Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 264: Chapter 248: Delivering the Pill

However, before Lin Jing could speak, Elder Master Li was already growing restless.

“Hey…!”

“Old Wang, that’s not very honorable of you…”

“Even if you wanted to poach someone, you could’ve at least been discreet. Now look at you, making your move right in front of my face.”

Elder Wang turned his head and gave Elder Master Li a sly smile:

“Heh heh…”

“I couldn’t help it when I saw such a promising youngster, I was itching to act…”

“You surely know my situation; each of my registered disciples is more stupid than the last. I’ve taught them for so long, yet not a single one has advanced to a third-grade Pill Master.”

“Just let Lin Jing follow me, and I guarantee that within ten years, he will certainly advance to a third-grade Pill Master.”

After Elder Wang finished speaking, the corner of Elder Master Li’s mouth twitched, and then he said:

“He already has a master, you’re too late.”

Upon hearing this, Elder Wang didn’t give up but instead said with a smile:

“That doesn’t matter…”

“I’m not forcing him, just letting him make his own choice.”

In response, Elder Master Li could only glare at Elder Wang before falling silent.

“Kid, have you considered my offer?”

Lin Jing hesitated for a moment and then, bowing, replied to Elder Wang:

“Thank you for your generous offer, Elder Wang, but I’ve already grown accustomed to life down the mountain and have no wish to leave it for now.”

Lin Jing’s words were very tactful.

However.

That was enough, and Elder Wang would surely understand his meaning.

After Lin Jing had spoken, Elder Wang shook his head and sighed:

“Alas!”

“Indeed, one must not insist upon what fate does not grant…”

After that, he didn’t bring up the matter again.

Then, Elder Wang asked Lin Jing about the conflict between him and Liu Yiyuan in the Spirit Cleansing Grounds.

Many had witnessed the event, so there was no room for falsehood, and Lin Jing narrated the incident at the Spirit Cleansing Grounds to Elder Wang truthfully.

Elder Wang nodded after listening.

Afterward, he asked Lin Jing about what happened after he was transported out.

Lin Jing was well-prepared for this, so he didn’t show any gaps in his story.

After the questioning, Elder Wang let Lin Jing go away.

Lin Jing bid farewell to the two of them, then left the courtyard.

“Lin Daoyou…”

Just as he stepped out of the courtyard, someone called out to him.

Lin Jing then turned his head towards the direction of the sound.

He saw that the person calling him was the Qingyuan Sword Sect disciple who had led him here.

Surprised to see this person here, Lin Jing still walked over.

“May I know why you’ve stopped me, Daoyou?”

Lin Jing approached him and asked.

The man gave a fist and palm salute, then spoke to Lin Jing:

“Lin Daoyou, I’ve been entrusted by Han Jing, Senior Han, to wait for you here, wishing to invite you over for a chat.”

Upon hearing it was Senior Han, Lin Jing immediately let down his guard.

Since his return, he hadn’t seen Senior Han yet, and now the timing was perfect.

He then said to the Qingyuan Sword Sect disciple:

“So, it’s Senior Han. I, too, wish to see him…”

“May I trouble you to lead the way?”

“Of course, please follow me.”

After speaking, the man led the way, escorting Lin Jing into the depths of Fang Market.

Before long.

The Qingyuan Sword Sect disciple led Lin Jing to a courtyard that wasn’t very large.

No sooner had the two entered than Senior Han came out to greet them.

“Senior Han…”

Lin Jing was very happy to see Senior Han.

“It’s truly wonderful that you’re unharmed.”

Senior Han sized up Lin Jing and then spoke.

“I was somewhat worried when you didn’t return. Now that I see you’re safe, I can rest at ease.”

“You must have been transported quite far to have been delayed so long in returning, no?”

Lin Jing nodded, then asked Han Jing:

“Yes, the place where I was transported was indeed not near here. How about you, Senior Han?”

Han Jing replied:

“I was fine. When I was transported out, I wasn’t far from Fang Market. It took just half a day for me to return.”

“Come, let’s go inside…”

Subsequently, the three of them entered the house together.

Once inside, Senior Han first introduced the two to each other.

Only then did Lin Jing learn that the Qingyuan Sword Sect disciple who had brought him here was named Chen Xing.

This man was exceedingly close to Senior Han.

After the introductions, the two were now acquainted.

Afterward.

Senior Han asked Lin Jing about what happened after he came out.

Having anticipated this conversation, Lin Jing took out the set of excuses he had used with Elder Wang earlier.

After the explanation, they engaged in a bit of small talk.

Suddenly, Senior Han fell into contemplation for a moment, then he said to Lin Jing:

“Lin Junior Brother, to tell you the truth, I asked you to come here because there’s a favor I need to ask of you.”

Lin Jing was initially startled, then spoke to Senior Han:

“May I know what you need my help with, Senior Han?”

Senior Han had always been kind to him and had helped him on several occasions. As long as it was within his ability, Lin Jing would definitely try his best to help him.

“It’s actually not a difficult matter…” Senior Han spoke up.

“You must be aware of the Elixir Valley Heir, living down at Nanshan Immortal City.”

“Actually, I just want you to help me find the Elixir Valley Heir…”

“The Elixir Valley Heir?”

The words of Senior Han shocked Lin Jing for a moment before he quickly composed himself and eagerly said:

“Uh…”

“Yes, I indeed know of the Elixir Valley Heir.”

“Do you need the Elixir Valley Heir for something, Senior Han?”

After Lin Jing finished speaking, Han Jing started to explain:

“Well, the Sect’s competition for disciples is about to start, isn’t it?”

“I want to use this opportunity to make another breakthrough, aiming to leap into the top three and become a core disciple of the Sect.”
