23 The matriarch Name Evelyn
Yohan and his grandpa were following these two guards to meet Matriarch Evelyn. Yohan was not having a good time as his grandfather had warned him not to make any kind of mistake in front of that lady.
They entered a massive hall inside the mansion. The hall was very beautiful and lavish. Yohan's jaw dropped after seeing the interior of that mansion, and he gulped a mouthful of saliva.
"What the hell, I've never seen anything like that in my whole life. What kind of a lavish life is that woman living? Even my Lin clan is nothing compared to this kind of beauty. Everything is expensive and unique," he thought to himself.
Seeing his open mouth, the old man chuckled. He could understand what Yohan was thinking. He petted Yohan's shoulder.
"Kid, that lady is not an ordinary person, she is a very respectable lady in the whole Phoenix Kingdom, and very powerful. No one wants to mess with her. Even the Phoenix Royal Family who rules over this northern region didn't dare to oppose her, so make sure to be respectful towards her," grandpa Su Wan explained to Yohan. Hearing those words, Yohan's facial expression changed.
"Grandpa…even the Phoenix Royal Family?" He was surprised after hearing those words. He knew that the Phoenix Kingdom ruled over the various clans and sects.
The Lin clan was also a major clan that served under the Phoenix Kingdom, but he didn't know that he would find someone here who had the power to oppose the royal family.
He now fully understood why his grandfather was giving those warnings to him. Yohan looked towards his grandpa and pondered:"What kind of background does my old man have that he knows some people like this lady, or moreover that she permits him to meet her?"
He thought about this to himself and understood why those guards were looking at these guys with eyes wide open.
After a few moments the guards halted their movement in front of the room and looked towards the old man Su Wan.
"Elder lord Matriarch is waiting inside the guest room."
Both of them bowed towards the old man Su Wan and left that place, leaving Yohan and the old man in front of the guest room.
The old man took a deep breath and sweat appeared on his face.
Seeing his grandpa like that, Yohan's heart nearly skipped a beat. He had thought that this old man was a furious personality but he was taking his time to enter the guest room. Nervousness could be seen on grandpa Su Wan's face.
"What the fuck, is that woman that kind of furious to make my grandpa to nervous like that? What is going on here? Or what the hell I am doing here, why did my grandpa bring me here? I am supposed to look for a gift for my mother but here I am." He cursed his grandpa inwardly.

Meanwhile, in the Lin clan, a lady could be seen standing beside a window and suddenly she heard a voice and tilted her head behind.
"Lady Alena. You are here." Diya became surprised to see lady Alena who was standing in front of her.
Seeing Diya's reaction, Lady Alena smiled and approached Diya.
"You are worried about Yohan, right? Waiting for him." Alena looked towards Diya's worried face as she understood what she was looking at outside the windows.
Diya nodded her head and bitterly smiled towards Alena.
"I am worried about him, it's been more than five hours since he left the clan." Diya looked towards Alena with a worried expression.
Alena chuckled and petted her head, and raised her hand. She touched Diya's cheek with her right hand.
"Don't worry about him, he is with his grandfather. No one would dare to harm him. If anyone tried to harm him they would be courting their deaths, and my child, you have to be a strong lady. He is a cultivator and the heir of the Lin clan. His path is not an easy one, and being his partner, you have to understand those things." Alena gently petted Diya's cheek and a bitter smile appeared on her face as she said those words.
She knew better than anyone that no matter what Yohan did, she still loved him, and she understood what it meant to be a mother who had only a single child.
She knew how Diya feels, but still, she wanted her to understand that she couldn't control him, being a woman she had to support her partner.
"I am sorry mother, I just -" Diya halted her tongue. She couldn't find the proper words to explain. Seeing this, Alena chuckled.
"Don't worry. I can understand. He saved your life and after that attack, you are worried about him, it's fine, sweetheart. Come with me. I'll show you the whole Lin clan." Alena smiled and petted Diya's head.

"Yohan, let's go." The old man looked towards Yohan and the next moment he took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
