Family Cultivation: Many Children, Many Blessings

Chapter 38 Win over
Not long after the ancestor Lin Xianchu passed away, the former clan leader Lin Daoheng also passed away suddenly.

The successive bad news made the Lin family, who had just eliminated their old enemy, completely unhappy. It seemed as if a dark cloud was covering their heads.

Not long after the two foundation-building cultivators in the family were established, the Lin family returned to having only one foundation-building cultivator.

Fortunately, there is now a talented talisman master of the first rank, Lin Changyue, in the clan, who may be able to be promoted to a second rank talisman master in a few years; there is also a puppeteer son-in-law, Chen Ping, who has a puppet comparable to a second-rank mid-grade puppet.

With these two people around, the Lin family has a promising future and will definitely become stronger.

In addition, the specific results of the war between the Lin and Zhou clans gradually spread in the surrounding immortal cultivation circles. The Lin family not only destroyed the Zhou family, but also, under the strong intimidation of the Liu family, bit off a large piece of meat. This made the Lin family more famous.

……

Lin family land, Houfeng.

After taking care of the ancestor's funeral, Lin Changgeng, Lin Changyue and several elders of the clan personally came to Chen Ping's residence in a very grand manner.

Lin Changxuan was also traveling with them.

Many people in the clan knew that Chen Ping liked Lin Changxuan, the most beautiful woman in the Lin family.

However, although Chen Ping had good spiritual roots and was a first-level mid-grade puppeteer, Lin Changxuan was also a first-level mid-grade talisman master, and his cultivation was even higher than Chen Ping's.

Most of the tribesmen still felt that Chen Ping was "not worthy" of Lin Changxuan.

of course.

Fortunately, no one in the Lin family had ever done anything to break up a couple in the past. No one had ever mocked Chen Ping for being a 'toad wanting to eat swan flesh' or anything like that. Even when Chen Ping was pursuing Lin Changxuan, although Lin Changxuan rejected him, she never said anything bad to him.

The situation is naturally very different now.

When Chen Ping, who has a mysterious origin and possesses a second-level puppet, is put together with Lin Changxuan, no one will say that Chen Ping is not worthy.

Moreover, although Chen Ping is a son-in-law, in a family of immortal cultivation, it is different from that of ordinary people. Even a son-in-law can take wives and concubines without any restrictions.

As long as he marries a woman from the Lin family, it will be fine as long as his offspring are guaranteed to have half Lin family blood.

After all, the Lin family's purpose in bringing these "immortal seedlings" to the Lin family is to expand their family and increase the number of cultivators in the family.

Many sons-in-law like Chen Ping may not be able to truly consider themselves members of the Lin family after marrying into the Lin family, and may always feel alienated.

But as for their children, they will be raised collectively by the family since childhood, and they will all be given the surname Lin when they are born.

Therefore, the children born by the Lin family's son-in-law are no different from the Lin family's own children.

They are all orthodox members of the Lin family!

"Chen Ping."

"Master Chen Puppet."

Everyone greeted each other politely.

"I've met you all."

Chen Ping also returned the greetings one by one.

However, his eyes and most of his attention were obviously on Lin Changxuan, and the admiration in his eyes was barely concealed.

Some high-ranking members of the Lin family watched this scene with smiles on their faces, believing that if Lin Changxuan and Chen Ping could become Taoist partners, it would be very helpful in retaining Chen Ping and completely binding him to the Lin family; some people were secretly worried in their hearts. They didn't object to Chen Ping liking Lin Changxuan, but what if Lin Changxuan didn't like Chen Ping?
"Chen Ping, you've been in our Lin family for almost ten years, right?"

The current clan leader, Lin Daoyuan, opened the conversation and said, "For so many years, our Lin family has not had the foresight to recognize a talent. We didn't realize that Chen Ping has such a high talent for puppetry and is already a top-grade puppeteer. It's our fault."

cough cough...

Chen Ping, who was admiring the beauty, felt a little embarrassed.

He was quite thick-skinned when it came to pursuing women, but he wasn't used to being flattered.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed quietly in the Lin family for so many years without showing off at all.

Over the years, it was obvious that he was the one who kept his secrets to himself and refused to reveal them to the Lin family. Now the Lin family is turning around and saying that it was their own fault for not having the foresight to recognize talent.

