Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 416: Chapter 116 Han Bingyan

Having said this,

Li Tangyu turned his head to look at another person on the flying boat, the other girl who had been auctioned.

At this moment, the restrictions on the girl had been lifted, but she was still unconscious.

Li Tangyu, frowning at the girl, asked:

“What should we do with her? Shall we take her with us?”

“Wouldn’t taking her expose our tracks?”

At this time, Li Qingqing hurriedly spoke up to explain:

“This is Han Bingyan. Before this, we were locked up together. I spoke with her, and she is from the Ice God Palace. She was also captured by the Black Shark Gang. She is very pitiable—let’s take her with us.”

“If we recklessly abandon her, she will surely not escape the clutches of the Black Shark Gang.”

“Ice God Palace?”

Li Tangyu frowned and then turned to ask Lin Jing:

“Brother Lin, have you heard of the Ice God Palace?”

Lin Jing pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said:

“No…”

“It may be some obscure sect.”

Li Tangyu nodded and said:

“Perhaps…”

“As long as she poses no harm to us.”

Li Tangyu’s gaze softened, and looking at Li Qingqing, he said:

“Alright, then we’ll take her.”

Lin Jing also nodded in agreement following that.

Next, Li Tangyu asked Lin Jing:

“Brother Lin…”

“Have you thought of how we can evade the pursuit of the Black Shark Gang Leader?”

At this moment, Li Qingqing also frowned and said:

“Yeah…”

“Those people from the Black Shark Gang surely won’t let us off, will they?”

Lin Jing faced the two and began to speak:

“I have a small island in the Thousand Islands Domain, where I can temporarily shelter you.”

“There shouldn’t be any problems.”

Having finished speaking,

Lin Jing looked toward Li Qingqing and the unconscious Han Bingyan and said again:

“However…”

“If the Black Shark Gang can’t find us, they will definitely search for clues using these two.”

“Therefore, after we reach the island, these two must avoid contact with outsiders.”

Li Tangyu frowned and thought for a moment, then said:

“That seems to be the only way for now.”

Li Qingqing quickly spoke up to agree:

“It’s alright…”

“We can stay inside…”

…

…

Soon after, Lin Jing led the group, flying toward the island he had agreed upon with Lin Jue.

The Shadow Escape Flying Boat, at full speed, was extremely fast.

In merely an hour, they arrived at the island.

Before reaching the island, Lin Jing spotted Lin Jue and Ye Yun waiting there.

Then, Lin Jing spoke to Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing:

“Let’s stop here for a moment; I need to pick up two people.”

Li Tangyu, looking at Lin Jing, frowned and asked:

“Pick up someone?”

“Are those two reliable?”

Lin Jing nodded:

“I knew these two before; they are two unfortunate youngsters. It was because I learned that they were sold to Black Xing Island that I chased after them.”

“If not for them, I probably would never have known that Qingqing was here…”

Hearing Lin Jing say this, Li Tangyu’s expression eased a lot.

And then he said to Lin Jing:

“Alright…”

“Then let’s bring them aboard, so we can quickly leave.”

Lin Jing nodded, then steered the flying boat to a stop on the island.

He opened the hatch and stepped out.

The Shadow Escape Flying Boat became visible as it descended.

Lin Jue and Ye Yun, seeing the flying boat, knew that Lin Jing had arrived.

They hurriedly ran over.

At that moment, Lin Jing had just opened the hatch and came down.

Lin Jing, seeing the two, beckoned and said:

“Lin Jue, Ye Yun, come quickly…”

The two promptly responded:

“Yes, Senior…”

Then the two followed Lin Jing onto the flying boat.

When they saw the two people inside the flying boat, the first thing they noticed was Li Tangyu, who was covered in Demonic Qi.

The two hesitated for a second, appearing somewhat afraid, and involuntarily took a step back.

At that point,

Lin Jing had closed the hatch and was already piloting the flying boat again, without the time to deal with the two of them.

Just then, Lin Jue caught sight of Li Qingqing near him.

He exclaimed in surprise:

“Sister Li…”

Then, he turned his head to Lin Jing in astonishment and said:

“Sister Li, you know the Senior?”

Li Qingqing, wearing a smile, looked at Lin Jue in front of her and said:

“So you are the person Brother Lin was talking about…”

At this point, Lin Jing had already split off a wisp of his Divine Sense to control the flying boat.

He himself turned around to face the two and said:

“What?”

“Do you two know each other?”

Lin Jue blushed slightly and said:

“Yes, Senior…”

“When I was first sold to the auction house, I found it hard to bear, but it was Sister Li who kept comforting me, allowing me to persist.”

“However, for some reason, Sister Li was taken away by them later on and was confined alone. I originally thought we would never see each other again.”

“I never expected to see Sister Li here.”

Afterward, Lin Jue said to Li Qingqing:

“Sister Li, I’m really thankful to you.”

“If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have been able to hold on until the elder’s arrival, and I would’ve already collapsed.”

Li Qingqing then comforted her:

“There’s no need to thank me; actually, you’re already doing great.”

“Had I been your age and faced this situation, I definitely wouldn’t have done as well as you.”

Li Qingqing was right in saying this; at that age, she was just a little girl who followed behind Li Tan.

Even Li Tan was still an unassuming gentleman back then.

Several years have passed since then, and each person has undergone more or less some changes.

Sometimes, one can’t help but lament that fate is truly cruel…

……

Subsequently.

