Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 1166 - 211: Succession

"Uncles, you must be here to see Uncle Tan, right? Just in time, Uncle Tan just finished his meal and is awake, please come in."

Tan Yunlong watched his son leave, and the leaders who came in after said one by one:

"Your nephew is great, very spirited and polite."

...

The closer the heart is to home, the faster it beats.

Lin Shuyou took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, took another deep breath, and exhaled again...

Although the branches don't separate from the temple, everything remains the same in terms of structure, but what Lin Shuyou needs to do this time feels no less than a new rite of passage.

Walking out of the alley, climbing up the steps, entering the temple gate.

"Ah You is back."

"Ah You, has your school given you another holiday?"

The senior brothers and uncles in the temple warmly greeted Lin Shuyou. During his last return for the New Year, Lin Shuyou showed a high level of coordination with the White Crane Child, combined with his early reputation as a Divination Child genius, it's likely the next temple master will once again bear the surname Lin.

Lin Shuyou returned the greetings one by one, found out that his grandfather and master were not in the temple but had gone to a meeting, so he looked around and called a junior brother to inform them of his return.

Soon, Lin Shuyou entered the main hall.

Upon entering, he saw the White Crane Child among the numerous official gods' statues, placed separately in a row.

Since the craftsmen repairing the neighboring official general head temple ended up in the hospital, no skillful master was nearby to take on this repair work.

The child's statue remained aged and worn.

"Ha, Child, I didn't expect your movements to be faster than mine."

Lin Shuyou tossed his backpack up and jumped onto the row to sit, where the child's statue was placed, spacious indeed.

Leaning against the child's statue, Lin Shuyou's gaze swept over the other official gods in the main hall.

He and Brother Bin both changed their tickets, so after Brother Xiao Yuan and the others boarded first, he and Brother Bin spent quite some time sitting in the lounge.

Brother Bin told him, some things that Brother Xiao Yuan didn't mention, but we must first consider in advance.

For instance, Lin Shuyou's foundation within the team is his official general status. He now possesses a tree, but wouldn't he want a forest, just like his surname?

Brother Bin also said, once Nantong Daoist Field stands tall, whoever contributes more to it will wield greater influence, won't they?

In terms of numbers, who can compare to you?

She, Yin Meng, may someday place the statue of Emperor Fengdu, but you could place a group of official gods, without a flinch!

Lin Shuyou held some reservations about a group of official gods confronting Emperor Fengdu.

But he agreed with Brother Bin, he had a good relationship with the child, but in this world, one must rely on power.

It was during this conversation in the lounge that Ah You didn't activate the vertical pupils; otherwise, if the White Crane Child heard this, the first thing he might do the next time Divination descended would be to kill Tan Wenbin.

Lin Shuyou's gaze gradually landed on Zeng and Sun.

Zeng and Sun were the most powerful and also the most fiercely tempered among the official gods.

To Brother Xiao Yuan, their strength is an advantage; their fierceness is not considered a disadvantage.

Ah You believed Brother Xiao Yuan could handle them, after all, initially, the child liked to hold its head high with pride, but now it has become increasingly amiable.

Anyway, he needed to establish branches; placing one child is placing them, placing two Zeng and Sun is the same.

Once Brother Xiao Yuan tames...

Once Brother Xiao Yuan and they have a smooth relationship, he could conveniently move them to Nantong Daoist Field, avoiding another ceremony run upon returning.

Lin Shuyou didn't consider his actions as betrayal; as Brother Bin said, this is called "divine personnel secondment."

The stronger he became, the stronger the Lord of Yin, and thus the official general system became stronger, he was promoting the official general system!

Lin Shuyou was contemplating his grand plan when Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen rushed in.

If it was simply the grandson (disciple) returning, they wouldn't be so urgent, but they knew Ah You came back under the orders of the great one, to bring back their will.

Thus, upon discovering Lin Shuyou sitting on the altar, neither of them got angry as in the past.

Lin Shuyou jumped off the altar, clapped his hands, and envisioned Brother Bin's set of procedures.

Brother Bin said if he followed it, establishing branches would naturally come to fruition, his master and grandfather would not oppose, only be incredibly delighted.

"Ahem, ahem..."

Lin Shuyou remembered Brother Bin's teaching, didn't rush to call them, but cleared his throat first.

Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen looked at each other, thinking: has this day finally arrived?

Lin Shuyou drew out a piece of talisman paper, flicked it forward, the talisman paper crossed the candles ahead and was set aflame, turning to ash.

"In the name of the Dragon King's Order..."

Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen exchanged glances again, seeing excitement and joy in each other's eyes:

This day has truly come!

Lin Shuyou had just begun to speak, when suddenly he saw his grandfather's face showing shame, and his master's face filled with anger.

Then, his grandfather Lin Fu'an pointed at him, cursed: "You ungrateful beast, I have no grandson like you!"

Chen Shoumen beat his chest and stomped his feet: "Oh heavens, how did I teach such a disciple, I am ashamed for my teachings, ashamed for the Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva!"

Eh?

Lin Shuyou was dumbfounded, he just wanted to establish branches, why did his master and grandfather react so strongly?

Not to mention that branches don't separate from the temple, even if he indeed wanted to separate and build his own temple, it's a proud and good deed, his master and grandfather should be patting his shoulder proudly, saying how he finally grew up, could expand the official general.

Lin Fu'an: "Oh, my legacy, my foundation! Beast, I am irreconcilable with you!"

Chen Shoumen: "What a shame, my sect, my lineage! Outlawed disciple, there's no friendship between us anymore!"

Lin Shuyou was puzzled, why were his grandfather and master reacting so strongly, and in such unison?

Lin Fu'an wailed, then shook his hand and sighed: "Enough, the situation demands it, I can't help it, need to suffer humiliation and bear the burden, choose to preserve my legacy."

Chen Shoumen grieved: "Fine, they hold the power, I am just the meat on the chopping block, as the temple master, I must be responsible for all living beings in the temple, have to surrender."

They finished, then both knelt before Lin Shuyou.

Lin Shuyou was startled, jumped back several steps, nervously avoiding them, wondering what madness his master and grandfather were up to!

Lin Fu'an and Chen Shoumen said in unison:

"As per the Dragon King's Order, from today on, our temple belongs to the Dragon King's Court!"

Lin Shuyou: "..."
