C17 Past

When Lin Zhong saw his son wearing the chain armor that he had meticulously prepared for him, a hint of fanaticism appeared in his eyes. In his heart, he sighed at the fact that all his years of hard work had not been in vain.

Originally, he didn't know whether or not his son would be able to wear such a famous armor. After all, the truly powerful weapons were something that one could choose from.

He walked forward and patted Lin Xiu's shoulder. There was a touch of reminiscence and sadness in Lin Zhong's eyes as he said, "This set of Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor s was something I accidentally obtained in an ancient ruin. My injuries were also left behind when I fought over them."

"The background of the Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor is great. According to the legends, the person who obtained it is extremely likely to obtain this armor's former owner, Daoist Nine Dragons's legacy in the future."

"Daoist Nine Dragons?" Lin Xiu was a little confused. He had never heard about the matter of Daoist Jiu Long.

"Daoist Nine Dragons is an almighty existence in this world. Rumor has it that he once charged into the Spirit Realm alone, and cut down the nine heads of True Dragons that were blessed with great power. He then sealed their souls and refined them into nine sets of dragon armor, thus giving him the honorary title of Daoist Nine Dragons. This set in your hand is one of the Nine Dragons Armor!

"After the fall of Daoist Nine Dragons, for a long period of time, the warriors on the Immortal Martial Continent created a huge wave on the continent in order to gather Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor. As for the dynasties of the Spirit Realm, their Dragon Clan s also rushed into the human territories one after another in an attempt to take back the souls of their seniors."

Seeing that his son still didn't understand, Lin Zhong said in a clear voice: "No matter what, you are not allowed to reveal that you have Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor in front of anyone in the future, did you hear that?"

Lin Xiu looked at his father and felt the aura coming from the Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor. He patted his chest and said, "Rest assured old man, I understand the principle of not exposing one's wealth."

"After all, your dragon armor is only one of the Nine Armors, and the Nine Armors becoming one is a true Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor. At that time, even if you don't have the Immortal Martial Continent to move about freely, at least you will have a place. The reason I didn't want you to reveal it is because, between the nine armors, if the distance is close, each of them will sense the other. Your current strength is still weak, I had originally planned to give it to you after you break through to the Mortal Element Stage, but since tomorrow you are going to start your special training, in order to be safe, I took it out in advance. " Lin Zhong's face was full of seriousness.

Lin Xiu, who had obtained the treasure, clearly did not care much about his father's earlier explanation. He was greatly surprised when he heard that Wu Tie originally planned on giving the dragon armor to him after he had reached the Mortal Element Stage realm.

Having seen what Lin Xiu was thinking about, Lin Zhong smiled bitterly and said, "Xiu'er, you can be considered to be an adult now. There are some things that I'll tell you."

"When I was fifteen, I had already reached the Bone Quenching Stage. At that time, due to me being young and overbearing, some conflict occurred between your grandfather and I. In a single breath, I left the Huaining City and traveled to the outside world by myself."

"People who come from small places like us will only understand how much we used to look at the sky after reaching larger cities. The Spirit Fusion Stage that we revere, in an even wider world, is merely someone who has just stepped onto the path of cultivation. "

"Due to the stimulation, I started to cultivate like a madman. Fortunately, my aptitude was decent, and after ten years, I advanced from the Bone Quenching Stage to the Mortal Element Stage. A few years later, I, who was focused on cultivating outside, coincidentally found an ancient ruin. " Speaking up to here, Lin Zhong was a little excited, and his panting sound instantly accelerated.

After pausing for a while, Lin Zhong pulled Lin Xiu and sat on the floor in the room. Then, he continued: "At that time, my strength was not bad and I was lucky enough to reach the Earth Element realm. Because he was the first person to enter the relic, although he suffered some injuries, his harvest was greater. "

"I went all the way into the depths of the ruins. With a slim chance of survival, I obtained the most precious Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor in the ruins!"

"With such a harvest, I naturally didn't dare to stay in the relic for long. But when I just got out of the relic, I shockingly discovered that the relic suddenly collapsed." Lin Zhong still had some lingering fear at this moment.

At this time, Lin Xiu also understood that now that such a commotion had occurred, some big forces would definitely send people to investigate. Under such circumstances, they would have found some traces of his father's footsteps.

"Not long after, several great powers found out where I was through some methods and sent people to chase after me. Fortunately, I was the first to enter. Other than me, no one knew that the treasure in the ruin was the Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor. "

"The people they sent out were only slightly stronger than me. However, they were unable to defeat me in numbers. In the end, I was still heavily injured and had to risk my life to escape."

