The spiritual energy here is extremely rich. Most of them are native cultivators of Lingyun City and have never experienced such rich spiritual energy before.
Just by standing here, without even needing to use any special techniques to absorb the energy, you can feel the spiritual energy penetrating into your body.
Some people even showed faint signs of a breakthrough.
"Sister, do you know that person?" Just before leaving, Lin Shu suddenly stopped, tugged at Lin Jingge's skirt, and pointed to one of the people sitting around the entrance of the secret realm.
Lin Jingge followed Lin Shu's index finger and looked over.
What came into view was an unfamiliar face. If there was anything special about it, it was that it was better looking than many of the people in the crowd.
However, this person's figure looked somewhat familiar.
"What's wrong with him? Is something wrong?" Lin Jingge asked Lin Shu.
Lin Shu pursed his lips. He had only just noticed this person. Almost everyone else was tainted by the black energy as soon as they approached the secret realm, but this person was the only one who avoided it!
Although that's what I was thinking, I shook my head in the end and didn't say anything.
This reaction surprised Lin Jingge.
Her gaze returned to the man.
The more I look at it, the more familiar it seems.
Seemingly sensing that someone was slacking off, the person looked in Lin Jingge's direction and their eyes met.
You might mistake someone's appearance, but you'll never mistake their eyes!
It's Chu Wang!
Lin Jingge was startled, and even her aura seemed to weaken. She subconsciously took a step back.
Realizing her own tendency to avoid the situation, Lin Jingge frowned deeply.
She didn't consider herself the kind of person who would only run away from things because she was timid and cowardly. Even if she met Chu Wang, she wouldn't be scared off by just one look from him.
I guess it's the plot that's causing the problem!
Lin Jingge was filled with doubt and apprehension, and dared not linger there any longer.
He then quickly avoided Chu Wang's gaze, grabbed Lin Shu, and ran in the opposite direction, which was the way down the mountain.
Lin Shu was a little confused by Lin Jinge's sudden action, but fortunately he was sensible enough that, although he didn't know what was going on, he obediently let Lin Jinge hold him when he saw her in such a hurry.
Chu Wang also felt something was strange just now. When he glanced at her just now, he felt that the woman standing on the edge of the cliff looked somewhat familiar.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, and a figure appeared in my mind.
His gaze sharpened, and the pharmacopoeia he had stored in his mind appeared in his hand.
Looking at the pharmacopoeia in my hand, there was nothing I didn't understand; no wonder it looked familiar.
"Lin Jingge, I've been looking for you everywhere." Chu Wang chuckled softly.
This caused a cultivator sitting next to him to give him a strange look, and then silently moved to the side, afraid that the other party would suffer from qi deviation and injure him.
Noticing these subtle movements, Chu Wang's smile froze.
He snorted and stood up.
He had no mind to meditate anymore and chased after Lin Jingge.
This time, he was determined to kill the entire Lin family; only in this way could the Pharmacopoeia regain its rightful master.
Lin Jingge practically ran all the way home, and with Xiao Shi's help, she successfully shook off Chu Wang.
At this moment, Granny Lin was sitting in the courtyard, and there was another person sitting opposite her. Lin Jingge recognized the person as the chief of the Qian clan.
"Grandma..." Lin Jingge put Lin Shu down and led her into the courtyard.
Her gaze lingered on Qian Zhong.
Qian Zhong saw that Lin Jingge had returned, and just then, the matter had been almost completely discussed.
He rose to take his leave: "Please consider it, I will come again next time."
After saying that, he strode away.
After everyone left, Lin Jingge sat down in the seat that Qian Zhong had just been sitting in.
"Grandma, what is he doing here?" Lin Jingge asked curiously.
After all, their family had long refused to join the Qian family clan, and they hadn't been cultivating any spiritual plants lately, so Qian Zhongshi had no reason to come over.
"His eldest son has suffered a fire poisoning attack. The spiritual plants we grow have some effect. Chief Qian wants me to help treat his eldest son."
"It can cure illnesses..." Lin Jingge sat on the stool and quickly sensed something was wrong from Granny Lin's words.
If it were simply a matter of treating the fire poison, Granny Lin would definitely agree.
There must be another reason why Granny Lin is hesitant to agree.
"Does Patriarch Qian want you to join the Qian family?" Lin Jingge asked tentatively.
Grandma Lin nodded slightly.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jingge knew that she had guessed correctly.
“We are members of a family, and it’s impossible for us to join another family,” Granny Lin said calmly, showing no emotion despite Qian Zhong’s nagging.
Her usually calm eyes flickered slightly when she looked at Lin Jingge: "If it weren't for the fact that you're a member of the Lin family, you could have joined another family and wouldn't be living this kind of life now."
At this point, Grandma Lin sighed.
I witnessed the prosperity of my family when I was young and enjoyed the benefits it brought me.
But her granddaughter, who never enjoyed the benefits of the family, had to bear the burden of a broken family for the rest of her life.
If it were any other family, they could simply withdraw, but it had to be the Lin family.
To leave the Lin family, one must abolish cultivation and extract the spiritual root inherited from the Lin family's bloodline; otherwise, no matter where one goes, one will still be a member of the Lin family.
The first rule of the Lin family is that members cannot join other families.
There were also members of the Lin family who did not believe in this, and as a result, when they were included in the genealogy of other clans, their spiritual roots and cultivation were completely destroyed on the spot.
Grandma Lin told Lin Jingge these words, hoping she would make a decision.
“Grandma, there are only the two of us left in the Lin family. If we abandon the Lin family, then our clan will cease to exist in this world.” Lin Jingge’s words truly touched Grandma Lin’s heart.
Even without those consequences, Granny Lin wouldn't want to abandon the Lin family name.
"Actually, there's another way." Lin Jingge piqued Grandma Lin's attention.
In the past, she wouldn't have thought so much, but now that Chu Wang has appeared, perhaps because of the power of the plot, even though Chu Wang went to the imperial city, he still returned here.
If she doesn't find herself enough support, she and Granny Lin won't be as lucky as last time once Chu Wang comes looking for her.
"Jiaojiao, do you have any ideas?"
“We don’t have to join the Qian family, but we can become their retainers,” Lin Jingge said, revealing her thoughts.
"We're just lowly spirit masters, serving as retainers of the Qian clan?" Granny Lin never expected Lin Jingge to think that way.
It should be noted that many of the disciples in the Qian Clan have reached the level of Spirit Master.
“We are not qualified on our own, but I have a way to cure the fire poison of the eldest son of the Qian family,” Lin Jingge said.
Knowing that she had a place to stay, Lin Jingge felt a little relieved, and a smile appeared on her face.
