Lightning Swordsman

The Palace 2

Next day.

the palace courtyard had been neatly lined up with tables and chairs, and the invited guests had also started to arrive one after another, noble families and Patriarchs from the large sects and middle sects had also arrived, as well, they were all perplexed by this invitation of the Jian emperor, because it was not written clearly the intent of the Jian emperor inviting them.

"does the Patriarch know the reason why his Majesty invited us?" ask one of the Patriarchs.

"i also don't know the reason that the noble invites us, but like him there are important things that the noble wants to talk about" replied the other.

"already, we should just wait for what your majesty will say" said another.

meanwhile the Jian emperors, Lin Chen, Lin Tian, Lin Bai, Lin Yue and Yin Mei Lin had not come out yet, so they were getting more and more curious.

a while later, there was another entourage that had already reached the palace grounds, and it was also seen Yin Jieru and his wife Qiao Yi, they were the father and stepmother of Yin Mei Lin.

while waiting for the Jian emperor to come out of the palace, the Patriarchs of nobles, sects and clans who had already been in the courtyard conversed.

before long the Jian emperor and princess Huanran came out of the palace, and from behind was followed by Lin Tian, Lin Bai, Lin Chen, Lin Yue and Yin Mei Lin.

Yin Jieru and Qiao Yi who saw Yin Mei Lin coming out from inside the palace could not help but be surprised, because all this time they had been continuously searching for the whereabouts of their child, but who would have thought, that was, Yin Mei Lin was in the palace, that was what they thought at the moment.

"Honor your majesty" they said in unison while prostrating one knee on the floor.

"wake up, my respect is with you" said the Jian emperor, waving his hand.

after sitting down, the Jian emperor introduced Lin Chen and his entourage, not to forget also the Jian emperor told him all about Lin Chen and the troops that slaughtered the enemy in the battlefield the other day, at the end of the day, they all knew that the troops in the war that they saw were disciples of the lightning mountain sect.

meanwhile Yin Jieru was surprised to hear what the Jian emperor said, he did not think if all this time his daughter had followed 2 wars, and that was it, only that, even his cultivation had also been far above his, because currently, Yin Jieru's cultivation was in the 8-star king realm, while his son Yin Mei Lin was in the middle stage earth god shutter.

the Patriarchs present at the event that day were all acquainted with Lin Chen and wanted to establish a relationship with Lin Chen, because if it was forging a relationship with Lin Chen, naturally they would benefit to the sect, he said, and their clan, especially the nobles, there were also those who planned to match their daughter with Lin Chen.

"Patriak, in a month I invite you all to attend the inauguration ceremony of the sect I founded, and I hope you take the time to attend" said Lin Chen who invited the Patriarchs present.

"it's an honor for us to be present at the inauguration ceremony that the Patriarch established" said someone among them.

"really, we also look forward to attending our Empire hero event" said another enthusiastically.

meanwhile.

Yin Jieru felt awkward to greet Yin Mei Lin, yet she ventured to walk towards Yin Mei Lin and hugged her, the moment she confused Lin Chen, but he could already analyze if the middle-aged man who hugged his lover was the father of Yin Mei Lin.

"excuse me Lin'er's father, I've done you wrong, I know you're wrong, but please forgive me son's father" said Yin Jieru who felt sad and guilty for forcing Yin Mei Lin to marry the young noble master Bing or commonly called Bing Shao.

meanwhile, the noble Patriarch Bing who saw Yin Mei Lin who came out with Lin Chen and was now sitting next to Lin Chen left was just silent, as he did not want to offend Lin Chen.

suddenly arrived the noble Patriarch Bing or Bing Tianqi stood up and spoke.

"before his uncle apologized to Lin'er, if only from the beginning uncle knew you didn't like shao'er, uncle wouldn't have forced you to marry him, if only from the beginning uncle knew you didn't like shao'er, now uncle already knows if you don't like him and you also already have the person you love, so we cancel the matchmaking" said Bing Tianqi.

hearing that Yin Mei Lin was very happy, because that way, she could return to her house without fear of becoming the gossip material of the people in the green leaf city.

"thank you uncle for understanding, and right uncle, I already have Chen Gege" Yin Mei Lin said with a reddened look like a boiled crab.

As for the daughter of Huanran who heard that, she looked her sad and her eyes glazed with glass, the Jian emperor who saw the change in her son's face just shook his head.

after the luncheon ended, the invited guests left the palace grounds, but not Yin Jieru and Qiao Yi.

"all this time you've been where Lin'er has been? you're worried about you, son?" ask Yin Jieru.

"mother also misses you dearly" said Qiao Yi, who is her stepmother, even though she is only a stepmother, but Qiao Yi loves Yin Mei Lin very much.

and because of Qiao Yi's extremely affectionate treatment, Yin Mei Lin was also extremely spoiled towards Qiao Yi.

"pardon me father, mother" said Yin Mei Lin who hugged Qiao Yi.

"let's tell me where you've been all this time! because I've sent people to look for you but not find you" said Yin Jieru.

Yin Mei Lin also told her wherever she went, starting from in the forbidden forest, meeting with Lin Chen, following Lin Chen to the Lin clan, building the lightning mountain sect with Lin Chen, meeting Lin Chen, and fought 2 wars with Lin Chen.

"where are you in the shutter now?" yin Jieru asked who was curious about her child's cultivation.

"i am currently in the father's middle stage earth god realm shutter" Yin Mei Lin replied.

deg....

yin Jieru replied with a thump and his mouth gaped after knowing his child's cultivation base.

"this is all because of the help of Chen Gege's father" said Yin Mei Lin who continued the story.

Lin Chen who saw Yin Mei Lin was chatting with Yin Jieru and Qiao Yi also approached them.

"greetings uncle, greetings aunt" said Lin Chen saluting his future in-laws.

"thank you, Patriarch, for keeping Lin'er safe all this time" Yin Jieru said.

"it's not as formal as uncle, because in any case soon we will become family" said Lin Chen with his beautiful smile.

as for Yin Mei Lin who heard that bowed embarrassedly with her face that was already flushed like a boiled crab.

"Haha...

"uncle until you forget that you are the future uncle's son-in-law" said Yin Jieru who is no longer formal.

"since uncle is already here, what if uncle and aunt come with us to the sect tomorrow?" asked Lin Chen.

"alright, tomorrow uncle and aunt come with you to the sect" Yin Jieru replied.

"we should continue our conversation inside only young master Lin" said the Jian emperor who had been waiting for Lin Chen and Yin Mei Lin.

"good noble" Lin Chen replied then inviting Yin Jieru and Qiao Yi to enter the palace.

when they arrived, the Jian emperor ordered the servants to prepare rooms for Yin Jieru and Qiao Yi.

arriving at the Jian emperor's private room, they continued their chat until the night with a laugh, while Huanran's daughter continued to steal glances at Lin Chen and seemed reluctant to take her eyes off Lin Chen.
