At this moment, Lin Fenggu was burning with anger. If it was a Desolate Heaven technique mystic realm, she would have nothing to say if the Matriarch chose Yi Yun.
However, for a martial mystic realm, the spot should be given to Lin Yu.
"Matriarch!"
Lin Fenggu gritted her teeth, but the Matriarch was expressionless. She did not care about her. Clearly, she had made up her mind.
Lin Fenggu could only place her hopes on Yi Yun.
From her point of view, it was meaningless for a Desolate Heaven Master like Yi Yun to find any martial arts heritage.
"Yi Yun, think about it carefully. This Great Empress mystic realm is useless to you. Even a martial arts genius might not be able to benefit from it, much less you."
"Besides, there is danger to your life in the mystic realm. If you just stay at home and cultivate your Desolate Heaven technique, your future will be limitless. If you were to risk your life in the Great Empress mystic realm and encounter any disaster, you would regret it!"
"If you don't go, I can teach you some Desolate Heaven technique mystic techniques. I can also prepare a Desolate Heaven technique disk array for you."
Lin Fenggu transmitted her voice to Yi Yun using her Yuan Qi. Yi Yun smiled. Teach her Desolate Heaven technique mystic techniques? And give him a Desolate Heaven technique disk array?
Yi Yun might not be tempted by an old woman like Lin Fenggu's things. Besides, even if she had something good, she would not give it to him.
Yi Yun knew that at this family meeting, if he refused to go, Lin Fenggu would probably give him some despicable things. She would treat him as a bumpkin who had never seen the world.
Yi Yun slowly stood up and bowed to the Matriarch. He said, "This junior thanks the Matriarch for her kindness. This junior is indeed very interested in this Great Empress mystic realm. I plan on exploring it."
Yi Yun's words were slow, but when Lin Yu and Lin Fenggu heard it, their expressions turned extremely ugly.
"Alright!" The Matriarch smiled lovingly, "Then, this spot will be given to Yi Yun. The opportunity to enter the Great Empress mystic realm was all thanks to Yi Yun, so it is reasonable to give Yi Yun a spot."
The Matriarch was in charge of the Lin family's internal affairs, so her words were final. This was not a discussion with the other family Elders, but a fact.
At that moment, the elders present all had different expressions.
Many of them already had a suitable candidate in mind for this spot. Everyone wanted to recommend a direct descendant, and with Yi Yun taking up one spot, it undoubtedly made the remaining spots even fewer.
Everyone knew that Yi Yun had done a great job at the Relic Trial, so giving him a spot as a reward was reasonable.
But the crux of the matter was that giving the spot to Yi Yun felt like it was a waste.
"Ancestor!" Lin Fenggu could not help but say, "I know that it was Yi Yun who saved my Lin family from a disaster at the relic trial. However, the Patriarch said that the opportunity to enter the Great Empress mystic realm was also due to Yi Yun's efforts, but I don't agree!"
"The ones who captured Shen Tu Nantian and the Thousand Hand Granny was the Lin family. The ones who negotiated with the Shen Tu family clan was also my Lin family! Yi Yun was a junior. Even if he had seen through Shentu Nantian's plot, what could he do with his strength? If not for our Lin family's power, he would have been killed by the Shen Tu family clan! "
"Only with strength can one have the capital to be unyielding. It was my Lin family that had offended the Shen Tu family clan to obtain the location of the Great Empress mystic realm. This has nothing to do with Yi Yun! "
Lin Fenggu's words were said in an agitated tone. The reason behind it was acknowledged by the other Lin family Elders.
However, the Matriarch's expression was cold when she heard this. She only looked at Lin Fenggu with cold eyes.
The Elders who were familiar with the Matriarch's character knew that the Matriarch's expression meant that she was extremely displeased with Lin Fenggu!
Lin Fenggu's voice faltered and she did not dare to make another sound.
Facing the Matriarch, a figure who had been in charge of the Lin family for many years, she was also very afraid.
"If the Lin Clan is filled with people like you, recognizing the enemy as their family, slandering the virtuous behind their backs, and wishing for nothing more than benefits to fall into your own pockets, then the Lin Clan won't be far from extinction."
"Useless, jealous, greedy, selfish, unable to distinguish right from wrong, narrow-minded and short-sighted. What's the use of keeping a person like you in the family?"
When the Matriarch said these words, it was like a sharp knife stabbing into Lin Fenggu's heart.
Lin Fenggu was completely stunned. Her ears were ringing and she felt all the blood in her body rushing to her face. At the Lin Family's Elder's Council, she had been scolded by the Lin Family's Elder.
The Matriarch had even said, "What's the use of keeping a person like you in the family?"
Lin Fenggu's face was flushed red. The redness spread all the way to her neck. She stood there, unable to say a word.
Behind Lin Fenggu, Lin Yu had been standing stiffly in his seat. From the moment he stood up, he had not even finished his sentence before he was left standing there. It was extremely embarrassing.
Hearing the Matriarch settle the matter, he felt like his body had been hollowed out.
He felt that the gazes of the juniors around him had changed from envy and jealousy to pity.
After all, Yi Yun had the backing of the Matriarch. Even if he had a strong backing, he was still not as strong as Yi Yun.
