Several figures flew out of the yard.
A slightly plump woman came up to Chen Ling'er and said with a worried look on her face, "Ling'er, where have you been for so long? You made me so worried!"
After saying that, he pulled Chen Ling'er to check on her, and immediately said, "Look at you, you've lost weight. You must have suffered a lot. You must not be so naughty anymore."
Chen Linger smiled and let herself be manipulated, then said coquettishly: "Aiya, Auntie, I'm not naughty, I'm going to do serious work."
As soon as she finished speaking, another woman in colorful clothes flew over, pointed at her nose and yelled, "Chen Ling'er, you are so brave. You have been on the run for more than a month. No one can intercede for you this time. I must lock you up and make you sober!"
Chen Ling'er, who had just looked so happy, shrank her neck when she heard the voice, then got into the arms of the plump woman and said in a tender voice, "Auntie, my mother is yelling at me."
"It's okay." The plump woman smiled indulgently and said, "I will plead for you, but you really must not be naughty anymore. Tell me where you have been during this period of time."
"Sister Lingyu, we can't spoil her anymore. She does nothing but cause trouble all day long. This time, maybe she used Lu Bao's ability to sneak out of the secret realm! Elder Yuan has already asked me to keep an eye on Lu Bao to prevent him from destroying the stability of the secret realm. If we bring in powerful monsters from outside, we will be the sinners of the entire secret realm, and the Council of Elders will not tolerate us!"
The woman in colorful clothes had a face full of anger and glared at Chen Ling'er hatefully.
But Chen Ling'er turned around and flew to the back, then she pulled a man's arm and raised her chin and said, "I didn't do my job, nor did I attract a monster. Instead, I attracted a man that some people think about day and night."
The air suddenly became quiet.
The woman in colorful clothes and the plump woman seemed to be under a spell, frozen in place, unable to move, with excitement, anticipation, and disbelief in their eyes.
Seems to be afraid that this is just an illusion.
"I am sorry to have caused you to worry as I am an incompetent husband."
Chen Lin had a complicated expression on his face as he looked at the two women and slowly walked over.
"Husband!"
"Husband!"
The two women finally realized that this was not an illusion but reality, and they slowly walked forward with excitement.
There were no violent actions, nor excessive emotions released; everything was said without words when their eyes met.
Chen Qingying at the back also had an excited look on her face, but she knew what to do and didn't move forward. She just quietly watched the scene in front of her.
Besides her, there were two young girls next to her, who looked surprised and curious.
In the room.
"Husband, I didn't expect the outside world to have become like this. You have really suffered a lot over the years."
The whole family gathered together and talked to each other about their experiences over the years.
Qin Lingyu and the others had nothing much to say. They just lived a monotonous life in this secret realm day after day. Although there were some minor frictions with others, they were not a big deal.
Most of the time, he was listening to Chen Lin talking about the situation outside and asking from time to time.
Chen Lin smiled and said, "It's nothing. I was a little anxious when I couldn't find you at first, but I felt relieved when I got the exact information. But I didn't expect that I would have such a big daughter all of a sudden. It really surprised me."
After saying that, he looked at Qin Lingyu and Sun Caiyi carefully. Both girls had matured a lot, and their cultivation had reached the great perfection of the foundation-building stage. They could now try to break through to the golden elixir stage.
On the contrary, Chen Qingying, the oldest one, has only reached the late stage of foundation building and is lagging behind the other two.
This is the difference in qualifications.
To be honest, among the three, Sun Caiyi has the shortest time practicing, and she also had to go through the process of giving birth, which must have had a certain impact on her practice. However, her cultivation level has not fallen behind. If she had not given birth to a child, she would probably have been a Jindan cultivator now.
Chen Ling'er inherited her talents from the other party, and even inherited the body of an earth spirit. However, they had been together for too short a time, and she hadn't had time to ask if she had any other talents.
Unfortunately, his ten sure hits were a spiritual talent gained from traveling through time and space, and had nothing to do with bloodline, so he probably couldn't inherit it.
Just as he was thinking about it, a young girl suddenly walked in and said respectfully, "Master, Elder Yuan is here, along with several other elders."
"Okay, got it."
Qin Lingyu nodded, then looked at Chen Lin.
This girl was her apprentice. After Sun Caiyi gave birth to Chen Ling'er, she and Chen Qingying had no close friends around them, so they each accepted a female apprentice.
Chen Lin stood up after hearing this and said, "Let's go. The sudden appearance of a Jindan cultivator like me from outside has probably caused quite a stir. We need to meet and explain."
This situation was already expected by everyone, so they all stood up and followed Chen Lin to the lobby.
"Haha, it really is Elder Chen. I heard that someone saw Ling'er's niece appear with a Jindan Zhenren, so I guessed it might be you, Elder Chen!"
