Remember, if you don’t want the Li Dynasty to lose their place because of you, just be honest, okay? "

Hua Feng nodded his head like a chick pecking at rice. Lin Ran smiled and patted Hua Feng on the shoulder, then went into Jinling Chamber of Commerce with Li Yuhan.

But after Lin Ran left, Hua Feng's face was uncertain. He stared at the corner where Lin Ran disappeared, his eyes full of resentment, and thought to himself: "Jiang Ran, right? You even made up this Honghuang Holy Land and Master Gu Qiu. I'm going back to the capital and ask my family to come and kill you."

……

After Li Yuhan took Lin Ran upstairs, she took Lin Ran's hand and hurried to her study, closed the door, and turned on all the sound insulation protection measures.

Lin Ran looked at Li Yuhan's behavior and couldn't help but teasing: "Are you going to do something inappropriate to me?"

"Yes, yes. Not only will I rape you, I will also dump your body in the wild. What do you think? Are you afraid?" Li Yuhan rolled her eyes at Lin Ran. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She pointed at Lin Ran and said angrily, "Take off your mask first. It's annoying to look at!"

"Don't you like this look very much? You blush every time you see it. Isn't he handsome? It makes my heart beat fast." Lin Ran did not take off the mask. He even moved closer to Li Yuhan and pretended to look at her affectionately.

Looking at the face in front of her, Li Yuhan's pretty face was faintly flushed and pink, and she suddenly shouted loudly: "I just like it like this, so what, let's talk about business!"

Lin Ran stopped teasing Li Yuhan, took off his mask, and sat down on a recliner he saw in the study.

Seeing Lin Ran acting like a big shot, Li Yuhan said angrily: "Why did you say I was that bastard's wife just now!"

"Why?" Lin Ran said meaningfully: "I am taking care of his wife for him!"

Li Yuhan was stunned for a moment, and after chewing on these words carefully, she suddenly realized what was going on and couldn't help but asked coquettishly, "Do all men like this?"

"Whether you like it or not is another matter. In fact, have you ever thought about just becoming Hua Feng's wife? You just need to stop him from touching you. You can also use the power of the Hua family to help you grow." Lin Ran just happened to think of those palace fighting dramas where the women did this. It's actually quite feasible.

"I have thought about it, but I haven't found a way to stop that guy from touching me. And if this goes wrong, I won't be able to bear the wrath of the Hua family. It's better to do as I thought before and let Hua Feng get into trouble and take the initiative to cancel the engagement."

Li Yuhan said this in distress, and suddenly remembered what Lin Ran said just now, and asked: "Hey, the Honghuang Holy Land you mentioned today, and Gu Qiumeng, are they made up or are there really such forces and people?"

"What do you think?" Lin Ran did not answer, but asked back.

"It should be true. You even asked that idiot Hua Feng to inform his elders. I'm afraid only the top figures in the Li Dynasty know about this force?" Li Yuhan said with a smile.

"You are still very smart. There is nothing wrong with telling you this." Lin Ran explained with a smile: "Honghuang Holy Land is the most powerful force in the Eastern Region. The Li Dynasty has to pay tribute to it with a large amount of materials every year in exchange for the quota to become a disciple.

The Li Dynasty holds a Dynasty Conference, and the top five will get a chance to go to the Great Desolation Holy Land for further study. This happens every fifty or sixty years, and there is an age limit. It is basically a game for the royal family and the three great families."

"What's the identity of that Gu Qiumeng?" Li Yuhan added, "From the name, she sounds like a woman!"

"The strongest person in the Honghuang Holy Land, the actual controller, has an immortal level of strength, but no one knows his exact strength. He is like a dragon that is hard to find, and seems to be experiencing life everywhere.

Don't look at me like that, I don't know him, so I just made it up. Anyway, they don't dare to verify it. Even if they come to my house, they are only looking for Jiang Ran, and it has nothing to do with me, Lin Ran. "Lin Ran said lightly.

With a fake identity, it feels much more satisfying to get things done and then get slapped in the face.

"You are relaxed, but I am in trouble." Li Yuhan sighed and said with a wry smile: "Hua Feng probably went back to get help. If he really comes, how should I deal with it?"

Lin Ran spread his hands and said innocently: "You are playing dumb, what can I do? This matter has nothing to do with you, it's just Hua Feng who is making trouble. You don't know my identity, you just know that I came here to discuss business, that's enough, and maybe Hua Feng can't even get help back."

"What about my engagement? You promised to help me. If you just walk away, I will... I will..." Li Yuhan thought of reasons to threaten Lin Ran for help, but it seemed that none of them would work on Lin Ran.

Lin Ran glanced at the surging waves on Li Yuhan's chest, smiled and nodded: "Her breasts are quite big, is that where your brain is."

