Lin Hu, who was sitting with his eyes closed, spat out a mouthful of impure air as he opened his eyes. He should have left by now that he had reached his destination, which was the Spirit Beast Mountain. Now that he had returned to Cloud City, he could finally relax a little.
"Finding Lin Shan and saving his daughter is already my greatest ability."
Jumping down from the sprout of the flying beast, he headed towards the Lin Clan Residence in Cloud City. He could feel the faintly discernible killing intent and temporarily did not reveal it.
The Cloud City was a place where killing people and seizing treasures existed. However, in the center of the city, these people definitely wouldn't act against them. Hence, Lin Hu purposefully took a detour to a more remote area.
As expected, three people suddenly jumped out. Lin Hua turned his head to look at them calmly, "You've followed me for so long and finally came out?"
The three of them looked at Lin Hu in surprise, "Indeed, it is not just the servant disciples' cultivation. Since it is three against one, hand over your treasures."
Seeing the three of them covered in wounds from Spirit Beast Mountain, their battle prowess was significantly lower. Now that they were still thinking of stealing from him, they looked at the three of them as if they were idiots.
"What if I say no?"
The three of them looked at each other and were about to make their move when they suddenly stopped. They silently retreated a few steps back, as they didn't want to take any more actions to take Lin Hu's storage bag.
He did not give chase. He was not a bloodthirsty person, and since someone else had ran away, he should do his own business.
The Lin Clan Mansion was located to the north of Cloud City. With his running speed, it didn't take him long to arrive before the walls of the Lin Clan Estate.
The three great clans of Cloud City all owned city walls within Cloud City, which was also a way to show that their status was not ordinary within Cloud City. Although Lin Hu was currently dressed as a servant disciple of the Lin Family, the yearning in the eyes of mortals could still be clearly seen.
"Stop, who is it?
Lin Hu, who had stepped into the Lin Family's city walls, stopped and raised his head to look at the Lin Clan disciples standing above the Lin Clan. Usually, the guards in the Lin Clan's residence were the outer disciples and the Lin Clan's guards.
Lin Hu could tell that these people had a strong sense of vigilance in their eyes. After thinking about how the Lin Clan had been in a panic for the past few days, he felt relieved and took out the medallion for the Lin Clan's inner disciples.
Seeing this token, the Lin Clan disciples looked at each other for a moment before opening the city wall's gate and allowing Lin Yuan to enter.
The moment Lin Hu stepped into the Lin Clan, he saw a silhouette. This silhouette caused him to furrow his brows. Standing in front of him, it was none other than Lin Hua.
Lin Hua stood quietly in front of him, as if he was waiting specifically for his return, "How did this old fox know I was coming back?" After muttering to himself for a while, he suddenly thought of the three people who had followed him from Cloud City.
Lin Hu was now regretting that he did not kill the three rogue cultivators that had followed him, which had exposed his location in front of Lin Hua.
Lin Hu continued to walk forward as he secretly circulated his Three Saint Ruler Technique. If Lin Hua were to suddenly attack him, he would be on his guard.
The direction he was heading towards was precisely where Lin Hua was standing. He slowly walked over, and just like that, he secretly circulated the Three Saint Ruler Technique to the extreme.
He was betting that Lin Hua would not dare to attack him due to his clan's rules. Although Lin Nan Tian had joined the side of the Evil Soul Master, he wasn't sure if Lin Hua had joined.
Seeing Lin Hu slowly walk past him, Lin Hua's hands trembled for a moment before finally relaxing. He still didn't make a move as he watched Lin Hu's back recede into the distance.
Leaving the main entrance of the Lin Clan's residence, Lin Hu headed in Lin Shan's direction. The reason he had returned to the Lin Clan's residence was so that he could inform Lin Shan about his trip to the Spiritual Beast Mountain.
"I saw the Patriarch take out the letter."
Outside the main hall of the Lin Clan, two core disciples loudly shouted at the sight of Lin Yu, who was wearing the uniform of a servant disciple. After Lin Zhu took out the medallion for the inner disciples, the two core disciples swallowed their saliva.
"Since you are the senior brother of the inner court, there is no need for letters. Please enter."
When Lin Hu left, the two core disciples who were guarding the gate looked at each other, "It looks a little familiar?"
Another Core Disciple recalled, "The Clan's number one, Senior Brother Lin Hua. He was also the Spirit Beast Mountain's inner disciple who saved Senior Sister Lin Caixuan."
Seeing Lin Hua walk in, the two core disciples revealed looks of admiration and worship on their faces. Of course, they didn't know anything about Lin Hua.
The main hall opened. At this moment, all of the Lin Clan's elders were seated inside. The head of the hall was the Lin Clan's clan head, Lin Shan.
"Disciple Lin Hu greets the clan head and the elders of the Lin Clan."
Lin Chu who entered the door was surrounded by many gazes, neither servile nor overbearing. At this moment, Lin Shan laughed out loud, "Good, as expected of a hero that came from a young man. You've done a great service in this trip to Spirit Beast Mountain."
Lin Hu was puzzled. Was this a huge contribution? Seemingly having nothing to do with him, and seeing the doubt in Lin Hu's eyes, Lin Shan burst out in laughter once more.
"Little friend, please save my daughter and a few other talents from the Lin Family. They will return to the Lin Family Estate and remain alone at the Spirit Beast Mountain to continue investigating the disciples of the Lin Family who have joined the black-clothed camp. Just this point alone is a great achievement."
Lin Hua was speechless. Staying in Spirit Beast Mountain was entirely due to his purple pupils, and it really had nothing to do with the safety of the Lin Family. He did not know why he did not have any feelings for this Lin Family, all he had was a trace of nostalgia.
"How many martial energy stones does the clan leader give us?"
He felt that Lin Shan was currently extremely happy, so he decided to be more direct. After hearing Lin Hu's reply, the elders turned to look at him with looks of dissatisfaction, as well as surprise, while at the same time, there was also admiration in their eyes.
He was straightforward and did not think too much about it. It was obvious that he was a teenager who did not have any schemes in mind.
Lin Shan was stunned for a moment before he threw it out from his storage bag, "There are five thousand martial energy stones in here. Thank you for saving my daughter's life this time."
Lin Hu, who received the storage pouch, nodded his head in joy and waved his hand, "Clan leader is serious now, it's no big deal."
Lin Shan's eyebrows were slightly raised. After which, he smiled bitterly as he shook his head, "I have already given you the Lin Hua reward. Next, I hope that you will remember this matter."
Lin Hu withdrew his mischievous grin and seriously looked at Lin Shan. The next few words he said caused him to ponder for quite some time.
"I hope that you will always be careful in the Lin Family."
With just a few words, Lin Hua remembered all of them in his heart. Could it be that Lin Shan had already discovered the identity of the black-clothed figure from the Lin Clan Manor? However, why would the clan head not dare to make a move?
These forest buds alone were enough to ponder for a very long time. Bringing these thoughts along with them, he walked out of the grand hall and headed towards the mountains.
