Eternal Beast Taming Family

"Lord City Lord, why get so angry? Our family is small, and we never wanted our child to be so far from home. Thousand Spirits Academy does sound prestigious."

But now, with the two dynasties in constant turmoil, even noble kings are frequently losing their lives. How can we feel at ease sending him to the Thousand Spirits Academy?

Zhu Fengtian poured out all his inner turmoil and suffering.

The city lord of Timber City finally understood, but he still tried to persuade him.

"Your concerns are not without merit, but have you considered the child's feelings? Being specially admitted to Qianling Academy in advance is enough to show how outstanding the child's talent is."

Most graduates of Qianling Academy are able to become generals or prime ministers, or city lords. Even those with less talent are renowned scholars or business tycoons.

The child clearly had such an opportunity, yet you forced him to give it up and stay in our Timber City. At most, he could only cultivate to the Domain Rank.

If he were there, given his current situation, he would be at least at the Transcendent Rank, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to even become a king.

That's not just a simple difference in strength; it also signifies a pivotal position within the dynasty and a longer lifespan.

Furthermore, it's not impossible for them to be rewarded with Origin Artifacts by the imperial court, thus becoming a high-ranking family capable of passing down their legacy.

Hearing the city lord's words, Zhu Fengtian's expression became conflicted. On one hand, he was considering the child's safety, and on the other hand, the child's higher cultivation level and the family's opportunity to become a family of source beasts.

This really put him in a difficult position.

The city lord of Timber City paused for a moment before continuing.

"Before you agree, hasn't the child already made their decision? Rather than letting the child leave with some kind of guilt, why not be their strong support? This is the core spirit that a family should have."

Zhu Fengtian sighed, "The child has grown up and has his own ideas. I won't stop him anymore; let him do as he pleases."

"Sir... thank you." Zhu Yingchen's expression was somewhat complicated.

The city lord of Timber City clapped his hands. "That's right! Children and grandchildren have their own freedom and their own blessings. Sometimes you have to loosen your grip."

Furthermore, Zhu Yingchen is the first student from our Timber Industry City to be able to attend Qianling Academy. He represents the face of our Timber Industry City.

Ten thousand spirit stones will be allocated annually from the city's public funds to support Zhu Yingchen's studies, and this policy will continue as a new one.

"We must ensure that no talented student should have their path to education cut off by financial constraints."

Only after ensuring that Zhu Yingchen would continue his studies at Qianling Academy did the city lord of Muye City leave the Zhu family with a few subordinates, completely satisfied.

After seeing the city lord and his entourage off, Zhu Fengtian looked at Zhu Yingchen, who was standing by the door, and spoke softly.

"Let's cancel that loan. It's not like our family can't afford to send you to school. We've had enough money over the years."

Zhu Yingchen shook his head and carefully explained the specific rules of the loan to his grandfather. Finally, fearing that his grandfather would not believe him, he took him to the Dream Realm Loan Place to personally inquire with the staff.

……

After finishing his work for the day, Lin Zixu returned to his residence in Wandao City.

In Wandao City, where land is incredibly valuable and money can't always buy a place, Lin Zixu's mansion occupies a full ten acres, making it a truly luxurious residence.

Moreover, this is only one of his properties. He also has larger residences in the two imperial capitals of Tianyun and Fansheng, but he rarely visits those two places.

They only hired some housekeepers and servants to do the cleaning.

Lin Zixu usually serves as the dean of the Chu family's main beast academy. In times of crisis, he will also go to the two imperial cities to serve as an advisor.

For example, he participated as an advisor in the recent war between the Fansheng Dynasty and the Qinglan Dynasty, and he has only recently returned to Wandao Mountain.

Although his current realm is only "Upper Domain Rank", which is not among the top ranks in the two dynasties, his status is no less than that of those at the Derivation Rank or even the King Rank.

Because of his important position in the Chu family, the newly incorporated royal family members also had to give him a lot of face.

He had barely sat down inside when the butler came up to report:

"Dean, there is a man outside who claims to be your father who has come to pay his respects."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zixu paused slightly in mid-air, holding his teacup. His father, Lin Yue, was staying peacefully in Muyang City, so why had he suddenly come to Wandao City?

The entry permit for Wandao City is not easy to obtain now. Even though Lin Yue was once the captain of the Chu family's guard team, it is probably not easy for him to get it now. Could it be that he is using his own name?

"How many people came?"

"Four people: a man who claims to be your father, a woman who acts intimately with him, and two younger people, a man and a woman."

"Go and invite them in; just put them in the main hall."

The butler acknowledged the order and left the study to go outside the mansion to fetch the family.

At this moment, outside the Lin residence, Lin Yue and his entourage were waiting at the gate. Perhaps because they had been waiting for a long time, the younger woman showed obvious impatience.

"Father, didn't you say we came to find our eldest brother? Why do they act like they don't recognize us when we get here?"

Compared to more than two hundred years ago, Lin Yue now has less of the resolute look he had back then, and more of a gentler one. His temples are slightly gray, and he looks like a content and happy old man.

Lin Yue replied with a smile, "Your brother is in a high position and very busy. We didn't tell him we were coming, so it's normal that the steward here didn't recognize him at first."

Lin Muyue, Lin Yue's daughter with her current husband, glanced at the entrance of the Lin residence a few more times, her tone seemingly filled with disappointment.

"Isn't it said that my elder brother holds a high position? How come his mansion doesn't even look as big as our residence in Muyang City?"

The delicate woman beside Lin Yue quickly pulled her daughter back and said softly:

"Perhaps it's because your brother prefers a low-key lifestyle and doesn't like luxurious things, which is why this mansion is a bit small."

The butler, who had just reached the gate, frowned upon hearing the news. This mansion was small; did he not consider what kind of place this was? The center of two dynasties, the only city in Wandao City, and the closest place to the Chu family.

Those who usually visit this mansion are all prominent families of high rank. Even those families that control several cities wouldn't dare to speak like this in front of the Lin family.

The butler was momentarily speechless with anger, but remembering that the people outside might be the dean's relatives, he forced a smile and stepped out from behind the door.

"Please come in, gentlemen. My master invites you to meet him in the main hall."
