I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 367: Just Left and Returned

"Sloppy? I don't think so. We've already wasted enough time. Are we just going to let everything slip through our fingers? Although it's just a Gold Core divine sense, I am not willing to take any more risks. Success in the mission is good, but failure is also expected. We can continue next time. It would be extremely dangerous if we suffer losses here. Don't you know that we can't afford any more losses in Lan Prefecture?"

Upon hearing this, another mid-Gold Core cultivator remained silent, but expressed his anger, saying, "That Nascent Soul cultivator from Lan Prefecture is too cunning. Not only did he secretly delay our Nascent Soul cultivator, but he also sent someone to Zhong Prefecture for help. As a result, the righteous sects in Zhong Prefecture intervened, leaving us in Lan Prefecture with little time to spare. Now, we can't afford to invest more forces in Yun Prefecture. Indeed, we can't afford any more losses. Let's leave for now and plan our next move. As long as we're still alive, Yun Prefecture will eventually be ours."

When it came to the matter in Lan Prefecture, the faces of these three Gold Core cultivators darkened.

If everything had gone smoothly in Lan Prefecture, they would have already taken over Yun Prefecture. However, the righteous sects in Lan Prefecture were not so easily dealt with. Over the past few decades, one wave after another had risen, making it difficult for them, the demonic cultivators of Lan Prefecture, to handle.

If they hadn't already taken control of most of Yun Prefecture, they would have been recalled to Lan Prefecture long ago.

After deciding to leave, the three of them had nothing to tidy up. They immediately withdrew the various formations they had set up and left the inn as if nothing had happened.

The fastest way would have been to fly away from Chiyang Immortal City. With their cultivation levels, as long as they quickly distanced themselves, no one would be able to catch up.

But they hesitated for a moment. After all, what if this divine sense was just an accident? If they left in a conspicuous manner, they would truly expose themselves. It would be better to leave quietly, just as they had come.

Outside the inn, the three of them scanned the surrounding cultivators. Lin Qing had already concealed himself. Although he didn't know why the three of them had come down at the same time, he knew he couldn't expose himself.

After the three of them investigated and found no suspicious cultivators, they looked at each other with a hint of doubt.

But they had already decided to leave and didn't hesitate anymore. They walked along the streets of Chiyang Immortal City and headed out. Lin Qing followed behind, quietly tracking them. The three of them were indeed cautious, constantly scanning with their divine senses along the way. This made Lin Qing not dare to get too close or use his divine sense to investigate. After all, two of them were mid-Gold Core cultivators, and he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't be discovered.

As he followed them, Lin Qing was relieved to see that they were about to leave the city. Perhaps, as he had thought before, these three people were just passing through and had come to Chiyang Immortal City to purchase something. If that was the case, Lin Qing would be extremely happy. After all, he didn't want to confront them alone. It would be best if they left.

However, just before they were about to leave the city, the three of them turned around for some reason.

Lin Qing, feeling puzzled, followed them. But after walking for a while, he realized that something was wrong. The three of them were heading straight towards the center of the immortal city.

He was shocked.

The center of the immortal city was where Lin Zhidan was. Although Lin Zhidan was currently in the late Purple Mansion stage, he had no chance of winning against these three Gold Core cultivators.

Considering the strength of these three people, Lin Qing believed that only Lin Zhidan would attract their attention.

With this in mind, Lin Qing didn't have time to think. He took out a talisman and wrote something on it. Then, he ignited the talisman in his sleeve. This was a communication talisman to contact Lin Zhidan.

Although Lin Qing did not tell Lin Zhidan about his plan when they first entered the Chiyang Immortal City, he can't keep it a secret anymore. After all, if they target Lin Zhidan, his warning might give them some advantage.

Lin Qing's thinking is correct. The target of these three people is indeed Lin Zhidan.

Originally, the three of them were about to leave the city, but seeing that there was no movement along the way, they felt somewhat unwilling to leave like this. So they secretly discussed and decided to capture Lin Zhidan, and then use him to threaten Lin Qing. If Lin Qing comes out, they can join forces to deal with him, which would also reduce the strength of Yunzhou. If Lin Qing doesn't come out, it won't be a big problem. As for whether there will be any accidents when capturing Lin Zhidan, they are not afraid. Three Gold Core cultivators who are determined to leave are not so easily detained. Moreover, if there are any accidents, wouldn't it confirm their previous speculation? It would be a good explanation when they go back.

At this moment, as they walked towards the center of the Immortal City, Lin Qing's heart grew darker and darker. It seems that these three people are really going to deal with Lin Zhidan.

This makes Lin Qing somewhat disdainful. First, there was Tian Saodao, and now these three Gold Core cultivators. They are all powerful cultivators, yet they are only going after a junior.

Lin Zhidan is truly unfortunate.

However, Lin Qing is not too worried at the moment. One reason is that he has already warned Lin Zhidan, and the second reason is that he has already set up some means in advance.

After killing Tian Saodao and saving Lin Zhidan, Lin Qing thought to himself, what if this kind of thing happens again? This time it's Lin Zhidan, but next time it might be someone else from the Lin family.

So Lin Qing set up several third-grade formations in the luxurious mansion that originally belonged to Chiyang Daochang, then belonged to Hua Xiu, and later belonged to the Lin family.

With Lin Qing's current cultivation level, setting up third-grade formations is simple and straightforward.

Moreover, Lin Qing has integrated these several third-grade formations. Although they are still inferior to restrictions, it would still take some effort for ordinary Gold Core cultivators to crack them. By then, he can provide timely assistance or take the opportunity to escape.

Lin Qing didn't expect to have to use them so soon.

If his guess is correct, after he reminded Lin Zhidan, Lin Zhidan would hide. As long as these three Gold Core cultivators come to the mansion in the center of the Immortal City, he can activate the third-grade formation again, at least trapping them for a while.

Then Lin Qing can come out and leave with Lin Zhidan, or take the opportunity to deal with these three people.

These three demonic cultivators don't know all of this. They are now walking quickly towards the mansion in the center of the Immortal City. They soon arrived at the front of the mansion.

There are only two Lin family Qi Refining disciples at the entrance of the mansion. These three demonic cultivators directly broke in without even looking at them, and then used their divine senses to search recklessly.

In their hearts, a late-stage Purple Mansion cultivator should be easy to deal with.

Their search confirmed this. In a room in the center of the mansion, they immediately found Lin Zhidan's trace. What made them somewhat amused was that Lin Zhidan was actually sleeping soundly at this moment.

"Well, it seems that there are no surprises here. Let's capture him and leave." The cautious mid-stage Gold Core demonic cultivator relaxed and spoke.

"Let me do it." The early-stage Gold Core demonic cultivator volunteered.