"When I was heavily injured, my cultivation fell greatly. I hid and hid all the way. I passed by a small village, and it was your mother who saved me." The dark clouds on Lin Zhong's face disappeared. On the contrary, it was gentle.

Speaking to this, Lin Zhong stared at Lin Xiu, causing Lin Xiu to feel scared.

Later on, your mother and I fell in love, and we lived a life of peace and seclusion in that little village. Then there was you, and your mother and I put all our effort into helping you, and even your name was given to you by your mother. Xiu De meant that you would become an indomitable man in the future. Lin Zhong fell into a deep memory. He could vaguely see the shadow of his wife in Lin Xiu's body. There was an indescribable gentleness in her eyes.

"Only, your mother's clansmen found us later." Lin Zhong, who had a gentle look on his face, suddenly had blood-red eyes. The hatred in his eyes was so strong that even Lin Xiu was afraid.

Lin Zhong's voice started to become hoarse, and his words revealed a hint of madness: "Only then did I know that your mother came from a great background, so big that I couldn't even imagine it. But so what! Whoever wants to take my wife away, will have to step over my dead body! "

Lin Zhong became hysterical: "They crippled my right hand and thought that I would give up. But I still have my left hand and I still have my legs. As long as I'm alive, no one can take your mother away!"

Saying that, Lin Zhong's entire body seemed to have become a lot more hunched. He closed his eyes and paused for a moment. When he opened them again, his eyes were filled with tears: "Xiu'er, do you know? I'm too weak, I'm too weak. I hate it, even though I killed a Heaven Element Realm warrior, I myself was also spent. Just at this moment, that group of bastards actually took you from your mother's hands. After sealing you with incomparable viciousness, they even used your life to threaten us. "

Lin Xiu noticed that on his father's right hand, his nails dug deep into his flesh, and the veins on his wrist were popping up.

At this moment, Lin Xiu's heart was filled with hatred towards the people who had hurt his parents. He could imagine the price his parents had paid to protect him!

Sighing weakly, Lin Zhong's eyes became hazy as he muttered, "Wan'er, I'm sorry. I'm too weak. It's all my fault that I'm too weak!"

The last shout was almost made by Lin Zhong. It was filled with hatred towards the enemy and anger towards him for not being strong enough to protect his wife and children!

"Father, can you tell me who took mother away?"

However, Lin Zhong sat on the ground dejectedly. He took out a bottle of wine from his chest and downed it. Then, he gestured for Lin Xiu to leave and asked for silence.

When Lin Xiu came in again, he found that although his father's face was full of pain, but he had calmed down a lot.

"That, I will tell you about when you break through to the Mortal Element Stage. Alright, let's not talk about this now, do you still have any grievances towards your grandfather? " Lin Zhong's tone changed.

Seeing Lin Xiu keep his head low and not dare to say anything, Lin Zhong could not help but get angry: "I don't understand, you little bastard, what kind of resentment do you have?"

Lin Xiu smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to reply.

"Work hard. Xiu'er, you're stronger than me. Be careful when you go out this time. Don't worry your mother." After getting up, Lin Zhong left Lin Xiu with these words before turning around and leaving.

"Xiu'er, since you can wear a Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor, you have to shoulder the responsibility that it represents." Lin Zhong said in his heart.

Behind him, the young man was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. However, he was no longer as excited as when he first obtained the Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor. Instead, he had a face full of determination, "No matter who it is, they can't hurt my family. Father, don't worry. I will definitely help you recover your strength and I will definitely think of a way to save mother. I will make everyone who harmed us pay the price! "

The next morning, Lin Xiu woke up early. The Nine Dragons Sky Locking Armor was wrapped under his clothes, from the outside, he couldn't see anything wrong with it.

Lin Xiu took the bag from Lin Zhong and carried it on his back.

"You're not young anymore, why are you acting like a woman?" Although Lin Zhong said that, he still patted Lin Xiu's shoulder.

The five youths, under the reluctant gazes of their parents, jumped onto their horses. Then, Lin Wentian waved his hands and the young man's body shot out like a cannonball, leaving behind a cloud of mud on the public road.

Lin Xiu took the lead. The light shined on his body, giving him a layer of golden radiance.

After riding the horse to Lin Wentian's side, Lin Xiu looked at the old man with grey hair at his temples and whispered, "Grandpa."