"You called me a big-breasted and brainless person!" Li Yuhan pointed at Lin Ran angrily. She found that she was always taken advantage of by this guy.

"Why are you so angry? I still have a business deal to discuss with you!"

"Serious or not?"

"Seriously, I want you to help me find the things on this list. I'm going to hold a clan competition in a while to select talents." Lin Ran took out a list and handed it to Li Yuhan.

Li Yuhan took a few casual glances and saw that they were not rare treasures, so she agreed: "I can help you find these things and give you the best price. In return, you have to keep your promise to me. Integrity, you know?"

"Ms. Li, I'm looking forward to our cooperation!"

Lin Ran stretched out his hand. Li Yuhan took a look and stretched out his hand generously. He gritted his teeth and said, "If possible, I really don't want to cooperate with you. I will always suffer losses."

"Ms. Li, it is a blessing to suffer a loss!" Lin Ran smiled, rubbed Li Yuhan's small hand lightly, and slipped away in Li Yuhan's murderous gaze.

After seeing Lin Ran leave, Li Yuhan sat back in her seat. She thought about what Lin Ran said today about the Honghuang Holy Land. How could the patriarch of a small place, even if he was at the Lingdan Realm, know so much about these things?

This reminded her of the time when she investigated Lin Ran. The report she got back contained almost no useful information.

"It seems that this guy has had a lot of opportunities while gaining experience outside, but why did he come back to bring his son? And his daughter seemed to have suddenly appeared. This guy has a lot of secrets!" Li Yuhan murmured in a low voice. She became more and more curious about Lin Ran's past story.

Chapter 18 Conversation in the Back Hill

Linshan City, Lin family, somewhere in a remote back mountain cliff, on the edge of the cliff, a girl in a light blue dress stood elegantly, her black hair dancing in the mountain breeze.

The girl looked at the dusk in the sky. The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky red. The color was brilliant like a rose, but it made people feel a little lonely. Such a beautiful dusk only appeared for a short time.

She watched quietly for a long time, until the horizon was covered with the black night sky. Then the girl slowly spoke, her ethereal and pleasant voice echoing in the deserted mountains.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say!"

As soon as the girl finished speaking, in the space behind her, it was as if a golden pen drew a door of light, and a figure walked out of it. He looked like an old man with white hair and beard, wearing an elegant white robe. The most eye-catching thing was that there were strange patterns on the old man's face, which emitted a golden light.

As the old man walked out of the space door, the patterns on his face disappeared again. He knelt on one knee respectfully, looked at the girl with her back to him, and said respectfully: "Miss, good evening!"

The girl slowly turned around, revealing her beautiful face. It was Lin Hongjia from the Lin family.

Lin Hongjia looked at the old man, his eyes flashing with impatience, and said in a cold voice: "What's going on in the clan? Don't tell me to go back, it makes me upset."

Old man: “….”

So what can he say?

"Miss, whether you like it or not, I still have to say this."

The old man said earnestly: "There are already many voices in the clan that are dissatisfied with you. They think that you not only wasted time and resources, but also didn't even get the secrets of the Lin family. Some people even asked you to come back immediately, but the clan leader stopped you.

Miss, why don't you choose to go back? The clan has better training grounds and better resources. With your talent and ability, you will soon shut up those people."

"I am happier here. Anyway, I will definitely go back before my coming-of-age ceremony, so don't worry about it!" Lin Hongjia said lightly. Seeing a light leaf falling, he couldn't help but reach out to grab it, playing with it casually, sometimes rolling, sometimes twisting, and using his fighting spirit to hold the leaf suspended.

"By the way, I asked you to investigate Lin Ran...Uncle Lin Ran's wife. Did you get any results?" Lin Hongjia asked the old man with a frown.

"There are some, but it's difficult to investigate because it happened so long ago. It's just..." The old man wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lin Hongjia: "Speak to the point!"

"Based on the information you gave us, young lady, we have narrowed down the scope and found out some secrets. Several decades ago, a relic was unearthed in the Eastern Region and was confirmed to be the heritage relic left by the ancient powerful Qing Emperor. That incident can be said to have caused a sensation throughout the entire Kyushu continent, and forces from all sides came out in full force. But the final result was that everyone suffered heavy losses and no one obtained the Qing Emperor's inheritance." The old man said respectfully.

"What does it have to do with what I want to investigate?" Lin Hongjia frowned and asked.

“There was a person who was suspected to have inherited the Green Emperor’s legacy, but he disappeared after being seriously injured. That person was the former Saint of the Spirit Tribe. Even the Spirit Tribe’s people were looking for her, but they searched the Eastern Region and couldn’t find the Saint of the Spirit Tribe. This made the Spirit Tribe very angry, and they made a fuss for a long time, but they stopped looking for her afterwards.

