Chapter 513: Meeting Lin Zhijing Again

~8 min read 1,484 words

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's sincere words, Linge felt even more moved in her heart.

She bowed sincerely to Wang Jianqiang.

"Many thanks, Junior Brother."

"Ding, Linge's Good and Evil Value has increased. Current Good and Evil Value: 90."

In her mind.

The system notification sound came again.

Wang Jianqiang smiled.

"Senior Sister, within one day after I perform this Secret Technique, refining a Perfect Pill will no longer consume lifespan."

"After one day, the Secret Technique must be performed again, so let's hurry and refine the pills."

As he spoke, a flash of Spirit Light appeared on his body, and a Dharma Robe manifested upon him.

"Okay."

Linge stood up, a Magic Treasure long dress appeared on her body, and she looked at Wang Jianqiang, "Junior Brother, what Medicinal Herbs are needed to refine a Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pill? I will go to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to purchase them right now."

Wang Jianqiang waved his hand, "No need, it is just a few Medicinal Herbs; Wang will simply gift them to Senior Sister."

His tone was calm.

As he spoke, an air of great wealth and influence emerged spontaneously.

While feeling moved, Linge could not help but feel a surge of envy.

Is this the financial power of a top-tier Alchemy Monster?

For her, resources that would be enough to exhaust her savings were gifted away without him even blinking!

If she could always stay with a person of this level.

Wouldn't her future cultivation be...

Thinking of this.

Her face flushed red.

She secretly glanced at Wang Jianqiang, and seeing that he did not seem to notice, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she shook her head inwardly.

How could a heaven-gifted talent like Junior Brother Wang look upon someone with "ordinary" aptitude like her?

But...

Junior Brother Wang has always said he feels a connection with her.

If she were a bit bolder.

Would there be a chance?

But if Junior Brother Wang refused, how embarrassing would that be?

Once it affected their future interactions, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Just as Linge's thoughts were in chaos.

Wang Jianqiang's voice suddenly came, "Senior Sister?"

"Ah?"

Linge immediately came back to her senses, and as if her inner thoughts had been discovered, a flash of panic appeared on her face.

"Senior Sister, are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Wang Jianqiang asked in confusion.

Linge's pretty face flushed red, and she subconsciously shook her head, "No, nothing, perhaps I am just a bit tired."

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "I see, having performed the Secret Technique for five consecutive days, the physical exertion was indeed a bit high."

Hearing this, the red on Linge's face grew even deeper.

Wang Jianqiang seemed not to notice her expression and continued, "Senior Sister, I need a quiet room to refine pills for you."

"Please arrange a room for me."

"Oh, okay." Linge nodded.

She led Wang Jianqiang to an empty and spacious room and looked at him.

"This is where I usually cultivate; Junior Brother, please refine the pills here."

"Mm."

Wang Jianqiang nodded and took out the Pill Furnace and some Medicinal Herbs.

Seeing that Wang Jianqiang had begun Alchemy, Linge left the room.

One day later.

Wang Jianqiang walked out of the room.

Linge, who had been waiting in the hall the entire time, immediately went up to meet him upon seeing Wang Jianqiang.

"Junior Brother, how did it go?"

"It has already been refined."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and casually took out a Jade Bottle, "There are ten Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills here; take them first, and when you finish them in the future, you can come find me again."

"Many thanks, Junior Brother."

Linge took the Jade Bottle, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on her face.

Wang Jianqiang smiled, his gaze sweeping over Linge, "Senior Sister must have entered the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace for quite a few years, right?"

Linge was stunned upon hearing this; although she did not know why Wang Jianqiang would suddenly ask this, she still nodded, "Indeed, I have already joined the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace for nearly two hundred years."

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment and continued, "Senior Sister's aptitude is not bad, and the Fourth-tier is not your limit of will; it shouldn't be that you are cultivating so slowly."

"If I am not mistaken, Senior Sister's background shouldn't be very good, right?"

Linge nodded, "I come from a cultivation family, and our Ancestor is only at the Nascent Soul Late Stage. By my current realm, the family can no longer help me."

As expected.

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

Although there are countless resources in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, there are only two paths to obtain them.

Either one needs to rely on a major power with a strong backing, having someone to help whether performing tasks or purchasing resources directly within the Immortal Palace.

Or one needs to have supreme talent, sweeping away all obstacles to compensate for a lack of background, just like himself.

In the process of performing the Secret Technique with Linge, he had already roughly sensed her aptitude.

Linge's aptitude is not weak; it is even enough to rival those top students within the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

She is now nearly three hundred years old.

If she had a major power supporting her from behind, with her aptitude, it would be impossible for her to still be stuck at the Fourth-tier Will Level.

However, although her aptitude is not bad.

It has not reached the level of sweeping away all obstacles.

To obtain resources, without enough wealth to purchase them, she can only rely on performing tasks to accumulate points.

And because her family is too weak, they cannot assist her in her tasks.

This makes her efficiency in performing tasks far inferior to others.

This is what has left her in her current awkward situation.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Jianqiang casually took out ten more Jade Bottles.

He sent these Jade Bottles in front of Linge and smiled, "There are one hundred drops of Desolate Source Liquid here; Senior Sister, please take them to use."

Feeling the rich aura of Desolate Source Liquid emanating from the Jade Bottles, Linge was startled.

One hundred drops of Desolate Source Liquid!

To her, this could be called a "super huge sum"!

It is no exaggeration to say that the total amount of Desolate Source Liquid she has obtained in the last few decades probably does not even reach one hundred drops.

At this moment.

She had a new realization regarding Wang Jianqiang's wealth.

She looked at the ten Jade Bottles in front of her.

Her expression became conflicted.

Reason told her that she already owed Wang Jianqiang enough and should not continue to accept more.

But once she thought about having these one hundred drops of Desolate Source Liquid.

Her cultivation could reach the Fifth-Order Will Stage in a short time.

Her gaze became fervent again.

In the end, she made her decision.

Over these years, watching one student after another whose talent was clearly inferior to hers, yet because of an extraordinary background, their cultivation speed was far beyond hers.

Their cultivation gradually surpassing her...

She had had enough of this frustration.

"Many thanks, Junior Brother!"

She bowed deeply to Wang Jianqiang and put the Jade Bottles away.

"Ding, Linge's Good and Evil Value has increased. Current Good and Evil Value: 95."

Hearing the system prompt sound in his mind once again.

Wang Jianqiang couldn't help but laugh.

With his current net worth, a hundred drops of Desolate Source Liquid are merely a drop in the ocean.

Being able to exchange it for an increase in Linge's Good and Evil Value, it was worth it.

"Senior Sister, you should cultivate first and strive to break through as soon as possible."

"Wang will not disturb you further."

"Junior Brother, wait."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Linge's expression shifted, and she took out a Jade Pendant.

This Jade Pendant was the key to her residence.

She tapped the Jade Pendant.

A wisp of Spirit Light shot out from the Jade Pendant and merged into Wang Jianqiang's body.

Afterwards, she looked at Wang Jianqiang with a blushing face, "Junior Brother, with this wisp of aura, you can enter and leave my residence at will in the future."

Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile.

With a thought.

A Space Channel appeared, "Senior Sister, see you another day."

He waved at Linge and walked into the Space Channel.

The next moment.

The gate of Linge's small courtyard opened wide, revealing a chaotic and distorted space.

Wang Jianqiang walked out from the distorted space.

The courtyard gate behind him closed.

"Junior Brother Wang?"

Just as he walked out of the courtyard gate, a voice suddenly came from not far away.

Wang Jianqiang looked up, and a familiar figure came into view.

Lin Zhijing?

Why is he still here?
