In the front hall of the Ye Mansion, all the direct descendants of the Ye Family were having breakfast.
Only the sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding could be heard in the hall.
After breakfast, the servants cleaned up. Ye Nanxin, who was sitting at the head of the table, coughed and attracted the attention of all the Ye Family members.
However, from time to time, they would glance at Lin Qian who was standing next to Ye Nanxin.
In front of Lin Qian, the Ye Family members looked at him with complicated expressions. He didn't know what they were thinking.
However, he could clearly see that the little girl, Ye Lin, was staring at him with hatred.
After chatting with his future father-in-law yesterday, Lin Qian understood why this little girl didn't want to see him.
It was an incredible thing for a small city like Bashan City to have a direct disciple of the Divine Sword Sect.
Ye Xin had become the role model for the younger generation of the Ye Family. Ye Lin worshipped her cousin even more.
However, her cousin, who was like a goddess in her eyes, was going to marry a "cripple" without a Martial Spirit. Naturally, Ye Lin was furious and wanted to fight for the goddess she worshipped.
"Yesterday, I received two pieces of good news. The first is that the inspector of the Wanxiang Sect has decided to hold the Trial of Wanxiang in the Ye Family. According to tradition, the Ye Family can get two more places."
Ye Nanxin's words made the eyes of the Ye Family members brighten. They were overjoyed.
Their Azure Province was controlled by the sects, and their territories were divided. Ba Mountain City was a city that belonged to the Myriad Nature Sect.
The city lord of Bashan City, the master of the Bai Family, was an outer sect disciple of the Wanxiang Sect. However, his talent was limited, so he was sent here to manage the city.
Every time the Wanxiang Sect opened the mountain to recruit disciples, they would let the disciples of the sect carry out the duties of the inspector and go to the cities under the control of the Wanxiang Sect to recruit talented disciples.
The Wanxiang Sect was one of the top forces in Qingzhou. It was an honor for a family disciple to enter the sect.
If an outer sect disciple with limited talent could become the lord of a city, it showed how powerful the Wanxiang Sect was.
In every Ba Mountain Trial of All Creations, each family had a limited number of places. They were divided into upper, middle, and lower grades according to the size of the forces in the city.
The lower class had two spots, the middle class had four spots, and the Bai, Ye, and Li families had eight spots each.
However, no matter which house it was held in, there would be two extra slots.
All along, such a wonderful thing had been enjoyed by the City Lord's Bai Family alone. This time, it actually fell to the Ye Family. This puzzled the Ye Family present.
"Don't think too much about it. It's all thanks to Lin Qian that we were able to win the right to host this trial!" Ye Nanxin looked at the crowd and patted Lin Qian's shoulder. She said, "This kid is quite close to the disciples of the Wanxiang Sect. I can't believe he was able to convince them. You guys should all remember his good deeds."
However, Ye Nanxin's words didn't convince the others. They all looked at Lin Qian suspiciously.
In their view, it must have been Ye Nanxin who had given gifts to the Wanxiang Sect disciple. She had won such a good thing, but she had given the credit to Lin Qian.
A person without a Martial Spirit, how could he be close to the disciples of the Wanxiang Sect, and use his mouth to decide where such an important event like the Ba Mountain Trial of All Creations would be held?
What a joke!
But no one present could imagine that Lin Qian, as the true inspector, had the final say on where the Ba Mountain Wanxiang Trial would be held.
If he said it would be held at the Ye Family, then it would be held at the Ye Family. He really only needed to use his mouth.
"The second good news is that Lin Qian has returned." Ye Nanxin's words caused everyone to have strange expressions. They didn't think this was good news.
"I know what you are thinking, but Xin 'er's intentions have never changed. She will not marry anyone but this kid." Ye Nanxin scanned the Ye Family members in front of her and said coolly, "If you have any objections, go talk to Xin 'er."
Go talk to Ye Xin? Everyone couldn't help but shrink their necks. They didn't dare!
Lin Qian and Ye Xin grew up together. They were childhood sweethearts and had deep feelings for each other.
Even when Ye Xin was taken in by a terrifying expert of the Divine Sword Sect, it didn't change.
It was said that Ye Xin's master had a great background. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to accept such a genius disciple in the territory of the Wanxiang Sect!
Ye Xin's status was above the entire Ye Family. Who dared to criticize her?
Also, Ye Nanxin's attitude was so firm. She was the master of the family. How could they object to her words?
The only thing they could do now was to say in their hearts, "A flower stuck in cow dung!"
After saying all that needed to be said, the Ye Family members all stood up and left. Only Ye Nanxin and Lin Qian were left in the front hall.
After everyone left, Ye Nanxin took out a letter and handed it to Lin Qian.
After taking the letter from Ye Nanxin, Lin Qian's eyes were attracted by the letter.
The letter that Ye Nanxin handed to him was not made of paper. It seemed to be made of some unknown leather. There were many bloody lines on it, like a dense spider web, which was quite frightening.
"Uncle Ye, this letter is …" Holding the strange letter in his hand, Lin Qian raised his head and looked at Ye Nanxin confusedly.
"This letter was left by your father and mother. They said that they would give it to you when you were sixteen." Speaking of this, Ye Nanxin couldn't help but smile. "What a coincidence. You came back when you were sixteen. Why didn't you tell me where you went?"
Ye Nanxin's words reminded Lin Qian of that nightmarish place. His face turned gloomy. "A … bad place. A place where people eat each other!"
"How can there be a place where people eat each other?" Lin Qian's words made Ye Nanxin shake his head with a smile.
However, after staring at Lin Qian for a while, he sighed helplessly and said, "But you can't cultivate. You are just an ordinary person. You must have suffered a lot during the four years you were away from home."
"Only by suffering can one become an outstanding person." Lin Qian didn't take Ye Nanxin's words seriously. He smiled, revealing his white teeth.
"Good lad. If you can solve the problem of your Martial Spirit, I believe that you will definitely achieve great things in the future." Ye Nanxin nodded to Lin Qian. She looked gratified, but also a little regretful.
Martial Spirit awakening. A martial artist would definitely awaken a Martial Spirit.
However, if the Martial Spirit awakened was a weapon, he could naturally become a spirit warrior. If the Martial Spirit awakened was a farming tool, he could only be an ordinary person, a spirit farmer.
For those who awakened Martial Spirits like farming tools, scissors, and even teapots, their cultivation speed was extremely slow.
Only Lin Qian didn't have a Martial Spirit. This was the first time he had seen someone without a Martial Spirit. That was why his parents in this life thought that something was wrong and left to find a doctor.
However, no one knew that it wasn't that Lin Qian didn't have a Martial Spirit. It was just that his Martial Spirit was too strange, and outsiders couldn't detect it. That was why they mistakenly thought that he didn't have a Martial Spirit.
"Alright, Uncle Ye, I have to get busy with the Ba Mountain Trial of Wanxiang. The inspector has high hopes for us. If we disappoint him, then we will be in trouble." Ye Nanxin also stood up and said to Lin Qian before walking out of the hall.
"Uncle Ye, the inspector of the Wanxiang Sect will definitely not be disappointed." Seeing Ye Nanxin's back, Lin Qian suddenly shouted.
"You are not the inspector. If you say you won't, then you won't. Brat, don't run around and play missing again." Ye Nanxin looked back at Lin Qian and couldn't help but scold him with a smile. She then left with her hands behind her back.
Lin Qian shrugged and muttered helplessly, "Uncle Ye, I didn't mean to hide it from you. If anything goes wrong, it will be troublesome."
However, right after that, Lin Qian's attention was focused on the letter in his hand.
The letter left by his parents in this life!
