Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 208 - : Trouble at the Li Family
Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Trouble at the Li Family
If he were to hand over the seed of the Moon Mulberry Spirit Fruit to someone else…
It would be akin to entrusting the fate of their entire Ning Family to another.
Their hesitation was a natural course of action.
Lin Jing was of course aware that this would put them in a difficult position…
However, he would never expose his own secrets.
Beyond this, there was no other way.
After a moment of thought, the Ning Family ancestor made a move…
He pointed at Ning Yue and said to Lin Jing:
“Young friend, please wait…”
“This matter is of great importance, I wish to discuss it with this junior member of my family…”
“I hope you can step aside for a moment…”
“After we’ve discussed, we will give you an answer, if that is acceptable…”
“Of course, that’s fine…”
Lin Jing nodded in response.
Since the Ning Family ancestor had already said so, it was not appropriate for Lin Jing to continue staying here.
Lin Jing spoke to the Ning Family ancestor:
“In that case, I will step out first. Let me know once you’ve finished your discussion.”
Having said that, Lin Jing was about to walk outside.
At this moment…
Li Tangyu also came over and said to Lin Jing:
“Fellow Daoist, let us go together…”
It was clear that he was also not suited to remain here while the Ning Family ancestor and Ning Yue discussed the matter.
Then, Lin Jing and Li Tangyu left the Secret Trade Room together and walked outside.
The two of them left the Secret Trade Room but did not go far, staying not far from the entrance.
The pair were silent for a moment…
Then, Li Tangyu looked at Lin Jing seriously and suddenly said:
“Fellow Daoist…”
“I constantly have this feeling that I am acquainted with you.”
“Have we met before?”
Lin Jing nodded directly and said:
“Of course we have…”
“I’ve long heard of Young Master Li’s great name…”
“Moreover, I often go to Nanshan Immortal City to make purchases, and I’ve seen Young Master Li on the streets a few times.”
“However, I’ve always been in disguise, not wanting to expose my identity, which is why you might find me familiar.”
“No wonder I felt this sense of familiarity, you also frequent Nanshan Immortal City… I understand now…”
Li Tangyu said, suddenly enlightened.
“Of course…”
Lin Jing continued:
“Many of the alchemy ingredients we use in Elixir Valley are purchased from Yuebaolou and other merchants.”
“I understand, I understand…”
Li Tangyu nodded in response.
In his mind, with the many alchemists in Elixir Valley, there was a natural need for a large amount of alchemy ingredients. The spirit plants grown by Elixir Valley alone would surely not suffice.
The same was true for the Li Family.
Though the Li Family also had their spirit fields, the number of alchemists in the Li Family was not few…
The alchemy ingredients used each year were innumerable, and solely relying on their own cultivation would definitely not be enough.
It only made sense to purchase from the outside world.
Therefore…
Li Tangyu did not doubt what Lin Jing had said.
Afterward, the two chatted casually for a few sentences before falling silent again.
Because Li Tangyu realized that this heir of Elixir Valley seemed to be watching the passersby on the street without any interest in idle chatter with him.
He then refrained from being a nuisance and did not say anything further.
In fact…
It wasn’t that Lin Jing did not want to chat, but he did not dare…
After all, trouble often starts with careless talk.
The more he said, the greater the chance of making mistakes.
If he were by any chance careless and something seemed off to Li Tangyu, that would spell trouble…
So, the best strategy was to keep silent… frёewebnoѵēl.com
Soon, a quarter hour passed…
At this time, someone emerged from the Secret Trade Room.
Lin Jing and Li Tangyu turned their heads to look, only to see the elder of the Ning Family and Ning Yue walking toward them.
Coming to a stop nearby…
The elder of the Ning Family said to Lin Jing with a smile:
“Young friend, to be frank, this seed is of great significance to our clan…”
“And the Elixir Valley where you reside is inaccessible to outsiders, plus those seniors you mentioned cannot come out either…”
“We are truly at a loss as to what decision to make at this moment…”
Lin Jing wasn’t at all surprised by the elder’s words.
After all…
The Moon Mulberry Spirit Fruit seed was tied to the fate of the Ning clan, immeasurably precious – how could they easily hand it over to someone else?
The key point was, it was their first meeting and they were not acquainted.
If it had been another clan, they probably would have left long ago; the elder of the Ning Family was already showing a remarkably good temper.
Then, the elder of the Ning Family continued.
“How about this, we will take two days to think it over. Please come to the black market without fail in three days, by then we will have decided on the outcome and will inform you.”
As the elder of the Ning Family finished speaking, Lin Jing immediately responded:
“I understand the concerns of the senior…”
“Let’s do as you have said.”
“After three days, I will be here waiting for the senior…”
“Thank you, young friend…”
The elder of the Ning Family said to Lin Jing with cupped hands.
“No trouble at all…”
Having settled the matter, Lin Jing then took his leave from the three of them.
Thereafter, Lin Jing left the black market.
Time flew by quickly…
And the next day arrived.
At this moment, Lin Jing was in his own small courtyard, cultivating in the Divine Fire Triple Realm.
A strand of white flame, emitting a terrifying aura, danced continuously between Lin Jing’s fingers,
shifting into various shapes as Lin Jing kept forming different seals with his hands.
Lin Jing’s spirit was focused intensely on the flame at this moment.
But just then…
A knocking sound “thump thump thump” came from outside the door…
The knocking startled Lin Jing, causing the flame on his hand to quiver and then dissipate completely.
Lin Jing let out a sigh and calmed the spiritual power within his body before standing up.
Fortunately, Lin Jing had taken precautions earlier, so the sudden disturbance didn’t affect him much.
Following that, Lin Jing walked over to the door…
Upon reaching the door, he opened the courtyard gate.
Upon seeing Lin Jing, Huang Qingling said directly:
“Lin Jing…”

“Do you know, a big incident has happened…”
“Qing Ling, my friend, please, come in and speak…”
As he spoke, Lin Jing invited Huang Qingling inside.
After coming into the courtyard, Huang Qingling was the first to speak:
“News just came today – the elder of the Li Family and the disciples he led, they all died within the Secret Realm…”
“Even the head of the Li Family and the Young Master Li Yao died in the Secret Realm. The Li Family is finished this time.”
Hearing this news, Lin Jing was also shocked.
The elder of the Li Family was a well-known Golden Core Immortal with extensive experience in combat.
In theory…
Even if he couldn’t win, he should’ve been able to escape without any issues.
How could he have suddenly died inside the Secret Realm?
Lin Jing was puzzled.
And then there was Li Yao; Lin Jing had met him twice, not expecting that he too would die in the Secret Realm along with the elder of the Li Family.
This made Lin Jing frown and ponder:
“Could it be that this Secret Realm is really that dangerous?”
