Chapter 580 - Chapter 580: Chapter 242: Testing (2/2)

“The young master is currently busy, please wait here for a moment…”

After speaking, the steward summoned two maids to attend to Lin Jing and the others, then left the room himself.

After the steward had left, Offering Priest Luo seemed a bit restless.

He moved closer to Li Qingqing before speaking:

“Family Head…”

“What do you think they mean by this? Just leaving us here like this?”

Li Qingqing was very calm, directly saying:

“Offering Priest Luo, stay calm and do not be agitated!”

Meanwhile, Lin Jing, after taking his seat upon entering, began to close his eyes to rest, seemingly indifferent to whatever was about to unfold.

While Lin Jing was resting with his eyes closed, that Divine Sense did not linger for too long before it was withdrawn.

As soon as the Divine Sense receded, Lin Jing’s own Divine Sense stretched out.

He quickly found the steward who had just left them, and surreptitiously left a trace of Divine Sense on him.

Lin Jing kept his Divine Sense on that mark, following the steward as he continued to probe into the Yun Family’s inner court.

The reason Lin Jing did this was two-fold: one was to find out what exactly was wrong with the Li Family that was making him uneasy,

and the other was concerning Li Qingqing’s Third Uncle.

He followed the steward with his Divine Sense in hopes of potentially locating Li Qingqing’s Third Uncle and overhearing their conversation.

After all, it was still unclear whether Li Qingqing’s Third Uncle had truly betrayed the Li Family.

Lin Jing hoped to uncover some information through the steward.

In this manner, Lin Jing followed the steward for quite a distance until he eventually arrived in front of the Yun Family’s inner court.

The inner court of the Yun Family was different from that of the Li Family.

The Yun Family had actually set up a Formation within their inner court, and it was a Fifth-Rank Defensive Array at that.

This Formation was capable of defense and also had the ability to obstruct Divine Sense.

The moment the steward entered the inner court, the Divine Sense mark that Lin Jing had left on him instantly dissipated.

Lin Jing’s own probing Divine Sense was pushed back, blocked outside of the Formation.

There was something very off about the Yun Family.

Having set up a Formation within their own home was one thing, but for it to be of such a high level that it could even block the Divine Sense of someone at the Nascent Soul Stage was quite another.

With the Yun Family ancestor currently there, it was obviously not necessary for Lin Jing to probe any further.

Forcefully continuing to investigate could potentially trigger the array’s response, alerting them and causing more problems than it would solve, so he decided it was better to simply give up for now.

After Lin Jing withdrew his Divine Sense…

The steward who had led them, upon entering the inner court, walked quite a distance further.

He went all the way to the doorway of a courtyard deep within the complex, which was different from the other courtyards.

This area wasn’t just protected by its own separate Formation but was also guarded by two people.

When the steward arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, he said to one of the Cultivators guarding the door:

“Please inform the young master that Li Qingqing from the Li Family has arrived…”
