I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 274: Wu Family?

"Ancestor, you have given him a great opportunity," Lin Yuanwu said.

Lin Qing smiled, it was just a casual act.

Continuing on, Lin Qing also encountered several cultivators, but did not disturb them. These cultivators seemed to be from the cultivation families around the lake, but their strength was weak.

The lake seemed interesting at first glance, but after a while, it lost its appeal. Lin Qing raised the flying boat higher, wanting to quickly leave the Bayan Lake and head to a market in the Wei Kingdom.

But...

Not long after flying, Lin Qing saw two groups of cultivators fighting, and the situation was extremely intense.

These two groups were fighting on a small island in the lake. One group had five cultivators, while the other only had one. However, all five of them were at the Qi Refining stage, while the lone cultivator was at the Foundation Building stage.

At this moment, all five cultivators were heavily injured, and although the Foundation Building cultivator was temporarily blocked by their desperate attacks, it wouldn't be long before the Foundation Building cultivator emerged victorious.

Lin Qing had no intention of getting involved in this fight. This was a place where the Wei Kingdom and him had no connection. The cultivators' fight had nothing to do with him.

"Fight him to the end!"

On the small island, one of the five cultivators shouted loudly, while the remaining four prepared for a final desperate struggle.

The Foundation Building cultivator laughed heartily, "Hahaha, you remnants of the Wu Family are truly naive and terrifying."

"Hmm?"

Lin Qing was surprised. Wu Family?

How could there be a Wu Family in the Wei Kingdom? Could it be related to the Yan Kingdom?

The conversation he overheard in the restaurant in the Yan Kingdom, as well as his conversation with that cultivator, made Lin Qing pay attention to this matter. He thought that if these five people were from the Wu Family in the Yan Kingdom, then the person on the other side should be from the Yan Family.

Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the case. He found the Yan Family's emblem on the person's sleeve.

This was truly a coincidence. Lin Qing didn't rush to leave, but instead approached the small island and landed above them without being noticed.

"Ancestor, leave it to me," Lin Yuanwu, who knew that Ancestor Lin Qing intended to participate in this conflict, volunteered.

Lin Qing smiled and nodded.

At this moment, on the small island, the five Qi Refining cultivators each took out a blue flag and infused their mana into it. Lin Qing could tell at a glance that this was just a combined attack formation. It might pose a threat to some early-stage Foundation Building cultivators, but this Yan Family Foundation Building cultivator clearly did not fall into that category. Although he was also at the early-stage of Foundation Building, Lin Qing noticed that his spiritual power was quite good for this stage. This formation would not be effective, and instead, it might exhaust them due to the joint effort of the five cultivators.

The Yan Family Foundation Building cultivator seemed to have noticed this as well and did not make a move. He looked at them with disdain, like a cat watching a mouse struggling, knowing that the mouse would eventually be caught.

The five cultivators seemed to realize that they were no longer able to activate the formation due to their weakened strength, but they couldn't stop. This was their last resort.

"Yuanwu, capture this person alive. Move quickly and don't give him any chance to send a message."

Lin Qing reminded.

"Don't worry, Senior Lin." Lin Yuanwu smiled, then flew down from the flying boat. The Foundation Building cultivator from the Yan family seemed to have sensed something, but before he could react, all his spiritual power was suppressed. Except for his eyes, he couldn't move any part of his body.

The five cultivators who were still infusing their spiritual power looked astonished at this sudden turn of events and didn't know what to do.

But soon they realized that someone who could restrain him in the blink of an eye must be a mid or even late Foundation Building cultivator. And restraining him might be helping them, so they immediately put away the blue flags in their hands.

Of course, they also knew that these flags were useless against Lin Yuanwu, who had a higher cultivation level.

After putting away the flags, the five of them felt a bit weak, and Lin Qing descended.

When Lin Yuanwu made his move just now, he had already concealed his appearance, and Lin Qing did the same. So in the eyes of these five people, another cultivator with a higher cultivation level and a concealed appearance suddenly appeared, and they could only hope that he was a friend rather than an enemy.

But in their hearts, they had never encountered such a friend before.

The restrained cultivator from the Yan family had a look of shock in his eyes. The five Wu family cultivators might think that Lin Yuanwu was a mid or late Foundation Building cultivator, but he could see at a glance that Lin Yuanwu was at the Purple Mansion stage. As for Lin Qing, he couldn't discern his cultivation level at all, which meant it was even higher.

"Thank you, Senior, for saving us!"

One of the older cultivators among the five realized something and quickly spoke up.

Lin Qing nodded and then asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you cultivators from the Wu family in Yan Kingdom? Was this Yan family cultivator chasing after you?"

"We..."

The cultivator who had just spoken glanced at the four people beside him. Although they had been living in Wei Kingdom under the Zhou surname, not Wu, for a long time, they couldn't hide it when Lin Qing said so.

"Yes, Senior, we are indeed from the Wu family of Yan Kingdom. That person is indeed from the Yan family. Back then, they, the Yan and Yang families, suddenly attacked our Wu family, almost wiping us out. It has been nearly three hundred years now, and they still refuse to let us go. It's truly despicable. Thank you, Senior, for saving us. We are deeply grateful to the Wu family."

"But... may I ask for Senior's name, so that we can remember it,"

Upon hearing that he was being asked for his name, Lin Qing didn't want to answer, and seeing Lin Qing's silence, the five people were somewhat disappointed.

Thinking of something, Lin Qing took out a bottle of healing pills and gave them to the five people. "You should treat your injuries first. We'll talk later."

The five people didn't dare to say much and took the healing pills from Lin Qing, immediately consuming them. Lin Qing glanced at Lin Yuanwu and then approached the restrained Foundation Building cultivator.

Lin Qing set up a soundproof formation and began to interrogate him.

After a short while, Lin Qing already knew the whole story.

Although this Foundation Building cultivator didn't want to say much, how could he hide anything from Lin Qing?

After looking at Lin Yuanwu, Lin Yuanwu took care of this barely alive Foundation Building cultivator and then destroyed the body.

As for what he said, it was similar to what Lin Qing already knew.

He was an elder of the Yan family in Yan Kingdom. This time, he accidentally discovered traces of the descendants of the Wu family in Bayan Lake in Wei Kingdom and immediately took action. Unexpectedly, he was discovered by Lin Qing. As for why the Yan family had been relentless in pursuing the Wu family, he didn't know much. He only knew that the Wu family possessed a treasure that the Yan family needed, and all members of the Wu family had to be captured alive and brought back for the clan leader to interrogate. That was why he didn't kill these five people. Otherwise, with his cultivation level, he could have killed them long ago.

After dealing with this person, Lin Qing came to the front of the five people, with Lin Yuanwu smiling behind him.

Facing Lin Qing and Lin Yuanwu, the five people didn't dare to be impolite. Even though they were still healing their injuries, they stood up. Lin Qing took a look and saw that although they were seriously injured, their injuries were not life-threatening. He spoke, "To be honest, I didn't need to take action today, but I have had a significant connection with your Wu family in the past. Since I have encountered you today, I cannot turn a blind eye. Consider it repaying this connection. You don't need to know who I am, and as for your matters with the Yan family, I don't want to get involved either. I hope you will take care of yourselves in the future."
