Balala the Magic Fairy
Chapter 20 Legends about the Zhen Clan (Page 11)
Yan Lili and Lin Jing spent a peaceful time in the cave until Yan Lili's injuries were fully recovered.
Lin Jing took Yan Lili back to his home in Wujing.
This is a magnificent mansion located in the center of Wujing, surrounded by high walls. Inside the mansion are pavilions, towers and exquisite gardens, which show the owner's extraordinary identity and status.
Entering the mansion, Lin Jing introduced her family and family history to Yan Lili.
Only then did Yan Lili realize that Lin Jing was actually the son of Martial Ancestor Lin Dong.
Lin Dong is the legendary hero of the Martial Realm. He single-handedly pacified the chaos in the Martial Realm and established a powerful martial arts family.
Yan Lili was shocked by Lin Jing's identity, but she was also full of respect for his family.
She knew that Lin Dong's deeds were widely circulated in the martial arts world and he was an idol in the hearts of countless warriors.
Lin Jing saw Yan Lili's surprise, and he smiled and said, "Although I am Lin Dong's son, I hope to win respect with my own strength. My father once told me that the road of martial arts needs to be walked and explored step by step by myself."
Yan Lili nodded, she understood what Lin Jing said.
She herself also experienced countless challenges and trials in the sword domain before gradually growing into an outstanding swordsman.
At Lin Jing's home, Yan Lili received a warm welcome from the Lin family.
Although Lin Dong was not at home, his wife and other family members were very friendly and extended a warm welcome to Yan Lili.
During the time at the Lin family, Yan Lili did not relax her practice.
She practiced swordsmanship in the Lin family's martial arts field, and also learned the Lin family's martial arts secrets, hoping to further improve her strength.
Lin Jing also often accompanies Yan Lili, and the two of them practice martial arts and exchange experiences together.
Under Lin Jing's guidance, Yan Lili gained a deeper understanding of Wujing's martial arts, and her swordsmanship also improved.

Ling Qingzhu, wife of Martial Ancestor Lin Dong.
Her return filled the entire Lin family with a festive atmosphere.
Her cultivation is unfathomable and her temperament is cold, like a fairy in the Moon Palace, making people dare not look directly at her.
At a dinner party, Ling Qingzhu looked back and forth between Lin Jing and Yan Lili, her eyes revealing a hint of barely perceptible worry.
After the dinner, she called Lin Jing to the study, her tone calm but with unquestionable firmness.
"Jing'er, you and that woman seem to be too close." Although Ling Qingzhu's voice was gentle, the meaning of her words was very clear.
Lin Jing was stunned for a moment, then he understood his mother's concern, and he answered frankly: "Mom, Lily is my savior, we are just friends."
Ling Qingzhu shook her head, a complex expression flashed in her eyes, "Jing'er, your identity is different, and your every move is related to the reputation of the Lin family. I don't want the relationship between you to bring unnecessary trouble to the Lin family."
Lin Jing was silent. He knew that his mother's words made sense, but the feelings he had for Yan Lili were not so easy to give up.
Seeing her son silent, Ling Qingzhu continued, "Jing'er, you are the heir of the Lin family. Your future should be decided by yourself. But before that, you must consider the interests of the family. I hope you can carefully consider your relationship with that woman."
Lin Jing took a deep breath, knowing that this was a choice he had to make. He bowed to his mother and left the study.

Ling Qingzhu pondered alone in the study for a moment, then walked out slowly. Her steps were light but filled with unquestionable determination.
She found Yan Lili, with an unquestionable coldness in her tone.
"Miss Yan, I know you saved Jing'er, and the Lin family will remember your kindness. However, your presence has caused some unnecessary disturbances." Ling Qingzhu's voice was calm, but every word seemed to be carefully considered. "Lin Jing is the heir of the Lin family. He has a great responsibility and cannot let his personal feelings affect the future of the entire family."
Yan Lili felt mixed emotions as she listened to Ling Qingzhu's words.
"Mrs. Ling, I understand your concerns. I have never thought of causing any trouble to Lin Jing or the Lin family." Yan Lili's voice was soft but firm. "I will handle my feelings well and will not let my personal affairs affect Lin Jing."
Ling Qingzhu looked at Yan Lili, with a complicated light flashing in her eyes.
She knew that this woman was no ordinary person. Her sword skills and inner determination were impressive.
"I hope you can keep your promise." Ling Qingzhu said, turned and left. Her figure looked particularly lonely in the moonlight.
When Lin Jing learned of his mother's warning, his heart was filled with contradictions and struggles.
He found Ling Qingzhu and tried to explain the relationship between himself and Yan Lili.
"Mother, Lily is not a stranger. She saved me." There was a hint of anxiety in Lin Jing's voice.
Ling Qingzhu turned around, with a hint of sternness in her eyes, "Jing'er, you are the hope of the Lin family. Your future cannot be affected by momentary emotions. You must consider the interests of the entire family."
Lin Jing was silent. He knew that his mother's words made sense, but his heart could not calm down.
He took a deep breath and said firmly: "Mother, I know my responsibilities, but I cannot ignore my feelings. Lily is not only a lifesaver to me, she is also my friend and my partner."
Ling Qingzhu looked at her son's determined eyes, and a trace of helplessness flashed through her heart. She knew Lin Jing's character, and once he made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.
