Chapter 410 - Chapter 410: Chapter 110 Settling Lin Jue (1/2)
chapter 410: chapter 110 settling lin jue
after the successful bid, two maids immediately came to the auction stage and pushed the cage down.
at this time, the auction was still ongoing.
the next ‘lot’ was another female cultivator.
and she was a cultivator with a special physique, extremely beautiful at that.
following the beautiful host’s stirring speech, the atmosphere in the venue once again became agitated.
yet, lin jing no longer paid attention to these matters.
he was just waiting for the maids to bring lin jue over so he could leave.
it wasn’t long.
before two maids arrived with a pale-faced lin jue and approached lin jing.
lin jing then took out the spirit stones he had prepared in advance and handed them to one of the maids.
after the maid had counted the spirit stones and confirmed the amount was correct, she took out a token and handed it to lin jing.
after lin jing received the token, the maid explained how to use it to him before leaving.
the use of this token was the same as the one that controlled ye yun; destroying it would completely restore lin jue’s freedom.
after the two maids left, lin jing did not linger. he didn’t say a word but directly took lin jue and left the auction venue.
upon exiting the auction venue, lin jing immediately said to lin jue:
“let’s go, we are heading back…”
“i have already rescued ye yun, and he’s waiting for you at the inn.”
“after we get back, i’ll take you both and leave.”
lin jing’s words took lin jue, who was in despair, by surprise.
then looking at lin jing with a puzzled face.
lin jing’s voice sounded very familiar to him.
but he didn’t dare to be certain.
thereupon, lin jue cautiously asked:
“are you… ”
“senior…?”
lin jing nodded gently and then said:
“knowing is enough, now is not the time to make a commotion.”
“let’s talk after i get you guys out of here.”
lin jue was extremely excited, with tears involuntarily sliding down from his eyes.
lin jue choked up as he said:
“yes…”
“senior…”
this period could be considered the darkest moment in his life; how many times he had hoped for someone to save him.
as the auction began, lin jue’s heart had sunk; he held no more expectations.
especially when at the auction, being treated as a ‘lot’ and bid on by others, he fell into a helpless despair.
yet unexpectedly, just when he thought everything was settled and his fate had hit rock bottom, there appeared a turning point,
and the person who bid on him turned out to be the senior who had once helped him…
in that instant, from darkness to light,
lin jue’s heart revived, and he couldn’t help letting his tears fall.
seeing this, lin jing sighed and comforted:
“alright…”
“now that i’m here, there’s nothing to worry about.”
lin jue, with tears in his eyes, nodded profoundly.
afterward.
lin jing took lin jue and left the trading market.
in a short while, the two returned to the inn.
upon seeing lin jue, ye yun immediately became excited and hurried over.
he first inspected lin jue up and down, only after seeing no injuries did he breathe a sigh of relief.
then, ye yun said:
“you… you’re alright?”
lin jue looked at his good friend and shook his head:
“all good, thanks to the senior…”
“and you?”
ye yun turned to lin jing and said:
“thanks to the senior, i’m fine…”
then the two stared at each other…
this experience could be considered a trial or perhaps an opportunity for growth for both of them.
……
it was at this moment that lin jing interrupted them, saying:
“we should leave now.”
the two looked up, turned to lin jing, and asked:
“senior…”
“are we in danger now?”
lin jing then spoke:
“i have something to do later. for now, we should leave and i’ll take you to a safe place. once i’ve taken care of my business, i’ll come back for you.”
after hearing this, the two nodded.
then.
lin jing led the two out, checked out of the inn, and left.
after leaving the inn, the trio didn’t linger and directly departed from black xing island.
not long after leaving black xing island and taking advantage of a moment when no one was around, lin jing immediately called forth the shadow escape flying boat.
seeing the shadow escape flying boat, both lin jue and ye yun were astounded.
“senior, you actually possess a flying boat…”
lin jing nodded then directly said:
“get on first, we’ll talk about the rest later.”
the two nodded as well and followed lin jing aboard the flying boat.
after entering the flying boat, lin jing went straight to the cockpit and embedded a superior grade spirit stone into the slot for spirit stones.
immediately afterwards, lin jing activated it.
the shadow escape flying boat “swooshed” and shot out.
