What’s more important is that according to Grandpa’s words, the pills refined by this Lin Chen not only cleared his internal hidden ailments, but also allowed his cultivation to advance further.
It won’t be long before he can break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage!
In the entire capital, there are twenty to thirty Nascent Soul stage powerhouses among the ten great families combined, but most of them are in the early Nascent Soul stage.
Mid-Nascent Soul stage is enough to look down on the entire capital!
“Uncle, you’re too kind. I’ve already accepted the Fire Cloud Cauldron as a thank you gift. How about we skip the manor?”
Immediately after, Lin Chen looked at Long Feihu with some hesitation.
His current overt identity is Long Yuling’s boyfriend.
If everything is prepared by the Long family for him now, wouldn’t he be a kept man?
“Oh, that’s enough, Lin Chen. We’re family, what’s with the politeness?”
“Our Long family’s third generation has no promising disciples. When I die, the position of Long family patriarch will eventually belong to Yuling.”
“Why be so formal with things that belong to family?”
Seeing Lin Chen’s persistent refusal, Long Feihu had no choice but to use Long Yuling to persuade him.
For the Long family now, they can’t wait for Lin Chen to take more from the Long family and owe them more favors!
The news of his father’s recovery must have spread throughout the entire capital.
Before long, those cultivators troubled by qi deviation would definitely come to Lin Chen’s door shamelessly to beg for pills.
If Lin Chen were to live in the Long family, these people would have to go through the Long family to see him.
This way, the benefits they would receive would definitely far exceed a mere manor!
Money in the mortal world is, to cultivators of their level, no different from waste paper.
What’s truly scarce are the favors from powerful forces, and the resources needed for cultivation!
Therefore, for the Long family now, as long as Lin Chen is here, even if he does nothing, he is a genuine money tree!
Who would treat a money tree poorly?
“Alright.”
Seeing that Long Feihu had said so much, Lin Chen felt too embarrassed to continue being polite.
“Sir, the envoy from the Ghost Spirit Sect has been waiting in the hall for a long time!”
However, just as a young man was about to enter the Long family, a servant of the Long family suddenly ran out and reported to Old Master Long.
“What? An envoy from the Ghost Spirit Sect?”
Upon hearing the name of this sect, Old Master Long was taken aback, and a hint of disbelief appeared on his face.
In the entire Dragon Country, their ten great families are already considered the top forces.
However, there are still some cultivation forces left from ancient times. These forces are usually very low-key and do not appear before outsiders unless there is something special.
And the so-called Ghost Spirit Sect is one of the hidden forces in the Dragon Country.
No one knows how powerful these forces are, but Old Master Long knows very well that if their Long family truly offends this Ghost Spirit Sect, it might only take a single word for the Ghost Spirit Sect to destroy the Long family.
Therefore, no matter what, he cannot offend this so-called envoy from the Ghost Spirit Sect!
It’s just that he doesn’t know why these usually low-key cultivation sects have appeared at his home today?
“Let’s go, let’s go and see first!”
After understanding the key to the matter, Old Master Long immediately led Long Feihu towards the main hall.
Seeing Old Master Long’s grave expression, Lin Chen was also full of curiosity and turned to look at Xiao Jianguo beside him.
“Patriarch Xiao, may I ask what kind of force the Ghost Spirit Sect is that makes Old Master Long so wary?”
Lin Chen was indeed very curious at this moment. If he remembered correctly, when he was in Zhejiang Province, Long Yuling’s mother, his martial aunt, had personally told him that his master’s father’s enemy was an elder of this Ghost Spirit Sect!
And his master at that time had clearly stated that the deep hatred he carried could only be avenged after reaching the Nascent Soul stage.
He never expected that now that he had come to the capital, he would sense the whereabouts of a Ghost Spirit Sect cultivator?
Lin Chen had already experienced the power of the Long and Xiao families.
It could be said that if the Long and Xiao families joined forces, it would seem very easy for them to overthrow the entire Dragon Country.
Yet, such powerful families were still in a state of extreme apprehension before the Ghost Spirit Sect, which truly made Lin Chen very curious.
“The Ghost Spirit Sect is one of the hidden sects in our Dragon Country.”
“No one knows how powerful they are behind the scenes.”
“However, every time these hidden sects appear in the mortal world, it signifies that the entire cultivation world will be stirred by a colossal wave!”
Xiao Jianguo sighed with emotion.
If he remembered correctly, this hidden sect last appeared more than twenty years ago.
He never expected that after only so many years, the Ghost Spirit Sect would send an envoy to the Long family again.
If his guess is correct, these people must be here for Lin Chen, right?
After all, regardless of anything else, a fourth-grade alchemist who is only in his early twenties has such talent that it is truly astonishing.
It is very normal for people from the Ghost Spirit Sect to be moved.
In the current cultivation world, spiritual energy is scarce, and heavenly treasures are also very rare.
In such a situation, the importance of alchemists is fully reflected.
Only alchemists can refine the carefully cultivated medicinal herbs into pills, allowing the medicinal properties of the herbs to exert dozens or even hundreds of times their original effectiveness.
Especially cultivators like Lin Chen, who are both young and talented, are targets that all major families and sects seek to enhance themselves!
If this were not the case, he would not have personally brought his granddaughter to the Lin family to arrange a marriage before!
If Long Yuling hadn’t already known Lin Chen and had a relationship with him, Lin Chen would surely have become his Xiao family’s son-in-law by now?
Originally, Xiao Jianguo thought that the ultimate beneficiary of this incident should have been the Long family.
But he never expected that the envoy from the Ghost Spirit Sect would arrive so promptly!
It seems that now, neither he nor the Long family can keep Lin Chen!
After all, he also knows very well that whatever the Ghost Spirit Sect wants, they have never failed to obtain it so far!
“Hmph! The Ghost Spirit Sect?”
After listening to Xiao Jianguo’s introduction, Lin Chen clenched his fists slightly, and a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes.
