Chapter 246 The Truth
Early the next morning, Lin Changqing completed basic training.
He went to check on his grandfather first, but there was still no one at home. Lin Changqing simply went straight to the place where the clan leader often went into seclusion.
When they arrived at the place, Lin Changqing was about to cast a spell to trigger the restriction, but unexpectedly a crack appeared on it.
Then the clan leader's voice came out, "Qing'er! Just come in!"
Lin Changqing hurriedly walked in and saw the three people sitting inside. He quickly opened his mouth and greeted them: "Grandson greets the clan leader, grandfather, and sixth grandfather!"
Everyone inside was a grandfather, so he could only keep shouting.
"Qing'er, come here and sit down. When did you come back? Did you successfully complete the task given by our great-grandmother?" the clan leader asked!
"Replying to the tribe leader, I came back yesterday and the mission has been successfully completed.
When my grandson handed in his mission, he sent Zi Ya back to Chengxia Peak. Only then did he know that something happened to the family at the place of his great grandmother, so my grandson rushed back immediately! "Lin Changqing replied respectfully.
Hearing Lin Changqing say this, the clan leaders and grandfathers nodded in praise. Those who rushed back as soon as they knew something happened to the family were the real good sons of the Lin family.
The clan leader also said with a serious face: "It would be great if you could come back and contribute to the family!
Qing'er, the spiritual objects you contributed have been given to me by your grandfather. They are crucial to the development of the family.
The family has also adopted the strategy you contributed, and like the spiritual objects you contributed, it has been listed as the family's top secret and is currently known only to the three of us.
Due to confidentiality reasons, we cannot announce your contribution to your tribesmen, but this is only temporary!
I believe that one day, the family school will be able to record all the contributions you have made to the family in the family history, so that every member of the Lin family, and every subsequent Lin family cultivator, will know your contributions and efforts.
Originally, the spiritual objects you contributed should be converted into family contribution points, but the amount is really huge, and there is no way to explain it to the clan members!
So the three of us will keep it for you for the time being, and when the time is right, we will return it to you in other forms.
Of course, if you want anything, you can ask me directly. As long as the family or I have it, I can give it to you."
Lin Changqing was still very excited after hearing the words of the patriarch. After all, he grew up in the Lin family and had a very high recognition of the family.
Moreover, having received favors from the Lin family, he has always wanted to give back to the family. To him, those things he gave out were really nothing.
He supported the decision of the clan leader and knew that keeping it secret from ordinary clan members was the right thing to do.
Otherwise, the one who will suffer will be the weak Lin family. The sneak attack on Fourteenth Uncle this time is a lesson for us.
As for exchanging spiritual objects for family contribution points, Lin Changqing really doesn't care. Even if he is given hundreds of thousands of contribution points, he can't exchange them for the spiritual objects he needs. They are just a bunch of numbers, so he really doesn't care.
The patriarch said that returning the money in other forms would be more in line with his wishes.
“Don’t worry, Patriarch. I understand. I don’t care about those false names. What I did was just what a child of the Lin family should do within the scope of my ability.
Moreover, I was born here, grew up here, and may be buried here when I die!
So Jiufeng Mountain is the root of all of us. What I do is simply to give back to the family and make it stronger and more prosperous. "
Hearing Lin Changqing say this, everyone, including the clan leader, was deeply moved, especially Sixth Grandpa, who was so excited that he burst into tears.
It was probably Lin Changqing's words, "I was born here, grew up here, and will be buried here when I die," that touched his heart.
Sixth Grandpa Lin Fanxuan looked at Lin Changqing with satisfaction and tried hard to control his emotions.
Then he said to Lin Changqing: "Xiao Qing'er, you are indeed worthy of being the younger generation I look forward to, and the most outstanding descendant of my Lin family!
If you need to make an elixir in the future, feel free to come to me. Sixth Grandpa will give you a discount and only charge you 10% of the fee."
Lin Changqing was overjoyed. Other alchemists basically charge 30%. Last time he asked Sixth Grandpa to refine the Lotus Heart Pill, he only charged 20%. In the future, he will only charge 10%. This is a real discount. The twelve Earth Heart Lotuses in the inner space are all mature. There are also some other spiritual medicines and spiritual plants. If needed, they can be picked at any time and asked Sixth Grandpa to refine the pill.
Lin Changqing hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Sixth Grandpa. I won't be polite. With your promise, I will definitely come to you if I need anything in the future!"
Lin Changqing looked at the clan leader again and continued to ask: "Clan leader, what happened to Fourteenth Uncle? Did he tell us who attacked him? What is the clan going to do now?"
The clan leader smiled and said, "Don't worry, I shouldn't have told you this, but it has something to do with you. After discussing it, we decided to let you know!
It is true that your fourteenth uncle was ambushed by two foundation-building monks and was seriously injured, but he did not die. After our efforts, we have rescued him, and he just needs to rest for a while.
It was just that an idea suddenly occurred to me at that time, and I remembered your plan, so after discussing it with him, I asked him to fake his death and escape, so that I could carry out your plan. After all, that plan also needed a leader.
And in order to make the effect more realistic, only the three of us knew about it during the funeral, including your fifth grandfather, who was not told.
That is, they were worried that he couldn't bear it, so your Fourteenth Uncle only met with him afterwards. Now everyone else, including his family, thinks he has died."
Lin Changqing heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. At least his Fourteenth Uncle was not dead. They would meet again someday!
"So is this matter over? It's obvious that someone wants to suppress the Lin family, so they attacked Uncle Fourteen!"
“How is this possible? We are investigating the possible Foundation Establishment cultivators who might have taken action, and we have already ruled out a few.
Narrow the target to four or five families, and then someone will naturally bear the thundering blow of the Lin family!" said the clan leader with a murderous look on his face.
Lin Changqing nodded. Is that right? In this world of immortal cultivation where the strong prey on the weak, you should be tough when you need to be tough, kill when you need to kill, and sometimes you should let others see your strength.
He said to the clan leader seriously: "Then I will also participate at that time to avenge Uncle Fourteen and contribute to the family."
The clan leader thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay! Since you have this intention, someone will naturally notify you when it is confirmed!"
Lin Changqing responded quickly, and then remembering the main purpose of his visit, Lin Changqing organized his words a little.
Then he said, "Patriarch, Grandpa, Sixth Grandpa, this time my grandson came here because I need the help of all the elders.
The grandson and great-grandmother's descendant Chen Ziya experienced a lot of things together after their contact during this mission.
Now we both love each other and have already gone to Chen's house in Tongshan Village, obtained the consent of Chen Ziya's parents and family, and made a promise to spend the rest of our lives together.
But Zi Ya grew up in Qingyun Sect, and has always practiced with her grandmother, Senior Chen Jieyi, and her great-grandmother, so now she still needs to seek the approval of Senior Chen Jieyi and her great-grandmother.
Therefore, the grandson would like to ask the clan leader and the two grandfathers to come forward and find a suitable time to ask for marriage from Senior Chen Jieyi and the great grandmother. "
The news released by Lin Changqing stunned the three grandfathers, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.
It was the Sixth Grandfather who was the first to react. He laughed and said, "Good boy, you are the first to get the moon because you are close to the water! Not bad, you are really good!"
Lin Changqing's grandfather also asked, "Qing'er, is everything you said true? You can't joke about this kind of thing!"
Lin Changqing nodded seriously and said, "It's absolutely true. This is not a joke! We really love each other. I promise to marry her home!"
