Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

With the matter settled, the atmosphere relaxed.

At this moment, Lin An brought up the brewed Youlan Mist Tea: "Senior Brothers, please have some tea!"

Li Chun sniffed the fragrance in the air and said in surprise: "It smells wonderful."

Xu Changqing introduced with a smile: "This was a gift from a friend of mine, called Youlan Mist Tea. If Senior Brothers like it, take a catty or two back with you when you leave."

Li Chun didn't speak, merely nodding lightly, clearly intending to do just that.

Xu Changqing personally poured a cup for each of them, then asked: "Senior Brothers, when do I head to the Spirit Field Periphery?"

Li Chun and Li Sancai exchanged a glance, then replied: "Should be in these few days. Junior Brother Xu, make preparations; we'll notify you when the time comes."

"Good." Xu Changqing assented.

After Lin An took his leave, the three drank tea while chatting idly.

"Junior Brother Xu's position, I have some impression of it. The previous owner seemed to be an old Spirit Farmer."

"How much does Senior Brother Li Chun know?"

"The other party never broke through to Golden Core Stage, and ultimately died of old age!"

"Died of old age?"

"When we found him, his breath had already ceased, thin as a bag of bones!"

Regarding the previous owner, Xu Changqing had always been curious.

Back when he chatted with Zhu Fuxian, the latter hadn't said much.

Now, he happened to learn the full details from Li Chun.

The previous owner of this position was named Lan Xin.

Wood Spirit Root, cultivation realm reached Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Lived over a hundred years.

Stayed at the Spirit Field Core for over a hundred years.

Nothing special, no particularly memorable deeds.

Overall, just an ordinary Spirit Farmer.

Xu Changqing asked curiously: "Did Senior Brother Lan Xin have no descendants?"

Li Chun recalled carefully and said: "Lan Xin didn't take a Dao Companion, but in a place called Xuanxin City, he had a mortal wife and children."

"Xuanxin City?" Xu Changqing was surprised.

Isn't that where Chu Qiu participated in the Qianfan Zhengdu Conference last time?

Distance-wise, it's slightly farther than the Loose Cultivator Market.

But the number of cultivators there is not small, and the cultivation atmosphere is dense.

Especially the Qianfan Zhengdu Conference held there, which even attracts many Immortal Sect disciples to participate.

After a while, Li Chun stood up: "Alright, we'll chat to here today. I still have to go tally whether other Spirit Farmers are participating in the Formal Disciple Competition."

Xu Changqing took out a catty of Youlan Mist Tea and handed it over: "Senior Brother, take care!"

Li Chun accepted it and said with a beaming smile: "No wonder Junior Brother Li Sancai and Junior Brother Zhang Su both recommended you!"

This Junior Brother Xu before my eyes, in terms of conducting oneself and handling affairs, truly has no fault.

Thereafter, he carried the catty of Youlan Mist Tea and walked toward the door outside.

Xu Changqing and Li Sancai rose to see him off.

Before boarding the Flying Paper Crane, Li Chun glanced at Li Sancai, then launched into the air and swiftly departed.

Seeing only their own people remained, Xu Changqing couldn't help but ask: "Senior Brother, what exactly is going on?"

Li Sancai stood with hands behind his back, blowing in the slightly cool breeze as he slowly said: "My cousin isn't hunting monsters in the Black Rust Dynasty's Central Region?"

Xu Changqing was puzzled: "But what does that have to do with the Spirit Field?"

Li Sancai explained: "A Prince of the Black Rust Dynasty tested as having a Wood Spirit Root, so he wants to join our Dongting Immortal Sect through my cousin's introduction."

Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow: "He's at least a Prince of the Black Rust Dynasty, yet he still needs to borrow our hands to join the Dongting Immortal Sect?"

Li Sancai turned around, the two gazing at each other: "This Prince was abducted by monsters as a child. After being rescued, he contracted Soul Loss Syndrome, therefore..."

Xu Changqing understood, picking up where the other left off: "His mind isn't right?"

