Shang Jing was a little dumbfounded, and after a while, he asked, "As souls, can we still eat things that have a physical form?"
Shang Jing's reaction was the same as Lan Xuan's when he first received the pills from Shang Lin, so as someone who had been through it, he said with certainty, "Since it was given by Sect Master Shang, it is naturally safe to eat."
Shang Jing looked at Lan Xuan with great confusion, "You seem to trust my brother a lot and have a very good impression of him."
"Well, if you really think about it, the reason I was able to work here and recover so quickly is all because of Sect Master Shang. Otherwise, I don't even know if I would still be here."
Shang Jing, "..."
It seems my younger brother is living a good life somewhere they don't know about. No wonder we haven't been able to find him all these years. But what kind of place is Yuntai Sect? How did he become the sect leader? If I remember correctly, Shang Lin is only sixteen, right?
Shang Jing felt that this younger brother was a completely mysterious person. He didn't understand him at all. Well, they had only met a few times. It would be strange if he could understand him. If he couldn't follow Situ Pojun in the future, following his younger brother would be fine too.
Shang Lin left the nursing home to pick up Fan Mingyu, but the location sent by the other party was not his home, but a hair salon. Looking at the handsome young man who was dressed up and looked good, Shang Lin wondered if he was too sloppy.
Even so, Fan Mingyu still asked with great uncertainty, "Will this work?"
Shang Lin pointed to himself, "You can tell whether it works or not just by looking at me."
"Can you compare yourself to me? You're a leader, and your subordinates will fawn over you no matter what you look like. I'm just a new employee; first impressions are very important, okay?"
Shang Lin smiled and reminded him, "More important than that, I think you need courage, after all, our sect is a bit special."
Fan Mingyu was puzzled. "What do you mean?"
"Well..." Shang Lin hesitated for a moment before saying, "Our sect mainly focuses on making money and maintaining health. I don't need to explain how we make money. As for maintaining health, some of our disciples are older and have slightly unusual appearances."
Fan Mingyu was a little dumbfounded, "What do you mean by 'looking a little strange'? Does it mean you don't look like a human?"
"No, we are all human, it's just that our eye color is a little different from that of ordinary humans. Just think of it as them wearing colored contact lenses."
"Eye color?" Fan Mingyu suddenly became interested. "What colors are there?"
Shang Lin, "..."
Why did he sense that the child was a little eager to try? Well, that's fine, so he won't be frightened when he sees the gatekeeper. However, "My godfather was injured before, and although he's recovered, he's had some memory problems. When you see him in a little while, just act like you're seeing him for the first time."
Fan Mingyu was taken aback. "What do you mean? My godfather has memory problems? Then how is my family's company operating normally?"
Shang Lin said quite naturally, "It was taken over by someone else in our group. His name is Xing Tian, and he's a top student. You'll see him in a bit."
Fan Mingyu, “…”
Something felt off, but he didn't ask any more questions. He figured he'd figure it out when he saw the person.
When Shang Lin and Fan Mingyu arrived at Xing Tian's rented bungalow, She Jinxing and Old Man Chai had just arrived as well. The four of them happened to meet at the door, as if they had arranged it beforehand. No, even if they had arranged it, the timing wouldn't have been so precise.
Shang Lin and She Jinxing subconsciously used their divine sense to explore the house. Hu Tangdi and Huang Ying were already frying and cooking. The Divine Lord, dressed in a flowing white robe, sat on the sofa with an air of otherworldly elegance, looking as if he could ascend to heaven on the spot.
Xing Tian watched in amazement, then sat down next to him and asked in a very obsequious manner, "Divine Lord, were you like this in your past life?"
The deity raised his slightly gray eyes. "In my past life, I was much more glamorous than this. You probably don't know that we dragons love shiny things. Even when I'm dressed in white, I'm still shiny. Unfortunately, after following Shang Lin, he's so poor that he can barely afford to eat. Where would he get me to buy shiny things?"
Shang Lin, who has excellent hearing, twitched at the corner of his mouth, but still said to Fan Mingyu and Old Man Chai, "Let's go in."
Fan Mingyu glanced at Old Man Chai and, seeing that he indeed didn't recognize him, really wanted to ask Shang Lin, "Isn't your godfather supposed to have bad eyesight? How come his eyesight is better, but his mind isn't?"
However, this was clearly not the time to talk, so he followed behind Shang Lin and was the last to enter the courtyard. Then he discovered another problem: this place was a bit too close to their company.
She Jin walked at the front and said as soon as she entered, "The sect leader has brought the people."
Xing Tian immediately sat down on the single sofa, and Shenjun also sat up a little more upright. Huang Li and Chi Xie, who were playing games in the bedroom, hurriedly came out. They were both very curious about how this little kid, Fan Mingyu, had caught their sect leader's eye.
As soon as Old Man Chai and Fan Mingyu entered the house, they were both taken aback. It wasn't that they saw anything terrifying, but rather that there were a lot of people in the house, and what was with the little boy?
Fan Mingyu subconsciously looked at Shang Lin, "Whose child is this?"
Shang Lin smiled and replied in a low voice, "Naturally, it belongs to our sect."
Fan Mingyu really wanted to ask, "You're taking in such a young child?! What's so special about him?"
As soon as Hu Tangdi saw Shang Lin, he said, "Everyone's here, let's eat."
She Jinxing strode towards the kitchen, "I'll help."
In no time, everyone sprang into action, and within ten minutes they were all sitting at the table. The large round table was piled high with food, so much so that it didn't look like ten people could finish it all.
The only drinks available were freshly squeezed juice. There was no beer, liquor, or wine, not even a drop. If they were all minors, it wouldn't be strange that there was no alcohol, but with so many adults, it seems a bit illogical that they didn't drink a drop.
Fan Mingyu wondered, "Could it be that the Yuntai Sect has banned alcohol?"
The next second, Shang Lin said, "Although this is our first gathering, our Yuntai Sect prohibits alcohol."
Fan Mingyu subconsciously asked Shang Lin, "Can this really be banned? There will always be times when drinking is necessary, such as when discussing business, it's unavoidable."
Shang Lin smiled, "They can do it, you can try your best."
After saying that, he began to introduce, "You all know my godfather, Chai Rongjin, right? This tall and handsome young man, Fan Mingyu, is our sect's newly recruited junior brother. He is young, so you all have to protect him."
Fan Mingyu felt a little embarrassed, and his face involuntarily turned slightly red. He subconsciously said, "Hello everyone."
Everyone present today, except for the God-King who is somewhat different from others, is no different from ordinary humans. However, when Fan Mingyu looked at the God-King, he was only surprised, the kind of amazed astonishment that comes from heaven, and he didn't feel anything else.
On the contrary, Old Man Chai felt that these people were not ordinary people. However, considering that Shang Lin was extraordinary, it was normal for the people around him to be extraordinary as well.
