As Shentu Nantian's mind was injured, Shentu Hai and Shentu Feng were also injured. The first day of the Desolate Heaven technique tea session, which was supposed to last until sunset, ended early.
Shentu Nantian was the star of this Desolate Heaven technique tea session. The Shentu family clan wanted to use this tea session to let Shentu Nantian build a good relationship with the upper echelons of the Lin family. At the same time, he could showcase his personal strength, and let the old fogies of the Lin family open their eyes.
However, with the situation turning out this way, the stage they had set up was ruined. The Shentu family clan felt disgraced.
There was still the older generation's Desolate Heaven technique showdown, which was the highlight of the show, but now, it had been delayed to three days later.
After the tea session ended, the Shentu family clan gathered a few Elders to study why Shentu Nantian's Four Images Seal collapsed at the final moment.
However, after a few of them came together to study it for a long time, they still could not figure out the reason.
To them, this was too much. This was because other than the Thousand Hand Granny, no one else had come into contact with the Four Images Seal.
The only person involved, Shentu Nantian, could only give a vague description.
This made the Thousand Hand Granny's old face scrunch up.
She was most afraid that there was a problem with the heritage itself.
As a heritage found in a mystic realm by the Shentu family clan, the Four Images Seal was of course a genuine ancient Desolate Heaven technique heritage. There was no doubt about it. However, the Thousand Hand Granny was afraid that the Four Images Seal needed to be combined with other Desolate Heaven technique heritage.
In the martial world, there was no lack of cultivation technique manuals that needed another cultivation technique as a foundation. If not, it would result in damage to Yuan Qi, or even Qi deviation.
As for the failure of Shentu Nantian's Four Images Seal, the Thousand Hand Granny never thought about it. At the Desolate Heaven technique tea session, there were many experts. With so many people watching, with so many eyes and spiritual energies covering the entire square, who had the ability to bypass the perception of so many people and secretly attack?
…
As the Elders of the Shentu family clan were racking their brains to figure out the problem with the Four Images Seal, Yi Yun, the main culprit, was participating in a victory celebration at the Lin family's Splendid Peak.
Actually, with Yi Yun's character, he did not have much interest in such banquets. If he had the time, he might as well spend it cultivating.
However, Su Jie had already made it clear. The Matriarch had already pointed out that this celebration was held for the Desolate Heaven technique tea session, and Su Jie was the main character of this banquet. If the main character did not participate, then this banquet would lose most of its meaning.
It was Yi Yun's first time in the Lin family after all, so it was best to keep a low profile. If Yi Yun did not accept the invitation personally sent by the Matriarch, it would inevitably cause people to criticize him for being arrogant and not knowing how to appreciate favors.
Jin Xiu Peak was not one of the 18 main peaks of the Lin family. It was a small mountain located on the outskirts of the main peak. Jin Xiu Peak was only half the height of the 18 main peaks, but there were many spiritual springs and seas of flowers on the peak. It could be described as a beautiful cluster of flowers, and that was how Jin Xiu Peak got its name.
Usually, other than some stewards and odd-job workers, there weren't any disciples of the Lin Family living there. Whenever the Lin Family had an internal banquet, it would be held on Brocade Peak.
At this moment, within the Silken Palace that was halfway up Silken Peak, there were a few hundred people gathered within a magnificent and grand hall. Amongst these people, there were only a few elders of the Lin family. The rest were juniors who were about the same age as Yi Yun.
And amongst these elders, there was Yi Yun's cheap master, Su Jie, as well as the Lin family's Matriarch.
The Matriarch was leaning on a dragon-headed walking stick. Her white hair was tied up in a bun, and there was a jade hairpin in the bun. At this moment, the Matriarch was looking at Yi Yun with a loving smile.
"Little friend Yun, welcome to the Lin family. Your master, Su Jie, is a guest of the Lin family. You can treat the Lin family as your own home. There is no need to feel restrained here."
The Matriarch said these simple words. When the surrounding juniors heard this, they secretly envied Yi Yun.
There were many disciples in the Lin family. Many direct descendants would never have the chance to speak to the Matriarch their entire lives.
But now, at the Lin family's victory celebration banquet, the Matriarch had treated Yi Yun with respect. She had even specially welcomed Yi Yun. This treatment naturally made them envious.
As direct descendants, the treatment they received was inferior to an outsider like Yi Yun.
However, this was something that could not be helped. Who asked Yi Yun to have such terrifying talent in the Desolate Heaven technique?
"This junior thanks the Matriarch. This junior is flattered by the Matriarch's kindness." Yi Yun humbly bowed as a junior. The Matriarch's smile became more radiant, as if she was even more satisfied with Yi Yun.
"This is a banquet for you young people. An old man like me will not join in." The Matriarch only said a few words before leaving. "Xintong, go and have fun with them."
The Matriarch turned her head and said to Lin Xintong, who was behind her.
Lin Xintong was still dressed in a spotless white dress today. However, she had an additional jade hairpin in her hair. It made her look less otherworldly, but more charming.
"Alright, I'll help you out."
Lin Xintong smiled at Yi Yun before leaving with the Matriarch.
