After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 112 The Master Who Delivered the Spirit Stone Mine!
Lin Yan listened, unsure of what to think. Finally, she asked, "Master, with the city in such a state, and the auction house reduced to ruins, will I still be able to obtain spirit stones?"

"Yes." This apprentice surprised her no less than the previous two, always asking questions she hadn't expected.

However, she admired such people. With such focused dedication to cultivation and learning, how could they not achieve the Great Dao?
"That's good, that's good." Lin Yan felt relieved. This trip to Richeng was worthwhile.

"Is your disciple short of spirit stones? I do have a few spirit stone mines. Your senior brothers and sisters each own half of the spirit stone mines, so you should be treated the same. I will also allocate one mine, and you will have half."

As for why she didn't send the entire mine, Wen Ningqing felt that it would be detrimental to the unity of the sect. Disharmony within the sect often stemmed from the master's unfair treatment of everyone, so she didn't show favoritism and, like before, only sent half.

Lin Yan was shocked! Half a mineral vein in one fell swoop? This wasn't a master, this was a second parent! She didn't want to call him master anymore, she wanted to call him "Mom," "Mother," "Daughter"!
I wonder if the other party would mind having a child her age? If not, we can kowtow and acknowledge each other as relatives right now, change the surname, and even change the ancestors.

Should we refuse? No! Why refuse, hesitate, or be pretentious when resources are offered to us?
If you want something, you have to be open about it!
Lin Yan's face was full of "want," and she said without any hesitation, "I need it! Master, I'm really short of spirit stones!"

“Alright, after the apprenticeship ceremony, I will allocate half of the mine to you.”

Lin Yan immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times. "Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master! Thank you, Master!"

She will definitely be a considerate and loving apprentice in the future, a warm and comforting daughter!

Master's words are sacred decrees, those whom Master dislikes are enemies, Master is never wrong, and everything must be done with Master first!

"So the dangerous elements you mentioned in Sun City were those monsters?" Lin Yan asked, following up on the question.

"No, they're just bewitched cultivators. A bunch of delusional fools who think they've stumbled upon a fortuitous opportunity, being manipulated by demons and still believing they can achieve great things!"

Listening to her master's evaluation, she felt that her master might not be as aloof and arrogant as he seemed; in fact, her master was a bit sharp-tongued.

The master is incredibly good to his disciple! I don't really want to be a goody-two-shoes, but my master gives me so much. With such a beautiful and generous master, what's wrong with being a little obedient and trying to please him?
Is she greedy for money? No! It's because she was born with a deep respect for teachers and elders.

The original plan was for her to stay in the town for two days while her master returned to Sun City to deal with the monster.

When the incident occurred in Sun City, more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators came to its aid. Thirty percent of the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Canghai Continent were mobilized, making the commotion even greater than that in Lishan City.

Now that the game is drawing to a close, the Nascent Soul cultivators in Sun City are still checking whether the demons have left any backup plans.

Her master told her to wait for her in the town for a day before leaving. After he left, Lin Yan sat on the futon, completely puzzled.

According to Master, the demons went to great lengths to cause trouble and set up formations, so they must be up to something big that could wreak havoc on the Canghai Continent. Yet, the monsters that appeared were only one big and one small.

The larger ones were suppressed by a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators working together and were dealt with in just two days. The smaller ones, who had been hiding outside the town, were taken away by their master.

No other monsters came out to assist. If they were going to do something big, they shouldn't have only released two monsters, right? Isn't this just giving merit to the cultivators?

Lin Yan couldn't understand it; she felt things weren't that simple. What she could think of, those Nascent Soul stage experts who had lived so long could surely have thought of too, perhaps even know it perfectly well!

Why should someone as easily defeated as a Nascent Soul cultivator think so much? It's none of her business to worry about these things. Her master told her to wait in town for a day, and she didn't leave the house all day, her eyes tightly closed. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought she had passed away.

The cultivators who were near the inn clearly sensed that there was no spiritual energy here, which made them feel uncomfortable and more wary.

Cultivators rely on spiritual energy for cultivation, and their experience is different in an environment with spiritual energy compared to one without.

Three other people were following behind him, and they also sensed the lack of spiritual energy around them.

The town is only a few dozen miles from Sun City, and its spiritual energy is not scarce. The current situation can only mean that some kind of formation is isolating the spiritual energy!

They realized that the person they were trying to assassinate was no ordinary person!
These individuals are among the top twenty assassins. They each have a name derived from the theme of "Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon." Among them, the highest-ranking is "Wind," possessing a cultivation level of the mid-Golden Core stage.

He excelled at speed and stealth, coordinating with his teammates to ambush assassinated cultivators. For a long time, their team had never failed a job.

This time, they received a high-priced assassination order. Someone had paid 60,000 high-grade spirit stones to assassinate a cultivator who had just established his foundation. A deposit of 10,000 high-grade spirit stones was paid upfront. Upon successful assassination, the assassination would be rewarded with a token, such as a head, leg, or arm…

Then pay the remaining 50,000 high-grade spirit stones.

This kind of order is a very large order for an assassin organization.

This year has been turbulent for the organization, with some of the top-ranked assassins unwilling to take on more jobs, some wanting to leave the organization, and others simply too busy. They were lucky enough to get the job.

Members of these organizations have ridiculously high cultivation levels; Golden Core cultivators are already among the top echelons.

Of the four, the youngest is already 330 years old. Having been an assassin for so long, he has become numb. The thrill of assassination is no longer enough to sustain his morbid mind.

These individuals all suffer from varying degrees of mental illness. They all need spirit stones to build a paradise that satisfies their "pathological psychology," and they also need spirit stones to cultivate and acquire more cultivation resources.

They also anticipated that the person they were about to assassinate was no ordinary individual. Otherwise, why would a Foundation Establishment cultivator ask for 60,000 high-grade spirit stones?

As the team leader, "Wind" only needed to give "Flower" a look, and "Flower" would know what to do.

This was an androgynous cultivator, out assassinating someone, dressed in flamboyant attire. He gestured with his hands, and several pink peach blossoms drifted into a window on the second floor of the inn.

Seeing the room filled with pink smoke and a captivating fragrance, the group nodded in unison and climbed into the room through the window.

Just as they entered the room, a white light flashed before their eyes, and they found themselves in the canyon. The four of them were divided into different areas.

This team's cooperation is indeed formidable, but could they be separated and defeated one by one?
Lin Yan's array skills are still not up to par. A powerful array master can create illusion arrays based on the person a cultivator fears or is most attached to, immersing them completely and making them unable to extricate themselves.

Her illusion array can currently only depict scenes that she has visited and that are etched in her mind.
