A mortal cultivating immortality can nurture spirit beasts.

As soon as Lin He returned to the valley, he went to the mission hall to hand in the mission and collect the reward spirit stones. To be honest, he no longer cared about this reward of spirit stones. He did this mission just to make it easier to go out.

High-level demonic beasts are rare in Tiannan. Level 5 demonic beast materials might only cost two or three thousand spirit stones in the Chaotic Star Sea, but in Tiannan, the price would be several times higher. Nangong Wan was quite efficient. In just three days, she sold the two complete Level 5 demonic beast materials and actually got more than two hundred mid-grade spirit stones, which immediately solved Lin He's financial crisis.

In high spirits, Lin He flew to his cave after handing in the mission. Just as he was about to go in, a beautiful figure immediately pounced on him. It was Senior Sister Chen!

"You're finally back!"

Now that Senior Sister Chen had gotten her hands on the flavor, she became increasingly proactive. She grabbed Lin He and pulled him into the cave without saying a word.

Lin He couldn't help but recall that famous internet saying, "Elbow, come inside with me!"

Fortunately, he was a cultivator and had practiced body-strengthening techniques; otherwise, he might have faced a kidney degeneration crisis.

After their lovemaking, Senior Sister Chen leaned against Lin He, her face flushed. Lin He patted her shoulder, realizing something was wrong.

Today, Senior Sister Chen acted unusually wildly; besides being emotional, it seemed there was something else going on.

He looked at Senior Sister Chen and asked, "Has something happened recently?"

"No."

"Really? If you don't want to say, I can ask your older brother."

"Don't go!" Senior Sister Chen sighed and finally said it. Lin He's face darkened after hearing it.

It turns out that during the year Lin He was away, a young master from the Qin family met Senior Sister Chen by chance and immediately expressed his desire to marry into the Chen family and become Senior Sister Chen's cultivation partner.

Senior Sister Chen refused without hesitation, but the other party persisted and even began to use the Qin family's influence, having an elder from the Qin family accompany him to visit the Chen family, hoping to achieve his goal through this opportunity.

After hearing this, Lin He's face darkened considerably. He never expected that while he was away, he would encounter someone trying to poach his employees.

"Senior sister, does this person have a Core Formation stage cultivator backing him?"

Just to be on the safe side, Lin He asked one more question. Senior Sister Chen naturally understood his meaning and quickly replied,

"Of course not. He has only recently established his foundation and is a cultivator from Tianque Fortress. I have not heard of him taking any Core Formation stage cultivator as his master."

"That makes things easier."

Upon hearing that the other party didn't have a powerful background, Lin He felt relieved and then asked, "By the way, what did your master, Uncle Huiming, say?"

Senior Sister Chen shook her head and said, "How can my master interfere in such matters? She doesn't know what I mean, and it would be bad if she forcibly intervened. However, if the Qin family wants to force me to submit, I can only ask my master to step in."

"Since the other party does not have a powerful background, there is no need for Uncle Huiming to intervene. How about this, he should still be a guest at the Chen family. Let's arrange a place to call him out tomorrow, and I will make him back down."

Upon hearing that Lin He intended to intervene in the matter, Senior Sister Chen leaned happily into Lin He's arms.

……

……

The following day, somewhere in the Taiyue Mountains,

Lin He and Senior Sister Chen held hands, looking extremely affectionate, which made the Qin family young master who had just arrived look gloomy. He was about to lash out when a Qin family elder next to him pulled him back, which calmed him down a bit.

Seeing this, Chen Qiaoshan, who was leading the way, could only smile wryly. How could he not know that this was something his seventh sister had done on purpose? It was just that she was being too disrespectful to him.

The young master of the Qin family is decent-looking, but compared to Lin He, he is naturally inferior. Seeing this, the young master of the Qin family said in a deep voice,

"Junior Sister Chen invited me here, but she brought another man with her. What is her intention?"

Senior Sister Chen cut to the chase, saying frankly, "Qin Ye, I've already told you that my heart belongs to this Junior Brother Lin beside me. Why do you continue to pester me?"

Qin Ye's face was full of bitterness upon hearing this, but he was clearly still unwilling to give up. He quickly said, "Yes, I admit that he is indeed a bit better looking than me, but he has no family background and has not been apprenticed to any Core Formation stage cultivator. I, on the other hand, can use the power of my family to obtain far more cultivation resources than he does. How can his cultivation potential compare to mine? I don't understand why you chose him instead of me."

