This person was very young, only twenty-one or twenty-two years old.
Very handsome!
Very handsome!
He was about 1.85 meters tall, had a slender figure, and a handsome face.
If it weren't for Bai Muye, there wouldn't be many people who would object to him saying that he was the most handsome person in the group.
Since there were only people from the Bai and Lin families present, almost everyone knew who he was.
Except for Xiao Bai and Lin Zijin.
But the Lin family members whispered to each other.
"Why did Bai Muxun jump out?"
"Shirō Makino doesn't give face to the Bai family. He's the grandson of the Bai family leader! Of course he jumped out. "
"I heard that he's also seen as the future successor of the Bai family."
There were many young girls in the Lin family who liked him.
However, the marriage between the Bai and Lin families had been broken off in recent years.
But that didn't stop the young girls from the Lin family from secretly liking him.
It was normal for a handsome and talented young man to be liked.
But many people didn't expect him to say such a thing on such an occasion.
It wasn't really appropriate for him to say such things.
Because everyone present, be it from the Bai or Lin family, was very clear about one thing.
Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin, these two descendants of the Bai and Lin families, didn't grow up in their respective families. They were sent to a godforsaken place like Three-Immortal Island to be raised as tools.
Therefore, their respective clans all owed them something.
But they didn't expect these two to be so stunning!
Not only were their looks amazing, but their talent was also amazing.
Even though the young disciples of the Bai and Lin families were all quite proud, they had to admit that anyone who could win the championship of the Empire League Tournament was no ordinary person.
Of course, there were those who looked down on the Empire League, but they were in the minority.
It was okay to be proud, but not to see the strengths and strengths of others, not daring to admit that others were better than them. These were all shortcomings, and they were taboo for the descendants of the large families.
Over here.
Shirō Makino held Lin Zijin's hand and greeted Lin Caixia, who had rushed out after hearing the news.
"Hello, Sister Xia!"
"Hello, Sister Xia!"
The way she addressed him shocked many people.
Sister Xia?
She could be a sister just because she was young?
No, she had to be beautiful.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be worthy.
Lin Caixia smiled and held Lin Zijin's hand. "You're prettier in person than in the video!"
He smiled at Shirō Makino and said, "Of course, Xiao Bai is also the most handsome young man I've ever seen!"
"Yes, I know." Shirō Makino smiled.
Lin Caixia: "…"
You know nothing!
Then, accompanied by Lin Caixia, the two entered the banquet hall of the Lin family.
From the beginning to the end, the two of them didn't even look at Bai Muxun.
Bai Muxun was originally questioning, but in the end, the other party treated him like air.
This awkwardness … was a slap to the face!
A look of astonishment appeared on Bai Muxun's handsome face.
He probably didn't expect that his brother from the same clan would treat him with such an attitude.
If he knew how Shirō Makino treated his grandfather, he wouldn't be so surprised.
"Shirō Makino!"
Bai Muxun stared at the slender figure and called out his name. "I'm talking about you!"
"Sister Xia looks younger and prettier than in the video. Are you 20 years old this year, Sister Xia?" Shirō Makino looked at Lin Caixia and asked.
"Hehe, I like you, little guy. You're good-looking and have a sweet mouth. Those who don't like you are blind." Lin Caixia was also mischievous. How could she not hear Bai Muxun calling her son-in-law? How could he not hear the latter part of the question that was directed at him by name?
But she just ignored him!
So what if he was the future successor of the Bai family?
He was so rude!
He wasn't cute at all!
He learned from Xiao Bai. He was civilized and polite. One look and you could tell that he was a good kid.
Most importantly, he was handsome!
The group walked in just like that.
They completely ignored Bai Muxun.
Many of the Bai family members couldn't bear to see him like that.
Someone came to Bai Muxun's side and whispered, "Young Master Xun, why bother with a wild kid who has never grown up in the family?"
"That's right. Young Master Xun, there's no need to pay attention to this kind of person. Why bother with him? He's not even a member of the Bai family. "
"Young Master Xun, don't be angry. Let's have a good drink later. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since I drank with Young Master Xun!"
"Haha, when has our Young Master Xun been afraid of anyone when it comes to alcohol tolerance?"
A group of young people joked and joked as they pushed Bai Muxun to the banquet venue.
