The Lin Clan's gates, after seeing Elder Tao off, Lin Langtian also let out a silent sigh of relief.
Since his rebirth, the most troublesome thing for him had been how to handle his complex relationship with Lin Dong.
After all, in his heart, he greatly admired Lin Dong, but the original body's rash actions had led to their current antagonistic situation.
Fortunately, things hadn't escalated to the worst possible point yet. Perhaps he could change the fate of the two becoming sworn enemies in the original timeline.
Although a belated apology couldn't guarantee Lin Dong would abandon his hatred, taking this step, based on Lin Langtian's understanding of Lin Dong's personality, meant they wouldn't resort to open warfare at the very least.
Shaking his head, Lin Langtian stopped thinking about these matters.
While he didn't wish to be enemies with Lin Dong, with Spirit Aunt's help, even if Lin Dong didn't appreciate it, he wouldn't be afraid of this future Martial Ancestor.
Having settled this matter, Lin Langtian returned to his courtyard.
"Brother Langtian, over here."
As he passed the training ground, a light and agile female voice suddenly called out, causing Lin Langtian to glance over.
The woman was wearing a white dress and possessed a beautiful and moving appearance.
Most astonishingly, this woman's eyes possessed a pair of dual pupils, with azure light flowing around their edges, making them look exceptionally bewitching.
Beside the woman were many young clan members from the inner clan, sparring and training. When they saw Lin Langtian, they all stopped their movements, looking at the handsome man in the green shirt with respect and admiration.
"Oh, it's you, Ke'er. It's already noon, and you're still training?" Lin Langtian smiled slightly as he looked at the woman with dual pupils.
He was not unfamiliar with this woman; she was the genius of the younger generation in the clan, second only to him, Lin Ke'er.
In fact, if the original body hadn't had Mu Shi of the Primordial Spirit's help, he might not have been able to suppress this woman.
And in the original timeline, the only person from the inner clan's younger generation who seemed to have left a good impression on Lin Dong was this Lin Ke'er.
"Heh heh, our talents are all inferior to yours, Brother Langtian. If we don't compensate for our lack of talent with diligence, the gap between us and you will only widen," Lin Ke'er said with a slight smile, her azure beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Langtian.
"Yes, I heard Brother Langtian broke through to the Shaping Realm some time ago and was even promoted to Law Enforcement Elder. We truly can't compare," said a tall and strong young man in his early twenties beside Lin Ke'er.
Lin Langtian looked over. He recognized this person as well; he was also a top-ranked genius among the inner clan's younger generation, named Lin Chen.
"Alright, stop with the flattery. The world is vast, and the Great Yan Dynasty is small. These achievements are nothing," Lin Langtian said dismissively, waving his hand.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen and the others took it as Lin Langtian being modest. However, a hint of doubt appeared in Lin Ke'er's azure eyes.
Unlike ordinary people, she could sense that Lin Langtian seemed genuinely indifferent.
Thinking of this, Lin Ke'er couldn't help but be stunned. The Lin Langtian in her memory was not this humble...
As the few people chatted, on the Lin family's training ground, seeing Lin Langtian walk over, everyone's eyes were filled with respect and adoration.
Lin Langtian had extremely high prestige within the Lin family, and usually, the martial arts of the younger generation of the Lin family were personally taught by him. This made those of his generation treat him with great awe.
Smiling at everyone, Lin Langtian simply sat down in the training ground. Soon after, some of the younger generation of the Lin family came successively to ask for martial arts guidance.
Lin Langtian also seemed quite patient in carefully teaching. Because of the memories of his previous life, he could be considered the foremost among the young generation of the Lin family in terms of martial arts comprehension.
It was precisely because of this that the family had handed over this coach-like task to Lin Langtian.
This teaching went on for nearly two hours. Then Lin Langtian glanced at the sky and was about to get up when a steady voice suddenly came.
"Langtian, you are indeed here."
As the voice fell, a middle-aged man with a profound aura slowly walked over.
"Greetings, Clan Leader!"
The person who arrived was none other than the Clan Leader of the Lin Clan, Lin Fan.
Seeing Lin Fan, Lin Langtian and the many young people were stunned, and then they quickly said respectfully.
"Heh heh, you are all the future of my Lin Clan, no need to be polite," Lin Fan waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Clan Leader, why do you have time to come to the training ground today? Are you looking for Brother Langtian?" Lin Ke'er stepped forward and asked with a light laugh.
"As expected of Ke'er, truly intelligent. That's right, I came looking for Langtian," Lin Fan smiled slightly, then looked at Lin Langtian and said.
Hearing this, Lin Langtian raised his eyebrows, then cupped his fists respectfully and said, "May I know what instructions the Clan Leader has?"
"It's about Ling Qingzhu, the disciple dispatched by that Super Sect to the Great Yan Dynasty. Although this person is a distinguished guest of the Imperial Family, our Lin Clan, as one of the Four Great Clans of the Great Yan Empire, cannot show no regard.
You are going to the Imperial Capital, aren't you? After discussion among the high-level members of the family, the clan has decided to give you five hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills to befriend Ling Qingzhu. Although it's not a lot, it's good to win over some goodwill."
As he spoke, Lin Fan waved his right hand, and a Black Cosmic Bag fell into Lin Langtian's hand.
"Five hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills?" Lin Langtian was stunned as he took the Black Cosmic Bag, then a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Although Lin Fan said that the five hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills were to win over Ling Qingzhu, Lin Langtian knew that this amount of Pure Yuan Pills would not be taken seriously by her.
In this case, it would be better to make good use of them himself.
However, even though he thought this in his heart, Lin Langtian still replied respectfully, "Langtian will definitely leave a good impression of the Lin Clan on Ling Qingzhu."
"That's good. Ling Qingzhu is said to have an impressive background. If you can befriend her, it might be of great use in the future," Lin Fan said solemnly.
"Mm, Langtian will do his best," Lin Langtian nodded.
"Clan Leader, Brother Langtian is going to the Imperial Capital, can you take us with you?" Lin Ke'er, who was beside them, asked quickly.
As the words fell, the many Inner Clan members of the Young Generation on the side also showed hopeful eyes.
Although Lin City's prosperity was not much weaker than the Imperial Capital, that was, after all, the Imperial Capital of the Great Yan Dynasty, which held considerable allure for young people.
In response, Lin Fan looked at Lin Langtian and said, "Langtian, what is your opinion?"
Hearing this, Lin Langtian's brow furrowed slightly. In his heart, he did not want to bring any dead weight.
However, as the leader of the family's Young Generation, he should go with the flow of popular sentiment, so he said.
"You can bring them, but no more than five people. Ke'er, Lin Chen, you two discuss among yourselves who will go with me."
After much thought, Lin Langtian decided to pass the buck. If it were just five dead weights, he could still manage them.
Upon hearing Lin Langtian agree, although there were only five quotas, Lin Ke'er and the others also showed joy on their faces, saying in unison, "Thank you, Brother Langtian."
After thanking him, under Lin Langtian's gaze, the five quotas were quickly selected, namely Lin Ke'er, Lin Chen, and two other males and one female.
Seeing this, Lin Langtian also smiled slightly and said, "Rest for one night, and we depart for the Imperial Capital tomorrow!"
