I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 358: Belonging to the Lin Family

"Lord Qin, have you reached a decision?"

Three days later, the four elders from Tongshan arrived on time and spoke to Lord Qin without any courtesy.

Lord Qin appeared more confident than three days ago. He smiled slightly and shook his head, saying, "I'm sorry, after discussing it, we have decided that you should find a more powerful sect. Our sect is too small to accommodate all of you."

"Hmph, it seems like you've become confused in your old age."

The mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator was somewhat surprised, but then his whole demeanor changed, and he said menacingly, "The four of us from Tongshan are willing to join your Qingfeng Sect, but it's a matter of giving you face and giving you a chance to discuss it. You've lived for so long, how can you be so clueless? Let me tell you, the four of us are definitely joining, whether you agree or not!"

After saying this, the four elders from Tongshan looked at Lord Qin together, as if they were about to rush forward if he said even half a word.

"Oh, what if Lin disagrees?"

Just then, a person walked out from behind the screen in the room, and it was Lin Qing.

Upon seeing Lin Qing suddenly appear, Lord Qin showed a slight smile, but the four elders from Tongshan looked at each other. When they entered this room for the conversation, they had used their divine sense to search, and there was no one else present.

Among them, the mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed suddenly, but he was not willing to give up so easily.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the senior Lin, the head of the Lin family. Senior Lin is powerful, and naturally, we dare not say much. However, we only want to join the Qingfeng Sect, and we have no intention of offending the Lin family. I wonder why the head of the Lin family won't let us join?"

Lin Qing smiled and said, "In the past, I wouldn't have interfered, but now the Qingfeng Sect belongs to our Lin family. As the head of the Lin family, of course, I can have a say."

"Belongs to the Lin family?"

The mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator looked at Lord Qin fiercely. How could he not understand that Lord Qin had done something in the past three days?

He wanted to say more, but Lin Qing released his divine sense. Although he was only at the sixth level of the Gold Core stage, with the help of the Goldfinger, his divine sense was already on par with the later stage of the Gold Core stage. Under the pressure of his powerful divine sense, the four elders from Tongshan didn't dare to say anything and immediately left the Qingfeng Sect, not daring to stay for even a moment.

Lin Qing watched their departing figures and sat down in the chair.

Two days ago, Lord Qin had approached him and said that he was willing to give the Qingfeng Sect to the Lin family. Lin Qing was surprised at the time, but after hearing Lord Qin's words, he understood the reason.

As for the Qingfeng Sect belonging to the Lin family, he naturally agreed. With this, the entire Zhao Kingdom, except for some small cultivation families, would belong to the Lin family. Although they still had to face the demonic path, Lin Qing could still protect the Zhao Kingdom.

"Senior Lin, please."

Lord Qin personally poured a cup of tea for Lin Qing.

Lin Qing smiled and accepted the tea, drinking it.

In the following period of time, all the cultivators in the Zhao Kingdom knew about the affiliation of the Qingfeng Sect with the Lin family. The sect leader and the cultivator Lin Xutai from the Lin family were in charge.

Regarding this, no one dared to voice any objections. However, many cultivators couldn't help but sigh. In the current situation of the invasion of the demonic path, the integration of various forces was happening faster and faster.

It seemed as if a certain signal had been activated. After the Qingfeng Sect became affiliated with the Lin family, all the remaining forces in the Yunzhou region began to integrate. Major forces were frequently changing. According to what Lin Qing knew, powerful sects like the Thunder Sword Sect in the Central Yunzhou had reached some kind of agreement with the Tianjian Sect in Dali, and the Tianjian Sect had completely merged with the Thunder Sword Sect. The Mountain Beast Sect in Dali had also merged with a beast-taming sect in the Central Yunzhou.

Others, like the Endless Pleasure Sect, had various relationships with forces from the Central Yunzhou.

This was not necessarily a bad thing. At least it could better integrate forces and provide more resistance against the demonic path.

While the forces in the Yunzhou region were undergoing frequent changes, the demonic path in the Lanzhou region remained quiet. It seemed that they were really going to remain deadlocked like this. This made many secluded cultivators happy, but it also made many cultivators who cared about the Yunzhou region feel distressed. At this rate, who knew when they would be able to drive away the demonic path.

In the blink of an eye, three more years had passed, making it five years since the initial invasion of the demonic path.

During these five years, apart from the initial major battle, both sides had maintained peace. And in these five years, the entire Lower Yunzhou had undergone tremendous changes.

The Chu Kingdom in Dali, which was originally close to the Central Yunzhou, had now been completely occupied by various forces from the Central Yunzhou. Those cultivators from the Chu Kingdom who had originally wanted to enter the Central Yunzhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry after such a change. The Wei Kingdom and Yan Kingdom had also become the world of cultivators from the Central Yunzhou. Only the Zhao Kingdom, with Lin Qing at the mid-Gold Core stage and the situation of scarce resources, managed to barely withstand the pressure.

As for Yue, Lin Qing did not expose her and kept her hidden all along.

Although the Lin family had withstood the pressure, the Chiyang Immortal City of the Lin family now accommodated nearly twenty thousand scattered cultivators. The Lin family had no reason to refuse this, as it was originally a gathering place for scattered cultivators. They couldn't shut others out.

Because Chiyang Immortal City was close to the border between the Zhao Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom and far from the demonic path, even with so many scattered cultivators now, the number of cultivators was still increasing.

Because of this, the Lin family made various changes.

Originally, Chiyang Immortal City was divided into an inner city and an outer city, with the inner city being expensive individual residences and the outer city being crowded self-built residences. Now that there were so many people, they simply abolished the division between the inner and outer cities and built unified rental houses for everyone. Not only could they accommodate these cultivators after such a transformation, but the rent had also tripled.

With the gathering of a large number of cultivators, Chiyang Immortal City had become unprecedentedly prosperous.

There were almost monthly large-scale auctions, and various shops were densely packed in the city. Chiyang Immortal City, which was once looked down upon by some major forces, had now invested heavily in developing the market.

In the city, not to mention third-grade magical artifacts, even talismans had been auctioned off at one of the auctions. The prosperity was evident.

On this day, a person walked in from outside the city. He had a fierce and evil appearance, and when some cultivators used their divine sense to investigate, they couldn't detect his cultivation level, which surprised them.

As this person entered the city and saw the crowded scene, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

"It's so big, it might be a bit difficult to handle."

This person thought to himself, but still patiently walked through the city, his expression becoming more contemplative.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter. I'll just do what I came here for. Besides, I have old grudges to settle. This matter must be done. Moreover, with the Diamond Bracelet, what is there to fear?"

A hint of ruthlessness appeared on this person's face, and he immediately flew towards the center of Chiyang Immortal City.
