Chapter 341: Ru Yue

Upon hearing Lin Qing's question, the owner of the pill shop, who didn't recognize Lin Qing as the owner of the alchemy shop, glanced at Lin Qing strangely and said, "You've been away for quite a long time. It seems like you haven't opened your shop for a while a few years ago, but then it reopened, and there was even a child. It's been about three or four years now, and it's open every day."

"Wow!" Lin Qing took a deep breath and asked another question, "But it seems like business isn't doing so well."

"You're right, I find it strange too. Sometimes, there's not a single customer in a day. I don't know how the people inside make a living. Maybe they just want to cultivate and live here."

"I see."

Lin Qing nodded and bid farewell to the pill shop.

Arriving at the door of the talisman shop, there were a few first-grade talismans sparsely placed inside, which didn't attract much attention. Apart from the talismans, there was no one inside.

Lin Qing wanted to knock on the door to get attention, but then thought better of it and quietly walked to the back.

"Mother, I've written thirty characters today, look!"

"Let me see, you've written really well." Even before reaching the back, Lin Qing heard the voices of a little girl and a woman.

"Daughter, you write really well, but this character is wrong, it should be..."

The two voices continued to exchange, while Lin Qing stood still. In front of him, an elegant woman was tutoring a girl in writing. Although Lin Qing had only seen her once before on the beach, he immediately recognized her as the Bag Master without a doubt.

Seeing the affectionate way they addressed each other as mother and daughter, Lin Qing was momentarily at a loss.

"Mother, who is he?" Suddenly, the little girl looked at Lin Qing curiously, and the Bag Master also raised her head at this moment.

In fact, she had noticed Lin Qing a long time ago, but she had been pretending not to notice.

"Could this child be...?" Lin Qing looked at the Bag Master and couldn't help but ask, hoping to hear the identity of the little girl from her.

Unexpectedly, the Bag Master treated him with indifference and coldly said, "Fellow Daoist, if you want to buy talismans, please go to the front."

Lin Qing was not at all annoyed by these words. At this moment, he looked at the Bag Master and made a move that she never expected.

In his excitement, Lin Qing suddenly stepped forward and tightly hugged the Bag Master.

"What are you doing!"

The Bag Master exclaimed in surprise, not knowing how to react, and tried to push Lin Qing away.

But the more she pushed, the tighter Lin Qing held on. He knew that there were too many misunderstandings between him and the Bag Master, but it didn't matter. The Bag Master was willing to give birth to this child and wait for him to return. Lin Qing didn't want to let go anymore.

"Let go of me."

The Bag Master tried to break free, but she didn't use any spells, so how could she break free?

The little girl on the side was a bit at a loss. Seeing her mother being hugged, she wanted to cry but held back her tears.

Although she was a cultivator at the Gold Core stage, she was still human.

When Podaishi discovered that she had Lin Qing's flesh and blood, she was initially unable to accept it, as she had never thought about such a thing. But afterwards, she resolutely decided to give birth to this child. One important factor was Lin Qing's visit that lasted for three months, which made her feel that Lin Qing was sincere.

But afterwards, Lin Qing never came again, which disappointed her greatly.

Later, she kept the door open, waiting for Lin Qing to come, but she never expected to wait until now, when the child had grown so big, for Lin Qing to finally arrive.

"Mother!"

Suddenly, hearing the child's voice, Podaishi stopped crying, and Lin Qing let go of her.

"Mother is fine, don't worry."

Podaishi said to the little girl, and then reached out to pick her up.

Seeing Podaishi holding the little girl, Lin Qing's eyes filled with tenderness, but afterwards she felt somewhat guilty.

"This is truly my fault. I didn't know that we had a child. I only came today. I hope you can forgive me," Lin Qing said.

Podaishi held the little girl and coldly asked, "Is the Lin family village very far away? It seems like you haven't left Lin Family Mountain in these years. I think you intentionally avoided seeing me."

"Absolutely not!"

Lin Qing immediately denied, "I have been in seclusion for these years, and I only came out recently because of the 300th birthday celebration. That's when I found out about this."

Podaishi didn't say anything, and at this moment, Lin Qing said again, "Can I hold the child? She has grown so big, and as her father, this is the first time I've seen her."

Podaishi looked at the child and shook her head, saying, "The child is scared of you. Maybe later."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing was not disappointed, but rather showed even more joy.

However, after showing her joy, Lin Qing was momentarily unsure of what to say or do. She stood in Podaishi's house, pacing back and forth, sometimes staring at one place, sometimes staring at another.

After a long time, Lin Qing finally sat down on a chair in the house and began to contemplate.

If it weren't for this child, he and Podaishi probably wouldn't have any connection anymore. But with the child, everything was different. It transformed their fleeting affection into a deeply connected relationship.

Lin Qing was very fond of Podaishi. If he could marry her, it would be perfect. But what did Podaishi think? To be honest, Lin Qing couldn't be sure.

Looking at the two of them, Lin Qing thought that he could only make up for it in the future.

From that day on, Lin Qing came to this shop every day. Podaishi neither welcomed nor rejected his arrival, but as time went on, she would show a hint of a smile when she saw him.

In this way, time flew by and a year passed. The relationship between Lin Qing and Podaishi became closer, especially because they had a child, giving them many common topics.

Lin Qing also learned Podaishi's real name: Ruyue.

It was a somewhat dreamy name. According to her, she was an orphan at first, and later joined a sect to cultivate immortality. Although her master also gave her a name, she chose the name Ruyue for herself, and now that the sect no longer existed, she still preferred to be called Ruyue.

Not only Ruyue, but Lin Qing also knew the child's name. Her nickname was Yuer, and her full name was Lin Xuyu.

As for their aptitude, it was astonishingly good. Ruyue herself had the Heavenly Spirit Root, and Lin Qing's aptitude didn't need to be mentioned. Not only did they both have the Heavenly Spirit Root, but they also had the Heavenly Water Body. Their child also had an astonishing Heavenly Spirit Root. If nothing unexpected happened in the future, there was a great possibility that she would reach the Gold Core stage, just like Ruyue and Lin Qing.

And in this past year, the misunderstandings between them had been resolved, and with Lin Qing's gentle treatment, Ruyue gradually accepted Lin Qing.

On this night, Lin Qing didn't go back as usual, but stayed in the shop.
