2222: Chapter 2242: So You’re Here to Be a Janitor!_1 2222: Chapter 2242: So You’re Here to Be a Janitor!_1 Qi Wuchang advanced on his journey, pausing only occasionally to rest but otherwise not making many stops.
It was evident that Qi Wuchang must have had a specific destination or direction in mind, as his path was almost a straight line.
As Outer Sect Disciples, the likes of Qi Wuchang were akin to Heaven Deity figures to Lin Chen and his group—they didn’t dare to speak more than necessary, let alone ask questions.
As Qi Wuchang’s granddaughter, Qi Bingbing should, in principle, be treated with great affection, yet along the way, Lin Chen noticed that Qi Wuchang’s attitude towards Qi Bingbing wasn’t particularly warm, and Qi Bingbing seed to hold considerable reverence for Qi Wuchang, their relationship hardly resembling that of a grandfather and granddaughter.
Taking advantage of a rest period, Lin Chen sent a ssage to Qi Bingbing through his divine sense, “Junior Sister, are you and your grandpa not on good terms?
It seems rather cold.”
A wry smile of resignation appeared on Qi Bingbing’s face, “After immortals go through several important stages, they tend to view many things in the world with increasing detachnt.
Moreover, with their age and the many experiences they’ve had, it’s practically impossible for them to express their emotions intensely as mortals do.”
“Never mind , even my father has to tread carefully around Grandpa.
There’s nothing like the affectionate and harmonious father-son relationship you might imagine.
The path of cultivation is, after all, a defiant journey that extinguishes mortal desires…”
With Qi Bingbing’s explanation, Lin Chen could understand; throughout his own journey, he had encountered too many examples of those who disregarded everything in their obsession with cultivation.
For them, greater strength and a longer life were their sole pursuits, and nothing else mattered.
The rciless, long march of ti could erase all that was beautiful in the world.
“Grandpa needed so help, so I volunteered, and then I invited quite a few Outer Sect Disciples.
On one hand, having Grandpa’s protection ensures our safety, and on the other, I get the chance to curry favor with him.”
Lin Chen nodded, “As we move forward, are we searching for the Yin-Yang Spring?”
“That should be the case.”
With her response, Lin Chen fell silent, rely following quietly.
After all, with a Daluo Ultimate Immortal leading the team, regardless of what they might find, their safety was highly assured.
On their way, three more Outer Sect Disciples managed to find the group with the aid of Sensing Talismans, but there was still no sign of Bai Yunfei.
Lin Chen wasn’t worried, first because Bai Yunfei had a not-so-low level of strength and second because if Bai Yunfei focused solely on escaping, not even a Daluo Ultimate Immortal could catch up to him.
The Magical Beasts in this area, no matter how fierce, were likely few that could bother him.
His absence so far could be due to the distance, or perhaps because he had gone off to explore on his own.
Following Qi Wuchang’s lead, after four days of flight, Qi Wuchang finally ca to a halt.
“The Yin-Yang Spring should be located in this region, but the exact spot is unknown.
We’ll search slowly; I’ll take care of the powerful Magical Beasts.
You all stick close to the ground and search ticulously.
whoever finds the Yin-Yang Spring will be greatly rewarded!”
“Apart from the Yin-Yang Spring, don’t miss any natural treasures.
Aside from the most vital parts that will belong to , the rest are yours to divide amongst yourselves.”
Lin Chen perked up; had they arrived at their destination?
From Qi Wuchang’s tone, did he bring Lin Chen’s group along just to help him search on the ground for the Yin-Yang Spring and possibly other natural treasures?
The others were also clearly surprised; with Qi Wuchang taking care of the Magical Beasts, they could search the ground at ease and keep most of the finds?
That was simply too fortunate!
Without the threat of Magical Beasts, rely searching safely could bring them trendous benefits!
Following Qi Wuchang had proved to be the right decision for them.
At this mont, in their hearts, they were filled with gratitude towards Qi Bingbing—without her, how could they have had such a stable opportunity to earn cultivation resources?
If they perford well, perhaps with just a word from Qi Wuchang, they could be admitted into the Inner Sect!
Qi Wuchang hovered in mid-air and casually pointed a finger, bursting the head of a Magical Beast that burst out from a pitch-dark cave, as if he was squashing an ant crawling on the ground.
“Search!”
All seven people, including Qi Bingbing, took flight, each maintaining a distance from the others, and began searching along mountain peaks, woods, and rivers.
This Secret Realm had no Human Clan inhabitants; it was purely a wilderness, yet it was brimming with spiritual Qi, which is why valuable dicinal herbs of all kinds could be found everywhere, including High Grade Immortal dicine suitable for immortals and even those beyond the Daluo stage.
Lin Chen diligently flew close to the ground, searching carefully.
When he finished searching a particular area, he would dutifully hand over the Spatial Ring, which originally belonged to Han Zhaosheng, to Qi Wuchang for inspection.
Qi Wuchang would scan it with his Divine Sense, selecting the natural treasures he required.
However, his realm was so high that ordinary items barely caught his attention.
So, while he carried out inspections, he hardly ever confiscated anything, and these goods went directly to Lin Chen and his companions.
The items were quite good, though for Lin Chen, they weren’t too impressive.
For the others, however, they were extrely exciting.
Wasn’t this just like picking up treasure?
What a profitable journey this turned out to be!
