Upon glancing around, Holaw Three Rivers noticed the street was bustling with cultivators coming and going—it indeed wasn’t a place for conversation.
Therefore,
Holaw Three Rivers directly said to Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin, let’s go…”
“I will take you to a secluded place.”
Having said that, Holaw Three Rivers led Lin Jing in another direction down the street, and Lin Jing, without hesitation, immediately followed.
Yan Wanfei also tactfully refrained from further comment, following alongside Lin Jing, although he kept looking Lin Jing up and down.
Quickly,
Under the guidance of Holaw Three Rivers, the trio arrived at the alley they had visited before.
After entering the alley, Holaw Three Rivers took out a token, faced a wall ahead, and then formed a hand seal with one hand.
?????.??
In a short while, the wall began to change, revealing a light screen.
Next, Yan Wanfei walked directly towards the light screen, and as he did so, he turned his head to Lin Jing and said:
“Brother Lin, follow me…”After Yan Wanfei finished speaking, the next moment he stepped into the light screen and vanished.
Once Yan Wanfei had gone inside, Holaw Three Rivers pointed towards the light screen and said to Lin Jing:
“After you, Brother Lin…”
Lin Jing nodded, then stepped forward directly into the light screen.
Upon entering the light screen, an expanse suddenly opened up before Lin Jing’s eyes.
This place was precisely the small courtyard they had been to before.
As Lin Jing entered, Yan Wanfei immediately approached him and asked:
“Brother Lin…”
“What exactly is your cultivation level now?”
“Why do I feel like I can’t see through you anymore?”
At this moment, Holaw Three Rivers also walked in, nodding and saying:
“I have the same feeling.”
“I have just entered the Divinity Transformation, but when facing Brother Lin, I always feel there’s an indescribable ethereal quality about him.”
Lin Jing looked at them with a smile and said:
“It’s been almost 130 years since we last parted, hasn’t it?”
Holaw Three Rivers nodded and replied:
“137 years.”
Lin Jing looked at Holaw Three Rivers, gave a slight nod, and then continued:
“In all these years, Brother Yan has already reached the Nascent Soul Peak Stage, and Brother San He has even entered the Divinity Transformation.”
“It seems you have had quite a good time here in the Inner Sea.”
Holaw Three Rivers nodded, then said:
“After arriving at this Inner Sea, we have always had Brother Jiu’s help, and we never lacked resources for cultivation, so naturally, our cultivation levels have risen quickly.”
“But as for you, Brother Lin, I can’t even see through your cultivation level anymore.”
Yan Wanfei also nodded eagerly:
“Yes!”
“What exactly is your cultivation level now, Brother Lin?”
Lin Jing then spoke:
“My current cultivation level is in the Solidifying Body Realm…”
As soon as Lin Jing’s words fell, Yan Wanfei couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise:
“A Solidifying Body Realm cultivator…”
Even Holaw Three Rivers, despite being mentally prepared, couldn’t help but have his breathing hitch upon hearing Lin Jing’s cultivation level.
When they last parted, Lin Jing’s cultivation was merely at the second layer of the Golden Core Stage.
Now, upon meeting again, Lin Jing had leaped across several major realms and had become a Solidifying Body Realm cultivator.
All this had happened within the span of 137 years.
With only 137 years, Lin Jing advanced from the second layer of the Golden Core Stage to the Solidifying Body Realm.
The pace of his cultivation was simply inconceivable.
Originally,
With the pace of the two of them, advancing over a hundred years from the Golden Core Stage, they had leaped across two major realms.
One reached the Nascent Soul Peak Stage, and the other entered the early stage of Divinity Transformation.
Such speed of cultivation progress could be considered extremely formidable.
Yet even that pace couldn’t compare to Lin Jing’s, whose rate of increasing his cultivation level was simply terrifying.
Yan Wanfei looked Lin Jing up and down with a face full of disbelief:
“Brother Lin…”
“Are you…
really a Solidifying Body Realm cultivator now?”
Lin Jing gave a slight smile, then released a bit of his cultivation aura, allowing them to get a sense of it before swiftly retracting his aura and then he said to them:
“To be frank with you two…”
“The reason for my swift advancement in cultivation is that I encountered some serendipitous opportunities, obtaining some cultivation techniques, as well as inheritances of cultivation.”
“That’s why I was able to break through to the Solidifying Body Realm in one fell swoop.”
