Chapter 280: Chapter 262: Another Trip to the Demon Clan Secret Realm

Hearing Huang Qingling’s voice, Lin Jing couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

“It seems I have to make up another excuse to hide the truth.”

Then Lin Jing, forcing himself up, walked towards the door of the house.

Arriving at the entrance of the courtyard, Lin Jing stretched out his hand to open the door and saw Huang Qingling dressed up beautifully.

Huang Qingling, noticing Lin Jing’s pale face and his hand resting on the doorframe as if he might collapse at any moment, expressed concern.

“Lin Jing, what happened to you?”

“Why are you in such a state all of a sudden?”

Saying this, Huang Qingling hurried forward to support Lin Jing.

With Lin Jing, it seemed Huang Qingling never considered the concept of gender.

She would just grab his hand.

Because of this, it had caused a misunderstanding with Liu Yiyuan last time.

This time too, she came over to help Lin Jing without hesitation.

“It’s nothing, I was just a bit too anxious while refining elixir medicines, and accidentally caused an explosion.”

Lin Jing, having no choice, could only use the excuse of the exploding elixir furnace to cover up his current condition.

After hearing this, Huang Qingling was at a loss for words:

“You…”

“Already a Second-Grade Alchemist, how can you still be so impatient?”

“At this rate, how can you advance to a Third-Grade Pill Master, and how can you create the Pure Youth Preserving Pill for me.”

Speaking thus, Huang Qingling supported Lin Jing as they walked toward the inside of the courtyard.

With this reminder from Huang Qingling, Lin Jing suddenly remembered.

Initially, to exchange for the Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon from Huang Qingling,

Lin Jing had promised her

that he would refine a Pure Youth Preserving Pill for her in the future.

Lin Jing then thought…

Now, the tree bearing the eternal youth fruit in the System Space would mature in about two months; once mature, he could refine the Pure Youth Preserving Pill and then figure out a way to give it to her.

Of course, he needed to keep the origin of the pill a secret.

The identity as the Elixir Valley Heir could be utilized once more.

Thinking of that Jade Pendant,

Lin Jing suddenly remembered something else.

It seemed that Huang Qingling’s personal clothing was still kept in his Storage Bag…

Thinking of that personal clothing, Lin Jing felt a headache coming on.

Right now, whether to return it or not, it was all problematic.

The garment had just stayed with him all this time.

Initially, Little Sparrow had brought that clothing because it was afraid of Huang Qingling. It dropped the clothing and hid.

Due to the urgent situation back then, Lin Jing had no choice but to keep it.

Lately, Lin Jing spent his days focusing on refining elixirs and improving himself, gradually forgetting about the incident.

Now to have Little Sparrow take it back?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Little Sparrow was becoming smarter by the day, even learning to speak. Sending it back with the clothing would be outright exposure.

Lin Jing definitely didn’t want Huang Qingling to think of him as a big pervert.

……

“By the way, Fellow Daoist Qingling, where is Little Sparrow?”

“Why didn’t I see Little Sparrow with you?”

As they walked through the courtyard, Lin Jing suddenly spoke, asking Huang Qingling.

Huang Qingling immediately replied:

“Qing Qing is preparing for alchemy, she went to the Night Mist Mountain Range to look for a type of Spirit Grass, so she borrowed Little Sparrow.”

“Little Sparrow is quite familiar with the Night Mist Mountain Range, after all…”

“I see.”

Lin Jing nodded, couldn’t help but exclaim:

“Little Sparrow really is multi-talented, tracking, running errands, even searching for Spirit Grass, it can do anything…”

“And its strength is exceptional, it can even act as a personal guard in crucial moments.”

After hearing this, Huang Qingling’s eyes curved into crescents, and she laughed outright:

“Hee hee…”

“Now that you mention it, it really is…”

After speaking, Huang Qingling suddenly felt something was off.