If we talk about the same forces as us, and the timeline was lost decades ago, there is only the former Saint of the Spirit Clan, but at that time the former Saint of the Spirit Clan was at the peak of the Immortal Realm, and was only one step away from the Saint Realm, which was a little different from the status of the Clan Leader Lin Ran, so I wonder if the young lady has chosen the wrong target. "The old man said respectfully.

In fact, the old man's words were relatively tactful. The gap was more than just a little bit, the gap was huge. One was the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Clan, the top prodigy on the continent at that time, but the other was the patriarch of a small dynasty in the Eastern Region, or the patriarch of a small family in a remote city. If they had not had a connection with them in the past, they would probably not have known that there was such a Lin family.

How could these two people be husband and wife? If the people of the spirit race knew about this, they would probably accuse them of slander.

"What was the name of the former saint of the spirit race?" Lin Hongjia suddenly asked softly.

"Her name is Mu Qiqin. I heard that she is a sister of the current leader of the Spirit Tribe, but there are no more detailed information. The Spirit Tribe has completely blocked all information in this regard." The old man answered truthfully, but the answer shocked Lin Hongjia so much that his brain seemed to be buzzing.

Lin Hongjia couldn't help but think of what she had heard in the woods. Mu Qiqin's identity was very mysterious, so mysterious that even Lin Ran herself didn't know. At that time, Lin Hongjia was full of curiosity. She wanted to know who she was. In fact, she just wanted to know what Lin Ran's ex-wife was like.

Although the other person was offline, curiosity still drove Lin Hongjia to find out.

But she never expected that it was actually the Saint of the Elven Clan. This made her simply unbelievable. But the facts were in front of her, the timeline matched, the name matched, and the degree of mystery and power also matched. How could it not be?

Why didn't the spirits look for him later? Why wouldn't they? He must have gone back. Why didn't they have any news? He must have violated a lot of clan rules and was punished. Family disgrace should not be made public.

The Spirit Clan is similar to their Celestial Clan in that they are not allowed to intermarry with other races. Basically, if they commit this offense, they will be subject to the most severe punishment. What's more, Mu Qiqin's offense was not an ordinary serious one.

The old man didn't know that the young lady in front of him had already had a brainstorm because of his words, and he said very diligently: "Miss, do you want to continue the investigation?"

Lin Hongjia came back to his senses, calmed down his inner restlessness, and said calmly: "No need, let's end this matter here. Tell my father that my thoughts are still the same as before. I will definitely go back before the coming-of-age ceremony, even if he urges me again."

"Miss, I want to ask a rather offensive question. Of course, if you don't want to answer it, you don't have to!" The old man looked at Lin Hongjia's face. If there was anything wrong, he would not intend to continue asking.

"Just say it. Of course, I reserve the right to pursue your case!" Lin Hongjia playfully flicked the leaves in his hand at the old man.

Old man: “….” He suddenly didn’t want to talk anymore.

"Ahem..." The old man coughed a few times deliberately to ease the embarrassment. He looked at Lin Hongjia and asked very seriously, "Miss, I see that you and Master Lin Chong have been quite close recently. The two of you often practice sparring and go shopping together. You also taught Master Lin Chong how to practice. I want to say something very disrespectful. Miss, do you like Master Lin Chong?"

After saying that, the old man carefully observed Lin Hongjia's expression. His delicate face gradually turned a little rosy. Suddenly, he turned around and faced the cliff, pretending to be calm and said, "Nonsense, don't talk about this kind of thing in the future, and watch me less. I am safe in the Lin family and don't need too much protection. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

The old man thought he could see through the thoughts of his young daughter, Lin Hongjia, and nodded respectfully in agreement. As for the young lady, he followed the clan leader's request and basically let her do what she wanted. He would come to check on her regularly and provide her with the necessary resources.

The people who were protecting the young lady were all withdrawn at the young lady's request. However, there have been more and more discordant voices within the clan recently. The old man who was originally the liaison has also become a part-time bodyguard to protect the young lady. Recently, he has been protecting the young lady or doing things according to her instructions, so he said what he just said.

"Jiaer, your father wants you to come back for dinner!"

Lin Chong's loud voice could be heard faintly at the foot of the mountain. Lin Hongjia quickly waved his hand and reminded him, "Go back quickly and stop spying on me. Every time you spy on me, I feel like I have no privacy."

"Miss, I'm just worried about you. After all, you are still young, and young people will always be impulsive. I'm afraid you will make some irreparable mistakes. If it really comes to that, I will be a sinner in the clan!" The old man sighed softly.

He hoped that the young lady would listen to his words. If she really did that in a moment of youth and impulse, he would definitely be the eternal sinner who would take the blame. The young lady was too important to their entire Celestial Clan.

If this really happened, it would cause huge uproar.

Lin Hongjia understood what the old man said, his face flushed, and he said in shame and anger: "What are you thinking about? Go back!"

