When the registration was about to end, there was an incident.
Everyone in the clan turned their gazes over and saw a young man walking into the arena while bathing in the snow.
Hearing that familiar voice, the parents were overjoyed.
"Elder Brother!" Feng Cheng and Feng Xin were about to shout out, but their parents covered their mouths with their hands as their expressions changed drastically. They could only whimper.
The clan's rules were not to be violated.
In such a solemn and solemn family ceremony, if they shouted loudly and attracted the attention of the family's law enforcement team and the head butler, they might be charged with violating the family's rules. Their family's influence was small and insignificant, and they could not afford to bear the consequences.
They looked at Feng Lin worriedly. Would the Head Butler let him off if he didn't participate in the ancestral worship ceremony?
Many gazes gathered on Feng Lin, filled with surprise and doubt.
It was very simple!
Feng Lin had been silent earlier, and they didn't know him at all. They only felt that he was extremely daring.
From the looks of it, he seemed to have just returned. He had even missed the most important annual event of the clan. This was a serious crime of violating the clan's rules and neglecting the ancestors.
To think that he didn't go out to hide and lay low for a while. Instead, he came back at such a sensitive time and wanted to participate in the clan's ranking competition?
Given the Head Butler's temper, he definitely wouldn't let him off easily!
Their gazes toward Feng Lin were filled with mockery and pity. It was as if they could see Feng Lin's miserable appearance when the clan's rules were executed later.
As the leader of the clan, the clan leader naturally wouldn't care about such trivial matters. He merely sat on the platform and looked at this scene coldly. His expression wasn't pleasant.
Beside him sat a young man who was lazily lying on a chair. His features were devilishly handsome. Although he was a man, he had a soul-stirring beauty.
"Eh?" His eyes narrowed slightly as he casually glanced at Feng Lin. At the next moment, he let out a soft 'eh' and straightened his body. He sized up Feng Lin from head to toe, his gaze turning extremely serious.
"Young Master Feng! What's wrong? "The clan leader asked, puzzled.
The devilishly handsome man's gaze became lazy again as if his previous wariness was just an illusion. He smiled and said, "Nothing much. It's just that I came across something very interesting! "
He leaned back on the chair again, not sitting in a proper manner.
He behaved so rudely before the clan leader, but the people around him treated it as if it had nothing to do with them.
The Patriarch himself did not care at all.
After all, in terms of status, this young man was much higher than him.
Although he was old, he couldn't control him!
Just now, Young Master Feng had clearly discovered something. However, since he didn't want to say anything, it wasn't appropriate for him to ask.
This was the first time the clan leader turned his gaze onto Feng Lin. He observed him seriously and started to value this unfamiliar clansman of his.
Despite being the focus of everyone's gazes, Feng Lin remained calm. He walked up to the clan elder who was in charge of the clan's ranking competition and said, "Feng Clan's clansman, Feng Lin! Register for the clan's ranking competition! "
The clan elder was stunned for a moment. He only felt that this youth had a calm and unruffled aura that was unforgettable.
He instinctively prepared to nod.
"Wait! He cannot participate in the clan's ranking competition! " At this moment, a deep shout rang out. The silver-haired, cold-faced butler had already led a group of fiendish clan's law enforcement team to surround them.
That elder's hand trembled and didn't record Feng Lin's name down.
"Interesting! I knew that the Head Butler would surely not let him off! "
"Missing the ancestral worship ceremony is no joke!"
"This kid is out of luck! The Head Butler will definitely punish him harshly! "
…
An uproar broke out among the Feng Clan's clansmen.
The demonic young man sitting beside the clan leader also looked at this scene with a hint of mockery.
Feng Lin?
What will you do next?
"Why?" Faced with the Head Butler's obstruction, Feng Lin was neither sad nor happy. He was a cultivator and had confidence in his heart.
"You're still asking why? The ancestral worship ceremony is the clan's top priority. As a clansman, you're actually absent. This is a great crime of neglecting your ancestors. According to the clan's rules, you must be confined for a month! "Seeing that he still dared to question, the Head Butler's gaze turned sharp as he reprimanded.
As the guardian of the clan's rules, he hated people who didn't abide by the rules the most. In his eyes, Feng Lin had completely become a stubborn black sheep and had to be punished severely.
Otherwise, if everyone were to be like Feng Lin in the future, where would the clan's rules go?
In public, he wouldn't say anything to Feng Lin and lower his social status for no reason.
The center of his brows furrowed as a formless pressure gushed over, causing people to feel fear in their hearts. They didn't dare to have the will to resist.
Waves of formless pressure condensed into a corporeal form, pressing down like a huge mountain, wanting to force Feng Lin to submit.
"Mental Gene?" Feng Lin's expression changed. When he felt this corporeal mental pressure, his expression turned strange.
No wonder this Head Butler always had an imposing aura around him, causing people to feel fear in their hearts and not dare to get close.
So it turned out that he had awakened the Mental Gene and could suppress people's spirits.
After seeing through this little trick, Feng Lin's expression didn't change at all.
Before his Mental Gene, which had been strengthened to the max, this bit of mental force was like a light breeze, completely ineffective. It was extremely laughable.
Feng Lin smiled lightly. "Ancestral worship is just a ceremony to worship our ancestors. I feel that as a descendant, continuously strengthening one's own strength and reviving the glory of our ancestors is the best way to worship our ancestors. I've only been cultivating in seclusion these few days and didn't notice the time. How can this be considered as neglecting our ancestors? There's no need to talk about breaking the clan's rules! "
(My spirit pressure actually failed!)
The Head Butler surveyed Feng Lin in bewilderment as if this was the first time he had met Feng Lin.
After not seeing Feng Lin for a mere three weeks, he could feel that this kid had undergone a heaven-toppling transformation, causing him to feel uneasy.
But under the watchful eyes of everyone, this kid kept talking back to him. Where could he put his reputation as the Head Butler?
"Cultivating in seclusion? You aren't even an interstellar cultivator and your vitality isn't even 3. What's the use of cultivating? You still dare to twist words and force logic! "The Head Butler coldly snorted. His prejudice against Feng Lin was still the same as before. "Go, capture him for me! Lock him up in the confinement room! "The Head Butler waved his hand and the law enforcers behind him pounced forward like wolves and tigers.
The Head Butler couldn't be bothered to say anything more to Feng Lin. In front of all the clansmen, he had to make an example out of Feng Lin and let them know how powerful it was to break the clan's rules.
Feng Lin swept a glance over and calmly said, "I want to see who dares to come forward."
Silver light flashed in the center of his brows as a formless wave gushed forth, instantly gushing out.
The expressions of the law enforcers turned sluggish as if they had been immobilized. All of them stood rooted to the spot.
Their faces maintained a malevolent expression, but their eyes were filled with terror and unease.
