C51 Buying It Back
The kidnapping of the people from the Alliance of Darkness was just a small interlude, and it did not affect Lin Feng and Ye Lu's purpose of this trip.
Walking on the road to the Lucas Family, Lin Feng recalled what his father had said to him when he left for the Ernst Institute, "Lin Feng, remember the wishes of our ancestors in the Baruch family for the past hundreds of years. Remember the shame of our Baruch family!"
"After you graduate, you will at least be a Level-6 Magician. As long as you cultivate diligently, it won't be difficult for you to become a Level-7 Magician. In addition, you are a double-element Magician! A Level-7 double-element Magician is definitely a big shot in the Kingdom of Fenlai. You will definitely be able to take back the inheritance of the family. If you can't, even if I die, I will not forgive you."
"No matter what, I must get it back." Lin Feng made up his mind.
If it was not good enough, then he would use force.
Of course, it was better to return the inheritance of the family openly. He would try his best to make the other party voluntarily hand it over.
Ye Lu had already sent someone to inform the Lucas Family that he and Lin Feng were going to visit them this morning. Therefore, the Lucas Family had also made preparations.
The living room of the Lucas Family's ancient mansion was decorated in a very tasteful manner. The dozen or so people in the living room were all people with great status in the Kingdom of Fenlai. The lowest rank among them was an Earl, and they were here to wait for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng, a rising star of the Fenlai Kingdom.
Although Lin Feng was only seventeen years old, and he did not have any title, even the duke of the kingdom did not dare to look down on him.
After all, no matter how high their status was, they could only cause trouble in the Fenlai Kingdom. But what about Lin Feng? He was someone who was valued by the Four Great Empires and the two alliances. Perhaps in a few decades, Lin Feng would become the Red Cloaked Cardinal of the Holy See, and his status would be even higher than the king of the kingdom.
Taking advantage of the fact that the other party's status was not considered too high, it was naturally very important to build a good relationship with him.
Among these dozen people, only the Lucas Family's Patriarch, Marquis Jebs, felt uncomfortable. He was old, and he no longer had any other hobbies. What he liked the most was the first personal weapon of the Dragonblood Warrior, and he had always been proud of it.
But now, the descendant of the other party's family had come, and he wanted this treasure.
"Mr. Lin Feng, please."
"Mr. Ye Lu, please."
The voice of the servant outside the door entered the living room, causing the dozen or so aristocrats in the living room to look outside with smiles on their faces. Even the unwell Earl Jebs squeezed out a smile and went up to welcome them.
This was the first time Lin Feng had been called a 'Mr.', and he was still not used to it. At this time, he also saw the silver-haired old man with shiny silver hair walking over with a smile on his face. He said very politely, "I welcome Lin Feng and Ye Lu to my Lucas Family. As the patriarch of the family, I, Jebs, feel honored."
Lin Feng could not help but reveal a smile on his face. No matter if it was his previous life or his current life, this was the first time that Lin Feng had been treated so politely. He could not help but sigh in his heart, "Reputation is indeed a good thing. No wonder everyone in the world loves to fight for fame and profit."
With a reputation, the following conversation went quite smoothly. In the end, Lin Feng successfully bought the family heirloom saber, Slaughter, for 500,000 gold coins.
This 500,000 gold coins was a gift from Lin Feng. Marquis Jebs originally intended to return it for free and exchange it for Lin Feng's favor. However, how could Lin Feng receive such a favor for no reason? Although 500,000 gold coins was a small amount, it was still a gesture.
On the road to Wushan Town in Fenlai City, the cedar trees lined up neatly on both sides of the road. Lin Feng was walking slowly on the road, while Bebe was standing on Lin Feng's shoulder, looking at the familiar scenery around him and constantly sighing.
"Boss, we are about to reach home. You should be happy, why are you so worried?" Bebe's puzzled voice sounded in Lin Feng's heart.
"Happy?" Lin Feng laughed bitterly. He knew that not only would he not be able to see his father this time, but he would also find out about the news of his father's death. How could he be happy?
Although Hogg was only his cheap father, after being together for eight or nine years, Lin Feng had long regarded Hogg as his own biological father. Although he knew that dying might not be a relief for his father, and that he would be able to revive Si Wangzhuzai in the future, when he thought about how his father would leave him for many years, Lin Feng's heart felt very uncomfortable.
This time, when Lin Feng returned home, he did not choose to lead a hundred cavalry to return home in glory like the original book did. Instead, he chose to keep a low profile. Even the guards sent by the Holy See to protect him were rejected by him.
Lin Feng did not want to disturb the peaceful life of the citizens of Dark Mountain Town because of his own reasons. Moreover, his father was a low-key person when he was alive. After his death, he would definitely not want anyone to disturb him. Furthermore, Lin Feng hated the vulgar funeral.
In Lin Feng's opinion, even if those aristocrats and wealthy people came to pay their respects to his father on his behalf, they were all hypocritical and did not have a shred of sincerity. Instead of that, it would be better to let his father rest in peace.
Standing in front of the main gate of the Ba Luke Mansion, Lin Feng raised his head and looked at the plaque on the door that had already been peeled off. A sense of pride surged in his heart.
"Father, I did it. I brought back the Slaughterer, but why didn't you wait for me to come back before you left?"
This was the first time Lin Feng had shed tears in this world, tears for his father.
After that, through Xi Erman's confirmation, Lin Feng finally knew that his father had indeed died. Through the letter left by his father, Lin Feng found out that his father, Hogg, was killed by Patterson just like the original book had described.
After handing the Slaughterer to Xi Erman and asking her to take care of his younger brother, Wo Dun, Lin Feng brought his father's ashes to the cemetery outside Dark Mountain Town.
The wind howled, and there were graves not far from the cemetery outside of Dark Mountain Town. At this time, an extremely luxurious new cemetery had been built. A short-haired Lin Feng was sitting cross-legged in front of the tombstone.
This cemetery was built by Lin Feng in one night. With Lin Feng's current strength, it was easy for him to move those huge rocks. In addition, Lin Feng had already reached the level of a master sculptor, so the construction of this cemetery was indeed very luxurious.
The wind howled, but Lin Feng was quietly standing there.
Lin Feng looked at the tombstone, and a calm smile appeared on his face. He said softly, "Father, I'm back."
"I know that your greatest wish in this life is to find the treasure of our family inheritance, and even reestablish the glory of our Dragonblood Warrior family." Lin Feng seemed to be worried that he would alarm anyone. His voice was very soft, and he was very careful.
Lin Feng stared at the tombstone. "I didn't let you down. I have brought back the treasure of my Baruch family, the Dragonblood Warrior family, the Slaughtering Blade."
"Now, I have brought back the Slaughtering Blade, and very soon, I will let the Dragonblood Warrior family reestablish its glory. I will let everyone in the Yulan continent know about the glory of the Dragonblood Warrior family, and also let your name be known by everyone in the Yulan continent."
"I swear, I will definitely do it."
A trace of killing intent suddenly appeared on Lin Feng's face, "Of course, before that, I have to avenge you."
"The person who killed you, I will definitely make him die!"
"As for my mother's revenge, I will kill Patterson and Ke Laide, and I will also uproot the Holy See. Don't worry, Father, I will help you finish what you haven't done. I will save my mother from the hands of the Holy See, and Si Wangzhuzai will revive you. Then, we will reunite. I will definitely do it!"
"Alright, Father, I will leave now. I will come back to see you when I have time."
Lin Feng heavily kowtowed three times, then stood up and walked towards the Baruch family mansion.
