After the spiritual energy was restored: Goddess girlfriends came knocking.

Lin Lan sat upright in the main seat, as firm as a mountain.

He was dressed in a black and gold immortal robe today, and his expression was majestic.

Ji Muwan sat down beside him.

Lin Yuan and Lin Che stood on either side, one on the left and one on the right.

Lin Yuan was fifteen years old. He was tall and straight with a cold and stern face. He stood there like a sword that had not yet been drawn.

Lin Che was ten years old, his eyes darting around. If the occasion hadn't been so serious, he would have already come over to tease his younger brother.

At this moment, the congratulatory gifts piled up like mountains on both sides of the square.

Elixir, celestial crystal, cultivation techniques, magical artifacts—everything imaginable is available.

Halfway through the banquet, dawn broke on the horizon.

First came a clear and melodious phoenix cry from beyond the heavens.

Immediately afterwards, three streaks of light pierced through the clouds and landed above the plaza.

Two vermilion birds, their bodies entirely crimson, and a phoenix engulfed in golden divine fire.

The two Vermilion Birds are at the True Immortal level, and the Phoenix is ​​at the Mysterious Immortal level.

Behind them, a phoenix carriage was being pulled.

The phoenix carriage was crafted from 100,000-year-old paulownia wood and reinforced with Nine Heavens Mystic Gold. Its entire body shimmered with a pale golden immortal light, and its body was covered with densely packed protective immortal arrays.

A 100,000-year-old paulownia tree.

Nine Heavens Mysterious Gold.

Use these two items to make a cart, and then have the True Immortal Vermilion Bird and the Mysterious Immortal Phoenix pull the cart.

The entire room fell silent for a moment.

Immediately afterwards, gasps of shock rose and fell.

"A phoenix pulling a carriage... The Ji family's gesture is far too extravagant."

"This is a phoenix of the Xuanxian level. If it were outside, it would be considered a demon ancestor."

"The Ji family is declaring the status of this grandson."

Lin Chu looked up at the phoenix carriage, her eyes wide with amazement.

Was it a gift from my maternal grandfather?

His maternal grandfather, whom he had never met, was Ji Hongxuan, the current head of the Tianxu Ji family, and a peak Immortal King.

He gave such a generous gift on our first meeting.

A maternal grandfather at the peak of the Immortal King realm, a paternal grandfather at the peak of the Immortal King realm, a father at the peak of the Immortal Lord realm, and a mother at the Immortal Lord realm.

Lin Chu felt that her family background could no longer be described as "good".

The people from the Ji family parked their phoenix carriage in the center of the square and bowed to the head of the household.

"By order of the head of the family, I am here to present a congratulatory gift to the young master."

The sound was clear and resonant, carrying throughout the entire square.

Lin Lan nodded slightly.

Ji Muwan looked down at Lin Chu in her arms and gently squeezed his little hand: "Little Chu'er, this is from your grandfather."

Lin Chu blinked.

He wanted to say something, but all that came out of his mouth was a string of baby babbling sounds.

Forget it, I'll just keep pretending.

The banquet was lively for most of the day, with guests coming forward one after another to offer toasts and say a string of auspicious words.

Lin Chu got sleepy while listening and fell asleep in her mother's arms.

When he woke up again, he was back in his palace.

After the full moon celebration, life returned to normal.

Every day, he either sleeps or is carried around by Lin Che.

Yes, Lin Che hugged her.

This ten-year-old boy, I don't know where he gets so much energy.

His greatest pleasure each day was secretly lifting Lin Chu out of bed.

I want to take him out to see the world.

"Little Chu, your second brother will take you to see Tianlan City!"

"Xiao Chu, you've never seen a crane before, have you? We keep a flock of them on the hill behind our house!"

"Little Chu, let me tell you, there's a spirit fruit shop in the east of the city, and their fruits are delicious!"

Lin Chu wanted to refuse, but the struggle of an infant was obviously meaningless.

As a result, every time he carried Lin Chu and rushed out, he could only run three steps.

Because the next second, a hand will reach out from behind and precisely grab his ear.

"Lin! Che!"

A gentle voice, tinged with murderous intent, rang out.

"Where do you plan to take your little brother this time?"

Lin Che froze, then slowly turned his head.

