Chapter 52
Lin Qinghen did not wipe off the blood on his body. He even walked down from the platform at this moment and stood in the middle of the Discipline Hall. His tone also changed a lot and sounded much softer.
He didn't intend to hide anything at this moment, and directly gave the purpose of this thing in front of everyone.
"I know the Alchemist Association has this thing. You can't use it. I want to use it to open the Yin family's simulated training field."
The Alchemist Association certainly knew that they could not use it, but the Spirit Gathering Source Stone in the association was obtained by chance and was originally used to threaten the Yin family. It was one of the association's backup plans.
I didn't give it to Xu Yaoyang when I was working with him, thinking that I would seek greater benefits in the future.
But they hesitated for just a moment, and Lin Qinghen's expression and tone changed. He turned around and looked at them with that face, his hair still dripping with blood, and his black eyes seemed to be oozing with blood as well.
"Do you need to think so long? I don't have much patience," he said, "There is more than one Alchemist Association in Beizhou. If you are unwilling, the Yin family will go to the next few cities and I believe the exchange will be successful.
You should understand that I have been the one who made concessions to you and I, Lin Qinghen, am easy to talk to. Don’t be so arrogant.”
After he said this, Yin Hengxie, Yin Miao and Yu Yinyin's eyes all looked over at him.
The people from the Alchemist Association shuddered.
Indeed, the Yin family is no longer in chaos now. If these three Heavenly Ranks want to, the Yin family can destroy the Alchemist Association with their military strength alone.
Yin Hengxie's spiritual power is running low now, but the two capable priests of the Alchemist Association have been struggling for a whole day and the situation has not improved much. After both sides rest, the association will have no chance of winning.
"We naturally have no objection."
The association's priest took a deep breath and replied, "It's just that this matter is of great importance, and we priests can't make a decision. Wait a few days..."
Lin Qinghen narrowed his eyes.
"The association will come to your door in person tomorrow and give you a satisfactory answer," he changed his tone and replied through gritted teeth, "Madam Young Master, Young Master Lin, I also hope that we can have a pleasant cooperation."
"Personally?" Lin Qinghen asked again, "Is it President Mu Jiumu of the association who came to see me? He finally agreed to come and see me?"
"Yes," said the priest, "we will pay you a visit tomorrow morning."
He gritted his teeth and added, "If nothing unexpected happens, my association will not keep the Soul Gathering Source Stone for itself."
Now that things have gotten to this point, the Alchemist Association really needs to have a good talk with the Yin family.
"Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation."
Lin Qinghen returned very decently and seemed to be in a good mood.
After hearing their conversation, there was a brief silence in the audience, and then a small cheer seemed to be heard.
They were innocent children who could not help but feel happy when they heard the news that the simulated training ground was going to open. The older and more mature spiritual master of the Yin family did not cheer out loud, but the disbelief and surprise on his face were not fake.
The simulated training field is extremely important for cultivation, and all spiritual masters of the Yin family can benefit from it.
Even if some people didn't show it on their faces, they were actually very happy in their hearts. It was as if the Yin family, which had been going downhill all the way, suddenly had a little hope of moving forward, and they couldn't help but be happy.
That's a simulated training ground.
As a result, everyone's attitude towards Lin Qinghen became complicated.
Whether this person really wants to do good for the Yin family or is just venting his anger, there is no need to say more, just wait and see what he does.
Regardless of how one speculates, based on Lin Qinghen's transaction with the Alchemist Association, no one in the Yin family would or dared to touch Lin Qinghen at this critical juncture. Instead, they would be afraid that something might go wrong with him.
No matter what, the day of chaos for the Yin family has finally passed.
Lin Qinghen also handled today's follow-up. He always did things from beginning to end. Yin Hengxie and Yin Miao's intentions were very clear, and their subordinates did not dare to disobey them now.
They did whatever Lin Qinghen said and did not dare to raise any objection. They were very obedient.
Send the injured or half-dead youngsters back to recuperate, then send everyone here back, and then clean up the Discipline Hall.
Everything was in order. This was the first time that the Yin family was so orderly.
Elder Ye, who had been hiding, shuddered when he saw Lin Qinghen when he quietly left.
He just felt that this person's eyes were always on him until they left the Discipline Hall. That half-smiling look in his eyes seemed to still be stuck on his back.
"He can't run away either. He's not a good guy either. We just didn't count him today."
Lin Qinghen murmured.
There are still many things to do in the next two days. Lin Qinghen has always been able to distinguish priorities, so he will put this unimportant person aside for the time being. But he knows that no one who is not honest and obedient will escape.
No one can get what he wants by luck.
After some tidying up, almost everyone had left and the night began to fall.
Lin Qinghen was now standing alone in the center of the Discipline Hall. He seemed to be thinking about something with his head down, and no one dared to disturb him.
Yin Jiuxiao had been following him. After he came down, Yin Hengxie pulled him aside and asked him a few questions. He probably apologized, saying that he had not done well before and hoped that he could forgive him. He also spoke vaguely about his father and elder brother, and his mood was very unstable.
But Yin Hengxie was holding on. His spiritual power had already reached its limit, and with his excitement, he soon couldn't hold on any longer.
After cleaning up the place, Yin Hengxie fainted and was taken away by Yin Miao.
In fact, Yin Jiuxiao no longer cared about his uncle's apology. He had experienced too much and the past was no longer important.
The most important person in his eyes now is only Lin Qinghen.
The Discipline Hall, which had been bustling all day, was now empty. Yu Yinyin had been in a tense state all day and was just a little more relaxed now. She had experienced many storms before, but had never seen someone like Lin Qinghen.
"Fortune and honor are sought through risk," Lin Qinghen said when he communicated with her earlier, his eyes firm, "I have to take a gamble, and I have no other choice."
Now it seems that Lin Qinghen had made his predictions correctly, and every step was developing as he expected.
He spent the day facing everyone's mad gazes, until he gradually got what he wanted.
Yu Yinyin was frightened by him, not to mention that there was another person present.
Lin Yunsi, who was brought here, has never been able to calm down from the beginning until now.
Where did this Lin Qinghen come from? He was not like this at all in the Lin family!
Especially Lin Qinghen, who was in a daze now, standing there when it had already darkened, with blood still dripping from his hair and body.
Obviously, the place had been cleaned up, but he was still there. With a slight movement, the blood drops fell to the ground and spread on the ground like blood-sucking worms.
Lin Yunsi didn't dare to run, didn't dare to move, he didn't even dare to breathe. It just so happened that Yin Jiuxiao was standing not far from him at this time. This man was not clean either, but at least he was simply cleaned up by Lin Qinghen, and he looked much better and not so bloody.
Lin Yunsi heard the other party speak, as if talking to himself.
"Lin Qinghen, Qinghen, he is so..."
It's so scary, isn't it? Even though this blind man can't see, he can feel that he is a devil, right?
But Yin Jiuxiao's next words in a very low voice made him even more horrified, and he wanted to faint on the spot.
“He’s so cute.”
Lin Qinghen, who planned all this, actually didn't have anything in his mind. Yin Jiuxiao could see that his hands were shaking slightly.
It was the first time I did something like this. Watching them strategize and plan every step carefully, I was actually a little scared.
Just like myself in my previous life, I was like this when I took the first step. I was fearless while doing it, and even became more and more courageous. But after I finished it and looked back on it all, my hands were indeed shaking.
No matter what Lin Qinghen felt, this was the first time he did something so inhumane and cruel. He did not regret it and felt that he had done nothing wrong, but he still needed to calm down.
But Yin Jiuxiao was still "blind", and it was not logical for him to go up and grab the person, so Lin Qinghen, who was in a daze, finally heard the other party calling him.
It seemed to have been calling for a long time.
Lin Qinghen stood there for a while before slowly walking forward to find him, but what he didn't expect was that the moment Yin Jiuxiao felt him approaching, he took the initiative to take a step forward and pulled him into his arms.
They could smell each other's blood.
"Thank you Qinghen for helping me vent my anger," Yin Jiuxiao comforted him, patting his back again and again, just like before on the bed, "Don't be afraid, Qinghen, don't be afraid, you did the right thing."
Lin Qinghen slowly let out a long breath in his arms.
"Don't you think I'm scary?"
He asked the other party word by word.
"I don't think so." Yin Jiuxiao shook his head. "Qinghen is the best."
It turns out that the entire Yin family is hopeless in Yin Jiuxiao's eyes. It doesn't matter if Lin Qinghen messes around. If he can find a glimmer of hope, he will be lucky.
