Chapter 11: The Lin Family From Qingyang Town

The next morning, just as dawn was breaking and the city of Lincheng was coming to life, in the front courtyard of the Lin family, Lin Ke'er and others were already prepared early in the morning.

So when Lin Langtian arrived, the five of them were ready and waiting for his command to set off.

"Big Brother Langtian, you're here. We're all ready, just waiting for your signal to depart," Lin Ke'er said with a smile, her azure eyes shining brightly as she looked at the handsome young man approaching.

Beside her, Lin Chen and the other three were also eagerly awaiting Lin Langtian's arrival. The destination of this journey was the imperial capital, the capital of the Great Yan Empire. Even though they were members of the Lin family, they couldn't help but feel excited about the prospect.

"Hehe, since you're all ready, let's set off directly," Lin Langtian sighed inwardly at the sight of the five eager companions but smiled lightly on the surface.

"Alright, Big Brother Langtian, this is the Black Scale Horse prepared for us by the family. With it, I believe we'll arrive in the imperial capital in no more than ten days," Lin Chen handed over a remarkable steed covered in black scales to Lin Langtian.

Taking the reins of the Black Scale Horse, Lin Langtian patted its head, and sensing the strong aura of its master, the once unruly steed unexpectedly became docile.

The Black Scale Horse was specially bred by the Lin family, with its body covered in black scales resembling those of a fish. It could travel thousands of miles in a day, making it an excellent means of transportation for long journeys.

However, now that he was a cultivator in the Creation Realm, he could materialize his energy. If he transformed his energy into a giant eagle, he could even fly. However, this method was too energy-consuming, and with the presence of Lin Ke'er and the other four young members of the family, the Black Scale Horse was indeed a good mode of transportation.

"Now that everything is ready, let's depart." Lin Langtian leaped onto the Black Scale Horse and flicked the reins, urging the horse to gallop towards the outskirts of Lincheng.

"Yes." Lin Chen and the others nodded, then mounted their own Black Scale Horses and quickly followed Lin Langtian.

...

The Imperial City, the most prestigious city of the Great Yan Dynasty, not to mention the elusive super sects, the royal family, is undoubtedly the known ruler of the Great Yan Empire.

And the Imperial City, naturally, was the most magnificent presence in this empire!

Located to the east of the Great Yan County, opposite Lincheng, although Lincheng boasted a comparable scale to the Imperial City, it was still inferior in some aspects.

After all, regardless of anything else, the Lin family, as one of the four major families of the Great Yan Empire, still maintained some taboos towards the royal family. Only intelligent families could truly inherit their legacy.

However, whether it was the royal family or the Lin family, or the other three major families and the influential sects in the Great Yan Empire, they all held great goodwill towards Ling Qingzhu, who was about to arrive.

Because they knew that in the vast Eastern Profound Domain, countries like the Great Yan Empire were as numerous as the clouds, and only those super sects were the true masters.

And Ling Qingzhu, as a disciple of a super sect, was like a noble princess visiting the countryside, unattainable and highly regarded.

Although the distance between Lincheng and the Imperial City was not far, and it would take only two or three days at a normal pace to arrive, a group of young people together could not possibly endure a boring journey.

Therefore, after enjoying the scenery along the way, when Lin Langtian and his group finally arrived at the Imperial City, it had been over half a month.

Fortunately, the welcome ceremony prepared by the royal family for Ling Qingzhu was scheduled for a month later; otherwise, they would have been late.

The massive Imperial City stood quietly on the plain, exuding a daunting aura like a beast from ancient times in the evening light.

The city walls were towering and stretched to the edge of sight, still unseen, indicating the terrifying size of the Imperial City.

When Lin Langtian and his group rode their Black Scale Horses to a point not far from the Imperial City, they dismounted and walked towards it, as riding horses within the Imperial City was strictly forbidden by the royal family's decree. Even though Lin Langtian and his companions were members of the Lin family, they could not openly defy this rule.

Otherwise, it would be considered a provocation to the royal family.

Although they were still some distance from the Imperial City, the roads were bustling with people, making this place extremely lively, comparable to Lincheng, if not even more so.

"It truly deserves to be the imperial capital, so bustling," Lin Ke'er and the others exclaimed as they looked at the magnificent city.

"Hehe, no matter what, this is the direct territory of the royal family, so naturally, it must display the royal family's grandeur," Lin Langtian said with a slight smile as he looked around.

With that said, Lin Langtian began to walk towards the Imperial City at a leisurely pace, and Lin Ke'er and the others followed closely behind.

At the city gate, although it was exceptionally spacious, it was still crowded due to the massive flow of people.

However, when Lin Chen presented a golden token engraved with the character "Lin," the guard's expression changed, and he quickly let them pass with a respectful demeanor.

The Lin family, as one of the four major families of the Great Yan Empire, commanded respect even from the royal family.

In just a short moment, Lin Langtian and his group entered the vast city smoothly.

Magnificent and grand.

As they entered the city, Lin Langtian glanced around. When he saw the countless buildings stretching into the distance, he raised an eyebrow slightly, realizing that this massive city was like a small kingdom in itself.

This fully demonstrated the power of the royal family.

Standing on the bustling street, Lin Langtian didn't marvel for long before blending into the crowd.

In the Imperial City, the Lin family naturally had its own place to stay. After all, as one of the four major families, they had their own background.

After passing through several streets, Lin Langtian gestured towards the giant letters "Lin Mansion" above the entrance, indicating for Lin Chen to knock on the door.

Soon, a middle-aged man in a yellow robe came out, his face showing some annoyance at being disturbed. However, when he saw Lin Langtian, he immediately put on a flattering smile.

"It turns out to be Elder Langtian. I received news several days ago that you would be visiting. I've finally waited for you," he said respectfully.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly. After days of travel, his first priority was to rest.

Next, he would inquire about Ling Qingzhu and the details of the royal auction...

Two flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.

As Lin Langtian arrived in the capital, thousands of miles away in the Tian Du County's Yan City, in the Qingyang Town at the Lin family residence.

At this moment, outside the main gate of the Lin family, an old man in gray robes looked at the bustling crowd of Lin family members coming and going, smiling lightly.

"Old friend, the good fortune of your Qingyang Town's Lin family is coming..."
