NOVEL NEXT Chapter 858: Three Fall
And the more they felt this way, the three of them gradually started to calm down from their initial terror.
At the same time, it seemed as if the three of them had accepted their respective fates.
At this moment, even the last shred of resistance in their hearts faded away.
At this moment, after Chen Jianyi and his group accepted the outcome of certain death, Lin Tianming and Lin Tianhu also gathered together.
Immediately afterward, they all raised their heads and gazed at Chen Jianyi and his group with a stern and ruthless expression, their faces devoid of any emotion.
From the standpoint of Lin Tianming and the Lin Family Members, regardless of any changes that might occur next, whatever thoughts or reactions the other side might have, there was no possibility of letting them go.
After all, between the Tianqing Sect's three major powers and the Lin Family, there was a deep and unresolvable hatred.
This grudge concerned the fate of each power and affected every single sect disciple involved in these conflicts.
On such a foundation, even if the Tianqing Sect were to overlook the destruction of their mountain gate and the massacre of a large part of their Sect Members, the Lin Family couldn't possibly let this matter go easily.
Conversely, even if the Lin Family were willing to stop pursuing past grievances and not hold the other side accountable.
But once the other side recovered, they wouldn't easily let go of this matter, nor would they likely forget it completely.
Moreover, if one day they gained enough power, they might seek revenge against the Lin Family.
Under such circumstances, Lin Tianming concluded that he would not miss this rare opportunity to eliminate threats in their infancy.
According to Lin Tianming's plan, now that they found the traces of the Tianqing Sect's three major powers and cornered them in this canyon, it was a great opportunity to put an end to this enmity.
After all, Lin Family currently held an absolute advantage in overall strength compared to the other side, and the leaders of the opposing three powers were all seriously injured.
Additionally, the battlefield's location lay within the Lin Family's controlled territory.
Thus, the Lin Family could be said to have seized the right time and place.
Given such conditions, no matter from which angle Lin Tianming looked at it, or what other considerations he had, this was indeed an extremely rare opportunity.
These aspects were just one reason among others for Lin Tianming's determination.
Furthermore, a critical point is that Chen Jianyi and his group, as actual controllers of their own powers, must carry a significant portion of their respective power's resources on them.
Although the mountain gates of these several powers were previously breached, and part of the resources in their Treasure Vault were looted by people from three great powers of the Lin Family.
But when Chen Jianyi and others left, they tried to take away as many resources as possible.
These items, taken along, were relatively high in single value.
Thus, these items represented the true foundation accumulated over thousands of years by the powers of the Tianqing Sect.
According to the comprehensive strength of these powers at their peak, the items that could be preserved and brought at critical moments were certainly not ordinary.
In this way, as long as Lin Tianming killed people like Chen Jianyi, those belonging to the three great powers of the Tianqing Sect, the true foundation would all fall into the hands of the Lin Family.
It was precisely because of this that these foundational resources and treasures were major factors attracting Lin Tianming.
And being fully aware of this, Lin Tianming acted so decisively and did not forget to summon reinforcements.
This was essentially in hopes of taking this opportunity to capture Chen Jianyi and his group in one sweep, thus permanently solving this significant future threat.
Therefore, at this moment, Lin Tianming showed an indifferent expression, with no trace of emotion on his demeanor.
Even though Chen Jianyi and his group had accepted the outcome of certain death and expressed no resistance, Lin Tianming had no thoughts of mercy.
He was very clear in his heart that showing mercy to the enemy was cruelty to oneself.
Moreover, this was a world of cultivation, where deceit and strength reigned supreme.
If the opponent stood in his position, they certainly wouldn't leave any threats for the future.
Given this, for his sake and for the nearly ten thousand members of the Lin Family, there was no need to show mercy.
With this understanding, Lin Tianming looked at the expressionless Chen Jianyi and his group, then turned to Lin Tianhu beside him and instructed.
"Tianhu, you and Changjin are responsible for pursuing those who escaped, and make sure their lives are taken."
Having said that, Lin Tianming then turned to Lin Tianqin and said, "Second sister, you pair up with Xiao Diao, and deal with those Early Stage Golden Core cultivators."
"As for the others, leave them all to me!"
As soon as the words dropped, Lin Tianming's gaze swept over the present Lin Family Members.
At this moment, hearing Lin Tianming's instructions and seeing his unemotional manner of speaking, Lin Tianhu quickly nodded.
Subsequently, Lin Tianhu and Lin Changjin hurried to agree.
"Rest assured, leave them to us!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming slightly nodded as well, then didn't say much more.
In the next instant, Lin Tianhu took the lead and leapt, heading towards the direction where the two Mid Stage Golden Core Cultivators were escaping.
Seeing this, Lin Changjin, not willing to fall behind, quickly followed suit, leaping and chasing in the direction where the cultivator surnamed Luo had escaped.
