Chapter 2459: Chapter 2479: He’s a Good Man!

As an elder, Yao Xiong felt it wasn’t appropriate to confront the Lan Zhengwu siblings since they weren’t his own children, but Lin Chen disciplining them was exactly what Yao Xiong wanted. Why would he reprimand Lin Chen?

Not only did he not scold Lin Chen, but he even told Lan Xincheng that Lin Chen did well!

Not just the two of them, even you should watch your words. Otherwise, if your sister finds out, she’ll smack you!

Although Lan Xinwu was reluctant at heart, he didn’t dare to say anything more excessive. He could only swallow the bitter loss in silence, saying coldly, "I was well-intentioned in advising you, but you are ungrateful... I take my leave!"

Lan Xinwu turned and walked away. At this moment, the two who had tumbled like rolling gourds had already picked themselves up, glaring at Lin Chen with indignation.

"This is the Blue God Sect and we got beaten up by him. Are we just going to let it slide?"

Lan Xinwu glared at Lan Zhengwu and said coldly, "Can you beat him?"

Lan Zhengwu was taken aback for a moment but retorted, "I can’t beat him, but there are others."

Lan Xinwu snapped furiously, "Haven’t we lost enough face already? Let’s go!"

Lan Zhengwu and Lan Yiwen were so intimidated by Lan Xinwu’s shout that they didn’t dare say another word and turned to leave. As they neared the entrance, Lan Zhengwu turned his head and pointed provocatively at Lin Chen.

Everyone saw this provocative gesture, and Lin Chen just curled his lips, ignoring it.

The whimper of a defeated dog.

After everyone left, Yao Xuanji was the first to express discontent, "Dad, do they treat you like this on normal days too?"

Yao Xiong said with a laugh, "The Lan Family has quite a few people. Since your Aunt Lan and I are together, naturally many don’t approve, but nobody dares to say anything in front of your Aunt Lan. At most, they make some sour remarks behind our backs."

"I usually don’t have much contact with them. This quarrel happened because we’re here to celebrate your Aunt Lan’s event. Encounters are inevitable. It’s not a big deal. Just pretend you didn’t hear it."

Yao Xiong comforted his daughter and then turned to Lin Chen with a smile, "The Lan Zhengwu siblings are used to being arrogant because of Xinyu’s position in the sect, but it’s not my place to scold or discipline them. You helped me out, and for that, I must thank you."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "There are always some who look down on others. Just ignore them. If they want to bite, give them a few smacks. We are family after all, Uncle Yao. Don’t blame me for messing things up. Just having Aunt Lan take care of it later would be enough."

Yao Xiong said with a laugh, "Not at all. If your Aunt Lan knew about this, they might even get a proper beating from her. But let’s put the matter behind us. We, as men, shouldn’t be petty."

Lin Chen nodded and changed the subject, "There are quite a few guests this time, aren’t there?"

Yao Xiong hummed in agreement, "Yes, the Blue God Sect has been rooted here for thousands of years, so there are quite a few friends. Besides, we also invited nearby sects out of courtesy, and that adds up to quite a number of people."

"These matters are irrelevant to you. Just treat it as if you came here for fun, for the lively atmosphere. After all, it’s been rather solitary for you guys on the island. Although cultivation is important, there’s no need to rush. You should still relax when it’s time to."

"Okay!"

Yao Xiong threw a token to Lin Chen, "This is my token. With this, you can come and go from the sect as you please. There are still a few days before the banquet. If you get bored in the sect, you can also visit nearby Qingye City. It’s very lively there. I need to help out here, so I won’t be able to accompany you."

Lin Chen received the token and replied with a smile, "We’ll manage on our own. Uncle Yao, you’re busy, no need to worry about us."

Yao Xiong admonished, "If you encounter any trouble, just mention your Aunt Lan’s name. In the Blue God Sect’s territory, everyone should give face, no matter who it is."

"Okay!"

After Yao Xiong left, Yao Xuanji mumbled, "It seems like father’s presence imposes a lot of restraint here."

Lin Chen reassured her, "In the Cultivation World, the strong are revered. Aunt Lan is so powerful; it’s normal for people to make sour comments. But as long as the two of them truly love and respect each other, why bother about others’ idle gossip?"

"Although Aunt Lan is much more powerful than Uncle Yao, it’s obvious that she loves him very much and cares about his feelings. She also makes sure to give him face in public. They’re quite affectionate."

"Aren’t the likes of Lan Zhengwu who are spoiled second-generation immortals common in our experience? We can’t blame Aunt Lan for their faults, can we?"

"Life is to be lived by oneself. Uncle Yao has lived heroically; he’s not the kind to settle for less. If he really couldn’t stand it, he wouldn’t be willingly staying here."

After Lin Chen said this, Yao Xuanji’s gloominess dissipated significantly.

Chu Jiaxue also spoke up to comfort, "Who doesn’t have some difficult relatives? My relatives were no different back then, pandering and stepping on others to get ahead. Just ignore them."

"Uncle Yao is such a figure; he won’t stand beneath others forever. In a few more years, those people might change their tune, praising Aunt Lan for having an eye for talent..."

Shang Wenyin, plain in appearance, was an unnoticed spectator throughout the scene.

As he watched Lin Chen boldly stand up for Yao Xiong and put the Lan siblings in their place without giving Lan Xincheng any face, listening to his impactful words, he couldn’t help but admire.

Such a strong character!

Such a manly
