I'm the protagonist's dad, but the heroines want to kill me

He didn't expect that Lin Chong did not follow the original novel, but instead decided to go to the five major academies. Anyway, the plot was so distorted, he didn't care.

In fact, the five major academies are very good in terms of early development. Just like when they were in the inheritance space, the Sword Saint said that his skills in using spiritual power were not good enough. The five major academies have specialized research on these knowledge and skills. If you can learn a few percent of their foundation and connotation, you will benefit a lot.

The selection competitions of the five major academies are held in the second half of each year in Anling, the imperial capital of the Li Dynasty, and hosted by people from the five major academies.

The five major academies in the Li Dynasty accept a lot of students every year, just like the granddaughter of the great elder of their clan, Lin Xi, who is from the bottom of the five major academies, Linghua Academy.

Because this academy only accepts girls, otherwise, with Lin Xi's ordinary strength and talent, she would not be able to enter the academy.

Precisely because Linghua Academy is a women's academy, it is difficult to accept women who are of the right age and have good talents. Naturally, its overall strength ranks last among the five major academies. Although it accepts so many women every year, there are still relatively few who are truly outstanding compared to other academies.

The other four academies, from lowest to highest, are Songling Academy, Tianli Academy, Shengqiong Academy, and Canglong Academy.

These five major academies recruit students from all over the mainland every year, and the number of students admitted to each academy in each region is different.

It's a bit like the college entrance examination in the previous world. Some colleges and universities recruit more students in some regions and fewer students in some regions. But in the Li Dynasty, the top two, Canglong Academy and Shengqiong Academy, recruit very few students, maybe only a few places.

After all, they are the top two academies among the five major academies. The gap between the other three academies and these two is quite large, and their foundation and student quality are not as high as those two.

Lin Ran didn’t know whether his son’s current ability would allow him to enter a better academy through the selection. He himself had not participated in the academy selection that year and didn’t know much about it.

He thought of the woman Meng Qing. That girl was well-read and should know a lot about the five academies and the advantages and disadvantages of each academy.

I don't know if he has returned to Xinzhou...

……

At night, on a high mountain somewhere in Xinzhou, Zhongyu, it was late autumn and the withered yellow leaves dyed the entire forest red. On the top of the mountain, there was a mansion. In front of the mountain path leading to the mansion, there was a blue stone with a few large characters "Qingjing Peak" engraved on it.

Judging from the strength of the writing, these words seem more like those written by a woman, exuding a sense of elegance and agility.

There is a cliff behind the mansion, and on the edge of the cliff stands a woman in plain white clothes. The woman stands on the edge of the cliff, not afraid of the steep cliff, standing there straight, quietly looking into the distance.

The wild mountain wind made her dress flutter and her long black hair fly. When anyone looked at her pretty face, which was elegant and extraordinary, he would be shocked. People often use the word "beautiful as a fairy" to describe a woman's beauty, but no one knows how beautiful a fairy is. But seeing the girl at this moment, perhaps he would have the answer.

Such a fairy, standing on the edge of the cliff, with the bright moonlight gently shining down, her whole body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light smoke and mist, seeming real and illusory, as if not a person of this world.

After a long time, a voice broke the atmosphere of this painting.

"Mengqing, why didn't you tell me when you came back?"

The woman in white, called Meng Qing, turned around and saw a beautiful woman in her thirties wearing a green dress who appeared behind her. She bowed quickly and said respectfully, "Master, when I just returned to the sect, you were still in seclusion and practicing. I was unable to greet you in time. I know I was wrong!"

The beautiful woman in green frowned slightly and carefully looked at the disciple who had just returned from training. After a while, she asked in a cold voice, "Did you gain anything from this training?"

"My disciple has gained a lot from this training and has broken through to the Lingdan realm!" Meng Qing responded softly.

The beautiful woman in green looked at Meng Qing deeply, walked forward a few steps, took Meng Qing's left hand, rolled up the sleeve, revealing the white jade-like skin, and on the arm, there was a small green lotus pattern.

After seeing the green lotus, the green-clothed lady's voice became a little softer than before, but her face was still as cold as black ice. She said, "I see you've been looking out from this cliff, like a woman waiting for her husband."

"Master, please don't joke with me. I will always remember your teachings!" Meng Qing lowered his head slightly and said calmly.

The beautiful woman in green remembered that Meng Qing always wore a jade bracelet on her left hand. Why didn't she wear it this time? She couldn't help but ask, "Where is your jade bracelet?"

"I nearly lost my life at the ancient ruins, and the jade bracelet was destroyed at that time!" Meng Qing said.

The blue-clothed lady's eyes flickered over Meng Qing's face, and after a long moment she said, "Practice hard, remember the teachings, and do not lose your tranquility!"

