Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 2209 - 1129: Territory (Part 2)
Now, with the Yang Clan no longer in existence, the Lin Family's power has greatly increased.
At this critical juncture, the Lin Family indeed sees no necessity to continue supporting the Myriad Cultivators Alliance.
Therefore, when Lin Tianming expressed his stance, Liang Zhuoying was not surprised. He felt a sense of relief with this outcome.
In his view, Lin Tianming's attitude was not particularly aggressive.
Especially in terms of territory, the Lin Family did not show much ambition.
Moreover, regarding the Liang Family, Lin Tianming's attitude was rather amiable and he did not force the Liang Family to make any drastic changes.
This was precisely the aspect that concerned Liang Zhuoying the most and about which he was most uncertain.
However, it seems now that the Liang Family's apprehension might have been excessive.
Nonetheless, to demonstrate sincerity, Liang Zhuoying, after resolving issues about the Yang Clan territory and the Myriad Cultivators Alliance, took the initiative to express the Liang Family's stance.
Furthermore, in Liang Zhuoying's view, over the years, the Liang Family acquired considerable territory, initially obtaining significant lands from several forces like the Yuanchen Sect and Tianqing Sect after the conflicts in Jinfeng Nation had ended, almost doubling the territories they controlled compared to before the Jinfeng Nation turmoil.
However, the Liang Family had lost many clan members over the years, and with their current strength, maintaining control over such extensive lands seemed beyond their capacities.
As a result, after a high-level discussion, the Liang Family decided to voluntarily relinquish a portion of their territory bordering the Lin Family and offer it to the Lin Family free of charge.
This area contained over a dozen various city markets and hundreds of spirit land industries, accounting for about 20% of the Liang Family's total territory.
This particular area generates significant annual profits, making it a highly coveted asset for any Golden Elixir Force.
By willingly presenting this vast area, the Liang Family clearly acknowledged the current state of Jinfeng Nation and realized their own situation as well.
Currently, Jinfeng Nation is left with two major powers, with the Lin Family being a Nascent Soul Level force, effectively gaining full control over Jinfeng Nation.
If the Liang Family dared even to harbor a thought, they would likely incite suspicion from the Lin Family.
Thus, to gain more space and time to survive, the Liang Family had to position themselves appropriately.
Their self-sacrifice of benefits was indeed a wise move.
As for the subsequent impacts, it could be predicted that throughout Jinfeng Nation, based on the Liang Family's initiative, it was evident that the Lin Family undoubtedly had someone who advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Otherwise, the Liang Family, a top-tier family with Golden Core heritage for millennia, would not have humbled themselves so much before the Lin Family.
Beyond Jinfeng Nation, cultivators from other countries could also surmise the changes within the Lin Family based on the transformations within Jinfeng Nation.
Hence, behind the Lin Family's series of actions, it was inevitable that someone had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Lin Tianming, however, did not pay much heed to this.
From his perspective, as long as his strength was formidable enough, none of these mattered.
Moreover, even if the Lin Family wanted to conceal these facts, it wasn't feasible.
After all, with the Blood Red Alliance suffering such a disastrous defeat, where all sect disciples from Jinfeng Nation were wiped out, even Song Chufeng, who was at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, was killed.
If the Lin Family had no one who advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage amidst such upheaval, no one would believe it.
Since it would eventually come to light, concealing any further was pointless.
Thus, the Lin Family need not intentionally hide anything, nor should they forfeit visible benefits, but should openly fight for their own interests instead.
Regarding the revenge from the Blood Red Alliance, the current Lin Family need not be overly concerned.
After all, Lin Tianming had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage, his power not inferior to that of an average Nascent Soul Middle Stage expert.
Besides, in terms of Golden Core Stage clansmen, the Lin Family is also unlike before.
For instance, currently, the Lin Family alone boasts nearly fifty Golden Core Stage clansmen, among whom several have reached the Golden Core Great Perfection Realm.
Furthermore, the Lin Family also has many clansmen at the Late Stage Golden Core.
