The old man's side, a woman handed over a scroll of books.
"Yujing, you worked hard," Ye Moquan, old patriarch of the Ye Clan from Jinzhou, took the scroll and thanked the woman.
The woman was Lin Huan, current clan chief of the Forest Clan from Youzhou.
She wore a palace robe, her bearing dignified and elegant, features extraordinary; yet her complexion still revealed an unhealthy pallor, lacking the flush of an ordinary person.
Lin Huan gently shook her head, "What I can do now is limited, I can but offer what little strength I have."
Ye Moquan unfurled the scroll, "You have already been a great help to this old man, Yujing, henceforth rest as much as you can. The renewal of Youzhou's cultural pulse may be left to Jingyang and the others."
Lin Huan gazed upon the rebuilt ancestral lands of the Lin Clan before her, silent.
