Chapter 801 (2/2)
Lin Jing and Lin Jue had just arrived at this place when the voice of the Changyun Clan’s Elder Ancestor came once again:
“Come up…”
The direction of the voice was indeed from the towering mountain peak.
After hearing this, Lin Jing hesitated slightly, but after a brief moment of contemplation, he took Lin Jue and flew toward the mountain peak.
Although the mountain peak was very high, it was not a difficult task for Lin Jing.
In no time at all, Lin Jing had almost reached the top of the mountain peak.
It was then that Lin Jing heard a conversation between two people above the mountain peak:
“Back then, you, I, and Old Bai, the three of us, were truly too reckless, especially during our time at the Elixir Alliance; Old Bai often had to take the blame…”
…
“Yes…”
“It’s just us now, the others wouldn’t dare…”
“Looking back, that was when we were at our most spirited.”
…
“I didn’t expect to see you again.”
“But it’s not bad this way.
Before I die, to be able to see you one last time, it fulfills a wish of mine.”
The one who spoke these words was the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan.
After this sentence was spoken, there was a pause of silence.
A moment later, another voice spoke:
“Are you truly prepared to stake your own life and perish together with Ye Mingyi?”
The Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan laughed in response, quite carefree:
“At this point, since my lifespan is nearing its end, it’s already a foregone conclusion.
Leave the Ascension Pill to Old Bai, and I only hope he can succeed.”
“As for that remnant of the Ye Clan, under no circumstances can we allow him to continue living,
“If he does not die, whether it’s your Lin Family or our Changyun Family, we will all ultimately be destroyed by his hands.”
…
“Ah…!”
“The Lin Family…”
The other voice sighed.
It was just then that the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan’s voice came again:
“Since you’re here, don’t just stand there, come over and see your Elder Ancestor.”
This, of course, was said to Lin Jing and Lin Jue.
In fact, Lin Jing had already reached the summit, but hearing the two in conversation, he hadn’t had the heart to interrupt them.
Now, hearing the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan say this, Lin Jing understood and directly headed towards the center of the mountain top.
Atop the mountain peak was a small courtyard.
Lin Jing and Lin Jue bypassed the large bamboo forest in front of the courtyard and then arrived at the gate of the small yard.
As soon as they arrived, the door to the courtyard automatically opened.
Afterward, Lin Jing and Lin Jue entered the small courtyard together.
Upon entering the courtyard, Lin Jing saw two people sitting opposite each other in a pavilion filled with ancient charm to one side of the courtyard.
One was the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan, whom Lin Jing had seen before.
The other person appeared ethereal and translucent,
Indicating that he was not a solid being.
After Lin Jing and Lin Jue entered, both the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan and the insubstantial phantom turned their heads to look at Lin Jing and Lin Jue.
The phantom appeared to be an elderly man with silver hair, his old face carrying a kind expression and his gaze falling upon Lin Jing and Lin Jue.
At that moment,
The Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan beckoned to Lin Jing and Lin Jue, saying:
“Come and pay respects to your Lin Family’s Elder Ancestor.”
Lin Jing looked at the kindly old man, and even though it was their first meeting, he couldn’t help but feel an innate closeness.
Perhaps, this was the bond of bloodline inheritance.
Following that,
Lin Jing, accompanied by Lin Jue, moved closer to the pavilion, to the Supreme Elder of the Changyun Clan and the old man’s side.
Up close, the feeling of kinship emanating from his own body was even more apparent.
However, although he already knew the other was the Elder Ancestor of the Lin Family, it was still their first encounter, and Lin Jing found it somewhat difficult to adjust.
Nevertheless,
The appropriate etiquette was certainly not to be neglected.
Lin Jing bowed and saluted the phantom elder, saying:
“Elder…
Elder Ancestor!”
Seeing Lin Jing speak, Lin Jue, who had been following behind Lin Jing, also bowed and saluted in the same manner, addressing the phantom elder:
“We pay our respects to the Elder Ancestor!”
