Beibei and Zhang Lexuan

After confirming his identity, Lin Yan settled down inside the Lin Estate.

From the butler's mouth, he learned quite a bit of useful information.

First, he gained a certain understanding of his mother and maternal grandmother's family.

Although the Lin family had a Titled Douluo powerhouse holding down the fort, it was not that kind of large-scale Soul Master family, and their family line had always been very thin.

Down to Lin Yuhuan's generation, there were only two descendants, namely the sister pair of Lin Yuexin and Lin Yueyao.

Lin Yuexin was Lin Yueyao's elder sister, and Lin Yan's eldest aunt.

When Lin Yan asked the old butler about news of his eldest aunt, he learned that this eldest aunt he had never met had already passed away a few years ago.

At the same time, he also heard some things from the butler's mouth regarding his own mother.

His mother grew up in Nine Treasure City, and originally had an engagement with the young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Sect.

Yet during her travels across the continent, she seemed to have fallen for someone. Because of this matter, she fled the family and chose to elope, walking away for eight whole years without a single scrap of news, right up until Lin Yan returned to the Lin Estate.

"Elope?" Lin Yan was dumbfounded. Could this be the reason why his mother would rather live in seclusion in a mountain village with him than return to the family?

And who on earth was his father?

Was he dead or alive, and why had he never shown his face?

"Sigh!"

Lin Yan sighed inwardly.

This clue was broken again, and he still knew nothing at all about news concerning his father.

Yet he had already made up his mind inside: no matter what, he had to find the truth. Not even knowing who his father was—that sounded far too disgraceful if word got out!

On this day, Lin Yan sought out his maternal grandmother.

"Grandma, my soul power is already at level ten. I want to go and obtain my first spirit ring." Lin Yan trotted over to Lin Yuhuan's side and stated directly.

"Level ten? Didn't you just awaken your martial soul?"

Lin Yuhuan looked at Lin Yan in surprise. Sensing carefully, she indeed discovered that Lin Yan's soul power had already reached level ten.

Lin Yan's appearance and the matter of Lin Yueyao had left her somewhat absent-minded lately, as she kept thinking about where her daughter had gone and what she had experienced, failing to even notice that Lin Yan's soul power had already reached level ten.

"Grandma, I have Innate Full Soul Power!" Lin Yan stated directly.

Regarding the matter of his Innate Full Soul Power, Lin Yan had no intention of concealing it, nor was there any need to.

However, he chose to keep his second martial soul temporarily confidential. Because this martial soul was far too bizarre, and before his mother left, she had also told him not to let anyone know about his second martial soul.

"Innate Full Soul Power?"

Lin Yuhuan was startled, then smiled and nodded, saying, "Good, Yueyao actually birthed a good child. How about this, Grandma has some matters to deal with these next few days. Wait a few days; for now, let the butler teach you how to meditate, and once Grandma is done with her business, she will take you to obtain your first spirit ring."

"Okay!" Lin Yan nodded quickly.

Over the next few days, he pestered the butler, learning the method of Soul Master meditation from him.

At the same time, this was also the first time he displayed the talent of an Innate Full Soul Power Soul Master!

A meditation method that others spent a month or even several months gradually mastering—Lin Yan completely mastered it in a mere single day, able to enter a meditative state at any time to cultivate and enhance his own soul power.

This left the old butler immensely shocked, crying out that he had encountered a genius.

Soon, three days passed in the blink of an eye.

These three days, Lin Yan spent them entirely in meditation.

To him, meditation was truly such a novel matter.

Moreover, it could also raise a Soul Master's cultivation, which filled him with interest toward meditation. He became completely immersed in it, finding endless joy therein, only pausing his cultivation and beginning to rest when he felt exhausted.

Early in the morning, after Lin Yan finished breakfast and was about to continue meditation just like any other day, the old butler suddenly sought him out.

"Young master, stop meditating for a moment; your cousin has come!" The old butler's voice came from outside the door.

