Sixth-Grade Family!

After the great battle.

The Lin Family rested for a few days.

Then, the entire clan relocated.

Though it sounds like a large undertaking, the core members were only the eight elders and Lin You.

The Lin Family had no collateral branches.

Nor did they have any long-term servants or stewards.

The original retainers were given ample compensation and sent back to their own homes.

Within the Sixth-grade Star Domain, there were also hierarchies.

The Lin Family chose a moderately positioned star domain to settle in.

Firstly, they wouldn't encounter overly powerful families, thus avoiding a repeat of past misfortunes.

After all, no one would be happy about outsiders carving up their interests.

Secondly, the Lin Family had, after all, risen from a lower-tier star domain.

Several uncles in the clan had suppressed their cultivation for a long time, and none had yet broken through to the Martial Immortal realm.

Maintaining a low profile was the proper course of action.

Mengbo Star Domain.

The Lin Family settled in, recruiting servants from outside while also planning how to interact with the other three major families in the area.

"You'er... you've reached the True Fire Refining Spirit realm now."

"Why don't we... finalize your engagement?"

"After all, you're eighteen, it's time to start a family."

In the great hall.

Lin Tao sat at the head seat, gripping his teacup, and said earnestly.

As cultivators progress further, it becomes harder to conceive offspring.

The True Fire Refining Spirit realm is still barely within the acceptable timeframe.

Lin You's forehead broke out in a sweat.

How long has it been? Already pushing him to marry?

Eighteen years old... Am I that old?

"Brother Tao..."

"There's no rush with marriage, no rush."

Lin You chuckled, trying to brush it off.

"How can there be no rush?"

The Second Elder, Lin Dong, slapped his thigh.

"You're the only descendant in the Lin Family right now, and you're not in a hurry."

"Do you want our Lin Family to end its lineage?"

"By the time you break through to the Martial Dao Profound realm, the Martial Immortal realm, you won't be able to have children even if you wanted to."

"We brothers are waiting to hold our grandchildren!"

The Eighth Elder nodded repeatedly.

"I previously contacted a young lady from the Zhao Family in the Eighth-grade Star Domain."

"If you don't fancy her, Uncle can help you find someone else."

"We've even prepared Aphrodisiac Powder for you!"

Facing the barrage of questions, Lin You couldn't stop a drop of cold sweat from trickling down his forehead.

Good heavens...

This pressure is greater than fighting ten geniuses.

If he refused, he was afraid he would hurt his uncles' feelings.

After all, he was the only descendant of the Lin Family.

If he didn't have children, could he expect these uncles, who had lived for thousands of years, to have them?

But if he didn't refuse...

Given his current rate of progress, if he found a wife who matched him now, it wouldn't be long before they were in different worlds.

"How can this marriage happen?"

"Uncle... I, I'll think about it again," Lin You stammered.

"No problem!"

The Sixth Elder spoke up, the first to side with Lin You.

"What's a man's worry about not having a wife?"

"It's just about having kids, right? Tomorrow I'll go to the Star Picking Tower and find ten or eight girls for You'er."

"I guarantee they can produce a litter."

Hearing this, Lin You's heart, which had just settled, rose again.

What kind of place is the Star Picking Tower?

A brothel!

Do they really think of me as a stud horse?

Are there STDs in this world!

"Nonsense!"

"If you ask me, the Zhao family's daughter is quite good."

"She's from a prominent family, after all, even if it's a bit of a mismatch."

"But I heard that the Zhao family's daughter has an extremely high talent."

"She's only sixteen and already in the Five Qi Towards Origin Realm. She's bound to break through to Martial Immortal in the future!"

The Second Elder, Lin Dong, spoke earnestly.

Upon hearing this, the uncles nodded repeatedly.

"Not bad."

"Although she's a bit inferior to You'er, with such talent, she can barely be considered a match."

"Excellent, I'll go to the Zhao family to propose now."

Saying that, the Eighth Elder actually got up to leave.

Lin You's forehead was throbbing.