Li Sancai nodded: "Even though he's already over ten years old, he's still like a child who never grows up. Wanting him to pass the Spirit Field's assessment, the difficulty is a bit high."

Xu Changqing lowered his head, beginning to weigh the pros and cons in his heart.

Reasonably speaking, this was arranged by Li Lingbi; he definitely had to see it through.

If it were a normal person, even if their talent was a bit lacking, agreeing would be that.

But it just had to be a child with Soul Loss Syndrome, whose mind doesn't work well.

Li Sancai saw the difficulty on the face of the person before him and waved his hand: "Rest assured, the Black Rust Dynasty has made a commitment; they absolutely won't let you suffer a loss."

Xu Changqing heard this and raised his head, once again gazing at the other: "What commitment?"

Li Sancai grinned: "If he can smoothly pass the assessment, that foolish Prince's Second Grade Spirit Field goes to you, and moreover you'll gain 3000 Middle-grade Spirit Stones as remuneration every year."

"Huh?" Hearing there was remuneration, Xu Changqing's eyes brightened.

Li Sancai blinked: "And not only that, all of us will become Guests of Honor of the Black Rust Dynasty, especially you — going there you'll become a Royal Attendant, enjoying the highest standard of treatment.

In the future, if your children don't awaken Spiritual Roots, they can also be sent there to secure an official post of some rank."

Xu Zhangqing was stunned for a moment: "This kind of good thing, isn't Senior Brother more suitable?"

Li Sancai shook his head and said: "You know, I like someone."

Of course, this is just a perfunctory excuse.

Originally, the person Li Lingbi arranged for was him.

After all, the two are relatives, so their relationship is definitely better.

But since a while ago, Li Sancai confirmed he would participate in the Formal Disciple Competition, and then kept honing himself on the Arena, he discovered one thing.

That is... his own aptitude is very general.

Fighting, he can't beat Qingmei Huo Wan.

Farming, he can't outdo Junior Brother Xu Zhangqing.

Wait until his cousin truly breaks through to Golden Core Stage, he fundamentally can't catch up to the other's pace.

In the future, the one who can truly assist Li Lingbi can only be Xu Zhangqing, who is also growing rapidly.

Better to get the relationship between the two good right now, and bind them tightly together.

This way is for Xu Zhangqing's good, for his cousin's good, and even more for his own good.

Li Sancai knows deeply, Xu Zhangqing is a person who values affection and righteousness, treats people beside him especially well, this point can be seen from Hu Bugui, Zhao Ziyue, even Lin An.

If one day, he is thoroughly abandoned by his cousin, at least there is still a Junior Brother to rely on.

Xu Zhangqing could hear there were words within the other's words, but didn't pursue the question, only nodded his head heavily: "Alright, this matter I'll handle."

"Then I'll leave too." Li Sancai summoned his Flying Paper Crane.

Xu Zhangqing cupped his fists toward the other: "Senior Brother, goodbye!"

Soon, Li Sancai went far away.

……

……

Evening, on the Nanmu Bed.

Xu Zhangqing told the fragrant soft jade in his arms about the things that occurred during the day.

And spoke of the doubts in his heart, especially the puzzling parts.

Yu Caiqing opened her mouth and said: "Let me ask you, are Li Lingbi and Li Sancai relatives?"

"Yes." Xu Zhangqing gave affirmation.

Yu Caiqing continued: "Since they are relatives, why not arrange it for him, but arrange it for you?"

Xu Zhangqing looked thoughtful: "Could there be a problem?"

Yu Caiqing appeared slightly speechless, couldn't help but use her scallion-white finger, flicked his forehead once: "Then let me ask you again, how is Li Sancai's talent in the planting aspect?"

Xu Zhangqing thought for a moment and said: "When in the Outer Perimeter, I felt it was okay, but after reaching the Core area I... don't know."

Yu Caiqing pressed further: "Compared to you?"

Xu Zhangqing took a deep breath, said in a deep voice: "Not as good as me."

Yu Caiqing smiled broadly: "Very obviously, Li Sancai is matchmaking you and his cousin Li Lingbi!"