"Disciple will always remember Master's teachings!" Meng Qing bowed and expressed his gratitude.

The beautiful woman in green flicked her sleeves, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared from the spot.

Meng Qing was the only one left standing on the edge of the cliff. She stood there for a long time, and when she saw that it was almost time, she returned to the mansion and to her secret room where she practiced alone. The secret room was not big, and in the middle there was a stone bed made of extremely icy jade. Cold fog like white snow lingered in the secret room.

Meng Qing gently stroked the stone bed with her bare hands. The scene at that time emerged in her mind, and her pretty face couldn't help but turn pink. When she realized that her mood was beginning to become unstable again, Meng Qing hurriedly sat on the stone bed and practiced. She recited the meditation technique dozens of times before she stabilized her mood.

She took out a low-level space ring from her female space ring. It was simple in both style and material. She looked at it quietly for a long time before she let out a sad sigh...

"You've caused me a lot of harm..."

Chapter 42 Before Leaving (Please Read)

Half a year passed in a flash. Lin Hongjia had to accept the tribe's request no matter what and return to the Celestial Clan before his coming-of-age ceremony.

Just yesterday, Lin Hongjia, who was still immersed in the joy of love, received news from the clan that someone would be sent to pick her up in a week.

Such news undoubtedly broke Lin Hongjia's good mood. He seemed rather depressed throughout the whole day, and the smile on his face was a little dimmer than before.

Lin Ran naturally noticed something strange about Lin Hongjia. He could immediately figure out that the only thing that could make this girl lonely was the incident of returning to the Hui tribe.

In the afternoon, in the study, Lin Ran was working at the desk, while Lin Hongjia was sitting on the recliner by the window in the study, staring blankly at the bamboo forest outside the window.

Lin Ran closed the notebook in his hand, stood up and walked behind Lin Hongjia, rubbed the latter's head, felt the soft black hair, and said with a smile: "Cheer up, it's just Hui people. You look so depressed, and it makes me unhappy too!"

"You knew?" Lin Hongjia looked at Lin Ran in surprise. She hadn't even said anything yet, so how did he know?

"Look at your bitter face..." Lin Ran pinched Lin Hongjia's cheeks and joked, "You have been like a happy person almost every day for more than half a year, but you suddenly become like this today. I can tell what could make you so unhappy if I think about it."

Lin Hongjia had a bitter face, and suddenly opened his arms to hug Lin Ran, burying his little face in Lin Ran's waist, and explained in a depressed mood: "The tribe sent a message saying that they will come to pick me up in a week. Even if I don't want to, they will force me to go back!"

"It's finally this day!" Lin Ran patted Lin Hongjia's little head and said with emotion: "This day has finally come. I remember that Jiaer, you came to the Lin family when you were a little over four years old, right?"

"Ok!"

Listening to Lin Ran's words, Lin Hongjia responded, "More than four years old, about twelve or thirteen years ago!"

Lin Ran's eyes flashed with nostalgia, and the past scenes emerged in his mind. He said slowly: "I still remember the scene when your father brought you here that day. You were wearing an ordinary little skirt, and you were cold and didn't like to talk.

When your father said he would leave you with us for upbringing, you held his hand tightly and didn't say anything, but it was obvious that you didn't want to stay alone in this strange place.

Your father still left you here, told me something and left in a hurry. I was glaring at you, but you didn't cry or make a fuss. You just stood there, looking at me stubbornly. When I pulled your hand, you were about to hit me.

If I remember correctly, it seemed that her stomach was growling, so she followed me to eat delicious food. What a glutton! "

"Are you annoying? You're bringing up all these old things!" Lin Hongjia's face turned red, and he punched Lin Ran angrily, but this did not interrupt Lin Ran's recollection. He continued, "You have been different from other children since you were young. You are very smart. Whether it is cultivation talent or other things I teach, you can learn them immediately, and even apply them to other situations.

However, because I was very pretty when I was young, I was bullied by other girls in the tribe, but I didn’t come to complain to me. I practiced secretly to become stronger, and then I beat them up. As a result, I didn’t have any friends in the tribe anymore.”

"Hmph, it's better not to have friends like this. He's so young and he's always talking about bastards and bastards. Beating him up is already giving him face. And he still talks about your... Forget it, I won't say any more..." Lin Hongjia snorted lightly, obviously still remembering the past very clearly.

"Are you still talking about me?" Lin Ran didn't expect that someone was actually talking about him, and he suddenly became curious.

Lin Hongjia looked up at Lin Ran and said hesitantly, "Do you really want to hear it? It's not a good thing. It's probably just gossiping by the people below, and then those kids heard it, and then they copied it and said it."

