After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at Lin Yi in surprise again, and then asked, "Are you here to find someone?"

Lin Yi nodded: "Yes, I came to find the eldest prince of your mansion." ”

"Oh?" the old man's eyes instantly revealed a gleam, and he asked, "You were brought here directly by the guards outside the palace?"

"Yes. Lin Yi nodded.

"To be directly led here by the guards outside the house, it seems that the eldest prince has explained in advance. That's right. I can't call him the eldest prince now, I should call him the head of the house. The old man's face showed a bit of inexplicability.

"Family Master?" Lin Yi was a little stunned.

"That's right, I just heard from the people in the mansion that from today on, the eldest prince will be the new head of the Lin family in my inner city. The old man said with a smile.

"That'...... What about the previous head of the family?" Lin Yi then asked.

"The former head of the family?" The inexplicable meaning on the old man's face was even worse: "The former head of the family naturally wants to abdicate, and then take care of himself in the mansion." ”

Hearing the old man's words, Lin Yi was naturally extremely surprised.

Although he had long known that the Lin family in the inner city would be taken over by his father Lin Langtian sooner or later, Lin Yi really didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

After all, some time ago, his father Lin Langtian was still fighting with Lin Qingtian for the position of the heir to the head of the family, but he didn't expect that today, his father would start to take over the Lin family.

"Master ......" Lin Yigang wanted to speak, but immediately stopped his mouth, he glanced at the old man, and then said: "Also, I think that Lin seniors once led troops to protect the entire Southern Chu secular world when they were young, and later worked all their lives for the entire Lin family in the inner city, it can be said that I don't know how much I have eaten, how much I have cried, how tired, and now I am old." It's time to retire and enjoy the blessings. It can also make some of the juniors in the Lin Mansion do their filial piety. Speaking of this, Lin Yi's face involuntarily showed a look of respect.

This is really Lin Yi's true words.

In Lin Yi's heart, Lin Batian's figure has always been great, that old man once supported the entire inner city Lin family, and also guarded the entire secular world of the Southern Chu Empire, otherwise, how could he get the title of Zhenguo Duke of the Southern Chu Empire given to Lin Batian by the royal Chu family in the world.

What moved Lin Yi even more was that after his father was captured by the people of the Qinglian Holy Land, the old man did not hesitate to break with the Lin family in Licheng and snatched his father back from the Qinglian Holy Land.

The word father's love has been perfectly interpreted by Lin Batian.

Although Lin Yi had never seen Lin Batian himself, for this old man who was very famous in the secular world of the Southern Chu Empire and in the world of cultivating immortals, Lin Yi only had respect in his heart.

Because that old man is still his grandfather, the grandfather he recognizes from the heart. Even now he doesn't recognize the old man.

At this moment, when the old man heard Lin Yi's words, he took the thick respectful look on Lin Yi's face into his eyes, and his eyes suddenly showed a little different color.

He glanced at Lin Yi deeply and said, "You really think so?"

When Lin Yi heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes and said, "Naturally, it's true, I'm not from this Lin Mansion, and I'm just saying some personal opinions from the perspective of a bystander, do I still need to tell you some lies?"

After hearing this, the old man carefully looked Lin Yi up and down again, and there began to be a bit of love in his eyes, he patted Lin Yi on the shoulder, and said, "What you said is the same, haha, not bad." ”

was suddenly patted on the shoulder by the old man, and Lin Yi suddenly felt a little inexplicable.

Without waiting for Lin Yi to answer, the old man put away the big scissors in his hand, and then said to Lin Yi: "Okay, I have finished repairing the flowers and plants in this yard, I'll go first." You will wait quietly for the arrival of the master of the house!"

After speaking, the old man stopped paying attention to Lin Yuan, turned his head and left.

Only Lin Yi with an inexplicable face was left.

Looking at the old man's distant back, Lin Yi also shook his head, secretly saying that it was worthy of the Lin family in the inner city, and it was an old man who trimmed flowers and plants, and he seemed so unfathomable.

