Chapter 1607: Chapter 831: Return to Jinfeng Nation (Part 2)

It is precisely because of these factors that Lin Shigong’s mood at this time is so difficult to calm down.

And at this moment, being the one among them facing the greatest pressure, Lin Shikang still noticed the difference in Lin Shigong.

Although Lin Shigong hid it well, without a careful look, one wouldn’t notice any anomaly.

However, Lin Shikang, with his meticulous mind and being the eldest of the few brothers, is the pillar on whom the family has depended for over two hundred years.

With his understanding of Lin Shigong, combined with his special gaze, Lin Shikang could certainly guess some differences.

Thus, seeing Lin Shigong like this, Lin Shikang slowly spoke a sentence.

“Shi Gong, trust Tian Ming and Shi Lu!”

“Especially that young boy Tian Ming, he possesses an inexplicable charm, always able to accomplish things beyond expectation.”

“Furthermore, he sometimes does things that are hard to comprehend.”

“In my view, this time is indeed an opportunity for our Lin Family to rise; this prediction is mysterious, yet it can be truly felt.”

Upon saying this, Lin Shikang’s face remained calm, his eyes filled with confidence, conveying an undeniable sense of conviction.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Shigong nodded heavily, clearly endorsing what Lin Shikang said.

Additionally, his confidence in Lin Tianming is no less than that of Lin Shikang and the others.

Under such conditions, Lin Shigong certainly won’t doubt what Lin Shikang said.

Therefore, Lin Shigong’s mood settled, and his whole state returned to normal.

Afterward, Lin Shigong and the others chatted among themselves for a few lines.

During this time, Lin Shikang gave Lin Shihua some reminders, focusing on the subsequent development of the Luoyun Commerce Alliance, acting according to the pre-planned strategy.

Confidently, Lin Shihua agreed to this heavy responsibility.

Later, the group of several then bade farewell to each other and disappeared from the original place.

…

Jinfeng Nation, Starfire Mountain Range.

Qingyun Mountain, Lin Family Clan Grounds, inside Lin Tianming’s Cave Mansion.

At this moment, Lin Tianming, Qin Xi, Lin Tianfeng, and other senior clan members were sitting together, drinking tea and chatting.

At this time, Lin Tianfeng took a sip from his tea cup and then showed a worried expression on his face.

“Tian Ming, Fifteenth Grandfather has been gone for almost a year since he returned to Wei Kingdom’s Clan Land.”

“In such a long time, we don’t know what difficulties he might have encountered?”

“After all, the last time he and Yue’er came to Jinfeng Nation, it only took them half a year.”

“In contrast, this time, it’s been almost a year without any news—could he really have encountered some trouble?”

Lin Tianfeng said worriedly, with a look of concern on his face.

Upon hearing these words, Lin Tianming’s expression remained unchanged, seemingly unaffected by Lin Tianfeng’s hypothesis.

Yet, in fact, Lin Tianming’s heart also harbored some worry.

But to avoid causing anxiety among the others, he had to pretend calmness, showing an air of ease.

He did this to instill confidence in the clan members and to prevent any disruptions.

Under such circumstances, Lin Tianming adopted a focused expression and then comfortably reassured, “Brother, Fifteenth Grandfather is quite different this time from before.”

“After all, the clan members who hurried to Jinfeng Nation last time were no less than at the Fifth Level of Qi Refinement Realm.”

“In contrast, this time, according to the pre-planned strategy, he’s bringing a portion of the ordinary clan members.”

“Due to the long distance between Jinfeng Nation and Wei Kingdom, combined with the physical condition of ordinary clan members, they can’t be compared to cultivators.”

“Thus, Fifteenth Grandfather naturally needs much more time to get to Jinfeng Nation, to accommodate ordinary clan members.”

Just as the words fell, Qin Xi also didn’t forget to chime in.

“Brother, Ming is right!”

“You should know that the scale of clan members migrating this time is significant, including a large portion of ordinary population.”

