like this has no right to own these things. With such wealth, they will eventually lose it anyway. Since they cant keep it, why not just put it in their own pockets?

  The Lin family can be said to have performed shamelessness and thick-skinnedness to the realm of perfection. The Mei familys hands-off approach, not helping either side, made the Lin family even more brazen, and they actually dared to do it with such a big attitude. It is clear that although the Lin family was shameless to a certain extent, they were also cunning. The wealth plundered from the Yun family gave the Lin family a solid foundation, which supported the development of this small family. Under the calculations of the Lin family members, the title of the richest in Chunfeng Town eventually fell on the Lin familys head.

  However, during this period, the Lin familys wealth encountered a considerable crisis, making the high-level members of the Lin family busy and worried.

  The Lin familys shops in Chunfeng Town were not many, but they included all the taverns and inns in Chunfeng Town, which were the two most profitable industries that had been monopolized by the Lin family. The fame of Chunfeng Town also attracted more and more adventurers to gather here, and the Lin familys profits increased year after year, making them laugh more wildly every year. However, recently, nearly half of the huge customer base in Chunfeng Town mysteriously disappeared!

  More than half of the guests disappeared, bringing a heavy blow to the catering and accommodation industry in Chunfeng Town. The losses are calculated by the hour, and as time passes and the number of people decreases again, the losses are also multiplied. There are no more guests, and the taverns and hotels have only a few visitors. Chunfeng Town is adjacent to the Misty Forest, and except for those adventurers, no one would come here without a reason. The Lin family, which monopolizes the catering and accommodation industry, is the most unfortunate family in this strange crisis.

  Yuns family and Meis family lost a bit, but Lins family was a staggering figure. Looking at the gold flowing out day by day and the increasingly sluggish market, the high-level executives of Lins family were worried to death.

  Although the Lin family is very wealthy and their reputation as the richest is well-deserved, they cant afford to suffer such losses either...

  If the loss was only in business, it would be fine. After all, if you cant make money, just close it down. However, whats worrying Lins family is not just this point, but also another more important reason, Lin Meng.

  The Lin family, after all these years of development, may be unmatched in accumulating wealth, but in terms of foundation and strength, they are far inferior. If the Yun family were not so sparse in population, how could they have been persecuted by the Lin family to this extent?

  The Lin family, after all these years of development, had only reached the highest level of 8th-level warriors. The summoner that appeared in the Yun family was something they didnt even dare to think about. Not to mention the magician, the Lin family didnt have one either. And the reason why the Lin family was so wary of the Mei family was because the Mei familys strength was far superior to theirs!

  The current head of the Mei family, Mei Ran, is a 6th-level warrior. The second echelon of the Mei family, which includes Mei Bings fathers generation, has two or three 5th-level warriors. Although the Yun family has declined, Yun Jing is also a 5th-level warrior, and Yun Sheng is a magician! As for the Lin family, the current head of the Lin family, Lin Quan, is only a 4th-level warrior! The entire Lin family only has two 5th-level warriors, and they are ashamed of their own strength.

  If it werent for the large amount of money supporting the Lin family to hire some fifth-grade masters, the Lin family might have ceased to exist long ago. In terms of strength, the Lin family is a river that has almost dried up, without any geniuses or innate talents, which makes the Lin family members feel somewhat frustrated and anxious.

  But Lin Meng was born, which made the Lin family tremble with excitement, and their eyes lit up! After so many years, the genius that the Lin family had been waiting for finally appeared, and Lin Meng was the hope of the entire Lin family!

  The Lin family didnt know how much gold they had spent on Lin Meng, nor did they know how much heart and soul they had invested in him. If Lin Meng wanted the stars in the sky, the Lin family would pluck them down for him. Whatever he wanted to do, he could do it. From a young age, Lin Meng was doted on by everyone, pampered to the extreme. Countless precious medicinal herbs were infused into his blood, including the expensive Snow Ginseng that even the Mei family couldnt bear to spend money on - the Lin family had fed it all to Lin Meng as if it were cabbage.