The elder from the Qin family standing nearby, an elderly man with white hair and a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation level, stepped forward and added,

"I am Qin An, Qin Ye's third uncle. To be honest, my nephew has been chosen by a Core Formation senior in Tianque Fort and will soon become his disciple. He has a very promising future. Miss Chen, you should think it over carefully."

Senior Sister Chen shook her head again and said, "Regardless of whether Qin Ye becomes my disciple or not, I will not marry him. Let's leave it at that."

Qin An's face turned extremely ugly upon hearing this, while Qin Ye looked even more unconvinced.

Lin He stepped forward and said, "Fellow Daoist Qin, things have come to this point, so why not let it go? A forced marriage won't be happy."

Qin Ye couldn't help but speak up, "Alright, alright, Fellow Daoist Lin, since you put it that way, how about we have a duel? If you win, I'll never mention this matter again."

Qin An frowned, about to stop him, but Qin Ye had already spoken, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile.

Lin He had been waiting for this question, and immediately said, "Since Fellow Daoist Qin says so, you must have some skill. I would like to experience your abilities."

Seeing this, Qin An knew that further persuasion would be useless, so he could only tell his nephew not to underestimate the enemy.

Chen Qiaoshan also tried to persuade him, but Qin Ye had already made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more. Besides, he was also very interested in Lin He's strength. Although his seventh sister was exaggerating his abilities, he still wanted to take the opportunity to see for himself.

Senior Sister Chen looked at Lin He's back with an air of confidence, showing no intention of trying to persuade him.

The two stood several dozen feet apart. Qin Ye was about to say something when Lin He attacked directly!

With a wave of his hand, he scattered over twenty low-level, beginner-grade talismans as if they were free, and a swarm of various spells attacked in an instant.

Qin Ye, who came from a family of cultivators, had never seen such a scene before. He hurriedly took out a blue shield and held it in front of him. Various spells slammed into the shield, causing a violent tremor. However, the blue shield was a top-level defensive magic weapon and managed to withstand the attack.

Just as Qin Ye was about to catch his breath, two red lights suddenly appeared from his side and behind him. They were actually two red throwing knives. They bypassed the blue shield's defense and launched a surprise attack, about to hit the Qin family's young master who had been staying in the greenhouse garden for many years.

Qin Ye was startled by what he saw and quickly manipulated the blue shield in front of him, finally managing to block the two throwing knives that were good at sneak attacks.

"call……"

Just as Qin Ye breathed a sigh of relief, a muffled thud was heard, followed by a wolf-tooth-shaped magic weapon striking the blue shield. Strangely enough, the exceptionally strong blue shield seemed to have met its match, as the wolf-tooth magic weapon punched a hole in it. Two red throwing knives seized the opportunity to pass through the hole and stopped in front of Qin Ye's throat. The chilling red light enveloped the young master of the Qin family like death, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

"Fellow Daoist Qin, would you like to continue the competition?"

Lin He's icy voice sent a chill down Qin Ye's spine. He sighed deeply.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, your abilities are truly extraordinary; I, Qin, concede defeat!"

The duel was decided in less than two minutes, causing everyone's expressions to change.

The difference was that Senior Sister Chen was beaming with joy, Chen Qiaoshan was full of admiration, while Qin Ye and Qin An were pale-faced.

Qin An, as expected of an elder of the Qin family, was able to take things in stride and quickly apologized to Lin He, even welcoming Lin He to visit the Qin family. He was clearly a man of great composure.

Qin Ye, on the other hand, was much less so. He became timid and hesitant, and even dared not look Lin He in the eye.

The incident ended there. After the two members of the Qin family left, Chen Qiaoshan praised Lin He and then returned to the Chen family to report the situation.

Lin He then put his arm around Senior Sister Chen's slender waist and returned to the cave.

……

……

Time flies like water, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye. The cave door, which had been tightly closed for a long time, finally opened, and a handsome young man in blue walked out of the cave. It was Lin He!

He glanced next door; Senior Sister Chen was still in seclusion. He didn't disturb her, but simply muttered to himself.

"Wan'er should be waiting for me in Yuejing right now. I shouldn't keep her waiting too long."

After saying that, Lin He steered the Divine Wind Boat towards Yuejing.
