?Chapter 838: Chapter 374: Securing the Heavenly Sun Soul Crystal, News of the Void Fairy Thunder Stone Chapter 838: Chapter 374: Securing the Heavenly Sun Soul Crystal, News of the Void Fairy Thunder Stone After perusing the information, Lin Jing closed the system panel and then left the System Space.
Upon exiting the System Space, Lin Jing had initially planned to continue to the Mission Hall to return the task he had completed.
But before he could set off, a presence arrived.
Lin Jing looked up and saw a figure speeding towards his cave abode.
This figure moved swiftly, reaching the valley where Lin Jing’s cave abode was located in the blink of an eye.
It was then that Lin Jing could see clearly.
It turned out that the visitor was none other than Elder Qi.
Elder Qi usually secluded himself to research elixir recipes and would hardly ever visit Lin Jing.
Even if there was something important, he would only send a message.
His personal visit today took Lin Jing by surprise.
After Elder Qi arrived, he descended directly near Lin Jing’s cave abode.
Seeing this, Lin Jing hurriedly went to greet him:
“Master…”
“What brings you here in person today?”
Elder Qi looked at Lin Jing and then spoke:“I just came out of seclusion yesterday and went to see the Alliance Hierarch.
We talked for a whole day, and somehow the conversation turned to you, so I decided to come and see you…”
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel astonished.
The Elixir Alliance Hierarch found Elder Qi to be quite a headache and would not seek him out unless it was absolutely necessary.
Now.
He had actually talked with Elder Qi for a whole day, which was indeed odd…
Lin Jing also didn’t understand why their conversation would revolve around him.
After speaking, Elder Qi then looked towards Lin Jing’s cave abode and said:
“This cave abode has an excellent location, truly peaceful.”
“Before I was promoted to an elder, the cave abode I chose was the one you reside in now.”
“It seems you and I share the same liking for tranquility.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Jing responded with a bow:
“Disciple often engages in alchemy, and during those times, I cannot be disturbed, so when choosing a cave abode, I often pick those places where people are scarce and extremely quiet.”
“When I originally chose a cave abode, this one was the most secluded, so I picked it.”
Elder Qi nodded and said:
“Hmm, good.”
“Not to mention anything else, in the aspect of choosing a cave abode, your thoughts coincide with mine.”
Lin Jing then spoke up, addressing Elder Qi:
“Master, you must have something on your mind for this visit.”
“How about we go inside the cave abode?
I will brew a pot of tea, and we can chat while we drink.”
Elder Qi nodded in agreement:
“That would be nice…”
“Master, please…” As Elder Qi finished speaking, Lin Jing led him into the cave abode.
Once they reached the main hall of the cave abode, Lin Jing arranged for Elder Qi to be seated and, after some bustling about, brewed some Spiritual Tea.
He then poured a full cup and placed it in front of Elder Qi.
Elder Qi picked up the tea cup, sipped a little, set the cup down, and then looked at Lin Jing before starting to speak:
“I didn’t know until I came out of seclusion yesterday and met with the Alliance Hierarch that both your junior brother and sister have become Seventh Grade Alchemists.”
Lin Jing nodded and said:
“Yes, Master.”
“My junior brother and sister have been very diligent and have both made a breakthrough to Seventh Grade Alchemists not long ago.”
Elder Qi heard this and looked towards Lin Jing, saying:
“All of this is thanks to you.”
“It’s quite embarrassing to say, but as your nominal master, I have always been secluding myself and haven’t truly taught you anything.”
Indeed.
In the time since Lin Jing and his peers had become disciples of Elder Qi, the elder spent most of his time secluded, researching elixir recipes, and rarely emerged.
As for their guidance…
Lin Jing and Changyun Yuanlei each had their own legacy and needed no teaching, while Ji Xiyue also went to Lin Jing because of the Elixir Scripture, eliminating the need to trouble Elder Qi.
Speaking honestly, Elder Qi hadn’t really instructed them much.
Even though Elder Qi had never taught them, Lin Jing was extremely content with this arrangement.
Having been in the Elixir Alliance for many years, Lin Jing had some understanding of the disciples under other elders.
While the disciples of other elders received guidance from time to time, they were not as free.
There were many areas within the Elixir Alliance that needed to be supervised, and a lot of this responsibility fell on disciples like Lin Jing.
From time to time, there were also important tasks within the Elixir Alliance that required arrangement and execution.
?????.??
Naturally, the disciples of those elders were the first choices.
However, things were different with Elder Qi.
Because of Elder Qi’s nature, even if there were tasks within the Elixir Alliance, the Alliance Hierarch would first tend to disregard them.
As a result, Elder Qi’s three disciples, including Lin Jing, were directly overlooked; three more or three fewer made no difference to the Alliance…
But if there were tasks to be done, the first one to be contacted would naturally be Elder Qi.
The last person the Elixir Alliance Hierarch wanted to face was Elder Qi, and he would rather handle the tasks himself than disturb Elder Qi over trivial matters.
Moreover.
The other elders seemed to share the same attitude as the Alliance Hierarch, seldom interacting with Elder Qi and thus naturally ignoring Lin Jing and his peers.
With that, Lin Jing and his companions became the most carefree within the entire Elixir Alliance.
As soon as Elder Qi finished speaking, Lin Jing promptly said:
“Master, you need not worry…”
“We three each have our own legacy, and there’s no need to trouble you for the time being…”
But just as he was saying this, Elder Qi interrupted him:
