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

A mere 50,000 high-grade spirit stones...

That's quite a lot for her now!

Moreover, the fact that a 300-year-old man humbled himself so much for his grandson gave her the feeling of an old man with a white beard apologizing to a child!

Let's call it a day! If this person dares to mess with us again, we'll deal with them then.

After accepting the apology payment of 50,000 spirit stones, she was somewhat glad that she had acted too late, otherwise she wouldn't have received the 50,000 high-grade spirit stones.

"My disciple, what a lively scene you've created!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan saw her master descend from the sky and appear before her. She quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Master, rest assured, I won't cause you any trouble. Everything has been resolved."

"That's good. If there's anything you can't resolve in the future, feel free to come to me! I'll take care of it for you!"

"Alright. Are we going back to the mountain gate now? I have some companions at the inn. Please wait a moment, Master. I'll be right back."

"Row."

After his disciple left, Wen Ningqing looked at the cultivator with shattered kneecaps in the pit, then at the Golden Core cultivator beside him, without saying a word.

Grandpa Liu felt an invisible pressure, so he quickly bowed to the Nascent Soul cultivator and took his grandson away!
In the vast ocean continent, strength reigns supreme. No matter how old you are, if you encounter someone stronger than yourself, you must keep a low profile!

Grandpa Liu never expected that the girl was actually the disciple of Venerable Duan Yi. No wonder she was already a Golden Core cultivator at such a young age; she must have extremely high cultivation talent!
My grandson is spoiled at home. I hope this lesson will teach him a lesson and that he won't be as reckless as he was today. If he can't handle things the way he did today next time, will he become an unfilial descendant and have his ancestor come out of seclusion to clean up his messes?
Once aboard the small flying boat, Grandpa Liu took out some healing pills and fed them to Liu Mingyu. His skin and flesh wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He cried out in pain, and the servants waiting nearby lowered their heads to make themselves inconspicuous.

The young master had a bad temper, especially in this situation, and liked to take it out on the servants, who didn't want to be whipped.

"You may all leave!" Grandpa waved his hand, and everyone withdrew. Hearing his grandson cry out in pain, the old man felt sorry for him, but the trouble was ultimately caused by his grandson himself. It was good that he was hurt; it would teach him a lesson!
"Grandpa, my knees hurt so much, what should I do? Grandpa, am I going to lose my legs?"

Grandpa Liu used his spiritual power to investigate and discovered that his grandson's kneecap was not broken, but shattered!
It's not that a Golden Core cultivator can shatter a Foundation Establishment cultivator; what's terrifying is that only the bones around the kneecap are shattered! How strong must one's control over spiritual power be to do that!
Grandpa Liu slapped his grandson on the head, stunning him.

Liu Mingyu's eyes widened in disbelief. "Grandpa... I... I'm already like this, and you still hit me..."

"You won't learn your lesson unless I punish you! I'm warning you, you're not allowed to disembark from the flying boat on the way back. If you still don't learn to speak properly, you'll be punished according to family rules!"

"Grandpa, I'm already in so much pain, how can you bear to do this to me? Waaaaah~ Grandpa, it hurts so much..."

Grandpa Liu wasn't a healer; he possessed the ability to regenerate broken bones. He simply gave the person pain-relieving pills and continued his lecture: "After you go back, you'll be in seclusion. Come out only when you've advanced to the next level!"

"grandfather……"

"Shut up! If I keep indulging you like this, something bad will happen sooner or later."

……

Lin Yan returned to the inn, hugged the two little ones, and checked out. It didn't take long before she was back outside the town.

"Master, I'm here."

"Hmm." Seeing her master's gaze fall on the two little ones, she introduced them: "They are my partners. The one that can fly is called Tangyuan, and the one that can't fly is called Xiaotu."

"My disciple can also tame beasts?"

"No. They are partners, not battle pets."

"Alright, come back to the mountain gate with me."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan remembered that she hadn't taken the spirit stones from the auction, so she inquired about the situation in Richeng and explained that she had refined pills to be auctioned off.

Sun City was attacked by monsters, and she felt saddened, but she was also concerned about whether she could get the spirit stones! After such an incident, it couldn't be that the cultivators had to bear all the risks themselves, and the auction house didn't have to compensate for anything, right?

"I've already inquired for you. The auction house is doing its best to salvage the items buried under the ruins. Undamaged treasures will be returned to their rightful owners, and the auction house is willing to compensate for damaged treasures according to the pre-determined starting price. Once Sun City is repaired, the auction house will post an announcement in Jade Disc Square."

The starting price for the auction items was set below the value of the items themselves, with the aim of giving cultivators room to raise the price. The auction house compensates according to the starting price, which is much lower than selling directly to the merchant guild.

This was an unexpected disaster, and it's already quite good that I received compensation! But I just won't send anything to the auction house for auction again.

Fortunately, she had just acquired 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, which made up for the shortfall in her pill-refining efforts.

"I wonder what items you sent to the auction house, my disciple?"

"Fourth-grade Foundation Building Pill".

Wen Ningqing was surprised. Her disciple was not only talented in formations, but also in alchemy. How old was he to be able to refine a fourth-grade Foundation Establishment Pill?

I know nothing about alchemy, and I don't know if it was a mistake to take her as my disciple to learn array formations from me!
Upon closer reflection, who says a disciple can only have one master? Why not just be the head master and then trick the alchemy master into becoming the girl's second master?
Wen Ningqing released a flying bird and led the people to jump onto it.

The bird's speed is similar to that of a large airship, but its size is smaller. When I was commissioning this thing, I only thought about the fact that I wouldn't be training many apprentices, so I commissioned a size that could accommodate five people.

Once seated, she asked her disciple, "Does my disciple mind having two masters?"

"No... I don't mind." How could she mind? Having multiple masters means having multiple backers. Lin Yan is a very pragmatic person. When she is not under any constraints, the more backers the better.

"That's good."

The journey to Guiyun Peak went relatively smoothly, but we were blocked halfway there, which was quite annoying.

On the vast continent of Canghai, there exists an organization that claims to possess all information. Whether it's finding a person or an object, they can provide information, and then charge fees based on the difficulty of obtaining the information, categorizing it into different levels.

She wasn't surprised at all that Venerable Lingyun had come to intercept them!
I've been a bit too flamboyant lately, especially after becoming a disciple of Venerable Duan Yi. The news must have spread like wildfire, and the latest news from Jade Disc Plaza is probably about Venerable Duan Yi accepting a disciple.

After the matter of Sun City was resolved, Venerable Duan Yi appeared in the town looking for her, and it was easy to guess where he was going.

It's highly likely that Venerable Lingyun came here to wait after buying the information.

Before the other party could speak, Wen Ningqing stood up, resisting the oppressive aura released by Ling Yun. (End of Chapter)