Bai Muxun raised his sword-like eyebrows and said to Shirō Makino, "You're shameless. You don't deserve to be a member of the Bai family. I'm ashamed to have a member of the same family like you!"
"Yes, Young Master Xun is right!"
"He's not our brother to begin with!"
"Haha, there's almost no one left in his family, right?"
"There's still a cripple struggling at death's door …"
"Hahaha!"
The group couldn't help but laugh.
Although their voices weren't loud, Shirō Makino had already entered and heard them.
For a person with the mental strength of a Martial Grandmaster, it was not difficult for him to eavesdrop on these undisguised conversations.
Shirō Makino glanced at Lin Caixia and asked, "How much does Sister Xia know about the Bai family?"
Lin Caixia glanced at Shirō Makino and said softly, "The cripple they're talking about is your uncle, Bai Xiuping."
"You heard it too?" Shirō Makino was a little surprised. At the same time, he was surprised by the emotional intelligence of this elder, Zijin.
She was really perceptive. He didn't even point it out, but she already knew what he wanted to ask.
"What do you mean I heard it too? Isn't it new?" Lin Caixia curled her lips and glanced at Shirō Makino.
"Sister Xia, can you tell me about it later?" Shirō Makino asked in a low voice.
"Sure, it's not easy to meet the two of you. Let's have a good chat today!" Lin Caixia said with a smile.
Many people from the Lin family looked at them with envy in their eyes.
Lin Zijin couldn't help but ask, "What's your cultivation level now?"
She couldn't see through Lin Caixia's cultivation level. She always felt that Lin Caixia was unfathomable and seemed to be much stronger than her Master Fang Qing and Lin Caiwei.
Lin Caixia raised her beautiful eyebrows and said with a smile, "Not high, not high. I'm so young, I'm definitely not as good as the Empress of the Bai family."
Tsk!
Comparing herself to the Empress?
That's interesting!
She must be a God Realm expert.
She's also very outstanding!
A young God Realm expert, who may not even be a hundred years old, would be a great existence anywhere.
It was no wonder that the young disciples of the Lin family looked at them with envy.
They thought it was because she didn't wear a mask.
Shirō Makino thought to himself.
Then, the two were brought into the banquet hall by Lin Caixia.
Many people took the initiative to greet Lin Caixia, and most of them looked at Lin Zijin with a touch of friendliness.
Although they didn't take the initiative to come up to talk, they all looked kind.
This was a world of difference compared to Lin Qi's previous behavior.
Even though Lin Zijin still hadn't considered returning to the family, but she more or less agreed with what Lin Caixia had said before — they were all of the Lin family's blood, all of them were children of the Lin family, what was there to talk about leaving the family? Be it you, your parents, any child of the Lin family is the same. As long as they haven't committed a heinous crime and been expelled from the family, they are all descendants of the family!
Actually, if there were people like Lin Caixia earlier, Lin Zijin wouldn't have developed such a strong aversion towards the family.
If they were all like Lin Qi, she wouldn't recognize this family!
If only they could stay like this forever —
Lin Zijin thought to herself.
Following that, some important figures of the Lin family began to appear.
When these people came in, they all smiled kindly at Lin Caixia, and when their eyes swept over Lin Zijin and Shirō Makino, most of them also smiled faintly.
To be honest, who wouldn't want such outstanding descendants?
Since the family had wronged them, they should show a proper attitude.
They shouldn't treat them as juniors, and treat them with a superior attitude.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable if they did that.
But it was easier said than done, and there weren't many people who could do that.
The Lin family wasn't like this before.
Because of Lin Zijin, it wasn't as if they hadn't quarreled before.
But in the end, they couldn't win against Lin Caixia.
Not only was this woman's fists tough, but her mouth was even more formidable!
She could scold a group of people to tears just by herself.
So the happy and harmonious scene that Lin Zijin saw now was not as real as it seemed.
Behind the scenes, there were many struggles and struggles.
But these things, Lin Caixia wouldn't tell her.
Family gatherings were actually very relaxed, and there wouldn't be any overly serious topics.
Everyone was here to participate in the coronation ceremony of the new Emperor, and they were usually far apart from each other, busy with their own things. Now that they were gathered together, those who were familiar with each other gathered together, drinking and chatting happily.
Lin Caixia's place quickly became one of the gathering places of the Lin family.
