Chapter 68: Ling'er’s Special Ability
The Ghostly Women were suddenly startled, and the Soul Body trembled slightly, their eyes becoming hazy without tears, truly revealing a misty appearance.
Le Yan turned to look and was immediately taken aback, hurrying forward to support her, enviously saying, "Grandma, you look so young! Your skin is so smooth and fair. You look absolutely stunning."
To be honest, Grandma had always looked like a beautiful woman in her thirties. Now, after soaking in the Yaochi Water, she indeed appeared rejuvenated, showcasing the figure of a woman in her mid-twenties.
If it weren't for the aged expression in her beautiful eyes, no one would believe she was an elderly woman about to celebrate her Sixty Birthday Celebration.
"You little brat~~" Grandma laughed and scolded lightly before fixing her cold gaze on Lian Yun.
Seeing Grandma's furious expression, Lian Yun immediately resembled a child caught in wrongdoing, holding Ling'er and lowering his head in silence.
However, Ling'er in his arms looked even more confused. She knew how much her grandmother missed Brother Yun. She even felt that if she weren't so young, Grandma would definitely dote on Brother Yun more than all her brothers combined.
She couldn't understand why Grandma was angry at this moment.
Le Yan was also somewhat puzzled.
Only Lian Yun understood the true reason behind Grandma's anger.
Grandma was not upset because he hadn't come to greet her right away; she was angry that he had actually broken through to the Emperor Realm.
It was known that Grandma cherished Lin Feiyu dearly. When Lian Yun returned, the first thing she did when she went out was to inquire about Lin Feiyu.
But Grandma had always insisted that Lin Feiyu could not become an emperor without descendants. As Lian Yun's beloved grandson, this requirement should have been even more firmly established. Yet Lian Yun had broken through and reached the Intermediate Emperor Realm.
With that, how could Grandma not be angry?
Seeing Lian Yun in such a state, Grandma felt that he was knowingly making a mistake, which only made her angrier. Finally, she couldn't help but say coldly, "You are already a Medium Monarch now; what future do you expect to have?"
"You are now all alone. Do you want your parents to know from the afterlife and die with regrets?"
"Even if you don't think of yourself or your parents, have you considered Yun Girl?"
"The greater your reputation grows in the future, the more criticism Yun Girl will face if you have no heirs. Have you thought about that?"
"Who dares—" Hearing someone speak ill of Le Yan, Lian Yun became furious.
However, upon seeing Grandma's fierce gaze, Lian Yun deflated like a punctured balloon. He first nodded apologetically at Le Yan and then immediately lowered his head.
"Hmph! With your current attitude, if you cannot guarantee Yun Girl's happiness, I will not agree to your marriage. You can figure it out yourself. Ling'er, come over here to Grandma; don't get too close to your Brother Yun."
Grandma sat down across from Lian Yun and spoke with unusually harsh words.
Everyone feared Grandma; although Ghostly Women were reluctant to leave Lian Yun's embrace, they still quickly moved to Grandma's side upon hearing her words.
Le Yan, who had originally been beside Grandma, became anxious.
Restless and uncertain, she felt lost.
Despite feeling like a child who had made a mistake, Lian Yun could not agree with Grandma's statement but dared not oppose her too much. So he muttered stubbornly, "I will definitely marry Yan; it’s useless for you to oppose it, Grandma."
"However, if you have any conditions, Yun'er will do her best to fulfill them."
Le Yan shifted from sadness to joy and then felt an overwhelming shyness as she sat beside Grandma, lowering her head in silence.
"Hmph! What conditions? If you can make Yun Girl pregnant, I will agree to your marriage."
“Matriarch~~~” Le Yan’s voice was weak and trembling, filled with embarrassment and shame.
Such matters could not be forced; how could one guarantee them? Lian Yun felt somewhat at a loss, unsure of how to respond.
At that moment, despite her understanding, the still naive Ghostly Women suddenly looked up, smiling foolishly at Grandma as if presenting a treasure. “Grandma, perhaps Ling’er has a way!”
“After Ling’er died in Mama’s arms, she was able to control her own body and show signs of vitality. So Ling’er thinks she should be able to help Sister Yan get pregnant.”
In that instant, Le Yan partially lost her composure and threw herself into Grandma’s embrace, desperately trying to burrow into her belly.
Lian Yun widened her eyes, feeling an awkwardness she couldn’t quite express.
However, the stubborn Grandma suddenly brightened up and couldn’t help but laugh.
It is said that some mothers will guide their sons on their wedding night beside the bridal chamber. Although Grandma wouldn’t do such a thing, for the sake of the Lin Clan’s future, she was ready to disregard everything. How could she care about these so-called ‘worldly customs’?
At this moment, Grandma not only envisioned Lian Yun having children but also imagined herself with several more grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law with prominent bellies.
“Hahaha! There really is a possibility! Hahaha! This longevity gift from Ling’er is Grandma’s favorite and most precious gift, without exception! Hahaha! My good Ling’er, what a wonderful name!”
Grandma laughed heartily, unable to contain her joy.
For the first time in over a decade or even several decades, Grandma laughed so freely.
Outside the courtyard, Lin Feiyu and the others had just returned and were planning to pay their respects to Grandma and meet their Yun Di. However, upon hearing this hearty laughter, Lin Feiyu, Lin Wuji, Lin Zixing, Lin Ziyou, Lin Xiaoyao, and Lin Nan first smiled, then stared blankly before bursting into laughter themselves.
The three uncles of the Lin Family, Lin Dong, along with Xi and Nan, quickly approached with smiles on their faces.
“Is it only Yun'er who can make Mother so happy?” Lin Nan joked with a hint of jealousy.
"Ha ha! It's rare to see Mother so cheerful; we should avoid disturbing her and focus on preparing the Birthday Banquet!"
"Hehe, I've heard that the Alliance and various families have sent over a new list of gifts. I wonder what's on it."
The nine men of the Lin Clan wore no expressions of mockery, only coldness.
Now they come to curry favor? Where were they before? If they hadn't conspired against Lian Yun, perhaps Lian Yun would have truly become a Demigod Expert by now.
This was the shared thought among the nine men of the Lin Clan.
However, since the Alliance was coming to celebrate, they couldn't refuse. Otherwise, it would seem overly arrogant.
After all, the current Lin Clan boasts two unparalleled Peerless Monarchs: Lian Yun and Lin Xiaoyao. Even the Alliance's Imperial Path might not compare.
Yet, precisely because of this situation, the Lin Clan should be more humble; otherwise, it could provoke internal strife within the Huaxia Ethnicity.
This isn't just a matter of being tough enough; it concerns the safety and security of the entire nation.
