Ghost Fiend Sect, Divine Machine Mountain.
Lin Yan, still dressed in green, walked into the sect's main hall with a calm smile and light steps.
Upon seeing the elders, he remained calm and composed, and with a particularly warm smile, greeted them, saying, "Greetings, elders!"
"Greetings, Young Miss!" Lin Yan's politeness made the elders somewhat flustered, and they hurriedly returned the greeting.
Outsiders simply don't understand their thoughts.
Lin Yan had outmaneuvered them, yet she still showed them so much courtesy, which made them feel quite embarrassed and even more ashamed to face others. That's why they seemed even more flustered when they saw the increasingly respectful Lin Yan.
At this moment, they would rather see an arrogant young lady who completely disregards them, the elders.
However, no one expected that since the young lady returned to the sect this time, she has become even more humble and approachable.
In the past, although the young lady wouldn't throw a tantrum, it was because she was distant from them. Everyone knew that the young lady and her father, who was also their sect leader, used to have frequent and heated arguments.
In other words, when the young lady gets stubborn, she even dares to talk back to the sect leader.
Of course, they had some suspicions about such a young lady before and had always treated her with caution.
Now, however, they see a young lady with an almost completely different aura. This makes people wonder what happened to her during her absence that caused her to suddenly become so humble.
"Greetings, Father." After greeting the elders, Lin Yan walked to the center of the main hall and immediately bowed to her father.
"Yan'er, what brings you here? I had someone invite your Ghost Uncle." Lin Mo gestured slightly, coughed lightly, and asked softly.
Lin Yan turned around calmly, her back to her father, and glanced at the elders present. She smiled faintly and said, "That's because I guessed that Father summoned me, Uncle Ghost, to ask something. Last time, Father didn't take a word I said to heart, did he? Today, you have some doubts in your heart, so you thought of summoning me, Uncle Ghost, to ask you something, right?"
"Cough cough." Lin Mo really felt a slight headache when he saw his daughter.
The woman is truly exceptionally intelligent, just like her mother when she was young.
His daughter was too outspoken and straightforward, which sometimes made her, the sect leader, feel slightly embarrassed and unable to save face.
However, this feeling is just like her mother's back then; he still cherishes this precious daughter dearly.
The elders chuckled inwardly, but outwardly they all pretended to be clueless and oblivious. After all, the sect leader's authority was not to be offended.
Lin Mo also gave up on his daughter and said, "Yan'er, you know everything, so please tell your father and uncles what happened. Last time, I was only focused on the perfect repair of the Yellow Spring Umbrella and didn't pay attention to what you were saying. It was all my fault. I apologize to you."
"Father, I don't blame you at all." Lin Yan turned around gently, looked at her father, and said with a hint of heartache.
Seeing the tender look in her daughter's eyes warmed Lin Mo's heart. She finally realized that her daughter was indeed sensible and lovable.
I felt a deep sense of relief.
"Yan'er has become so sensible," Lin Mo said with great emotion.
Unwilling to reveal his true nature in front of the elders, he forced himself to be dignified and said, "Yan'er, then tell your father and uncles what exactly happened."
Lin Yan smiled faintly and nodded gently, saying, "Alright, Father, please allow me to tell you."
Smiling, Lin Yan remained composed and exuded an impressive aura in front of her father, the sect leader, and all the elders and bigwigs of the sect. She calmly said, "Actually, it's quite simple. The repair of the sect's treasure, the Yellow Spring Umbrella, and the increased strength of Yan'er and Gui Bo were all given by one person. That person is Ye Liang, a disciple of the Bixian Sect! He gave them to me, my brother Ye."
"You seem to have mentioned someone like that." Lin Mo nodded immediately, indicating that he vaguely remembered. Although he was still reeling from the restoration of his beloved wife's cherished Yellow Spring Umbrella, he hadn't really paid attention to his daughter's words. However, now that his daughter had brought it up again, he recalled that she had mentioned this name before.
"How old is this man? He's old enough for the young lady to call him Brother Ye, yet he already possesses the skill to repair one of our sect's secret treasures, the Yellow Spring Umbrella?"
Finally, the young lady explained things to them, clearing up their doubts. The elders all had many questions they wanted to ask the young lady about this person.
"The Jade Immortal Sect? This sect has been declining in reputation for years. If it weren't for the young lady mentioning it today, I would have thought it had disappeared. I didn't expect it to become famous again in the martial arts world? But, isn't this a female-only sect? How come there's a Brother Ye here? Is he neither male nor female?"
"Sigh, I don't care about any of that. I just want to know, how did this person manage to repair the Yellow Spring Umbrella, a priceless treasure that none of us can understand, in an instant! This skill is something that none of us here, including the sect leader, possess! Don't blame me for being blunt, but that's the truth. Sect leader, don't you agree?"
This elder of the War Soul Hall was indeed a rough man whose fighting prowess matched his temper; when he spoke, he didn't even care about the sect leader's reputation.
He still speaks very bluntly.
This caused the other elders to chuckle inwardly, but they were used to it.
Even Sect Master Lin Mo didn't blame him, and nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, I've been thinking about this too. This Yellow Spring Umbrella is no ordinary object; it can only be repaired with great supernatural powers. Faced with this insurmountable barrier, even I and the elders are helpless. We've searched through all the sect's records, but we still haven't found the answer. Father really wants to know how he managed to repair our Yellow Spring Umbrella. I wonder what rare and precious materials he used to repair it."
"Brother Ye, he's useless!" Lin Yan knew no one would believe her, but she didn't care at all whether others believed her or not.
"I know you won't believe me, but when my brother Ye repaired the Yellow Spring Umbrella, it was as simple as you picking up chopsticks to eat. He didn't use anything; he just held it in his hand and made a tapping motion, and that's how my Yellow Spring Umbrella was perfectly repaired. I know you won't believe it, and I didn't believe it at the time either. But the Yellow Spring Umbrella has been repaired, that's a fact, isn't it!"
"I don't believe it!" The elder of the War Soul Hall immediately stood up, waved his hand, and said firmly.
The other elders also sighed helplessly and shook their heads, clearly not believing it, but unlike the War Soul Hall elder, they wouldn't be impulsive enough to stand up and overturn the table.
