C30 Annual Meeting of the Lin Family
C30 Annual Meeting of the Lin Family
"Lin Feng has returned. I wonder how was his cultivation now."
"Hoho, he has come back, so what? He will definitely be shamed at the annual gathering. Right now, Lin Badao’s two children are extremely powerful. No matter how strong Lin Feng is, he is only at the seventh level of the Qi Martial State. How could he be their match?"
"That's true. Although this trash defeated Lin Yun last time, how could Lin Yun be comparable to the genius disciples of the Lin Family? If I were him, then I would hide in the sect and not come out."
Many people started a private discussion, and most of them just secretly ridiculed Lin Feng. After all, Lin Feng was the young master of the Lin Family, though he was just trash.
At this moment, Lin Feng had already returned to his residence. The courtyard wasn't very large, but it was extremely clean. Only Lin Feng and his father, Lin Hai, lived there.
"Father." Arriving at Lin Hai's room, Lin Feng spoke as he saw his father painting.
"Little Feng, you're back." Lin Hai raised his head and put away the painting. A warm smile appeared between his brows.
"Mm. It's going to be the annual gathering in seven days. I've deliberately rushed back to attend." Lin Feng glanced at the painting put away by Lin Hai. In his memories, Lin Hai's love for peace and quiet seemed to be related to his love for painting and he did not like to be disturbed. However, Lin Feng had never seen Lin Hai's paintings before.
"Little Feng, you don't have to participate in this year's annual gathering. Just let them create disturbances by themselves." Lin Hai shook his head and said with a smile.
"Father, why is that?"
"Hehe, for this year's annual gathering, they are all here for us. I do not care about them, but you better be careful, Little Feng." Lin Hai sighed. The current Lin Family had long since changed, and it was no longer peaceful. His two brothers, some cousins, and even several elders had already started to plan. Perhaps they were planning to force him to abdicate at this year's annual gathering.
"Don't worry, Father. I don't care." Lin Feng shook his head. Right now, his cultivation was already at the ninth level of the Qi Martial Stage. Even if those people wanted to fight against him at the annual gathering, they would need to have that strength.
"Hmm?" Lin Hai looked at his son in surprise. Upon seeing Lin Feng's confident gaze, he could not help but laugh, "Haha, I have underestimated my son. Well, let’s see how they are going to create disturbances. They have to show some strength if they want my place.”
"However, Little Feng, you should still be careful during the annual gathering. It's said that Lin Qian has already broken through to the Spiritual Martial Stage."
"It's not just rumour. She has indeed broken through to the Spiritual Martial Stage. However, it won't be that easy for her to hurt me." A cold light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes. In order to take his life, Lin Qian had actually brought others to the Cloud Sea Sect to catch him. And before leaving, she had threatened to meet him again at the annual gathering. Now that the annual gathering was near, he wanted to see how Lin Qian would deal with him.
"Father, I'll go cultivate first. Wake me up on the day of the annual gathering." Lin Feng said his goodbyes. Although his cultivation was not weak, the possessor of the Ice and Fire Homologous Martial Soul, Lin Qian, was not that easy to deal with. It was better for him to raise his cultivation a little more.
At this moment, outside of the manor of the Lin Family, three Flaming Horses had brought a hurricane with them. On the Flaming Horse in the middle, Lin Qian was dressed in a fiery red phoenix tail robe, which made her extremely noble. Besides, the cold temperament on her body make people dare not to profane. She was so superior.
"Your Majesty." The guards of the Lin Family respectfully greeted her. Compared to treating Lin Feng, they were several times more courteous. They did not even dare to look straight at Lin Qian, whose mere aura was enough to make them feel inferior.
Lin Qian didn't even glance at them as she directly entered the Lin manor on her Flaming Horse. She was as arrogant as a princess, and the two people dressed in the Bright Moon Sect attire followed closely behind her into the manor.
"Your Majesty is indeed different. No matter it is in terms of temperament or beauty, she is better than before. The top one of our Lin Family is definitely your Majesty." A guard lamented after Lin Qian left.
"Of course, an expert at the Spiritual Martial Stage is so powerful. Your Majesty is only sixteen, and her future is limitless. That trash young master is nothing compared to her. Even your Majesty's friends are formidable, who are elites of the Bright Moon Sect." In their eyes, Lin Feng did not even have the qualifications to compare himself to Lin Qian. Lin Qian was the bright moon in the sky, while Lin Feng was a firefly on the ground, who would never be brighter than Lin Qian. And Lin Feng was doomed to look up to her.
