"The young master wants to see you. Are you coming with me now, or will you come later?" Zhu Tianqing asked casually.

"Young Master?" Zhu Tianxin thought of Immortal Mist Island and felt as if he had been transported back to another world. He hadn't been back for so long. He would occasionally exchange letters with the old folks on the island, and he heard that everyone there was old and there were very few juniors left.

At 11:15 AM, Zhu Lin was standing in the courtyard when two white afterimages suddenly leaped over the wall. If Zhu Lin hadn't had exceptional eyesight, most people wouldn't have been able to see what those two white figures were.

The two white figures launched extremely fierce attacks, with two sharp swords thrusting towards Zhu Lin at the same time. The boy slightly turned his body and easily dodged the attack. Then, the boy raised his hand and made a move before anyone could see his action.

With two clangs, two gleaming swords fell to the ground, and the two old men were also shaken by the force of the young man's palm strike, staggering back a few steps.

Zhu Tianxin and Zhu Tianwan exchanged a glance in the night, both seeing shock and satisfaction in each other's eyes. As expected of the young master of Immortal Mist Island, although he was only a little over ten years old, his strength was exceptionally powerful. Even the two old guys working together were no match for the boy.

"Greetings, young master." The two old men respectfully clasped their hands in greeting.

Zhu Lin was not annoyed by their probing, nor did he want to waste words. He spoke very directly, "I heard that your sons and grandsons are all officials of the imperial court. I have a matter that I need their assistance with."

...

After the two elderly people left, the boy remained standing in the courtyard. After a while, Xingxing blinked and came out of the house towards the boy. "Brother Lin, why are you still standing here? It's late, you should go to sleep."

The little girl has developed a habit of needing the boy to tell her bedtime stories to lull her to sleep, otherwise she can't fall asleep.

"I have important things to do tonight, Xingxing, go to sleep first. I'll tell you a story." Zhu Lin's intention was to coax her to sleep, but he didn't want to hide his decision to go out tonight from her.

Xingxing instantly woke up, her eyes sparkling. "What are we going to do? I want to go too! Can I come along?"

“You need to sleep at night, or you won’t grow tall.” Zhu Lin looked conflicted, as if he were already an adult, without considering that he was only eleven years old, yet he kept saying that others would not grow tall.

"I won't stop growing taller, I'll grow taller if I eat more, Brother Lin, can you take me with you, okay?" Xingxing tugged at his clothes.

Zhu Lin frowned and quickly compromised without any principles, "Okay, but you're not allowed to doze off on the way."

The boy was only worried that she might fall asleep on the way, and didn't consider anything else, such as whether the little girl would be scared. Perhaps the girl in her past life was too carefree; apart from crying for a long time when the Dragon King and Dragon Emperor were in trouble, she had rarely shown any fear.

Zhu Lin's thinking was different from that of ordinary people, which can be seen from his speaking and handling style.
