Chapter 65: Farewell to the One
Although Lin Dong and the others were unaware of the rules of Yin Yang City, they understood that information about Yin Yang City must not be leaked. Thus, they grasped the meaning behind Lin Xiaoyao's words, and Lin's Three Uncles became vigilant, casting wary glances at the spies from various families outside.
However, Yang Zai Xing chuckled and said, "Half of this is a congratulatory gift prepared by the Lord for Grandma, and the other half is for the Lord's future cultivation. Don't worry, this gift was arranged with the help of someone who interceded on our behalf. While it may not exhibit its full effects, it can still be used by outsiders."
"What is it? Is there anything for me?" Yang Nan asked curiously.
"Hehe! You can use it too, but if you dare to, you might get beaten to death!" Big Head chuckled.
After all, among the Ten People, only Big Head and Yang Nan were familiar with each other; the Ding Family siblings were not as close.
Lin Nan scratched his head and said gloomily, "So that means my brother didn't prepare a gift for me."
"Nan, bringing items out of Yin Yang City is already difficult enough; let alone allowing outsiders to use them," Lin Xiaoyao said with a hint of seriousness.
Having experienced Yin Yang City firsthand made them aware of its power and the might of the Eternal Emperor. Therefore, Lin Xiaoyao had to be cautious.
Seeing this, Lin Nan realized he was just joking. Since even his usually carefree fifth brother was being so serious, he put away his playful demeanor and adopted a solemn expression.
"What could be in those ten large boxes?" Lian Yun's sister-in-law from the Qin Family asked curiously.
"A bathwater potion. By the way, Lord, please use this gift before Matriarch's birthday banquet."
"Water~~" Lin Xiaoyao's eyes widened in shock.
Then, aside from everyone else, even Grandma turned her head slightly to look at Lin Xiaoyao.
It was known that Lin Xiaoyao's current strength was nearly unmatched in Huaxia. If he found something so astonishing, it must indeed be extraordinary.
Grandma was more concerned about Yang Zai Xing's earlier words, asking someone to plead for help. Although Grandma did not know who that person was, she understood that this individual could appeal to the Eternal Emperor, which meant the debt of gratitude would be even greater.
However, Lin Xiaoyao did not think too much about it. Having witnessed Emperor Yi's demeanor, he knew that Emperor Yi had already helped Lian Yun many times. With so many favors owed, he was not worried about one more. But when he saw that all ten boxes contained the same substance, Lin Xiaoyao mysteriously smiled and said, "All ten boxes are filled! Haha, it seems that both Mother and Sisters-in-law are in for a treat."
With Lin Xiaoyao's remark, Lian Yun's Three Aunts and four Cousin-in-laws immediately became restless with curiosity.
But these gifts were meant for Grandma, and clearly, they had to wait for Grandma's blessing before they could be used.
Grandma nodded lightly and said, "Then let each person have a share! San'er will take two portions for your wife and daughters."
If Lian Yun were present, he might have noticed that his Third Aunt was absent, as well as his cousin Lin Ling, whose gender he had not yet determined.
Upon hearing Grandma's words, Lin Nan and Lin Nan's expressions instantly turned somber.
Lin Dong placed a hand on Lin Nan's shoulder and sighed, "Sanmei is not someone who lacks understanding; she will come to terms with it eventually. Perhaps when Yun'er returns, we can have him talk to her."
Lin Nan nodded and gestured for Lin Nan to take one of the boxes. He himself did not take any and led the way back into the house.
Grandma frowned slightly and said with mild irritation, "Nan, bring Ling'er to my courtyard."
Lin Nan turned back quickly and replied, "Alright!"
He then hurried ahead of Lin Nan.
Afterward, Yang Zai Xing and the others were invited into the house. After handing over the remaining nine boxes, Chen Er Gou eagerly led Yang Zai Xing and the others to Lian Yun's Mansion, where his mother and sister awaited them.
…………………………
The education at Alliance Academy lasts four years; however, it is not an endpoint but rather a beginning. Various scientific studies are conducted there, such as Dao Talismans among others, along with continued efforts to enhance combat strength.
However, compared to before, there was much more openness, mostly in the form of clubs and societies. Occasionally, some would take on roles as substitute teachers or counselors.
In short, although they were young, they were no longer just young students, yet they could still receive protection from the Alliance.
Originally, Lian Yun should have thought that Le Yan would be under Grandma's protection after receiving Le Yan's "love letter" from her. However, now filled with longing, what he thought was that Lejia was not large, and Le Yan staying at Alliance Academy would ensure better protection.
Anxious and restless, before Yang Zai Xing had even entered the capital, Lian Yun had already arrived at the entrance of Alliance Academy. His Mental Power was fully unleashed, sweeping across the entire Alliance Academy without restraint, probing every corner in search of Excellent Choice.
He paid no mind to how many Monarchs were startled or frightened by his presence.
Soon, he discovered that Excellent Choice was dining with two stunning beauties in a restaurant, and he instantly teleported over.
In an antique-style restaurant, three breathtaking beauties sat at a corner table. One had a voluptuous figure and an air of arrogance that could rival Four Gates Jade Reflection. She leaned lazily forward, her alluring form causing several young men nearby to be unable to tear their eyes away—some were even bleeding from their noses while others blushed furiously, most of them breathing heavily.
Another beauty exuded an ethereal quality, appearing untouched by the mundane world. Her demeanor was calm as she scooped a bit of ice cream with a spoon and brought it to her delicate lips, radiating an unusual charm.
The last one paled in comparison to the first two but possessed large eyes and an oval face that gave off a fresh and pure aura.
At this moment, this girl looked somewhat dazed and expectantly gazed out the window, as if her thoughts had drifted far away.
"You know, if that guy comes back, will he come looking for you first? What if he finds another woman over there?" The voluptuous beauty asked with a hint of boredom in her voice but also an underlying sense of anticipation.
However, the ethereal beauty sensed something first; her delicate body trembled slightly as her eyes reflected both longing and hope.
"Don't worry; if he encounters you, he should help convey the message," the last girl finally came back to her senses. She comforted the fairy-like girl beside her before shaking her head slightly. "He'll probably return to pay his respects to Grandma first~~"
Before she finished speaking, her body lifted into the air without any wind and was suddenly embraced tightly.
Though it was abrupt and caught her off guard, instinctively she knew who it was. She subconsciously reached out her hands and slowly placed them on the man's back, gently caressing him.
It seemed like a comfort, yet also like a confession.
No one dared to disturb the scene; the atmosphere was so oppressive that no one in the restaurant could move. The man exuded an overwhelmingly powerful aura that paralyzed everyone around him.
After a long while, as his presence suddenly dissipated, the patrons of the restaurant either gasped for breath or collapsed to the ground, their faces reflecting sheer terror as if they had just survived a disaster.
Yet the man buried his head in the beauty of Excellent Choice, speaking with deep affection, "I’m back!"
"Mm!"
"I missed you!"
"Mm!"
"I didn't look for other women, even though someone seemed to want to assault me, but I didn’t agree."
"Pfft~~~"
