Traveling to the future, the story with the orc king

Without hesitation, Lin Ziyu quickly produced a top-grade detoxification pill and placed it into his father's mouth, gently lifting his chin to help him swallow it. Then, Lin Ziyu channeled his own spiritual energy, carefully injecting it into his father's body, guiding the medicinal power through his meridians, accelerating its effectiveness.

After a while, Lin Cheng finally opened his eyes, which had been tightly shut. Though his gaze remained somewhat weak, the relief it revealed was palpable. With difficulty, he turned his head, his gaze resting on Lin Ziyu with tenderness and love, as if he wanted to imprint his son's image deeply in his heart. In that moment, father and son locked eyes, their deep affection conveyed without words.

Lin Ziyu shouted with joy: "Father..."

Long Yan also shouted happily: "General Lin..."

Steward Lin looked at Lin Cheng, who had just woken up in bed, with a look of surprise on his face. His voice trembled slightly with excitement as he shouted, "Master...you're awake!"

Lin Cheng blinked slowly, looked at Lin Ziyu, Long Yan, and Steward Lin, and asked in a weak and hoarse voice, "Ziyu, Prince Long, why are you here?"

Lin Ziyu walked to the bedside, held his father's slightly pale hand tightly, his eyes full of concern, and replied: "Father, I haven't been able to contact you, and I'm really worried. So I came to Yuecheng to visit you with Brother Yan." As he spoke, he took out an exquisite jade bottle from the space and opened it, revealing the Five Elements Elixir emitting colorful light.

Lin Ziyu handed the Five Elements Elixir to his father and said softly, "Father, your body has not yet fully recovered. Please take this pill quickly. It will help you recover as soon as possible."

Lin Cheng looked at the Five Elements Elixir before him, his eyes filled with emotion. He shook his head and said, "Ziyu, this elixir is too precious. You should keep it for yourself." Lin Ziyu resolutely pushed the elixir forward, "Father, your health is the most important thing. Don't refuse it." Long Yan, standing by, also advised, "General Lin, Ziyu is so filial. Please take it. I made this elixir myself."

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Zi Yu is the best." After that, he took the Five Elements Elixir.

Instantly, a gentle force slowly spread through his body, activating the dissipated spiritual energy. The spiritual energy that had almost disappeared gradually became more powerful. Lin Cheng closed his eyes and slowly absorbed the medicinal power of the elixir. His complexion gradually improved.

Lin Ziyu wanted to know what was happening in Yuecheng now, so he turned around and asked, "Butler Lin, is there anyone else in Yuecheng now?"

"Young Master, there are not many people left in Yuecheng. If there are any, they may be those infected by insects and are all locked up in the underground city." Butler Lin said.

Lin Ziyu frowned and asked, "Butler Lin, what's going on in Yuecheng now? Brother Yan's three guards have been taken away."

"Young Master, wait, let me ask..." Steward Lin said. His eyes began to flash red, and after a quarter of an hour, Steward Lin said, "Young Master, they were captured by the people who occupied Yuecheng and are now imprisoned in the underground city."

Lin Ziyu looked at Long Yan and said, "Brother Yan, wait until father wakes up, and then we'll go to the underground city together."

Long Yan nodded, "Okay."

Not long after, Lin Cheng finished absorbing the spiritual power in the pill, slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were vigorous, and he said: "I heard what you just said. Without further ado, let's set off for the dungeon now." After saying that, he stood up and staggered.

Lin Ziyu stepped forward and supported him. He said, "You just recovered and need to rest. Brother Yan and I will go and investigate."

Lin Cheng said in a serious tone, leaving no room for refusal: "Let Butler Lin go with you."

Lin Ziyu thought: He was not familiar with the underground city. If he asked Butler Lin to follow them, he would be worried about his father. Lin Ziyu showed a hesitant expression.

At this time, Steward Lin, who was standing next to him, said, "Young Master, do you still have any energy stones?"

