Chapter 6: Lin Xiangxian

  Zhang Ruochen, Lin Fei and servant Yuner sat in a deer-drawn carriage, slowly leaving the Cloud Martial Emperors palace.

  The Saola is not a true horse, but a kind of wild beast with a single horn on its head, its body is over three meters tall, like a small elephant, and its running speed is more than five times that of an ordinary warhorse. Some robust Saolas can even run for thousands of miles in one day.

  The antelope cart didnt know how far it had traveled, and gradually came to a stop.

  Zhang Ruochen got out of the car and looked at the two magnificent gates not far away, then looked at the golden plaque hanging on top of the gate, with two strong and powerful characters written on it: "Lin Fu"

  His heart skipped a beat, wasnt his mothers surname "Lin"?

  Looking at this mansions majestic appearance, the Lin family is not some small household, but rather a large and influential clan.

  If mothers maternal family is indeed a large clan, why cant they get the support of their maternal family, but instead are bullied by other princesses in the Dukes mansion everywhere?

  There must be some ulterior motive.

  Lin Fei also got out of the carriage, looked up at the familiar yet strange gate and said: "Chen Er, you must have wanted to see Xian Sang for a long time now that youve also opened up your Shengwu Seal, I believe you and Xian Sang will have a lot to talk about, you must work hard"

  Up until now, Zhang Ruochen still didnt know what kind of person Zhen Shi was. After hearing Yuner and Lin Feis words, he had a strange feeling.

  Under Lin Feis lead, Zhang Ruochen and Yuner walked into the Lin Manor together.

  The princess returned to her family and should have been warmly welcomed, but the only one who came to greet Lin Fei and Zhang Ruochen at the gate was an elderly steward.

  Lin Fei was taken to the inner court by that old steward, while Zhang Ruochen and Yuner stayed in the outer court, with only two maids left to receive them.

  Zhang Ruochen had a feeling that something was off, but didnt know how to ask about it, so she just kept silent.

  " Ninth Prince, arent you going to see Xian Sang? She should be at the Martial Arts Arena now. The young masters of the Lin family should all be there training." Yuner asked.

  Zhang Ruochens curiosity grew even more after being mentioned several times by Yuner and Lin Fei, so he thought it wouldnt hurt to go see who this "Jian Xiang" woman was.

  "Lets go, to the Lin familys martial arts arena." Zhang Ruochen nodded and said.

  The inner courtyard of the Lin family.

  In a hall with an ancient charm, Lin Fengxian, the master of the Lin family, sat steadily on a taishi chair.

  He looked to be in his thirties, with two neat whiskers above his lips. He glanced at Lin Fei sitting opposite him and said: "The Ninth Prince is a descendant of the Dukes Manor, even if he opened the Divine Martial Seal, he should go to the Dukes Manors library to choose a cultivation method. Why did Princess Lin come to the Lin family to ask for a cultivation method?"

  Lin Fei lightly bit her lip and said, "Its not asking for it, Im requesting that Big Brother look at the fact that Dust is your own nephew and give him a volume of cultivation method."

  "Boom"

  Lin Fengxian let out a cold snort, slapping his palm on the table. "Now you know to come and ask your elder brother for help? Now you want to talk about familial ties? Three years ago, when I went to the Dukes Manor to ask for your help, why didnt you take into account that Chen Yu was your own nephew and save him? You knew full well that Chen Yu was my legitimate son, and an extraordinary talent of the Lin family who appears only once in a hundred years. If you had gone to plead with the Duke, he would have definitely been spared, but you didnt."

  "Three years ago", Lin Fei was very wronged, couldnt help but shed tears, wanting to speak out the truth of three years ago.

  However, Lin Fengxian interrupted her and said: "You can leave. The Lin family has already cut ties with you, and dont come back again in the future. Princess Lin."

  "Bang"

  Lin Fei knelt directly on the ground, tears streaming down her face, and sobbed: "Big brother, are you so heartless? I want to see Father."

  "Father has gone to Tianmo Ridge and wont be back for three months, so you cant see him now." Lin Feng said indifferently: "Theres one more thing, Xianer and the Seventh Prince are about to get engaged, tell the Ninth Prince to stay away from Xianer from now on."

  Lin Feis heart was even more desperate, saying: "You clearly know that Chen Er has always liked Xi Sang. If he knew that Xi Sang and the Seventh Prince were engaged, how heartbreaking would it be? How could it be the Seventh Prince?"

  Lin Feng Xian said: "The Seventh Prince was able to activate the Seven Product Divine Martial Seal at the age of three. His innate talent is astonishing, and with his current martial arts cultivation, none of the young generation in Yunwu County can match him. If Siyan can form a bond with the Seventh Prince, it will bring great benefits to our Lin familys future."

  "Although the Ninth Prince and Sang were cousins, they had also been good playmates since childhood, and could be considered as having grown up together. However, the Ninth Prince was indeed mediocre in talent, only awakening his martial imprint at the age of sixteen, and would not have any great achievements in this life. Being able to cultivate to the late stage of the Yellow Extreme Realm should already be his limit, and he couldnt compare with the Seventh Prince at all."

  Lin Fei said: "Xianer is also willing to marry the Seventh Prince for the sake of family interests, will they really be happy?"

  Lin Fengxian stared at Lin Fei and said indifferently: "Youre wrong, this was Zhen Xiangs own decision."

