Gu Tianming said without wasting any time, "Elder Gu, I am here for the Master Lin.""Master Lin? Is he the newly advanced Immortal Ranking Elder? " Gu Bei"s expressionless eyes shone brightly for the first time.
"That"s right. Tianming humbly requests that Elder Gu come out of his mountains to uphold justice for our Gu family." Gu Tianming cupped his fists and bowed.
"Fair?" Gu Bei sighed softly, a trace of disappointment flas.h.i.+ng past his eyes: "I owed your Gu family a promise from the start, so there"s no harm.""The entire capital, regardless of whether it is the large or small clans, knows that our Qing Yun and the Dong Clan"s eldest daughter, Dong Yaqing, have been childhood friends. But because of this Master Lin"s sudden appearance, our Gu family has become a joke that everyone knows about. "
"This junior humbly requests Elder Gu to uphold justice for my Gu family."Gu Tianming cupped his fists once again, and bowed deeply.
The news of Dong Yaqing holding a Engagement party with Lin Feng had spread throughout the capital. There was no need to elaborate too much on this matter. He believed that Gu Bei was definitely aware of this in his heart."Alright, I agree. Take this written challenge to the Lin Family and hand it over to that Master Lin." Gu Bei took out a written challenge, his fingers slightly curled as it came out and directly fell onto Gu Tianming"s palm.
"Thank you, Elder Gu." Gu Tianming received the written challenge with both hands, his face filled with excitement.
… ….Swallow Forest Clan.
"Shulan, Little Feng, welcome home." Lin Zhenxiong stood up and warmly welcomed him.Ever since Lin Feng fought with Mo Yunhai, he had always wanted Lin Feng to return to the Lin Family. This kind of thought had grown stronger after experiencing the Island Nation"s War, especially after the war in Myanmar.
Now it was better, even though there had been some awkwardness, in the end, Lin Feng was still allowed to return to the Lin Family.
"Home, where is home?" Lin Feng sneered.
"Of course it"s this Lin Family Mansion." He did not display the slightest hint of displeasure, and continued smiling faintly, "Shulan is Jin Qiu"s wife and you are Jin Qiu"s son. You are naturally a member of my Lin Family.""If I wasn"t Master Hua Xialin, would you still say that?" Lin Feng was straightforward, his tone cold.
"Hua!"
The Lin Family clansmen were in an uproar, they never would have thought that Lin Feng would actually be so direct.
This was a question that didn"t need to be asked. If he didn"t have the ident.i.ty of a Master Lin, even if he personally visited the Lin Family, it would be impossible for him to step half a step into this Lin Family Mansion, let alone invite them."Of course!" Lin Zhenxiong"s expression instantly turned into one of extreme embarra.s.sment, but he quickly regained his composure, "You are members of the Lin Family, this has nothing to do with your background. It is all due to the blood ties flowing through our bodies."
"What a close blood relation!" Lin Feng laughed coldly, and did not continue speaking.
… ….
With the end of the Qingming Ancestor"s ceremony, Lin Zhenxiong took the opportunity of the lunch to excitedly announce:"Jin Qiu, Shulan, I chose a marriage for Feng. The lady is Dong Yaqing, the eldest lady of the Dong Clan and is from one of the Five Great Clans."
"Feng, this Dong Yaqing is extraordinary. Not only is she regarded as one of the five great beauties of the capital, she is also known as one of the three great talented girls in the capital."
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the marriage that grandfather chose for you? "
His thinking was simple, facing Dong Yaqing, no youngster could resist his charm.
"Not satisfied, very unsatisfied." Lin Feng"s face was cold as he enunciated each word slowly."Little Feng, Grandfather promises that after you meet Dong Yaqing, you won"t say such things." Lin Zhenxiong continued with a smile.
"It"s the same whether you see her or not." Lin Feng played it down.
He was one of the five great beauties of the capital, the big miss of the Dong Clan, Dong Yaqing. If it were him from his previous life, he would naturally agree without hesitation. However, after a thousand years of cultivation, he was no longer that foppish and hedonistic Lin Clan young master.In the nine heavens, countless talented and beautiful fairies were unable to strike at his heart that was as firm as a meteorite, let alone a mere Dong Yaqing. In his heart, apart from Zhang Wanrong and Xu Ruoyun, there was no one else who could take her as a woman in this lifetime and for all lifetimes.
"Feng, how can you talk to your grandfather like this? For your marriage, your grandfather did his best. " Wu Xiu Mei seemed to have forgotten the fear in her heart and forget about Lin Feng"s ident.i.ty as she scolded him harshly.
