Chapter 371: Prime Minister Wei Tian Shu

~7 min read 1,371 words

"Disaster?"

Hearing those two words, Yu Xia'an's eyebrows twitched, they clenched their teeth, "Who dares to harm my child, I'll fight them to the death!"

Lin Yan hurriedly soothed:

"The anomaly won't last long; it will soon be eclipsed by the anomaly caused by the Grand General's daughter, so it should be fine."

Yu Xia'an was shocked,

"The Grand General's daughter? Born on the same year, month, and day as our child? Also caused an anomaly?"

"Yes."

Lin Yan laughed, "So, this marriage is predestined by Heaven; it's a bond sent by fate."

"Perhaps the Grand General's household's great power had already calculated it, and thus sent the marriage contract early."

"I hope so," Yu Xia'an worried about another issue, "You said, if the Grand General's household learns that my son caused the anomaly, will they renege on the marriage?"

The Grand General's household wanting to break off the marriage with the Lin Family is just a matter of a single sentence.

"It won't happen."

Lin Yan shook his head, "The Grand General is upright and incorruptible, never breaking his word; once set, it won't change."

Lin Chuan lay on the bed, listening to his parents' conversation in this life, feeling something different.

After all, he started out as an 'orphan' before.

"Lin Family Lin Yan!"

At that moment, a booming voice rang from the Heavenly Dome, "Prime Minister has arrived, why don't you hurry out and kneel to see!"

Lin Yan's tiger-like body shivered, "Prime Minister Wei Tian Shu arrived so quickly; it seems he has already calculated that the source of the anomaly is my son."

The Cloud Kingdom, as the most ancient imperial dynasty, has three Wangxian seated in this era.

They are the Cloud Emperor, Prime Minister Wei Tian Shu, and Grand General Yun Zhen Shan.

Wei Tian Shu and Yun Zhen Shan have always been at odds.

Now that Wei Tian Shu has come, Lin Yan anticipates no good.

"Wife, rest well, I'll be back."

After speaking, Lin Yan bowed, kissed Yu Xia'an, then turned his head toward Lin Chuan.

Seeing that scruffy-bearded face, Lin Chuan didn't hesitate and kicked out.

"This kid still looks down on me."

Lin Yan was amused.

"Where is the head of the Lin Family? Hurry out and pay respects to the Prime Minister!"

Outside, a cold voice rang again.

Lin Yan took a deep breath and stepped outward.

Lin Chuan lay beside Yu Xia'an, watching his pale, worried mother, and then glancing at his sobbing sister.

What a bad start!

Born and immediately caught in a supreme power struggle of a super force.

He could still hear the rolling thunderous voice outside.

"Lin Yan, I, the Prime Minister, have recently observed the heavens; through the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, I calculate that a disaster will befall our Cloud Kingdom."

"The day the disaster is born is today."

"Just now I saw the disaster anomaly manifest; after calculation, I found its source lies within Lin Fu."

Every word from Wei Tian Shu carried supreme authority.

Lin Yan clenched his teeth, his back soaked, unable to utter a single word.

"Since you won't speak, I, the Prime Minister, will go into Lin Fu and find it."

Wei Tian Shu took a step and was already inside Lin Fu.

Boom!

In an instant, Lin Chuan felt a terrifying divine consciousness envelop him.

"Someone should come to the rescue now, right?"

Lin Chuan was thinking when another powerful aura descended.

It seemed a Killing God, risen from a sea of corpses and blood, had arrived.

"Wei Tian Shu! My in‑law, what gives you the right to intervene? How dare you run wild in Lin Fu,"

"do you believe I won't slaughter your entire clan?"

Domineering! Arrogant!

Both from the Wangxian Realm, the newcomer seemed to completely disregard Prime Minister Wei Tian Shu.

"Yun Zhen Shan, since when is the Lin Family your in‑law?" Wei Tian Shu sneered.

In the distance, a tall, burly man bearing an Overlord Halberd carried a baby girl as he shattered the sky.

