On the main streets of the Left District, monks came and went.
Apart from their different expressions, everything else seemed just as bustling and lively as ever.
Because a guard team patrols this area every day to maintain its peace and stability.
After all, this place is the bustling center of the market, and it is impossible for it to lose even basic order.
Furthermore, the shops and chambers of commerce that can open on several main streets are basically backed by powerful forces, with cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage or even the Purple Mansion stage. Some, like the Golden Fate Pavilion, are backed by scions of aristocratic families.
"Hey, Master Lin, what brings you here?"
When Manager Chen saw Lin Xiuyuan walk in, he couldn't help but stand up to greet him.
"Manager Chen, I've come all this way specifically to seek your advice. Is it convenient for us to talk privately?" Lin Xiuyuan said, cupping his hands in greeting.
Upon seeing this, Manager Chen seemed to have guessed something, and immediately smiled slightly, making a request.
Upon arriving at the back hall, Manager Chen activated the soundproofing array, invited Lin Xiuyuan to sit down, and then said, "Congratulations, Master Lin, on breaking through to the late stage of Qi Refining! Your progress is truly rapid! It seems that Master Lin is not only a genius in the art of talismans, but also a genius in cultivation."
Manager Chen was somewhat surprised. In less than three years, he had reached the seventh level of Qi Refining. This cultivation speed was already quite fast.
Unexpectedly, this Lin Fu Master in front of me is not only a genius in the art of talismans, but also a genius in the art of cultivation?
"It was just luck. I was fortunate that my progress in talisman cultivation was faster, which gave me the resources to cultivate. I can't be called a genius."
Lin Xiuyuan shook his head.
These words were not meant to be modest. If it weren't for his high success rate in making talismans, which brought him profits several times higher than other talisman masters, allowing him to have a large amount of resources for cultivation, his speed would naturally be much faster.
Of course, his diligent cultivation also played a role; when his cultivation level was low, he would endure the pain brought by the 'Spirit Enhancement Pill' in order to increase his cultivation speed.
However, in the end, it was still thanks to the abundant resources provided by the talisman that Lin Xiuyuan was able to improve to this level, no matter how hard he worked.
"Master Lin is being modest. How come I don't see any other talisman masters with such a cultivation speed?" Manager Chen took it as mere modesty and had already held him in higher regard. Before Lin Xiuyuan could even ask the question, as if knowing what he was thinking, he continued, "Master Lin must have come to see that Steward Chen this time?"
Upon hearing this, a look of joy immediately appeared on Lin Xiuyuan's face. It seemed to be true!
He had already obtained the Foundation Establishment Pill. For him, the most important thing was for the storm to subside or for him to be able to leave Beihefang City.
"It seems that Manager Chen deserves credit for this. I am truly grateful to Manager Chen for helping me find such a way to escape. I am extremely grateful and will remember it forever."
After his initial excitement subsided, Lin Xiuyuan understood the deeper meaning behind the gesture and quickly rose to bow.
Lin Xiuyuan naturally didn't believe that his reputation as a genius in talismanic arts could spread beyond the besieged Beihefang City and reach thousands of miles away.
This Golden Edge Pavilion is merely the private property of that Chen family member, and has nothing to do with Steward Chen.
Therefore, the only possibility is that Manager Chen exerted his influence, either by contacting the outside world or by seeking an audience with Steward Chen.
Without a doubt, whatever the reason, it was Manager Chen who mediated the situation, which led to this escape!
"No, no, please sit down. I am a servant of the Chen family. I was just doing my duty and did not contribute anything. Master Lin thinks too highly of me."
Despite saying that, Manager Chen had a big smile on his face.
Seeing that Lin Xiuyuan was so 'savvy', he was very satisfied and happy.
He must have put in a lot of effort to get Miss to make these arrangements.
Looking back now, it was all worth it.
Lin Xiuyuan had already caught the young lady's eye by demonstrating his remarkable talent in talismanic arts.
Now, even more impressively, he has managed to create high-level talismans, surpassing his own level. Although it's only a minor level, it undoubtedly further confirms Lin Xiuyuan's remarkable talent in talisman-making.
Moreover, the fact that his cultivation level has improved so quickly shows that his talent for cultivation is also quite good.
Such a genius would be a key figure to be nurtured in any organization.
Bringing such a genius into the Chen family was undoubtedly a great achievement for him.
Therefore, obtaining a Foundation Establishment Pill is practically a sure thing!
Furthermore, a prodigy like Lin Xiuyuan will surely become a spirit talisman master and a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the future!
Making the other party owe a huge favor is undoubtedly well worth it. At least for now, there's no need to worry about Foundation Establishment Pills.
Cultivators of immortality value spiritual companions, resources, and environment. The word "companion" refers to a fellow Daoist, or fellow Daoist. The path to enlightenment is further guided by karmic connections; how little benefit can a good connection bring to one's cultivation?
"Speaking of which, did Manager Chen contact outsiders or ask Steward Chen for help?"
Lin Xiuyuan asked curiously.
"Yes, the message was sent out through the Thousand Mile Fragrance, which is why I had the courage to seek help from Deacon Chen."
Now that they consider Master Lin one of their own, Manager Chen didn't mince words.
Lin Xiuyuan's expression revealed his understanding, and he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does Manager Chen know what the current situation is like outside?"
Beihefang City has been holding out for almost two years, but no outside reinforcements have come.
Not to mention, even someone as formidable as Patriarch Jiang was injured, and quite seriously. The Nine Kingdoms Alliance would never abandon such a Nascent Soul Patriarch!
Countless people are speculating, and some are even convinced, that the situation outside is probably extremely bad, otherwise why would there be no reinforcements for so long!