Seeing Chen Lin appear, a burly man in a gray robe sitting in the lobby stood up and spoke with a smile with surprise in his eyes.
Chen Lin also smiled and said, "It turns out to be Brother Yuan. I heard from my two wives that Brother Yuan has taken good care of them over the years. I am honored to be here!"
After saying this, he bowed deeply.
The burly man hurriedly lifted Chen Lin up and waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I don't deserve such a great gift from Elder Chen. I am also from Silver Fairy City, and it is my duty to take care of Madam Qin and the others."
Chen Lin did not perform any more empty formalities. There was still a lot of time, and he could repay the favor slowly.
The other party was called Yuan Zhenhai. He joined the Silver Immortal City later and was a relatively marginalized existence among the Jindan cultivators in the Silver Immortal City. Even he, the person in charge of the Immortal City, had only come into contact with him twice during office work, and he had no sense of existence at all.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, he borrowed the other party's strength, and he felt that this person definitely concealed his strength at the beginning and was a low-key person.
After the two of them exchanged greetings, the other three Jindan cultivators also came over to say hello.
After sitting down again, a thin young man spoke solemnly, "Elder Chen, may I ask how you got in from outside, what the situation is outside, and whether Dawn City can be defended?"
Speaking of this issue, everyone looked solemn.
They all left Dawn City through special channels after being trapped. After entering the secret realm, they were isolated from the world. They have been worried about the situation in Dawn City for so many years. After all, only a few monks were transferred, and they still had relatives and friends left in the city.
Chen Lin shook his head. Even though the truth was cruel, he did not hide it.
He spoke slowly and narrated the tragic scene when Dawn City was destroyed, the self-detonations of many powerful men, the subsequent changes in Ten Thousand Souls Ridge, and the separation of the northern and southern immortal cultivation worlds.
The atmosphere in the lobby suddenly became heavy, and sadness appeared on everyone's face.
Although it was expected, it was still hard to bear when I actually got the exact news.
"As for how I got in." After waiting for a while, Chen Lin's voice sounded again, saying, "It was the rooster spirit pet I got that year. It awakened its spatial innate ability, so it was instigated by my naughty daughter to leave the secret realm. It met me by chance, and I came in with them."
Before anyone could ask, he immediately explained, "But I've always been careful in what I do, so I won't be followed or discovered by anyone. I've also decided not to let my pet use its spatial ability to leave without permission before the secret realm is opened, so as not to bring trouble here."
After saying that, he glanced at the thin young man.
After a brief exchange with Qin Lingyu and the others, I already know that although this secret realm currently implements the Elders Council system, the one who truly has the final say is this person.
This man is called Xun Ji. Although he looks like a young man, he has actually reached the great perfection of the Golden Core realm. He is the closed disciple of Master Xuan Guang. His talent and means are extraordinary. If it were not for the restrictions of the rules of this world, he would have already reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Xun Ji was still shocked by the information Chen Lin said. After a long while, he took a deep breath and said in a dry voice, "Elder Chen, did my master Xuan Guang Zhenjun really perish together with those monsters?"
Chen Lin knew the other party would ask, and said solemnly: "This point has been confirmed. I hope Brother Xun will accept my condolences. It is because of the fearless actions of Senior Xuan Guang and others that the cultivators now have a chance to breathe, so we must live well and live up to the wishes of many predecessors and sacrifices."
Xun Ji nodded, with a sad tone, and said: "Don't worry, Elder Chen, I won't be affected by my state of mind. But after I prepare myself, I may need to trouble your pet to send me out of the secret realm."
"Okay, Brother Xun, just let me know when you need me."
He knew that after this stimulation, the other party wanted to go out and break through to the Nascent Soul stage, so he naturally agreed.
At this time, Yuan Zhenhai suddenly said, "Elder Chen, I wonder what the current situation of the Lord of Silver City is like?"
The other party was from Silver Immortal City, so it was normal for him to ask this question. Chen Lin did not hide it and said, "When the city was besieged, I was sent out to carry out a mission. Later, I heard that my master and several other seniors with long life spans and potential were sent out in advance, but I have not been able to contact them. I have been trying to find out what happened, but have not gotten any results."
Everyone's heart sank again.
There were fewer Yuanying True Lords in the past, and even fewer after the great changes. No matter where they appear, they cannot remain unknown. If we cannot find any news about them, the situation is probably not very good.
Chen Lin understood this truth, but he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart, and said, "It is also possible that he went to the southern cultivation world. Now we are completely cut off from the south, and no information can be transmitted to us."
This statement is possible. Others nodded and could only hope for it.
After communicating for a while, the four Jindan cultivators left together, claiming that they would not disturb Chen Lin's reunion and would visit again another day.
