Chapter 417: Chapter 117 Past Events
“Originally, I had thought myself certainly dood to die, but just then, support from the three major sects arrived…”
“That’s why I survived.”
Lin Jing looked at Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing, feeling sowhat nostalgic.
The two of them had been raised by their grandfather since they were very young, sharing a deep bond with him, much like Lin Jing had with his own grandfather.
Now, their grandfather too had passed away.
Leaving behind just the two siblings…
After listening to Li Qingqing’s recount, Li Tangyu gazed into the distance, his eyes unfocused, as if reminiscing about sothing…
A mont later.
Li Tangyu turned back to Li Qingqing and continued to ask,
“Then what happened? How did you get here?”
Li Qingqing replied,
“After we were rescued, we were taken to the stronghold of the three major sects, where we lived for less than half a year, before the Howling Sky Wolf Clan attacked again…”
“Thus, the three major sects arranged for us to evacuate and brought us to this Demonic Monster Sea.”
“After arriving at the Demonic Monster Sea, I knew that you, brother, said you were heading to the Eastern Spirit Realm, and you would definitely pass through this sea.”
“I wanted to find you, so I left the group alone and set out to look for you…”
“And so, Little Sparrow and I have been drifting in the Demonic Monster Sea for several years.”
“Until not long ago, when I was captured by the Black Shark Gang and t you all…”
Li Tangyu looked at Li Qingqing with an expression of distress on his face,
“How could you be so foolish? The Demonic Monster Sea is so complex, how could you just barge in?”
Nevertheless, Li Qingqing smiled and said,
“Although I faced so setbacks, the outco was good. Not only did I et you, brother, but I also t Brother Lin Jing…”
“Seeing you both, I’m truly happy.”
With that said, Li Qingqing turned her gaze to Lin Jing,
“Brother Lin Jing…”
“What exactly happened when you went into the Demon Race Secret Realm?”
“When the Demon Race Secret Realm was in chaos, not many people escaped, and I thought you were gone in there too.”
“How did you escape?”
“And your cultivation…”
“You were only in the Qi Refinent Realm originally, but now you’ve beco a Golden Core Immortal. How did you do it?”
Li Qingqing looked at Lin Jing with a series of questions.
At this mont, Li Tangyu also turned to Lin Jing, saying,
“Yes…”
“When I left back then, Brother Lin, you should have been at the ninth level of Qi Refinent, right? How did you advance to the Golden Core Stage so quickly?”
Lin Jing then offered a wry smile and said,
“About my cultivation level, I’ve actually been hiding it from you since the beginning.”
Li Qingqing looked at Lin Jing with a puzzled expression and said,
“Could it be that you were already a Golden Core Immortal back then, Brother Lin Jing?”
Li Tangyu looked at Lin Jing just as puzzled.
Lin Jing shook his head and explained,
“In fact, my cultivation level was indeed not high at the beginning, and most of the ti, it was between Qing Qing and Qing Ling.”
“However, I had consud many Pure Elixirs while cultivating, which greatly accelerated my practice.”
“To cover up the abnormal speed of my cultivation, I’ve been hiding my true level all this ti.”
Now.
Facing Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing again, there was no longer a need for those past concealnts, and so, Lin Jing decided to reveal everything.
Of course, except for the matter of the System Space.
The System Space was his greatest secret, which he couldn’t share with anyone, no matter who they were.
After hearing this, Li Qingqing then expressed her doubts,
“Pure Elixirs…”
“Where did you get so many Pure Elixirs? Could it be that you bought them from the Elixir Valley Heir?”
“But the elixirs from the Elixir Valley Heir are also very limited, and besides, there are so many people fighting over them…”
Li Tangyu, as if he had realized sothing, looked at Lin Jing with gleaming eyes,
“The Elixir Valley Heir hasn’t been around for very long…”
“And Brother Lin, you ca to Nanshan Market around that sa ti…”
At this point, Li Qingqing suddenly had an epiphany and said,
“Brother Lin Jing…”
“Could it be that Elixir Valley Heir is you?”
Lin Jing looked at them and then nodded,
“Yes…”
“That Elixir Valley Heir was indeed an identity I assud.”
Li Qingqing, extrely surprised, responded,
“I never imagined that the Elixir Valley Heir would be you, Brother Lin Jing…”
“Brother Lin Jing…”
“How were you able to refine so many Pure Elixirs?”
Li Tangyu seed to understand and thus, he spoke to Li Qingqing,
“Do you rember the rumor about the Elixir Valley Heir that was spread before?”
Li Qingqing thought for a mont and then nodded,
“Of course, I rember…”
“It’s said that Elixir Valley might have inherited the Ancient Alchemy Path of an ancient alchemy family.”
“That’s why their elixir production rate of Pure Elixirs is much higher than other alchemists.”
Li Tangyu nodded and said,
“Right, the alchemy techniques of the ancient alchemy family…”
“I only learned sothing after entering this Demonic Monster Sea…”
“Inside the Inner Sea of the Demonic Monster Sea, there once was an incredibly powerful ancient alchemy family, but for so reason, this family began to decline ten thousand years ago.”
