Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

“We had already agreed to come over together…”

“But just as we were about to leave, Steward Cheng from Yuebaolou came…”

“Steward Cheng…”

Liu Yiyuan frowned as he spoke.

“Yes, Steward Cheng…” the Pill Master surnamed Wang said.

“Steward Cheng found Lin Jing; it seemed like Steward Zheng, for some unknown reason, wanted to arrange for Lin Jing to do something.”

“With Steward Cheng present, I didn’t dare to say much at the time…”

At this moment, Liu Yiyuan’s father suddenly spoke up:

“That’s not right…”

“Steward Zheng should be exploring the Demon Race Secret Realm with the other Real Ones at this time; how could he arrange tasks for him?”

“Could it be that Steward Cheng has discovered our plan?”

“Or is there some other reason…”

“Father, could it be that Steward Zheng had arranged it beforehand…” Liu Yiyuan spoke up.

“That’s unlikely…”

Liu Yiyuan’s father said, then continued to sink into contemplation.

At that moment, the Pill Master surnamed Wang interrupted:

“Real One Liu, Young Master Liu…”

“Steward Zheng came and found trouble with Lin Jing as soon as he arrived; this time, could it be the same…”

Having said that, the Pill Master surnamed Wang looked at both of them.

“That matter should have already ended; it shouldn’t be like this…” Liu Yiyuan said, frowning.

“Did you not ask Steward Cheng what he wanted with Lin Jing?” asked Liu Yiyuan, continuing to press the Pill Master surnamed Wang.

The Pill Master surnamed Wang replied:

“I’m just a minor figure, not bold enough to inquire further…”

“However, after they left, I stayed waiting at the entrance of Yuebaolou…”

“But even after a long while, Lin Jing still did not come out.”

“Worried you both might become anxious, I thought I’d come and inform Real One Liu and Young Master Liu first, to see what we should do next…”

“Thus, I came over…”

“But on the way here, I ran into that bandit cultivator by bad luck…”

“Fortunately, he was only robbing and did not harbor any intention to kill me…”

After listening to the Pill Master surnamed Wang’s words, Liu Yiyuan bowed his head in thought…

After a long while, still without any clue, Liu Yiyuan then asked his father:

“Father, what should we do next…”

After thinking for a moment, Liu Yiyuan’s father spoke up:

“It seems our plan this time has failed…”

“Never mind…”

“Let’s forget about it for now; let’s go back, and we’ll find another opportunity in the future…”

“Alright…”

Although feeling unwilling, Liu Yiyuan couldn’t do much when faced with such an unexpected turn of events.

Especially since the Cleansing Spirit Flower rootstock, which was meant to lure Lin Jing, had been snatched away as well.

This made Liu Yiyuan even more frustrated, but with his father present,

and considering that the bandit cultivator had escaped from his own hands, Liu Yiyuan was in no position to lash out and instead had to first contain his emotions.

“Let’s go…”

Having said that, Liu Yiyuan’s father rose on his flying sword.

Liu Yiyuan and the Pill Master surnamed Wang did likewise.

Although the Pill Master surnamed Wang had sustained severe injuries just before, during this time he had taken a Wound Healing Elixir and had been quietly regulating his breath.

He had regained some strength from his injuries by now and was able to fly on his sword, although perhaps a bit more slowly than usual.

Just as the three were preparing to leave,

“Boom”

suddenly a loud rumble came, followed by shaking of the ground. Then the three simultaneously felt a powerful aura emanating from the depths of the mountain range.

“What has happened?”

Liu Yiyuan quickly looked towards the direction from which the voice came.

Liu Yiyuan’s father and the surnamed Wang Pill Master also turned their heads simultaneously to look in the direction of the voice.

Even Lin Jing in the System Space felt it through Observation Mode,

and then he quickly controlled the observation perspective to ascend, looking towards the direction from which the voice originated.

However…

Even when he raised the observation perspective to the highest, Lin Jing still could see nothing.

“You two go back first, I’ll go over there to see what happened…” Liu Yiyuan’s father said at this moment, speaking to the two.

“Father, be careful…”

Liu Yiyuan spoke at this time.

“Hmm…”

Liu Yiyuan’s father nodded in response.

Then, with a wave of his hand, a giant palm imprint formed from spiritual power swept out, flying toward the surnamed Wang Pill Master.

The surnamed Wang Pill Master’s eyes widened in horror as he looked at Liu Yiyuan’s father.

“Master Liu, why…”

However, before he could finish his sentence, the giant palm imprint had already struck him.

Poor Pill Master Wang didn’t even have time to react before he was turned into a mist of blood by that massive palm strike.

“Father…”

Upon witnessing this scene, Liu Yiyuan turned to look at his father, his eyes filled with incomprehension.

“Father, he has yet to lure Lin Jing here; why kill him now?”

Liu Yiyuan’s father’s expression was now stern, a stark contrast to moments before:

“When the old ancestor first informed me of this matter, he had already said… ”

“Regardless of whether this task is completed or not, this man must not be spared; he knows too much by now, which is detrimental to us.”

“Have you forgotten what the old ancestor told you?”

After hearing this, Liu Yiyuan fell silent for a while, then nodded:

“I understand, father.”

Hearing him say this, Liu Yiyuan’s father’s countenance softened a lot, and he then spoke earnestly to Liu Yiyuan:

“Yiyuan…”

“Remember, be gracious when it’s time to show grace, and punishing when it’s time to punish.”

“But if his existence could pose a threat to us, then you must not be lenient.”

“Do you understand?”

Liu Yiyuan first turned his head, looking at the patch of blood mist on the ground, then turned back to his father and gave a formal bow:

“I understand, father.”

Liu Yiyuan’s father nodded after listening, then smiled gently at Liu Yiyuan:

“Alright, you go back.”

“I’ll go over there to see what’s happening…”

“As for Lin Jing, there will be other opportunities to deal with him in the future.”

Liu Yiyuan looked at his father, deeply moved.

He knew that his father was still on his side.

After that, Liu Yiyuan said:

“Father, be careful…”

Liu Yiyuan’s father nodded, then flew towards the direction of the sound on his sword.

And Liu Yiyuan, after his father had left, also departed from the area.

In that place, only a pool of blood mist remained, testament to someone’s prior existence.

Lin Jing, however, continued to stay in the System Space, silently watching all this unfold.

He felt no sympathy or mercy for the fate of the surnamed Wang Pill Master.

Anyone who plots against the tiger must be prepared to suffer the tiger’s wrath.

Then, Lin Jing did not leave the System Space but continued to look into the distance through Observation Mode, towards the direction from which the loud noise had come.

Because he wasn’t sure if Liu Yiyuan’s father would be lying in wait there.

In any case, it’s always good to be cautious.
