"Langtian greets Elder Lin..."

After being recognized, Lin Langtian smiled faintly and then bowed slightly to Lin Zhentian in front of him.

As a guest, Lin Langtian felt obliged to show respect to the host, since they were visiting the Yan City Branch.

Lin Langtian's revelation of his identity caused a brief silence in the hall.

Unexpectedly, Lin Langtian, who was at the height of his power and renowned in the Great Yan Dynasty, actually descended upon the Yan City Lin Family.

This is like a superstar from a past life suddenly appearing in an ordinary family, which is extremely shocking.

After a while, the Yan City Lin Family finally came to their senses, Lin Mang behind Lin Zhentian hurriedly smiled respectfully.

"My apologies, my apologies. It is truly an honor to have Young Master Langtian grace our Yan City Branch with his presence. If we had received this news earlier, the Yan City Lin Family would have been waiting outside the city to welcome Young Master Langtian."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mang quickly gave up the seat behind him so that Lin Langtian it.

Lin Zhentian's old eyes carefully examined Lin Langtian several times. Seeing that the other party had a profound aura, but did not show any of the arrogance or contempt for the branch family as rumored, he believed what Elder Tao had said two years ago.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhentian sighed softly. Recalling the favors he had received over the past two years, the suspicion in his eyes slowly faded, and he then looked at Lin Langtian and smiled.

"So it is Young Master Langtian who has come to our humble residence. It seems that something big must have happened near Yan City, otherwise why would the clan send Young Master Langtian, the number one genius of the main family?"

"What Elder Lin said is correct. Something big has indeed happened in Tiandu Prefecture recently, and the location is in the Tianyan Mountain Range, not far from Yan City."

According to family intelligence, an Ancient Tomb Mansion has been discovered in the Tianyan Mountain Range, and it belongs to Nirvana Stage Expert Tomb Mansion. It is extremely valuable, therefore the family sent me here personally..."

Sensing Lin Zhentian's friendly attitude, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow slightly and then chuckled.

"Nirvana- level Tomb Mansion..." Upon hearing this, Lin Zhentian and the others all showed a look of surprise.

Even for the Four Great Clans, Nirvana Stage Expert are top-tier beings, let alone a mere branch Yan City Branch.

Upon hearing this news, Lin Zhentian's old eyes flickered, as if he were pondering something.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly, guessing the other party's plan. They simply wanted to put Lin Dong into the main group and see if he could find any treasures in the Ancient Tomb Mansion.

However, since Lin Langtian is now the team leader, whether Lin Dong will be allowed to join depends on his mood...

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian casually glanced around and noticed that the Yan City Lin Family not far away were looking at him with curiosity, awe, and admiration.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian was also taken aback. He originally thought that even if he resolved his grievances with Lin Xiao, his reputation in the Yan City Branch should not be very good.

But now it seems that the Yan City Branch doesn't have such a bad impression of him. In fact, their respect for him is not only similar to that of the main family, but even more fervent...

Seemingly noticing Lin Langtian's confusion, Lin Mang smiled and explained, "Young Master Langtian, you may not know this, but it was thanks to your kindness that our Yan City Branch was able to leave Qingyang Town and gain a foothold in Yan City."

If it weren't for you, young master, it's hard to say whether my Yan City Branch could have survived the Lei and Xie Families, as well as the counterattack from the local forces in Yan City.

Therefore, Young Master Langtian truly owes a debt of gratitude to my Yan City Branch ..."

Upon hearing Lin Mang's words, Lin Langtian was also taken aback, and his gaze swept over Lin Zhentian and the others.

It was discovered that in addition to Lin Zhentian, who was already at the Great Perfection of the Yuan Dan Realm, Lin Xiao, Lin Mang, and Lincoln had also reached the Lesser Perfection of the Yuan Dan Realm.

Four Yuan Dan Realm —such a force would be nothing in Lin City, but in Yan City, it would be considered the number one force under the City Lord's Mansion.

"It's because of those ten thousand Pure Yuan Pill..." Upon seeing this, Lin Langtian understood what was going on.

In the original timeline, the Yan City Branch faced exceptional difficulties in its rise to power, even suffering repeated calamities of family destruction and extermination.

If it weren't for Lin Dong always stepping up at crucial moments, the Yan City Branch would probably have disappeared into the annals of history like any other small family.

However, with Lin Langtian's intervention, the Yan City Lin Family, who possessed 10,000 Pure Yuan Pill, also rapidly increased their strength, thus enabling them to withstand successive crises.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian felt a mix of amusement and exasperation.

He never expected that ten thousand Pure Yuan Pill, which were insignificant to him, could have such an effect.

In this way, without Lin Dong's repeated acts of bravery, the favor actually fell on Lin Langtian...

Lin Langtian shook his head slightly at Lin Mang's flattery, his gaze slowly turning to Lin Xiao, whose expression was complicated. Compared to the respect shown by most of the Yan City Branch, he cared more about the attitude of Lin Dong's family.

As Lin Langtian looked over, Lin Xiao's gaze never left him.

At this moment, Lin Langtian also greatly shocked Lin Xiao, because he could not see the arrogant and domineering shadow of the young Lin Langtian from several years ago in him.

Lin Langtian now seems like a completely different person, more humble, reserved, and unfathomable.

Perhaps, it really was just youthful arrogance back then...

Seeing the respectful attitude of his father, brothers, and even most of the family towards Lin Langtian, Lin Xiao's tense mind and the hands clenched tightly in his sleeves slowly relaxed at the same time, as if relieved of a heavy burden, and his expression returned to its usual calm.

"Young Master Langtian, it's been a long time..."

"Long time no see, Mr. Lin Xiao," Lin Langtian replied calmly.

The grudge between the two is both deep and shallow. Although it was all caused by the original owner of this body, Lin Langtian is trying to mend the mess.

Fortunately, things haven't reached the point of no return. Two years ago, thanks to Elder Tao's mediation, everything is developing along a different trajectory from the original timeline.

Although the two didn't say much, on the contrary, their peaceful conversation proved that everything from the past had vanished...

As Lin Langtian probed Lin Xiao's attitude, several hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall, and then several disheveled figures walked in. They were the young geniuses of the main family.

"Lin Feng, Lin Qiang, didn't you see Brother Langtian is having a conversation? What kind of behavior is this!" Lin Chen said in a deep voice from the side.

Hearing Lin Chen's angry shout, the group shuddered. Then one of them said aggrievedly, "Brother Lin Chen, it's not our fault. It's these people from the branch family who don't know their place and actually attacked our main family."

"What?" Lin Chen's expression darkened as soon as he finished speaking.

Lin Zhentian and the others were also shocked. For a branch family to attack the main family was a serious crime!

Lin Langtian seemed to have thought of something, and smiled slightly. He then waved his hand and said, "It seems to be just a friendly spar between the juniors. It's nothing serious. As for the reason, all you need to do is have Elder Lin summon the people involved from your family."

Hearing that Lin Langtian had not escalated the situation, Lin Zhentian glanced at him gratefully and breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he guessed that the person who had made the move was most likely his genius grandson.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhentian glanced at Lin Langtian and Lin Xiao a few times, then waved to Lin Xia behind Lin Ken.

Lin Xia gestured and quickly ran out, soon returning with a young man in a black robe.

Although the boy's appearance still had a hint of childishness, his face was resolute. Despite his young age, he was as steady and reserved as a mountain.

Who else could it be but Lin Dong?
