Chapter 421 Lin Family, Arrogant [1 more]
The position of the supreme elder of the five major families should be held by the oldest and most powerful person.
Lin Zhushuang is not yet seventy years old this year, and according to her seniority, it is not her turn to sit in this position. However, her strength is indeed unfathomable and difficult to estimate.
It is said that even the current Lin family elders are unaware of his true strength.
In the mourning hall, the color red is a taboo, but Lin Zhushuang still ignored it and just barged in.
Behind her was Lin Shiyuan, who was dressed in plain clothes.
This was also the first time Ye Wanlan formally met Lin Shiyuan.
Lin Shiyuan was not as arrogant and high-profile as Lin Zhushuang. She just stood quietly behind Lin Zhushuang, with a veil covering her face, leaving only a pair of sharp eyes exposed.
"So it's Senior Zhushuang. Mother has mentioned you many times." Lin Wuyu said calmly, "It seems that today's meeting is indeed as the rumors say. You like to treat weddings as funerals, but the Jiangcheng Lin family is not our family, so we don't need your preference."
Lin Zhushuang looked towards Lin Wuyu suddenly, his gaze as sharp as a knife.
With a loud bang, a huge pressure rushed towards Lin Wuyu like a tide.
Lin Wuyu is an ordinary person who has no internal strength. Lin Zhushuang's unrestrained pressure can definitely break an ordinary person's bones in an instant.
Ye Wanlan stood up and put his hand on Lin Wuyu's shoulder.
However, at this moment——
"Zheng——"
The sound of the piano dispelled the momentary pressure from Lin Zhushuang and prevented Lin Wuyu from receiving any harm.
It was Lin Qin holding the Duyouqin.
Lin Qin was wearing white mourning clothes, with a cold face and no fear: "If you want to burn incense for grandma, change your clothes first, otherwise, leave!"
Lin Zhushuang frowned, she looked Lin Qin up and down, and suddenly said with a smile: "My elder sister has raised a good offspring. Okay, I'll give you a chance."
She really turned around and went out, then changed into a pure white dress in the car.
Lin Shiyuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
Sure enough, her guess was correct.
Before her death, Lin Weilan passed on her lifelong skills to Lin Qin.
Even though Lin Qin is unable to completely transform this internal force now, her foundation is very solid.
At this moment, Lin Shiyuan instantly saw through all of Lin Weilan's painstaking efforts.
First, Lin Qin was allowed to simply learn the guqin to lay a solid foundation, without being taught any musical techniques.
In this way, the family will not pay attention to Lin Qin, and there will be no need to recruit or suppress him in advance.
Lin Weilan waited until the last moment and then passed her internal energy to Lin Qin. In this way, Lin Qin not only possessed decades of skills, but also would not be affected by the backlash of the Heavenly Music Technique.
Lin Zhushuang had of course thought of this, and there was murderous intent in her eyes when she looked at Lin Qin.
More than forty years ago, during the Lin family's "twin stars" era, she was always outshined by Lin Weilan.
Lin Weilan's background was indeed not as good as hers. Her mother was a core member of the Lin family and was the third elder at the time.
And what about Lin Weilan?
Lin Weilan was just an ordinary member of the side branch, but she suddenly emerged at a concert, surpassed her and gained the attention of the Lin family.
But Lin Weilan didn't cherish it!
"Since Senior Zhushuang is grandma's younger sister, there is a difference between the elder and the younger, so you cannot stand to salute." Ye Wanlan took in the fleeting murderous intent in Lin Zhushuang's eyes. She smiled faintly, "Senior Zhushuang, please follow the rules and burn incense for grandma."
Lin Zhushuang frowned again and looked at Ye Wanlan, but for a long time he couldn't remember who he was.
In her impression, Lin Weilan only has one granddaughter, Lin Qin.
Since she is an irrelevant person, she has no right to give orders to her.
Lin Zhushuang did not look at Ye Wanlan, but just picked up the incense and stood in front of Lin Weilan's portrait without kneeling.
In the portrait, Lin Weilan had silver hair and fine wrinkles on her face, which was very different from Lin Zhushuang, who looked to be only in his early thirties.
"Lin Weilan." Lin Zhushuang said to herself in her heart, "When you betrayed the Lin family in order to protect that little thing, you should have known that you would end up like this."
Lin Jiayan is a boy, and boys have never been of much value in the Lin family.
However, Lin Weilan, for the sake of a newborn child, disregarded the overall interests of the Lin family and acted on her own, which was intolerable to the family.
Of course, Lin Zhushuang also wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Lin Weilan.
What Gemini?
She wants to be a unique genius!
As long as Lin Weilan is around, she will definitely divert other people's attention.
It’s a pity that the group of people retreated at the critical moment when they could have killed Lin Weilan.
Lin Zhushuang knew that Lin Weilan had already been able to play the song "Sacrifice to the Gods" at that time. If she chased after her, both she and Lin Weilan would suffer losses.
