（Chapter 25）Your Grandpa Is a Powerful Man!

"Boom!"

Lin Chen was astounded by the girl's revelation.

Did his grandfather teach her? But when did he learn spiritual patterns?

"Could you be mistaken?" Lin Chen asked, his pupils constricting. "Perhaps you just share the same name as my grandfather. After all, the world is vast, and there's more than one person named Lin Tianming."

"Mistake?" The girl's lips curled into a smirk. "If you believe there are two Lin Tianmings in the Lin family of Yuncheng, then sure, I'll admit my mistake."

Lin Chen was speechless.

"I enjoy seeing you tongue-tied. It's refreshing," Tuntun cheered. "Beauty, how about traveling with us? I'm not very bright and can't communicate with this guy. Please help me talk to him so he won't bully me all day long!"

The girl glanced at Tuntun and remarked calmly, "A mere first-level spirit beast. Quite interesting. So ordinary, yet so confident."

"Stop, let's get back to my grandfather," Lin Chen interjected, taking a deep breath. "You said he taught you spiritual patterns. When did that happen?"

In his memories, his grandfather loved playing with some glowing patterns. However, Lin Chen didn't realize they were spiritual patterns at the time! And his grandfather never mentioned it to him.

"Three years ago, he came to the Lihuo Sect and taught me for two years. He left a year ago, and I haven't heard from him since... Before leaving, he told me he had hidden a secret in the memorial tablet the Lin family set up for him. He asked me to retrieve it when I had the chance," the girl explained calmly. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, my name is Su Yuwei."

"Su Yuwei?" Lin Chen's pupils constricted.

As the former top genius of the Da Cang Kingdom, he was familiar with the other geniuses in the Five Kingdoms.

Su Yuwei, the daughter of the Lihuo Sect's leader, possessed extraordinary talent. Her brilliance outshone everyone else in the Five Kingdoms.

At less than seventeen years old, she had reached the seventh level of the Earth Spirit Realm!

Remarkably, she also cultivated spiritual patterns and showed great promise in that area.

She was truly formidable!

"If my grandfather taught you, then I can trust you," Lin Chen mused. After experiencing numerous ups and downs in human relationships, he felt alienated from those around him. There were very few people he could genuinely confide in. This is why he focused solely on修炼and becoming stronger.

Su Yuwei raised an eyebrow, seemingly amused by Lin Chen's words.

"Here's the tablet."

Without hesitation, Lin Chen retrieved Lin Tianming's tablet from his Najie. Today, he had finally received some fantastic news! His grandfather wasn't dead!

Not only was he alive, but he was also a powerful spiritual pattern master. Although his grandfather had never revealed this to him, Lin Chen assumed he had his reasons.

Su Yuwei took the tablet and searched behind it, finding a small spiritual pattern. As she touched it, a burst of light enveloped her.

After a few breaths, the light dissipated.

Su Yuwei's brows furrowed as she seemed to be processing some information. Then, she looked at Lin Chen and said, "Alright, let's go!"

"Go? Where?" Lin Chen was momentarily confused.

"Back to the sect," Su Yuwei replied.

And so, Su Yuwei and Aunt Lian rode the white tiger, leaving the imperial city.

"Wait, my sister is still at the restaurant," Lin Chen called out.

"I'll let you go," Xu Kun responded.

He was concerned about Lin Chen's safety since Lu Zhan and the others were still lurking nearby.

When Lin Chen arrived at the restaurant room, he found Lin Ning'er sitting alone, eating quietly and gracefully.

"Xiao Chen, you're back," Lin Ning'er greeted him happily. "You... should've gone to the arena. What was the result?"

"Sister, look," Lin Chen said with a smile, pointing to the faint line between his eyebrows.

"This... this is the Lihuo Sect's symbol!"

Lin Ning'er recognized it, her eyes forming crescent moons. "This means you succeeded."

"Yes, sister, I'm taking you with me to the Lihuo Sect," Lin Chen declared, carrying Lin Ning'er on his back again. "After I settle down in the sect, I'll find someone to treat you."

"Xiao Chen, I don't want to hold you back..." Lin Ning'er softly replied, hugging Lin Chen's neck.

"Sister, you're my closest kin. Remember, your life is my life! I'll never let you suffer injustice again!"

Lin Chen's voice was firm and resolute.

Lin Ning'er smiled faintly, resting against Lin Chen's back. This feeling was so comforting.

"Elder Xu, I apologize for the wait," Lin Chen said, cupping his hands.

During the arena battle, when he was surrounded, Xu Kun had unhesitatingly come to his aid. At that moment, Lin Chen had felt genuine care. Was this the Lihuo Sect's way?

The three of them and the tree spirit exited the imperial city and found two carriages waiting for them.

Su Yuwei sat in one of the carriages, calmly sipping wine from a bottle.

"Coming?"

Upon seeing Lin Chen, she spoke calmly and tossed him a bottle of wine. "Try this."

Lin Chen uncorked the bottle and took a sip. The wine was spicy and harsh.

Su Yuwei noticed his reaction and curled her lips. "Is that all you got? You lived with Lin Tianming for so many years. Didn't you learn anything about drinking from him?"

"Grandpa didn't let me drink," Lin Chen honestly replied. "I've never seen him drink either."

Su Yuwei fell silent.

After a while, she gritted her teeth and muttered, "Old man!"

When Lin Tianming taught her spiritual patterns, his only request was that she chat and drink with him often. He claimed he had been feeling depressed in recent years.

Su Yuwei didn't understand it at the time, but now she did.

Why not drink in front of your grandson and pretend to be a good person, but drink with me?

Not only did he drink himself, but he also got me drinking.

He cultivated my drinking habit!

Lin Chen scratched his nose. He had no idea what his grandfather had taught Su Yuwei or what their relationship was, so he refrained from asking.

Halfway through the journey, Lin Chen couldn't help but ask, "How skilled is my grandfather in spiritual patterns?"

Su Yuwei glanced at Lin Chen, took a sip of wine, and replied, "Very skilled."

"How skilled?" Lin Chen's eyes lit up.

For Su Yuwei, the top genius of the Five Kingdoms, to say those words, it meant his grandfather must be highly accomplished in spiritual patterns.

"So skilled that... you'll be looking up to him for the rest of your life."

Su Yuwei seemed to recall something, and a complex look appeared in her calm, languid eyes.
