Cultivation begins with the Druid panel

Chapter 163 Going Down the Mountain to Visit Relatives

The two had only been on the mountain for three months, but their cultivation levels had already risen from mortals to immortal masters at the seventh level of Qi Refining. This time, when they came down the mountain, everything had changed, but their feelings for each other remained unchanged.

Upon reaching the halfway point of Tianhang Mountain, where the mountain steps had disappeared, the two exchanged a glance and used hand seals to control the wind as they descended the mountain, arriving at the foot of the mountain in the blink of an eye.

Neither of them rushed back to the village. Instead, they searched in the forest at the foot of the mountain. Half an hour later, they each found a large wild boar in the forest and carried it towards Tianhang Mountain Village.

They had their own reasons for doing this. Firstly, it was already autumn, and the villagers of Tianhangshan Village should seize the time to prepare food for the winter.

The two grew up in Tianhangshan Village and knew that the village suffered from food shortages every winter, with the crops in the fields simply not enough to feed them.

Although the two large wild boars on their shoulders weren't heavy and not enough for the villagers of Tianhangshan Village, they were enough to make cured meat and render lard for the villagers to have some meat. It was also a small token of their appreciation for coming down the mountain to visit their hometown.

Lu Lin and Shen Luo exchanged a glance, neither of them putting the wild boar on their shoulders into their Qiankun bags, but instead carried it on their shoulders all the way to Tianhang Mountain Village.

The village hadn't changed much, and it was around the time of the autumn harvest, so everyone was busy. The able-bodied men were either working in the fields or hunting in the mountains. So when the villagers of Tianhangshan Village saw Lu Lin and Shen Luo, they were greeted by the village women, the elderly, and a small group of children.

These children are all quite young, only about eight or nine years old. They came mainly to satisfy their curiosity.

The fact that Lu Lin and Shen Luo have become immortal masters is now common knowledge in Tianhang Mountain Village. The children all take the two as role models and are working hard to comprehend the three spellbooks that Tianhang Mountain gave to Tianhang Mountain Village.

Lu Lin and Shen Luo carried the wild boar into the village. To the villagers of Tianhangshan Village, this was a triumphant return home. The old village chief of Tianhangshan Village walked at the front of the crowd, smiled and came to the two of them. He led them to the big tree in the center of the village and asked them to put the big wild boar down from their shoulders.

In the forests of Tianhang Mountain, wild boars are not much less powerful or powerful than tigers or black bears. If the villagers of Tianhang Mountain encounter wild boars while hunting, they will not consider hunting them.

Nowadays, most of the women and children in the village have never seen a real wild boar. They all squatted around the big wild boar, looking at it carefully, while marveling at the strength of Lu Lin and Shen Luo.

The two children didn't look very big, but their strength was astonishing. How could one person possibly carry those two wild boars?

The village chief of Tianhangshan Village, leaning on a cane, looked older than when the two had come up the mountain. He glanced at the two wild boars on the ground, then at Lu Lin and Shen Luo, and asked, "It must have taken a lot of effort for you two to hunt these two wild boars, right? Are you injured?"

Upon hearing this, the villagers all turned to look at the two of them.

The elderly people present all looked worried upon hearing this. They had been young once too and knew how ferocious wild boars were; even three or five strong men might not be able to hunt one down, yet Lu Lin and Shen Luo, two children, had killed two. In their eyes, even becoming a Celestial Master would be difficult to achieve.

Lu Lin and Shen Luo exchanged a glance upon hearing this, then shook their heads and chuckled. At that moment, they realized the difference between being a mortal and being an immortal.

"Grandpa, you don't understand. These two wild boars are no threat to the two of us at all. We could kill them with a flick of our wrist, without any effort," Lu Lin said. "As for getting injured, that's even more impossible."

Shen Luo nodded in agreement, "That's right, Grandpa, you're overthinking it. Right now, let alone two wild boars, we could easily hunt down ten or even a hundred of them."

The village chief and the other elders in the village were incredulous upon hearing this, thinking the two were boasting.

But they just assumed the two children were showing off after learning magic, so they just smiled and said nothing.

The village chief chuckled, "Now that you two have become immortal masters, we old folks won't make a fool of ourselves. By the way, how long are you planning to stay in the village this time?"

Lu Lin said, "We'll be leaving before tonight. We came down the mountain this time to see how our fellow villagers are doing."

.

Upon hearing that the two of them had only been staying there for half a day, the village chief hurriedly called out to the crowd, "Old woman, quickly go home and fetch the things to give to the two children."

A look of confusion flashed across Lu Lin and Shen Luo's eyes. Shen Luo spoke first, asking, "Grandpa, what is it?"

The village chief said quietly, "You've been up in the mountain for three months now. During these three months, some people came to the village looking for you two, saying they were sent by your parents. You two had a hard childhood, eating food from many families and doing chores for many others. We wanted to send them away then to teach them a lesson, but we thought that they were still your parents, and you should know the truth. So we had those people leave each of you a letter explaining the situation. As for what you two decide in the end—we old folks won't get involved."

Upon hearing this, both Lu Lin and Shen Luo showed a hint of astonishment in their eyes.

Did their parents send someone?

What are their parents' identities?

Could he be a landlord from the mortal world?

Lu Lin asked curiously, "Didn't Grandpa tell them we went up the mountain to cultivate?"

The village chief said, "Of course we did, but those guys took out a disc and said there was no trace of cultivators here, and there was absolutely no so-called immortal mountain. They even said we were lying to them."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lin and Shen Luo understood.

It seems their parents have quite a background.

But what is the point of seeking them out at this time?

To discard first, then retrieve later?

This is rather unnecessary.

In that short time, someone delivered the two letters and handed the envelopes to the village chief.

The village chief squinted as he examined the two letters, then handed one to Lu Lin and the other to Shen Luo.

The envelopes are of excellent quality; you definitely won't find them anywhere else in Tianhangshan Village.

It seems that what the village chief said is most likely true.

Their parents did indeed send people to look for them.

"Take a look, don't miss something important. Maybe your parents had their reasons for leaving back then." The village chief couldn't stand the two sets of parents who abandoned their two children, but at this moment, he comforted the two children and told them to forgive their parents, clearly feeling sorry for Lu Lin and Shen Luo.