Yun Zhen Shan waved his hand, conjuring a golden marriage contract.

Before the Lin Family's Qilin child was even born, I, this general, already arranged a marriage contract for my daughter with him; I, the old man, am fully legitimate—what are you?

"Before the Lin Family's qilin child was even born, this General already arranged a marriage contract for his daughter with them; I am fully legitimate, what are you?"

"Get out!"

The killing Deity-like momentum made Wei Tianshu's face turn awkward, yet he dared not clash with it, and he also did not leave the Lin Family, merely restraining his breath.

The god‑like murderous aura made Wei Tian Shu's face turn pale; he dared not clash directly, yet he also didn't retreat from the Lin Family, merely restraining his aura.

Inside the courtyard, Lin Yan felt a weight lift.

"The Grand General has arrived! My son should be safe now."

【61】 "I have seen the Grand General."

Lin Yan performed a bow.

"No need for ceremony."

Yun Zhenshan chuckled and said, "From now on we're family; don't address me by the title Grand General any more, just call me Brother Zhenshan."

"Yes! Grand General!"

Lin Yan dared not call out recklessly.

Seeing this, Yun Zhenshan didn't mind and simply smiled, "May I see your young master?"

"Of course."

Lin Yan nodded, his gaze flicking to the infant in Yun Zhenshan's arms, "Grand General, is this the young lady?"

"Yes."

Yun Zhenshan nodded.

After a short while, Yu Xia'an emerged holding two children.

Yun Zhenshan stepped forward, intending to look at the boy, but his eyes couldn't help but be drawn to the girl, "This child… extraordinary."

"If her innate aperture hadn't been sealed, she could have been a natural Supreme."

"It seems the laws of Heaven and Earth are deliberately protecting her; once she grows older, that innate aperture can be opened."

"Then the child's potential will be even greater."

The Supreme is the Mortal Dust Eighth Realm—Supreme Realm, also called Mortal Dust Supreme Being.

From afar, State Chancellor Wei Tianshu narrowed his eyes, "A natural Supreme born into a tiny Lin Family?"

Lin Yan heard this, his face full of joy, and Yu Xia'an could not hide her delight either.

"Grand General, what about my son? How is he?"

The daughter is a pride of Heaven, but Lin Yan worries more about the son, for the omen that accompanied his birth was truly strange.

"Your son…"

Yun Zhenshan paused, "Very odd; this General has never seen such a strange Path embryo, perhaps he only has a blessed fate."

Yu Xia'an felt a sudden thump in her heart.

Lin Yan grew urgent and asked, "Grand General, what about the marriage pact between my son and the young lady?"

"Are you afraid this General will renege?"

Yun Zhenshan laughed heartily, "Ridiculous! Once this General speaks, even four horses cannot chase it back, so I would never renege; however, this matter ultimately depends on whether my daughter is willing."

Lin Yan was stunned, his expression bitter.

The Grand General's daughter has just been born; where could there be willingness or unwillingness? Isn't it all just a matter of a senior's word at home?

Wei Tianshu seized the chance to mock, "People say General Zhenshan is unparalleled in demeanor, yet he turns out to be a hypocrite."

"What? Seeing the Lin Family's Qilin child as an ominous disaster, you want to renege?"

"If you want to renege, just say so; why fabricate such clumsy excuses."

With those words, the atmosphere instantly solidified.

Lin Yan and Yu Xia'an, as a couple, dared not even breathe; the marriage pact hinged on a single word from Yun Zhenshan.

Yu Xia'an had previously not wanted an alliance marriage, but now she longs for the Grand General to stay.

Only this way can her children survive.

Otherwise, as soon as the Grand General departs, State Chancellor Wei Tianshu will never be satisfied.

Facing Wei Tianshu's mockery, Yun Zhenshan snorted coldly, "I said, as long as my daughter is willing, everything is settled."

Listening to the 'Masters' dispute, Lin Chuan now only wanted to say one sentence.

"Quickly bring my family's Xiao Qingmei up."
