Chapter 63: Departure

Watching Lin Qing leave, Fellow Daoist Wang pondered. Last time, Lin Qing bought a lot of talismans and didn't hear about them being sold in the market. This time, he bought even more. Perhaps he has some other intentions. Since there are no Foundation Building Pills this time, he must be planning to leave.

That's fine, Fellow Daoist Wang thought. He himself cannot leave Xuan Yu Pavilion in the short term. Lin Qing can go as far as he wants. This way, his own affairs won't be exposed.

When Lin Qing returned home, his wives naturally showed great concern and quickly asked about the Foundation Building Pills. Lin Qing only said that he didn't manage to buy any and didn't say anything else.

After two days, Lin Qing heard some news.

It was said that Blood Sea Old Demon attacked a Foundation Building cultivator outside the market and killed him. After killing him, Blood Sea Old Demon also took away the Foundation Building Pills that the cultivator had just auctioned off. This news once again worried the shop owners in Xuan Yu Pavilion, but fortunately, Wuji Sect did not block the market this time.

However, this incident undoubtedly dealt a blow to Xuan Yu Pavilion. Blood Sea Old Demon is active around Xuan Yu Pavilion, and his ambitions are not small.

Since that day, Lin Qing continued to practice and open his shop every day, but he was always waiting for the return of his two sons.

Over a year passed, and it wasn't until Lin Qing turned eighty-five that Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan finally returned.

However, Lin Xuzhe had lost an arm.

"Dad, it's nothing. We were just ambushed carelessly, but in the end, Xuyuan and I killed them all." Lin Xuzhe said casually, but Lin Qing knew that it was probably not that simple.

But Lin Qing didn't ask any further. It was enough that they had returned.

"You've worked hard," Lin Qing said.

"Dad, we went to four different markets in a row," Lin Xuyuan said.

"Oh?" Lin Qing was a little surprised.

"Dad, not only did we go to Ziqing Market and Chiyang Immortal City, but we also went to two other markets opened by other cultivation families. We investigated all of them," Lin Xuzhe said at this time.

"What were the results?" Lin Qing asked.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xuzhe said, "Dad, we think Ziqing Market is the best. The two markets opened by the cultivation families are similar to Xuan Yu Pavilion, and Chiyang Immortal City is big, but there are too many cultivators inside. It is said that many demonic cultivators are robbing cultivators there. It's a chaotic place. Ziqing Market is different. It is jointly opened by Qingfeng Sect and Xianxia Sect. It is not only three times larger than Xuan Yu Pavilion, but also safe. It is filled with righteous cultivators, and the rent is reasonable."

After hearing Lin Xuzhe's words, Lin Qing nodded, and then said, "Initially, I sent you to investigate for the sake of opening a branch, but now, I have decided that our whole family will leave."

"Leave?" Lin Xuzhe was somewhat surprised. After staying in Xuan Yu Pavilion for so many years, he had become familiar with many places, and suddenly leaving made him feel uncomfortable.

"Yes, we are leaving. The main reason is that I want to achieve Foundation Building, and staying here is of no benefit," Lin Qing explained.

"I see." Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan nodded. Then Lin Xuyuan looked at Lin Qing and said happily, "Dad, let's go to Ziqing Market, right?"

"Well..." Lin Qing hesitated.

Upon hearing what the two brothers said, Ziqing Market is indeed the most suitable for him, but Lin Qing has other plans.

The decline of Xuan Yu Pavilion in recent years, is it really just because of Blood Sea Old Demon? He has heard that many shop owners who left Xuan Yu Pavilion went to Ziqing Market. Now that Ziqing Market is thriving and Xuan Yu Pavilion is declining, will Wuji Sect really sit idly by? The current auction is probably just the beginning. Who knows what will happen in the future?

Perhaps it's time to stay away from the disputes between these sects.

Let them fight among themselves in the market. He decided to go directly to the Chiyang Immortal City. It was larger in scale, and it shouldn't be difficult to find Foundation Building Dan there. Although it was chaotic, he had some self-defense power. Moreover, compared to the second-grade spiritual veins in the Ziqing Market, the Chiyang Immortal City was located on a third-grade spiritual vein, which would be helpful for his breakthrough to Foundation Building.

"We're going to the Chiyang Immortal City," Lin Qing said.

"The Chiyang Immortal City?" Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan looked at each other in surprise. They didn't expect their father to go to the Chiyang Immortal City. But to be honest, they actually preferred the Chiyang Immortal City a little more than the stable Ziqing Market.

It was no longer just a market, but a real cultivation city. When they entered it for the first time, they were shocked and felt that it was the place where cultivators should go.

During dinner, Lin Qing told his family about his decision, and Chao Yun was somewhat worried.

"At this point, husband, our family is going to the Chiyang Immortal City, which is a long journey. That's not the problem. Even if Xuen and Wen come back, if they can't find us, we will lose contact in the future."

Lin Qing's heart warmed, and he looked at Chao Yun and said, "I naturally remember that. Before we leave, I will pay thirty years' rent. As long as they come back, the house here will still be there, and they will know where we went."

"Okay, that's good," Chao Yun nodded and didn't say anything more.

[Congratulations, host, for experiencing the aura of heaven and earth. Formation experience +20]

[Formation Master: Second-grade middle rank (144639/400000)]

[Bamboo Elemental Root: Top grade (49703/50000)]

[Fire Elemental Root: Extreme grade (90005/150000)]

Looking at his Goldfinger panel, after so many years, all aspects had improved, with the greatest improvement being his formation experience.

This was because in addition to Goldfinger, he could also gain experience from daily formation making. Moreover, after studying those two formation books, his experience increased even more.

Thinking about what was to come, Lin Qing couldn't fall asleep.

Because of the Blood Sea Old Demon, it was already somewhat dangerous to leave Xuan Yu Market, let alone such a long journey. Although the Baibao Tower sold flying artifacts, Lin Qing could barely use them, but he felt that using a flying artifact was not as good as not using one. Wouldn't that just make him a target?

As for how to leave, Lin Qing thought that he would probably have to disguise himself as an ordinary person, just like Qingmu Ji. However, unlike Qingmu Ji, now that his whole family was going, it would definitely attract attention, so some planning was needed.

When he last saw Fellow Daoist Wang, Lin Qing had already thought about these issues. At that time, he had bought a lot of things, and now he could use them.

The next day, Lin Qing took out many things and handed them to Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan. After giving them some instructions, Lin Xuzhe and Lin Xuyuan left with the items. They had been away for several years, so leaving was not a problem.

Next, Lin Qing sold the formations in his shop, filled the passages of the two houses, and paid the rent for the next thirty years. Then he bought several storage bags and packed up everything he needed in the house. After that, the whole family walked out of Xuan Yu Market like this.

Those who were familiar with Lin Qing saw this scene and knew that Lin Qing was leaving Xuan Yu Market.

Many cultivators felt a chill in their hearts. Lin Qing, as a second-grade formation master, had a good business in his shop. Now that even he was leaving, did he hear something? Many shop owners became worried.

Not long after, many shop owners, like Lin Qing, left Xuan Yu Market. Although Wuji Sect reduced the rent, the number of shop owners continued to decrease. The excitement brought by the auction only lasted for a few days, and it was still quiet afterwards.