“Given such a scale of clan members, taking into account the endurance of ordinary clan members, using Teleportation Formation is certainly unrealistic.”

“Thus, they can only rely on Flying Magical Treasure for the journey.”

“In such cases, doubling the time or even longer is reasonable.”

Qin Xi patiently explained, exuding confidence in her words and demeanor.

Sure enough, upon hearing Qin Xi’s explanation, Lin Tianfeng’s worried expression substantially eased.

For after thinking for a moment, Lin Tianming and Qin Xi’s words did indeed make sense.

More crucially, he harbors blind confidence in Lin Tianming.

Since Lin Tianming said so, there’s no point in worrying further.

Understanding this, Lin Tianfeng finally returned to normal.

Seeing Lin Tianfeng restored, Lin Tianming sighed a bit of relief, yet his mind remained contemplative.

In his heart, it’s impossible not to worry.

After all, though peace has mostly returned to Jinfeng Nation, remnants of the Golden Elixir Forces from Tianqing Sect, Xie Family, and Li Family might still be around.

If these forces truly aimed to retaliate against the Lin Family and happened to grasp some key intelligence, hence ambushing Lin Shilu on their route, it might indeed pose a significant threat.

Yet, this point is merely Lin Tianming’s assumption.

Realistically, for the enemy to achieve this, even though Tianqing Sect’s remaining forces aren’t weak, acquiring Lin Family’s secrets and acting against Lin Shilu, this probability can almost be ignored.

Because Lin Tianming has substantial confidence in Lin Family’s strategies, as well as in Lin Shilu.

Moreover, Lin Shilu surely understands these situations and has certainly made ample preparations to preclude any unnecessary crisis.

On such a basis, it’s evidently not an easy task for the enemy to achieve their goals.

Realizing this, Lin Tianming ceased pondering further, staying away from self-induced anxiety.

Thus, Lin Tianming and several others quickly returned to normal.

As for what followed, the group of several discussed the current situation in Jinfeng Nation, along with the movements on the Lin Family Territory.

During this time, they made further improvements to some familial strategies and arrangements.

As time gradually slipped by, an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, just as everyone was preparing to end the gathering, Lin Tianming suddenly revealed a hint of a smile on his face.

Seeing this scenario, the unaware Lin Tianfeng couldn’t help but ask, “Tian Ming, did something happen?”

Not only him, on the other side, Qin Xi also sensed Lin Tianming’s change.

Thus, at the instant Lin Tianfeng finished speaking, Qin Xi couldn’t help but urge, “Ming, could it be Fifteenth Grandfather has sent news?”

Upon hearing these words, Lin Tianming finally came back from his excitement.

Soon after, Lin Tianming laughed heartily and then proceeded to explain, “You guessed correctly!”

“Just now, Uncle Xing Yao sent a message saying Fifteenth Grandfather’s flying boat has already reached the edge of Starfire Mountain Range.”

“Following this trend, within perhaps the time of a cup of tea, we should be able to see Fifteenth Grandfather and the others.”

Upon finishing these words, Lin Tianming couldn’t help but urge.

“Brother, Xi’er, come quickly with me to the clan ground’s mountain gate to welcome Fifteenth Grandfather and the others.”

As the words fell, Lin Tianming directly stood up and immediately disappeared from the Cave Mansion.

Meanwhile, still sitting in the courtyard, Lin Tianfeng and the others glanced at each other, then couldn’t help but smile in excitement.

“Haha… Talk about thinking of a thing and then it happens!”

“Tian Ming’s reaction and speed, really unexpected!”

“Let’s go… We shouldn’t neglect Fifteenth Grandfather!”

Lin Tianfeng laughed aloud and immediately leaped up, disappearing from the sight of everyone.

Seeing this, the remaining ones couldn’t delay any longer, soon catching up with Lin Tianming’s footsteps, directly heading for the position where the clan’s mountain gate was after exiting the Cave Mansion.