A gentle and graceful woman stood behind him.

Ji Qing.

The biological mother of Lin Yuan and Lin Che.

"mother……"

"I... I just took my younger brother out to get some sun."

"Sunbathing?" Ji Qing sneered. "You said the same thing yesterday, but then you carried Xiao Chu to the training ground."

"That was an accident!"

"An accident? I think you're just asking for trouble."

Ji Qing grabbed Lin Che and slapped him on the buttocks several times.

Pop, pop, pop.

Lin Chu was gently taken by another maid and lay in her swaddling clothes, watching her second brother being chased all over the yard by their mother.

"Brother! Help! Mother's going to beat me to death!"

"Big brother! Help me!"

"Xiao Chu! Second Brother will come back!"

Lin Chu blinked.

"This second brother..."

"He's a real character."

However, Lin Chu could tell that Ji Qing treated him very well.

It's not the kind of good that's faked.

It comes from the bottom of my heart.

One night, Lin Chu woke up and saw Ji Qing sitting by the bed.

She thought Lin Chu was asleep and was tucking him in.

The movements were very light and gentle.

He muttered to himself, "Little Chu'er, don't be like your second brother, who's been naughty since he was little."

"Be safe and sound, do you hear me?"

Lin Chu felt a warmth in her heart.

Ji Qing's feelings for him were almost the same as those for Ji Muwan.

Lin Yuan, on the other hand, was a completely different person.

After finishing his clan affairs each day, the first thing he does is come to see Lin Chu.

He wasn't good with words, so he would usually just pull up a chair and sit quietly next to the rocking crib, watching his younger brother.

Sometimes, he would watch Lin Chu while she was asleep.

Occasionally, he would reach out and gently touch Lin Chu's face, then reveal a very faint smile.

He said nothing, sat for a while, and then got up and left.

"This guy..."

"It's not as bad as the rumors outside make it out to be."

Ji Muwan's doting affection for Lin Chu goes without saying.

From the day Lin Chu was born, she began to personally craft protective talismans for him.

The medicines used to nourish and warm the spiritual meridians are never interrupted.

Those rare and precious herbs that would be fought over outside, in her hands, all became food for her son.

She wished she could hold Lin Chu every day and never let go.

Lin Chu often fell asleep in Ji Muwan's arms, listening to her humming an unknown fairy melody.

That voice reassured him even more than the voice of the Great Dao.

……

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Although Lin Chu is still very young, she speaks much more fluently.

His innate Dao foundation was also discovered when an elder of the clan held him.

"Innate Dao Foundation?" The elder's hand trembled, and he almost dropped Lin Chu.

The news spread, and the clan was overjoyed.

Innate Dao Foundation is a rare talent, even in the Spirit Realm.

The last time this physique appeared in the clan was many tens of thousands of years ago.

The elders looked at Lin Chu with even more eagerness.

As Lin Chu remained conscious for longer periods, he observed more and more information.

He gradually realized that his family was by no means a kind family.

What surprised Lin Chu even more was that this family's true background was that they started out as assassins.

Even today, as long as the price is high enough, some members of the clan are still willing to return to their old ways and take on a job.

The Lin family of Taixu earned their reputation largely through bloodshed.

Therefore, when those vassal forces mentioned the Lin family, they felt more awe than affection.

Yet this "villainous" family is incredibly warm-hearted towards its own people.

Especially for him.

Lin Chuneng could clearly feel that everyone in the clan looked at him with undisguised affection and expectation.

That kind of heat was something Lin Chu had experienced in her previous life at the Jiang family, but it was nowhere near as intense as it was now.

The eldest brother, Lin Yuan, may seem cold and aloof, but he is actually more meticulous than anyone else.

The second brother, Lin Che, is flamboyant and passionate, and extremely protective of his own.

The mother, Ji Muwan, was gentle as water, yet possessed extraordinary cunning.

In the past six months, Lin Chu has witnessed more than once how those powerful figures who were arrogant in front of outsiders were extremely respectful in front of Ji Muwan.

My father was as silent as a mountain, supporting everything.

Lin Chu lay in Ji Muwan's arms, watching the celestial light flowing outside the palace and listening to Lin Che's screams as Ji Qing chased and beat him in the distance.

This life seems pretty good too.
