The next day, after breakfast, Shang Lin received a call from Lin Yu, who said, "Sect Leader Shang, I'm leaving. See you again someday."
"You're back so soon?"
"Well, there are many things to do in the sect, so I'd better go back as soon as possible."
"Alright."
There are indeed many things to consider. We don't know how long it will take for Sect Leader Liu to recover. Lin Yu will inevitably have to share some of the burden.
"Goodbye, Sect Master Shang."
"goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, Shang Lin said with a slight sigh, "Not all reclusive sects want to engage with the world! But they have no choice but to stay out of it. It's a very contradictory thing to develop and grow steadily in the long term."
She Jinxing, who had just finished washing the dishes, also sighed, "There's no such thing as having it all!"
"Yes!" Shang Lin laughed again, "So, our Yuntai Sect should just go with the flow! What about Xing Tian?"
She Jinxing immediately laughed and said, "Him? He's busy discussing novels with Ah Chou, and they seem to be kindred spirits."
Shang Lin subconsciously touched his chin. "Is the magic of novels that great? It made Xing Tian, who was tutoring me, lose track of time?"
"Perhaps... it's not the magic of novels, but the passion in one's heart for something, and when you happen to meet someone who shares the same interests and you have a great conversation, it's naturally very exciting."
Shang Lin nodded in agreement, but said, "There might be an even more important reason that will improve Ah Chou's cultivation."
"Yes, indeed, that is the greatest driving force. If the sect leader wants to tutor, he should call Xing Tian."
Shang Lin suddenly looked at She Jinxing with amusement and asked, "Aren't you a little envious of Ah Chou? That night of the Blood Moon, it was clearly a crisis, but he turned misfortune into blessing."
She Jinxing paused for a moment, then nodded honestly, "I am indeed a little envious, but everyone has their own destiny. My destiny was the moment I met the sect leader, so naturally I dare not ask for anything else, otherwise my Dao heart would be unstable and it would affect my cultivation."
Shang Lin was taken aback, then smiled and said, "It's good that you can see things clearly. The lifespan of demon cultivators is longer than that of humans, and they are also more prone to developing inner demons. The tribulation of advancement is certainly terrifying, but inner demons are even more terrifying. I hope that all my disciples who enter my sect can live a long and healthy life."
She Jinxing felt a warmth in his heart. He knew that Shang Lin's words were not empty words, but rather the most sincere ones. However, in the long lifespan of the demon race, they would face countless temptations and obsessions. If they were not firm enough, they would develop inner demons.
Especially when one's cultivation level increases but progress becomes slower and more difficult, inner demons are more likely to take advantage of the situation. However, She Jinxing believed that as long as he was by the sect leader's side, he would not develop inner demons.
At this moment, Xing Tian came out of the tower. Looking at it, it really did look a bit like a ghost. Shang Lin subconsciously asked, "What happened to you? Did you finish your Soul-Stabilizing Pill?"
"No." Xing Tian yawned repeatedly. "Why would I need to take the Soul-Stabilizing Pill?"
Shang Lin pointed towards the bathroom, "Do you want to go look in the mirror?"
Xing Tian stared blankly at Shang Lin, then at She Jinxing, before finally heading to the bathroom. As soon as he entered, he exclaimed in surprise, "What the hell?! I'm in the Dragon Spirit Tower, how did I end up like this?"
Xing Tian quickly returned to Shang Lin's side, "Sigh, it's all because Ah Chou can talk too much. We talked all night long, reluctant to part, and evenly matched. We were practically locked in a sword-fighting contest!"
Shang Lin glanced at She Jinxing subconsciously, clearly asking, "Is this guy possessed? He's talking incoherently and doesn't know what he's saying!"
She Jinxing smiled at Shang Lin, then looked at Xing Tian and asked, "That's true, but you've only had one night, isn't it a bit of an exaggeration to have achieved this?"
Xing Tian pondered, "Indeed, it's a bit of an exaggeration. So, is it because I didn't cultivate seriously and only relied on the Soul-Stabilizing Pill and the Soul-Nourishing Pill?"
She Jinxing nodded, "Perhaps, but you are very busy every day, and you have very little time to cultivate. You also don't have any ghost cultivators with you, so you can only rely on Soul-Stabilizing Pills and Soul-Nourishing Pills."
Shang Lin echoed, "Yes! It's a pity that among the ghost cultivators in our sect, only Ji Xiaoyao remains. He is also devoted to Qiu Niang, so he won't come back unless absolutely necessary!"
Xing Tian smiled awkwardly, "No need, General Ji. I will definitely make time to cultivate in the future. I don't expect to catch up with General Ji, but I can't be as useless as I am now."
Shang Lin smiled and said, "Alright, you have the day off today, I'll go take a look over there."
"The sect leader isn't giving extra lessons anymore?"
Shang Lin nodded, and Xing Tian said apologetically, "I didn't expect this time. I will definitely be more careful next time and never delay the sect leader's affairs."
"It's alright, I didn't expect it either." Shang Lin then said to She Jinxing, "Take me over there to take a look."
"good."
Since the establishment of the studio under the Yuntai Sect, Shang Lin has not come here yet! In fact, not only him, but even She Jinxing has not come many times, and when he does come, it is usually in a hurry.
Xing Tian originally wanted to accompany him, but in his current terrible state, he really wasn't fit to be seen by anyone. He'd better rest in the Dragon Spirit Tower before coming out. As for taking the Soul-Stabilizing Pill...
Heh, was that pill he was eating? He was clearly eating money, the sect leader's spiritual energy from refining pills, and the time he wasted.
Moreover, as the name suggests, the Soul-Stabilizing Pill only stabilizes the soul and does not help increase cultivation in the slightest. It's best to take it only when needed.
Although it's the weekend, everyone in the studio is still working. As for rest—they all take turns. Otherwise, how many works could they produce? And this is the treatment of human employees; non-human employees don't have any days off at all.
When Shang Lin and She Jinxing arrived, they were filming the daily life of the general and his wife, as well as Huang Ying's food videos.
The scene was bustling with activity, with employees performing their respective duties—some lighting, some cameramen—all focused on their work, creating a feeling reminiscent of filming a movie or TV series.
The general of Chi Xie and the general's wife of Hu Tangdi are characters who have walked from a thousand years ago to the present day. They don't need to act; they are the characters themselves. It is the warmth and tacit understanding between husband and wife that is portrayed, but the acting is a bit stiff.
Of course, this awkwardness is relative to their natural acting. However, Shang Lin doesn't know whether Chi Xie and Hu Tangdi had any romantic experiences before. As long as they act convincingly, that's fine.
Meanwhile, on the beautifully decorated stove, Huang Ying skillfully arranged the ingredients. Because she wasn't filming her face, her photos were particularly genuine, showing her happily making delicious food.
To be honest, this was the first time She Jinxing had ever seen such a busy scene. He couldn't help but send a telepathic message to Shang Lin, "Sect Master, look at this scene, I have a feeling that Xing Tian is about to start filming a TV series?"
Shang Lin, "..."
