Lin Family's old residence …
The Family Heads of the seven great families were gathered together and discussing.
"Those sect disciples that Hanyu brought back seem really tyrannical."
"I can tell that they're not taking us seriously at all. The way they look at us is as though we're beasts."
"That's not right, isn't it? How can they take us as beasts?"
"I'm just saying that. Anyway, that's how I feel."
"Hais, at times, if one's own strength isn't enough, they'll always be under someone else's roof. Look at Brother Lin. His children have entered the sect, and there's no news from his son for three years. Not only that, the senior sister that his daughter brought back is so haughty. I'm afraid Brother Lin is in for it right now."
"Should we head over to take a look?"
"No, we'll just be causing trouble if we head over. Let's check out the situation first."
"Alright."
The situation that the seven Family Heads had mentioned was really happening.
Lin Haoming was having a huge headache right now. These few fellas were just like their ancestors. After arriving at the Lin Family, they acted as though the Lin Family were their servants. If not for the fact that the other party was way too strong, he would have long since turned hostile.
On the dining table …
Lin Haoming did not sit at the main seat. It was Ning Tiekun who sat there instead.
"Everyone, please enjoy your meal." Lin Haoming said politely with a smile.
Lin Feixue, Lin Lan 'er, and Mrs. Lin sat there without saying anything. They could feel that something was wrong with the situation.
"It's alright. Mortal things are not suitable for me." Ning Tiekun said before taking out a pill and popping it into his tummy.
Out of the three senior sisters who had followed Lin Hanyu back, one of them had a rather decent relationship with Lin Hanyu. She then picked up her chopsticks and started eating. "Not bad. The taste is really good."
Lin Hanyu cast a grateful look at Senior Sister Xiao Yuya.
As for the other two senior sisters, they did not make a move just like Ning Tiekun. Evidently, they did not take a liking to it.
"Not bad. Eat more then. My daughter is in the sect. Thank you for your care, everyone." Lin Haoming said.
"Yu 'er, I heard from your father that you've become an Outer Sect disciple. How is it? Is it much better than before? "Mrs. Lin asked.
Lin Hanyu truly did not know what to say. In the sect, Outer Sect disciples could be said to not have much of a status at all. Compared to the Inner Sect, they were nothing more than ants. However, for the sake of her family's peace of mind, Lin Hanyu naturally nodded her head, "Yes, very good. After becoming an Outer Sect disciple, things are much better than before."
"As long as it's alright." Madam Lin let out a sigh of relief.
Lin Feixue and Lin Lan 'er buried their heads in their food.
Lin Lan 'er raised her head. "If only Big Brother was here."
"Father, has there really been no news from Little Brother for the past three years?" Lin Hanyu asked.
It was only after she entered the sect that she found out about the situation of the sect. The competition between the disciples was intense, and it was filled with danger. If there was no news for three years, the situation would be unimaginable.
Lin Haoming nodded, "Yes, it's been three years since we last heard from him. I wonder what he's up to."
"I think it's most likely going to be a disaster." Ning Tiekun spoke up.
He didn't care about the people around him at all.
Indeed, after Ning Tiekun spoke up, the expressions of Lin Haoming and the others changed slightly.
Lin Lan 'er even spoke up, "You're spouting nonsense! Nothing will happen to my Big Brother!"
"Huh?" Ning Tiekun's face changed as though he was getting a little angered.
Lin Hanyu knew about Ning Tiekun's background and was so scared that her face turned pale. She wasn't familiar with Ning Tiekun at all, and only had a senior sister who was familiar with him. This time around, she had three senior sisters with her, and bumped into this Ning Tiekun along the way. Therefore, she didn't know much about him either.
However, her senior sister was extremely polite to him. Therefore, she naturally knew that she couldn't afford to offend him.
"You're saying that I'm spouting nonsense?" Ning Tiekun's face tensed up as his anger boiled. When Lin Lan 'er caught sight of this, she was stunned as she sat there blankly.
"Young Master Ning, please calm down. Little Sister is still young and doesn't know much." Lin Hanyu said.
Senior Sister Xiao Yuya who was at the side spoke up on her behalf as well, "Young Master Ning, could you be angry because of this?"
Lin Haoming hurriedly apologized as well.
