Chapter 208 - Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Trouble at the Li Family (2/2)
If he were by any chance careless and something seemed off to Li Tangyu, that would spell trouble…
So, the best strategy was to keep silent…
Soon, a quarter hour passed…
At this time, someone emerged from the Secret Trade Room.
Lin Jing and Li Tangyu turned their heads to look, only to see the elder of the Ning Family and Ning Yue walking toward them.
Coming to a stop nearby…
The elder of the Ning Family said to Lin Jing with a smile:
“Young friend, to be frank, this seed is of great significance to our clan…”
“And the Elixir Valley where you reside is inaccessible to outsiders, plus those seniors you mentioned cannot come out either…”
“We are truly at a loss as to what decision to make at this moment…”
Lin Jing wasn’t at all surprised by the elder’s words.
After all…
The Moon Mulberry Spirit Fruit seed was tied to the fate of the Ning clan, immeasurably precious – how could they easily hand it over to someone else?
The key point was, it was their first meeting and they were not acquainted.
If it had been another clan, they probably would have left long ago; the elder of the Ning Family was already showing a remarkably good temper.
Then, the elder of the Ning Family continued.
“How about this, we will take two days to think it over. Please come to the black market without fail in three days, by then we will have decided on the outcome and will inform you.”
As the elder of the Ning Family finished speaking, Lin Jing immediately responded:
“I understand the concerns of the senior…”
“Let’s do as you have said.”
“After three days, I will be here waiting for the senior…”
“Thank you, young friend…”
The elder of the Ning Family said to Lin Jing with cupped hands.
“No trouble at all…”
Having settled the matter, Lin Jing then took his leave from the three of them.
Thereafter, Lin Jing left the black market.
Time flew by quickly…
And the next day arrived.
At this moment, Lin Jing was in his own small courtyard, cultivating in the Divine Fire Triple Realm.
A strand of white flame, emitting a terrifying aura, danced continuously between Lin Jing’s fingers,
shifting into various shapes as Lin Jing kept forming different seals with his hands.
Lin Jing’s spirit was focused intensely on the flame at this moment.
But just then…
A knocking sound “thump thump thump” came from outside the door…
The knocking startled Lin Jing, causing the flame on his hand to quiver and then dissipate completely.
Lin Jing let out a sigh and calmed the spiritual power within his body before standing up.
Fortunately, Lin Jing had taken precautions earlier, so the sudden disturbance didn’t affect him much.
Following that, Lin Jing walked over to the door…
Upon reaching the door, he opened the courtyard gate.
Upon seeing Lin Jing, Huang Qingling said directly:
“Lin Jing…”
“Do you know, a big incident has happened…”
“Qing Ling, my friend, please, come in and speak…”
As he spoke, Lin Jing invited Huang Qingling inside.
After coming into the courtyard, Huang Qingling was the first to speak:
“News just came today – the elder of the Li Family and the disciples he led, they all died within the Secret Realm…”
“Even the head of the Li Family and the Young Master Li Yao died in the Secret Realm. The Li Family is finished this time.”
Hearing this news, Lin Jing was also shocked.
The elder of the Li Family was a well-known Golden Core Immortal with extensive experience in combat.
In theory…
Even if he couldn’t win, he should’ve been able to escape without any issues.
How could he have suddenly died inside the Secret Realm?
Lin Jing was puzzled.
And then there was Li Yao; Lin Jing had met him twice, not expecting that he too would die in the Secret Realm along with the elder of the Li Family.
This made Lin Jing frown and ponder:
“Could it be that this Secret Realm is really that dangerous?”
