Chapter 338: Letting Go

After Lin Qing finished speaking, there was still no movement from inside the door. As for breaking down the door and entering, Lin Qing didn't want to do such a thing.

After a long silence, a voice finally came from inside: "Just throw the spiritual medicine and materials in when you bring them. You don't need to come in."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing felt somewhat helpless. What surprised him was that the voice was the same as the one he heard when he first met Bag Master. It seemed that after revealing her true identity that day, Bag Master had resumed her disguise.

"Alright then, I've put everything in a storage bag. Please take it." Lin Qing said, and then threw the storage bag in through the door. After pausing for a moment, he left reluctantly.

After a long time, someone finally came out from behind the door, and it was indeed Bag Master.

And as Lin Qing had expected, Bag Master had resumed her disguise. At this moment, when she saw the storage bag that Lin Qing had thrown in, her expression became complicated. She waved her hand and the storage bag flew into her hand.

Upon opening it, she found various healing spiritual medicines and the materials of the crab.

"You've kept your promise." Bag Master put away the storage bag.

But immediately, a hint of indiscernible expression appeared on her face.

Lin Qing couldn't forget about this matter either. She was no different. Coming from Lanzhou, she had been single-mindedly cultivating since she was young, not considering the matter of a Dao companion. Later, when she advanced to the Gold Core stage, there were few suitable Dao companions for her. Then there was the incident of the battle between righteousness and evil, her sect was destroyed, and she had to disguise herself and flee to Yunzhou.

Originally, she had planned to recover from her injuries in the Lin family's gathering and then make the next decision. But unexpectedly, she ended up agreeing to Lin Qing's request to kill a monster, and this happened.

Since this incident, it could be said that she hadn't had a single day of peace in the past month.

During these days, she had also thought about leaving, but her heart wasn't willing. She stayed inexplicably.

Even she herself didn't know what she was thinking.

If it was about becoming Dao companions with Lin Qing, although his strength was not as good as hers, it wasn't a big problem in her eyes. According to her judgment, it was only a matter of time before Lin Qing advanced to the mid or late stage of the Gold Core.

What made her unable to accept was that Lin Qing already had wives and concubines. She couldn't accept it.

But if she tried to forget about it, she couldn't forget it no matter what.

"Ah~"

Unconsciously, she sighed.

Then she suddenly felt horrified. Since stepping onto the path of cultivation, when had she ever been so melancholic?

Lin Qing didn't know Bag Master's state of mind. After giving her the spiritual medicine, he started thinking about how to proceed next.

Of course, he could just ignore it and let many things fade away with time, but Lin Qing wasn't that kind of person. In his opinion, regardless of whether the result was good or bad, he had to say it face-to-face to avoid any regrets.

But the problem was that Bag Master seemed to have no intention of seeing him at all.

Returning to his residence, Lin Qing wanted to cultivate, but he couldn't calm his mind that was entangled with various emotions.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to spend some time. If Bag Master really didn't want to see him, he would give up when the time came. If she was willing to see him, then everything would be fine.

So the next day, Lin Qing came to the door of Bag Master's shop again and transmitted his voice inside, hoping to see Bag Master.

Unsurprisingly, the door was still closed.

Lin Qing wasn't disappointed either. It was only the second day after all.

After that,

One day, two days, three days.

And so, a month passed. Lin Qing would come to see Master Pobai every day, hoping to meet her, but Master Pobai remained silent and refused to see him.

A month may seem long or short, but as Lin Qing saw that Master Pobai continued to keep her door closed, he began to consider giving up.

But after some thought, he decided to try harder.

And so, in the blink of an eye, another month passed, and Master Pobai's door remained tightly shut.

However, unlike before, Lin Qing now spoke more when he came, sometimes staying for a quarter of an hour. Although Master Pobai heard his words, she never responded.

On this day, after saying many things, Lin Qing left. Inside the house, Master Pobai was somewhat moved.

She thought to herself, Lin Qing is the head of the Lin family, and he only came to see me because he wanted to meet me. It seems cruel of me to keep my door closed. After all, what happened back then was not Lin Qing's fault. There shouldn't be any problem with him wanting to explain things to me.

But still, she did not open her door.

Days turned into weeks, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Qing had been coming here for three months. As time went on, he became more at peace, and the matter with Master Pobai no longer affected him.

On this day, when he came again, Lin Qing decided it would be his last time. If Master Pobai still did not open her door, then so be it.

"Master Pobai, I have only one purpose in coming here all this time, and that is to explain things to you. Avoiding things will not solve any problems. No matter what your attitude towards me is, I think it is not wrong for us to meet. You have always kept your door closed, and I have no choice, but I still want you to open it so that we can meet."

Lin Qing spoke sincerely, but after waiting for a while, the door did not open.

Lin Qing suddenly smiled, shook his head, and left.

He had completely let go in his heart. After persisting for three months and Master Pobai still refusing to meet him, it seemed that they were not meant to be.

As he walked further away, Lin Qing looked back with his last bit of hope, and then continued on with more determination.

As the head of the Lin family, he had already spent enough time on this. He would not come again.

Back at his residence, Lin Qing secluded himself. With the successful arrangement of the restrictions, the safety of the Lin family was assured, and he wholeheartedly devoted himself to cultivation, hoping to advance his cultivation to the mid-stage of the Gold Core realm as soon as possible.

As for Master Pobai, he would occasionally think of her at first, but as time went on, he truly let go.

What Lin Qing didn't know was that after he spoke sincerely that day, Master Pobai had already been moved and wanted to open the door to meet him.

However, she still had some hesitation in her heart, and as a result, she did not open the door until Lin Qing had left.

Originally, she had planned to personally find Lin Qing, but she suddenly discovered something that made her change her mind.

For a while, she was caught in even greater hesitation.

For several consecutive days, there were many cultivators passing by on the road from outside the mountain to the Lin family's mountain.

In the past, there were already quite a few cultivators on this road, but today there were more than twice as many, and each of them had a joyful expression, as if there was something happy waiting for them.

As for the reason, it was quite simple. They were all going to celebrate the birthday of the Lin family's ancestor.
