Chapter 147 - 122: Times Have Changed (Part 3)

Shen Fan, who was standing to the side, felt his face start to burn at Wei Yingying’s outrageous nonsense, wishing he could dig a hole with his ten toes and disappear into it.

Yet, this scene made Lin Chang’an chuckle; listening to nonsense is fine, he wasn’t some great beauty, and this kid Shen Fan surely wouldn’t be thinking about him.

"Uncle Lin, have a taste."

Taking a light sip, the familiar taste made Lin Chang’an curiously ask:

"Is this the Spirit Wine unique to Cyan Bamboo Mountain? Did you go to Cyan Bamboo Mountain?"

Upon hearing Lin Chang’an’s words, Wei Yingying nodded with a proud smile and said:

"Uncle Lin, you truly are a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; you could tell right away. My father and Aunt Qing said that we still lack experience, so my brother Fan and I joined the patrol team."

Wei Yingying then excitedly began talking about her experiences over the past six months while being part of the cultivator patrol team of Celestial Profound City.

Shen Fan, who stood to the side, was straightforward and didn’t know what to do. After receiving a look from Wei Yingying, he stumbled forward to start pouring wine.

This scene made Lin Chang’an shake his head with a smile, this kid is lucky, but the greater fortune is that he has a good mother.

Lu Qingqing has always been intelligent and has a sense of the bigger picture.

She probably already set her sights on this girl; although Wei Yingying is pretty crafty, the older the wiser.

"That’s right, a cultivator can’t just shut themselves away."

"Uncle Lin, you don’t know how many Tribulation Cultivators we encountered in these six months, and so many of them are truly despicable, even harming their own friends and relatives..."

While Wei Yingying chattered away, Lin Chang’an squinted his eyes, listening to the outside information.

Since the moment they entered, he had noticed an air of lethal resolve around the two, an aura that could only come from real experiences outside.

Parental hearts are truly full of worry, always doing their utmost for their children.

Wei Yingying was also clever, having learned from Aunt Lu Qingqing that Lin Chang’an enjoyed hearing about outside information.

So she spoke in detail about the changes outside and the situation in the Yue Kingdom, while also interspersing casual chats about other matters.

"Brother Yifan has already broken through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer, but unfortunately, his personality remains quite reserved, and he’ll only smile when he sees Sister Bingyun, and Uncle Li has aged a lot..."

She spoke extensively, causing Lin Chang’an to sigh with emotion.

Li Erniu, these years, has been occupied with looking after his children and holding important positions within the clan, long forgetting his former ambition of wanting to reach the Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

But that’s not bad either, living a full and satisfied life.

Even though Wei Buyi has become a Tier One Upper Grade Pill Master, due to the rewards offered, he’s been secretly performing alchemy in hiding; according to Yingying, he’s saving for a dowry.

As for Shen Lie and Lu Qingqing, over these years, all their resources have been directed towards Shen Fan.

It’s safe to say everyone is living fulfilled lives, though they’re all getting older.

"Now in their sixties, able to live peacefully; it’s truly a blessing from heaven."

Lin Chang’an shook his head with a smile, but Wei Yingying, speaking of some of the Tribulation Cultivator rumors and situations heard from the patrol team, also made him frown slightly.

Tribulation Cultivators are becoming more numerous, especially as many probably never intended to become Tribulation Cultivators but couldn’t resist the temptation from those around them.

After playing the part temporarily, they found no way back.

"Cultivate well, especially you, young lady, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, strength is everything; don’t let your cleverness turn into a joke."

"Uncle Lin, don’t worry, I’ve been working hard on my cultivation."

Saying this, Wei Yingying proudly displayed her cultivation at Qi Refining Fourth Layer.

Subsequently, Lin Chang’an smiled and shook his head, offering some guidance on their cultivating issues.

This young lady is wise, never losing her manners during any visit, and she always brings something good.

Currently, more than half of the spirit plants in and around his cave dwelling were planted by this young lady, having taken quite a bit from Wei Buyi’s Spirit Stone Bag.

Clearly, everything this girl does is for Shen Fan, which causes Wei Buyi to glare every time he sees Shen Fan.

Wei Yingying looks overjoyed; her purpose in coming, besides bringing Shen Fan for some guidance, is more about maintaining this human relationship.

After all, the relationships of the parental generation have little to do with their own generation.

If not properly maintained, they would only be acquaintances by name.

Before leaving, Wei Yingying also didn’t forget to tend to the numerous spirit plants in Lin Chang’an’s cave dwelling, knowing well she is a Spirit Plant Cultivator.

After everyone had left, Lin Chang’an began preparing to head to the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, outwardly claiming to be going into seclusion for cultivation for a while.
