Capítulo 2206: Chapter 1128: Attitude
Jinfeng Nation, Qingyun Mountain Lin Family Ancestral Land.
In the Family Reception Hall, Lin Shilu sat in a high position, with Lin Xingyuan sitting properly below him.
Opposite Lin Xingyuan sat the siblings Liang Zhuoying and his sister.
At this ti, representatives of the two family clans were engaged in casual conversation.
Regarding the purpose of Liang Zhuoying and his sister’s visit to the Lin Family, Lin Shilu could guess through Lin Tianming’s perspective.
In his eyes, the visit from Liang Zhuoying and his sister was in alignnt with Lin Tianming’s thoughts.
Therefore, Lin Shilu promptly arranged for Lin Xingyuan to warmly receive these high-ranking mbers of the Liang Family.
It was not until today that Lin Shilu personally ca forward to et the Liang siblings.
After a round of courteous exchanges, Liang Zhuoying was the first to change the topic.
“Daoist Lin, our siblings and Daoist Tianming and his wife, as well as Daoist Tianfeng, are all old acquaintances and have fought side by side on many occasions.”
“But it’s been many years since we last t, and we are curious about the current situation of these Lin Family friends?”
Liang Zhuoying deliberately brought up Lin Tianming and his wife, as well as Lin Tianfeng, clearly intending to steer the conversation towards the younger generation of the Lin Family.
Especially Lin Tianming, who was one of the primary reasons for the Liang siblings’ visit to the Lin Family.
Under this mindset, Liang Zhuoying shifted the topic in hopes of opening the conversation to gather the intelligence the Liang Family sought.
Faced with Liang Zhuoying’s words, Lin Shilu let out a chuckle, his face showing a aningful smile.
In fact, he naturally understood the intentions of the Liang siblings.
As for their purpose, both Lin Tianming and he were already aware.
Because of this, Lin Tianming had ntioned that he would make an appearance today, not only to et these old acquaintances from the Liang Family but also to reassure them and allow the Liang Family to make early plans.
With this in mind, seeing the Liang siblings eager to inquire for news, Lin Shilu smiled and spoke.
“Daoist Liang, there’s no need to worry. Our Tianming is also aware of your busy schedules in visiting us and has specifically instructed to offer a warm welco.”
“Moreover, our Tianming has said he will co to et you two today, further strengthening the amicable relationship between our two families.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Zhuoying smiled with satisfaction, feeling a sense of relief.
In his eyes, he was sowhat concerned that the Lin Family might intentionally conceal sothing.
If that were the case, fulfilling the purpose of their news-gathering trip would be quite challenging.
More importantly, if the Lin Family were to act that way, it would subtly indicate a specific signal—they might no longer consider the Liang Family an ally but instead adopt a stance of superiority, treating the Liang Family as subordinates and guarding against them at every turn.
Potentially, the Lin Family might even harbor ambitions to annex the Liang Family and dominate the entire Jinfeng Nation.
Such an outco was sothing the Liang Family absolutely did not wish to see.
However, from Lin Shilu’s reaction, the Lin Family did not seem to harbor excessive ambitions, and even if they took that step, they would not go too far.
At the very least, regarding such a loyal ally as the Liang Family, the Lin Family would still consider past camaraderie.
Precisely because of this, from Lin Shilu’s response, Liang Zhuoying basically inferred the Lin Family’s attitude.
Understanding this, the Liang siblings inwardly breathed a sigh of relief.
Following this, as Lin Shilu spoke, Liang Zhuoying laughed heartily with a hint of reminiscence on his face.
“Haha… Daoist Tianming is indeed trustworthy…”
“After all these years, he still rembers our sibling duo and the experiences we shared fighting side by side, which truly touches us deeply.”
“For this reason, when we left the Liang Family, our elders repeatedly instructed us to be sure to et Daoist Tianming, also to convey the goodwill from our elders.”
“Unexpectedly, upon learning of our visit, Daoist Tianming made ti from his busy schedule to et with us.”
“This sentint will certainly be rembered by our siblings.”
“Our Liang Family will also surely cherish this goodwill.”
Liang Zhuoying replied with a smile, consistently ntioning their past experiences fighting alongside each other.
Clearly, the Liang Family could only keep emphasizing their past cooperation, hoping that the Lin Family would consider their historical friendship and give the Liang Family so leeway.
And regarding Liang Zhuoying’s deanor, Lin Shilu was not surprised.
On the contrary, from the perspective of the Liang Family, it is only natural to act this way.
After all, with Jinfeng Nation undergoing unexpected changes, the once-equal ironclad allies of the Liang Family have beco a much stronger force, instantly creating an unbridgeable gap.
In the face of such changes, the Liang Family must lower their stance to survive.
Yet, for their own interests, the Liang Family can only use the closeness of the past to try to secure more space and greater benefits for themselves.
If they resign themselves to fate, the Liang Family will beco even more passive.
This understanding is clear to the senior mbers of the Liang Family, as it is to the Lin Family.
Hence, in response to Liang Zhuoying’s deliberate remarks, Lin Shilu smiled and continued along with his wording.
Shortly thereafter, a figure appeared outside the Guest-Receiving Palace; it was indeed Lin Tianming.
At that mont, upon seeing Lin Tianming, the Liang siblings promptly stood up.
From afar, they heard Liang Zhuoying speak with a smile: “Daoist Lin, it’s been a while since we last t; how have you been recently?”
