Chapter 245

After going out the door, he walked directly towards the Baicao Garden. He had walked this path from childhood to adulthood, and Lin Zhangqing wouldn't walk the wrong way even with his eyes closed.

Arriving at the entrance, he cast a few spells onto the restriction, and then he entered the Baicao Garden directly. He happened to see his aunt currently casting the Nourishing Origin Catalysis Technique on a spirit apricot tree.

Lin Zhangqing happily shouted loudly, "Aunt! I'm back!"

Suddenly hearing Lin Zhangqing's shout, it caused Lin Maoting's hand to shake, and she failed the spellcasting directly.

It angered her so much that she turned around and glared fiercely at Lin Zhangqing, "Returning is returning, why are you screaming like a ghost? Did you do this on purpose, you brat? You caused me to fail my spellcasting."

Seeing that his prank had been seen through by his aunt, Lin Zhangqing couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.

Then he met with tragedy. Without paying attention for a moment, his aunt suddenly appeared beside him, directly twisting his ear, and then lifted him up slightly.

It hurt so much that Lin Zhangqing immediately admitted defeat, shouting repeatedly, "Ouch! Aunt, Aunt, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again in the future, let me go!"

"I won't let go. You brat have been out for so long. This time, unless you take out a gift that satisfies me, I won't let go!" his aunt said with a hint of craftiness.

"There is a gift, there is a gift, I guarantee that once you see it, you will definitely be satisfied beyond measure, and maybe you will even reward me!" Lin Zhangqing said confidently.

His aunt then let go of his ear.

"If you can't satisfy me, a double punishment will guarantee your satisfaction!" After finishing, she laughed herself.

Lin Zhangqing hurriedly said, "Aunt, there really is a gift, but it has to wait until everyone is gathered before I can take it out, otherwise I'll have to explain it several times."

"What exactly is it, being so mysterious?" His aunt's curiosity was piqued.

"It's definitely a good thing, you will definitely be happy once you see it, but don't ask for now! I'll help you finish these tasks first, and then we'll go home together to eat spirit meals, and you'll know when the time comes!"

"That's fine, this whole area here is yours, hurry up and get to work!" His aunt divided an area for Lin Zhangqing.

He was quite familiar with the spirit plants inside, and he was handy at taking care of them. After more than two hours, he finished everything, and then the two of them went home together.

Just as they entered the door, a figure rushed over, and Lin Zhangqing hurriedly hugged her.

"Brother, did you miss me? Why didn't you come to find me when you came back, and where is my gift?" The one in his arms was exactly Lin Zhangling.

"I missed you, I missed you. Of course, when I come back, I see Mother and Aunt first! Who told you to be the youngest in the family? Naturally, you are ranked last!

As for gifts, there are plenty. Whether you can get them depends on your performance." Lin Zhangqing teased her on purpose.

Then he put her down. The twelve or thirteen-year-old Lin Zhangling was already standing gracefully and had the appearance of a young girl! Her height had already reached Lin Zhangqing's shoulder, and her cultivation base was already at the fifth layer of Qi Refining.

Seeing his younger sister whom he hadn't seen for more than a year, Lin Zhangqing was still quite happy, especially since the little girl had already started to grow up, which made him even happier.

Hearing that there were many gifts, she immediately used all her skills, "Brother~ Brother~ Brother~ Brother!" pulling his hand and acting like a spoiled child desperately, with the stance that if Lin Zhangqing didn't agree, she wouldn't stop.

Lin Zhangqing knew it would be like this. There was no way! He could only take out the spirit beast bag he had prepared in advance and hand it over to her.

Seeing the spirit beast bag, Lin Zhangling jumped up directly, overjoyed, and hurriedly took it over.

With a spirit beast bag, it went without saying that there were naturally young beasts inside, only she didn't know what they were.

Not caring about so much, she immediately started to refine it, while still talking to Lin Zhangqing, "Brother, what spirit beast did you give me? Is it pretty?"

Lin Zhangqing was a bit speechless, rolled his eyes at her and said, "Shouldn't you be asking if it's powerful? What's the use of being pretty?"

Lin Zhangling ignored him. Very quickly, the spirit beast bag was refined. She directly released the spirit beast inside, and a fluffy, cute little Mystic Tiger cub appeared in front of everyone.

