Qingzhou, Jinfeng Nation Cultivation World, within the ancestral grounds of the Lin Family on Qingyun Mountain.
Currently, several high-ranking members of the Lin household have gathered inside the cave mansion of Lin Shilu, notably including Lin Xingrong and Lin Xingping.
Lin Shilu’s brows are knitted tightly together, his features etched with a grave expression.
After a long silence, he heaved a soft sigh and spoke: “Xing Rong, you claim the Blood Red Alliance is mobilizing on a massive scale and that even a Nascent Soul expert like Song Chufeng has personally surfaced.”
“How reliable is this intelligence?”
Upon hearing the query, Lin Xingrong contemplated for a moment before answering with somber gravity.
“Fifteenth Uncle, according to our reports, the information originated from Shuofang City.”
“The report clearly states that witnesses observed over a hundred cultivators from the Blood Red Alliance at Yulan City, with more than twenty percent possessing Golden Core stage cultivation.”
“Although Song Chufeng did not reveal himself, he appears to be deliberately obscuring his identity.”
“Even though they attempted to disguise their appearances and suppress their aura, several keen-eyed Golden Core cultivators managed to identify them.”
“With such a massive lineup deployed, it is clear the Blood Red Alliance has dire intentions.”
“A mobilization of this size typically suggests they are preparing to challenge a formidable opponent, requiring a Nascent Soul expert at the helm.”
“Thus, most experienced cultivators share the judgment that Song Chufeng is likely hidden among them.”
“I have reached the same conclusion.”
“Furthermore, I suspect the Blood Red Alliance has set its sights on our own Lin Family.”
“That is precisely why we hurried back to report this development immediately.”
Before he could finish, Lin Xingping interjected.
Nodding slightly, Lin Xingping stated: “Fifteenth Uncle, Xing Rong’s assessment is logical.”
“At this precarious moment, every second is vital for the Lin Family; we cannot afford the luxury of negligence.”
As he spoke, Lin Xingping’s face remained solemn, as if anticipating an approaching tempest.
Hearing both men arrive at this conclusion, Lin Shilu nodded gravely.
In truth, once he reviewed the intel, he had reached the exact same deduction.
To him, the Lin Family currently feels like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bowstring.
In such a sensitive window of time, the Lin Family prefers to act as if the danger is real rather than dismiss it.
A delay in response could exact a devastating toll upon the clan.
Therefore, whether the movements of the Blood Red Alliance are aimed at us or not, the Lin Family must maintain absolute vigilance.
Consequently, Lin Xingrong’s swift return to provide this warning was the wisest possible move, a choice Lin Shilu fully endorsed.
However, the pressing issue remains: what strategy should the Lin Family adopt to survive?
Acknowledging this, Lin Shilu scanned Lin Xingping, Lin Xingrong, and the other gathered family members.
He then declared slowly: “Xing Rong’s analysis is sound; his caution is highly commendable.”
“The immediate dilemma is that Tianming has yet to emerge from his seclusion, and we have no timeline for his return.”
“At this critical juncture, if the Blood Red Alliance strikes, how should we proceed?”
“Do you have any suggestions or thoughts on this matter?”
After posing the question, he surveyed the kin, weighing their collective wisdom.
As the crowd began to offer their input, Lin Shilu synthesized their suggestions into a definitive plan of action.
Initially, the Lin Family must remain at full alert, activating the clan’s Defensive Great Formation to brace for potential conflicts.
This has been their standard operating procedure in recent years, one they dare not relax for an instant.
As for the various spirit land industries belonging to the Lin Family, those considered less vital or peripheral will be temporarily abandoned, while keeping the critical trade hubs and high-profit areas secure.
The forces withdrawn from these sites will be redirected to bolster the defenses of the nearest major city markets.
In short, the priority is to concentrate all available power on the most essential assets.
The Qingyun Mountain grounds remain the absolute core of their defense strategy.
As long as the mountain remains secure, allowing Lin Tianming to continue his cultivation undisturbed, other material sacrifices can be made.
Of course, they will prioritize defense wherever possible, but if a position becomes untenable, the members are authorized to abandon assets to preserve their own lives.
After all, as long as the clan lives, all lost spirit lands can eventually be reclaimed once the Lin Family navigates this crisis.
This sentiment became the common consensus among the clan’s seniors.
These form the foundation of the Lin Family’s crisis management plan.
Beyond this, they cannot overlook the possibility of seeking external aid.
Given that several major powers within Jinfeng Nation are long-standing allies, these forces represent a buffer they must consider leveraging.
