Like Elder Li from the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall, who was also a Void Realm powerhouse, but Lin Yun certainly couldn’t ask Elder Li such a question.
“Severing a soul contract?”
Manor Lord Wu was taken aback: “Could it be that young friend Lin Yun bears a soul contract? Right, I haven’t yet inquired which faction Daoist Friend Lin Yun belongs to.”
“Manor Lord Wu, I do have some unspeakable difficulties, so it’s inconvenient to disclose.” Lin Yun said with a wry smile.
Lin Yun knew that the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall had an extremely poor reputation, and it even had numerous enemies in the ancestral land.
Lin Yun certainly didn’t dare to casually reveal this identity of his.
“Since Daoist Friend Lin Yun has such difficulties, I won’t press you.” Manor Lord Wu said.
Manor Lord Wu continued: “As for a method to sever Lin Yun’s contract, at least within my knowledge, this is almost impossible to resolve.”
“Thank you, Manor Lord Wu, for clarifying.” Lin Yun said with a polite smile.
Lin Yun had known that Manor Lord Wu would most likely say this. Lin Yun had persisted in asking only with a faint hope, what if Manor Lord Wu did know something?
“By the way, young friend Lin Yun, I heard from Chengtian that you also wield the sword. I have a Void Realm friend who has delved into the sword path for several hundred thousand years. Perhaps he can offer you some guidance, or perhaps it might provide you with some inspiration. How about I take you to meet him tomorrow? You’ve saved my three sons, so this can count as a modest expression of my gratitude to you.” Manor Lord Wu said.
“Manor Lord Wu, this would trouble you far too much.” Lin Yun waved his hand in refusal.
It wasn’t that Lin Yun was unwilling, but he truly didn’t want to impose on Manor Lord Wu.
“Haha, it’s no trouble at all. It’s been some time since I’ve visited this friend. Just think of it as me going to see an old companion and bringing you along, then I’ll mention it to him. As for how much he’s willing to instruct you, and whether he’ll instruct you from the heart, that will depend on your own fortune. There’s no need for you to decline further.” Manor Lord Wu said.
“In that case, then I thank Manor Lord Wu.” Lin Yun stood and cupped his fists.
“It’s already deep into the night now. Young friend Lin Yun, you should head back to rest first. Tomorrow morning, come to meet me outside my study, and then we’ll depart.” Manor Lord Wu stood up.
“Very well.” Lin Yun replied.
After bidding farewell to Manor Lord Wu, Lin Yun made his way to the manor’s guest quarters.
That afternoon, Wu Qing and Wu Yue had already arranged accommodation for Lin Yun, a residence in the manor set aside specifically for guests.
There were still five years until the Treasure Appraisal Conference in Heart City of the ancestral land. During these five years, Lin Yun planned to stay temporarily at the Wu Family Manor.
Five years was actually rather brief for someone at the Tongtian Realm.
Upon returning to the guest room.
Lin Yun waved his hand and produced a shattered black object.
This was what he had obtained from Lie Wuyan after slaying him back then. Lin Yun had been attempting to infuse it with his internal energy for it to absorb.
Over this long period, whenever Lin Yun had a moment of leisure, he would take time to infuse it with internal energy.
Lin Yun entered the One Thought Clear Heart Tower.
“Let’s continue.”
After entering the One Thought Clear Heart Tower, Lin Yun immediately circulated his internal energy and poured it into the black object.
Only after dawn broke outside did Lin Yun finally stop.
“Still no reaction.” Lin Yun gazed at the black object and shook his head in helplessness.
Logically speaking, after so many infusions of internal energy for absorption, if this approach worked, there should at least be some sign of repair in the cracks on its surface, right?
Yet up to this point, there was still utterly no reaction, not even the slightest reduction in the cracks!
Lin Yun had even considered abandoning this method many times.
It was merely that Lin Yun reasoned, since it could absorb his internal energy, it should logically have some effect, shouldn’t it?
It was precisely because of this that Lin Yun had continued persisting with the infusions of internal energy.
“Never mind, that’s enough for today.”
As he spoke, Lin Yun stored it away into his storage space.
Today, Lin Yun had an appointment with Manor Lord Wu to visit his friend’s place, so naturally, he had no time to keep fiddling with it.
Afterwards, Lin Yun exited the One Thought Clear Heart Tower space, left the guest room, and headed to Manor Lord Wu’s study to rendezvous with him there.
Lin Yun felt a measure of anticipation regarding today’s meeting with Manor Lord Wu’s friend, after all, his swordsmanship truly hadn’t seen any substantial advancement in quite some time.
After arriving in the ancestral land, Lin Yun hadn’t received personal instruction from any powerhouse who cultivated the sword.
Of course, Lin Yun was well aware that whether Manor Lord Wu’s this friend would be willing to instruct him, and to what extent, remained quite uncertain.
