"So that's how it is, Consultant Lin, you really are a hidden talent!" Bai Zhentian exclaimed with admiration and a hint of relief in his tone, as if the doubts he had had for many years had been answered at this moment.

"Advisor Lin, what is your connection with the mysterious man that Master Xuan just mentioned?" he asked.

"No, I also know nothing about the mysterious person that Bei Xuan mentioned." Lin Han shook his head slightly, a trace of solemnity flashing in his eyes, "But I can feel that the existence of that mysterious person is far beyond our imagination."

"Oh, I see..." Bai Zhentian nodded thoughtfully, then smiled with relief. "It seems this world is far more complex and profound than we see it. However, with strong people like Consultant Lin and Master Xuan protecting us, our Xia Nation will naturally be able to stand at the top of the world and not fear any challenge."

Lin Han nodded after hearing this, then changed the subject and said, "By the way, Senior Bai, how did you know my identity and where I am here?"

Could it be that Brother Wu Hao told you?

Bai Zhentian smiled heartily upon hearing this, then shook his head and said, "No, Brother Wu Hao is indeed very powerful, but I didn't learn about this through him. It was Team Leader Mu Lingfeng who informed me. Team Leader Mu Lingfeng also received a notification from a big shot. I happened to be in Jinnan City, so he notified me to come!"

"Big shot? Who?" Lin Han frowned slightly, thinking to himself that there was such a "big shot" in Xia country who could foresee the opportunities and grasp his movements. This made him feel surprised and a little uneasy.

"What a coincidence! That important figure also has the surname Lin. He is none other than Lin Cangxuan, the head of the Lin family, the most prestigious family in Xia Country!"

Bai Zhentian's words were like thunder out of the blue, which made Lin Han slightly stunned.

"Lin Cangxuan? Could it be... my so-called grandfather?" Lin Han was shocked and pondered secretly, saying: "In that case, my identity as the special operations consultant of the Dragon Group must have naturally been known to him. It seems that every step I take in Xia Country is under his control, or in other words, he tacitly approves and guides me to a certain extent."

"Lin... Consultant Lin? What are you thinking about? Could it be that Lord Lin Cangxuan has a connection with you?" Bai Zhentian couldn't help but speak when he saw Lin Han in a daze.

Lin Han came back to his senses, gave a wry smile, and said, "As for our connection, I suppose there is. But over the years, there has been more of a sense of unfamiliarity and distance between him and me."

"Stranger and distance..." Bai Zhentian muttered to himself. Then he seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "Advisor Lin, could it be that you are the son of Lin Yuanshan, the eldest son of the Lin family who ran away from home twenty years ago?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Han's eyes darkened slightly, a bitter smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and he nodded gently. "Yes, Senior Bai, I am Lin Yuanshan's son, Lin Han." Saying this, it was as if the burden of many years had been lifted, but the complex emotions in his heart were difficult to describe.

"Oh my god!" Bai Zhentian suddenly slapped his thigh, his face filled with shock and disbelief. "This plot is even more dramatic than a novel! Consultant Lin, it turns out your skills are all from such a deep family background. No wonder you're able to serve as the special operations consultant for the Dragon Group at such a young age. It turns out you have the blood of the Lin family flowing in your body, the blood of a true powerhouse!"

"Master... then Lin Cangqiong is..." Mo Beixuan suddenly interrupted, his tone filled with disbelief and awe. His eyes flickered between Lin Han and Bai Zhentian, as if he had just realized a shocking fact.

"Lin Cangqiong..." Lin Han repeated the name softly, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. Lin Cangqiong, that is the most dazzling existence in his Lin family, a powerful man who is almost mythical, and also the great grandfather whom he has never met.

"That's right, Lin Cangqiong is my great-grandfather!" Lin Han's words were filled with both pride and a hint of inexplicable pressure. This name was legendary throughout the Xia Kingdom and even the world, a pinnacle that countless warriors looked up to.

Mo Beixuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this, clearly gaining a deeper understanding of Lin Han's identity. He bowed slightly in respect, his admiration for the powerful even stronger. "Master, your bloodline and glory are truly extraordinary. Master Lin Cangqiong's reputation is as brilliant as the stars, illuminating the entire martial arts world. I am deeply honored to learn of your identity today, and I am even more convinced that with you, no matter how critical the situation, it can be easily resolved."

"Senior Bai, I hope you can keep this secret for me. At least for now, I don't want to expose my identity too much to the public."

Lin Han's eyes grew deep, and his tone held a hint of pleading. He knew that as the eldest son of the Lin family, especially with such a deep connection to Lin Cangqiong, every move he made could cause a huge stir.

Bai Zhentian's expression grew serious upon hearing this. He patted Lin Han on the shoulder and said solemnly, "Advisor Lin, don't worry. I, Bai Zhentian, may be a rough man, but I also know what's important. I will keep your identity a secret. Moreover, I believe that with your ability and wisdom, you will be able to carve out a place for yourself in this world without relying on anyone else's reputation."

Lin Han smiled and nodded, then changed the subject and said, "Senior Bai, I just observed your fight with Abe Nakadichi and noticed that there seems to be something wrong with your swordsmanship. If you don't adjust it in time, I'm afraid it will affect your future cultivation."

"Ah?" Bai Zhentian was stunned at first, then a hint of surprise and anticipation flashed in his eyes. "Advisor Lin, what you said really hits the nail on the head. I've always felt that although my swordsmanship is strong, there's always something missing, and I've been frustrated by the lack of guidance. Since you can see the clues, you must have some insightful ideas. I hope you can enlighten me!"

"That's perfect. My sect has a book called 'Flowing Cloud Sword Technique'. Its essence lies in 'the sword turns at will, the mind follows the heart, the heart follows the will, flowing like clouds and water, no moves are better than moves.' Your swordsmanship is too strong and powerful, but lacks agility. It's precisely because of this lack of spontaneity and naturalness that I can teach you the core essence of this sword technique. Perhaps it will be of some help to you."

After saying that, he stretched out a finger and gently tapped Bai Zhentian's forehead. A warm and powerful stream of information instantly poured into Bai Zhentian's mind.

Bai Zhentian felt as if a flash of light exploded within his mind. Countless sword shadows intersected, each stroke imbued with the fundamental principles of heaven and earth, a move entirely unlike any swordsmanship he had previously learned. The profound mysteries of the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique suddenly opened his eyes. The rigidity and restraint of his previous swordsmanship seemed to dissipate instantly, replaced by an indescribable fluidity and freedom.