In her heart, from the moment she had returned to the bottom of the Yan Gui Mountain and invited Feng Shulan onto the palanquin, she had been stifling a wave of grievance. She did not care about Lin Feng"s ident.i.ty, nor did she care about the future of the Lin Family. She only wanted to turn Lin Feng and Lin Zhenxiong against each other and never have anything to do with the Lin Family again.
"Shut up, there"s no place for you to interrupt when I"m talking with Feng Er." Before Lin Feng could speak, Lin Zhenxiong already berated him first.
"Dad, look at his att.i.tude towards you …" Wu Xiumei said in a low voice. As soon as she said those words, she was interrupted by Lin Zhenxiong in an icy tone. "If you dare to say anymore, get out!"Wu Xiumei opened and closed her mouth a few times, but she didn"t say anything in the end. She just kept quiet and didn"t dare to say anything anymore.
"There"s no need to say any more nonsense. I don"t want to say any more."
"Throw Wu Xiumei out of the Lin Clan. The grudge between your Lin Clan and I will be written off immediately. "Otherwise, I can guarantee that from today onwards, the Lin Clan will no longer be part of the capital"s five great clans."
"Don"t worry, in order to prevent Mother from feeling sad, I won"t kill you. Furthermore, even though I am unwilling to admit the relations.h.i.+p between us, but that kind of blood relations.h.i.+p is still unbreakable. So, even I, Lin Feng am not capable of such a thing. "
The reason why he agreed to return to the capital with his mother was so that he could seek justice for his mother.He would take back all the humiliation that his mother had suffered at the Lin Clan in his previous life. Not only would he expel Wu Xiumei from the Lin Clan, he would also expel this malicious woman from the Lin Clan"s doorstep to the foot of the mountain, just like how she had treated her mother all those years ago.
"Feng, expelling Wu Xiumei from the Lin Family is not a problem at all. However, you are still Jin Qiu"s son, a descendant of my Lin Family, so …" Lin Jinqiu did not care about expelling Wu Xiumei from the Lin Family. What he wanted was for Lin Feng to recognize his status as a descendant of the Lin Family.
"There"s no point in speaking any further." Lin Feng impatiently waved his hands: "I have already said what I should say, just like how Wu Xiumei chased my mother out of the Lin Clan, the grudge between your Lin Clan and I, has been completely wiped out."
Lin Zhenxiong"s face was stiff. He really wanted to insist on saying something, but in the end, he chose to give up. Lin Feng"s att.i.tude was extremely resolute. He knew that no matter what he said, things would never change the slightest.
Regret!
"expel Wu Xiumei from the Lin Clan!"Wu Xiumei panicked and fell to her knees.
"Dad, you can"t do that."
"Yaohui, save me. I beg you, for the sake of husband and wife, please help me."Even though Wu Xiumei was begging desperately, she was still chased out of the Lin Family. Just like how Lin Feng"s mother was back then, she was chased from the top of the mountain all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
He was reaping what he sowed.
Everything was just her own fault!
… ….
Just as Wu Xiumei was expelled from the Lin Family, Gu Tianming came to the Lin Family with a complacent look on his face.
"Gu Tianming? What are you doing here? " Lin Zhenxiong strode forward."What is it? Of course it"s to deliver the written challenge. " Gu Tianming laughed complacently: "Lin Zhenxiong, do you think you can do whatever you want just because your Lin Family got back a Immortal Ranking Zhi Zun? What a joke! Don"t forget the relations.h.i.+p between our Gu Family and the Dragon Guardian Race. "
"This is the written challenge from the Dragon Guardian Clan"s Grand Elder Gu Bei. When your family"s Master Lin comes back from his arranged battle with the Island Nation"s Supreme Elder Zuotong Chimu, Elder Gu will meet your family"s Master Lin at the Phoenix Nest Mountain."
As Gu Tianming spoke, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze to Lin Feng.
"Master Lin, I have already sent Elder Gu"s written challenge, please accept it."
"Zhi Zun, Immortal Ranking"s number one. I look forward to the battle with Elder Gu." Lin Feng slowly crooked her finger, and the written challenge flew straight to her palms: "Go back and tell Elder Gu that once I take Zuotong Chimu"s head, and the four others" souls return, we will decide who is stronger on the summit of the Phoenix Nest Mountain.""Farewell!" Gu Tianming left amid loud laughter.