The arrival of Lin Qian and the two disciples from Bright Moon Sect instantly created a storm in the Lin Family. Compared to Lin Feng's arrival, it was much more of a commotion. Some elders and members of the Lin Family all went to the courtyard of Lin Badao to greet them. Lin Qian's future was limitless, and the future of the Lin Family could not be comparable to it.
Therefore, many members of the Lin Family were willing to do personal favors in order to help Lin Badao become the next patriarch of the Lin Family. In this way, when Lin Qian gained power and the Lin Family gained glory in the future, those who helped Lin Badao gain his position would naturally gain benefits as well.
Compared to the liveliness here, the place where Lin Feng resided appeared somewhat desolate. However, Lin Qian did not forget about Lin Feng. Her eyes seemed to pass through layers upon layers of walls as they landed on Lin Feng's courtyard. A cold glint flashed across them.
"This time, I will definitely teach you a lesson." Lin Qian's heart turned cold.
Two days later, Lin Hong, Lin Badao’s eldest son also came back. Lin Hong was cultivating in the Snow Shadow Villa. Although the Snow Shadow Villa was not a sect, their strength was not any weaker than the Cloud Sea Sect and they were extremely famous in the Snow Moon Kingdom. Furthermore, the Snow Shadow Villa only accepted the Ice and Snow Martial Soul.
Lin Hong, who returned this time, also had a huge increase in cultivation and reached the peak of the ninth level of the Qi Martial Stage. He was just one step away from entering the Spiritual Martial Stage and greatly impacting the Lin Family. The current Lin Family seemed to be dominated by Lin Badao.
Apart from Lin Hong, several elders of the Lin Family and juniors from the other branches all returned. This caused the Lin Family to be totally lively, as it was near the annual gathering.
This was especially true in Lin Badao's residence. It was extremely crowded, as though Lin Badao was the patriarch of the Lin Family.
As for the courtyard that the true master of the Lin Family Lin Hai resided in, no one cared about it. It was extremely quiet.
Finally, the day of the annual gathering arrived, and everyone in the Lin Family felt a little excited in their hearts. Another year had passed, and they did not know how the cultivation of the Lin Family's younger generation was, nor did they know what level their children belonged to. Besides, would there be talented juniors standing out? All the answers would be revealed today.
For the upper echelons of the Lin Family, today was destined to be an extraordinary day. Three months ago, there were already people who wanted to make Lin Hai abdicate, but Lin Hai had forcefully intimidated everyone. Today, they were even more prepared. And all the people outside the Lin Family had already returned.
Lin Feng walked out of the room, raised his head and glanced at the rising sun before stretching his back.
To Lin Feng, he did not feel that there was anything different today. He did not care about the position of the Lin Family's patriarch because what he wanted was supreme martial tao. Only those with great strength could have the right to speak, and the position of the patriarch was just an empty title. If you were strong enough and unbeatable, no one would disobey you even you were not the patriarch.
Lin Hai knew that his father also didn’t care about these things. Lin Hai was not a person who was infatuated with power, or he would not live in such a calm and tranquil environment. If the Lin Family did not have any major events, he would not even appear, which allowed others to take advantage of it and weaken his influence constantly.
"Little Feng, you've finished cultivating." Lin Hai walked over, intending to wake Lin Feng up.
"Yes." Lin Feng nodded his head.
"Let's go." The two of them headed towards the Martial Arts Arena.
There were countless people in the Martial Arts Arena, and everyone had already arrived. The moment Lin Feng and Lin Hai arrived, many gazes instantly landed on them. These gazes contained different emotions.
"Lin Feng." Several cold gazes fell on Lin Feng. These gazes belonged to Lin Qian, Lin Yu, Lin Heng, whose cultivation was eliminated by Lin Feng, Lin Yun, and of course, Lin Feng's third uncle Lin Haoran. His one son Lin Yun had been humiliated by Lin Feng, and the cultivation of another son Lin Hen had been eliminated by Lin Feng. If anyone in the Lin Family hated Lin Feng and his father the most, that would be him.
Furthermore, Lin Haoran had even concealed the matter of Lin Heng’s cultivation being eliminated by Lin Feng, not letting anyone know. Firstly, he and Lin Heng could not afford to be disgraced. Secondly, he did not want to see the complacency of Lin Feng and his father.
