The night is as bright as water.

The treasure chariot carried Lin Xun and the old man all the way through the bustling and prosperous spacious streets and headed deep into the Forbidden City.

"What are you going to do?"

"As the heir of the Lin family, you should bear the responsibility."

“This road is not easy to walk.”

"I see."

In the treasure chariot, Lin Xun and the old man asked and answered questions.

"I want to remind you that Obsidian Church, Miss and I will not help you, because this is your Lin family's business, and you should understand that it is a great deal."

The old man thought for a long time and finally said.

Lin Xun seemed to have thought it would be like this, and said, "I understand."

The old man changed his subject and a secret smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Of course, many people in the Forbidden City now mistakenly think that you have a lot of relationship with Obsidian Church. Since that's the case, it's okay to let them continue to misunderstand."

Lin Xun was stunned, and a warm current surged in his heart. The old man was telling him that although he couldn't help, he could act with the power of the "Obsidian Temple"!

This promise alone is enough for Lin Xun to solve many difficult problems!

Anyone who wants to touch Lin Xun in the future has to consider the power of Obsidian Holy Church, although it is no different from being scary.

But sometimes, this power can often play a key role.

What's more, Lin Xun did not think that Obsidian Temple would really watch himself die, otherwise the old man would never have helped him many times in the past two years.

There must be a reason for this. Lin Xun also thought that this may be related to the summer solstice, or to Mr. Lu, or to his own life experience.

But no matter what, Lin Xun was very sure that he had developed many connections with Obsidian Church and could no longer be separated.

"Senior, thank you."

Lin Xun didn't know how many times he thanked him, but he knew that he had already owe too much favor to the old man.

The old man smiled, his expression as kind and gentle as before.

Not long after, the treasure chariot stopped.

When Lin Xun walked out of the treasure chariot under the guidance of the old man, he was stunned. Not far away, there was a huge mountain floating!

The mountain peak covers hundreds of feet and is thousands of feet high. There are ancient buildings standing on it, lined up one after another.

In the night, the entire mountain is suspended in the void hundreds of feet high, and a layer of silver moonlight is filled with all over the body, which looks majestic and holy.

This is one of the seventy-two peaks of the "mountain of the clan"!

As early as outside the Forbidden City, Lin Xun had seen it from afar, but when he looked up close, he realized how majestic and spectacular the mountain was.

"This peak is called Xixin. This is the place where your Lin clan occupies. However, since the bloody incident that happened, other members of the Lin clan have moved out of the peak one after another. Now, there is only one old servant here to guard it."

The old man said warmly.

Lin Xun was shocked. He didn't expect that with the power of the Lin family, he could occupy one of the 72 peaks of the "mountain of the clan"!

From this we can infer that the Lin family back then was at least a medium-sized family force!

"But as far as I know, once the aristocratic families on the mountain decline, their position on the 'Aristocratic Mountain' will be taken away. What's going on?"

Lin Xun couldn't help asking.

"These are complicated and involve some of the past events of your Lin family. After you move into this Xixin Peak, someone will naturally tell you all this."

The old man said, suddenly walked forward, waved his sleeves and a ray of light swept out, knocking on the bottom of the Xixin Peak in the void a hundred feet away.

Only then did Lin Xun see that a spiritual array was arranged at the bottom of the Xixin Peak!

Buzz ~

The rays of clouds hit the spiritual formation, creating a ripples-like wave, and the spiritual patterns rolled, which was extremely mysterious.

Immediately, a voice came from the spiritual formation: "This is Xixin Peak, the place where the Lin clan is entrenched. I wonder which friend came to visit?"

The old man whispered: "Lin Wenjing's son is back."

Suddenly, a scream rang out: "What!? Guest wait!"

The old man turned his head and explained: "The mountain of a clan is like a forbidden land. If you do not report it, outsiders will never be able to break into it."

Lin Xun nodded.

Not long after, the spiritual array at the bottom of the Xixin Peak churned, reflecting a portal surrounded by spiritual light.

At the same time, a row of steps lie down like a rainbow light, connecting with the ground. From a distance, it looks like a cloud ladder swaying upwards.

An old man with a hunchback came out of the door and walked down the ground along the steps. He first glanced at the old man suspiciously, then looked at Lin Xun.

Just one glance, the hunchbacked old man knelt on the ground and cried bitterly, "Master, more than ten years have passed. The old servant thought you had already... had passed, but he didn't expect that you would be lucky and alive!"