Lin Ziyu replied: "Yes."

Butler Lin turned around and walked to a door and pushed it open, revealing people standing in neat rows inside. There were at least a hundred of them.

Lin Ziyu's eyes widened, his gaze fixed on the four figures in front of him. They stood majestically, led by none other than the captains of his father's personal guard—Lin Feng, Lin Yu, Lin Lei, and Lin Dian!

Lin Ziyu turned to look at Butler Lin beside him with a puzzled look on his face and asked, "Why...could they be like this?"

Steward Lin quickly responded, "Young Master, don't panic. They are all puppet crystal robots, just like me. As long as they have enough energy supply, they can quickly recover as before."

After hearing this explanation, Lin Ziyu felt relieved and nodded slightly to show his understanding. He was not stingy with energy stones, after all, his space was full of them. Without hesitation, he reached into the space and after a few moments of searching, he pulled out a bag full of energy stones that shone brightly.

Lin Ziyu handed the heavy bag to Butler Lin, who quickly stretched out his hands to take it. When he felt the weight of the bag, he couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and couldn't help but look up at the young master in front of him again.

After activating them, Lin Feng, Lin Yu and half of the puppet crystal people were left to guard their father Lin Cheng.

Steward Lin led the remaining half of the puppet crystal people, followed Lin Ziyu and Long Yan out of the basement, passed through the underground passage of the general's mansion, and came to a mysterious space in the underground city.

Lin Ziyu asked in surprise, "Butler Lin, where exactly is this place?" He widened his eyes and looked around curiously.

Steward Lin replied respectfully, "Young Master, this is where the master specifically instructed me to bring you. This is the underground treasure house built by the renowned Nangong family a hundred years ago. Furthermore, this treasure house is extremely special, and only those with the pure blood of the Nangong family can open it. Back then, your mother only successfully opened one of the treasure houses, but it was with the five thousand Kuijing people she obtained from that vault, coupled with the master's wise leadership, that they jointly created the present-day Yuecheng!"

After hearing Steward Lin's words, Lin Ziyu felt a surge of shock, a wave of indescribable emotion. Long Yan, standing nearby, was also stunned. He couldn't wait to ask, "Steward Lin, could the Nangong family you just mentioned be the one renowned for its unparalleled weapon-refining techniques, yet mysteriously vanished a hundred years ago?"

Steward Lin nodded slightly in agreement and responded, "Indeed, Your Highness Crown Prince Long is absolutely right."

Seeing Long Yan's reaction, Lin Ziyu couldn't help but feel puzzled, so he turned to him and asked, "Brother Yan, is the Nangong family really so famous?"

Long Yan took a deep breath, collected himself, and then explained, "Zi Yu, you don't know that the crystal puppets, mecha warriors, and mechanical beasts created by the Nangong family were all powerful weapons against the terrifying beast tide! Because of this, they were at the peak of their power at the time, attracting the attention and respect of the world!"

After hearing this, Lin Ziyu's eyes were full of amazement, "So that's how it is. Then how could such a powerful family suddenly disappear?" Long Yan shook his head, also looking confused.

Steward Lin sighed and slowly said, "The Nangong family disappeared during a special beast tide. That time, only the Nangong family was affected by the beast tide, and the entire city and the Nangong family perished in the violent beast tide. After that, there was no Nangong family in the world until your mother appeared."

Lin Ziyu asked: "Butler Lin, are you saying that I have the blood of the Nangong family in my body?"

Steward Lin smiled and said, "Young Master is intelligent. The master ordered me to bring you here. If you can really open the treasure house, perhaps you can save Yuecheng from danger."

Lin Ziyu clenched his fists, his eyes firm. "Then let's try it now." He slowly walked towards the tightly closed door of the treasure house, gently placed his hand on it, and a strange feeling came over him. Suddenly, a faint light came from the door, spreading along his palm, and then the door slowly opened.
