Chapter 621 (2/2)
“It’s fine, we are not such petty people.”
With Lin Jing taking the lead, Shi San also quickly followed, saying:
“Yes, indeed…”
“Get up, I don’t blame you.”
Upon hearing this, the young girl stood up.
At that moment, the man spoke again:
“Many thanks, esteemed immortal…”
“We are from the Yu clan’s merchant guild in Mo City.
If you have time, and if the esteemed immortal is willing, you are always welcome to visit our Yu clan’s merchant guild.”
“Furthermore, the president of our Yu clan’s merchant guild is also a practitioner, and he is even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.”
“However, an accident caused him to lose most of his cultivation, and he now only possesses the cultivation of the Qi Refinement stage.
If the esteemed immortal is willing to visit, perhaps our president could have a chance to exchange a few words with the senior.”
Lin Jing smiled and replied:
“No need…”
“We won’t be staying in Mo City for long and will be leaving soon.”
“In that case, I won’t disturb the esteemed immortal any further.”
This man was very straightforward.
Seeing that Lin Jing had no intention of visiting, he did not persist and took the young girl and left.
After the man and the young girl had left, Shi San stared at them for a long time, lost in thought.
Lin Jing looked at Shi San and teased:
“What’s the matter?”
“Fancy her, do you?”
Shi San’s face immediately turned red as he hastily denied it:
“No…”
“It’s just that I’ve never seen such a beautiful young girl before.”
Shi San’s hometown, Yunling Town, despite being called a town,
had only a few dozen households, virtually no different from a mountain village.
In these mountain villages, girls started helping with household chores from a young age.
Over time, they naturally couldn’t retain the same delicate features as that young girl.
Moreover, the town was close to the Barren Forbidden Zone and lacked resources, so very few outsiders would visit there.
Therefore, it was the first time Shi San had encountered such a beautiful young girl.
Lin Jing then smiled and said:
“Alright…”
“She’s gone now; let’s move on.
If it’s meant to be, you’ll meet her again.”
After hearing this, Shi San nodded.
Then, the two of them left the tavern together.
After leaving the tavern, Lin Jing took Shi San around Mo City for a while.
Just as they were about to leave, the weather took a turn for the worse, and it suddenly began to rain…
The rain wasn’t much of an issue for Lin Jing.
But Shi San was an ordinary person, and he couldn’t bear the hardship of traveling in the rain.
Additionally, Lin Jing was not in a hurry, so he directly found an inn in Mo City and settled down there.
This time, Lin Jing had made preparations in advance.
He found a merchant guild first and exchanged some Spirit Stones for silver, before finding an inn.
Spirit Stones were not only useful for cultivators, but if ordinary people continuously carried a Spirit Stone with them, it could also benefit their health.
Thus, the exchange rate of Spirit Stones for silver was quite high.
A single Lower Grade Spirit Stone could be exchanged for a hundred taels of silver.
However, it required visiting one of the larger merchant guilds to exchange them, because many ordinary people had never even seen a Spirit Stone and were naturally unable to exchange them.
…
The rain continued relentlessly, pouring down for two days straight.

Finally, after two days, the rain stopped and the sun reappeared.
During those two days, the two stayed in the inn, and Shi San grew restless.
So, early on the third day, the two packed up and left Mo City,
heading towards their next destination.
The next goal was, of course, Tianxin City, the Immortal City that Shi San was eagerly yearning for.
There was a considerable distance between Mo City and Tianxin City, and they had to traverse a stretch of forest on the way.
In these woods, there were not only wild beasts but also bandits who would rob travelers.
If others wanted to travel through the forest to Tianxin City, it was natural for them to travel in groups or even pay some silver to join a merchant guild’s caravan for the added security.
The merchant guilds had guards for protection, so even if they encountered wild animals or bandits, the guild’s guards could offer protection.
However, Lin Jing and his companion set off directly.
With Lin Jing there, there was no need to worry about either Demonic Beasts or bandits…