"Jing'er, you've grown up and have your own ideas and choices. I just hope that your choice won't make you regret it." Ling Qingzhu's voice softened, but there was still worry in her eyes.
Lin Jing bowed to his mother, then turned and left the study.
It was late at night, and Lin Jing was walking alone in the Lin family's courtyard, his heart full of thoughts.
Yan Lili stood in front of the window, looking at the stars in the night sky, and she had her own plans in mind.
/
Ling Qingzhu had her own plans in mind.
She believed that for the stability and future of the Lin family, Lin Jing needed a wife who matched his status, an ally who could support him in the martial arts world.
Lin Pinru, as the daughter of another powerful family in Wujing, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
Under Ling Qingzhu's arrangement, the Lin family's mansion began to get busy with preparations for a grand wedding.
Ling Qingzhu personally came forward and negotiated with Lin Pinru's family, and the two sides quickly reached a consensus.
Lin Pinru, her family's alliance with the Lin family will bring huge benefits to the Lin family.
When Lin Jing learned the news, his heart was full of contradictions.
He knew what this marriage meant to the Lin family, but there was only Yan Lili in his heart.
"Mother, I can't marry Lin Pinru." Lin Jing stood in front of Ling Qingzhu, her tone firm, "I already have someone in my heart, I can't betray my feelings."
Ling Qingzhu's eyes flashed with sternness, "Jing'er, do you know what you are saying? This is a family decision, not a joke. Lin Pinru will be your wife, which will bring unprecedented glory and power to the Lin family."
"But mother, I don't love Lin Pinru." Lin Jing's voice was filled with pain. "I can't give up my happiness for the sake of the family's interests."
Ling Qingzhu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Jing'er, you are the heir of the Lin family. Your happiness is inseparable from the interests of the family. You must learn to take responsibility. For the future of the Lin family, sometimes we have to make sacrifices."
Lin Jing said nothing more. He knew his mother's words made sense, but his heart could not calm down. He turned and left the study, walking alone in the courtyard, his heart full of confusion and struggle.
Yan Lili was filled with pain when she heard the news. She knew that the relationship between her and Lin Jing would face a greater test. But she did not give up. She decided to protect the relationship between her and Lin Jing in her own way.
On the eve of the wedding, Yan Lili found Lin Jing, her eyes full of determination.
"Lily, I am willing to give up everything just to be with you." Lin Jing's voice was low and firm. He held Yan Lili's hand, and both of them had hope for the future in their eyes.
However, just as they were about to leave the Lin family, Lin Pinru suddenly appeared.
Her eyes were filled with anger and jealousy. She couldn't accept that Lin Jing refused to marry her for someone else.
"Lin Jing, do you really want to give up our marriage and the future of the Lin family for her?" Lin Pinru's voice trembled, and she held a sharp dagger tightly in her hand.
Lin Jing turned around and faced Lin Pinru. There was no fear in his eyes, only determination.
"Pinru, I respect you, but I cannot deceive my own heart. I love Lily, and I cannot marry you." As soon as Lin Jing finished speaking, a hint of madness flashed in Lin Pinru's eyes.
"In that case, let you both die together!" Lin Pinru roared, and she rushed towards Yan Lili, the dagger in her hand flashing coldly.
Seeing this, Lin Jing immediately protected Yan Lili behind him, but he did not expect Lin Pinru to be so fast. As soon as he stretched out his hand, the dagger had already stabbed Yan Lili.
"No!" Lin Jing's roar echoed in the night sky. Yan Lili's body fell softly into his arms. Blood gushed out from her chest, staining her clothes red.
Lin Jing's eyes were filled with despair. He hugged Yan Lili tightly, tears streaming down his eyes.
"Lily, you can't die, you can't leave me!" Lin Jing's voice was filled with tears. He desperately pressed his hand on Yan Lili's wound, trying to stop the blood from flowing out.
A smile appeared on Yan Lili's face and her hand gently stroked Lin Jing's face.
"Lin Jing, don't be sad. I'm already satisfied to die in your arms." Yan Lili's voice became weaker and weaker, her eyes slowly closed and never opened again.
Lin Jing's heart was filled with pain and anger. He raised his head and glared at Lin Pinru.
"Lin Pinru, I want you to pay for Lily's death!" A powerful aura burst out from Lin Jing's body, his sword was unsheathed, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Lin Pinru.
A trace of fear flashed in Lin Pinru's eyes. She didn't expect her behavior to lead to such consequences. But she quickly calmed down. Her family would not let her fall like this.
"Lin Jing, you forced me to do this!" A powerful force also burst out from Lin Pinru's body. She knew that she had to face Lin Jing's anger.
The battle between the two was about to break out, sword energy and power collided in the air, and the entire Lin family fell into chaos.
This is what Ling Qingzhu and the other members of the Lin family saw when they arrived. Ling Qingzhu was filled with shock and grief. She did not expect things to develop to this point.
"Jing'er, stop!" There was a hint of trembling in Ling Qingzhu's voice. She didn't want to see her son get hurt again.
Lin Jing's body paused, and the tip of his sword stopped in mid-air. He turned his head and looked at his mother, his eyes full of pain and confusion.
"Mother, Lily she..." Lin Jing was interrupted by Ling Qingzhu before she could finish her words.
"Jing'er, put down the sword, everything can still be salvaged." There was a hint of pleading in Ling Qingzhu's voice. She didn't want to see the family fall apart because of this tragedy.
