Longevity through Upgrading Buildings

Chapter 125: Chapter 109: Water Dragon Sect Cultivator—Ji Yuan! [Double-Length]

Lin Hu and Wu Qin didn’t say a word until they returned home.

When they reached the lakeside cottage, Lin Hu glanced at the locked doors of Ji Family and Wen Family, and his footsteps hesitated slightly.

At this moment, he couldn’t express how he felt, only sensing extreme complexity.

”Let’s go inside and talk.”

Lin Hu sighed deeply.

But as soon as Wu Qin entered the house, she immediately called out, ”Hu Zi, come in quickly!”

”What’s wrong?!”

Lin Hu naturally thought something was wrong at home, like a thief had broken in, so he instantly grabbed his two Water Arrow Talismans.

He entered the house and saw nothing unusual, which relieved him slightly.

He was thinking of asking Wu Qin what was wrong, but she handed over something before he could ask.

”A Storage Bag?! Where did this come from?” Lin Hu exclaimed in shock.

Regardless of what’s inside, just this Storage Bag alone would be worth two or thirty Spirit Stones in Zengtou City.

”I don’t know. When I came in, I saw this Storage Bag on the table...”

Wu Qin’s voice grew quieter as she spoke.

By the end, there was no need to say anything; they both knew who had left the Storage Bag.

Lin Hu took the Storage Bag, refined and claimed ownership of it, before taking out its contents; only four talismans and a bottle of elixir.

With a quick glance, Lin Hu understood.

This was left for him by Ji Yuan to help him break through Qi Cultivation mid-stage.

At this moment, even deep breaths couldn’t suppress Lin Hu’s emotions. Tears fell, which he hurriedly wiped away, not wanting to show weakness in front of his family.

”Ji... Brother Ji gave it.”

Wu Qin’s voice trembled slightly. She had been worried about what the family would do since Ji Yuan joined the Water Dragon Sect. She didn’t expect him to prepare for them already.

After a long time.

Lin Hu finally regained control of his emotions, ”Remember, we mustn’t talk about Ling Er’s Spirit Root being a Celestial Spirit Root, or it will spell our doom.”

Wu Qin understood the gravity and nodded immediately, but she quickly added:

”Hu Zi, don’t you think our three houses... The rightmost Wen Family produced a Celestial Spirit Root, the middle Ji Family, you know Brother Ji’s power, and then our house...”

The two instinctively glanced at the sleeping Lin Qiaoruo.

...

”An Abnormal Spirit Root, which can also be called a Wind Spirit Root among the Celestial Spirit Roots, is an even rarer Celestial Spirit Root than the regular kind.”

Wen Lin listened to the introduction of the Golden Core Zhenren in front of him, still slightly doubtful.

Or rather... confused.

The name of the Abnormal Spirit Root was well-known to him.

Its cultivation speed rivals Celestial Spirit Roots, but its power surpasses them. Roots like the Thunder Root and Ice Root have traces of magic effects even in ordinary attacks, making them increasingly precious.

It’s said that the appearance of a Celestial Spirit Root can cause two or three Immortal Sects among the six sects of Shang Dong to compete.

But once an Abnormal Spirit Root appears, all six sects would vie for it.

Wen Lin never dreamed, or rather dared not dream, that Wen Linger would have an Abnormal Spirit Root. He hadn’t even considered a Celestial Spirit Root.

”So the situation is roughly like this. Bringing you here is merely to ask if you’d like to join our Water Dragon Sect. If not, we won’t force you.”

The middle-aged man in purple robes seemed extremely amiable, yet Wen Lin... didn’t dare trust his words.

He had no doubt that if he didn’t join the Water Dragon Sect... there’s no need to join any other sect.

Wen Linger was young, so they could only inquire about Wen Lin’s thoughts.

Wen Lin dared not hesitate this time. Upon hearing the Golden Core Zhenren’s words, he immediately replied, ”Joining the Water Dragon Sect has been our family’s lifelong aspiration.”

The purple-robed Zhenren smiled upon hearing this.

”Very well, in that case, follow me back to the sect. Rest assured, with your daughter’s talent, the Golden Core Zhenrens in our sect will rush to take her as a disciple.”

”By the way, my name is Ye Hong, titled Hunting Owl Zhenren, skilled in Thunder Manipulation Technique. According to cultivation terms, the Wind and Thunder families are naturally inseparable...”

”...”

”Get lost!”

The Earth Demon Wolf pounced, Ji Yuan summoned the Hundred Fish Shield immediately to guard himself.

Simultaneously, he activated the Flying Sword, Qing Fu, to sweep down from the sky, seemingly about to pierce the neck of the Earth Demon Wolf.

It seemed to sense the danger and leaped backward.

Ji Yuan released his hold, allowing the Hundred Fish Shield to continue spinning around him, while Qing Fu Flying Sword twisted and charged again at the Earth Demon Wolf.

Seeing the Earth Demon Wolf about to dodge again.

Ji Yuan didn’t hesitate in the slightest, the blue light flickered beneath his feet as his figure vanished, already brandishing the Water-Split Dragon Spear in mid-air.

Blue radiance swept from his hands, the spear’s light dragon-like.

The Flying Sword joined the fray mid-air.

The Earth Demon Wolf sensed the fierce aura, retreating more.

Escape?!

The area was only so big, nowhere to flee!

Ji Yuan’s Flying Sword pressed closer as he held the Dragon Spear with both hands, without any hesitation, he unleashed the magic within the Dragon Spear at the Earth Demon Wolf in the corner.

Strike until the Water Dragon emerges!

”Roar—”

A water blue dragon shadow immediately shot out from the Water-Split Dragon Spear’s tip, charging straight at the Earth Demon Wolf.

Seeing this, the latter had nowhere to escape.

The Demon Wolf bristled its fur, earth-yellow Spiritual Light appearing before it, and the ground swelled to form an earth wall.
