Chapter 337: Great-Grandmother Bestows a Treasure

At this moment, Grandfather, having heard the conversation between the two of them, also spoke up to instruct: "Qing'er, Senior Chen has permitted you to enter her Collection Room and select three Treasures.

This is already extremely generous; you must not entertain any further thoughts about the other Treasures in the Collection Room! Do you understand?"

In truth, Lin Zhangqing was already very satisfied; he believed that the collection of a Purple Mansion Stage Cultivator would certainly not be inferior, and at the very least, he got to choose three Treasures himself.

Their value should, in any case, be higher than that single Supreme Face-Keeping Pill, so upon hearing Grandfather's instruction, he immediately agreed.

However, he then turned to Chen Jieyi with a grinning face and said, "Senior Chen, you just said I was lucky to come at a good time.

Since you have already given me a hint, why not be a good person through and through and tell me exactly what is going on!"

Chen Jieyi looked at him with a smile on her face and said, "Oh, that! If you want to know, go find your Great-Grandmother yourself!"

Since Senior Chen Jieyi would not tell him, he could do nothing about it, but he believed it would not be long before he figured it out himself.

Soon, before they realized it, Chengxia Peak came into view, and the four of them descended right at the entrance of the large Courtyard.

Lin Zhangqing had been to this Courtyard several times before and had a certain understanding of its layout, yet he still faithfully followed behind the Clan Leader and Grandfather.

After passing through several inner courtyards, they arrived at a Reception Hall, where three people were present: the Great-Grandmother and Chen Zi Ya.

There was also a beautiful Female Cultivator who looked like a woman in her prime; she gave Lin Zhangqing a slightly familiar feeling, yet he could not immediately recall where he had seen her.

At this moment, the Clan Leader and Grandfather had already begun to pay their respects and offer greetings.

Following behind the Clan Leader and Grandfather, Lin Zhangqing heard the Clan Leader speak: "Greetings, Great-Grandmother; greetings, Senior Mu. We thank you, Senior, for your care of the Lin Family last time at Red Maple Fortress."

The beautiful Female Cultivator smiled, nodded to the Clan Leader, and did not say anything.

Grandfather also offered his greetings, saying, "Greetings, Great-Grandmother; greetings, Senior Mu."

Upon hearing the Clan Leader speak thus, Lin Zhangqing immediately knew who this beautiful Female Cultivator was.

This person was Mu Qingrong, the Great-Grandmother's seventh Disciple, who was also the commander at Red Maple Fortress back then and had specially cared for the Lin Family.

Therefore, he quickly bowed and offered his greetings as well: "Grandson Lin Zhangqing pays his respects to Great-Grandmother and Senior Mu."

The Great-Grandmother laughed lightly and said, "There is no need for so much ceremony from any of you; find a seat for yourselves.

How are matters in the family? Have they been resolved?"

After the three members of the Lin Family had found seats, the Clan Leader replied, "Replying to Great-Grandmother, they are temporarily resolved.

However, hatred has already formed between the three parties, and conflicts and disputes will certainly continue to arise in the future.

This incident where our Foundation Establishment Clan Members were ambushed was primarily the doing of the Zhao Family and the Li Family, as both families suffered relatively heavy losses during this Beast Tide.

Whereas the Lin Family, thanks to the care of Great-Grandmother and Senior Mu, suffered relatively minor losses, so they sought to directly utilize Foundation Establishment Cultivators

to kill some of the Lin Family's Clan Members, thereby achieving their goal of weakening the Lin Family and balancing the strength of all families.

Fortunately, when Maoxiang was ambushed, although he suffered severe injuries, he still fought desperately to break out.

He brought the news back to the family; otherwise, the Lin Family would certainly have suffered many unclear losses of Clan Members this time.

Fortunately, this time all four generations of our Lin Family united in heart and effort, employing some of our trump card methods; this forced the two other families to pay a certain price and compensate the Lin Family for its losses, so this matter is considered temporarily settled and resolved!"

After listening, the Great-Grandmother frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "Very well! Since you have resolved it yourselves, let it be so for now.

As for the Zhao Family and Li Family of Pingyang Prefecture, I have noted them; when the opportunity arises, I will naturally deal with them."

Having said this, she glanced at the three members of the Lin Family, then let out an "Eh!"

She had not noticed earlier, but only now saw that Lin Zhangqing had already achieved Spiritual Energy Transformation Success, which greatly surprised her.

Beckoning to Lin Zhangqing, she said, "Little Qing, come here and let me see you.

I did not expect you to have already achieved Spiritual Energy Transformation Success; it seems you little one possess some luck!"

Hearing this, Lin Zhangqing could only steel himself and walk over, but before doing so, he hurriedly sealed all eighteen of his Thunder Apertures within his body to avoid detection by the Great-Grandmother.

However, ever since Lin Zhangqing entered, Chen Zi Ya's eyes had been fixed on him, and while the Clan Leader was speaking, Lin Zhangqing took the opportunity

to exchange a few glances with her, even blinking at her, thereby conveying some sense of longing.

But with so many Elders present, he dared not act too boldly or recklessly.

Yet, upon hearing the Great-Grandmother say that Lin Zhangqing had achieved Spiritual Energy Transformation Success, Chen Zi Ya was overjoyed to the extreme, nearly unable to restrain herself from crying out.

Since Chen Zi Ya had known him, although Lin Zhangqing's combat power was extremely formidable, his Cultivation Base had always been low.

This was a problem she had always worried about, so she never expected that upon this visit, he would suddenly achieve Spiritual Energy Transformation Success all at once; how could she not be happy?

When she heard this news, she was even happier and more excited than if she herself had achieved Spiritual Energy Transformation Success.

Were it not for the inappropriateness of the occasion, she would have pestered Lin Zhangqing to ask what had happened.

Lin Zhangqing was unaware of Chen Zi Ya's inner joy and excitement, as he was currently dealing with the Great-Grandmother.

At this moment, the Great-Grandmother was holding his hand, then sent forth a strand of Magical Power, which circled once inside his dantian before returning to the Great-Grandmother's own hand.

After finishing her inspection, the Great-Grandmother was truly overjoyed and could not help but repeatedly exclaim, "Good! Good! Good! This is truly excellent; you are indeed the Lin Family's qilin child.

Your own foundation is laid very firmly, and you even possess high-quality Chaotic Attribute Mana.

I originally worried that, in order to achieve Foundation Establishment, you might resort to those messy, unorthodox, and cunning methods, but it seems I worried unnecessarily.

Excellent, excellent; it seems this generation of the Lin Family will depend on you. I happen to have a small item suitable for you, which I shall give to you as a reward."

Having said this, she took out from her Storage Bracelet an exquisite, square seal the size of a Fist, atop which was a white tiger roaring toward the sky.

Lin Zhangqing was greatly delighted in his heart and quickly stepped forward to receive it respectfully.

He did not expect this small item to be quite heavy; preliminarily estimating, it should weigh eight or nine hundred jin, and the Spiritual Pressure emanating from it was also very strange.

The Spiritual Pressure was stronger than that of ordinary Top-grade Spiritual Tools yet weaker than that of Magic Treasures, placing it somewhere between the two; could it be a Super Extreme Grade Spiritual Tool?

Though he harbored some doubts in his heart, he still opened his mouth to express gratitude, saying, "Grandson thanks Great-Grandmother for bestowing this Treasure!"
