Family Patriarch, Zhang Chenfan.”

“The Zhang Family Patriarch? What does he have to do with the Clear Accumulation Elixir incident?” Lin Jing asked.

“You must also be aware that the Zhang Family Patriarch is nearing the end of his lifespan and doesn’t have much time left to live, ” Huang Qingling continued to speak.

Lin Jing nodded and said, “Right, Elder Yu mentioned it when I visited the

Drunken Immortal Pavilion before, so naturally, I’m aware of it.”

“Then let me ask you another question, what is the finale auction item for this

auction?” Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing and asked.

“If my guess is correct, it should be that Lifespan Extension Pill…” “You mean, it has something to do with the Lifespan Extension Pill.”

“Given that the Zhang Family Patriarch’s days are numbered, the Zhang Family will definitely try every means to win that Lifespan Extension Pill.” “Right, it’s that very Lifespan Extension Pill,” Huang Qingling nodded. “I didn’t know why before, but later I asked Old Man Bai. Old Man Bai told me…”

“Some families do not wish for the Zhang Family Patriarch to continue living, so they are causing trouble from the shadows.” At this point, Lin Jing suddenly realized the truth.

“I understand…”

“This Zhang Family Patriarch, Zhang Chenfan, Elder Yu had mentioned…”

“He himself is a legendary figure, with the Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root talent reaching the Golden Core Stage, probably the only one in the entire Nanming Domain.”

“But, it is precisely because he has the Five Elements Mixed Spiritual Root that his path to increasing his cultivation must be extremely difficult.”

“If I’m not mistaken, his cultivation level, it can be said, is entirely built upon Elixir Medicine.”

“With so many Elixir Medicines accumulated, one can imagine the elixir poisoning in his body, although it’s not too harmful ordinarily.”

“However, it significantly reduces the effectiveness when he consumes Elixir Medicine.”

“And now he plans to bid for that Lifespan Extension Pill, taking it to increase his lifespan.”

“But he also needs to prepare the Clear Accumulation Elixir in advance to reduce the elixir poison in his body, so that when he takes the Lifespan Extension Pill, he achieves the maximum effect and lives a few more years to preside over the Zhang Family.”

“Therefore, someone has targeted the Clear Accumulation Elixir, and in doing so, even if he obtains that Lifespan Extension Pill, his life won’t be extended for much longer.”

“Heh heh…”

Huang Qingling laughed twice, then said:

“That’s exactly it, Old Man Bai said so.”

Lin Jing continued to speak:

“If I’m not wrong, they are not only targeting the Clear Accumulation Elixir and the Dust-Cleaning Herb, but they’ll probably also try to bid for that Lifespan

Extension Pill during the auction event.”

“Exactly, that’s a certainty,” Huang Qingling said.

“However…”

“It won’t be so easy for them to get their hands on it, let’s not talk about the Clear Accumulation Elixir for the moment, the Zhang Family is certainly determined to get the Lifespan Extension Pill.”

“After all, the Lifespan Extension Pill is what’s most important.” “Without the Lifespan Extension Pill, all else is meaningless.”

“Indeed,” Lin Jing nodded in agreement.

Soon after, not much later, after finishing the meal, Huang Qingling left with Little Sparrow.

This time Huang Qingling’s visit was brief; she did not even stay for a full hour before she returned.

Meanwhile, the Alchemy Room had still not succeeded in upgrading.

Afterward, Lin Jing returned to his room and began to resume his meditation to recover.

He did not know how much time had passed when he was suddenly awakened by a system notification sound while meditating to restore his energy.

“Ding. ”

“System notification: Alchemy Room upgrade complete..”
