Lin Xiao immediately asked Wang Wenchang to help arrange a meeting. He smiled and said:
"Why do you need my help to make an appointment? Just apply yourself. When Master Jin Yuntian is free after his work, he will meet you."
"But if you are in a hurry to meet, you'd better explain the reason for the meeting. Otherwise, His Excellency Jin Yuntian is very busy dealing with fortress affairs and may not be able to spare the time for a month."
"I see."
Lin Xiao found the secretariat that specialized in handling such matters and filled out an application form. In the column for the reason for application, he thought about it and, in addition to the name of meeting an alumnus, he filled in Jin Sisi's boyfriend.
Three days later, Jin Yuntian was handling official business as usual in the morning.
As the second-in-command of Gaia Pyramid, because the leader Jin Nantian is often away, most of the affairs of the faction are actually handled and commanded by Jin Yuntian, so he is very busy.
Even with the help of the secretariat, a large force has a lot of things to do. Even if we only pick out some relatively important ones, the total number is still quite a lot. Especially since he was away for a long period of time, the accumulation of things kept him busy for a whole week and he still couldn't finish them.
After moistening his throat with a cup of tea grown from plants unique to this world, he picked up another document to look at it.
After a few minutes he picked up the pen, made some comments and placed them on the other side of the table, then picked up another document.
Unconsciously, a whole morning passed. He finished reading the document in his hand and stretched himself to continue. Suddenly, he picked up a small stack of documents in the other corner of the table. All the documents here were related to the Adventers and were usually kept in a separate copy.
Although the majority of the subordinates of the Gaia Pyramid are natives of this world, their core base still comes from the Sons of God's Realm from the same world. The upper echelons generally give priority to handling the appeals of the Sons of God's Realm.
Of course, the things about the Son of God that have accumulated during this period of time must be more than just this small stack of documents, but most of the simple problems can be solved without going through him, and the ones in front of him now must be reviewed by him personally.
Picking up the first document and checking the signature of Lin Xiao, Jin Yuntian recalled and confirmed that he did not recognize him.
However, his identity as a special recruit from Huiyao Super Academy made him look at him sideways. To him, the elites of Huiyao Super Academy were just so-so. But if he was a special recruit, it meant that he must be the elite among the elites, and most likely a player on the Tianjiao List. It was still worth his attention.
After opening the application documents, it was as expected that he wanted to meet me. This was normal. Most of the Sons of God who came to the wizard world, after recovering their memories, would want to meet me in order to build a good relationship if they had a certain status in the main world. This person named Lin Xiao also came from Huiyao, so it was normal for him to want to meet me.
Jin Yuntian had already agreed in his heart and picked up the pen to make a mark in the opinion column.
When his eyes swept across the column of reasons for application, a familiar name came into his sight. He quickly stopped and the name of his niece Jin Sisi, whom he had not seen for a long time, appeared in his mind.
"The young man actually recognized his eldest niece?"
However, when his eyes naturally scanned the entire paragraph, Jin Yuntian's pupils widened and he was stunned. After a while, he slammed the table and shouted:
"Someone come!"
The secretary pushed the door open with a click and saw the slightly agitated Jin Yuntian and the document he was holding out.
"Make arrangements. I want to meet him immediately."
The secretary took the document, looked at it, and nodded:
"I'll arrange it immediately."
Half an hour later, Lin Xiao appeared in a room made entirely of marble.
The room was spotlessly clean. There was no extra items except a blanket on the floor, a small coffee table in the middle of the blanket, and several luminous pearls emitting soft light hanging above the head.
As the secretary who brought him here said, he sat quietly in front of the coffee table, closed his eyes and waited.
After almost two minutes, Lin Xiao suddenly felt distracted. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and saw a handsome middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the other side of the coffee table in front of him, looking at him with interest.
He clasped his hands together and saluted, saying,
"Hui Yao Lin Xiao greets you, Senior!"
The middle-aged man waved his hand, took out his application document and threw it on the coffee table, and asked:
"Young man, you said you are Jin Sisi's boyfriend? Which Jin Sisi?"
Lin Xiao's mind moved, and he already had an idea in his mind, and said seriously:
"Of course it is Jin Sisi, who is also from Huiyao, the ***541st class of the university department."
Jin Yuntian's mouth twitched, and he asked again:
"Do you know her father's name?"
"Jin Shengtian!"
The quiet room was extremely quiet. Jin Yuntian did not speak, but looked him up and down carefully. After a while, he asked,
"Do you know my name?"
Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, but he still answered honestly:
"Jin Yuntian!"
"The owner of this Gaia Pyramid is called Jin Nantian, my eldest brother, but his real name is also Jin Shengtian!"
Jin Yuntian looked at Lin Xiao seriously.
"It's my father-in-law indeed!"
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, bowed again, and said seriously:
"Lin Xiao, meet your uncle!"