"Cousin?" Lin Yan wore a startled expression, quickly hopping down from the bed.

Cousin—that meant this person was the son of his deceased eldest aunt.

After coming to this world, the only family members Lin Yan had seen before were his mother, and now he had gained a maternal grandmother. Upon learning that he still had a cousin, he was likewise filled with interest.

Lin Yan followed the old butler to the front hall.

Two figures seated on chairs immediately caught his attention.

A man and a woman.

The female's age was clearly on the older side, looking seventeen or eighteen, with a tall figure, an exquisite face, and a cascade of black hair draped behind her, making her appearance exceptionally striking.

In the past, Lin Yan had felt that his mother's looks were already very high, yet this young girl's looks were actually not inferior to his mother's.

The other boy was clearly the cousin spoken of by the old butler.

This boy looked to be around the same age as him, with very handsome facial features, short blue hair, and blue eyes.

When Lin Yan's gaze looked toward him, he also saw Lin Yan, and immediately stood up from his chair.

"Butler Grandpa, is this the cousin you spoke of?" The little boy looked curiously at Lin Yan and asked.

"Yes, young master. He is precisely your little aunt's child, who only returned to the family a few days ago," the old butler nodded from the side.

After confirmation, the boy walked toward Lin Yan, smiling as he stretched out his hand and said, "Hello cousin, I am your cousin, and my name is Beibei."

The moment he heard this name, Lin Yan was stunned for a split second: "Beibei?"

Thunderbolt Beibei from Dou Er?

Mu En's great-grandson, Tang Ya's boyfriend, Huo Yuhao's eldest senior brother?

Thinking of this, Lin Yan immediately looked at the black-haired girl in the hall.

Could it be that she was Beibei's child bride and elder sister, Zhang Lexuan?

Maintaining his composure, Lin Yan smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Beibei's, introducing himself with a smile: "Hello cousin, my name is Lin Yan."

Their two ages were quite close, and under Lin Yan's deliberate efforts, the two of them quickly hit it off. Through the conversation, he learned that Beibei's martial soul was the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, and he hailed from Shrek City.

At this point, Lin Yan confirmed that he was indeed the Thunderbolt Beibei he knew.

That being the case, the Douluo Continent he had transmigrated to was precisely situated in the Dou Er timeline.

Beibei was only three months older than him, which meant he should be about a year and a half to two years older than Dou Er's Son of Destiny, Huo Yuhao.

Calculating by time, at this moment Huo Yuhao should still be suffering and enduring hardship in the White Tiger Duke's Estate.

Lin Yan instantly had the feeling of parting the clouds to see the clear sky; everything became completely transparent!

"Cousin, in that case, this time you left Shrek City to go obtain a spirit ring?" Sitting down together, Lin Yan asked curiously.

"Mn, I'm planning to go obtain a spirit ring together with my elder sister, and we happen to be passing by Nine Treasure City, so we came to see Grandma," Beibei explained.

"In that case, this elder sister is also a Soul Master?" Lin Yan looked toward Zhang Lexuan.

Regarding the figure Zhang Lexuan, he actually liked her quite a bit. Strong strength, good personality. The pity was that in the original work's ending, she and Beibei did not have a good outcome.

One could say their relationship was wrong from the very beginning.

Zhang Lexuan should never have appeared by Beibei's side in the identity of an elder sister in the beginning. With a dozen-plus-year age gap between them, the young and naive Beibei would only truly treat her like an elder sister.

It was precisely because he did not know Zhang Lexuan was his fiancée that he quickly grew close to Tang Ya during the age when his heart first stirred for romance.

By the time he knew Zhang Lexuan was his fiancée, it was already too late; he had already fallen in love with Tang Ya, and there was no longer any room for anyone else in his heart.

Thus, Zhang Lexuan became a tragedy.

She, who had originally intended to live out her old age in solitude, ended up forgetting her memories concerning Beibei in Heavenly Lovesickness Valley, and in the end seemed to end up walking together with a male Inner Court teacher.
