chapter 486: chapter 183: reunion
this time.
lin jing saw the lord of nightfall and that xue yilin.
lin jing observed the lord of nightfall very clearly, previously, he indeed had the intention to save jin jue.
however, xue yilin didn’t seem to get along well with the lord of nightfall.
he didn’t give the lord of nightfall any face at all.
and it seemed that the lord of nightfall also had some reservations about xue yilin.
even when xue yilin killed jin jue right in front of him, the lord of nightfall still didn’t take any other action.
and then there was xue yilin.
even though he looked all smiles, appearing amiable and very easy to talk to.
in reality, he was also an extremely dangerous individual.
this could be seen from his sudden, unexpected strike to kill jin jue.
nevertheless, lin jing found his sudden action quite baffling and always felt the reason for his strike was far-fetched.
of course, it could also be because of the five elements divine art.
this xue yilin, it seems that next time they meet, he would have to be more cautious.
……
after the lord of nightfall and xue yilin left, lin jing also returned to li yan island.
after returning, he saw the questioning looks of everyone and nodded.
everyone sighed in relief.
at that moment, zhang jian hurried to lin jing’s side and carefully examined him:
“brother lin…”
“you’ve actually entered the nascent soul stage so quickly.”
lin jing then said with a smile:
“let’s go…”
“first, let’s go back to my small courtyard, we’ll talk more once we’re back.”
“alright…” zhang jian quickly agreed.
subsequently.
lin jing led zhang jian and several others back to his own residence in the northern part of li yan island.
as soon as they arrived in the courtyard, zhang jian began to inquire:
“where exactly did those who attended the trade meeting that time go?”
“you don’t know, after you disappeared, many people have been looking for you.”
“and after your disappearance, some others also went missing one after another, but in the end, nothing was found.”
lin jing then spoke up, explaining the ins and outs of the matter to everyone.
upon hearing what lin jing said, everyone was immensely shocked.
they had not expected that someone could use the sacrifice of golden core cultivators to help themselves break through their realm.
such an inhumane act was also a violation of heavenly principles, and yet there were people who dared do it.
and zhang jian felt even more remorse, saying:
“if it weren’t for me, brother lin, you wouldn’t have fallen into such misfortune.”
this event had no warning beforehand.
moreover, even without zhang jian, lin jing might have also decided to check out the trade meeting on his own.
after all, at that time, lin jing was still in need of high-grade spiritual plants and wanted to collect them.
encountering such a situation was completely unexpected, and zhang jian couldn’t be blamed.
therefore.
lin jing spoke to comfort him:
“brother zhang…”
“you can’t blame yourself for this, there’s no need for self-reproach.”
after saying this, lin jing continued:
“during this time, i have also been greatly indebted to brother zhang; otherwise, my li yan island would have fallen into the hands of others long ago.”
zhang jian replied:
“there’s nothing worth mentioning about what i did; you were trapped because of me, brother lin, what i’ve done was merely my duty.”
lin jing shook his head and then took out several top-grade life-reviving pills from his space ring and handed them to zhang jian.
seeing the life-reviving pills lin jing took out for recovering from injuries, zhang jian didn’t stand on ceremony and directly accepted them.
as he took the life-reviving pills, zhang jian also pulled out a small, trade-use storage bag from his own and handed it over to lin jing.
“brother lin…”
“the two hundred thousand spirit stones i borrowed from you before, i’d like to take this opportunity to return them.”
