I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 219 - 183: Another Big Brother Appears

But now they had taken on a substantial debt, and selling Spirit Stones alone could not pay it off.

It seemed the only viable path was to secure the quota of Outer Disciples—otherwise, as husband and wife, they would find it difficult to turn their fortunes around.

"After we get to shore later, we should ask the Rong family to lend us some Spirit Stones. Even if we can't enter the Shuiyun Sect in the future, by selling the Soul-Collecting Pearl in our hands, we can still earn back the lost Spirit Stones."

The couple was discussing this as Tian Lin had already reached the shore and was registering for the Soul-Collecting Pearl at the place of the Great Elder.

The Great Elder, while receiving Tian Lin at the old residence, clearly showed much more enthusiasm than when receiving 'Tian Shuang'.

"Young friend Tian is so young, yet you have already achieved the Five Elements Foundation Establishment. Your future prospects are truly boundless."

Having said this, the Great Elder further inquired of Tian Lin, "May I ask if young friend Tian has married?"

Tian Lin understood the Great Elder's intention, which seemed to suggest introducing him to a daughter from the Tong Family.

He quickly said, "I am devoted to the Dao and have no current plans for marriage."

The Great Elder didn't take it to heart, and while offering tea to Tian Lin, he said:

"Young friend, your words are misguided. Cultivation emphasizes wealth, companions, the Law, and the land. It is clear that making friends and marrying do not hinder the pursuit of the Dao.

As long as the friends you make are learned scholars and the wife you marry comes from a reputable family, making friends and marrying not only do not interrupt cultivation but, in fact, can greatly aid your Immortal Path."

Tian Lin understood his meaning; the Great Elder was suggesting he find a wealthy bride.

And within the entire Pingyang City, who was richer than his Tong Family?

"Great Elder, you make a good point, but matters of marriage must be approved by my mentor."

"Who is young friend Tian's mentor?"

Tian Lin still refused to reveal Elder Yu's identity and vaguely replied:

"My mentor is in the North Wilderness; he rarely shows himself, I'm afraid the Great Elder might not recognize him."

The Great Elder knew Tian Lin was deliberately concealing information, so he didn't press further.

After all, when Tian Lin registered for the Soul-Collecting Pearl, he had only written 'Daoist Tian', which clearly was not his real name.

Although the Great Elder was dissatisfied with Tian Lin's evasiveness and secrecy, he still arranged accommodation for Tian Lin and was ready to give him a sword holder and a Sword Slave.

But Tian Lin declined; his purpose in coming to the Tong Family this time was to retrieve the Soul-Collecting Pearl in his true identity.

This was to prevent any issues that might arise due to his disguise when the time came to collect all the Soul-Collecting Pearls.

He went to the residence designated by the Tong Family for him, which was exactly where 'Tian Shuang' used to stay.

It happened that Gao He returned from borrowing Spirit Stones from the Rong Tribute, and upon seeing Tian Lin, his eyes couldn't help but light up:

"Brother Tian, we must really be destined to meet!"

Tian Lin also smiled: "I didn't expect to become neighbors with Brother Gao, I shall have to trouble you and your worthy wife in the future."

Gao He was genuinely close to Tian Lin; he suddenly walked to his own doorway, yelling inside, "Shu'er, come out and see who's here."

Cai Shu walked out from inside with a frown, but her eyes lit up instantly upon seeing Tian Lin.

She stepped forward eagerly and took Tian Lin's hand:

"I was just telling Old Gao when we would see Brother Tian again; who would have thought it would be so soon—it seems the heavens have pity."

Gao He said to Cai Shu, "You must not have imagined that Brother Tian is now our neighbor."

Cai Shu's face lit up with joy:

"This is truly fate. From now on, it will be much more convenient for our two families to have dealings. Old Gao, go and buy some wine and dishes; let's welcome Brother Tian and help dust off the journey."

Their enthusiastic hospitality made Tian Lin somewhat overwhelmed.

Meanwhile, Gao He indeed called for Xiang'er, telling her to use Spirit Stones to buy Spiritual Meat and Spiritual Wine.

He himself, together with Cai Shu, ushered Tian Lin into the house.

Tian Lin had been Gao He's neighbor for quite some time but was entering Gao Family's residence for the first time.

The Gao Family's residence was wider and larger than the place he lived, but aside from Xiang'er, the rest serving in the house were all unsightly women.

One of the unsightly women was about to brew tea for Tian Lin, but was scolded away by Cai Shu.

She went into the inner room, took out a box of tea leaves, and personally brewed the tea with her bare hands.

Tian Lin didn't know what kind of tea she was brewing, only feeling that the Five Element Spiritual Energy in the room had become much richer.

When the teapot poured the tea into the cup, the leaves floated and sank, and the tea in the cup showed through in five colors.

Tian Lin said, "What is this tea called? I have never drunk it before."

