Chapter 55: Dinner 2
Just keep an eye on them. Yohan needs to protect himself from those assassins. Don't act until his life is in grave danger." The old man Lin looked towards the man who was bowing towards him.
Hearing those words, that man nodded his head and the next moment he disappeared from that place, leaving the old man Lin alone inside that room. Seeing this, the old man Lin took a deep breath.
"I think it's high time for him to start to learn how to survive in this cruel cultivation world," the old man mumbled those words as he disappeared from that room as if he had never existed inside that place.
Meanwhile…
"The elder Lin is also going to join us." Feng Ming and Feng Yun exchanged glances and the next moment they both looked towards Su Lin and Alena as they said those words.
Alena smiled and nodded her head towards Feng Yun and Feng Ming.
"Yes, father said that he is going to join us. He will be here soon." Alena looked towards the Ming couple sitting in front of her on the sofa, and Xiao Feng could be seen sitting beside her mother Feng Ming.
Su Lin and Alena, along with the Feng family, were talking with each other inside the dining hall as they had arrived earlier, and they were waiting for the elder Lin and Yohan, but Su Lin was looking very nervous about something.
Feng Yun noticed this and looked towards Su Lin.
"Are you okay, brother Lin? Is something bothering you? Is everything all right?"
Hearing those words from Feng Yun's mouth, Xiao Feng and Feng Ming looked towards Su Lin and Alena also took a deep breath as she knew why he was looking nervous.
Su Lin smiled towards Feng Yun.
"No, it's nothing, I am okay. Nowadays, various dungeon outbreaks are happening around the city so I was worried about the safety of the River Shore city and its people. Being a leader of one of the top clans is troublesome sometimes," he responded to Feng Yun as he changed the topic.
He didn't dare to tell them about Diya, whom Yohan had already chosen as his first official cultivation partner. Su Lin was nervous about how he was going to explain to his best friend that he couldn't fulfill his promise since Diya had become Yohan's first official partner, and top of that, both Diya and Yohan were going to join the dinner.
He knew that cultivators had various kinds of cultivation partners, but the first partner was held in high regard in every cultivator's life, just like Su Lin and Feng Yun both had cultivated with various partners but they both held their first partners in high regard.
Alena, Feng Yun and Feng Ming had all married their first partners and they all had promised each other in the past that Yohan and Xiao Feng would be going to marry each other once they reached adulthood.
But things took some different turns as he hadn't expected that Yohan would choose Diya over Xiao Feng. He couldn't believe what had happened in a few days as he knew that Yohan had always admired Xiao Feng despite him being total trash in cultivation. He had always loved Xiao Feng, so Su Lin had been confident that Yohan would not ditch Xiao Feng.
But when he had learned that Yohan had already chosen his cultivation partner, he was shocked, as he wanted to confront Yohan but the old man Lin and Alena came to Yohan's support.
Su Lin took a deep sigh and looked towards Feng Yun. Hearing about the dungeon break, Feng Yun also nodded his head.
"Yes, you are right, brother Su Lin, those dungeon breaks are happening very frequently, but apparently dungeon breaks also provide a fortune if you have a good amount of manpower to clear them," he responded to Su Lin.
Su Lin nodded his head.
"Yes, you are right, brother Yun, there are a few clans who are frequently taking missions to clear those dungeons and earning huge sums, but dungeons are unpredictable. Who knows what is awaiting inside those damn places?" he exclaimed and looked towards Feng Yun.
Meanwhile, Feng Ming, Alena, and Xiao Feng were hearing these two as they started discussing trivial and political things. On the other hand, Xiao Feng also looked worried about something as she wasn't interested in his father and uncle having this little talk. Her mind was somewhere else.
But suddenly everyone turned silent when they heard a voice.
"You guys are discussing those things here. Just look at these ladies, they are not enjoying your company!" The old man Lin entered the dining hall and looked towards Feng Yun and Su Lin as he said those words.
Seeing the old man Lin, everyone stood up in their seats while Feng Ming and Feng Yun bowed their heads towards the elder Lin and Xiao Feng also followed his mother and father as she also gave her a greeting to him.
The old man Lin nodded his head and smiled towards Feng Yun and Feng Ming.
"It's been a while since the last time, Feng Ming and Feng Yun. You are looking the same as two years ago," he said, looking towards the Ming couple and his gaze went towards Xiao Feng.
"You have become a fine lady. I heard various good things about you." The old man said those words and he took a seat on the sofa beside Su Lin and Alena, and the Ming family also sat down in their seats again.
Xiao Feng looked towards the elder Lin as she nodded her head.
"I am very fortunate that you heard about me, it's an honor to be praised by you," she responded to the elder Lin.
The elder Lin smiled towards her and nodded his head and his gaze went towards Su Lin and Alena.
"Where are Yohan and Diya? They haven't come yet?" he asked.
Feng Ming and Feng Yun became curious after hearing that name, while Xiao Feng's face turned dark as she heard that name.
"Who is Diya, brother Su Lin? I haven't heard that name before.'' Feng Yun looked towards Su Lin. Feng Ming also followed his husband's gaze as she also became curious about that girl named Diya.
But to their surprise, hearing those words, Su Lin and Alena exchanged glances with each other, while Su Lin's expression became stiff as he heard those words from the Ming couple's mouths.
Feng Ming and Feng Yun were taken aback seeing this. They didn't know why Su Lin's expression changed drastically after hearing that name. Seeing this, the old man Lin took a deep breath.
"Grandpa, you are also joining us today!" Suddenly, a voice came from the entrance of the dining hall, and their gazes went towards Yohan who was standing there while a beautiful woman could be seen standing behind him.
Yohan's gaze was on the old man Lin as he became surprised to see his grandpa there. Su Lin's heart started beating faster and louder as he finally saw his son and Diya. Alena also took a deep breath after seeing those expressions on her husband's face.
Feng Ming and Feng Yun were surprised to see Yohan as he was looking very tall, muscular, and very handsome. He was looking different from his previous self. In the past, he was skinny and didn't have confidence in himself but now his whole personality had changed.
Xiao Feng's face turned dark seeing Yohan. He was looking completely different and his aura was also different. Her heart started beating faster and louder after seeing him again but she hadn't expected this.
"Come, son we are waiting for you." The old man Lin looked towards Yohan as he said those words, and the next moment the old man Lin's gaze went towards Diya, who was looking very nervous.
Seeing this, the old man Lin chuckled.
"Diya, come, child, introduce yourself to our guests," the old man Lin said to Diya.
Diya looked towards Yohan. Seeing those expressions, Yohan chuckled.
"Go, grandpa is calling for you," he said to her.
Meanwhile, the Feng family became more curious as they heard those words from the elder Lin's mouth, while Xiao Feng was still in a daze as she couldn't believe her eyes. She nervously swallowed her saliva and looked towards Yohan and Diya.
~~~~~~
A man could be seen walking here and there inside a room as he was looking anxious. He was frequently looking towards the door as he was waiting for someone.
And the next moment he heard a knock on his door. Hearing that knock, he took a deep sigh.
"Come inside," he responded to the knock.
And the next moment a man entered that room, wearing an entirely black attire and his face was hidden with a long hood as only his lips were visible in that dark room.
That hooded man bowed towards the man who was looking furious about something. He nervously swallowed his saliva seeing that furious gaze.
"Why are you standing like an idiot, where is that woman right now? Did you find out something about Diya?"
