?Chapter 840: Chapter 375: Arriving at the Shi Family Chapter 840: Chapter 375: Arriving at the Shi Family In the East Continent’s Shi Family, Lin Jing stood in shock upon hearing the news.
The Shi Family…
?0???.??
That’s the family Shi San belonged to.
Ever since joining the Elixir Alliance in the Eastern Spirit Realm, Lin Jing had been inquiring about the possibility of repairing the Lin Family’s Pill Furnace.
And he had never left the Elixir Alliance.
As for the Shi Family, Lin Jing had also asked about them before; they were located in the Northwest Region of the Eastern Spirit Realm, quite a distance from the city of the Elixir Alliance.
Therefore, Lin Jing had temporarily abandoned the idea of going to the Shi Family.
He also wondered how Shi San’s grandfather’s trip to the Outer Spatial Void to find a cure for Shi San had turned out?
And whether Shi San had recovered or not?
Originally, Lin Jing had considered visiting the Shi Family in the Northwest of the Eastern Spirit Realm by himself after the Pill Furnace was fixed, when he had some free time.
However, he hadn’t expected Elder Qi to suddenly bring news for him to visit the Shi Family, mentioning information about Void Celestial Thunder Stones.
This made Lin Jing can’t help but wonder.
What exactly was the relationship between Elder Qi and the Shi Family?
And his last departure, when he said he was helping a friend with alchemy, was that also related to the Shi Family?
All this, Lin Jing did not know.
Elder Qi hadn’t said, and although Lin Jing had his suspicions, he couldn’t be certain.
The best course of action was naturally to go to the Shi Family in person.
Once he got to the Shi Family, everything would become clear.
After pondering, Lin Jing did not enter the cave dwelling but instead left directly and headed towards the dwellings of Ji Xiyue and Changyun Yuanlei.
With Elder Qi absent and his own impending departure, he certainly had to inform the two of them.
He first arrived at Ji Xiyue’s cave dwelling.
When Lin Jing arrived, Ji Xiyue happened to be free, so Lin Jing simply explained the situation and then, taking Ji Xiyue with him, they went to Changyun Yuanlei’s cave dwelling.
They quickly reached Changyun Yuanlei’s cave dwelling.
Yuanlei was surprised to see them and then quickly welcomed them inside.
Upon entering the cave dwelling, Yuanlei was the first to speak to Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin…”
“The Alchemy Conference is just one year away, and it’ll be attended by talents from many Sects, as well as cultivators with astonishing Alchemic Talent.”
“My sister, along with Brother-in-law Lu and the others, definitely cannot miss this grand event.”
“We will be able to meet again then.”
Lin Jing nodded, then said:
“Hmm…”
“Since we parted, it’s already been decades.
I wonder how they are now.”
“About the struggle in the Inner Sea, last time you said you’d look into it, have you found out anything?”
At this, Changyun Yuanlei hurriedly spoke:
“Brother Lin, I was just about to tell you that.
Not long ago, my grandfather sent word that the conflict in the Inner Sea is about to come to an end.”
“Moreover, my grandfather said that after the conflict is over, our ancestor seems to be planning to visit the Elixir Alliance.”
“The struggle in the Inner Sea is coming to an end?” Lin Jing muttered to himself.
The struggle in the Inner Sea involved three top forces, and ending it was not an easy task.
Now, after decades of conflict among the three major powers, it was finally coming to an end.
Lin Jing then looked at Changyun Yuanlei and asked:
“Considering your grandfather mentioned this, it seems the Changyun Clan is winning this struggle.”
Changyun Yuanlei said:
“Perhaps, but the message my grandfather sent didn’t discuss this matter.”
Lin Jing nodded.
Then, Changyun Yuanlei asked:
“By the way, Brother Lin…”
“Did you come to find me for a reason?”
Lin Jing nodded, saying:
“There is something…”
“I will need to leave the Elixir Alliance for a while to go to the Northwest of the East Continent, to the Shi Family there.”
Upon hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei was stunned, then asked in confusion:
“Brother Lin, why do you suddenly want to visit the Shi Family?”
Lin Jing explained:
“You guys must know that I’ve been trying to find a way to repair the Pill Furnace of our Lin Family all this time.”
“Elder Qi sent me a message this time, telling me to make a trip to the Shi Family, saying that there’s news about that last material I’ve been lacking.”
“That’s why I have to make the trip myself.”
“So that’s how it is…” Changyun Yuanlei suddenly understood.
“In that case, you must certainly make the trip to the Shi Family.”
Lin Jing nodded, then continued:
“That’s why I came to tell you both.”
At this moment, Changyun Yuanlei asked Lin Jing:
“Brother Lin…”
“How long will you be at the Shi Family?”
Lin Jing thought for a moment, then answered:
“That’s unclear at the moment.
If nothing unexpected happens, it shouldn’t be for long.”
“If something changes and I cannot return in time, you can just tell Brother Lu and your sister about where I went when they arrive.”
After hearing this, Changyun Yuanlei nodded and said:
“Alright, Brother Lin.”
…
…
Having arranged everything, Lin Jing left the Elixir Alliance the next day and set off for the Shi Family.
The Shi Family was located in the Northwest Region of the Eastern Spirit Realm, and it was the most powerful clan in that entire region.
The strength of the Shi Family was not in their numbers.
All together, the Shi Family only consisted of a few dozen people, yet each member possessed extraordinary strength.
As such, hardly anyone in the Northwest Region of the Eastern Spirit Realm dared to provoke the Shi Family.
But there were always exceptions.
Even a powerful family like the Shi Family had enemies.
Their relationship with these adversaries was irreconcilable.
The enemy had even set up an ambush that targeted the most talented of the younger generation in the Shi Family.
This was the father of Shi San.
In that ambush, both Shi San’s father and mother perished on the spot, and even Shi San himself was theoretically dead from the moment he was born.
