Upon hearing Lin Jingge's sigh, both of their faces stiffened, especially Xiao Changyi.
At the time, he paid special attention to whether Lin Jinge had really left. Originally, he should have been the least likely to doubt Lin Jinge, as the treasure-hunting rat might have mistakenly found another treasure. However, for some reason, his suspicions grew stronger and stronger.
"What nonsense are you spouting?!" Zi Yan exclaimed angrily.
Judging from this appearance, it seems that he has already been tricked and fooled by Lin Jingge.
"It seems that if I don't let you search the place today, no one will believe me." Lin Jingge chuckled and moved aside a bit: "Go ahead and search, but leave as soon as you're done. Don't get in my way."
Lin Jingge yawned, looking like she wasn't afraid of being investigated, which actually intimidated the other party.
She's hiding all her treasures in her spatial storage, so why would she be afraid of these people searching for them?
In such a big house, it's not her who's getting tired.
"You're smart to know what's good for you." After hearing Lin Jingge's words, Zi Yan gave Lin Jingge an approving look, and her anger disappeared. She rolled up her sleeves and prepared to go into the house to search for things.
"By the way, we also need to search your storage device." As she passed by Lin Jingge, Zi Yan suddenly remembered this and stopped.
"My family is so poor that we live in this dilapidated courtyard. Do you think I would have that kind of thing?" Lin Jingge stared steadily into Zi Yan's eyes, without the slightest bit of guilt.
Zi Yan nodded in agreement, thinking that Lin Jingge's words made sense. Judging from Lin Jingge's poor appearance, she didn't seem like someone who could afford a storage device.
While the two were talking, Xiao Changyi kept his eyes fixed on Lin Jingge.
He couldn't detect the slightest bit of guilt on the other person's face.
Could it be that he was really wrong?
Or does Lin Jinge have some other trump card?
Xiao Changyi couldn't figure it out, but he couldn't just let Ziyan search a spiritual master's residence.
If Lin Jingge really has someone backing her, then this search could really offend that person.
Ahead, after Ziyan and Lin Jingge finished their conversation, they stepped over the threshold, intending to begin the search.
Xiao Changyi teleported to Zi Yan's side and grabbed her.
"Brother Yi, what's wrong?" Zi Yan asked, puzzled.
Xiao Changyi ignored these words and turned to Lin Jingge, saying, "This time, I was careless and have troubled you, Miss. I hope you will forgive me."
These words sounded nice, but Lin Jingge's expression didn't improve; she maintained her previous attitude: "What? Young Master, are you not planning to search anymore?"
"Search if you want, I'll let it go today. I just hope that you and this young lady will use this against me again in the future." Lin Jingge smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes.
Standing behind Xiao Changyi, Zi Yan dared not go past him and could only let him make the decision.
"Please rest assured, young lady, we will definitely not do such a thing." After saying that, he took out an item from his storage device: "We have troubled you a lot today, please accept this as an apology."
After saying that, the wooden box flew towards Lin Jingge.
"Farewell!" he said, then pulled Ziyan away.
After everyone left, Lin Shu quickly ran to Lin Jingge's side with her short legs.
Lin Jingge was holding a wooden box in her hand and carefully opened it.
It is a crystal-clear spiritual stone.
"A mid-grade spirit stone!" Granny Lin, who followed behind, exclaimed in surprise at the spirit stones in the simple box.
Although a thousand low-grade spirit stones can be exchanged for one mid-grade spirit stone, such a deal is rarely made.
Mid-grade spirit stones not only have a richer spiritual energy than low-grade spirit stones, but more importantly, the spiritual energy in mid-grade spirit stones is purer, making them more suitable for people who have broken through to the Spirit Master level.
Because for those above the Spirit Master level, low-grade spirit stones contain too many impurities and too little spiritual energy.
"That's quite a generous gesture." Lin Jingge finally smiled genuinely this time.
She's making a good deal, exchanging a door for a mid-grade spirit stone!
As the grandfather and grandson were talking, Lin Shu, who was standing at Lin Jingge's feet, made a move.
"I want this!" Lin Shu tried her best to stand on tiptoe, reaching her hands high as she rummaged through the wooden box in Lin Jin Ge's hand.
He sensed the rich spiritual energy emanating from the wooden box.
"He's quite greedy." Lin Jingge closed the wooden box and put it away.
He then reached out and tapped Lin Shu's nose.
As the rich spiritual energy disappeared, Lin Shu pouted somewhat unhappily.
[Eating, eating, eating! You eat more than me every day!] Xiao Shi muttered to himself.
This spirit stone is of much higher quality than the lower-grade ones, and it is tempted, but it is too embarrassed to ask Lin Jingge for it!
[Gege, you shouldn't have bought him in the first place. See? Now you can't afford to raise him!]
Lin Shu seemed to sense something and looked towards Xiao Shi.
His gaze accurately caught Xiao Shi lying on Lin Jingge's head, his eyes revealing a fierce look.
[“Oh, oh, oh, you dare to glare at me!” Xiao Shi shouted.]
After saying that, Xiao Shi felt a little scared and suddenly realized that the other party could hear her and Lin Jingge communicating with their minds.
They immediately tucked their tails between their legs and ran away.
Once inside the space, it became fearless and directly protested to Lin Jingge, "If you dare to give him the spirit stones, then I want them too!"
After saying that, it happily climbed onto the larva's body, eagerly waiting for the overflowing spiritual energy.
Although only a small amount spills out, even a mosquito's leg is still meat, so it doesn't mind!
Outside the space, Lin Shu clung tightly to Lin Jingge's clothes, gazing at her expectantly like a child begging for candy, a stark contrast to her previous angry glare at Xiao Shi.
This look is absolutely adorable; it almost made Lin Jinge swoon.
so cute!
Even so, Lin Jingge still did not give the spirit stone to Lin Shu.
Lin Jingge has already put away the spirit stones, intending to save them for a life-saving emergency.
In the end, he only gave Lin Shu a few low-grade spirit stones.
Once Lin Jingge made her decision, Lin Shu had no choice but to accept it, no matter how unwilling she was.
He could only sit dejectedly on the threshold, munching on a low-grade spirit stone. With each bite, he would turn back to glance at Lin Jingge.
"You're spoiling him way too much," Granny Lin said disapprovingly. "The spirit stones are what you earned; you should keep them for your own cultivation."
"Oh, Grandma, it's alright, it's just one or two spirit stones, nothing precious." Lin Jingge pushed Grandma Lin to sit down on the stool.
He then took out a lot of low-grade spirit stones and stuffed them into Granny Lin's arms: "Granny, take these spirit stones for your cultivation. If you need more, just ask me. This time in the Starry Forest, I also hunted a lot of demonic beasts and got a lot of spirit stones."
"Just focus on your cultivation and don't worry about trivial matters." Lin Jingge sat down next to Granny Lin and took Granny Lin's wrinkled hand in hers.
A pair of rough, tan hands contrasted sharply with Lin Jingge's fair, delicate hands.
The wounds on my hands from when I killed the larvae have completely disappeared without a trace.
"What are you going to do with an old woman like me? Keep her for yourself!" Grandma Lin felt hopeless about advancing and didn't want to be a burden to her granddaughter, so naturally she didn't want anything.