"I … I can't accept this!" Lin Yu clenched his fists tightly as his body trembled slightly. He did not dare to say these words out loud, so he could only transmit his voice to Lin Fenggu. "I want to fight Yi Yun. In terms of martial strength, he is nothing! I can completely thrash him without a weapon! "
Lin Yu's Yuan Qi transmission was filled with indignation. However, Lin Fenggu shook her head and said, "What's the use of beating him? Do you think the Matriarch doesn't know that in terms of martial arts, you have left Yi Yun in the dust? But she doesn't want you to go because it is a reward for Yi Yun! "
When Lin Fenggu said this, Lin Yu was like a deflated balloon. Yes, so what if he completely defeated Yi Yun in a duel? So what if he completely thrashed Yi Yun?
In fact, the Matriarch would not even agree to his request for a duel. In the Matriarch's heart, Yi Yun's value was not something he could compare with.
"This matter is a foregone conclusion. Don't think of replacing Yi Yun, but … you can take advantage of the fact that the God Burial Abyss' demonic tidal force has not weakened to cultivate hard and reach the peak of the Yuan foundation realm. That way, you will not need to compete with Yi Yun for a spot. You might be able to obtain one of the remaining spots."
Lin Fenggu transmitted her voice. If he could settle for the next best thing, obtaining a spot above the peak of the Yuan foundation realm was not impossible.
"Peak of the Yuan foundation realm …"
Lin Yu's eyebrows twitched. If the God Burial Abyss opened half a year later, he could indeed break through to the peak of the Yuan foundation realm.
But if the time was shorter, then he might be able to break through, but it would inevitably affect his foundation due to his cultivation level advancing too quickly.
To a genius, it was not a good thing to break through too hastily.
"I understand …"
Lin Yu swallowed his anger and returned to his seat.
…
In this meeting, eight out of the ten spots were temporarily decided. There were still two spots to be discussed.
With the Matriarch's support, Yi Yun easily obtained a precious spot. For this, the upper echelons and juniors of the Lin family could not help but criticize him behind his back.
Many people believed that a family clan competition should be held to determine the ownership of the spots. This was the fairest way.
However, even if it was a family clan competition, it was difficult to determine who had better talent due to the difference in age.
Some people who had good relationships with Lin Yu felt it was unfair for Lin Yu. They believed that Lin Yu was a genius, but he was being suppressed by the family clan. As for Yi Yun, who had average strength, he had obtained such benefits because of his backer. It was too unfair.
This matter could easily cause dissatisfaction in people's hearts.
But this time, Lin Fenggu did not add fuel to the fire. After being severely reprimanded by the Matriarch, Lin Fenggu had already restrained herself. She knew that if she were to discuss this matter behind the Matriarch's back, it would be equivalent to badmouthing the Matriarch. She did not dare to do anything that would make the Matriarch unhappy. If it reached the Matriarch's ears, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Time will prove everything." While people were discussing this matter, Lin Fenggu said with certainty. Her expression was filled with confidence, "Even if Yu 'er does not obtain a spot below the late-stages of the Yuan foundation realm, it's fine. As long as Yu' er breaks through to the late-stages of the Yuan foundation realm, he can still obtain one of the two remaining spots."
"True gold fears no fire. Once he enters the Great Empress mystic realm, Yu 'er will prove his worth. When that happens, Yu' er will use his results to shut up those people who see Yu 'er as a joke. He will also let those without true ability know what a genius is and what strength is!"
The "those without true ability" that Lin Fenggu mentioned was naturally referring to Yi Yun. However, she did not dare to say it out loud.
Yi Yun did not care about these discussions. After the meeting ended, Yi Yun entered a chamber and began his reclusive training.
The Great Empress mystic realm's opening was at most two to three years, and at least a few months. No one knew when the demonic tidal energy in the God Burial Abyss would fall to its lowest point.
Yi Yun planned on using this time to digest the pure Yang energy in the Purple Crystal.
At the Relic Trial, Yi Yun had completely swallowed the pure Yang energy essence from the Great Empress relic. Now, this energy was stored in the Purple Crystal, and it was time to convert it into strength.
He knew that his strength would make a huge leap in a short period of time!
Not only Yi Yun, the other juniors who were selected to enter the Great Empress mystic realm were also making the best use of their time to cultivate. As for the two empty spots, it made the juniors of the Lin family, who had hopes of being selected, work hard day and night.
Everyone knew that this trip to the Great Empress mystic realm was of great importance. If they were lucky enough to obtain a great opportunity, it would be like a carp leaping through the dragon's gate. Their future would be limitless!
That was the heritage of an ancient peerless Great Emperor. In comparison, many of the large family clans in the Tian Yuan world were not on the same level.
Besides, if they could obtain the ancient recipe to treat Lin Xintong, they would receive an unknown amount of glory and benefits. There might even be a sliver of hope of winning Lin Xintong's heart.
In the Lin family, as long as they were blood relatives beyond three generations, they could marry. Many people did not have any blood relationship with Lin Xintong.
With such great benefits in front of them, everyone's eyes turned red.
"I will make the Matriarch regret it!" Under the bright moon in the sky, a blue-clothed youth stood on a cliff. He stabbed his sword into the rocks. His eyes were filled with deep indignation. He was Lin Yu.
"Life is full of ups and downs. Those who look down on me, Lin Yu, will be slapped in the face by my results!"
