"Do you know why I sent you to investigate?" asked Lin's father.
Lin Wei lowered his head and said, "I was the biggest suspect when Brother Su was attacked. Father is giving his son a chance to prevent others from framing him."
"That's good to know." Father Lin waved his hand and said, "You can go on your own. If we can't find the truth, you will be the only one who will bear the consequences."
Lin Wei nodded in agreement.
On Lin Su's side, Fairy Ruo Miao directly opened the Duobao Pavilion and selected a lot of magical weapons from it, almost arming Lin Su to the teeth.
"Mom, isn't this thing going to be auctioned next month?" Lin Su said while playing with a lotus-shaped magic weapon.
Fairy Ruo Miao said indifferently, "Good things should be kept for one's family. How can I sell them and let my son suffer? You're lucky this time, but next time... Your parents are sometimes in seclusion, and it's not easy for them to protect you all the time. Sometimes I have to pay some attention to you."
"This Jiu Yue Jue is good, you should keep it too." Fairy Ruo Miao saw another suitable one and stuffed it directly into Lin Su's arms.
After collecting a large amount of magical instruments and spirit stones, Lin Su sighed, "My mother treats me well."
Fairy Ruo Miao looked at him suspiciously: "Why are you so sentimental? If your mother doesn't treat you well, who else can she treat well? Only when you get married and have children in the future can you bring home a wife who can share your glory."
Lin Su sighed and said, "I'm not kidding. I didn't know the importance of things in Wanbao City before. After escaping death this time, I realized that those guards who usually claim to be loyal are not reliable at all. When Dad came to find me, I realized that only my parents really treat me well."
People always have insights at the critical moment of life and death. If they have not really experienced life and death, they will not have such feelings. Fairy Ruo Miao looked at Lin Su with a tear in her eyes and said, "My son has suffered a lot during his trip, and he has grown up. I am very relieved." Miao Miao said
"Mom, don't cry. If Dad sees it, he'll think I bullied you." Lin Su took out a handkerchief from his storage ring with great difficulty and wiped her tears.
Fairy Ruo Miao is really made of water.
As such careful and thoughtful parents, I had high hopes for my son in the past, but I was occasionally hurt by his self-righteousness. I was relieved to see him grow a little.
Fairy Ruo Miao took the handkerchief and wiped her tears: "It's not that Mom doesn't want to stop, it's that she can't stop..."
Her tears were crystal clear. Lin Su sometimes didn't understand why his daughter could cry so easily, but since she was crying, he had to comfort her: "If my father really saw it, he would definitely scold me."
"He dares!" Fairy Ruo Miao snorted, "Don't be afraid, Bao'er. If your father dares to scold you, your mother will protect you."
When she talked about her husband, the anger on her face disappeared.
Lin Su obtained a lot of treasures and spirit stones, and the place where he lived was full of spiritual energy, which could be called a blessed place for cultivation. As long as he practiced diligently, it would not be a problem for him to achieve great success in the future.
He closed the door, and a magic circle formed outside that no one else could easily enter. He sat cross-legged in meditation, practicing his skills. The spiritual energy was swallowed into his body like a whale, and sank into his dantian. His dantian was overflowing, and he should have broken through, but Lin Su used the spiritual energy to circulate in his meridians again, peeling off the impurities that had been deposited by taking the elixir bit by bit.
He had practiced cultivation more than once, so he knew that cultivation was like building a house. The foundation was the most important. If the foundation was unstable, even a hundred-foot-high building would easily collapse.
When practicing cultivation, one must never harm oneself because of a momentary greed for success or recklessness, otherwise the consequences will be endless.
There is no such thing as time in cultivation. Lin Su has been in seclusion for more than a month this time. His cultivation has not improved at all, but the impurities in his body have been mostly removed.
It was a rare occasion for him to go into seclusion, which caused heated discussions in the City Lord's Mansion. However, most people just thought that he was frightened by the trip and was just cramming for exams. After a few days of comfort in the city, he would probably return to his old ways.
Naturally, such remarks were just circulating in their minds. When Lin Wei led people to investigate the person who wanted to harm Lin Su, no one would put themselves in the spotlight.
Lin Su knew what was being said in the mansion without even having to listen. After removing about 70% of the impurities, he felt relieved: [06, I need a Jueyu ring that simulates my cultivation level.]
One must improve their cultivation, but this cannot be known to anyone. If one has a jade pendant that hides one's cultivation, it will eventually be discovered by others. Once the progress of cultivation is too fast, it will surely arouse the jealousy of others.
Making a fortune quietly is currently the best way for Lin Su to deal with the world.
The system naturally has everything. A black jade ring fell into Lin Su's hand and was worn on his thumb.
The original person was rich and showed it everywhere, so having an extra jade pendant and a few more rings on his body would not attract much attention.
When Lin Su came out of seclusion, his attendants were waiting outside the door. When they saw him come out, they were extremely respectful: "Master Su, please go to the city lord."
Lin Su took a gilded fan in his hand, opened it, and fanned himself with it, saying, "What's the matter? Why did you ask me to come over?"
The attendant said, "Master Wei has discovered the murderers who intended to murder Master Su. The City Lord said that those people will be dealt with according to your will."
"Murderer?!" Lin Su looked a little surprised. "Did someone want to harm me during this training? How is that possible? I have never offended anyone before."
After these words were spoken, not only did the servant who came to report feel embarrassed, but even the guard who was originally guarding his door had a stiff expression, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Lin Su hummed: "Is there anything wrong with what I said?"
The attendant quickly bowed his head and said, "Young Master is kind-hearted and has never offended anyone."
"A kind-hearted person?" Lin Su walked down the stairs, closed his folding fan, and tapped the attendant's stiff shoulder. "I'm not kind-hearted. My father said that when dealing with enemies, we must be as ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves."
When Lin Su arrived at the punishment hall, Lin's father was obviously waiting there. Perhaps because the hall was dark, his expression looked somewhat hostile. It was not until he saw Lin Su come in that his expression softened slightly: "Duobao, come here."
Lin Su paused. He was still a little uncomfortable with this name after hearing it so many times, but since it was a nickname, he probably couldn't change it: "Dad."
"You've been in seclusion for a month, and you seem much calmer." Father Lin patted his shoulder and turned his gaze to the few people bound by the magic circle on the torture instruments. "Do you know who they are?"
Lin Su was a bit more obedient here: "The guard said that this time it was me who was harmed."
Seeing that he didn't seem to care, Father Lin asked, "Do you know the reason?"
Lin Su replied, "Of course I want to know the reason. I don't think I have offended anyone."
He now seemed more communicative than before, not as rebellious as before. Father Lin said, "My son has a pure heart, but he can't stop others from having more thoughts. Wanbao City has always had the tradition of adoption. If the city lord has no children, they will choose an outstanding person from the side branches to adopt. Dad was also the adopted son of the previous city lord. The previous city lord never married and had no children. Dad also suffered a lot of calculations when he was the adopted son. And you are Dad's biological son. A gentleman is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure. Your existence is sometimes a thorn in the eyes of others and a thorn in their flesh."