His address was beyond Jin Yuntian's expectation. He glared and stretched out his hand and said:
"Don't call me that yet. Who knows if what you said is true or not? Don't claim any relatives before you are sure."
Lin Xiao said seriously:
"Of course this is true, and the whole school knows it."
"That's hard to say. You're several dozen years behind her, so normally you wouldn't have any contact with her."
"She used to teach at Huiyao Middle School No. 2, and I was her student!"
Jin Yuntian's eyes suddenly widened, showing great surprise, and then revealed an extremely strange expression, and after a while he blurted out:
"Good boy, if you have the guts, I will beat you to death when my elder brother comes back."
"But then again, if you put it that way, I kind of believe that what you said is true."
Jin Yuntian's expression was a little calmer at this time. He asked while making tea,
"Let's not talk about this for now. When my eldest brother comes back, you can talk to him. Let's talk about the main world first. Since you said you are my niece's boyfriend, then tell me how my Jin family is doing now?"
Lin Xiao recalled the information he knew, organized his words and said:
"The Jin family is not doing well. Ever since my uncle entered the wizarding world, the family has been going from bad to worse. A large number of the family's planes have been taken away by hostile families. Now only the plane where they started out is left. Both their strength and influence are far less than before. In addition, I heard that some time ago..."
Jin Yuntian listened quietly. Lin Xiao looked up at him halfway through his speech. There was no expression on his face, as if what he was talking about had nothing to do with him.
After a long while, he finished telling what he knew. Jin Yuntian sighed and said:
"We had anticipated this situation long before my eldest brother and I ventured into the wizarding world. In their minds, the situation might be worse. Now that our family can still retain the plane where it started, it is better than we thought."
Lin Xiao also thinks so.
A temporary downfall is nothing. The core of the Jin family is still there. As long as Jin Shengtian is confirmed to be alive, the Jin family will not fall completely. There will always be a day when they will come out on top.
In fact, as long as the two brothers return now, the Jin family will immediately get back everything they had.
But the two brothers thought of more. Jin Shengtian was already a super god with the nineteenth level of godhood in the main world, second only to the top boss with great god power. There was basically no way forward in the main world, so he took the risk to come to the wizard world. It can be predicted that he would definitely not go back before becoming the ancestor.
The wizarding world can't stop him.
Yes, ever since Lin Xiao condensed his second true body and his strength reached the late eighth level, Lin Xiao knew that the saying circulating in the main world that only great divine power can be separated from the main world is not true.
Any descender who reaches the peak of the eighth level can forcibly return to the main world on his own. Even if he is in the late eighth level, if he has a backup plan before descending, he can still forcibly return.
With Lin Xiao's current strength, after a period of time, he can gain more power from the mark of the ancestor of the dream, and he will be able to rely on his own strength to forcibly escape from the wizard world and return.
Jin Yuntian sighed for a while and then regained his composure. He said to Lin Xiao,
"It's rare to meet a newcomer who has just arrived. I have a lot of things I want to know from you. Don't run around before my brother comes back. I have raised your sequence. I will let my secretary notify you if there is anything in the future."
Lin Xiao rubbed his forehead and said:
"I'm a little sorry. I plan to take some time to observe various parts of the world and take revenge on some enemies. I won't stay in Gaia Pyramid forever."
"Um?"
Jin Yuntian frowned and said unhappily,
"Why are you so anxious to take revenge? This world is very dangerous. The Eldar are much stronger than us. If we meet them outside, there will definitely be a big fight. You are only a level 5 wizard now. If you run outside, you will be... Um, you..."
Jin Yuntian suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Xiao with a look of doubt. The next second, he suddenly jumped back, and a layer of transparent barrier appeared on his body. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and grabbed. An extremely powerful force descended and turned into a cage to isolate the stone room. He said in a deep voice:
"What is your strength?"
Lin Xiao sighed, and his aura, which was only at the fifth level before, rose steadily like a volcanic eruption, and soon surpassed the seventh level and entered the eighth level. Jin Yuntian's eyes also kept changing accordingly.
From solemnity to surprise, and then to even more surprise, until he couldn't help but gasp.
"Eighth level late stage!"
At this moment, he looked at Lin Xiao as if he were a monster and asked,
"Are you sure what you just said is true?"
He twisted his neck slightly, feeling more secure with the powerful force in his body. He smiled, spread his hands, and said:
"It's true. I am indeed a junior student at Huiyao University and Jin Sisi's boyfriend. But I am also the commander of the Giant God Regiment in the Yanhuang Fifth War Zone, with the rank of elite major general!"
But Jin Yuntian still didn't look very convinced, with an expression that said "you're just kidding me" on his face.
It's not his fault that he didn't believe it, but considering his age and his strength, it was indeed too exaggerated. In the more than 300,000 years of the main world, not to mention that he had never seen anyone with strength comparable to that of a god before graduating from college, let alone someone who was not even close to him, no one would believe it.
