Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ernest Lin didn’t know why her Father had become like this.
After all, the old man had always doted on her.
One had to know when Ernest Lin had returned from her reincarnation, the old man had risked being chased out by the Heavenly Emperor and being bullied just to ask the Heavenly Emperor for the peach of immortality for her.
But now, just because of a few words, he had used his aura to suppress her, forcing her to leave quickly.
At this moment, in comparison to the old man’s doting on her previously, Ernest Lin could feel the stark difference that was like Heaven and Earth.
She was once again like a little girl and was at a loss.

At this moment, Emest Lin couldn’t just shed all pretense of cordiality with her Father.
Her first thought was to investigate the matter herself.
“Emest Lin, can you tell me about your cultivation method?” Suddenly, the old man’s voice entered Ernest Lin’s ears.
The old man’s eyes were bloodshot. Back then, he had promised Lin Ming that he wouldn’t ask for the cultivation method.
After all, the cultivation method could only help one person.
However, now that the old man’s cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds, it was as if he had gone mad.
He would do anything for the growth of his strength.
And now, he actually had his eyes on his daughter whom he had always doted on.
“Father, I really can’t tell you about the cultivation method. Back then, I did make an oath of faith,” Ernest Lin shook her head and said.
Ernest Lin would never give the cultivation method to her Father because he just didn’t seem normal now.
“Not even me?” An indescribable emotion flashed through her Father’s eyes.
“Tm sorry, Father,” Ernest Lin lowered her head, wanting to leave.
“Emest Lin, you just need to tell me a few key points. This won’t count as you breaking your promise and you won’t have to worry about the backlash from breaking the oath of faith,” The old man stopped Ernest Lin from behind and said.
“Even a bit is a no,” Ernest Lin said with some disappointment.
How had her Father become like this?
For the sake of his advancement in strength, he didn’t hesitate to let her face the backlash of the oath of faith!
“Hmph!” The old man snorted coldly and left.
If it wasn’t because of the relationship between Ernest Lin and him, he might have already made a move.
“This!” At this moment, the old man appeared in the temple, his brows tightly knitted.
He had also realized that he was having difficulty controlling himself now.
However, he knew that if he wanted to grow his power, he would have to give something up in exchange.
“Thope that I can obtain the strongest power before my consciousness completely disappears,” The old man closed his eyes and said.
He knew that if he could obtain the strongest power, he could naturally suppress his inner demon.
On the other hand, if he took a wrong step, he would be completely doomed.
However, right now, he was being suppressed by the Heavenly Emperor’s faction in every aspect.
That was why the idea of becoming the strongest had been born in his mind even if he had to become a demon.
“Right now, Emest Lin is the biggest stumbling block,” The old man sighed.
“Lin Ming, who is behind Ernest Lin, is the biggest threat,” When the old man thought of Lin Ming, he felt even more furious.
If Lin Ming had not appeared, he could have used his power to put Ernest Lin under house arrest and complete his matters.
However, because of Lin Ming, if he put Ernest Lin under house arrest, Lin Ming would be the first to appear.
Although his power was growing rapidly, he knew that he was no match for Lin Ming.
Therefore, at this time, besides guarding against Ernest Lin, the most important person he had to guard against was Lin Ming.
The point now was that Ernest Lin had already discovered some clues. She wasn’t known as the Goddess of Wisdom for nothing. Other than having the most accurate observation ability, if she had doubts, she would definitely be able to find out the truth.
However, the old man knew that he couldn’t become the strongest before Ernest Lin found out the truth if he let her be.
He still needed time and preparation.
And now, he couldn’t control his consciousness easily, which also made it easy for him to expose himself in front of Ernest Lin.
“Ernest Lin!” The old man’s voice echoed in the new God faction.
Ernest Lin, who was in the middle of the investigation, frowned but still went to the temple.
“Emest Lin, I have something I need someone to help me with. I don’t trust anyone else, so I need you to help me,” The old man looked at Ernest Lin and said.
“What is it?” Ernest Lin frowned and asked.
“My statue was shattered in the world of Neptune. It was caused by someone from the new God faction. Please help me go and take a look,” The old man said.
“Father, I have something to do. I’m afraid I can’t agree to your request,” Ernest Lin sighed and said, “Besides, Father, you have so many experts under you. Any one of them can help you solve this problem.”
The old man’s intention to send her away was too obvious.
“Well, isn’t this because I’m worried too?” The old man sighed and said, “This is our family’s matter after all. We can’t expose our family’s dirty laundry. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Right, Lin Ming is considered one of us. How about letting Lin Ming go?” Ernest Lin said.
“Lin Ming?” When the old man heard Ernest Lin’s words, he was slightly taken aback.
He hadn’t expected Ernest Lin to mention Lin Ming at this time.
Not only had she mentioned it, but she had even suggested to let Lin Ming go to the other world to help him investigate this matter.
This made the old man extremely excited.
Ernest Lin was only a very small part of the reason why he was so hesitant in doing anything now.
The most important part of the reason was the man behind Ernest Lin, Lin Ming!
‘As long as Lin Ming was not by Ernest Lin’s side, he would be able to do many things with ease.
“But, is Lin Ming willing to help us with this?” The old man asked Ernest Lin.
If Lin Ming would go, that would be the best.
“As long as I ask, of course he’s willing,” Ernest Lin nodded and promised.
