Within half an incense stick's time, Lin Shiming had flown to the Council Hall.
At this moment, the Council Hall had been renovated once again to become a two-story building, a symbol of a Foundation Establishment Family Head. If Lin Shiming were to break through to the Purple Mansion stage and still be the Family Head, it would be transformed into a three-story building.
On the second floor of the Council Hall, Lin Shiming saw Lin Yuqing, the Great Elder of the Lin Family, shakily and eagerly waiting. His heart settled somewhat upon seeing Lin Shiming enter.
Behind the Great Elder, Lin Yuqing, stood a middle-aged man of around fifty years old. The man was also dressed in fine robes, his features exuded vigor, bearing a slight resemblance to the Great Elder in his younger days, also anxiously waiting on the side.