The victory banquet had officially begun. Without the Lin family's elders, the juniors were even more relaxed.
To the Lin family's disciples, they spent most of their time cultivating. Occasionally, when they were free, they would be restricted by the family's rules, so it was rare for them to party.
This time, with the victory banquet, many young boys and girls were completely relaxed.
And Yi Yun was no doubt the center of attention.
"Senior brother Yun, my name is Lin Caiyun. I am also learning the Desolate Heaven technique, but after two years of learning, I have not made much progress. I can barely refine relics of the lowest grade." A girl who was about 14 or 15 years old, with a petite figure and a pair of big eyes that could speak, looked at Yi Yun without blinking. "Senior brother Yun, your Desolate Heaven technique is so powerful. Do you have some secret? If you have time, can you give me some pointers? "
"Uh, I am also a rookie in the Desolate Heaven technique. I am still learning a lot of theories. The techniques I know might not even be as good as yours."
After Yi Yun ate a little, he quickly realized that he had suddenly become very popular with girls.
One girl after another came over, using all sorts of reasons to hit on Yi Yun.
Of course, most of them were discussing the Desolate Heaven technique.
Just as the girl with big eyes left, another girl with a voluptuous figure came. She was about ten years old.
"Hehe, little brother Yun, your Desolate Heaven technique standard is not bad! However, warriors need to have some self-defense methods. Are you interested in learning swordsmanship? Big Sis can teach you! "
The girl's voice was soft and it made people feel very comfortable listening to it.
Yi Yun felt somewhat helpless. He had been in this strange world for more than two years, but he had never been courted by a girl. Today, there were five or six of them.
"There's no need. I have no plans to learn swordsmanship from others for the time being." Yi Yun could only refuse. In terms of swordsmanship, Yi Yun had extraordinary attainments, so he naturally had no plans to learn from others.
"Junior brother Yun."
At this moment, a clear voice rang in Yi Yun's ears. Yi Yun turned his head and saw Lin Xintong dressed in white. She looked like a fairy from a painting.
After she sent off the Matriarch, she returned to the victory banquet.
The moment Lin Xintong appeared, the few girls around Yi Yun tactfully retreated.
Amongst the Lin family's juniors, Lin Xintong's status was extremely special.
Lin Xintong revealed a smile. She transmitted her voice into his ears and said softly, "This victory banquet has the intention of letting the younger generation get to know each other. The Matriarch already wants you to stay in the Lin family."
"Oh?" Yi Yun was stunned. He somewhat understood the meaning behind Lin Xintong's words. So this victory banquet was just a pretense, and it was more appropriate to call it a matchmaking session.
Yi Yun knew that with the talent and future he had shown, he was a rare talent for the Lin family.
And the Lin family's girls were willing to marry Yi Yun. Yi Yun was already very handsome, and with his outstanding talent, it was easy for an excellent youth to gain the favor of girls.
Furthermore, by marrying a Desolate Heaven Master, his future martial arts path would be smoother. He would not be lacking in various resources. In a large family clan like the Lin family, the girls in the family were not as reserved and shy as the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom's aristocratic girls. They would pursue whatever they wanted.
"The Matriarch is probably willing to see you marrying a girl in the family. This way, the relationship will be more stable. Maybe in the near future, there will be a matchmaker who will matchmake you. Sometimes, the children of a family clan marry very late, but get engaged very early."
Lin Xintong said with a faint smile. It was unknown what she was thinking.
Yi Yun pinched his eyebrows speechlessly after hearing this. This was reasonable. For the Tian Yuan world's family clan system, marriage was indeed a rather solid relationship.
"Oh … There's one more thing." Lin Xintong suddenly changed the topic and her voice turned slightly serious. "Although the Shen Tu family clan suffered a huge setback at this Desolate Heaven technique tea session, but … there are even more Elders supporting the Shen Tu family clan in the Lin family …"
"Oh?" Yi Yun's eyebrows pricked up. This was not good news. If the Lin family and the Shen Tu family clan were to form an alliance, ignoring Lin Xintong, just Yi Yun's identity would not be able to be concealed forever.
Lin Xintong's warning to Yi Yun was clearly because of this.
Actually, Lin Xintong's marriage was something that would happen much later. However, the alliance between the Lin family and the Shen Tu family clan would be formed very quickly.
This was of course not what Yi Yun wanted to see.
"Is it because the Shen Tu family clan has displayed many ancient Desolate Heaven technique inheritances?" Yi Yun asked. He knew that these ancient Desolate Heaven technique inheritances were extremely tempting to the Lin family. Especially if the Shen Tu family clan was willing to share some with the Lin family, it would be an extremely generous offer!
"This is only a small part of the reason …" Lin Xintong gently shook her head. "The most important thing is that the Shen Tu family clan has finally agreed. They are willing to first refine a few relics from the peerless Great Empress ancient recipe for me to try … Before this, the Shen Tu family clan was unwilling to do so, because every relic from the ancient recipe requires an extremely high cost."
When Lin Xintong said this, Yi Yun was stunned. The Shen Tu family clan was already able to refine relics from the ancient peerless Great Empress' recipe!?
