Chapter 76: The Special Ability of Old Ha
It seemed like it had been a long time since this name was mentioned. Lin Xiaoyao paused, nodded and smiled at the general, then continued to devour the delicacies on the table.
Next, Lin Xiaoyao and the general kept eating while Lian Yun and the others merely watched.
During this time, Lian Yun kindly nodded at the two men at the adjacent table. One was clad in black armor, while the other wore traditional Han clothing. Both men nodded in response, but for some reason, they stood up and left the tavern.
After a while, when Lin Xiaoyao was about half full, he suddenly said, "Yun Di seems to be in good spirits; I take it your mind is much clearer now."
Lian Yun smiled slightly but said nothing. He knew that Lin Xiaoyao was concerned about him. Perhaps it was after realizing this that Lin Xiaoyao took the initiative to meet him!
"What are your plans from here on?"
Lian Yun pondered for a moment before replying, "I originally wanted to settle down for a while. However, after Clear and Bright, I will turn eighteen and will strive to leave. If time permits, I might take a break before returning to Huaxia."
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Not only did those around them spit out their drinks in shock, but even Yao Yun'er couldn't help but spray some out. With an awkward expression, she exclaimed, "What? Brother Yun—oh no, Yun Di—are you really not yet eighteen?"
"Come on! Of course I am younger than this general!" The general replied with his mouth full of food, speaking unclearly and sounding annoyed.
Yao Yun'er facepalmed, feeling somewhat speechless.
At twenty-nine years old, she was about a year older than Lian Yun. She never expected that the Brother Yun she had called so many times was actually younger than her by a year. This realization drove her somewhat crazy.
No matter how surprised outsiders were, Lin Xiaoyao felt somewhat delighted.
He understood that Lian Yun emphasized being eighteen because Lian Yun had never lived freely before. Now, stressing it again did not mean he wouldn't strive or grow; rather, it indicated a desire to act according to his own wishes.
In Lin Xiaoyao's eyes, although that might be something that would happen more than two years later, since Lian Yun had such intentions, it meant that he had indeed developed a mindset of ease within himself.
Thus, Lin Xiaoyao no longer asked further questions and continued to eat.
Lian Yun looked at Yao Yun'er and smiled, saying, "You’ve accepted the gift, Yooner. You can’t deny it now!"
Yao Yun'er tossed her head and looked at Xiao Jun with a face full of grievance.
However, Xiao Jun merely sat quietly and did not defend her. Perhaps in his view, although Lian Yun was younger, he was much more mature in various aspects than Yao Yun'er, which made her acknowledge Lian Yun as an older brother without any issues.
As the waiter stopped serving and the dining table was cleared, Lin Xiaoyao elegantly wiped his mouth and then looked at Lian Yun. "Yin Yang City is truly fascinating; it seems quite suitable for your older brothers."
Lian Yun smiled knowingly and nodded.
Yin Yang City was indeed quite fitting for talented young individuals like Lin Feiyu. If he were to come here, he would likely become one of the top three kings within half a year.
However, Lin Feiyu could have already broken through to the Emperor Realm; he just hadn’t done so because Grandma required him to have no descendants before becoming an emperor. Yet excessive suppression could lead to irreparable damage. It seemed that even if Lin Feiyu had not yet broken through to Monarch status now, he would undoubtedly do so within six months.
Moreover, there was Xue Qiong. After arriving here, he might attract the attention of the Peerless Monarch and could either become a key member of their forces or be taken in as a closed-door disciple.
After a moment of silence, Lian Yun nodded and said, "Actually, I plan to return to Huaxia and then bring my brothers over to Yin Yang City. I have a good relationship with Xianjian Sect here, so when they arrive, they will have a temporary support."
"I'm afraid that's not possible; the family of the Sisters-in-law might find it hard to accept."
"Let's see what my elder brother and the others think! After all, it's difficult for the High Emperor to make a move in the alliance, but here we have the Top Emperor, the Peerless Monarch, and even a Half Emperor. The potential for growth is much greater. I believe if my elder brother and the others want to return to Huaxia, it would only take three to five years."
"Hmm... don't you want Grandma to come over?" Lin Xiaoyao suddenly looked puzzled.
No one could clearly understand Grandma's strength, but it was likely that she was either a High Emperor or close to a Peak Monarch. If it were Grandma, she could probably leave Yin Yang City in less than three years.
As long as Grandma made a trip and then returned to Huaxia, the Lin Clan would be able to rest easy.
Lian Yun smiled knowingly and said, "That depends on whether Grandma has completed what she has been holding onto for over twenty years. Otherwise, even if I request it, she wouldn't agree."
Lin Xiaoyao was a bit surprised and very curious. "What is it?"
Lian Yun leaned down, using her spiritual power to form threads and whispered, "Perhaps after we return to the Huaxia Alliance, we might get to meet Grandpa!"
"What?!" Lin Xiaoyao stood up abruptly, her expression shocked beyond measure.
Lian Yun raised her hand to signal Lin Xiaoyao to sit down and said with a somewhat calm expression, "That's the main reason Grandma hasn't left her courtyard for so many years."
Just then, a long black tongue wrapped around Lian Yun's still-outstretched fingers.
Lian Yun was slightly taken aback and saw the Toad Demon next to Lin Xiaoyao. With a plop, its entire belly pressed against her palm, and its large mouth directly engulfed four of her fingers.
Before Lian Yun could wonder about this, she felt an extremely strong devouring force pulling at the spiritual power within her body. One, two, three—within just three breaths, she had lost more than half of her spiritual power.
Then the toad loosened its tongue, plopping down onto the plate below, legs splayed out, looking as if it had eaten too much and was now resting.
At this point, Lin Xiaoyao finally regained his senses and, feeling a bit annoyed, said, "Old Ha, this is my brother! You've seen him before; you old glutton."
In response, Lian Yun didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, she reached out and poked Old Ha's belly with her finger, smiling lightly.
Although she had just learned about Old Ha's abilities, it also made Lian Yun realize that Lin Xiaoyao's self-defense capabilities were much higher than she had imagined. With this mindset, she felt more relaxed and in a better mood.
"Brother, what are your plans next?" Lian Yun asked with a light smile.
However, Lin Xiaoyao showed a helpless expression and replied, "You've already told me such significant news. How can I continue to play around? I naturally need to head back to Huaxia as soon as possible. I'll have to wait until I have time later to come back and have fun."
His words nearly caused the onlookers to choke on their drinks. Was Yin Yang City really a place for leisure? However, since Lian Yun was now ranked third in BSS Tower and Challenge Tower, the crowd refrained from making any sarcastic remarks.
The general nodded and said, "If you have time, please bring that girl Ruo Xue over for me."
Lin Xiaoyao was a bit confused. After Lian Yun explained it to him, he nodded in understanding but did not explicitly agree to the general's request.