"Tell me, I know the situation of the Lin family back then. There were many people who didn't obey me. I won't be angry. Just tell me!" Lin Ran patted Lin Hongjia's head, letting Lin Hongjia let go of his hand. He went to the side to pour two cups of tea and sat on the recliner opposite Lin Hongjia.

Seeing Lin Ran's indifferent look, Lin Hongjia hesitated for a long time, covering his face with his hands, his face burning, and whispered: "They...they said that you are not good at that, and in order to inherit the position of clan leader, you went out to bring back two bastards. Some said that you went out to gain experience but the one you brought back was useless, so you came back in disgrace, and brought a child to prove that you are fine in that aspect. Others said..."

Lin Ran:......

He decided to take back what he had said before. He also wanted to be a time-space policeman to see who was gossiping and saying such insulting words. He would send the person to see the King of Hell to have a taste of his own medicine. Was that too much?

Lin Hongjia secretly saw Lin Ran's dark face through his fingers, and asked cautiously: "Is it true?"

Hearing Lin Hongjia's words, Lin Ran almost fainted from anger. He quickly drank a sip of water, suppressed the anger in his heart, and pointed at Lin Hongjia for a long time without saying a word.

When Lin Hongjia saw Lin Ran's expression, he subconsciously thought it was true. He stood up in panic, not caring about being shy, and said worriedly: "Why didn't you tell us about this hidden disease? There are very powerful people in our clan..."

Before Lin Hongjia could say anything, Lin Ran angrily slapped the stupid girl and said angrily, "What kind of nonsense is in your little head? You believe everything those gossipers say.

It's probably because many people were unhappy when the patriarch passed the throne to me, and now he has tilted a lot of resources to you, which makes you even more jealous.

It just so happened that I hadn't officially married yet, and suddenly there were two of you. Because your identities were unclear, but you enjoyed the treatment of the clan leader's children, you threw all the dirty water on me. At that time, I didn't show very strong strength, so naturally those people would gossip about me, understand?"

Lin Hongjia covered his forehead and nodded like a chick pecking at rice, his eyes darting around, not knowing what he was thinking.

Originally, Lin Ran wanted to reminisce about the past, but after this, he lost the mood. He was thinking about whether he should become a time and space police to catch those gossipers, but after thinking about it, he decided to give up. So many years have passed, and it wasn't a big deal back then. If everyone knew about it, he would have to make an example of them.

Suddenly, Jiaer stopped staying in his study and ran back. Lin Ran didn't think much about it. He still had things to do, so he continued to stay in the study and take care of the rest of the things.

……

A few days later in the evening, when Lin Ran was sitting cross-legged in his room practicing, there was a gentle knock on the door. When Lin Ran looked through his spiritual power and found that it was Lin Hongjia, he said, "Come in!"

He also got up from the bed and looked at Lin Hongjia who had crouched down and entered his room. He couldn't help but ask, "Why are you not sleeping at night and running into my room?"

When Lin Hongjia came closer, Lin Ran noticed that Lin Hongjia was dressed with extra care tonight. She was wearing the light blue brocade dress embroidered with a lotus pattern that he had given to Lin Hongjia before.

He knew Jiaer. Ever since he gave her this dress, which he had spent a lot of time sewing, the girl had only worn it a few times. She did wear it once when she went shopping with him. And this sudden incident tonight made Lin Ran feel a little heavy.

Lin Hongjia did not answer Lin Ran's words, but danced on the spot. She was wearing a light-colored silk skirt inlaid with silver, and her three thousand black hair fell to her waist. She smiled and spun around gracefully, with her silk sleeves raised, and she took small steps. Her clothes fluttered in the wind, and the look in her eyes was breathtaking.

After a while, Lin Hongjia slowly stopped and said with a sweet smile: "How is it?"

"When a fairy performed for me personally, how can I describe her with just one word: beautiful? She's as beautiful as a fairy from heaven!" Lin Ran teased.

Lin Hongjia rolled her eyes at Lin Ran and said coquettishly, "You must have said this to many women before, right?"

"Is this true?" Lin Ran suddenly thought about this question. He seemed to have said a lot of cheesy love words to that little woman Mu Qiqin before.

"Are you really thinking seriously about it?" Lin Hongjia shouted angrily, his voice getting louder.

Lin Ran was so frightened that he quickly cast a soundproof spell and paid attention to Lin Chong. After seeing that there was no movement, he breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lin Hongjia and said, "You are so loud, aren't you afraid that Xiao Chong will hear you?"

"Anyway, I'm leaving tomorrow. Just know it if you want to. It will just be difficult for you to explain it then!" Lin Hongjia chuckled with a bit of cunning in his eyes.