  The martial arts arena of the Lin family was very spacious, about half the size of a football field.

  One by one, the young men of the Lin family, dressed in green martial attire, were practicing their martial skills on the training grounds. Some were practicing fist techniques, some were practicing sword techniques, and others were practicing knife techniques.

  They are the elite of the Lin family, each having activated their Divine Martial Mark and devoted themselves to cultivation. At the same time, there were also seniors of the Lin family in the martial arena guiding them, a scene of prosperity and flourishing.

  Zhang Ruochen nodded and thought to himself, "The Lin family is a prominent clan in Yunwu Commandery."

  Suddenly, Zhang Ruochens gaze was fixed on a slender girl, and he couldnt help but be amazed.

  All that could be seen was that the young girl looked like she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, with a slender and delicate figure, eyebrows like willow leaves, bright eyes like stars, and skin as white as jade. What a beautiful young thing.

  She held a sword that emitted a faint starlight, with a pale blue sword aura, countless sword energies surrounded her body, following her footsteps, as if flying like a startled swan, and moving like a swimming dragon, the swordsmanship was simply exquisite to the extreme.

  "True energy released, sword follows the heart. Her martial arts cultivation has at least reached the extreme position of the Yellow Extreme Realm, far surpassing the Eighth Prince." Zhang Ruochen thought to himself.

  "Huh? Isnt that the Ninth Prince? Hes actually come to the Lin Manor." A young member of the Lin family saw Zhang Ruochen standing outside the martial arena and revealed a few hints of a cold smile.

  "He must be here to look for Xianer again, unfortunately, Xianer doesnt even bother to see him now."

  "I heard he also activated the Divine Martial Mark."

  "Hes only sixteen and has already activated the Divine Martial Mark, what can he do if he werent Leng Qiqis cousin, maybe he wouldnt even be able to enter the Lin familys gate."

  "I heard that Xiang Meis sister is about to get engaged to Seventh Prince, what a perfect match!"

  "Hehe, I heard that the ninth prince has always had a secret crush on Xiangers sister. Guess what expression he would have if he found out that Xianger and the seventh prince are about to get engaged?"

  The young martial artists of the Lin family all stopped their training, staring at Zhang Ruochen standing outside the arena, pointing and discussing, occasionally bursting into mocking laughter.

  Lin Xuanxian also stopped practicing her sword, glanced at Zhang Ruochen standing outside the martial arts arena, and with a light wave of her slender jade arm, the Starlight Treasure Sword in her hand accurately inserted into the scabbard five meters away.

  Lin Xuanxuan walked up to Zhang Ruochens front, took a look at Zhang Ruochens thin body and said: "Brother-in-law, long time no see. I heard you also activated the Divine Martial Mark."

  When they were very young, Lin Xianxian and Zhang Ruochen were good playmates and could be considered as childhood sweethearts. However, after Lin Xianxian activated the Divine Martial Mark, most of her time was spent on cultivation, causing her to drift further and further away from Zhang Ruochen.

  Three years after the incident, she never went to Yunwu Wang Palace again. Zhang Ruochen, although often ill for many years, still frequently visited Lins house to find her, and even if he could see her face, he would feel quite happy.

  However, the times she could see her became fewer and fewer, and in the past six months, she had not seen her at all. She would always send a maid to drive Zhang Ruochen away.

  "It turned out she was my cousin."

  Now Zhang Ruochen can be said to have seen Lin Ruoshuang for the first time, and he didnt have any feeling towards her, so he looked very calm, and humbly said: "Indeed, it is the opening of the Divine Martial Mark, but Queen Wang said that it was only a Divine Martial Mark without grade, naturally it cant be compared with my cousins Divine Martial Mark."

  Lin Xuan nodded, tilting her snow-white chin upwards, proudly like a white swan, and said: "Youre already sixteen years old, and being able to unlock the Divine Martial Record is a blessing from heaven. From now on, you must work hard to cultivate your skills. Although you may not become a powerful martial artist, at least you can strengthen your body and stay healthy, no longer bedridden all year round. For you, thats already being a normal person."

  Zhang Ruochen slightly furrowed his brow and nodded, saying: "From now on, I will definitely work hard to cultivate my skills and strive to catch up with your cultivation, cousin."

  Lin Xuan knew that Zhang Ruochen liked her naturally, and when she heard Zhang Ruochens words, she thought that Zhang Ruochen still had no intention of giving up and wanted to continue pursuing her.

  "Hey, Brother Biao, my cultivation has already reached the middle stage of the Yellow Extreme Realm, and Im only one step away from the Great Extreme Realm. With your talent, I estimate that you wont even reach the middle stage in your lifetime. What you should do now is to focus on your cultivation, dont blindly pursue things that are not suitable for you. As a person, you cant be too ambitious, or it will backfire." Lin Xian said with a double meaning.

  Zhang Ruochens eyebrows furrowed even deeper.

  Lin Xuanxiang looked at Zhang Ruochen with some sympathy and said, "Brother-in-law, theres something else I need to tell you. I hope you wont be too heartbroken. Three months from now, after the Duke is released from his seclusion, I will likely be engaged to the Seventh Prince."

  "Theres going to be a good show hehe"

  The young warriors of the Lin family were all overjoyed and cast their eyes on Zhang Ruochen, wanting to see what kind of reaction he would have.
