497: Chapter 497 Family Portrait

In the secret chamber, only Lin Jingyun and Patriarch Lin Xinyuan remained.

Lin Jingyun found it hard to understand why her father would make such a choice.

When she arrived, she had actually already spoken to Patriarch Lin Xinyuan about the restaurant and even suggested that it might have been Lin Yuanming's doing.

However, she hadn't expected that her father, instead of punishing Lin Yuanming, actually intended to make him the Clan Chief of the Family.

This made Lin Jingyun feel very aggrieved.

"What, are you feeling unbalanced?" Patriarch Lin Xinyuan asked with a smile.

"Father, I just don't understand. Favoring Lin Yuanming like this will only make him more unscrupulous."

It wasn't just that Lin Jingyun felt unbalanced.

She was actually getting angry inside. Logically, because of Ye Mo, she should be the one closest to her father.

"You, you need to broaden your perspective. Since I returned half a year ago, I've heard that you have poured all your energy into the restaurant business. You are simply putting the cart before the horse. Do you know what your greatest asset is?"

Without waiting for his daughter to answer, Patriarch Lin Xinyuan immediately said, "It is Ye Mo. As long as you stay by Ye Mo's side and ensure you have a place in his heart, you will have everything in the future."

"Uh... Ye Mo said, no palace intrigue is allowed... And isn't there a saying that distance makes the heart grow fonder?" Lin Jingyun asked in astonishment.

During this period, she indeed rarely saw Ye Mo, but she didn't feel like it was a problem.

"Distance makes the heart grow fonder? That only applies in a one-on-one situation. Does Ye Mo lack women around him? If you go another few years without seeing him, he might even forget about you. Think about it, why are those Immortal Emperors around Ye Mo willing to stay in the Small World? It is simply because they want to spend more time with Ye Mo."

Patriarch Lin Xinyuan felt somewhat helpless; his daughter was too naive when it came to emotions.

Now that Ye Mo is not yet powerful, it is the best time to spend more time with him. When he is surrounded by a group of female Immortal Venerables in the future, you won't even have the qualifications to interject.

"That won't happen. Ye Mo is not that kind of person. Haven't you seen that there are many women around Ye Mo who aren't even True Immortals? Ye Mo takes the initiative to visit them whenever he has time," Lin Jingyun said.

The women she mentioned were Lu Baijun and the others.

In the Small World, Ye Mo lived with them.

For so many years, the number of women around Ye Mo had increased, but from beginning to end, Ye Mo always felt most relaxed when staying with Lu Baijun and the others, and he always felt like they had endless things to talk about.

Bickering and joking with them every day added a lot of joy to life.

"That just goes to show that their status in Ye Mo's heart is unusual. Ye Mo is also very sentimental, so you need to build a better relationship with him even more," Patriarch Lin Xinyuan said.

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you. I'll go see Ye Mo more often in the future," Lin Jingyun said, feeling somewhat speechless.

How did her father become like an old woman, starting to nag?

"Hmm, but recently you need to have more contact with Junior Sister Tian Yue and her group. During this time, they will help us repair the Star Protection Array, and you must accompany them throughout the process."

Patriarch Lin Xinyuan explained the situation regarding Junior Sister Tian Yue to Lin Jingyun in detail.

Upon learning that Junior Sister Tian Yue was a Saint Purple Spirit Root, Lin Jingyun felt somewhat uneasy. She rolled her eyes at her father and said, "I understand. I will take them to inspect the Formation tomorrow."

"Hmm, remember to call Ye Mo as well, to get some contact early on," Patriarch Lin Xinyuan said.

"Got it..."

Lin Jingyun nodded, then left the secret chamber. She couldn't help but mutter, "This is the first time I've seen a father-in-law helping his son-in-law find women..."

In the inner courtyard of the Lin Family, in the courtyard of Lin Yuanming's mother.

Knowing that his father was going to pass the position of Clan Chief to him, Lin Yuanming immediately told his mother the good news.

Upon hearing this news, Zhuang Man'an was naturally pleasantly surprised.

"Yuanming, your father trusts you so much; you must not let your father's high expectations go to waste," Zhuang Man'an said with a smile.

"I know, Mother. I definitely won't let Father down," Lin Yuanming said confidently.

"Hmm, Mother believes in you."

Zhuang Man'an nodded and then continued, "I heard that this time your father went to the Sifang Sect and invited Disciples from the Sifang Sect to repair the Star Protection Array. Junior Sister Tian Yue has also come. When you check the Formation tomorrow, you should go too and interact with them more."

"Junior Sister Tian Yue? You mean Uncle's Disciple, Junior Sister Tian Yue, that Saint Purple Spirit Root?"

Hearing the name Junior Sister Tian Yue, Lin Yuanming's eyes flashed.

He had naturally heard of Junior Sister Tian Yue, but had never seen her.

He only knew that Junior Sister Tian Yue was younger than him, but her cultivation had already reached the Late Stage of the Immortal Emperor realm.

"That's right. Remember, when you see them tomorrow, do not speak carelessly," Zhuang Man'an warned.

"Hmm." Lin Yuanming nodded immediately.

Inside the Small World.

Ye Mo was eating melon seeds in the courtyard with Lu Baijun and the others.

They were chatting and laughing.

Lu Baijun was heavily pregnant, and Lin Shishuang, Cheng Ying, Zhou Ruolin, and others were gathered around her, discussing when the baby would be born.

After arriving at the Lin Family, Ye Mo had discussed having a child with Lu Baijun.

Ye Mo hadn't let Lu Baijun get pregnant for a long time, mainly because he wanted to see if he could find something to improve her Spiritual Root.

At that time, Ye Mo had even asked Patriarch Lin Xinyuan, but Patriarch Lin Xinyuan said there was no such thing, so Ye Mo gave up on that idea.

"It's rare for Ye Mo to be gathered with us recently. How about we all record an image together?" Lin Shishuang suddenly suggested.

As soon as she said this, everyone became interested.

"Then I'll go call Jing Tian and the others over. Let's take a Family photo!" Cheng Ying said immediately.

After Cheng Ying finished speaking, Lin Shishuang and the others stood up one after another to call their respective children over.

Actually, they hadn't had many children for Ye Mo, just over a dozen each.

However, Jing Tian and the others were also married and had children, so there were quite a few descendants.

In the end, only three generations of the Family were called over.

Lu Baijun and the others were very creative; they finally conjured up an illusory Yongcheng, using Tianhe Apartment as the background.

Everyone stood downstairs at the apartment building, and then used an image stone to record the scene.

Everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles.

Ye Mo and Lu Baijun stood in the middle.

Ye Mo suddenly held up two fingers and shouted loudly, "Cheese!"

Everyone immediately made the same gesture.

And the scene was frozen at this moment.

Ye Mo put the image stone away and gave it to Lu Baijun for safekeeping.

Lin Jingyun, who had just arrived in the Small World, happened to see this scene.

She was very shocked.

It wasn't until Ye Mo's children had left one after another that she walked into the courtyard.

"Husband, what were you doing just now?" Lin Jingyun couldn't help but ask.

"Recording a Family photo. Why, is something the matter?" Ye Mo asked.

"Oh, Father said that tomorrow he wants me to accompany you to assist Junior Sister Tian Yue in inspecting the Star Protection Array. It counts as getting some early contact with Junior Sister Tian Yue," Lin Jingyun replied.

"Hmm, alright... You came at the right time. Ren Shasha and the others are cooking. Eat with us tonight and let you taste the flavor of my hometown..."