Moreover, Yin Jiuxiao could not feel Lin Qinghen's feelings for him any more clearly.
The grievances that Yin Jiuxiao suffered in the Yin family seemed to be smoothed out by the other world.
Lin Qinghen thought that perhaps because he couldn't see, Yin Jiuxiao's feelings were greatly weakened. He didn't know how scary he was, but he was still comforted by these words.
It's good enough that he understands, it's good enough that there is someone who understands him.
Even if he only considers Yin Jiuxiao, it makes sense for him to do this.
Yin Jiuxiao could feel Lin Qinghen's body tense for a moment, then gradually relaxed.
"Let's go," Lin Qinghen said, pulling his hand again, "Go back and rest."
He was indeed tired today.
The Yin family does have a few smart people. Yin Miao has good vision. In just a short while, he cleaned up two extra rooms in Yin Jiuxiao's small courtyard for Yu Yinyin and Lin Yunsi.
And it was the first time that the bathing pool in the yard was cleaned and filled with water, so Lin Qinghen and Yin Jiuxiao really had to clean it up.
The bathtub is big enough to accommodate two people.
Yin Jiuxiao didn't have any broken hands or feet, so he could do the daily cleaning by himself. Lin Qinghen could only help him tidy up the front and back.
It was because of this that Lin Qinghen knew about some of the wounds on his body, which was why he was so organized when questioning him on the spot today.
Only now did they speak honestly to each other. Putting aside their so-called romantic thoughts, Yin Jiuxiao discovered that Lin Qinghen also had a lot of wounds on his body, at least no less than his.
There were more than one whip marks on his arms, burn marks on his calves, and dense, thin scars on his back. No one knew what had caused them. The most serious one was a scar on his waist, which looked like a piece of flesh had been dug out by a knife.
This is how Lin Qinghen has lived to this day. What he experienced in the Lin family was not much better than what Yin Jiuxiao experienced at that time.
He was vicious today, firstly because he had a grudge to take revenge for a reason, and secondly, he wanted to help the Yin family, which had been in chaos for a long time, to stand up again. Lin Qinghen was not crazy at all, nor was he an evil ghost. The unreasonable malice he had experienced before was much more painful than this.
When Yin Jiuxiao looked at those things, his heart suddenly tightened.
But he couldn't say anything.
There is no point in saying a few meaningless words about these excessive scars at this moment. When Lin Qinghen saw the scars on his body before, he would not say a word of comfort, and would not even ask such a question.
The real comfort is to prevent such things from happening again with your own hands.
One day, I will avenge the Lin family for him.
Yin Jiuxiao made such a vow to himself.
But Yin Jiuxiao, who has not yet grown to the point of looking down on the world, just follows Lin Qinghen's wishes and tries to be a considerate person, trying to make him feel more comfortable at the moment.
There was blood in Lin Qinghen's hair, so Yin Jiuxiao reached out and helped him clean it up bit by bit. He did it very carefully and slowly, as if he was taking care of a treasure that would break if touched.
Lin Qinghen thought he was slow because he couldn't see, but Yin Jiuxiao's hands were gentle and he combed her hair slowly which felt quite comfortable, so she let him do it.
Lin Qinghen really needs to relax.
He saw the blood color on his body fade away, and the water in the pool was dyed red.
Neither of them spoke for a while, and fell into silence tacitly.
When the smell of blood on his body was gradually washed away, Lin Qinghen heard Yin Jiuxiao ask a question. This was the first time he asked him a question in this period of time.
"In fact, the Yin family has not treated you well. Since you came here, you have not received any benefits from this place. You have only been wronged," he said. "Qinghen, why do you think the Yin family can be saved?"
Lin Qinghen instigated Yin Hengxie to use the Alchemist Association to kill Xu Yaoyang...
Yin Jiuxiao could have predicted all of this, and if he were there, he would have done the same.
But exchanging the Spirit Source Stone with the Alchemist Association would obviously help the Yin family, and the benefits to Lin Qinghen and Die Meng would be zero.
Even if Lin Qinghen did not exchange this thing, with today's situation, he has reached a cooperation with the Alchemist Association, and he also has Die Meng under his command, controlling the lifeline of the medicine supply in Tear City. In the future, he will be able to call the shots in the Yin family and no one will dare to mess with him.
This step showed that Lin Qinghen was thinking differently.
