Chapter 312 A Tiger Lord Has No Dog Grandchildren

White Cliff, the Realm of Immortals.

The current sect leader of the Myriad Swords Divine Sect, and one of the top sword cultivators in the Origin Spirit Realm.

But at this moment, his face was so dark it looked like it could drip water.

Especially when he saw Jian Li huddled behind Lin Chu, her hands tightly gripping his arm.

"Aren't you coming over here!"

"What kind of behavior is this!"

Lin Chu's eyelids twitched.

This oppressive aura was on par with that of his grandfather and maternal grandfather.

Instead of letting go, Jian Li hugged Lin Chu's arm even tighter.

She peeked half her face out from behind Lin Chu and muttered something softly.

"I don't……"

Bai Qingya was so angry that his beard stood on end.

This girl.

Back then, I wanted to take her as my last disciple.

No matter how much I pleaded, even after I'd worn my lips out, it still didn't work.

Now he's run off to the Spirit Realm of the Great Void, eagerly following behind others and calling them "Master," just like a little cabbage that's been taken advantage of and is now turning away.

Lin Chu coughed lightly, a smile spreading across his face.

"senior."

"How about... we go downstairs to talk?"

This person is on the same level as my grandfather.

When it's time to back down, Lin Chu never hesitates.

Moreover, to be honest, it was indeed their own Jian Li who ran away first, and when the sect leader came to demand her back, they were already in the wrong.

"snort."

Bai Qingya glanced at Lin Chu from head to toe, about to speak.

Just then, Lin Zhentian's hearty laughter came from below.

"Old Bai!"

"You're so old, why are you still arguing with the younger generation!"

"What kind of reputation will it have if word gets out that the head of a sect is blocking a junior's imperial carriage!"

Lin Zhentian was full of energy, and his laughter echoed far and wide.

Bai Qingya's eye twitched again.

That old man.

While seemingly trying to smooth things over, every word she uttered was actually stabbing him in the heart.

What does it mean to block a junior's imperial carriage?

Am I stuck in traffic?

I'm here to demand an explanation!

He snorted heavily through his nostrils and glanced at Jian Li again.

It transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the depths of the clan's territory.

Lin Chu turned around and saw Jian Li sticking out her tongue, showing no fear whatsoever.

He raised his hand and gently flicked her forehead.

"You."

"Don't hug me like that in front of strangers next time."

Jian Li pouted.

"He's going to arrest me, that's why I'm scared..."

Are you afraid of him?

"I'm scared."

Lin Chu was too lazy to expose her.

Judging from the expression on that girl's face just now, it had absolutely nothing to do with the word "fear".

The phoenix carriage slowly descended.

Inside the clan's territory, Lin Zhentian stood in the hall, smiling and with his hands behind his back.

Bai Qingya stood to the side, hands behind his back, his face still bearing that same annoyed expression.

Ignoring their auras, just looking at that old face, Lin Chu felt that her grandfather was just a neighbor who had come out to watch the commotion.

He led the women into the hall and bowed to the two elders.

"grandfather."

He then clasped his hands in a fist salute towards Bai Qingya.

"senior."

When only her family is around, Lin Chu can be more relaxed, but when outsiders are present, she never neglects the proper etiquette.

Jian Li followed in and gave Lin Zhentian a sweet smile.

"Grandpa Lin!"

Lin Zhentian's eyes lit up, and he almost grinned from ear to ear.

"Why!"

That resounding "Yes!" was full of energy.

Bai Qingya's face darkened even more.

They've even started calling him "Grandpa"?

"Grandpa Lin, I brought you some Cloud Peak Tea from Tianxu City on my trip!"

Jian Li jogged over, rummaged through her storage bag, pulled out an exquisite jade box, and stuffed it into Lin Zhentian's hand.

Lin Zhentian's smile widened even further.

"Alright, alright, Li-ya, you're so thoughtful."

After saying that, he glanced at Bai Qingya out of the corner of his eye.

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

did you see it?

Bai Qingya almost blew his beard off.

"Sect Master, yours is ready too."

Jian Li chuckled, then took out another jade box and handed it over with both hands.

Bai Qingya initially wanted to refuse, but seeing the little girl's ingratiating expression, he couldn't resist in the end.

"snort."

"At least you still have some conscience."

He turned his face away, but his hand had already naturally put the jade box away.

This girl.

There is really nothing to do with her.

His old eyes darted between Jian Li and Lin Chu, his brows furrowing more and more tightly.

No matter how I think about it, I can't figure it out. This girl has always been aloof and cold within the sect. Only I and the madam have had more contact with her, so I know that the girl's cold personality is just a disguise.

How come he's so close to this Lin family member?

How long has it been?

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Lin Zhentian turned around and sat down at the head of the table, formally introducing himself to Lin Chu.

"Chu'er, this is Bai Qingya, the sect master of the Ten Thousand Swords Divine Sect."

"Senior Bai."

Lin Chu stepped forward and bowed respectfully once again.

Bai Qingya's gaze lingered on Lin Chu for a few moments before he slowly nodded, a hint of emotion in his eyes.

"An eighteen-year-old Golden Immortal, yet his cultivation is so stable and his foundation so solid."

"The rumors circulating about you are probably an underestimation."

Lin Chu didn't act arrogantly and lowered her head slightly.

"It's all thanks to the careful cultivation of our elders."

Bai Qingya's expression softened somewhat.

Lin Zhentian spoke with a proud expression.

"Please sit down."

Everyone took their seats.

Lin Zhentian briefly explained the reopening of the Imperial Road.

The reactions from all sides have been roughly ascertained.

There are many who oppose it, but not a single one dares to stand up and challenge it.

Within the Taixu Spirit Realm, Ji Hongxuan and several allied forces, including the Lin family, were the first to express their stance.

What was most surprising was that the Taixu Dao Sect also took the initiative to express its agreement.

At this point, the wind direction was basically determined.

After all, the Imperial Road is in Lin Chu's hands.

disagree?

Sure.

Don't let your younger family members come.

Now it's not the Lin family begging them, it's them begging the Lin family.

Lin Chu nodded after listening.

"In that case, the sooner the better."

"I had thought before that we could designate a separate area in Tianlan City."

"I have set up a sturdy teleportation array as the only passage into and out of the Imperial Road."

"We usually have someone stationed there, and people are allowed to pass only upon presentation of a token."

"At the same time, a number of markets, auction houses, and trading offices will be built around the teleportation array."

"Cultivators returning from the Imperial Road can sell off anything they don't need on the spot, so they don't have to crowd under the trees on the first level of the Imperial Road."

"We just need to set up the platform, and the rest will be taken care of."

Lin Zhentian became more and more satisfied as he listened.

After Lin Chu finished speaking, he clapped his hands and laughed.

"good!"

"Excellent! My Chu'er is not only exceptionally talented, but also incredibly intelligent."

As he spoke, he gave Bai Qingya a thumbs-up and added:

"A tiger has no dog grandson."

Bai Qingya remained silent.

This is praising your grandson, why are you praising yourself too?

This time, however, he didn't blow his beard or glare.

Instead, he gave Lin Chu a deep look.

To be fair...
