1036 Return (2/2)
Lin Haoming shouted out happily, ”Light the fireworks!”
Bam!
Bam!
The fireworks flowered in the sky, letting off a spectacular sight.
Lin Haoming rushed forth immediately, ”Daughter, you're back!”
”Father, mother, younger sister!” Lin Hanyu's face was beaming with a bright smile. Even though she had been returning once per year, Lin Hanyu was still ever so emotional for her return each time. The feeling of reuniting with one's close ones was something truly amazing for sure.
The four people behind Lin Hanyu had an indifferent expression on their faces. They did not bother too much about these mortals. All of these were just ants in their eyes.
They were only tagging along with their Junior Sister Lin to check out how the world of mere mortals was like, and that was all.
The sect that Lin Hanyu had entered was called the Hundred Flowers Palace. It wasn't one of the big sects, and could only be considered as a middle sized sects.
The nine sects and six residences et cetera were all prominent sects that had a legacy of hundreds of thousands of years. As for this Hundred Flowers Palace, it had only risen in the past tens of thousands of years. Compared to the Heaven and Earth Sect, there was a world of difference. There could be no comparison made at all.
”Father, these three here are senior sisters of my sect. They had been especially kind and caring toward me in the sect.” Lin Hanyu introduced. She then pointed out at the man beside them, ”This here is the son of the Grandmaster of the Metal Sword Sect.”
The moment Lin Haoming heard that, he was even more polite in his tone, ”Welcome, welcome!”
How could he not know what sect the Metal Sword Sect was? And when he heard that this was the son of the Grandmaster, he knew that it was an even more outrageous status there.
The son of a sect's Grandmaster! This was a super duper second generation, not someone that a mere mortal family such as theirs could compare with!
Ning Tiekun nodded his head without a single bit of expression. In fact, he didn't even speak of a single greeting of politeness.
”Big sister!” Lin Feixue and Lin Lan'er leaped over and hugged their big sister. After being separated for such a long time, they were naturally missing her badly.
When the son of the Metal Sword Sect's Grandmaster caught sight of Lin Lan'er, his eyes flashed with a glint. However, he hid it completely soon after.
”Junior sister, let us head over to your house to take a seat first, shall we?” Lin Hanyu's senior sister spoke up.
”Alright.” Lin Hanyu nodded her head.
Lin Haoming spoke up at this moment, ”Ah, Hanyu. The uncles of the seven other great families have already prepared a welcome feast for you guys. How about heading over to eat something first?”
At this moment, the Family Heads of the other seven great families waited with bated breath. But, a single sentence from the other side had them feeling awkward.
One of the senior sisters who had a slightly thin face with a protruding cheekbone remarked, ”There's nothing good to eat about the food of mere commoners. We'll head over to your Lin Family to take a look first.”
The moment Lin Hanyu heard that, she nodded her head awkwardly, ”Father, I guess let's forget about it.”
Even though Lin Haoming was evidently somewhat displeased in his heart, he still put on a chirpy smile, ”Alright, alright! Let's head home then!”
”Oh, right! Darling daughter, what good news did you say you were going to tell your father?” Lin Haoming asked.
”Father, I'm already an Outer Sect disciple of the sect now!” Lin Hanyu declared happily.
”Good, good! Being an Outer Sect disciple is wonderful! Very well done! I'm sure you will be able to catch up to your younger brother before long!” Lin Haoming chuckled out as he said this.
”Father, has little brother not returned home yet?” Lin Hanyu asked. In her heart, she had been worrying about Lin Fan all this time.
”No.” Lin Haoming shook his head.
At this moment, Ning Tiekun spoke up, ”Hanyu, your younger brother has been accepted by the Heaven and Earth Sect as a disciple. However, it is not safe in those big sects in the slightest bit. All of those secret grounds are extremely treacherous as well. There's a high chance of people dying there.”
With these words of Ning Tiekun, the entire atmosphere in the air turned awkward. At this point, Lin Haoming's heart was burning with a ball of flames. Was this fella trying to insinuate that his son was dead?
But, when he considered the identity of the other party, he let out a smile still nevertheless.
”Let's head back first.”
