Chapter 136 - Chapter 136: Chapter 136 The Eve of Tribulation (2/2)

Wu Cai Immortal and the Li Family Immortal were talking with Elder Bai and the others about something, looking quite harmonious.

At that time, a loud noise came.

Lin Jing turned his head and saw a group of youths walking toward this side, consisting of both men and women.

He even recognized a few of them.

Li Tangyu, and the girl who had appeared at the end of the auction, Lin Jing remembered; she seemed to be Li Tangyu’s sister.

Then there was Zhang Yuan from the Zhang Family. Lin Jing had met him twice, and he had once intervened to save Lin Jing, although Lin Jing had been in disguise at that time.

Additionally, there was another person, Li Yao, the Li Family Young Master; his presence did not surprise Lin Jing.

After all, the previous matter between the Liu and Li Families and the Zhang Family had nothing to do with Elder Bai of Yuebaolou. It was normal for him to appear.

Beyond them, Lin Jing did not recognize anyone else.

Following that, Huang Qingling led Lin Jing to the top of the mountain.

A few people approached and greeted Huang Qingling.

“Qing Ling Daoyou…”

“Sister Qing Ling…”

“Daoyou Huang…”

In any case, there were all sorts of greetings, but no one paid any attention to Lin Jing.

Firstly, they did not recognize Lin Jing, having never seen him before; it was obvious that he did not belong to any of the family factions.

Secondly, they belonged to the same social circle and naturally resisted outsiders who were not part of their group.

They were merely curious about Lin Jing being able to follow Huang Qingling.

However, this curiosity did not lead them to approach and make his acquaintance on their own.

It was then that Li Tangyu approached and greeted Lin Jing with a fist and palm salute:

“Lin Daoyou.”

“Li Daoyou…” Lin Jing replied with a similar salute.

“May I ask who this is?” The people found it strange when they saw Li Tangyu take the initiative to greet Lin Jing.

They quickly turned to Li Tangyu with inquiries.

They were aware of Li Tangyu, the Li Family’s Young Master. The fact that Li Tangyu took the initiative to greet someone suggested that the person’s identity was not simple.

Even Li Tangyu’s sister, the cute girl, was puzzled as she looked towards her brother.

“Oh…”

“This is Lin Jing, he is a distant nephew of Pill Master Elder Yu.” Li Tangyu replied.

“So, it’s Lin Daoyou…”

Suddenly, several people greeted Lin Jing enthusiastically.

The rest, even if they did not actively greet him, nodded to Lin Jing in acknowledgment.

Lin Jing responded to each one in turn.

After a round of pleasantries, people stopped paying attention to Lin Jing and started chatting amongst themselves.

After all, Elder Yu had not yet become a Golden Core Immortal, had he?

Lin Jing was pleased with this arrangement and silently walked away to a distance, leaning against a large tree on the hillside, quietly watching the rocky beach below.

Lin Jing knew very well that he was never on the same path as these people; naturally, there was no need for him to be overly entangled with them.

At that moment, Huang Qingling was already chatting with Li Tangyu’s sister; the two girls were chattering incessantly about something.

And the other youths, too, in pairs or threes, were engaged in their own discussions, making the scene quite lively.

Just then, Li Tangyu approached.

“Lin Daoyou, excuse the intrusion…”

After saying this, he pointed toward the crowd, where Huang Qingling and his sister were, and said to Lin Jing:

“Those two are too noisy. I’d like to borrow the tranquillity of Lin Daoyou’s spot for a moment.”

“Lin Daoyou wouldn’t mind, would you?”

Having said this, Li Tangyu looked at Lin Jing with a smile. Lin Jing couldn’t help but grin, “Li Daoyou, please, by all means..”