Lin Jing piloted the Flying Boat and finally returned to Li Yan Island on the second day.

There weren’t any accidents along the way.

It seems, the Black Shark Gang Leader wouldn’t be able to search that fast.

After returning to Li Yan Island, Lin Jing directly piloted the Flying Boat, passing through the defensive Formation and headed to the northern part of Li Yan Island.

This northern part of Li Yan Island could be said to be Lin Jing’s own territory, where no one could enter without Lin Jing’s permission.

Of course.

Usually, no one would come here.

Except for Yue Qi, who would occasionally come here to report to Lin Jing about the situation on the island.

Then, Lin Jing piloted the Flying Boat and stopped near his Alchemy room.

Afterward, the cabin door opened, and several people descended from the Flying Boat.

When everyone was down, with a single thought from Lin Jing, he shrank the Flying Boat and put it away.

Then, Lin Jing said to them:

“This is where I normally live. Generally, no one will come to disturb us here.”

“For this period, you few can stay here.”

“However, since we will be staying here longer this time, I will build separate dwellings for you all after waiting a little while longer.”

……

Lin Jing’s Alchemy room wasn’t just a single room for alchemy.

It was a whole set of houses including a residence, fully furnished, situated atop the highest peak in the northern part of Li Yan Island.

And the dwelling was also protected by a Formation arranged by Holaw Three Rivers.

Next, Lin Jing took out a Token from his Storage Bag to open the protective Formation around his residence.

Then he led everyone inside.

By this time, Han Bingyan had also fully awakened and was walking with the group.

Han Bingyan wasn’t very old, in fact, she was a year younger than Lin Jue.

Moreover, she was extremely beautiful, with fair skin, bright eyes, and white teeth, her entire being akin to carved ice and jade.

However, she was quite shy and usually didn’t talk much.

When she first awoke, merely expressing gratitude to Lin Jing and the others had already made her face turn red to the tips of her ears.

Therefore, since waking up, she hadn’t talked much, simply quietly listening to Lin Jing and the others talk.

After arriving at Lin Jing’s residence, Lin Jing immediately let Han Bingyan, Lin Jue, and Ye Yun take a break first.

And he, along with Li Tangyu and Li Qingqing, retreated into the inner chamber together.

Even Little Sparrow was temporarily left outside.

It had been such a long time since Lin Jing and his companions had seen each other, there was so much they wanted to talk about.

……

After the three entered the room, Lin Jing took out the tea leaves he had stored there and brewed a pot of tea.

These tea leaves had been prepared by Auntie Yue Qi for him, and they were all Spiritual Tea.

While Lin Jing was brewing the tea, Li Tangyu looked at Li Qingqing with a worried gaze and asked,

“How did you come here alone, where is grandfather?”

Li Qingqing’s eyes lowered, she choked up a bit and said,

“Originally, the Howling Sky Wolf Clan attacked Nanshan Immortal City. Grandfather led our clan to retreat, but unluckily we encountered the Howling Sky Wolf Clan. To protect the rest of the clan, he… grandfather…”

Li Qingqing did not continue.

But Li Tangyu had already understood what she meant.

Then, Li Tangyu fell silent for a long time.

After a while, Li Tangyu finally spoke,

“In truth…”

“Ever since I saw you in Black Xing Island, I had guessed some of it, it’s just, without hearing the truth from you, I still held onto some hope.”

“Perhaps, it was just an accident, and you were taken by them.”

“Grandfather and the others, they must still be desperately searching for you, after all, grandfather cherishes you so much, how could he willingly let his most beloved granddaughter end up in such a place?”

As he spoke, Li Tangyu’s head tilted downward, obscuring his current expression.

Then…

“Plip!”

“Plip…”

Two teardrops fell to the floor at Li Tangyu’s feet.

At that moment, Li Qingqing also spoke with a choked voice,

“In the final moments, grandfather told me to be strong and to find you at all costs…”

“Be strong, I’ve done that…”

“And now, I’ve found you.”

“Thinking about it, grandfather would surely be very happy if he knew.”

Li Tangyu then lifted his head, and Lin Jing could clearly see the traces of tears on his cheeks.

Li Tangyu ruffled Li Qingqing’s head and said,

“Qingqing, you indeed are very strong, I saw it…”

Following that, Li Tangyu spoke again,

“Can you tell me what happened afterward?”

Li Qingqing nodded and then said,

“When we were retreating from Nanshan Immortal City, we were attacked by the Howling Sky Wolf Clan…”

“And it wasn’t just us, many other families were also with us, all retreating together.”

“When the Howling Sky Wolf Clan attacked, to pave a way for the clan to escape, grandfather and the other Golden Core Immortals took the initiative to intercept the Howling Sky Wolf Clan.”

“But the forces sent by the Howling Sky Wolf Clan were just too strong, led by a Nascent Soul True Monarch…”

“Grandfather and many family Golden Core Immortals couldn’t even hold out for a quarter hour before they were defeated, and that was when grandfather perished…”

“After they fell, those demon cultivators from the Howling Sky Wolf Clan charged at us, throwing everything into chaos in an instant.”

“We didn’t even have a sliver of resistance, Uncle Two, the steward from Elixir Pavilion, Elder Jin, and many others also tried to fight back, but it was futile, the Howling Sky Wolf Clan was just too powerful.”

“Those Golden Core Cultivators from the Howling Sky Wolf Clan shattered our ranks with just one strike, some even dying on the spot.”