It was impossible to talk about anything private at a time like this.
In fact, Lin Zijin and Shirō Makino were also the targets of many people's curiosity, but the descendants of the big families had their own reservations and pride. After coming over, many people surrounded Lin Caixia, toasted her, and listened to her teachings.
Then, inadvertently, some topics would be brought to Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin.
Of course, there were people who didn't like these two people, but with Lin Caixia here, no one dared to be too rash.
There was no one like Bai Muxun who picked a fight in front of them.
Shirō Makino thought to himself, "Although the Lin family also produced scum like Lin Qi and Lin Yue, the atmosphere of unity within the core members of the family is still very obvious."
To be honest, he was a little envious.
After three rounds of drinking, an elder of the Lin family took the initiative to come over with a glass of wine. He drank a glass of wine with Lin Caixia and said with some emotion, "Miss Xia, we haven't seen each other for many years. I remember when you left the family, you were only eighteen or nineteen years old …"
Lin Caixia smiled slightly. "Do you mean that I'm old now?"
"Hahaha, no, no, how can that be? Miss Xia's appearance is the same as before, but the group of us have all become real old fellows. We have finally lived to become the kind of people that we despised the most in the past! "
This elder actually didn't look that old. He looked to be in his fifties and was in good spirits.
One look and one could tell that his cultivation level wasn't low.
"Is there a hidden meaning in your words?" Lin Caixia smiled at this elder of the Lin family, who was a generation older than her.
The elder smiled and pointed at Lin Caixia with his finger. "You little girl …"
Lin Caixia smiled as she held her wine glass and lightly clinked it with the elder's glass. Then, she drank it in one gulp.
After the elder finished drinking, he looked at Lin Zijin and said, "What happened that year was a huge mistake in the family's decision. It was a mistake. Some people used the little bit of power in their hands and did whatever they wanted. They almost kicked out your talented disciples from the family. Today, I represent the family to apologize to you. I hope that you can forget the past. From today onwards, the family will be proud of you, but we will not ask for anything from you. The family will compensate you threefold for what you have done all these years … "
Lin Zijin smiled lightly, looked at the elder and said, "Whatever compensation, forget about it. But since you've said it so bluntly, I have two questions to ask. "
Many people saw this and thought to themselves, 'Got it!'
Instantly, they perked up.
"Ask away." The Lin family elder smiled.
Although everyone was still talking and laughing, they used their emotional intelligence to support the atmosphere in the banquet hall so that the sudden silence wouldn't make everyone feel awkward.
But in reality, almost everyone … including the higher-ups of the Lin family, were paying attention to Lin Zijin.
Lin Caixia smiled and didn't say anything.
Today's scene was actually caused by her after she came back!
The Bai family had an empress who didn't care about family affairs but was protective of her own!
The Lin family … also had a goddess who didn't want to see her descendants bullied even though she wasn't an empress!
Do you think you can cover up all the dirty things you did back then with just a few words?
No, you don't even want to cover it up. You still want to bully a child today?
Dream on!
My sister, Lin Caiwei, was bullied to that extent by you. I wasn't there at the time, so I can't settle the score now.
But you can try bullying my grandniece, Lin Zijin!
Lin Zijin looked at the elder and asked, "First, who are Lin Qi and Lin Yue's men? Second, who exiled my parents back then? Who made the decision to send me to Three-Immortal Island? "
As soon as these two questions were asked, the atmosphere in the banquet hall instantly became stagnant. The emotional intelligence of the Lin family's descendants was already a little overwhelmed.
Because these two questions were too sharp!
Lin Qi and Lin Yue disappeared in the Tianhu Sacred Land.
The Bai family's empress had appeared in the Tianhu Sacred Land.
The Fu Long Squad … To be precise, Shirō Makino and Lin Zijin were also in the Tianhu Sacred Land at that time.
Many things didn't need evidence. A lot of information could be gleaned from it with a little deliberation.
Lin Yue had personally tried to assassinate Shirō Makino.
He failed.
This matter was no secret within the Lin family.
Of course, this matter didn't have much to do with the Lin family.
At that time, Lin Yue was kneeling and licking King Qi's boots, wanting to get what he wanted from him.
However, what Lin Qi had done this time, if the Lin family said that it had nothing to do with him, it would be a little too much.