“This decline continued until a thousand years ago; it wasn’t until a thousand years ago that the ancient alchemy family was completely wiped out.”
“And that ancient alchemy family was surnad Lin…”
“As for Brother Lin, his last na is also Lin…”
Upon hearing this, Li Qingqing looked at Lin Jing in disbelief:
“Lin Jing, could it be that you are the heir of the ancient alchemical Lin Family?”
Lin Jing then said:
“I guess so…”
“Actually, I didn’t know myself before. It was only after an accident that I found out…”
Li Qingqing nodded and said:
“No wonder, so that’s how it is…”
After speaking, Li Qingqing continued to ask:
“But even if you, Brother Lin Jing, were hiding your cultivation back then, you probably weren’t at the Golden Core Stage, facing the invasion of the Howling Sky Wolf Clan, it would have been difficult to ensure your own safety, so how did you manage to escape?”
Lin Jing sighed and said:
“Ah…”
“This matter is indeed sowhat complicated.”
“Actually, this matter started when we entered the Demon Race Secret Realm…”
…
…
Subsequently, Lin Jing narrated the incident that had taken place within the Demon Race Secret Realm to both Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing, the siblings.
As they listened to Lin Jing’s story, they occasionally sighed and at other tis grew angry…
They had not expected the matters to have been so bizarre.
Eventually, Lin Jing bluntly said:
“So, I never actually encountered the Howling Sky Wolf Clan in the beginning. I was taken away by Qing Ling.”
“In the end, I was directly transported to this Demonic Monster Sea.”
After hearing this, Li Qingqing expressed her concern:
“Does that an Elder Bai, Elder Yu, Zhang Yuan and the others are now in a slumber inside the Demon Race Secret Realm…”
“When will we be able to see them again?”
Lin Jing shook his head and said:
“I don’t know…”
“But if our cultivation is insufficient, we probably won’t even be able to reach Qinghuang Peak, so we can only wait until our cultivation has improved before trying again.”
In contrast, Li Tangyu was focused on another issue.
“The Zhang Family Patriarch always seed very nice, and even taught us for a while when we were young.”
“But I never expected that he would turn out to be so cruel and heartless…”
“For the sake of survival, he could even abandon his own family, his own kin.”
Then, Li Tangyu turned to Li Qingqing, his eyes full of unwavering resolve:
“I can use any despicable ans to achieve my goals.”
“But the one thing I cannot do is forsake my kin.”
Li Qingqing then looked at Li Tangyu and said:
“Brother…”
“What exactly did you go through?”
“Why have you beco the very demon cultivator you always despised?”
Lin Jing also looked at Li Tangyu and asked:
“Brother Li…”
“What exactly did you experience after you left, to beco what you are now?”
Li Tangyu’s brows furrowed, and he seed reluctant to talk about his past experiences.
However, when he turned his head and saw the concerned and pained expression in Li Qingqing’s eyes, the resistance in his heart lessened by quite a lot.
Thus, after making up his mind, Li Tangyu slowly began:
“Actually, my journey to the Eastern Spirit Realm did not go smoothly…”
But no sooner had he spoken these words…
…Li Tangyu’s body suddenly erupted with a massive amount of Demonic Qi, which then transford into arrows that pierced through him from inside his body…
This Demonic Qi, seemingly beyond Li Tangyu’s control, continued to surge within his body relentlessly.
Each ti these arrows of Demonic Qi passed through Li Tangyu, they brought him imnse pain.
Li Tangyu could only grit his teeth, emitting low growls unwillingly, as if he had no way of dealing with this Demonic Qi.
“Brother…”
“What’s happened to you?”
Seeing this, Li Qingqing imdiately panicked, standing up quickly and rushing to Li Tangyu’s side to find out what was going on.
However, Li Tangyu stretched out his hand to stop Li Qingqing from coming any closer.
“Don’t co over…”
Li Tangyu roared this out.
It was clear that he was in great agony.
This roar startled Li Qingqing, causing her to freeze in place.
Afterward, Li Tangyu turned to Lin Jing and said:
“Brother Lin… please take Qingqing and leave first, give so ti, do not disturb for now.”
“I can handle it myself.”
Seeing the situation, Lin Jing also frowned deeply.
But right now, neither he nor Li Qingqing knew anything. If they rashly interfered, who knew what consequences it might bring.
Since Li Tangyu had said so, he must have had his own plan.
Therefore, Lin Jing nodded, then motioned for Li Qingqing to leave the room with him.
At this mont, Li Qingqing looked at Li Tangyu with a face full of worry.
But Li Tangyu had already begun to sit cross-legged, with a large amount of Demonic Qi emanating from his body, enveloping him in a cloud of Demonic Mist.
Clearly, the process was extrely painful, and he did not want them to see him in this state.
Seeing this, Lin Jing did not linger any longer.
So he said to Li Tangyu:
“Brother Li, if you need anything, just speak up, we’ll be waiting outside for you.”
But Li Tangyu, suppressing his pain, managed to squeeze out one word:
“Okay…”
Soon after, Lin Jing led Li Qingqing out of the room…
