Seeing Su Jie, the woman in palace clothes said with a smile.
Su Jie didn't know what the purpose of these two old guys came over. They were just spying on him.
Su Jie just responded lightly and said nothing more.
But at this moment, Su Jie suddenly felt something in his heart. He turned around and saw a group of beautiful women walking over not far away. Most of them were young girls, and among these young girls,
In the middle, there was an old lady with silver hair and brocade clothes.
The old lady held a dragon-head crutch and wore a gold hairpin on her head. Although her face was wrinkled, her face was still healthy and rosy.
The woman in palace attire and Lin Xintong's sixth uncle immediately came forward to greet her. Yi Yun naturally understood that this old lady with silver hair and golden clothes was the old lady of the Lin family.
Apart from a few Supreme Elders, this old lady is the most powerful person in the Lin family, especially in terms of the Lin family's internal affairs.
However, although the old lady of the Lin family held such a high position, she did not give anyone any sense of oppression. Yi Yun really felt that the old lady in front of him was just like an ordinary old lady from a wealthy family, as amiable and approachable.
"Xintong, how long will it take for you to be in seclusion this time..."
The old lady looked at Lin Xintong lovingly, and Lin Xintong smiled sweetly and said, "Originally, Xintong wanted to go to pay respects to our ancestor today, but we didn't expect that our ancestor came here in person."
Lin Xintong loved and respected the old lady of the Lin family.
This was the elder who loved her the most. When Lin Xintong suffered a lot of neglect in the family, the old lady always cared for her.
If the old lady has any wishes, she will try her best to achieve them.
Seeing the old ladies of the Lin family arriving, Su Jie felt a little embarrassed for a moment. He originally had a private conversation with Lin Xintong today and wanted to ask Lin Xintong what she thought, but he hadn't entered the courtyard of Lin Xintong's bamboo house yet.
Well, so many important figures from the Lin family came in succession, even the old lady was alarmed.
Although Su Jie is Lin Xintong's master, he is still an outsider when it comes to the Lin family's housework. Especially in front of the old lady, it is inconvenient for him to say some things.
However, Mrs. Lin guessed what Su Jie was thinking and took the initiative to say: "Xintong, your master is here today. If you have anything to say, just say it. This matter has been dragged on for two years. The Presbyterian Church gang
The old guys have been arguing endlessly, and the Shentu family has been very annoyed in the past two years. Maybe... it's time to make a decision."
After Mrs. Lin said these words, Lin Xintong's great-aunt and sixth uncle all pricked up their ears. They knew that in front of Lin Xintong, even if Mrs. Lin just nodded her head slightly, she would speak loudly to them.
Thousands of sentences, millions of sentences.
This old lady’s attitude is so important!
At this time, it was not appropriate for Su Jie to speak. He could only look at Lin Xintong and let Lin Xintong decide everything.
Su Jie was also very conflicted mentally. He was more inclined to let Lin Xintong refuse the marriage. He had been fighting for Lin Xintong's natural Yin veins for so many years and read all the ancient books, but he still could not get a solution. But now,
The Shentu family, whom he had always disliked, claimed to have found a way, which he couldn't accept emotionally.
But... he was also worried that if Lin Xintong refused the marriage, he would not be able to save Lin Xintong. In that case, Lin Xintong might have to die young and lightly. Su Jie certainly didn't want to see such an ending.
Lin Xintong pursed her lips and fell silent.
Everyone looked at Lin Xintong, and Yi Yun also paid attention to Lin Xintong's expression, guessing what she was thinking.
"Let's go to the courtyard first."
Lin Xintong said lightly and led the old lady, Su Jie and others into the small courtyard of the bamboo house.
The small courtyard was small and elegantly decorated. There was an antique rattan chair in the middle of the courtyard. Lin Xintong first invited the old lady to sit down, and then Su Jie, his sixth uncle, and his great-aunt followed him.
Lin Xintong brewed a pot of tea and said softly: "Xintong knew from the time he was sensible that he was born with an inexhaustible pulse and was destined to die young in the future. Our ancestors loved Xintong so much that Xintong practiced martial arts when he was young, using the family's elixirs.
Medicine and relics are the best part. At that time, some older cousins felt uncomfortable. They said that I was already destined to die, but I still wanted to waste family resources. If these
If you give them something, what will they do? Those aunts and uncles always look at Xintong in a strange way, secretly saying that Xintong is a little disaster star who has been cursed to have such a physique..."
When Lin Xintong said this, her voice was always calm, but Yi Yun and Su Jie felt sad. It is conceivable that in the absence of their ancestors, a young girl with the highest self-esteem was ridiculed and ridiculed like this.
, the stimulation to her young mind can be imagined.
Yi Yun knew that the hardships Lin Xintong went through when she was growing up were definitely more than what she said.