Over the years, she has also sent people to monitor Lin Weilan.
Lin Jiayan is missing, Lin Qingwen is unfilial, and the siblings Lin Wuyu and Lin Huaijin can't even practice the Heavenly Music Method... The worse Lin Weilan's life is, the happier Lin Zhushuang is.
Even if Lin Weilan passed her inner strength to Lin Qin, what would it matter? After all, she was still far behind Lin Shiyuan!
"Let's go first." Lin Zhushuang sneered, "This is an unlucky place, don't take away your good luck, Shiyuan."
Lin Shiyuan didn't say a word from beginning to end. After burning incense, she left with Lin Zhushuang.
Before leaving, she looked at Ye Wanlan with a serious look, and her vigilance towards Ye Wanlan increased even more.
Being patient for a while won't bring peace, but those who can be patient are definitely not ordinary people.
If someone from the Lin family violates the rules today, then Lin Zhushuang will have an excuse to destroy the branch family, and he will not be punished after returning.
Unfortunately not.
Ye Wanlan's expression remained indifferent. She looked at Lin Shiyuan calmly, without any emotion.
"Cousin." Lin Qin suddenly called her and said solemnly, "If your last name is not Lin, the Lin family will be less vigilant against you, and this way you can avenge grandma."
The Lin family is unfathomable just by having Lin Shiyuan.
Lin Zhushuang's strength is even greater than Lin Weilan's.
Not to mention, the Yunjing Lin family has nearly 10,000 people, which is far beyond the ability of one person to resist.
Overnight, Lin Qin seemed to have grown up a lot.
After a pause, she continued, "The Lin family failed to snatch Du Youqin, but Lin Zhushuang and Lin Shiyuan are here. They must want to take me back to the Lin family. So, I will go to Yunjing first."
Let her go back to the Lin family first to pave the way for Ye Wanlan.
"I know." Ye Wanlan raised his hand and rubbed her head. "Cousin will not stop your decision. If you want to go to Yunjing, then go first. Just wait for me."
"Yeah." Lin Qin smiled, "When you come, cousin, maybe I will have become a core disciple, and Lin Shiyuan won't be able to touch me."
Ye Wanlan also smiled: "Yes."
The two sisters knelt down again and continued to keep vigil for Lin Weilan.
Ye Wanlan lowered his head.
Since waking up, she has been wondering about the origin of the "prophecy stone carving" that Lin Weilan mentioned.
Could it be related to the group of people from Nanling Sea?
But Lin Weilan was right, there was indeed no way to enter the Nanling Sea now.
The enemy is in the dark and everything is unknown.
Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
She needed more intelligence.
Ye Wanlan slowly closed her eyes. Since Lin Qin was going back to the Lin family early, she had to pave the way for Lin Qin.
"Alan, come and take your medicine." Su Yingxia came over with the medicine bowl, her brows suddenly furrowed, "Did anyone come here just now?"
"Yes." Ye Wanlan took the medicine and said casually, "Lin Zhushuang and Lin Shiyuan."
"What?!" Su Yingxia's expression changed drastically, "Blame me, I should have been there at that time."
What good could come from Lin Zhushuang coming at this time?
"Don't worry, Sister Yingxia, we are fine." Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, "If Lin Zhushuang hurts us without any reason, her position as the Supreme Elder will also be in jeopardy. She won't do that."
Su Yingxia nodded: "That's true, the Lin family's rules are very strict."
"What medicine do I need?" Ye Wanlan finished drinking the medicine, "Why hasn't he come back yet?"
Su Yingxia paused and sighed: "It's the Frost and Snow Condensing Spirit Flower."
Hearing this, Ye Wanlan's expression froze: "Is there such a medicinal herb in Shenzhou?"
"No more." Su Yingxia shook her head slightly. "Even the father and son who specialize in growing medicinal herbs can't grow them. Now, only the Global Center has them."
After the great battle of ten thousand armies, the soil of China also underwent subtle changes, and many rare medicinal herbs could no longer grow.
Only Ye Wanlan knew that the battle would be just as He Jia described, with fire falling from the sky.
These fires also changed the structure of the soil.
"With Xiaoyan's ability, he will definitely be able to successfully bring back the Frost and Snow Condensing Spirit Flower." Su Yingxia said, "Your body must be thoroughly adjusted."
Ye Wanlan was very meek: "Thank you, Sister Yingxia."
"After you finish this bowl of medicine, there is still one pill left." Su Yingxia was very relieved, "I will go make another pill, A Lan, you can eat something."
After saying that, she hurried away to get the herbs.
Ye Wanlan stood up, walked out of the mourning hall, and took a few breaths of fresh air.
"Thorn-"
A car suddenly stopped.
The car door opened, and it was Lin Zhushuang who had returned.
"I will take Lin Qin back, and you--" Lin Zhushuang got out of the car and looked down at Ye Wanlan, "Either change your surname or die, choose one."
Good morning~~
