Shang Lin was still worried, so he continued to use the Thousand-Mile Tracking Technique to send Hu Tangdi to investigate Old Man Chai's situation. If his cultivation level were higher now, he would also go with him.

Because Hu Tangdi was not there, Ji Xiaoyao went out of the tower to serve as Shang Lin's guard, but Shang Lin could not rest peacefully until Hu Tangdi returned tonight.

If one cultivates while waiting, well, is cultivating under such circumstances a recipe for qi deviation? So, in order to avoid waiting in vain, Shang Lin released Xing Tian as well. There was no other reason than to write down the things their sect currently needed to do.

Xing Tian had written a business plan, but he didn't know exactly what Yuntai Sect wanted to do, so he naturally didn't know where to begin. Of course, he did have many opinions and suggestions about making money.

However, Shang Lin said, "The sect is involved in many things, so let's proceed step by step according to the plan. The cultivation matters are handled by the Divine Lord, and we need to break down the money-making matters into smaller steps."

Xing Tian, ​​whose mind was full of business ideas, immediately perked up when he heard Shang Lin's question. "Master, how should we segment the market? Should we do deep processing of the products?"

Shang Lin was somewhat helpless about Xing Tian calling him "master" so casually, as he hadn't agreed to it yet. However, he didn't mind. "We can't do deep processing of products yet. I want to increase our income channels, such as the cost-effective fruits and vegetables you mentioned before, as well as whitening and spot-fading products. This is a bit troublesome to do, and we need to think of a better sales method."

Xing Tian twirled a pen with his finger. "Actually, the most profitable thing right now is live streaming, but we don't even have a mobile phone. If my account is still there... well, it's unusable now, and it would be troublesome if it scared people."

Shang Lin had a very positive attitude. "It will be available soon. After the next batch of mountain products is sold, I should be able to buy a mobile phone. Write down some cost-effective fruits and vegetables, and I'll find an opportunity to buy seeds or saplings to transplant into the Dragon Spirit Tower."

"good."

Having dumped the work on Xing Tian, ​​Shang Lin had nothing to do again. Looking at Ji Xiaoyao, who stood by the door as tall and straight as a pine tree, he suddenly asked, "The general must have used a gun when he was alive, right?"

Ji Xiaoyao paused, then said, "Yes, but the gun is broken."

This result was similar to what Shang Lin had expected. "So, do you still want to use a gun?"

"It doesn't matter, I don't have to fight on the front lines now."

Shang Lin nodded. "Indeed, cultivators mostly use swords. You will also be moving up in the future. How about I teach you the Seventy-Two Sword Techniques of the Yuntai Sect now?"

“...I have a master.”

"Ah, I forgot about that. But I am now the sect master of Yuntai Sect, and you are already a disciple of Yuntai Sect. Will you learn it or not? The Divine Lord doesn't know these things. His cultivation methods are more suitable for demon cultivators."

Ji Xiaoyao, "..."

Shang Lin suddenly laughed, "Fine, I'll practice my own. Whether you watch or learn is up to you."

The ancients' thinking was truly outdated. Social status is sometimes unimportant, but everyone has their own principles, and Shang Lin wouldn't say anything about it.

Hearing their conversation, Xing Tian put down his pen and hurriedly came over, saying, "Master, I want to learn. Will you teach me?"

Shang Lin immediately poured cold water on the idea, saying, "You can't learn it. From now on, you just need to focus on making money for the sect."

"Why?" Xing Tian immediately wilted. "He may be powerful, but he's still a ghost, just like me."

Shang Lin found it somewhat amusing, but also a little helpless. This was the kind of situation where you can't get what you want, and you don't want what you have! So he could only explain, "Different people have different aptitudes, so naturally they learn different things, just like everyone is different."

Xing Tian understood what he was saying, but he was still unwilling to give up. "If I don't learn it, how will I protect myself in the future? What if I encounter danger?"

"Of course you should learn, but you should learn differently from Ji Xiaoyao."

"Okay." Xing Tian was fully recharged. "Then can I watch Master practice swordsmanship?"

"Sure." Shang Lin extended his hand to Ji Xiaoyao. "May I borrow your sword?"

Ji Xiaoyao looked at Shang Lin and said, "My sword might have an effect on your body."

"Alright." Shang Lin went straight to the yard and found a tree branch. He was being a bit presumptuous; Ji Xiaoyao's black sword was too sinister, and he really couldn't touch it right now.

With the tree branch in his hand, Shang Lin felt as if he were holding his own spiritual sword. Unfortunately, he could only use the sword moves and couldn't unleash any power.

However, he couldn't unleash his full power in his own yard, or his family would be wiped out. If it were his former self, his entire village would be destroyed. Shang Lin composed himself for a moment before raising his arm…

Shang Lin's sword dance was a bit slow. It was unclear whether he did it on purpose or if it was just how the sword technique was. But as the saying goes, the layman sees the spectacle, while the expert sees the details.

Xing Tian found his master's sword dance particularly pleasing to the eye, but Ji Xiaoyao's expression grew increasingly serious. The Yuntai Sect's sword technique seemed harmless, but in reality, it was full of hidden dangers. One could easily lose one's life under the sword if one was not careful. Moreover, this seventy-two sword technique was obviously not just seventy-two moves, but contained thousands of ever-changing moves.

Although I have been on the battlefield for a long time, compared with this, what I have learned and know is only a bit more about the spirit of being able to protect myself and kill the enemy in the midst of chaos. If it comes to fighting alone, I still have a lot to learn.

However, Shang Lin overestimated his physical condition. He had to stop before he could even finish half of the sword technique. "Never mind, I'll do it later."

Xing Tian immediately floated to Shang Lin's side, "Master, can't I really learn this? It's so cool."

Shang Lin wanted to say, "From what angle do you see it as cool? My moves are just weak and ineffective."

But the next second Hu Tangdi appeared, looking every bit like a celestial being descended to earth. Of course, this had to be ignored, as her face lacked any sense of dignity, no, righteousness.

Shang Lin looked at Hu Tangdi with a headache, "What are you doing? Are you showing off like a peacock? What if the villagers see you?"

Hu Tangdi swayed gracefully to Shang Lin. "Sect Master, rest assured, I used an illusion technique. Ordinary people can't see me." After saying that, she looked at Ji Xiaoyao and Xing Tian. "Why are you both outside?"

Seeing the hook-like look in Hu Tangdi's eyes as he gazed at Ji Xiaoyao, Shang Lin felt somewhat helpless. "Have you found my godfather yet?"

Hu Tangdi immediately looked away from Shang Lin and said, "I found him. He's staying in a small hotel to recover from his injuries. I guess he's afraid you'll worry, or he doesn't want you to know."

Shang Lin was a little anxious, "Is he badly injured?"

"I seem to be doing well, and I should be able to come back tomorrow."

Shang Lin waved his hand, "You all go back and rest, I'm going to sleep too."

Xing Tian hurriedly handed the fruit and vegetable list he had written to Shang Lin, and also advised, "Don't think too much about it, and don't worry too much. You two will eventually separate. I'm going back now."

"Um."

In fact, Shang Lin was worried about Old Man Chai, but he was more worried about the original owner of the body, or rather, himself. He felt that there might be a lot he didn't know, and that it might be a bit serious.

However, he was indeed very tired today, so Shang Lin lay down to sleep. In any case, good health was the most important thing for him right now.