When he first met Lin Xintong, he only thought that she was a proud daughter of heaven, like a mountain snow lotus, who could not eat the fireworks of the world. How had he ever thought that she would have such a childhood?
"My child, I'm sorry for you." The old lady sighed and touched Lin Xintong's face lovingly.
Lin Xintong gently supported the old lady's old hand and continued: "When I was a child, every time Xintong was sad, my ancestors told Xintong that it is not impossible to heal if the heart is born with a broken pulse.
If Hitomi can renew her own terminal bloodline, she will become the strongest empress in the entire Tianyuan world."
"From that moment on, Xintong has sworn in his heart that he will continue to have the ultimate pulse in this life."
"I am not willing to be arranged like this by fate. I am not willing to be watched by them. I even look forward to dying."
"This idea began to take root, sprout, and grow when I was very young. Slowly, it became my biggest obsession and pursuit in this life."
When Lin Xintong said this, Yi Yun remembered what Lin Xintong said when he was in Yunhuang Huangren Valley.
At that time, he just felt that Lin Xintong was pure and pure, with firm beliefs. He knew that things could not be done, but he did not know why Lin Xintong acted like this.
At this time, Lin Xintong's great-aunt couldn't help it anymore and said: "Xintong, now that you have figured it out, why are you still hesitating? The opportunity is right in front of you now, as long as you nod your head,
Didn’t you realize your obsession when you were young? When the time comes, you will become a peerless empress that will last for generations to come. That is something that no one can envy!"
"When you were a child, your great-aunt did not care enough for you, but... there are so many children in the family, which elder can take into account the feelings of each child? Your great-aunt was indifferent to you when you were young, but now she is
I have come to see you again and again with this old face to persuade you. I know that in your heart you have no good impression of such a snobbish person like my great-aunt, and you are full of contempt and disdain, but you just don’t say it on your lips."
"But what my aunt said is also true. Xintong, I won't mention family or anything now. I know you don't like to hear that. Then my aunt will ask you, compared with life or innocence, which do you think is more important?
?”
This woman in palace clothes was also sincere and sincere, and Yi Yun had to admit that given her current unpopular status, it was quite pertinent for her to say such things.
Which is more important, life or innocence?
I believe that 99% of girls will choose the former.
Lin Xintong nodded, "My aunt is right. I already understood these principles when I returned to the family two years ago and received this news."
"But... I don't want to. It's not because I hate the Shentu family so much, nor does it have anything to do with Shentu Nantian's questionable character. It's just because... I don't want to use my body to change the path of martial arts that has been carefully paved by others.
"
"My determination when I was young was not only to continue the Jue Meridian, but also to explore the peak of martial arts after continuing the Jue Meridian."
"Those who practice martial arts, the path of martial arts lies in their hearts. Practicing martial arts is also a struggle with heaven, which is inherently difficult!"
"It is difficult to continue the innate peerless veins, but is it difficult to surpass the peerless emperor? However, there are still people who have achieved it above the peerless emperor."
"A warrior's practice of martial arts is originally about overcoming thorns and thorns, and forcibly opening a path on a dangerous peak that has no way to go before. If I had to sell my own beliefs and body to find such a path, then maybe I could become the Great Emperor.
, so what? The seeds of failure have been planted in my heart, and the faith I sold out will never be found again. Then I will probably not have any more breakthroughs after the Great Emperor, and I probably won’t be able to achieve it.
The state of that peerless empress back then."
"This is not what I want. My life has just begun. Although my life seems very short to you, it is already extremely long to mortals. I have made up my mind to fight against fate. Now, my life
The struggle has just begun, I still have nearly five hundred years to use, why should I give up now?"
After Lin Xintong said these words, everyone fell silent.
Yi Yun took a deep breath. Lin Xintong's words really shocked him. This woman was so strong-willed that he could almost say he had never seen her before in his life.
The old lady jumped slightly, but finally sighed, "Xintong, you are still so stubborn, but sometimes, there are some roads that cannot be walked by faith."
After all, the old lady has experienced a lot, and she has more respect for the world.
When people are young, they are often arrogant and arrogant. They want to challenge everything in this world. They believe that man can conquer nature. They think that as long as they have perseverance and ability, they can accomplish anything.
However, compared to young people, the elderly are more inclined to succumb to reality. In the final analysis, the old lady still does not believe that Lin Xintong can defeat the inevitable fate after giving up the opportunity provided by the Shentu family.
Many times, reality is much crueler than ideal.
Next to Su Jie, Yi Yun could tell that the old lady of the Lin family cared most about Lin Xintong's life. She didn't want a white-haired person to give away a black-haired person.
So...she is actually already inclined to accept the Shentu family's proposal.
Yi Yun suddenly said: "Do you all think that the Shentu family can definitely cure Miss Lin?"