"Don't!"

"I haven't even agreed yet!"

"What are you all in such a hurry for?"

He slapped his thigh and sat down on the chair like a rogue.

"If you want to get married, you get married!"

"I'm not getting married anyway!"

Everyone was speechless, and the great hall fell silent.

Lin You looked up in confusion.

Did I just seem too forceful and hurt my uncles' feelings?

But the next second, An extremely furious roar from a young girl came from the communication jade slip in the Eighth Elder's hand.

"Lin You!"

"You're a complete scoundrel!"

"When did I, Zhao Ling'er, become someone no one wants even if I throw myself at them!"

"Just you wait, I'll come to your door and deal with you sooner or later!"

Everyone heard it clearly.

Lin You smacked his forehead and rolled his eyes.

He looked speechlessly at the Eighth Elder.

"You old man are really efficient."

"You contacted her right after you mentioned it."

"Aren't you just making me offend people?"

Everyone sneered, unable to resist chuckling.

They looked at Lin You with eyes full of anticipation, ready to watch the show.

Serves you right for being so arrogant.

It's over now, isn't it?

If someone comes looking for us, we can neither fight nor curse back.

There are only two words for it.

We're in the wrong!

Lin Tao quietly picked up his teacup, completely avoiding the topic of having children, and said earnestly:

"No matter who you offend... never offend a woman."

"If people heard you say that, they'd definitely think you were being insulting."

He took a sip of tea and spat out the tea leaves.

"Two words."

"Trouble!"

Everyone burst into laughter.

The Eighth Elder numbly closed the communication jade slip with the Zhao Family.

Just then.

The door to the room was knocked.

--Bang..

--Bang bang...

Everyone exchanged glances.

The visitor was not friendly.

The Eighth Elder stepped forward and opened the door.

They saw three middle-aged men, all looking to be in their forties, standing at the entrance.

The man leading them was dressed in opulent clothes, with a scholarly air about him.

He nodded slightly.

"Are you all from the Lin Family, who have come from a Seventh-grade Star Domain?"

"Su Ming pays his respects."

The Su Family.

The foremost family in the Mengbo Star Domain.

On the surface, the Su Family shared the star domain with two other major families.

But in reality.

The Su Family's strength was greater than the other two families combined.

"So it's the head of the Su Family."

"Please, come in quickly."

Lin Tao was the first to step forward.

A strong dragon doesn't suppress a local snake. The Lin Family has just risen to a Sixth-grade Star Domain.

They don't even have a single Martial Immortal realm cultivator in the clan.

They weren't exactly a strong dragon.

Naturally, they had to be treated with utmost hospitality.

"This junior greets the head of the Lin Family." Su Ming smiled and nodded, walking through the door.

"You flatter me. You have long since broken through to the Martial Immortal realm. In the path of cultivation, the accomplished lead the way." Lin Tao's posture was very humble.

"I was merely fortunate."

"The lower three-tier star domains are suppressed by the Everlasting Families, preventing them from breaking through to the Martial Immortal realm."

"If I had been born into a Ninth-grade family, I might not have done any better than you all in the Lin Family."

Su Ming shook his head and slowly walked towards the main hall.

After his words landed.

Everyone's hearts sank.

A show of dominance?

It seemed like he hadn't said anything, yet he had displayed the Su Family's superiority in every gesture.

Referring to them as "lower three-tier" and "Ninth-grade Star Domain" one after another.

He was undoubtedly saying.

I know all about your background.

Lin Tao forced a smile onto his face and first poured the other person a cup of tea.

"I wonder what brings the Su Family Head here?"

Su Ming picked up the teacup and took a small sip.

"I've come to discuss the matter of resource allocation with all of you."

Lin Tao's heart stirred slightly. "I'm eager to hear more."

Just as everyone was waiting for him to continue, Su Ming suddenly turned his head and looked at Lin You.

"This must be Lin You, the first-place winner of the Heavenly Pride Competition?"

"Such a young man!"