Seeing this little witch so proud, Lin Ran smiled and shook his head, but in the end it turned into a bitter smile. He took a sip of tea, trying to ease the bitterness in his mouth, and said, "You are leaving tomorrow, right?"

"Well, just tomorrow!"

Lin Hongjia sat down next to Lin Ran, tilted his head slightly and leaned on Lin Ran's shoulder, and said calmly: "So I want to stay with you before this, I have a lot... a lot of things to say to you, and I have something to give you!"

Lin Hongjia turned his right hand and an exquisite and thick wooden box appeared. He placed it on the table and gently opened it. Inside was a jade pendant. The jade pendant was long and transparent, amber in color, with dragon and phoenix patterns carved on it.

The most exquisite thing is that this jade pendant seems to be composed of two jade pendants connected by mortise and tenon joints, with a dragon on the left and a phoenix on the right, presenting an auspicious posture.

"Cut a cut on your hand and let your blood soak into the jade pendant!" said Lin Hongjia.

Although Lin Ran felt a little strange, he still did as he was told. He casually condensed a sword energy and cut a cut on the palm of his hand. The bright red blood slowly dripped onto the jade pendant.

When his blood dripped onto the jade pendant, the dragon carved on the left side of the jade pendant seemed to come alive, glowing with golden light and even emitting a faint dragon roar. His blood was continuously merging into the jade pendant, and the left side of the jade pendant gradually turned golden red.

Such a scene made Lin Ran feel very surprised. Although he didn't know the purpose of such a treasure, it was obvious that it was not an ordinary item!

……

Chapter 43: Unkind Visitors (Please Read)

"Okay, okay, that's all!"

When Lin Hongjia saw that the jade pendant on the left had completely turned golden red, he quickly stopped Lin Ran from bleeding. He took the hand and applied the ointment that had been prepared long ago. The cut healed at a rapid speed, and after half a minute it returned to its previous smooth and white appearance.

"It's just a small wound, there's no need for such a good ointment!" Lin Ran said with a smile. With his strength in the Lingdan realm, although he is not specialized in physical training, he can quickly heal this small wound with spiritual power.

"Anyway, there's plenty of ointment, so it won't hurt to apply a little!" After seeing that Lin Ran's wound was fine, Lin Hongjia also stretched out his hand and cut a cut on the palm of his hand. Blood dripped slowly from the palm of his hand onto the jade pendant.

Unlike Lin Ran's blood, Lin Hongjia's blood had a light golden color. When the blood melted into the jade pendant, the same scene as Lin Ran's occurred, except that Lin Hongjia's was the sound of a phoenix.

When the jade pendant turned golden red, Lin Hongjia was about to withdraw his hand, but was pulled over by Lin Ran. As he watched Lin Ran carefully treating the wound, Lin Hongjia smiled and just watched foolishly.

After treating the wound, Lin Ran looked up and saw Lin Hongjia's smiling eyes. He pointed at the jade pendant that had changed drastically and asked, "Won't you tell me what this is?"

Lin Hongjia picked up the jade pendant and explained: "This is amazing. This is the treasure of our Celestial Clan, the Dragon and Phoenix Jade. We are just activating this jade pendant, and then we can separate..."

With a little strength, Lin Hongjia easily separated the jade pendant into two halves. She handed the phoenix side to Lin Ran and kept the dragon side for herself. She said, "You hold the phoenix, and I hold the dragon. This way, we can each use this jade pendant to sense the other's distance and life or death."

"Is it so powerful?" Lin Ran looked at the jade pendant in his hand. It felt very warm and a little hot. It was magical.

"This jade pendant has other wonderful uses. I'll tell you later. I have something else to give you!" After Lin Hongjia put away his half jade pendant and the box on the table, he took out another box.

Lin Hongjia pointed at the box and said with a smile: "You open it this time and see what's inside!"

When Lin Ran opened the box, he saw a silver ring lying quietly inside, emitting a faint golden glow. It seemed that there were profound runes engraved inside the ring.

There were also complicated patterns on the surface of the ring, and on the inner wall of the ring, Lin Ran saw his name engraved, a single word "Ran".

Seeing such a unique ring, Lin Ran couldn't help but laugh. He rubbed Lin Hongjia's head and said with a smile: "It must have taken a lot of thought, right?"

"Hehe, as long as you like it, I'll help you put it on!" Lin Hongjia picked up the ring and put it directly on the ring finger of Lin Ran's right hand. She remembered that Lin Ran had said before that there were also meanings for wearing rings in different positions on the hand, and wearing it seemed to represent being in love.

After putting on the ring, Lin Hongjia explained the function of the ring: "This is a ring that can be used for teleportation. I set the teleportation point in my room.

No matter where you are or what danger you encounter, as long as the space there is not completely blocked, you can use this ring to teleport back to the teleportation point set up in my room.
