Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

“Originally, we were only going to Linxian City for other matters, but then I heard that Ning Yue’s family was looking for her,” he said.

“After asking around, we finally understood why.”

“It turned out that Ning Yue’s grandfather’s chronic illness had relapsed, and his time was running short, so he wanted her to return to inherit the Ning

Family’s legacy.”

“The Ning Family’s legacy?

“Didn’t Ning Daoyou previously—”

Lin Jing did not finish his sentence, but everyone understood.

Previously, Ning Yue had eloped with someone. Logically, being expelled from the family would have been considered a light punishment, and if such a thing happened in any other family, she would likely have been captured and put to death upon her return.

The fact that the Ning Family had not captured her could already be regarded as an act of magnanimity and mercy on their part.

“Could it be that the Ning Family’s talents have withered to such an extent that there are no other suitable candidates?”

Lin Jing asked, puzzled.

“It is more or less so. The talents of the Ning Family have dwindled over the past century, and they have gradually declined.”

“Especially in this generation, aside from Ning Yue, not a single person meets the criteria to inherit the Ning Family’s Alchemy Dao legacy.”

“The Ning Family is an Alchemy Dao noble house, naturally valuing alchemy cultivation above all, and the talent Ning Yue had displayed was already far beyond her peers.”

“Had it not been for her coming here, she would probably have been nurtured by the family by now and taken up the Inheritance Elixir Technique of the Ning Family.”

“Actually, there’s not only Ning Yue in the Ning Family; she also has two male cousins.”

“It’s just that their natural talent for Alchemy Dao was insufficient, and they spent their days indulging in drink and pleasure, with no ambition to improve themselves.”

“They caused trouble all over the place, relying on the Ning Family’s leftover reputation.”

“The old Patriarch of the Ning Family despised them utterly and naturally would not pass on the family legacy to them.”

When Wei Zhengqing reached this point, Yan Xiong suddenly interrupted, boiling with indignation:

“It was those two brats who secretly found people to plot against us.”

“When Old Yan gets back, I’ll skin them alive.”

Having said that, Yan Xiong picked up the wine from the table, poured himself a bowl, and drank it in one gulp.

“The more I think about it, the more stifled I feel.”

“Them?”

Lin Jing first glanced at Yan Xiong, seeing him simply drowning his sorrows in the drink and having no intention of continuing, then turned his head towards Wei Zhengqing.

“Just them.”

“We originally planned to visit the Ning Family, to inform the old Patriarch of

Ning Yue’s whereabouts, but we didn’t get to see the old Patriarch,” “Unexpectedly, we were spotted by those two brothers.”

“They recognized me, and evidently, they do not wish for Ning Yue to return.” “So, after we left, they ambushed us along the way with a group of their men.”

“If Ning Yue cannot return, then, without a successor, the Ning Family would have to choose from among those two.”

Yan Xiong slammed the table and said:

“With those two devious scoundrels in charge of the Ning Family’s legacy, I’m afraid the Ning Family would sooner or later be ruined in their hands.”

“So treacherous; if Wei Zheng hadn’t had a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage at the critical moment, both of us might have died right there.”

With that explanation, Lin Jing also understood.

No wonder Wei Zheng had returned with serious injuries.

Lin Jing thought for a moment, then suddenly asked:

“Will there be danger on the way back, will there be ambushes along the way?”

“You mean, will they set up an ambush for you along the way?” “In that regard, you have nothing to worry about, Brother Lin,”

Yan Xiong said with a smile:

“Old Wei, Miss Ning, and I have already discussed this. On our way back, we plan to take a detour to Qishan City.”

“There is a Teleportation Array within Qishan City that leads directly to Linxian

City. It’s a bit expensive, but it’s safe.”

“Once we are in Linxian City, they wouldn’t dare to try anything.”

“When we reach Linxian City, I will certainly deal with those two brats properly.”

“Big Bear!” Wei Zhengqing called out to Yan Xiong.