Hearing this, Holaw Three Rivers suddenly understood and looked at Lin Jing with an envious expression.
And Yan Wanfei was even less able to conceal his admiration.
“`
“So that’s how it is…”
“To have actually obtained a cultivation inheritance, Brother Lin, you’re really lucky.”
Lin Jing smiled and then looked at the two people, asking:
“Since you two are here, where’s Brother Lu?
Isn’t he here?”
Yan Wanfei then spoke:
“Brother Jiu is temporarily not here, he should be arriving in a couple of days.”
“We’re here just to wait for Brother Jiu.”
After saying this, Yan Wanfei directly spoke again to Lin Jing:
“Right…”
“Brother Lin, since you’re here, I actually wanted to ask you about something…”
Before Yan Wanfei could finish speaking, Lin Jing directly said:
“You want to ask about the Changyun Clan and that Lin Family heir, right?”
At these words, Yan Wanfei’s eyes instantly lit up, and he nodded repeatedly:
“Yes…
yes…”
“That’s it.
Some time ago, the Changyun Clan brought back a Lin Family heir from the Southern Outer Sea.
That person couldn’t be you, Brother Lin, could it?”
“I want to know what exactly is going on?”
“Could it be that there are other Lin Family heirs in the Southern Outer Sea?”
Lin Jing nodded and then spoke:
“I came because of that matter.”
“You’re right, in the Southern Outer Sea, aside from myself, there indeed are other Lin Family heirs.”
“The one that the Changyun Clan took away, is indeed her…”
Upon hearing this, Yan Wanfei suddenly came to a realization and said:
“No wonder…”
“I was saying that Brother Lin has always been cautious; surely you wouldn’t so easily expose your identity.”
“As expected, it’s as I predicted…”
Hearing these words, Holaw Three Rivers’ mouth twitched slightly, and with a contemptuous look at Yan Wanfei, he said:
“Wasn’t that my line?”
Yan Wanfei, unconcerned, directly argued:
“I had thought of it long ago, just didn’t say it…”
At this shameless fellow, Holaw Three Rivers was already too tired to comment further and chose to ignore him.
Instead, he continued to ask Lin Jing:
“So, Brother Lin, have you come here to rescue that fellow sect member, your brother?”
Lin Jing looked at them, was silent for a moment, and then spoke:
“Not a brother, a sister…”
As soon as Lin Jing said this, it undoubtedly caused an earthquake.
After hearing Lin Jing’s answer, Yan Wanfei was so shocked that he took a couple of steps back, looking incredulously at Lin Jing:
“What?”
“It’s your sister?”
“You mean, the person who stole my sister-in-law, and was preparing to become Dao Companions with her, is your sister, meaning she’s a woman?”
Although Holaw Three Rivers wasn’t as exaggerated as Yan Wanfei, his shocked expression was also frozen on his face.
Lin Jing looked at them and nodded.
Seeing this confirmation, Yan Wanfei turned to Holaw Three Rivers and then said:
“What on earth are the people of the Changyun Clan thinking?”
“They actually want a woman to become Dao Companions with my sister-in-law?”
Holaw Three Rivers frowned and muttered to himself:
“How can it be a woman?
That’s not supposed to be…”
“There’s also no news that the person brought back by the Changyun Clan was a woman.”
Seeing the misunderstanding, Lin Jing hurriedly explained:
“Here’s the thing…”
“Although my sister is a woman, she has a special method to disguise herself, and this disguise is extremely effective, undetectable even by Mahayana cultivators.”
“Also, my sister has been presenting herself as a man in public.”
“So, very few people know her true gender is actually female.”
“No wonder…”
After Lin Jing’s explanation, they both suddenly understood.
“Hahaha…”
Soon, a burst of laughter came from the side.
It was Yan Wanfei, who was bending over with laughter.
Lin Jing and Holaw Three Rivers both turned their heads to look at Yan Wanfei, who was holding his stomach and laughing, not understanding why.
Seeing the two of them look at him, Yan Wanfei hurriedly explained:
“Imagine what Brother Jiu’s expression would be if he knew that the one stealing his bride is Brother Lin’s sister, and that she’s a woman.”
“Just thinking about how angry Brother Jiu was when he found out his almost-gotten bride was about to get married, that he was on the verge of eating someone, makes me want to laugh…”
“Hahaha…”
