Mentioning the Lin family of Linzhou might be unknown to ordinary people or migrant workers, but anyone with real power in Linzhou would tremble with fear. They would feel
either awe, greed, or dread.
Xu Yu, who had already left, was unaware of the terrifying jealousy and envy that would be stirred if others overheard Lin Zhongzhi's words.
As the premier martial arts family in Linzhou, the Lin family wielded unparalleled power in Linzhou and even the entire Huaijiang Province.
If, officially, the provincial party secretary and governor were the most powerful figures in Huaijiang Province, then in a sense, the Lin family was also a towering tree.
One of the family's elite talents, with the Lin family's unwavering support and his own exceptional abilities and talents, held considerable decision-making power within the Huaijiang Provincial Party Committee.
One of the Lin family's sons-in-law now wields immense power within the provincial government. These two alone are enough to allow the Lin family to act with impunity in Huaijiang Province.
Furthermore, even in economic matters, the Lin family's conglomerate is the most powerful in Huaijiang, and its influence has begun to extend to neighboring provinces and cities.
Even some of the criminal underworld in Linzhou, though not directly controlled by the Lin family, are subject to their authority due to the Lin family's martial arts lineage. No one in Linzhou's criminal underworld dares to disobey any orders issued by them.
Such a powerful family is truly something that countless people in Linzhou would flock to.
Lin Zhongzhi is the new leader of the Lin family in this generation, outside of officialdom. Even those two powerful figures in officialdom, who hold extremely high positions within the Lin family, treat him as an equal.
However, even so, recalling what had just happened, Lin Zhongzhi still broke out in a cold sweat, and glanced furtively at Xu Yu, who had already disappeared into the distance.
He also wanted to send someone to investigate the identity of this mysterious man, but the mere thought of the man's cold attitude sent chills down his spine.
So, at this moment, he hurriedly dialed the number of his father, Lin Yan.
Even though he was the new head of the Lin family, in reality, whenever faced with major decisions, Lin Zhongzhi would mostly consult his biological father, Lin Yan. It was that old man who had arrived in Ningcheng alone in the 1960s, built a vast fortune, and gradually reached his current pinnacle. Therefore, no one dared to question his authority within the Lin family.
At this moment, he clearly heard the other person's breathing quicken as he explained, filled with deep doubt.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable..." After waiting for a long, long time, Lin Zhongzhi finally heard a long sigh of relief from the other end. Then, Lin Yan's somewhat surprised voice rang out again, "You didn't send anyone to follow him, did you?"
"No, I didn't dare, afraid of disturbing that person." Lin Zhongzhi immediately nodded.
"That's good. You'd better not act rashly against someone like that. It's already a great fortune for the Lin family that he saved your life. Don't anger him. Anyway, you've already given him his contact information. If he needs our help in the future, he'll naturally contact us. Now, you should come back." "
Yes." Lin Zhongzhi nodded immediately.
With a strange thought in mind, he glanced again in the direction Xu Yu had gone before quickly taking his wife and daughter back.
Meanwhile, in the eastern district of Linzhou, in the center of a cluster of villas, at the main residence of the Lin family,
a sprightly old man was pacing back and forth in shock.
A young man in his early twenties could actually be such an extraordinary person?!
Even though the news came from his son himself, Lin Yan still couldn't believe it.
To be able to catch a bullet with bare hands so easily—besides an extraordinary person, he couldn't think of anyone else who could do it. At least, even someone like him, who had reached the late stage of Body Cultivation and possessed innate martial arts skills, would still die instantly from a bullet.
Unless it was a peak Body Cultivation martial arts expert who could push their innate martial arts skills to the limit and master their true essence, it would be impossible for them to calmly escape from a gunshot, but even then
, it was impossible to catch it so easily! As a martial arts expert himself, Lin Yan, though he hadn't witnessed it firsthand, knew that those who could withstand bullets with their bare hands were incredible beings. In this modern age, where everything emphasizes science, they might seem like a fantasy to ordinary people, but in fact, it was true.
Cultivation, passed down since ancient times, is a means for ordinary people to break through their physical limits and gradually become incredibly powerful. Even in modern times, there are various training methods publicly available, such as Jeet Kune Do and Judo.
However, modern training methods only cultivate the external body, strengthening physical strength through varying intensities. In contrast, ancient martial arts emphasize both internal and external cultivation.
Internal cultivation focuses on internal strength, while external training focuses on martial arts techniques, honing oneself comprehensively. Therefore, the first stage of martial arts cultivation is self-cultivation!
The power derived from cultivating both internal and external strength is far greater than that of focusing solely on the external body. Even an ordinary master at the peak of the early stages of self-cultivation can easily defeat a Jeet Kune Do or Taekwondo master who focuses only on external strength. However
, cultivating both internal and external strength is significantly more difficult than focusing solely on the external body. Furthermore, in modern times, the primal force in the world that propels cultivators to rapid growth—the spiritual energy of heaven and earth—has become extremely scarce, making cultivation increasingly difficult for those who practice both internal and external strength.
In addition, no powerful force has commercialized and promoted it globally, resulting in very few people knowing about it.
However, once someone achieves success in cultivation, the power they can wield individually is absolutely astonishing, enough to leave ordinary people speechless.
When a martial artist breaks through the peak of the Body Refinement stage and truly steps into the next realm, their power increases with terrifying intensity. Combined with innate martial arts techniques, they can already manipulate the power of heaven and earth on a small scale, hence the term "Spiritual Movement."
But Lin Yan knew clearly that over the past few decades, looking at the entire country, the number of people who could cross the threshold of Spiritual Movement was no more than a handful, and those few were all figures who had once been able to command the winds and waves in the country.
He had only heard of those people by name.
If those rumored figures could catch a bullet with their bare hands, Lin Yan would absolutely believe it!
But he couldn't believe that a young man in his early twenties could do that.
If the other party was also a Spiritual Movement stage expert, he simply couldn't believe it.
"Too young, he's too young. Although it's rumored that in times of abundant spiritual energy, there were many experts who reached the Spiritual Transformation Realm at a young age, that wasn't the modern era, and it wasn't the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Could it be...?" Thinking this, Lin Yan, pacing back and forth, suddenly had a glint of light in his eyes.
If the other party was truly that kind of person, this would truly be the Lin family's greatest opportunity. But then, Lin Yan suddenly lost his composure. The other party had merely saved Lin Zhongzhi casually and then turned and left, seemingly not thinking much of the Lin family. It would be a real pity to miss this opportunity.
But given Lin Zhongzhi's described cold attitude, Lin Yan really didn't dare to send someone to investigate.
However, in the end, he accepted the business card, seemingly not particularly hostile towards the Lin family; perhaps they still had a chance…
For a moment, thinking about it, Lin Yan became anxious and uncertain, simply because the other party's appearance had caused him such a huge shock.
