Chapter 168 - Chapter 168: Chapter 168 Little Sparrow Is Very Busy (2/2)
Then, Huang Qingling spoke,
“Lin Jing, has Little Sparrow come to find you again? I knew that greedy bird would come looking for Elixir Medicine from you…”
“It was one thing for you to indulge its cravings for fine food before, but now it’s even clinging to you for Elixir Medicine…”
“Little Sparrow is really getting out of hand. I must discipline it today…”
As she spoke, Huang Qingling was about to walk inside.
Lin Jing quickly spoke up:
“Daoyou Qingling is mistaken, it wasn’t Little Sparrow who came to ask me for
Elixir Medicine, it was I who sent for Little Sparrow…”
“You sent for Little Sparrow?”
After hearing Lin Jing’s words, Huang Qingling suddenly turned her head and looked at him with confusion.
“What could you possibly need Little Sparrow for? You’re not trying to excuse it, are you?” Huang Qingling scrutinized Lin Jing, her eyes filled with suspicion.
Lin Jing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: “Daoyou Qingling is thinking too much…”
“Come, let’s talk inside!”
Saying this, Lin Jing gestured for the two of them to come in.
After the two entered, Lin Jing closed the courtyard door behind them and followed them inside.
While walking, Lin Jing explained:
“Didn’t I notice yesterday that Little Sparrow was so intelligent? I just tested it a bit by having it scare Daoyou Qing Qing and Brother Li, right?” “Mm.” Huang Qingling nodded and then continued to ask:
“Wasn’t the test completed yesterday?”
“That was only half of it; what’s happening now is a follow-up to yesterday…” Hearing this, Huang Qingling was quite speechless and she couldn’t help but say:
“You really do have too much time…”
Even Li Tangyu, who was following behind, looked at Lin Jing with a similarly odd gaze.
They probably both thought that Lin Jing was having Little Sparrow go scare people again.
Lin Jing didn’t bother to explain.
Then, Lin Jing asked the two:
“You’ve come so late, was it specifically to find Little Sparrow?”
“Not to hide anything from Brother Lin, indeed it is…” Li Tangyu said.
At this moment, the three of them had arrived inside the courtyard. As soon as Huang Qingling entered the courtyard, she saw Little Sparrow.
“Little Sparrow, come here…”
Only then did Little Sparrow reluctantly and slowly fly over, fearful of being punished.
“It’s all right, Little Sparrow.”
“I’ve already explained everything to Daoyou Qingling, and she won’t punish you,” Lin Jing said to Little Sparrow at this time.
“Chirp.”
Upon hearing this, Little Sparrow let out a chirp and then sped up a bit, flying in front of Huang Qingling, circling around her twice, and then landing on Huang Qingling’s shoulder.
And true enough, Huang Qingling didn’t go on to lecture it.
“Brother Lin, if you need to test Little Sparrow again, you might have to wait another two days,” Li Tangyu spoke up at this time.
“You’re taking Little Sparrow away?” Lin Jing asked.
Li Tangyu shook his head and then explained:
“Not us, but my grandfather and several other Golden Core Immortals…”
As soon as Li Tangyu said this, Lin Jing immediately understood what was going on.
“It’s about the Demon Race Secret Realm, isn’t it…”
Li Tangyu nodded and said:
“Yes…”
“After we told my grandfather about the incident yesterday, he immediately went to investigate and found cracks above the sealing formation, though no demon qi had leaked out.”
“He also searched the surrounding area but still could not sense any demon qi.
Having no other options, he had to return and notify the other immortals.”
“After discussing with them, my grandfather and the others decided to bring Little Sparrow with them to look for the suspected spot where demon qi might be leaking. After all, the matter of the Demon Race Secret Realm is not to be taken lightly.”
“If by any chance there is some accident, Qingyuan Sword Sect must be informed as soon as possible.”
After saying that, Li Tangyu looked toward Little Sparrow and spoke again:
“Little Sparrow might be busy these next few days…”
“The test you have for Little Sparrow, Daoyou Lin, will have to wait….”
