Chapter 60: How Could I Not Come to the Grand Banquet?
A bustling banquet was being held in Great Yan City!
The dark clouds that filled the sky dissipated. Great Yan City was brilliant and resplendent. Auspicious clouds rose, and flowing light flowed vast and mighty. Spiritual qi flowed as if it was corporeal. There were waves of clear and melodious immortal sounds between heaven and earth, like the crisp sound of silver bells!
Seeing the scene in front of them, many factions in Qi Mountain County were extremely surprised.
“So this is Ancestor Lin’s strength? He’s actually able to break through the pressure and seal of the Great Abyss’s master?”
“Isn’t this quite normal? No matter what, Ancestor Lin is still the ancestor of the Lin family. How can he survive without some strength? However, he definitely can’t compare to the master of the Great Abyss.”
There were also people who clicked their tongues and marveled at the Lin family’s generosity and wealth, “It’s indeed the number one family in Great Yan City! Just these things in front of us will burn up so many high-grade spirit stones. They’re simply too rich!”
“In my opinion, they probably know that keeping these spirit stones is useless, so they might as well just waste it all, right?”
“Do you want to guess how many families are willing to participate in the so-called month-old banquet?”
“I don’t think any responded. Who would dare to come now!”
Everyone whispered to each other. On a certain mountain peak, the black-robed Wang family used the situation to report to the Wang family.
The Wang family’s ancestor looked at these with the help of the flower in the mirror and immediately sneered.
“The master of the Great Abyss is about to come. I want to see how you can puff yourself up at your own cost!”
…
On the muddy and dark ground, a pitch-black abyss soared into the sky. The place that was enveloped by it was filled with terror and gloom.
There was only one city that emitted a peaceful light. It was especially eye-catching in the darkness.
Great Yan City had long been renovated by the Lin family disciples. The air could smell the gentle fragrance of flowers, and the temperature was rather warm and pleasant.
Faint sunlight scattered on the ground, illuminating Great Yan City in a faint golden color. All the surrounding darkness seemed to be a dream.
A grand banquet had already been prepared in the Lin family mansion, but as time passed, no faction or family clan came to attend.
The Lin family sat quietly without any anxiety or anxiety.
If someone with sharp minds came to take a look, they could discover that the people at this banquet had extremely high cultivation levels. Other than Lin Xuan, no juniors of the Lin family stayed here.
The people from the Lin family who stayed here waited quietly.
After a long time, the first family to come to the banquet arrived.
“I, Family Head Xuan, have led the elders of the Xuan family to Great Yan City to congratulate my grandson on his month-old birthday!”
A bright and happy voice spread throughout the entire Great Yan City.
In the next moment, several figures appeared outside the Lin family.
The person in the lead was tall and handsome. He looked to be in his forties. He wore a light blue robe and had a gorgeous crown that raised his white hair.
He also carried an immortal sword on his back. Brilliant light could be seen flowing on his clothes. He only appeared and countless domineering sword intents shot into the sky.
“Xuan Changlin greets Ancestor Lin.” The white-haired middle-aged man smiled and bowed to the Lin family at the end of the long street. His expression was calm and his words were ethereal.
Before the Lin family could send any news, a shout came from outside the house.
“Why is he here? It’s actually… it’s that old antique from the Xuan family, Xuan Changlin!”
“The old antique of the Xuan family is actually here. Why is he here? Is he crazy?”
The eyes of countless people from various factions immediately revealed shock. Some experienced and experienced elders immediately recognized the true identity of the white-haired middle-aged man in front of them!
Xuan Changlin! This was the true old antique of the Xuan family! He was the biological son of the Xuan family’s ancestor! When he was born, there were all kinds of phenomena accompanying him. He was once the strongest existence in the Xuan family!
As if hearing their doubts, Xuan Changlin turned his head and calmly said, “Why can’t I come here?”
“Xuan’er is the son of our Xuan family’s prodigy, Xuan Yu. He also has half the bloodline of our family. Xuan’er’s month-old banquet is being held. Why can’t I come here?”
Hearing Xuan Changlin’s question, everyone did not know what to say.
