Chapter 121: Arrival

Selling the Purple Mansion Technique to Lin Qing, Wang Fellow Daoist did feel a bit overconfident afterwards. That was the Purple Mansion Technique, not just some hand-copied technique he had sold before. But since it had already been sold, and many years had passed without any trouble, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Tracking Lin Qing this time was only a small reason. The bigger reason was that Wang Fellow Daoist's appetite had grown over the years. Since selling the first hand-copied technique to Lin Qing, Wang Fellow Daoist had relied on the Bai Bao Tower to sell various techniques. However, the Bai Bao Tower was not naive. In recent years, they had noticed something was amiss and strengthened their management. But there were still loopholes to exploit.

If he hadn't sold anything before, it would have been fine. But after selling for so many years, Wang Fellow Daoist had become accustomed to a large influx of spirit stones. Without this channel, he lacked spirit stones, and his actions became restricted. It even affected his cultivation.

To be honest, Wang Fellow Daoist had always been a righteous cultivator. There was no doubt about that. When he joined the Bai Bao Tower and was assigned to the Xuan Yu District, it was only with the intention of accumulating resources for an early breakthrough. The profit he made from selling the medium-grade spirit stones to Lin Qing made him happy for a long time.

But as the saying goes, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. On the path of selling techniques, Wang Fellow Daoist had gone too far.

Without this source of income, it was impossible for him to return to his previous state. It was like stealing needles as a child and stealing gold as an adult. Wang Fellow Daoist's ambition had grown bigger and bigger. It all started with selling a hand-copied technique to Lin Qing, and his heart fell into the abyss, leading him onto the path of robbery and cultivation.

In the following years, while serving as the manager of the Xuan Yu District, Wang Fellow Daoist used his strength at the Foundation Building stage to kill people and seize treasures. He even advanced to the mid Foundation Building stage.

But even the best-laid plans can have flaws.

A year ago, after breaking through to the mid Foundation Building stage, Wang Fellow Daoist carefully planned to rob a cultivator at the early Foundation Building stage and make a fortune. Unexpectedly, the robbery failed, and he was almost killed instead. After the news leaked, he had to flee and ended up in the Chi Yang Immortal City, where he heard about Lin Qing.

He didn't expect that after so many years, Lin Qing had successfully reached the Foundation Building stage. This was beyond his expectations.

However, he had no intention of getting to know Lin Qing. After all, his identity had been exposed, and the Bai Bao Tower was searching for him everywhere.

What made Wang Fellow Daoist want to kill Lin Qing was that a few days ago, he happened to see Lin Qing's family leaving their home. It reminded him of the scene when Lin Qing's family left the Xuan Yu District years ago. He wondered if Lin Qing's family was leaving again. Considering Lin Qing's family's strength and his own mid Foundation Building stage cultivation, he believed he could take them down.

Lin Qing's extravagant methods at the Bai Bao Tower had left a deep impression on him. After all these years, Lin Qing must have accumulated even more wealth since reaching the Foundation Building stage.

If he could take down Lin Qing, he wouldn't have to worry anymore. Moreover, the Purple Mansion Technique he sold to Lin Qing was also a hidden danger. Taking down Lin Qing would be like killing two birds with one stone.

So he followed behind Lin Qing, but he didn't expect Lin Xuzhe to be following him.

The next day, when he couldn't resist getting closer to launch a surprise attack on Lin Qing, he was unexpectedly discovered by Lin Xuzhe and met his demise.

All of this has already happened, and now Wang Fellow Daoist is dead, with no one in this world knowing about it.

Of course, if Lin Qing hadn't let the Purple Golden Toad eat Wang Fellow Daoist, perhaps he could have seen the wanted notice from Baibao Tower later and exchanged it for a reward, gaining some inside information. But now that the corpse has been digested, Lin Qing has no way of knowing.

Only a string of doubts remains, along with Wang Fellow Daoist's storage bag in his hand.

On the flying boat, Lin Qing opened Wang Fellow Daoist's storage bag and found various items worth about 20,000 spirit stones. This amount is not considered much for someone in the mid-stage of Foundation Building. Lin Qing selected some of the materials and put back anything that could be dangerous, then threw them into the dense forest below.

Ever since he followed Fellow Daoist Hua and used the Yin-Yang Disk to track the Foundation Building cultivator who destroyed the Five Family District, this cautious handling method has become his experience.

And the storage bag he left behind still contains items worth at least 2,000 spirit stones. If someone were to find it, the bag would naturally protect Lin Qing from disaster. If no one goes looking for it, this storage bag might be picked up by some low-level cultivator and become an opportunity for someone else.

Lin Qing thinks this is quite good.

After getting rid of the inexplicable Wang Fellow Daoist who came to Lin Qing's family, Lin Qing flew to the place where he discovered the spiritual vein in three days. At this time, Lin Xueze also caught up from behind.

Looking at the cave in front of him, and then at the mountains one after another around him, Lin Xueze took a deep breath.

"Dad, this place is really hidden."

Lin Qing nodded. Ordinary cultivators wouldn't come here, and even Foundation Building cultivators would fly past without thinking that there was a spiritual vein below.

At this moment, Lin Xueze looked at Lin Qing again and couldn't help but admire him for being able to find such a spiritual vein.

The other people in the family were also overjoyed when they learned that this place was actually a spiritual vein. They never expected that Lin Qing would bring them here, especially Xiao Qian and Xiao Wei. When Lin Qing told them to leave, they thought he had made enemies and felt a bit sad. But now they discovered that they had come to a spiritual vein, and their sadness turned into great surprise.

Of course, the most pleasantly surprised at this time were Lin Xuyuan and Lin Xuqing. They now have Foundation Building pills in their hands but have not made a breakthrough.

Now that they have this spiritual vein, it is time for them to make a breakthrough.

Afterwards, Lin Qing led the family into the cave. This place is really desolate and terrifying now. Outside the cave are countless tall trees, and inside the cave is damp and dark. Apart from the spiritual energy, it feels like returning to primitive life.

Compared to the residence in Chiyang Immortal City, this place is incomparable. But Lin Qing looked at the cave with a happy expression. Although it is simple now, one day it will become a treasure land for his Lin family.

Li Qingyu and the others took out things from the storage bag and started tidying up. Lin Qing took Lin Xueze outside.

Standing outside the cave and looking at the densely forested surroundings, Lin Qing asked Lin Xueze, "Xueze, what are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing Lin Qing's question, Lin Xueze looked at the forest and said, "Dad, in the future, we can build around this second-grade high-quality spiritual vein. In my opinion, we can start by building houses and cultivating spiritual fields. It won't take long for this place to undergo a big transformation."

Lin Qing nodded. "That's right. Although it is desolate now, it won't be long before this place becomes different. This will be a blessed land created by our Lin family."
