As a voice fell.
Suddenly, a white-haired, crane-faced Taoist appeared in the arena. He had a peaceful expression and looked at Han Yingwei with a calm gaze.
The appearance of this person caused a hint of seriousness to appear on the latter's usually composed face.
The expressions of the two members of the Han family also changed drastically.
The Zhou family patriarch immediately relaxed, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
Wang Xinglang, however, revealed a hint of surprise and uncertainty in his eyes.
"He's here too? This... What's the situation with Uncle Yangshan's disciple?! It seems we need to find out more about him."
The Fourth Elder, True Man Yuanlong, is a master of the spiritual vein and a powerful expert who has reached the late stage of the Golden Core realm. He is not like Han Yingwei, who is somewhat unreliable.
The Fourth Elder was once a prodigy of the Spirit Vein, having risen to the position of Chief of the Spirit Vein, and has worked his way up to where he is today!
He can be considered one of the few individuals in the Cloud Soaring Sect with the greatest power and the strongest combat strength!
Unexpectedly, even he stepped in to protect Lin Xiuyuan!
What's going on with Lin Xiuyuan?
Wang Xinglang felt that they should find out more so that they could reaffirm their relationship.
After all, Lin Xiuyuan is Wang Yangshan's disciple, so his position is naturally on the side of the Wang family. If he wants to win over and strengthen the relationship between the two sides, it is still simple, since being close to the water tower gives him an advantage.
I hadn't thought of it this way before, purely because my family had another genius from the Spirit Heaven realm. Of course, if you really count, there are two!
It's impossible for them to support outsiders.
Moreover, Lin Xiuyuan has now clashed with the Han family, which is currently at the height of its power and accumulating the foundation of a large family. In the current situation, anyone who goes against them is undoubtedly courting death, giving the Han family an excuse and a channel to expand their base!
Therefore, the Wang family has never intended to pay any attention to Lin Xiuyuan.
But now, even someone as influential as the Fourth Elder has come out to support him!
Therefore, we must re-examine this!
What exactly is the situation with Lin Xiuyuan?
"I never expected this boy to alarm you..."
Han Yingwei's expression turned grave, his eyes darkening slightly. "It seems my Enforcement Hall can't take this kid away today? We'll have to go to the Elders' Council to discuss a match, is that right, Senior Brother Yuanlong?!"
"Junior brothers, we can investigate this matter slowly. There's no need to take him directly to the Enforcement Hall!"
"It's highly likely that your family has lost a prodigy, which we can understand. Why don't you come in with me and find out the truth?"
Elder Yuanlong smiled and spoke in a calm tone.
Upon seeing this, Han Weiying's expression hardened, and he narrowed his eyes, looking at the composed Yuanlong Zhenren. After a long pause, he said, "Since that's the case, then I must offend you, Senior Brother Yuanlong. I will convene a meeting at the Elder Council!"
After saying this, Han Weiying clasped her hands in a fist salute, turned around, and left.
He knew that now that the Fourth Elder had shown up, he had no choice but to give up.
If we want to target Lin Xiuyuan now, we can only act according to the sect rules. It will probably be difficult to bring him to the Enforcement Hall to carry out the attack in secret.
But it was fortunate that they were in a sect; otherwise, a powerful expert like Yuan Long alone would have been enough to suppress the five Golden Core cultivators of the Han family!
However, he didn't understand why Yuan Long would stand up for Lin Xiuyuan!
A single prodigy, especially a monster who has reached the level of invincible combat power, is indeed worthwhile.
But it depends on the situation.
After all, it's the Han family that's causing trouble for Lin Xiuyuan now, with three Golden Core cultivators directly involved, and even the Han family patriarch himself stepping in to arrest him...
Even though the Han family has only recently risen to prominence, given time, there is still a great chance that they will produce a powerful expert at the late Golden Core stage in the future.
Such a powerful family would not be offended by anyone, let alone a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, or even a Golden Core Perfection cultivator.
Elder Yuanlong was willing to offend the Han family to protect Lin Xiuyuan.
There must be something he doesn't know about.
On the way back.
Han Yingwei said in a deep voice, "Investigate, what's going on with Lin Xiuyuan that he could actually get the Fourth Elder, Yuanlong, who has been cultivating diligently for many years, to show up?!"
"Yes, go back and instruct your subordinates to investigate this matter thoroughly."
Han Mingye nodded.
The two of them naturally noticed that something was wrong.
It was inevitable that the Zhou and Wang families would step in, as they were somewhat connected to Lin Xiuyuan and even shared a blood relationship with him.
However, even the Fourth Elder, Yuan Long, who usually focuses on his cultivation and doesn't interfere much in the affairs of the sect, actually made an appearance.
There must be some hidden story behind this!
After seeing the three Golden Core cultivators from the Han family leave.
Elder Yuanlong then looked at Wang Yangshan and said, "The spiritual item will be ready by tomorrow at the latest. You can bring that little guy to my cave tomorrow."
"With my intervention, the Han family should not come knocking again. Even if we hold a council meeting, it shouldn't cause any trouble."
"Thank you, Fourth Elder!"
Wang Yangshan immediately cupped his hands and performed a grand salute.
"It's alright. After all, he is a prodigy of Lingxiao Sect and has made such a great contribution to the sect. It would be a bit unreasonable for an old man like me not to come out and make some noise."
Elder Yuanlong waved his hand. "Alright, now that the matter is settled, I'll take my leave. Goodbye, my two junior brothers."
The three immediately bowed and saw him off.
A smile crept into the eyes of the Zhou family patriarch, who was secretly delighted. "It seems this little fellow has enough protection to grow up smoothly. Now I can finally rest easy!"
A look of relief spread across the face of the Zhou family patriarch. His spirits and energy seemed to have changed, as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden and felt completely relaxed!
After bowing to the two of them, he also transformed into a streak of light and departed.
Seeing the Zhou family patriarch leave, Wang Xinglang looked at Wang Yangshan, whose mouth was oozing blood, sighed, and said:
“Uncle Yangshan, why go to such lengths? The Han family’s attitude is very clear. They’ve mobilized three Golden Core cultivators and even the Han family patriarch himself…”
"The family will basically not provide you with any assistance. Although you have the protection of the Fourth Elder, how long can that protection last? Right now, your disciple has only made this great contribution, which is why the Fourth Elder has stepped in. This is definitely not a long-term solution. After all, the Han family has made it clear that they will not allow Lin Xiuyuan to grow up smoothly!"
