I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 128: Lin Xuyuan

Lin Qing was shocked. In addition to his shock, he still didn't quite believe in fortune-telling. In his opinion, Lin Xuchang was able to break through because he had taken two Foundation Building Pills, and the quality of the second pill was also good. And now, with the second-grade superior spiritual vein in the family, he was able to make a breakthrough.

There were even some unknown opportunities. As for fortune-telling, Lin Qing felt that it was probably just an excuse.

But he didn't ask much. It was good that he was able to make a breakthrough. With this breakthrough, there were now five Foundation Building cultivators in the family. Lin Qing could wake up from his dreams with a smile.

Speaking of which, Lin Xuchang had been managing mortals with Lin Xuyuan for the past few years. And after three years, the Lin Family City had already built thousands of houses of various sizes, accommodating nearly ten thousand mortals. Compared to three years ago, there were so many more mortals now. One reason was that Lin Xuzhe was still recruiting outside, and the other reason was that these mortals voluntarily brought their families with them.

A year ago, with relentless efforts, these mortals not only opened up the roads between the mountains, but also opened up a road leading outside the mountains.

Although this road was only two feet wide and winding, it was a road that mortals could walk on after all. Moreover, Lin Qing had cleared the monsters and beasts on both sides of the road, so it was safe. In the past year, Lin Xuzhe would come back from outside every half month, making a round trip.

Every time he would take this small road, followed by many mortals. Lin Xuzhe was protecting these mortals.

With this road, some mortals voluntarily came here.

Originally, it was agreed upon during recruitment that after three years, mortals could leave on their own. But the first batch of mortals had already reached the deadline, and not many people left. Instead, they brought their families with them, after all, it was not as good outside as it was here. Just like Qian San had thought, others could also think of it.

As for the mortals who lived here permanently, Lin Qing allocated ten mu of land to each person who was willing to farm, exempting them from rent for the first twenty years.

The mortals were all pleasantly surprised by this. After all, this was land. Ten mu of land exempt from rent for twenty years. There was no such condition outside. Just this one condition was enough to satisfy them.

As for the Lin Family descendants who came with Sanzhen Town, Lin Qing allocated a hundred mu of land to each of them. They could also rent it out if they didn't want to farm. This was also Lin Qing's guarantee for the mortal descendants of the Lin Family. Moreover, Lin Qing promised that as long as they had children, each person would be rewarded with ten mu of land, all for the sake of the Lin Family's prosperity.

As for the possibility of insufficient land in the future, in this world, strength was respected. As long as Lin Qing and his family were here, they could expand outward in the mountains as much as they wanted. Not to mention that there wasn't much land, unlike spiritual fields. Mortal fields could be easily obtained by burning mountains and reclaiming land in these mountains. Besides, not everyone who came here as mortals wanted to farm.

And in these three years, some scattered cultivators outside also learned about the Lin Family Mountain. However, for the time being, no cultivators came. After all, this place was a hundred miles away from the outside world. Most cultivators wouldn't dare to venture so deep into an unfamiliar family. But Lin Qing didn't mind. Even if there were cultivators willing to come now, he had no place to arrange them.

Wait for another ten years, Lin Qing thought. By then, not only would the market be built, but the road leading outside would also be wider. The Lin Family would also have a reputation. Even if there were no cultivators willing to come, it wouldn't matter.

On the third day after Lin Xuchang's breakthrough, Lin Xuyuan approached Lin Qing.

Lin Qing looked at Lin Xuyuan and knew that his son was feeling a bit frustrated for not being able to break through to Foundation Building. He wanted to comfort him, but found that he had already said comforting words over the past few years.

Lin Xuyuan smiled at Lin Qing and then said, "Dad, I want to talk to you about something."

"You may speak," Lin Qing said.

"Father, I want to live in Linjia City in the future. One reason is to protect the safety of those mortals, and the other reason is that I also want to marry a wife," Lin Xuyuan said, staring at Lin Qing.

"Live in Linjia City?" Lin Qing heard this and first realized that his son had no intention of breaking through to Foundation Building. Linjia City, as a city for mortals, although built on spiritual veins, is only a middle-grade first-order, far from the second-order spiritual veins. The most crucial point is not the spiritual veins, but the second sentence that Lin Xuyuan said, that he wants to marry a wife.

In Lin Qing's view, Lin Xuyuan's words probably meant giving up on Foundation Building.

After thinking about it, Lin Qing also felt that Lin Xuyuan's decision was not wrong. Not to mention that the family currently lacks Foundation Building pills in the short term, even if there were, he probably wouldn't be able to break through. The aptitude of the Five Spiritual Roots is like a lock, which ordinary cultivators cannot break free from. The matter of Lin Xuchang is almost like a miracle.

"Well then, since you are willing to live in Linjia City, you can live wherever you want. As for the matter of marrying a wife, as long as you are willing, you can marry however you want. No need to say more to your father, it's all up to you," Lin Qing said. After saying this, Lin Xuyuan's face brightened, and he left after bowing.

After Lin Xuyuan left, Lin Qing thought to himself that there must be another reason for Xuyuan's decision, probably related to Lin Xuchang's breakthrough to Foundation Building. Both of them had failed to break through before, which was understandable. But now that Lin Xuchang has succeeded, the impact on Lin Xuyuan is probably greater than anything else.

Thinking of something, Lin Qing called for Lin Xuchang.

"Xuchang, how about living in Linjiaji in the future?" Lin Qing said. The Linjiaji he mentioned is the future market that will be built on the second-grade lower-grade spiritual veins. It hasn't been built yet, but Lin Qing wants Lin Xuchang to live there.

"Live in Linjiaji?" Lin Xuchang didn't react for a moment.

"Your younger brother Xuyuan is now living in Linjia City. I thought it would be better for you to live in Linjiaji," Lin Qing said again.

"I see, Father, I am naturally willing," Lin Xuchang said. Lin Qing nodded, and then Lin Xuchang left.

After thinking about the matters of these two sons, Lin Qing sighed. This time, he intentionally wanted them to separate.

Then he thought of another matter, and a smile appeared on Lin Qing's face.

The two sons he had with Xiao Qianxiao Wei, named Lin Xusi and Lin Xuqian, have also started cultivating now. Like Lin Xuqing, they both have three spiritual roots, and due to the abundant spiritual energy here, they reached the first level of Qi Refining in just one month. In Lin Qing's opinion, they will probably break through to the middle stage of Qi Refining in a few years, and the Qi Refining stage is not a bottleneck for them.

Moreover, because of their spiritual roots, there is a high chance of them breaking through to Foundation Building in the future. In Lin Qing's opinion, even if they don't eat Foundation Building pills, they will still succeed.

In other words, in another twenty or thirty years, it is possible for the Lin family to have Foundation Building cultivators again. How could Lin Qing not laugh at such growth in strength?

As for the matter of having more children, Lin Qing hesitated a bit. Currently, Goldfinger's help with his formations is not that significant, and his spiritual roots are constantly improving. It wouldn't hurt to wait until they improve before having more children. In addition, considering what Lin Xuyuan told him today about wanting to marry, Lin Qing thought about it and decided that this matter is not urgent for now.

As for Lin Xuyuan, after bidding farewell to Lin Qing, he arrived at Linjia City and looked at the mortal city that had already taken shape. A faint smile appeared on his face.