Lin Xun was caught off guard and was stunned.

"He is not Lin Wenjing, but Lin Wenjing's son."

The old man explained.

The old servant who was crying froze all over. He raised his head, wiped away the tears in his eyes, looked at Lin Xun carefully, and then said in a daze for a while: "It's true that's not. He is younger than the young master, and he looks very much like when his master was young..."

As he said that, he suddenly stood up and said excitedly: "So... it turns out you are really the master's son? God has eyes! Master has not cut off the back! Hahahahahaha..."

His lips trembled and cried with joy. His emotions were obviously out of control and he seemed a little crazy, but the excitement, surprise, and surprise could not be concealed.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xun felt inexplicably sad and said, "Old man, take me to the clan to have a look."

But when the old servant suddenly took a deep breath, his expression was solemn, and he bowed and bowed: "Welcome to the young master home!" The etiquette is standard and meticulous.

Lin Xun was stunned and looked at the old man next to him.

The old man nodded with a smile: "Go, it's time for me to go back."

Lin Xun bowed and said, "Senior, thank you for this time. I will personally go to the Obsidian Temple to thank you!"

The old man waved his hand and his figure floated away.

"Young Master, please!"

The old servant reached out and made a call.

Lin Xun nodded, took a deep breath and climbed up the steps.

Xixin Peak.

This is the place where the Lin clan is occupied, and it is also where my father and mother once lived. After nearly fifteen years, I finally came back!

When you enter the portal, you have already arrived at Xixin Peak and you will see a spacious bluestone road that is more than ten feet long, winding and winding, leading to the top of the peak.

On both sides of the road, there are ancient temples with staggered arrangements, ancient pavilions and towers, lush flowers and plants, and strong ancient trees.

From time to time, you can see waterfalls, flowing springs, bamboos and lush forests. Under the night moonlight, the scenery is like a painting, like a fairyland.

"Young Master, please!"

The old servant led the way in front. From the first glance he saw Lin Xun, he knew that it would be absolutely impossible to be wrong, because Lin Xun was so similar to Lin Wenjing when he was young that he could not be disguised at all.

Lin Xun looked around while walking forward.

The old servant said, "Just call me Lin Zhong. When my master was just born, I was sent by the clan elder to do things. In a flash, decades have passed."

Lin Zhong's voice sighed.

Lin Xun could not call him by his name directly and said, "Uncle Zhong, don't call me Young Master, just call me Lin Xun."

But when Lin Zhong was stunned, he shook his head and said, "Young Master, the family rules cannot be changed!"

Lin Xun had no choice but to change the topic: "Now, you are the only one left on the Xixin Peak?"

Lin Zhong's expression suddenly became depressed, and he obviously remembered the sad things.

Seeing this, Lin Xun patted Lin Zhong on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhong, from now on, I will stay in this Xixin Peak like you. There are many things I don't know yet, and I hope you can tell me one by one."

Lin Zhong suddenly felt refreshed and nodded fiercely, as if he had found the backbone.

Walking hundreds of feet up the mountain, when we were about to reach the top of the mountain, a burst of joy and laughter came from afar, which seemed particularly noisy and harsh under the quiet night.

Lin Xun was stunned and saw that in a magnificent ancient building on the top of the mountain, there were bright lights at this time, and the noisy sound came from it.

Before, Lin Zhong had introduced that the main hall standing on the top of the mountain was called the Xixin Hall, covering an area of ​​dozens of acres. Only the immediate relatives of the clan leader are qualified to live and practice here.

But now, the lights in the Palace of Cleansing Heart are brightly lit and there are constant joy and laughter. Compared with the desertedness and desolation in other places, it seems extremely abrupt.

"Young Master, this is the young master and lady from other branches of our Lin family gathering with friends. I have also stopped him before, but..."

Lin Zhong quickly explained, but at the end, he wanted to speak but stopped and looked depressed.

"They don't care at all, right?"

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, "I remember that more than ten years ago, other members of the Lin family had moved out of the Xixin Peak, why did those young masters and ladies still come?"

Lin Zhong smiled bitterly: "Young Master, you just came back and don't know the situation..."

Lin Xun interrupted: "Uncle Zhong, tell me first, are those young masters and ladies qualified to enter the Xixin Temple to drink and have fun?"
