You Town, Xuanmiao City

Lin Dongyan reached the Nascent Soul stage breakthrough. This news quickly reached Xiaotian City. Unfortunately, Xiaotian City was busy at the moment and didn’t have time to pay attention. Lin Jiang, as Lin Dongyan’s uncle, congratulated him.

"Come, let’s welcome today’s protagonist, our friend Lin Dongyan the Taoist."

Lin Jiang reserved a floor of the Gathering Tower. Both the big and small stewards from the trading company came, including some members of the Lin family. As for the hired helpers, each of them received a red envelope. Lin Jiang didn’t need to call them, because some of the things discussed were confidential.

"Uncle, spent too much, spent too much"

Lin Dongyan was a bit awkward, he was a tech guy, not familiar with this kind of occasion.

"Why spend? We’re all family here, come, let’s congratulate Ancestor Lin"

Lin Jiang didn’t care whether Lin Dongyan felt uncomfortable, it had to be lively and festive.

The Lin family descendants approached to celebrate and brought gifts, it was like a feast, and you had to give a gift when attending a feast.

"Hey, Wei Lin, don’t just focus on eating, where’s the gift money?"

Lin Jiang lightly pushed Wei Lin, who was burying his head in eating. What a guy, pretending to be dead when it was time to give gift money.

"What gift money? As a Soul Changing, coming to congratulate Nascent Soul, isn’t that a great face for them?"

"Look, the door’s over there, get lost"

"Oh no, this is so embarrassing."

"Stop talking nonsense. If you think I’ll get something for free, you’re dreaming. I’ve always been the one getting things for free from others."

Lin Jiang stood with his hands on his hips, as if he wanted to chase this person away. This party wasn’t meant for outsiders, he came here himself and wanted to get something for free?

"Alright, alright, Dongyan, I don’t have much money left. It’s all been taken by your great-uncle. All I have is this alchemy technique to give you. It’s the true teachings of my Taixu Sect."

"Oh, Senior Wei Lin, this doesn’t seem right."

Lin Dongyan was pleasantly surprised, this gift was too valuable.

"Take it, we have plenty of useless disciples in the Taixu Sect now. Keeping it won’t be of any use."

Lin Jiang immediately snatched the jade scroll and handed it directly to Lin Dongyan.

"What kind of talk is this? What do you mean I’m useless in the Taixu Sect? The disciples of the Taixu Sect haven’t grown up yet."

Wei Lin was very unhappy. Taixu Sect also had a sixth level Alchemist back then, but they died and couldn’t escape. Afterwards, they also put in effort to cultivate, but it hasn’t been long enough for them to grow.

"I can’t be bothered with you, Small Shadiao. And what about you? Give me a gift quickly."

"Really? I’m your son. If you give a gift, it’s as if I give one too, right?"

"Who’s your dad? I don’t have a son like you. Tell me, how many times have you visited me since you got married?"

"Well, then I don’t care. I don’t have money. You keep deducting from it."

"If you don’t have money, then pluck your own hair!"

"Are you serious? No, no, no!"

Small Shadiao became anxious and quickly took out something from a storage bag.

"Dongyan brother, these are my shed claws. They are fourth level claws. Please don’t look down on them."

"Not dislike, not dislike."

Lin Dongyan quickly picked up the components from the fourth-level monster, which were worth at least tens of thousands of spirit stones. They were very valuable. ŕá

"Oh, Small Shadiao, you even have sharp claws. When did you lose your beak? Give it to me."

"It’s gone, it’s gone."

"Really gone?"

"Really gone. I exchanged it for money, to support the family, right, dear?"

Small Shadiao said to the Snow Woman beside him. The Snow Woman was still very shy, not daring to look up, only nodding softly.

"Forget it, I’ll let you go."

Lin Jiang waved his hand and let Small Shadiao go, but from now on, he would take care of any parts that fell off Small Shadiao’s body. They are good stuff.

"Dad, and what about you, don’t you give a gift too?"

"Just kidding, I arranged the whole feast myself, why would I give anything?"

"Then how about ordering a dish of ‘cloud and mist’, I heard it’s really delicious."

