At the Qinglian Pool at Fangmu Mountain, Lin Shiming returned, accompanied by Lin Shijie as well as all the Qi Cultivation Ninth Level Elders, except for Lin Houyuan.
These were indeed the upper echelons of the Lin Family.
Lin Houyong and Lin Houshou, as newly advanced Qi Cultivation Ninth Level, held the positions of the Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder, respectively.
Lin Shiming, in front of a group of elders, respectfully greeted each of them.
Compared to his usual casual and carefree demeanor, Lin Houshou was far more restrained than before, giving a slight nod when Lin Shiming addressed him as Second Uncle.
The chessboard in the pavilion remained, the white pieces still on the brink of death without the turnaround he had anticipated.
The crisis still loomed; the Li Family from Purple Mansion posed a constant threat to the Lin Family!
