Chapter 20 Clan Comparison Begins
Chapter 20: The Clan Competition Begins
When the morning light broke through the constraints of the clouds and projected onto this land, the Lin family also made a noise in an instant, and a lively atmosphere enveloped the manor.
When Lin Xiao brought Lin Dong and Qingtan to the Trial Competition Hall, the place was already quite boiling. At first glance, there were quite a lot of people.
Although the Lin family is not a top-level force in Qingyang Town, it has some weight, so many distinguished guests come to observe this tribe competition. First, they are to have a relationship, and second, they can take the opportunity to see the abilities of the younger generation of the Lin family. After all, for such a family, excellent fresh blood is extremely important.
If these younger generations are mediocre people, then this family will be defeated sooner or later.
Although it was not the first time that he had seen such a scene, Lin Dong was still nervous. After all, this time, he was going to show up.
Lin Xiao patted Lin Dong's shoulder and signaled that he didn't have to be nervous, and then led the two straight to the VIP seat in the Trial Hall.
At this moment, there were already many people sitting in the VIP seat in the Trial Hall, constantly laughing and talking to each other.
In the middle of the VIP seat, a slightly thin middle-aged man was smiling and chatting with several guests around him who seemed to have some status in Qingyang Town. While he was talking and laughing, his eyes suddenly caught a glimpse of Lin Xiao and the others. He was stunned and then frowned without a trace.
In previous years, Lin Xiao would not appear in attendance at all. Sometimes he attended, and he was standing in an inconspicuous corner. This time, he was like this, going straight to the VIP seat, which was the first time in these years.
On the left side of the thin middle-aged man, there were two young men standing, including Lin Hong and Lin Shan, who had a gap with Lin Dong. Judging from this, the former should be their father, the guy with a very bad relationship with Lin Xiao, Lin Mang.
Lin Xiao seemed to have never heard of Lin Mang's gaze, and his pace continued. However, just as he was about to walk past him, the former suddenly smiled, holding the teacup in his hand, and said casually: "Third brother, why are you willing to leave your place this time?"
Lin Xiao paused, glanced at the second brother who had a very bad relationship since childhood, and a smile appeared on his face, saying, "Is there any problem?"
Seeing the smile on Lin Xiao’s face, Lin Mang was stunned. The smile was no longer the decadent as before. This discovery made him feel a little uncomfortable. He said lightly: "No problem, but today is a big event for my Lin family. Since you are out, I hope you don’t lose the Lin family members."
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, but ignored the slight mockery in Lin Mang's words. He just passed by him and sat down in the seat not far away.
"snort."
Lin Xiao's actions made Lin Mang look a little ugly, and he snorted coldly.
"Haha, Brother Lin Mang, is this Lin Xiao, who was known as the most likely opportunity to enter the Yuandan realm in the Lin family back then?" A man next to him asked with a smile.
"It's just a rumor, how can you take it seriously?" Lin Mang said with a faint smile.
"Haha, too, Brother Lin Mang is now the person who has the most chance to enter the Yuandan realm in the Lin family. It seems that if you have the chance in the future, you have to cooperate more." The man smiled, and there was a bit of welcome in his words. Lin Mang successfully entered the Tianyuan realm two years ago and became the third Tianyuan master in the Lin family. In the past two years, he has been valued and has been in charge of the financial power of the Lin family. Compared with him, Lin Xiao, who has been decadent for many years, has been somewhat forgotten.
Although I knew it was a welcome speech, Lin Mang, who heard it, couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Dad, don't worry, when Lin Dong loses miserably, his face will not look good." Behind Lin Mang, Lin Hong seemed to know that Lin Mang was unhappy and chuckled.
"kindness."
Upon hearing this, Lin Mang smiled again and nodded slowly.
"That guy is so annoying."
Qingtan sat down with Lin Xiao and muttered dissatisfiedly that she also saw Lin Mang's previous difficulties.
"Just gaining power for a while."
Lin Xiao shook his head indifferently. As soon as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly looked towards the direction of the gate. There were a large group of people rushing in. At the top of the crowd, there was an old man with white hair. The old man was wearing a brocade shirt, giving people a very tough feeling. As his eyes swept, he felt a little majestic.
And this person is the current head of the Lin family, Lin Xiao's father, Lin Dong's grandfather, and Lin Zhentian.
Behind Lin Zhentian, there was a middle-aged man following closely. Beside him, Lin Xia, in strong clothes, also stood pretty and slim figure, which attracted many young eyes.
As soon as Lin Zhentian appeared, the trial hall was in full swing. Everyone stood up quickly. The former was in Qingyang Town and was also considered the number one figure. When he came here alone and appeared in the Lin family, he talked about his methods and abilities. Many people admired it.
Lin Zhentian greeted the VIPs with a smile, and then stopped in the center of the seat. When his steps stopped, his eyes happened to see Lin Xiao standing up not far away. He was stunned at the moment, and then walked over quickly.
"Father."
Looking at Lin Zhentian walking towards him, Lin Xiao couldn't help but clench his fists in his sleeves, stood up, and said respectfully.
"Are you willing to come to see me?"
Looking at Lin Xiao in front of him, Lin Zhentian's eyes were also a little complicated, and he finally said lightly.
Back then, Lin Xiao was his son who had devoted the most effort. Although his later defeat disappointed him, what disappointed him the most was Lin Xiao's decadence.
The old man is also stubborn. After Lin Xiao was depressed, he was disheartened and no matter how long he missed him, he never took the initiative to meet him.
"Father, I'm sorry." Lin Xiao whispered. He knew how disappointed Lin Zhentian had been after years of decadence.
"grandfather……"
On the side, Lin Dong and Qingtan also shouted.
"Hehe, it's Dong'er and Qingtan, they have grown a lot taller..." Hearing the screams of the two, a smile appeared on Lin Zhentian's face. He touched their heads, and he was quite cihe.
"Just come out. You didn't wait until I entered the coffin." Lin Zhentian's eyes turned to Lin Xiao again and said. When he spoke, Lin Dong felt the old man's palm tremble. It seemed that his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
"Haha, Father, it's good that the third brother can come out, so there are no need to talk about it. There are still many customers today." The middle-aged man who had been following Lin Zhentian also smiled.
Lin Zhentian sighed, looked at Lin Xiao again, and then turned around and returned to his seat.
"Brother." Lin Xiao looked at the middle-aged man gratefully and said.
The middle-aged man nodded with a smile, then patted Lin Dong on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Dong'er, this time, don't lose your father's face."
"Yeah, uncle."
Lin Dong nodded. This person was his uncle, named Lincoln, and he was also Lin Xia's father.
Thinking of Lin Xia, Lin Dong's eyes turned, and then he saw the girl behind the middle-aged man, waving his little fist at him and signaling him to cheer him on.
After chatting with Lin Xiao for a while, Lincoln took Lin Xia back to his seat, and with everyone taking the seat, the trial hall gradually became quiet.
One by one, he looked at Lin Zhentian in the first position.
The Lin family comparison officially begins!