With such strength backing them, the Lin Family fears no Nascent Soul Forces throughout Qingzhou.
Even towards the Blood Red Alliance and Yulan Sect, the Lin Family has little to fear.
Understanding this point, Lin Tianming had no intention of rejecting the Liang Family's gesture of goodwill.
As for the territory offered by the Liang Family, there was no point in being coy.
It should be known that the territory takes up 20% of the Liang Family's ground, which is even larger than a third of the current Lin Family's territory.
If the Lin Family controlled these territories, then their dominion would surpass over half of the Jin Feng Country Cultivation World.
Besides, the section of the territory contained numerous city markets, including a medium-sized Haoyue City, whose size, though slightly smaller than the Lin Family's largest city Nanfeng City, is undoubtedly one of the few large cities within Jinfeng Nation.
With these territories and spirit land industries, the Lin Family's overall foundation would further be enhanced.
Therefore, faced with immense benefits, Lin Tianming, both publicly and privately, was unwilling to relinquish this juicy opportunity.
This sentiment was not only Lin Tianming's own but also shared by Lin Shilu.
Given that both high-ranking members of the Lin Family thought this way, naturally, the Lin Family had no reason to refuse the Liang Family's gesture of goodwill.
Thus, faced with Liang Zhuoying's remarks, Lin Tianming responded righteously, "Since the friends of the Liang Family find it challenging, the Lin Family is willing to share some of your burdens."
Though it was a polite gesture, Lin Tianming said it without embarrassment.
On the other hand, Liang Zhuoying and his siblings naturally understood that Lin Tianming was merely offering pleasantries; should he take it seriously, the Lin Family might instantly change their stance.
Should they truly fall out with the Lin Family, it would spell true disaster for the Liang Family.
Furthermore, while the Blood Red Alliance's strength is indeed fearsome and their ways domineering, the Blood Red Alliance is ultimately an external force, far removed from Jinfeng Nation.
On top of that, the Blood Red Alliance has many enemies, including several powerful Nascent Soul Forces.
As a result, anything the Blood Red Alliance attempts often faces greater resistance, drawing more entanglement.
In contrast, the Lin Family is right in front of the Liang Family, their strength equally daunting.
Facing such a foe is more terrifying than the Blood Red Alliance.
In this, the Liang Family, familiar with the Lin Family, and Liang Zhuoying, being knowledgeable about the Lin Family, naturally understood the Lin Family's fearsome nature.
Therefore, after Lin Tianming made his stance clear, Liang Zhuoying felt relieved.
Because in his view, the Lin Family's acceptance of their goodwill indicated they had no designs on the Liang Family.
At least in the short term, the Lin Family wouldn't have any intentions against the Liang Family.
Instead, at this moment, the Liang Family could still find shelter under the Lin Family. Should the Blood Red Alliance make any moves against the Liang Family, they would certainly be restrained by the Lin Family.
This outcome was one of the Liang Family's objectives for this visit.
Now, with Lin Tianming making his position clear, the outcome was exactly what the Liang Family hoped to see.
Thus, the Liang Family's various goals would be achieved.
Understanding this, both Liang Zhuoying and his sister felt quite pleased and breathed a sigh of relief.
With the issues regarding the Yang Clan and the Myriad Cultivators Alliance effectively resolved, and the Liang Family's goodwill reciprocated, the atmosphere in the venue reached a climax.
The mood of Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu was also exceedingly positive, elevating the atmosphere to a peak.
Subsequently, several members of the Lin Family engaged in some casual conversations with Liang Zhuoying, discussing the handover of the Liang Family Territory.
For this, Liang Zhuoying proposed returning to the Liang Family first to dispatch clan members dedicated to connecting with the Lin Family.
On the Lin Family's side, Lin Xingyuan would take full charge.
After finalizing these, Liang Zhuoying, under Lin Tianming's arrangement, stayed at the Lin Family Clan Grounds for a few days to rest.
Afterwards, he left the Lin Family, returned to the Liang Family to report, and facilitated the territory transfer process.
