Shang Lin was somewhat exasperated and specifically asked Situ Pojun, "Between the two of us, whose mouth is more venomous? And can a teleportation talisman be activated just like that? That's burning money. You're rich, but I can't be as rich."
No, that's not right. "Teleportation scrolls have distance limitations, okay? On the vast ocean, how many teleportation scrolls would I need to activate to get back? And if I fall into the sea halfway, how am I supposed to activate a teleportation scroll? I'd drown in no time, okay?"
Situ Pojun, "..."
Okay, he forgot it was a vast ocean. But, "Now that your cultivation has improved, will the distance you travel when you draw a teleportation talisman be greater?"
Is this the same thing? Shang Lin had a bit of a headache, but still told the truth, "Even if the distance is a bit farther because of my improved cultivation, it can only be twice as far at most, and it is absolutely impossible for it to be more than that."
Situ Pojun immediately compromised, saying, "My fault, my fault. Let's bring a speedboat, just in case."
"All right."
Besides that, Shang Lin couldn't think of any other means of transportation. As for helicopters... well, with their current strength, who could mobilize them?
Moreover, Shang Lin didn't want to waste even a single one of his two hours of sleep. He had been exhausted over the past month, and he needed to rest properly.
Shang Lin rested, but Shang Jing asked Situ Pojun, "Didn't you say Shang Lin had reached Foundation Establishment? How come he's lost so much weight? Can Foundation Establishment cause weight loss?"
Situ Pojun looked at Shang Jing speechlessly, "Do you think this is possible? There must be something else that made Shang Lin like this. After all, he has a lot of studies and other things to do. He's just a mortal, how can he withstand such a torment?"
Shang Jing looked at Situ Pojun with some dissatisfaction, "Then why did you still invite him? He should have been resting at home during the May Day holiday, why did he have to come to the auction?"
"Good deeds go unrewarded! You know, this is a rare opportunity."
Shang Jing, "..."
Although he didn't know much about cultivation, he knew that Shang Lin was now the sect leader of Yuntai Sect. As the sect leader, he must be exceptionally capable, otherwise how could he win the respect of the people?
Therefore, Shang Jing really couldn't refute Situ Pojun's words. He just felt that his younger brother was too tired at such a young age, especially since he was already in poor health.
So in the end, all Shang Jing could say was, "Please take good care of Shang Lin this time you're away."
Situ Pojun really wanted to say, "If I go out with Shang Lin, I don't know who will take care of whom. After all, although he himself is a bit weak, he has a lot of servants around him, and they are mostly powerful demons."
But he said, "Don't worry, now that I've called him here, I have to be responsible for his safety. Besides, I'm in charge of the sea area now, how could I not protect Shang Lin on my own turf?"
Shang Jing, "..."
What's with this sudden surge of domineering aura?
Two hours later, Shang Lin, still half-asleep, was led into a car by Situ Pojun. Seeing that Shang Jing hadn't gotten in, he instinctively asked, "Aren't you going?"
Shang Jing pointed upstairs, "The office can't be left unattended, and besides, I'm a clerical worker. If I go with you, I'm afraid I'll only be a hindrance at a crucial moment, so I won't go and cause trouble."
Shang Lin looked at Situ Pojun again, "Has your office not hired any new staff?"
As Situ Pojun started the car, he replied, "He confessed, and Shang Jing wasn't wrong. He's just a clerk, so even if he wasn't guarding the office, he couldn't have gone with us."
Shang Lin, "..."
Why does it feel like this journey is fraught with danger?