"In this war between the two clans, Chen Ping, you played a crucial role. If you hadn't stood up at the most critical juncture, the Lin family's current situation would be unimaginable. On behalf of the entire Lin family, I express my sincere gratitude to you, Chen Ping."

Although Lin Daoyuan had just taken over the position of clan leader, he had been managing the General Affairs Hall for many years and was very experienced in dealing with people and had a set of words. After saying this, he took out a storage ring and a list.

The list listed the many rewards the Lin family gave to Chen Ping, as well as Chen Ping's future treatment.

Including but not limited to the cave, monthly offerings, cultivation resources, etc.
Chen Ping felt even more embarrassed now.

He did make great contributions in this war between the two clans, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he saved the Lin family.

But in fact, he did not take action immediately.

When the three foundation-building cultivators of the Liu family appeared, the first thought that came to his mind was to find an opportunity to escape quickly.

He first fled back to the Lin family's territory, and then fled far away with his wives, concubines and children.

The Liu family has three people who are in the foundation-building stage, and one great cultivator in the late foundation-building stage. No matter how powerful Uncle Li is, if he is given a first-grade top-quality puppet, the combat power he can exert is comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of the foundation-building stage, which is already the limit. It is impossible for him to compete with a cultivator in the late foundation-building stage.

So at the most dangerous moment, Chen Ping did not think about sharing the hardship with the Lin family, but only thought about protecting his wife and daughter.

It was not until the foundation-building cultivators from the Xuanbing Palace appeared and delayed the Liu family's late foundation-building stage that Chen Ping saw hope and decided to reveal his trump card and save the Lin family.

"Chen Ping, please accept it. These rewards are not enough to reflect your great contribution this time. If you have any other needs, please feel free to ask. As long as the Lin family can meet them, we will definitely not hesitate."

Lin Daoyuan was very sincere this time and spoke from his heart.

"No, no, clan leader, these rewards are already very generous. And many of them are materials needed to refine puppets. What I want most right now is in this storage ring."

Chen Ping smiled happily.

I felt quite emotional.

The Lin family was really considerate. Not only was the reward they gave him very generous, but it was also thoughtful and touched his heart.

It seems that rejecting the invitation from Xuanbing Palace and staying in the Lin family is a good choice.

However, something happened afterwards that made him even happier.

When the top leaders of the Lin family were preparing to leave, Fairy Changxuan, whom he admired very much, suddenly spoke up and asked the others to go first, as she had something to say to Chen Ping alone.

So everyone left first, leaving Lin Changxuan and Chen Ping behind.

……

About one stick of incense later.

Only after Chen Ping saw him off with a smile on his face did Lin Changxuan leave on his flying magic weapon.

However, on the way back to the cave, Lin Changxuan was stopped by Lin Changyue halfway through his flight.

"Brother Changyue, is there anything wrong?" Lin Changxuan asked in surprise.

Lin Changyue looked carefully at Lin Changxuan's expression and found that there was no heavy or depressed emotion on her face or in her eyes. It was no different from usual.

I felt a little more at ease.

But after thinking about it, Lin Changyue said, "Nothing else. I just want to tell you that although the ancestor is gone, Chang Geng and I are here to protect the Lin family. There is no need for you to sacrifice your own happiness. So, Chang Xuan, you don't have to do things you don't like or even hate."

Lin Changxuan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then he smiled happily, blinking his big eyes and asked, "Brother Changyue, Chen Ping is actually quite good. He should... not be that annoying, right?"

Lin Changyue also smiled and said, "Okay, okay, it seems I've been a villain in vain."

Before the war between the two tribes began, Lin Changyue also discovered that Lin Changxuan and Chen Ping seemed to have some connections, and he even teased them.

At that time, Lin Changxuan did not show her love for Chen Ping, and said that she had no plans to find a Taoist partner for the time being.

So he was a little worried, afraid that Lin Changxuan would rather sacrifice himself for the family.

Now it seems that he was worrying too much.

Lin Changxuan seems to have some good feelings towards Chen Ping.

"But, Brother Changyue..." Lin Changxuan's eyes flickered with emotion, and he said seriously, "Thank you."