After the old man left, it was only a stick of incense, and a familiar figure appeared in Lin Yi's sight, and this figure was not Lin Yi's father Lin Langtian, but who was it?

And at this moment, when Lin Langtian saw Lin Yi appear in the courtyard where he lived, there was immediately an undisguised expression of joy in his eyes.

He quickly walked in front of Lin Yi, and then said with a happy face: "Yi'er, why are you here? All the way from Huangyang County to Dongjun, have you had any accidents?"

After Lin Yi saw Lin Langtian, he also smiled and said: "The journey went smoothly, no, I just returned to Yanjing City yesterday, and today I came here to say that my father is safe." ”

When Lin Langtian heard this, he immediately smiled with satisfaction, and touched Lin Yi's head lovingly: "Very good!"

"Go, come into the house and talk. Lin Langtian took Lin Yi's hand and walked towards the house in the courtyard.

After walking into the room, Lin Langtian pulled Lin Yi to sit down.

"By the way, father, I haven't congratulated you yet. You are now the new head of the Lin family in the inner city. As soon as he sat down, Lin Yi said with a smile at Lin Langtian.

When Lin Langtian heard this, a puzzled look suddenly appeared on his face: "The new head of the family?"

"No?" The smile on Lin Yi's face instantly froze.

"Naturally not, where did you hear this news?" the puzzled look on Lin Langtian's face became even worse.

At this moment, not only Lin Langtian's face was full of doubts, but Lin Yi's face was also full of doubts.

He said, "Just now when I was waiting for you in the courtyard, a young man who was pruning flowers and plants came here, and he told me the news. ”

"Old man who prunes flowers and plants?" Lin Langtian frowned slightly, and he continued: "I have always been the only one who lives in this courtyard, and the people in the house usually don't dare to come here, and the flowers and plants in my courtyard never need to be pruned. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Langtian then asked Lin Yi: "What does the old man who prunes flowers and plants in your mouth look like?"

"He looks very ordinary, and his clothes are very plain, but his eyes are extremely bright, and there is no slightest cloudiness, I just look at them, and I can feel the rich vicissitudes of life in his eyes. Lin Yi picked up the characteristics of the old man and replied.

When Lin Langtian heard this, he began to ponder, and soon, there was a flash of essence in his eyes, and then he smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "I want to ...... I should know who the old man is. ”

"Who is it?" Lin Yi suddenly asked curiously.

"Forget it, don't mention it. It should be just a joke that the old man made with your little guy, besides, I am not the head of the Lin family in the inner city now, and there is still a long time before I officially take over the entire Lin family. Lin Langtian waved his hand, but in his heart he secretly said that his old man came to his courtyard today? Could it be that his old man had already seen Yi'er's identity?

Otherwise, how could he make such a joke with Yi'er? Besides, what was the purpose of his old man making such a joke with Yi'er?

At this moment, Lin Langtian couldn't help but think like this in his heart.

Lin Yi saw that his father didn't seem to want to tell him who the old man was, and he was extremely curious, but since Lin Langtian was unwilling to speak, Lin Yi naturally wouldn't ask anything.

Because he knew that his father did not explain to him who the old man was, and there must be a reason for him.

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian didn't stay too long on this topic, but asked directly at Lin Yi: "By the way, a few days ago, when the Silent Thunder Sect was destroyed, you and I, father and son, didn't have any opportunity to communicate, and there were many doubts in my father's heart, and the biggest doubt was, why did you suddenly appear in the Silent Destruction Thunder Sect?"

After hearing this, Lin Yi smiled and said: "When the child was in Yanjing City a few days ago, he heard the news that the Silent Ancestor of the Silent Annihilation Thunder Sect would hold his eight-hundred-year-old birthday ceremony, and at that time, the child heard that when the Silent Ancestor Birthday Ceremony opened, nearly half of the immortal cultivation forces in the Southern Chu Immortal Cultivation Realm would send representatives to the Silent Destruction Thunder Sect to celebrate his birthday. ”