Lin Zhangling cheered, happily pouncing towards the little Mystic Tiger, but unfortunately, the little Mystic Tiger ignored her.

It ran directly behind Lin Zhangqing and hid. Here, only Lin Zhangqing was familiar to it, so it ran to his side at the first opportunity.

She continued to run over, wanting to get close to it, but the little Mystic Tiger changed direction again. After going back and forth several times, finally, it was Lin Zhangqing who caught it and put it into Lin Zhangling's arms before it became obedient.

"Brother, what spirit beast is this? It's so cute!" Lin Zhangling stroked the little Mystic Tiger and asked with a happy face. "This is a female Mystic Tiger cub, a metal-attribute spirit beast. Its growth potential is very high. You must cultivate it well; in the future, it will protect you." Lin Zhangqing instructed earnestly.

Lin Zhangling nodded and continued to ask, "Brother, you said the potential is very high, how high exactly?"

Lin Zhangqing glanced at the little Mystic Tiger and said indifferently, "At least a third-stage existence, and this one of yours might have mutated, so it should be at least fourth-stage."

Lin Zhangling opened her eyes wide. Fourth-stage is equivalent to the Golden Core stage. She herself wouldn't dare to say she could definitely reach it, but now this little guy in her arms could actually grow to that point, which was a bit hard to believe!

She couldn't help but say, "Brother! Is it really that powerful?" After finishing, she looked forward to his answer.

"There is a 'Record of Ten Thousand Beasts Sightings in the Qingyun Mountain Range' in the family Scripture Pavilion. When you have time, you can borrow it and take a look.

There should be an introduction to this kind of spirit beast on it. Once you read it, you will have a rough understanding in your heart and also know how to cultivate it."

Seeing her brother speaking so seriously, Lin Zhangling knew he definitely wasn't fooling her.

She said to Lin Zhangqing with a beaming smile, "Brother, you are too good to me, giving me such a cute little guy. Once I establish my foundation in the future, I will definitely cover you!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhangqing laughed loudly. He was still quite happy that Lin Zhangling knew she wanted to protect him!

"Then you work hard, I'll wait for you to cover me!"

At this time, his mother came out and shouted, "What are you all still doing outside? Hurry up and come in for a meal!"

"Coming!"

"Coming!"

The four people gathered together for a meal. Grandfather was at the Clan Leader's place, and Father was guarding the mountain gate and couldn't return for the time being, so only the few of them were dining.

Mother's craftsmanship was indeed good, no worse than the spirit chefs outside. Lin Zhangqing ate very full, feeling that home was still the best!

At this time, his aunt glanced at him and said, "Little Qing'er, shouldn't my gift be taken out?"

His mother also said, "That's right, you just said you wanted to give me a surprise! Hurry up and take it out!"

His younger sister also opened her eyes wide and looked at him, the meaning was also very obvious: if there were good things, she also wanted a share.

Lin Zhangqing didn't keep them in suspense anymore. From the storage bag, he took out two small jade boxes with spirit-sealing talismans attached that he had prepared in advance.

First, he gave his aunt a small jade box, and then he also gave his mother one. The two looked at each other, and in their hearts, they had a little bit of a guess. Could it be...

Afterwards, the two directly tore off the spirit-sealing talismans and opened the boxes. Immediately, they smelled a faint fragrance.

The fragrance also contained a little bit of honey scent, and inside the jade box was a snow-white spirit pill.

His aunt had already opened her eyes wide, and his mother had a similar appearance. Both of them couldn't help but laugh. Although they hadn't seen the real thing!

But for female cultivators, this thing could be said to be famous and thunderous. Even if they hadn't seen it, they must have heard of it: the second-tier upper-grade spirit pill, the Three-Flower Face-Keeping Pill!

"Clap!"

"Clap!"

The sound of the two jade boxes closing! At this time, the smile on his aunt's face could no longer be covered. She believed she had already guessed eight or nine tenths of it!

But she still needed the final step of confirmation, because this was a top-grade spirit pill, and it was a little bit different from the legendary upper-grade spirit pill.

She directly pulled Lin Zhangqing to her side, hugged his neck, just like when he was a child, and kissed his forehead.

Happily, she said, "Little Qing'er, the reward you wanted has been given to you. Hurry up and tell Aunt, is this the Three-Flower Face-Keeping Pill? Why did it become a top-grade spirit pill?"