Lin Zijin had already shown extraordinary talent.
The elders of the Lin Family had already made a decision, hoping to summon back this proud daughter of heaven who had been wandering outside.
At this time, Lin Qi still dared to push Lin Zijin to the side of the Duan family of Tianhu.
It was really impossible to say that there was no one behind him who instructed him to do so.
If this problem could be explained, at most, he would stand up and take the blame. But the other question was too difficult to explain.
Because this was related to the real decision-making of the Lin family.
How could the person who could exile Lin Zijin's parents and send Lin Zijin to Three-Immortal Island be a small figure in the Lin family?
Therefore, as soon as Lin Zijin asked this question, the atmosphere in the banquet hall suddenly became solemn.
Everyone's chatting and laughter also became a little stiff.
Although they tried their best not to turn their heads to Lin Zijin, they all pricked up their ears.
The Lin family's elder still had a smile on his face, but the smile gradually became awkward.
He couldn't help but glance at Lin Caixia.
He seemed to be asking for help.
Lin Caixia pretended not to see it.
Are you kidding me?
Today, I called the lass here to seek justice for her and to help her vent her anger!
Have you forgotten how you quarreled with me at the Elders' Council?
If it weren't for my status and reputation, I would have beaten you up myself!
Since asking for help from Lin Caixia was useless, the elder could only bite the bullet and look at Lin Zijin. "I know a little about some of these things, but I don't know much about some of them. Girl, it's not a good time to talk about these things today. Why don't we … change the time? Let me understand it first, then I'll tell you in detail, okay? "
"No." Lin Zijin refused without hesitation.
She looked at the elder. "I'm not angry at you, unless you did all these things. I just want to know the truth. Since you called me back, since you made me feel good about the Lin family again, then I hope that all these things can be exposed to the light. Although I'm only 16 years old, I think I already have the right to know these things. "
A 16 year old grandmaster spiritual warrior!
Who dared to think?
Who dared to say that she didn't have the right?
It was a pity that no one in the entire Lin family knew Lin Zijin's true cultivation level.
But no one could deny the talent of this super beautiful girl.
No one could deny that she was very powerful!
Yes, she was only 16 years old!
Among all the young disciples of the Lin family, who was more outstanding than her?
"I will answer this question." At this moment, the head of the Lin family, Lin Quanyong, finally stood up and walked over. As he walked, he said, "I will answer this question!"
At this moment, the entire banquet hall was completely silent.
In this banquet hall, other than Shirō Makino, everyone else had the surname 'Lin'.
As for Shirō Makino, almost everyone knew that he and Lin Zijin were a couple, so he was not considered an outsider.
But if it was about Lin Qi and Lin Yue, it would be easier to explain. But if it was about the old grudges, even many people in the Lin family were not very clear about it.
In any case, when Lin Quanyong stood up, some people noticed that the expressions of a few people at Lin Quanyong's table changed.
"Lin Yue's assassination of Young Master Bai was an accident. It was his personal action. As the head of the Lin family, I guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with the Lin family."
The first question that Lin Quanyong answered showed his emotional intelligence.
Ever since the young girl entered, she refused to leave Shirō Makino. The two of them sat there with their fingers intertwined.
Obviously, compared to her own matters, she cared more about her boyfriend's opinion.
Indeed, when he said this, Lin Zijin's tensed little face relaxed a little.
Lin Quanyong came before Shirō Makino and said gently, "Although this was Lin Yue's personal action, I still apologize to you on behalf of the Lin family. A genius like you should not be treated like that. "
Shirō Makino stood up and nodded at Lin Quanyong.
He was an elder, and he had come personally to explain things to him. Naturally, he had to stand up and show his attitude.
When he stood up, Lin Zijin, who was holding his hand, also stood up.
Lin Zijin looked at Lin Quanyong and said, "May I ask who you are?"
Lin Caixia laughed coldly in her heart. This was the consequence of pushing your own child out from a young age. So what if you were the head of the family?
I don't know you!
Lin Quanyong's eyes flashed with embarrassment, but he still smiled and said, "I am Lin Quanyong, the head of the Lin family. According to seniority, you should call me uncle."
Lin Zijin smiled and looked at Lin Quanyong apologetically. "I'm sorry, I can't say it. Since young, I never knew that I had an uncle. You don't mind, do you?"
