True Martial World

The woman knew that Su Jie would definitely suffer a defeat at the tea session. Although his Desolate Heaven technique standard was extremely high, he would not be able to resist against the gurus of the Shen Tu family clan. No matter how strong Su Jie was, he would probably lose.

The woman was not on good terms with Su Jie, so seeing Su Jie suffer naturally made her delighted. Also, if the Shen Tu family clan proved their strength, then it would support her position. As no matter how she saw it, this marriage would only benefit the Lin family.

”You do not need to worry about my preparations. Why? You seem to look forward to the Lin family being trampled on?”

Since he did not have a good impression of her and had been targeted by her mean words, Su Jie naturally would not take it sitting down. He immediately attacked back verbally.

”Elder Su, you don’t need to imply that I’m helping others secretly. Of course I wish the Lin family to be in the limelight, but I would not blindly dream. Does it mean you will win just because I wish you will win?”

Seeing the woman about to quarrel with Su Jie, the Matriarch’s face sank and reprimanded the woman, ”Quiet! Have some decency!”

The Matriarch’s voice was sincere as Su Jie nodded, ”I will do my best. May the Matriarch be at ease!”

”Alright.” The Matriarch nodded and turned towards Lin Xintong, ”Xintong, I will not force you. You should walk down your own path. You still have a long life ahead.”

”I have lived so long and have seen too many people and things. Having experienced so much, I only want to tell you that you are still young. Whatever you are thinking of now, and what you are insisting on now might be childish and ridiculous when you really grow up a few thousand years in the future.”

”What you hold deeply might not be what you want… You might rather die now, but eventually, you might accept it despite the humiliation. Maybe one day, you might even celebrate that you had given in… ”

After the Matriarch finished speaking, she used her cane and under the companionship of the group of girls, left.