"Yes!"

The old man responded, and a golden door appeared again, surging with strong spatial force. After the old man stepped in, the golden door disappeared.

After confirming that the old man had really left, Lin Hongjia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She had expected nothing. She thought the old man had seen something, but she didn't expect that he thought she and Brother Lin Chong were in love.

how can that be!

The reason why she has been staying with Lin Chong recently is that there is a guy who appears and disappears every day. After taking him to morning exercises in the morning, he disappears without a trace. There is also a troublesome old guy who is watching them, so she can't stick with him even if she wants to.

Just because she was bored, Brother Lin Chong asked her to help him practice fighting skills, so she has been spending more time with Brother Lin Chong recently. Unexpectedly, she was misunderstood.

But it seems that this misunderstanding is actually a good thing for her. If people knew that the person she likes is Lin Ran, there will definitely be more trouble, and Lin Ran may be held accountable and implicated. But if the object is Lin Chong, it will be different. Which one is more outrageous and unacceptable, an old cow eating young grass or young people loving each other? It is undoubtedly the former.

Lin Hongjia couldn't help but look up at the night sky. The stars were already hanging on the dark curtain. After a moment, he smiled gently.

"No matter what, only by constantly becoming stronger can you truly be with him. Hongjia, you have to work hard. Happiness must be fought for by yourself!"

PS: I felt a little unwell today, and that drilling machine was drilling the floor frantically right in front of my house early in the morning. It didn't stop until five or six in the evening. He is a really dedicated civil engineer.

This book has finally been signed, and there will be recommendations in a few days. I wonder if I should update more often at that time. I will do my best and strive to keep updating!

Chapter 19: The Hua Family’s Response (Please Collect)

The capital of the Lee Dynasty was called Anling.

Built in the mountains with the most abundant spiritual energy in the Li Dynasty, the imperial palace of the Li Dynasty is located in the center of the area with the most abundant spiritual energy. The huge and luxurious palace even has a special formation that continuously gathers the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.

The three major families in the royal capital are the Hua family, the Zhan family, and the Mo family.

It is located on the outskirts of the imperial palace, with the imperial palace as its center. The outskirts of the imperial palace is the most prosperous area of ​​the Li Dynasty. In addition to the three major families, the headquarters of the Jinling Chamber of Commerce is also located here.

On the wide and clean marble street, several carriages galloped past and stopped in front of a large and low-key mansion. If you looked up at the plaque above the mansion, you could see the two words "Hua Family" written in powerful strokes.

The person who got out of the most luxurious carriage was Hua Feng, the son of the head of the Hua family.

As soon as Hua Feng got out of the car, he rushed into the Hua family and came to his father's yard. As soon as he entered the door, he cried like a ghost, tears streaming down his face, crying: "Father, you must make the decision for me!"

Hua Xiong, who was drinking tea with his father in the yard, heard the miserable roar. His hands trembled and the expensive tea spilled on the ground. Hua Xiong slammed the table, stood up suddenly and glared at his son who came back like he was attending a funeral: "You bastard, you cry as soon as you come back. I almost cried to death because of your shouting!"

"Hello, father, hello, grandpa!"

When Huafeng saw that his father and grandfather were there, he quickly stood up straight, and his originally sad expression turned into a playful one.

"Xiaofeng, didn't you go to Linshan City to win over the Lingdan Realm master from that small place? Why are you back? Did the win-over go wrong, or did the other party ask for too high a price?" The speaker was an old man sitting on a chair, drinking tea in small sips, with a ruddy face, white hair and beard, and a sturdy and strong body. He was also the elder of the Hua family, the father of Hua Xiong, the head of the Hua family, the grandfather of Hua Feng, and Hua Yunlong, a Nirvana Realm master of the Hua family.

"Um...Grandpa, I haven't visited that clan leader yet!" Hua Feng scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"You bastard, you didn't even come to visit me, why did you come back!" Hua Xiong was about to hit him, Hua Feng quickly shrank to Hua Yunlong's side and said, "I was bullied as soon as I arrived in Linshan City. I saw a pretty boy touching my wife and beating up all my men."

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Xiaofeng, come and sit down and talk to grandpa properly!" Hua Yunlong's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he patted the stone chair next to him.

After Hua Feng sat down, he spoke out all the grievances and bitterness he had suffered, exaggerating everything. When talking about the Honghuang Holy Land, Hua Feng said arrogantly: "Grandpa, that pretty boy even made up a story that he came from some Honghuang Holy Land, and that his master was called Gu Qiumeng. He was so arrogant. Who would believe such nonsense? Grandpa, you must help me teach him a lesson. He touched my wife and beat me, and..."

"Wait!" Hua Yunlong interrupted Hua Feng and looked at him seriously, asking in a serious tone, "Where did he say he was from?"