Attending the month-old banquet? Who the heck would believe this excuse!
Even if the Xuan family wanted to participate in the month-old banquet, they would not send the old antique of the Xuan family to participate personally, right?
Before long, these people sneered secretly.
“Haha, the Xuan family also wants to get involved in this mess. I really don’t know who gave you the courage!”
“Not to mention you, Xuan Changlin, even if your Xuan family’s ancestor comes here personally, he will not be able to change the outcome of the Lin family’s destruction! Your Xuan family and the Lin family combined are not a match for the Great Abyss’s master!”
“Who knows if he’s here to help! Perhaps he wants to wait for the Lin family to be destroyed and come over to fish for some benefits!”
The forces outside had different opinions. After they recovered from their shock, they were very disdainful. Even if the Lin family had the help of the Xuan family, they could not escape the outcome of their entire family being destroyed.
At this moment, in the Lin family, Lin Bao stood up with a smile. He walked opposite Xuan Changlin and hugged him tightly. “Xuan Changlin, it’s been a long time since we last met! If you came to congratulate me, did you bring anything good?”
Xuan Changlin only pointed at the immortal sword on his back, causing Lin Bao to be very disappointed, “Why are you giving us a sword as a gift?”
“I’m just afraid that something will happen to Xuan’er. I’m not here to deliver the sword. Don’t think too much,” Xuan Changlin said speechlessly.
Lin Bao was a little unhappy, “You sound really friendly by calling him Xuan’er. Be clear, that’s my Lin family’s Saint Child!”
Xuan Changlin was also unhappy, “It’s as if your Lin family can give birth out of thin air. Isn’t it half the bloodline of my Xuan family’s daughter!”
Lin Bao and Xuan Changlin looked at each other and laughed happily at the same time.
“Come!”
Lin Bao and Xuan Changlin walked into the banquet.
Not long after, the Lin family disciple in charge of reporting outside shouted excitedly,
“The Beichen Family of Qi County[1] has come to Great Yan City to congratulate Lin Xuan on his one-month-old birthday!”
The Northern Azure Province had a total of seven large counties. The Lin family could be considered to be one of the top families in Qi Mountain County. Not only did it have some influence in Qi Mountain County, but there were also many influential families in other places.
Other than the Xuan family, which was the first to visit, the Beichen family of Qi County also had a good relationship with the Lin family.
“The current head of the Beichen family, Beichen Zhan, has arrived at the Lin family!”
The middle-aged man leading the team from the Beichen family wore a golden armor. He took a large step forward and spoke in a tone that was neither humble nor overbearing. He was not afraid of the spreading evil fog and demonic miasma. As soon as he arrived, he bowed to Ancestor Lin and said with a very respectful tone.
Upon hearing this visit, the expressions of the many factions outside Great Yan City who were prepared to watch the show instantly collapsed.
There were actually two families who were willing to participate in the Lin family’s month-old banquet.
Were they stupid?
Did they not know that the Lin family was definitely doomed this time?
At this moment, everyone from the Lin family was very happy to see the Beichen family attending the banquet. Lin Hao even went up and hugged Beichen Zhan tightly.
“Congratulations to Brother Lin’s son for his one month birthday!”
“Hahaha! This child of mine might be stronger than your son than Beichen Mo!”
Beichen Zhan smiled, “Then I made the right choice this time.”
Then, Lin Hao led Beichen Zhan to Ancestor Lin.
“The current head of the Beichen family, Beichen Zhan, greets Ancestor Lin!” Beichen Zhan said respectfully.
“When we fight later, you don’t have to be at the front line. Just help me take care of the Lin family,” said Ancestor Lin with a smile.
“Actually, Ancestor Beichen told me that I’m only here to symbolically contribute. If I can fight, I’ll fight. If I can’t, I’ll persuade you to let me protect the Lin family’s final bloodline.”
“That does sound like the old fellow!” Ancestor Lin said helplessly. A bright light flashed in his eyes, “But my Lin family might not necessarily lose this war!”
Ancestor Lin narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
“Now, it’s time to start the banquet.”
