Chapter 1112 Completely Different (16)
After spending a few days in the Galactic Humanity Alliance, Lin Fan headed off to the Blue Star Planet.
This time, he didn't bring anyone with him other than the usual four because he knew that this would be a very short trip.
There was no one that he was close to on the Blue Star Planet since he had spent too little time there in the first place and he was still getting used to being in this world, so there wasn't much catching up for him there.
Other than the stores, there was the remaining Lin Family that he had to deal with.
There were some that wanted to come with him, but in the end, he was able to convince them to stay.
With that, they headed off for the Blue Star Planet.
This was a very short flight because there was very little distance between the Blue Star Planet and the Galactic Humanity Alliance. It was so short that they were able to create a direct passage between the two realms, which would normally take a lot of energy, but was possible because of this short distance.
In fact, Lin Fan could have taken this passage in the first place instead of using his ship.
But he didn't want to since he had bad memories of this passage from when he first took it.
After he arrived on the Blue Star Planet, the first thing that Lin Fan did was head off to True Light City.
That was where the Lin Family lived.
Since this was a lower realm, he made sure to activate the ship's camouflage function and they hid themselves when they arrived. They landed outside the city and then flew into the city under the cover of their laws, not alerting a single person.
It was only when they arrived at the Lin Family's manor that they revealed themselves.
As soon as they did, they were immediately surrounded by guards of the Lin Family.
These guards all had shocked looks on their faces since they hadn't sensed these people until they suddenly appeared out of thin air. It was as if they didn't exist until just a few seconds ago when they suddenly appeared.
But they didn't sense any danger coming from them, so they didn't hesitate to surround them with their weapons.
Not a single one of them questioned why they didn't sense any aura from them, almost as if they didn't have any cultivation at all.
They were only thinking about doing their jobs and protecting the manor. That was how caught off guard they were.
Lin Fan didn't seem to mind that they were pointing their weapons at him.
Seeing them like this, he even gave a nod as if he was praising them.
These people didn't even think about the danger that could come to them and only thought about their jobs. It seemed that the Lin Family had recruited some capable guards.
The only limitation that they had was that they were born in this lower realm.
If they had been born in the Lin Astral Empire, they certainly would have gotten somewhere. Lin Fan might have even been tempted to recruit them into his guards.
But since they were too old, it was impossible for them to grow much stronger now.
So bringing them back with him would be a waste.
He was about to raise his hand to stop them, but before he could, there was noise that came from inside of the manor.
It didn't take long before a voice shouted, "Lin Fan!"
Lin Fan didn't need to think to recognize this voice, it was the second elder of the Lin Family.
After they had left for the Lin Astral Empire, the second elder had taken over as head of the family since the first elder wasn't willing to accept it. The first elder was still as obsessed with cultivation as ever, so the second elder was finally able to obtain what he wanted.
But now that Lin Fan was back, the second elder couldn't help feeling a bad premonition…
He was scared of Lin Fan after everything that had happened between them and he felt that Lin Fan's return wasn't a good thing.
But to his surprise, Lin Fan suddenly revealed a smile and said, "Second great uncle, it has been a long time since we last met."
The second elder couldn't help being taken aback when he heard this before saying, "I'm now the family head of this Lin Family, you should address me as such."
Lin Fan didn't take offense at this before saying in an uncaring voice, "Is that so?"
The second elder's face twisted when he heard this, but before he could say anything else, there was a voice that suddenly said, "Your highness, what are you doing here?"
There was another person that suddenly came over and landed in front of Lin Fan.
Then in front of everyone, he fell to one knee and bowed in front of Lin Fan.
When the members of the Lin Family who came out saw what this commotion was, they couldn't help being shocked by this.
That was because the person that was bowing in front of Lin Fan was Yu Ling.
This was the person that had been left behind by the Lin Family ancestor to take care of them.
On the first day that he was here, he had already shown them the difference between them. On that day, they knew that he was far superior to them and who was actually in charge of the Lin Family.
So even if the second elder had become the family head, it was this Yu Ling who actually controlled the Lin Family.
In fact, he was the one that had taken control of all of their businesses and had come up with a plan that greatly expanded them.
The current Lin Family had far greater influence on this Blue Star Planet compared to before all because this Yu Ling was here. He had expanded all of their businesses and his subordinates had taken care of all the rats that had tried to move in on these businesses.
In terms of intelligence and power, there was no one that could match him.
But someone like this was actually bowing to Lin Fan and calling him 'your highness'.
This was just too shocking for the Lin Family members.
Just how much had Lin Fan changed in the time that he had been away?
Lin Fan looked down at Yu Ling bowing in front of him and he knitted his brows as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he finally revealed a look of recognition as he said, "Yu Ling? Was that your name?"
Yu Ling revealed a bitter smile, but he bowed his head again and said, "Yes, your highness."
Lin Fan looked at Yu Ling a bit longer before giving a nod and said, "Oh, you're the one that we left behind to take care of the Lin Family." Lin Fan looked at the Lin Family members and the guards around them before saying, "Not bad, not bad, it seems like you've done quite a good job."
Even though they were currently at war with the Beast Race, the Lin Family members were all looking healthy and dressed in luxury. As well, there were these loyal guards that were guarding the manor.
It seemed that Yu Ling had really taken proper care of the Lin Family.
Hearing what Lin Fan said, Yu Ling gave an even deeper bow, but there was an excited look on his face.
He knew that based on this, it would seem like he would be greatly rewarded for his actions.
Yu Ling was only in the True Soul Realm, he wasn't someone who was even considered that high up in the Lin Astral Empire, which was why he was chosen.
He was one of the random workers for the Lin Astral Family that had shown great intelligence, so he had been picked out of the rest to come down to this lower realm to take care of this Lin Family.
Yu Ling had been disappointed at first because of this, but then he heard that these people were related to the Lin Astral Family, which was why he had put in all this effort to take care of him.
Now that he had been praised by Lin Fan, he knew that all of his effort had been worth it.
The Lin Family members didn't say a thing as they watched Yu Ling's interaction with Lin Fan in shock.
But then they were pulled out of this shock when Lin Fan suddenly asked them, "Have you all been well?"
All of them just looked at Lin Fan with strange looks after hearing this question from him.
Not a single one of them was able to say a thing in response to this.
Yu Ling couldn't help knitting his brows when he saw this.
He had trained these members of the Lin Family properly since he had been disappointed in them in the first place. They would be joining the Lin Astral Family in the future, so he had wanted them to at least fit that status.
But now he was disappointed that they couldn't even remember a single thing he had taught them.
Yu Ling looked at them and opened his mouth as if he was about to say something, but Lin Fan cut him off by saying, "It's fine."
Yu Ling was taken aback by this, but then he quickly lowered his head again.
Lin Fan gave one more look at the members of the Lin Family before saying, "All of you get ready, you're coming back to the Lin Astral Empire with me."
