She hadn't originally planned to tell him these things, but since Magistrate Zhang was sincere, she didn't mind revealing some to him.
That way, even if he finds out more in the future, he will only think it's a power struggle within the imperial court and won't suspect his family.
When Magistrate Zhang heard Lin Jiujiu's words, his heart was already churning with emotions.
They've even linked this incident to Tantai Yueming.
He wondered if those assassins had been dealt with by the people he had left behind.
The more Magistrate Zhang thought about it, the more plausible it seemed, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
He seems to have learned some incredible secret. Will he still be able to survive?
The more he thought about it, the more flustered he became. Before he could even finish his tea, he hurriedly got up to say goodbye.
"Master Lin, Madam Lin, I have official business to attend to, so I will not disturb you any longer. Farewell."
This wasn't the first time Magistrate Zhang had addressed himself as "this humble official," and Lin Jiujiu was already used to it. However, her father still felt a little uncomfortable and quickly returned the greeting with a bow, seeing him off to the gate.
"Goodbye, Your Honor. We will not see you off."
Magistrate Zhang and his master returned the greeting with clasped hands before boarding the carriage.
After everyone left, Lin Jiujiu knew that this matter would not affect their family for the time being.
But the fact that Tantai Haoze was here could no longer be kept secret.
Her trip to the capital should also be put on the agenda.
So that evening, I told my family about it.
When Lin's mother heard that her daughter was about to leave, she immediately teared up and held onto her daughter's hand, reluctant to let go.
She even said, "Daughter, your father and older brother are fine at home. Why don't I go with you?"
Lin Jiujiu shook her head and patted her mother's large hand that was holding hers.
“Mother, there are many things to take care of in the capital this time. Even if you come with me, I’m afraid I won’t have time to spend with you.”
Furthermore, now that I've finished my business in the capital, I should also make a trip to the cultivation world. I'm afraid I won't have time to bring you back then.”
Lin's mother wanted to say that she could come back on her own; she just didn't want to be separated from her daughter so soon.
But Lin Jiujiu clearly wouldn't agree, not to mention whether she would feel at ease.
There are too many unknowns going on this trip to the capital, and it's somewhat inconvenient to bring Lin's mother along.
Seeing that Lin Jiujiu wouldn't nod no matter what she said, Lin's mother couldn't help but tear up.
Finally, Lin Jiujiu had no choice but to take out a magical artifact that resembled a bronze mirror from her spatial storage and infuse it with a wisp of her divine consciousness.
He placed it in Lin's mother's hand and said, "There is a trace of my divine consciousness in this. If you miss me, you can try to inject spiritual power into it. If it is convenient for me, I will meet with them."
Lin's mother held the magic mirror as if it were a treasure and immediately wanted to try it out.
Lin Jiujiu didn't stop her. Her mother poured spiritual energy into the cup, and she sensed it. She casually found a teacup with water, gently stroked the surface of the water, and established a connection with her mother.
Lin's mother could see her reflection in the water mirror. Because she used tea as a medium, the reflection wasn't very clear, but it was still barely visible.
When Lin's mother saw her daughter in the mirror, tears welled up in her eyes.
Because her spiritual power was limited, the spiritual power injected into the water mirror could only last for a short while before dissipating.
Lin's mother tried again, but the water mirror no longer responded.
She turned to look at Lin Jiujiu with some uncertainty.
Lin Jiujiu smiled and said, "Mother, your spiritual power is limited now. It's already the limit that you can maintain this for so long. Moreover, the further away I am from you, the greater the impact will be."
But as your cultivation level increases, this water mirror will last for a longer period of time.
Then, as if remembering something, he added.
"When I arrive in the world of cultivation, I may venture into some secret realms in search of opportunities. Some of these realms have spatial barriers, so you may not be able to contact me."
"But I'll sense when you've contacted me. I'll contact you again once I'm out of the secret realm. Just wait patiently."
Although Lin Jiujiu said that, her parents were not truly at ease.
Having experienced what happened in the past two days, they now understand just how dangerous the Immortal Realm is, but they also know that they have stopped her from moving forward.
Then all I can do is cultivate diligently, hoping that one day I can help her.
Lin's mother nodded with tears in her eyes, carefully putting the water mirror into her storage bag, afraid of losing it.
Lin Jiujiu comforted her mother, chatted with her eldest sister for a few minutes, and then spoke privately with her younger sister that evening.
Currently, she has the highest cultivation level in the family, and her talent and comprehension are also quite good.
The heavy responsibility of protecting her family could only fall on her shoulders.
This girl is good in every way, and she's quite cautious, but sometimes she's a little too impulsive.
Lin Jiujiu gave her a unique cultivation method suitable for her, and also gave her a specially made talisman.
"This is a teleportation talisman. It should only be used in the event of a major incident that could lead to the destruction of your family and the loss of your life. If such an event does occur, tear open this talisman and take as many people as you can with you to leave this place and find a place to hide."
This talisman contains a wisp of my divine soul. Once it's used, I'll sense it and, no matter where I am, I'll rush over to save you, understand?
Lin Jiujiu left this talisman as a precaution.
Unless it's an emergency, the Lin family can contact her using the water mirror.
The fact that they had to use this talisman meant that the situation had become so dire that they had no choice but to flee for their lives.
Lin Xiaomei solemnly accepted the items, but did not put them into the storage bag that Lin Jiujiu had given her.
Actually, Lin Jiujiu had discovered a long time ago that this girl had her own secret.
No one can find anything she hides.
Lin Jiujiu had also suspected that she, like herself, possessed a space within her, but she didn't pursue the matter further.
There's no need to know too much as long as it doesn't harm her.
Seeing that she had put her things away, Lin Jiujiu gave her a spatial bracelet.
The bracelet looked unremarkable, like an ordinary silver bracelet inlaid with some rubies and sapphires.
But in fact, it was Lin Jiujiu who refined it in her space these past few days.
Not only can it store items, but it can also withstand three attacks from a Nascent Soul cultivator. Most importantly, she engraved a hidden array on this bracelet, so as long as Lin Xiaomei doesn't take it off voluntarily, no one can see it.
When Lin Xiaomei saw such a beautiful bracelet, her eyes lit up.
"Second sister, is this beautiful bracelet for me?"
Lin Jiujiu nodded, "First, infuse some spiritual energy into it and establish a connection with it."
Lin Xiaomei did as instructed, and after establishing a connection with the bracelet, she couldn't wait to examine its contents.
Those bottles of pills looked incredibly spiritual, and there were also some books and jade slips, all surrounded by spiritual energy, clearly indicating their extraordinary nature.
Lin Xiaomei reached out to touch it, but Lin Jiujiu stopped her.
"Those cultivation techniques are for you to practice after you form your core. There's no benefit in looking at them now."
Although Lin Xiaomei is a bit impulsive, she still listens to advice.
