Chapter 713: First Awakening

After confirming there were no omissions and nothing that could be tracked.

Lin Zhangqing considered it and did not immediately return to the Tianshui Sect, but instead flew toward Tianshui Market once more.

According to his plan, he intended to stay in the market for a few days first to observe the situation; if there were no disturbances, he would then return to the Tianshui Sect.

Just like that, he successfully returned to Tianshui Market and found an inn to stay in. These past few months had been very exhausting, and he needed to rest well.

The next day, after Lin Zhangqing finished his cultivation, he left the inn feeling refreshed and began to stroll around the market.

After wandering for an hour or two, he found a very lively tea house to drink tea, actually wanting to listen to the news circulating in the market.

However, although there was plenty of news, there was indeed not a single bit of information regarding Wei Zhanggeng!

Just like that, nearly ten days passed, and it remained quiet, with no rumors leaking out.

Therefore, Lin Zhangqing confirmed that he had not been exposed, so he could return to the Tianshui Sect with peace of mind!

Now that Wei Zhanggeng had fallen into his hands and had been crippled, he would no longer pose a threat to them in the future! By this time, he had been out for nearly three months, and it was time to go back!

Thus, after checking out of the room, he left the market and flew toward Shenshui Island. Within a few hours, he saw the mountain gate of the Tianshui Sect.

After successfully registering, he flew toward the inner sect and returned to Cuiyun Valley before the sky turned dark.

When Lin Zhangqing returned, the three members of the Li family were overjoyed, especially Li Xiangting, who was even more delighted! Now the four of them were gathered in the living room, chatting while drinking the spirit tea brewed by Li Xiangting! At this moment, Li Qinchuan suddenly asked: "Brother-in-law, why have you been out for so long this time? Sister was very worried about you. What exactly did you go to do?"

Lin Zhangqing smiled lightly upon hearing this: "I went out to cultivate a spell and divine ability; I actually didn't go very far!

Moreover, the divine ability has already reached the entry stage, so I won't be leaving here again for a short time! By the way, during the time I was away, did Wei Zhanggeng come to cause trouble?"

Li Qinchuan shook his head and said: "Everything has been calm and peaceful. Mainly because of the spirit liquid and spirit wine you gave us, we have been cultivating diligently.

We haven't left Cuiyun Valley at all, so how could he cause trouble?"

Lin Zhangqing nodded; he was just asking out of routine and did not leak the news that Wei Zhanggeng had already fallen into his hands.

It was better to let them keep their guard up like this, so as to avoid them knowing too much and harming themselves instead! Moreover, during these three months, the three members of the Li family had all made great progress, the most notable being Li Qinchuan and Li Xiangting.

Their cultivation bases had both advanced by one layer; that is to say, Li Qinchuan was now at the third layer of Qi Refining, and Li Xiangting was at the fourth layer of Qi Refining.

Seeing that their auras were somewhat unstable, they must have advanced recently.

However, since they were re-cultivating, the difficulty would be smaller, and coupled with the assistance of spiritual objects, they were able to advance in just a few months.

Not only them, but Murong Qingyan had also made some progress, moving one step closer to the state of Qi Refining Great Perfection.

It was estimated that in at most half a year, she should be able to attempt Foundation Establishment!

Lin Zhangqing couldn't help but nod; having this result proved that the three members of the Li family must have been cultivating very diligently.

Thus, he said: "Seeing that everyone's cultivation has improved, this is very good; you must continue to maintain it!" Hearing Lin Zhangqing's affirmation, the three members of the Li family were all very happy.

However, after the joy, Murong Qingyan hesitated for a moment before saying: "Changqing, regarding the matter of Foundation Establishment, find a time to explain it to me in detail!"

Hearing her say this, Lin Zhangqing realized that he had actually forgotten about this matter.

Thus, he hurriedly said: "Aunt Yan, that's no problem. Since everyone is here, I'll explain it to you all once!"

As soon as his words fell, they immediately agreed.

Thus, Lin Zhangqing shared his experience with Foundation Establishment, as well as the various problems that might be encountered, with the three of them.

He also answered quite a few of Murong Qingyan's questions, and this explanation lasted for over two hours.

Afterward, Murong Qingyan and Li Qinchuan left contentedly, leaving only him and Li Xiangting.

Lin Zhangqing hadn't eaten meat for two or three months, so naturally, he wouldn't waste the opportunity!

So, amidst Li Xiangting's exclamation, he carried her back to the room, and what happened afterward, no one knew! Just like that, after Lin Zhangqing returned to Cuiyun Valley, the three members of the Li family had a backbone, and everything stabilized once again!

Except for occasionally taking some time to enter the Hundred Li Flood Dragon Sea to look after Wei Zhanggeng and prevent him from dying.

【Checking for errors in the version!】

The rest of his time was spent cultivating or guiding Li Qinchuan and the others; of course, there were also times when he stole a moment of leisure! Just like that, three months passed unconsciously. On this day, while he was cultivating, he suddenly felt some movement inside the Spirit Beast Bracelet.

He hurriedly diverted some divine sense to probe inside to check, and unexpectedly, it was Chuyi waking up! Moreover, its whole body was emitting an aura of intertwined wind and thunder. Lin Zhangqing hurriedly ended his cultivation.

And he released Chuyi from the Spirit Beast Bracelet. Unexpectedly, as soon as it came out and let out a joyful cry toward him.

It immediately used its head to nudge Lin Zhangqing, clearly wanting to share its joy with him! However, after Chuyi woke up this time, its appearance had changed somewhat, becoming very similar to a Swift Wind Thunder Eagle!

Especially now that Chuyi was standing on the ground, it was nearly a zhang tall. Lin Zhangqing had it spread its wings and discovered that they were already about three and a half to four zhang wide.

Looking at it this way, Chuyi had also become a big guy! And that wasn't all; after digesting a third-grade Swift Wind Thunder Eagle demon core, it was now at the late second-grade cultivation stage.

This made Lin Zhangqing overjoyed; it had woken up smoothly, its cultivation had greatly increased, and it had even broken through the limitations of its race—there was nothing better than this!

After all, Chuyi was an existence that had accompanied Lin Zhangqing since his humble beginnings, so he was truly especially happy that Chuyi could take a step further.

However, before he had time to ask what new skills it had acquired, Chuyi desperately transmitted a meaning to him through the contract, which was "Hungry!".

Lin Zhangqing immediately realized that it had been in a deep sleep for more than half a year, and it was very normal for it to feel hungry now that it had woken up.

Thus, he immediately took out a large piece of third-grade demon beast meat and let Chuyi eat it itself. Now that its size was no longer small.

Lin Zhangqing had no way to feed it like before; he might as well let it eat by itself.