  Lin Mengs qualifications were only slightly higher than those of ordinary children, and the definition of a prodigy was still tens of thousands of miles away. If it werent for the Lin family going crazy to spend money and buy medicine for him, the time it would take Lin Meng to reach the third-level peak would probably be delayed by another ten years.

  Mei Bing is a genius, that arrogant Murong Ran is also a genius, Yun Feng is a genius above the geniuses, and Lin Meng, for his entire life, will not be able to enter this circle.

  At this moment, in the main hall of the Lin family, several middle-aged men with solemn expressions sat, they were all high-level members of the Lin familys generation, their tightly locked brows revealed that the Lin familys recent financial situation had indeed encountered a crisis.

  "Big brother, Little Meng will be taking the graduation exam in a few days, shouldnt big brother..." The speaker was Lin Mengs father, Lin Sen, who was the second younger brother of the head of the Lin family, Lin Quan.

  "Second brother! Youre not unaware of the situation in Chunfeng Town, weve already lost a lot and there are other miscellaneous expenses, where is the money going to come from?" Lin Quans third younger brother, Lin Miao, spoke out with a face hidden in anger.

  Lin Sen hesitated, not knowing what to say. The Lin family had spent enough money on Lin Meng to buy a whole city, and he really didnt want to open his mouth again, especially at this time. However, now was the crucial moment for Little Meng, concerning that one and only quota!

  Linquan sat in the main seat and had not spoken, his hair was a bit white, and the wrinkles on his face were added a lot due to some recent things, looking older.

  "Second brother, how much is needed?" After a long time, Lin Quan rubbed his temples and felt that he was in a difficult situation. He had spent so much on Lin Mengs body, all for this quota. If he didnt catch up now, what if the quota fell into the hands of the Mei family? Then all the gold would be wasted.

  Lin Sens expression was somewhat strange, and after thinking for a moment, he spoke in a low voice, "Five hundred thousand..."

  "What! Five hundred thousand!" Lin Huans eyes widened in anger, and Lin Quan also looked at Lin Sen. As soon as he saw it, he immediately spoke up, "Mei Jias Mei Bing has already broken through to the fourth level, while Xiao Meng is only at the third-level peak. Although their strength is similar, there is still a difference of one level! Five hundred thousand is needed to buy medicine, which will be more secure!"

  Linquans pupils suddenly contracted, his face sank, "What did you say? Mei Bing has already broken through to the fourth level?"

  Lin Sen nodded, Lin Miao also had a shocked face. Recently, the Lin familys affairs were too many, making these two people busy and worried. Now they just knew about Mei Bings situation.

  Lin Quan sat there, pondering for a few seconds before speaking up, "Go buy it, Xiaoming must get this quota."

  Lin Sen was overjoyed when he heard the news, and Lin Meng stopped talking with a pout on his face. After all, Lin Meng was everyones hope, and since they had already spent money, they werent afraid to spend more.

  "By the way, big brother, I heard that little girl from the Yun family didnt die after all." Lin Miao said, furrowing his brow. The people of the Yun family really were tough, werent they? They could even come back to life after already being dead?!

  Lin Quans eyes flashed with a hint of surprise that Yun Feng was not dead, Lin Sen on the side spoke slowly, "That girl didnt die, shes lucky, but Xiao Meng didnt leave any trouble behind, her meridians were crippled."

  As soon as this was said, Lin Quan and Lin Miaos eyebrows also relaxed, and even a few cold smiles appeared in their hearts. Although the result of not dying was not very satisfactory, it had become a waste, which was not bad either. It could be said that they had slapped a loud and clear slap on the face of the Yun family!

  "Hmph, a waste cant even produce any decent results." Lin Quan said casually, and Lin Huan and Lin Sen also chuckled in agreement. As for the quota of the Martial Academy, the Lin family was destined to get it!