In Tian Lin's eyes, the entry didn't show the original name of the tea, only a prompt for "Golden God Pill."

Tian Lin was more than familiar with the three words "Golden God Pill."

He had not yet cultivated the Five Elements Divine Technique because he could not find the necessary Divine Pills.

But now, as a guest at the Gao Family, he came across the prompt for "Golden God Pill" by chance.

"This is the Five Elements Fog Concealing Tea, and it has quite the origin."

Gao He introduced to Tian Lin, "Brother Tian, you have been to Immortal Sinking Pond, and you must know the wonders of it. Do you know how the Immortal Sinking Pond came to be?"

Tian Lin took a sip of the Five Elements Fog Concealing Tea, feeling a golden mist swirling in his Dantian.

He set the tea cup down, speaking unhurriedly:

"To my knowledge, Immortal Sinking Pond was opened by a Swordsman with a single strike, and then Zhao Tianyang, a predecessor from Central State, drowned it with a bowl of tea."

Gao He laughed and said, "Correct, that bowl of tea from Zhao Tianyang submerged the Immortal Sinking Pond. It was Zhao Tianyang who forcefully infused Dao with the basis of the Five Elements that resided in the tea..."

At this point, Gao He suddenly paused, looked at Tian Lin, and asked, "The guest from Central State, his name was Zhao Tianyang?"

Many legends circulated about the Immortal Sinking Pond, but few truly knew who caused its creation.

After all, the Immortal Sinking Pond had existed for ten thousand years.

"The rumors of the Immortal Sinking Pond have long been widespread, and the identity of that guest from Central State has also been passed on too widely. I wonder where Brother Tian heard the name of this predecessor?"

Tian Lin said lightly, "This was mentioned by my mentor, who said that although Zhao predecessor may have acted high-handedly, he was indeed from a Righteous and well-known lineage—

From what my mentor said, it seems Zhao predecessor had some enmity with Yulong Continent."

Hearing Tian Lin mention 'my mentor,' Gao He and his wife showed great respect.

The couple exchanged a glance, and Gao He carefully asked Tian Lin, "May Brother Tian reveal how old your esteemed mentor is currently?"

Tian Lin frowned and thought for a moment, saying, "My mentor's age, I'm afraid, is not any less than the time Immortal Sinking Pond has existed."

Tian Lin wasn't sure exactly how old Elder Yu was, but he knew that Elder Yu must be highly cultivated and have a long life.

Because according to Elder Yu, the Dao Bell was his.

Upon hearing Tian Lin's words, the couple both gasped, truly unable to believe if Tian Lin was boasting or not.

But if Tian Lin wasn't boasting, then the Tian Lin before them might be the most prestigious person they could ever encounter in their lives.

"Master, Madam, the dishes have arrived."

Outside, just as Xiang'er had spoken, Cai Shu stood up abruptly, went out to bring in the food casket.

She took out dish after dish of Spiritual Meat, personally serving them to Tian Lin.

Upon seeing various prompt words, Tian Lin couldn't help saying, "This must have cost quite a few Spirit Stones, right?"

Gao He felt the pinch in his heart, but his face was generous, "We share the same disposition; a little liquor is nothing to make a fuss over."

He first picked up the wine cup and said to Tian Lin, "Brother Tian, I'll toast you first."

Tian Lin quickly said, "Brother Gao is the host and older than me, it should be me toasting you instead."

Hearing Tian Lin call him Brother Gao, Gao He's heart bloomed with joy.

He stood up, drank the contents of the cup in one go, and said, "Since you've called me big brother, then I will treat you as my own blood brother.

My good brother, I, Gao He, don't easily call others brothers, but somehow, meeting you this time feels especially close."

Cai Shu supported the idea, "Since the two of you have found such rapport, why not become sworn brothers?"

Tian Lin was taken aback, while Gao He pretended to be displeased at Cai Shu, "Your words, wouldn't they make Brother Tian feel awkward?"

Tian Lin smiled, "If Brother Gao does not despise it, I, Tian, am also willing to become sworn brothers with Brother Gao."

Without beheading a chicken or burning yellow paper at the dining table, Tian Lin, renamed 'Tian Changsheng,' and Gao He became sworn brothers.

Gao He held Tian Lin's hand, saying, "From now on, you are my brother. In this world, aside from your sister-in-law and I being closest to each other, I now have another close person."

Tian Lin also said, "In this world, now I only have you, Brother Gao."

He originally had several other big brothers. His first sworn brother, Big Brother Zhang, died, but it wasn't his curse.

The second, Brother Han, although not sworn, he respected Han Li and treated him as a big brother.

Unfortunately, Han Li had passed away, and that wasn't his curse either.

Now there was Brother Gao—

While Tian Lin's mind was filled with mixed feelings, Cai Shu held his hand, "Changsheng Brother, now that you have a big brother, don't forget to have a drink with your big sister-in-law too."