“You must remember not to act rashly when the time comes. Keep in mind that we are there to aid Ning Yue in returning to the Ning Family.”

At this point, Ning Yue spoke:

“Zhengqing, Yan Xiong, don’t worry.”

“Once we reach the family estate, I will definitely seek justice for you,”

The meal lasted until late at night, during which Luo Luo learned that Lin Jing would not be traveling with them and felt quite sad for a while.

In the end, it was Ning Yue who, with coaxing and trickery, lulled her to sleep.

“Lin Daoyou,” Ning Yue began.

“I am very grateful for the care you’ve provided during this time.”

“When you brought back the lost Luo Luo on the street, that was the first time.”

“Later, you saved my daughter and me from the jaws of the Flame Poison

Centipede; that was the second time.”

“Lin Daoyou, you’ve saved us twice.”

“Ning Yue is overwhelmed with gratitude,” Ning Yue said, bowing deeply to Lin Jing.

“Please, this shouldn’t be; Ning Daoyou, stand up,” Lin Jing hurriedly helped Ning Yue to her feet.

“Lin Daoyou, for the life-saving grace, I have nothing with which to repay…”

“Today, with Wei Zhengqing and Yan Xiong present, I would like to ask them to be witnesses.”

Lin Jing looked at Ning Yue, not knowing what she intended to do.

“Why the need for witnesses…”

Lin Jing was puzzled.

Even Wei Zhengqing and Yan Xiong were confused, looking towards Ning Yue, unclear about what she was planning to do next.

Under the gaze of the three men, Ning Yue took out a Jade Slip, saying:

“This is the Alchemy Dao method passed down in my Ning Family. Didn’t you ask me about this before?”

“With this Alchemy Dao method, your efficiency in alchemy will be greatly enhanced, and it will also reduce the consumption of your Divine Sense energy.”

“I intend to pass this Alchemy Dao method to you.”

“This…”

Lin Jing hesitated for a moment before speaking.

“Ning Daoyou, as far as I know, the Alchemy Dao methods of Pill Dao families are never passed on to outsiders. Is it really appropriate for you to do this?”

“Besides, even if you agree, what about the many people in the Ning Family?

Will they agree?”

At this point, Wei Zhengqing also frowned and turned to Ning Yue, saying: “You must think this through; are you sure you want to do this?”

“This is related to the inheritance of the Ning Family. As Lin Brother said, you may want to give it to Lin Brother, but what about the people in the Ning Family? What about your grandfather? They probably won’t agree.”

“If this causes trouble for Lin Brother, wouldn’t that be harming him?”

Yan Xiong also joined in dissuading her: “Miss Ning, this is no trivial matter; please think it over.”

Ning Yue shook her head and spoke again:

“I have thought it over.”

“Even though the Alchemy Dao method is precious…”

“Compared to Lin Brother’s life-saving grace, it is nothing.”

“Besides, this Alchemy Dao method is not the entirety of the Pill Dao inheritance.”

“As long as I acquire the true Inheritance Elixir Technique of the Ning Family and become the heir of the Ning Family’s Pill Dao inheritance, I can decide to pass on this Alchemy Dao method to others.”

“Of course, the prerequisite is that it cannot be passed on to enemies or members of other Pill Dao families.”

“Lin Daoyou, please accept it without worries.”

Wei Zhengqing frowned in concern, “Do you have the confidence that you can inherit the Pill Dao of the Ning Family? Your two cousins will not let you succeed so easily.”

Ning Yue nodded confidently:

“A few days ago, when I produced the Pure Body Restoration Pill, I felt that my understanding of the Pill Dao had deepened significantly.”

“If nothing unexpected happens, I’m now a third-grade Pill Master.”

“Once I reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, I’ll be able to try making third-stage Elixir Medicines.”

“A third-grade Pill Master, my lord!” Yan Xiong exclaimed.

Ning Yue nodded in affirmation.

“So…”

“That’s why I have absolute confidence in inheriting the Pill Dao of the Ning

Family..”