This time around, the people that Lin Hanyu had brought with her were things that they really disliked. However, there was nothing they could do about it. The other party was evidently far from simple. If they were to offend him, what could their Lin Family use to fight back against him?
Furthermore, their daughter was still in that sect. If they were to offend the other party, what were they to do if they were to make things difficult for their daughter?
"Hmph." Ning Tiekun snorted out coldly like a high and mighty king, "If there's a next time, I'll definitely kill you without mercy."
"Boohoo …!" Lin Lan 'er was scared to tears as she ran out immediately.
Lin Hanyu was a little enraged in her heart, but she did not dare to blow up.
Lin Feixue and Madam Lin chased after her.
Even though Lin Haoming was displeased in his heart, he could only smile out awkwardly.
When Xiao Yuya caught sight of the situation before her, she shook her head helplessly at Lin Hanyu, indicating that there was nothing she could do.
The status of this Ning Tiekun was extraordinary. He wasn't someone they could go against. Therefore, they could only bear with it.
The entire meal was exceptionally awkward. Lin Haoming and the others did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Even though Lin Hanyu was an Outer Sect disciple, she was just like an ant in the eyes of Ning Tiekun. There was no difference from cannon fodder.
The next day …
The news of Lin Hanyu's return had already spread out in the Rising Dragon City. However, everyone knew that there were some other people who had returned with Lin Hanyu. Those people's statuses were even higher than Lin Hanyu's in the sect.
Some of them wanted to get acquainted with them. However, when they heard that the other party did not even give face to the Lin Family, they naturally held it in. It was better to just forget about someone as difficult to get along with.
On the streets …
Ning Tiekun and the others were walking at the front while Lin Haoming followed behind them, introducing the situation of the Rising Dragon City to them.
Ning Tiekun raised his head up high as though he was looking down on everyone else.
Everyone who was passing by scattered away immediately, not daring to head up and take a look.
Lin Hanyu stood at the side, feeling extremely awkward and infuriated.
"Young Mister Ning, this is the most prosperous place in the entire Rising Dragon City." Lin Haoming said.
"Yes." Ning Tiekun nodded his head.
At this moment, Ning Tiekun's eyes lit up as he pushed Lin Haoming aside and headed up.
In that moment of carelessness, Lin Haoming was nearly pushed to the ground. Thankfully, there was someone supporting him.
The reason why Ning Tiekun was so excited was naturally because he had caught sight of familiar faces.
"Senior Brother Zhou, Senior Brother Wang, it's been a long time." Ning Tiekun came before a stall and cupped his fists.
When the two of them who were in the midst of buying some secular items heard this voice, they raised their heads and were stunned, "Oh! So, it's Brother Ning!"
Lin Haoming and the others headed up immediately.
Ning Tiekun looked at Lin Haoming and the others in disdain, "Let me introduce to you guys. These two are Inner Sect disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect, Brother Zhou and Brother Wang."
When Lin Hanyu's senior sisters heard their identities, they got a little emotional, "Greetings to the two senior brothers!"
The Heaven and Earth Sect was a major sect of the Endless Mainland. The Inner Sect disciples within were extraordinary, and not something that other sects like theirs could compare with.
The moment Lin Haoming heard that they were disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sect, he got emotional as he headed up to pull at the two of them, "May I ask …?"
But, before Lin Haoming could even speak up, Ning Tiekun's face changed as he kicked Lin Haoming away.
"Insolent! These two senior brothers aren't people you can pull at! Lin Hanyu, you had better keep your father in check! Otherwise, he's going to get into big trouble!" Ning Tiekun said coldly.
"You …!" Lin Hanyu could take it no longer as she sighed out and helped her father up, "Father, we'll ask again if there's a chance."
Lin Haoming nodded his head.
Ning Tiekun snorted out coldly before looking at his two senior brothers with a face full of smiles, "Senior brothers, how about letting your Little Brother here hold a welcoming reception for the two of you?"
"Thank you very much, Brother Ning!" The two of them did not have any objections at all. Since there was someone to hold a welcoming reception, they naturally couldn't ask for more.
At this moment, Ning Tiekun whispered to Lin Hanyu, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and get your father and those other family members to make preparations."
Lin Hanyu wanted to say something, but Xiao Yuya tugged at her and nodded her head, gesturing for her not to say anything more.