"Sure, I could just chop off your wings and that should be enough for a meal, what do you think?"

"Haha, I was just joking."

"Hey, get lost!"

Lin Jiang waved his hand, he couldn’t bear to order the ‘cloud and mist’ dish since it was a joint effort with Zhou Huaiying and many others chipping in money.

After eating and drinking, there was no second course. Lin Jiang couldn’t afford to invite all the people to Zhongmiao Building, plus there were family members to consider. He couldn’t bring trouble to other people’s children.

"Thank you, Uncle."

When Lin Dongyan got back home, he specially came to thank Lin Jiang.

"Don’t rush to thank me, do you know that the Lin family caused quite a commotion over a Nascent Soul Achieving Pill?"

"I know, I can’t make any reckless remarks about this matter."

Lin Dongyan said, he couldn’t really understand Lin Batian’s actions. Such precious treasures are decided by the higher-ups, there is no way they would let them discuss it themselves. Isn’t this clearly a tactic to provoke infighting among them?

"I can’t say much about this matter, but you are lucky, you know."

Lin Jiang nodded, he also thought Lin Batian’s move was foolish. He had managed to get hold of the pill himself, but it caused division within the Lin family. As long as Lin Batian is alive, he may be able to suppress it, but if he were to die one day, it would surely worsen the conflicts.

"I understand."

"Since you understand, then you should do more. Internal conflicts within a family mostly come from insufficient resources. Just imagine, if there were enough Nascent Soul Achieving Pills this time, wouldn’t it have avoided this conflict?"

"Yes."

"So, you have to hurry up and practice alchemy. Being a sixth-level Alchemist is no small feat. To prevent this kind of thing from happening again, you need to earn more money and contribute more to the Lin family."

"This is the duty of the Lin family descendants."

Lin Dongyan immediately said, he thought this sentence made sense. If there were enough resources for everyone to use pills, there would be no conflicts. And now, this heavy responsibility was on his shoulders, so he had to work hard.

"That’s right, our uncle believes in you."

"Uncle, rest assured, Dongyan will never be lazy."

"Sure, our uncle is going all out to help you. He has arranged a few alchemy tasks for you this time, all of them are sixth-level pills. Don’t mess up while practicing, understand?"

"Oh, so fast!"

Lin Dongyan was a bit dumbfounded. He had tried to refine sixth-level pills before, but all of them failed.

"Are you still worried about making money quickly, Dongyan? Time waits for no one. Don’t worry, our uncle has arranged everything for you in the future…"

Lin Jiang immediately said to Lin Dongyan, he has already planned it, this time he is making a sixth-grade pill, he almost won’t make any money, just to gain some reputation.

Once the reputation is established, he will promote Lin Dongyan. In the high-level pill market of You State, he will definitely take a share. He must not waste such a good employee like Lin Dongyan.

"Uncle, I, I…"

"What’s wrong, nervous, lacking confidence?"

"Yes, I have only tried making the sixth-grade pill three times, and all three times I failed."

"Young one, remember, you are the most talented alchemist in the Lin family. You have to believe in yourself, don’t be afraid of failure. Uncle will support you. If you fail, at most you will work for Uncle for one hundred and eighty years, right? Now you are a Nascent Soul, you can live for hundreds of years. Don’t be afraid."

"Uncle…"

"Others don’t have this opportunity. Just think about it, others don’t even have a chance to work without payment. Would I invest in them? No, because they are useless. You are a genius, this is a special treatment for you."

"Uncle…"

Lin Dongyan was about to cry. Stop talking, he has accepted it, hasn’t he?

"Keep going, worker."

Lin Jiang patted Lin Dongyan’s shoulder and said. Come on, Dongyan, work hard and practice alchemy well. Our fortune depends on you in the future.

"Yes, Uncle, Dongyan will definitely not let you down."

Lin Dongyan clenched his fists. For the Lin family, and to not disappoint his uncle, he must work hard.

"Alright, go rest. We will start practicing alchemy tomorrow."

Lin Jiang smiled. This is settled now. We won’t lack money anymore. Raising a sixth-rank Alchemist is like cultivating a treasure trove. It also guarantees a steady supply of medicine for him in the future.
