o take the seedling away, but unexpectedly, Lin Qi raised his hand and cast a small thunderbolt technique.Lightning flashed before their eyes, a terrifying aura instantly pervading the surroundings. S...Who knows if a crazed, foreign cultivator might suddenly appear and indiscriminately slaughter innocents

Over eighteen years, these Mahayana accomplished monks never truly relaxed.

Only now does the burden on my shoulders feel lifted.

After sending the person away, Lin Qi didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, she stayed at Yun Huang Tian Gong for another half month.

Over the past half month, she scoured the Cloud Phoenix Heavenly Palace for weaknesses, eventually finding several passages and sealing them. She also sent all the restless cultivators from outside back home.

Slowly, no more cultivators from the outside world came to Yunhuang Heavenly Palace.

Lin Qi once again set up a spatial shuttle formation within the Yun Huang Heavenly Palace, just in case.

After leaving, she first returned to Tianyi Sect.

I have taken care of all the remaining matters from these past years.

I returned to Taiji Peak to pay respects to Master Taiji. I also brought Tianmang with me, fulfilling my responsibility of teaching him.

At first, Lin Qi accepted the request of Shen Jun, the Daoist priest, to bring Tian Mang from the Heavenly Demon Palace back to Taiji Peak. Following the advice of the Taiji Sovereign, he took Tian Mang as his disciple, thus resolving the conflicts between the Tiangang and Zhonlei peaks.

Unbeknownst to her, Lin Qi later went around tirelessly, placing Tianmang on Taiji Peak. She never taught Tianmang a single thing and didn't make any effort to resolve the conflict between the two factions.

She really wanted to help, but she was too busy. Now that she finally had some free time, she wanted to teach him well.

When I have time, I'll go back to Dongzhou and teach Xu Zhifang again together.

However, the Venerable Taiji did give Lin Qi many good news.

"Things you haven't done, your disciple Tianmang has already done for you."

Lin Qi was quite surprised: "Ancestors, do you mean that Tianmang resolved the conflict between the Shenjun and Shenche lineages"

"Conflict is not something that can be resolved, but rather it pushes two peaks toward harmony. She has indeed done a lot to achieve this."

"If the two peaks could coexist harmoniously, it would indeed be a great blessing. Ultimately, the path that future generations must take is one they forge themselves. Looking forward is the right way. Dwelling on past grievances only leads to stagnation."

That's the same principle.

Through the words of the Taiji Venerable, Lin Qi only then learned of everything Heavenly Radiance had done.

>More than twenty years have passed, and Tianmang has grown from a small sapling of withered wood into a towering tree.

Although cultivation is still impossible, his strength has increased greatly.

To her, cultivation wasn't a good thing.

After Tian Yizong was dealt with, the Sect Master Guang Mu Zhenjun sent her an invitation.

When Lin Qi received the red invitation, there was still a hint of curiosity in her.

Among the people she knows, one of them is actually going to become her life partner

As soon as the posting was unfolded, Gu Yunchi and Ning Sangyu's names were clearly written on it.

"It's them..."

It was a bit of a surprise, but not entirely unexpected.

Since Xie Hanzhi's death, Ning Shangyu has returned to normal.

When Gu Yunchi and Ning Sangyu were repairing the eight Heavenly Thunder Pillars of Zhong Lei Peak, their interactions were quite interesting.

At that time, Lin Qi was still young and innocent, unable to see the red thread of fate binding the two together.

It's ironic that I received the invitation. Thinking back, I suddenly had a moment of clarity.

This was Lin Qi's first time receiving a wedding invitation, she immediately kept it well and replied that she would definitely go.

After Tianyi Sect's affairs are handled, we still need to return to Huocheng and find Lin Qi.

Just as Lin Qi was about to return to the Lin family, someone suddenly informed her that Chu Jiucheng from Zhongzhou had come to pay a visit.

Lin Qi stopped her journey and went to see Chu Jiu Cheng first.

Eighteen years passed, Chu Jiu Cheng remained as handsome as ever, only his youthful simplicity was replaced by a touch of maturity.

"Brother Chu, are you traveling in the Southern States"

"No, she came from Zhongzhou especially to find you after hearing that Senior Sister Lin had returned from Yunhuang Tian Palace."

Lin Qi was quite surprised.

As for her feelings for Chu Jiucheng... they didn't seem too deep.

This is quite a surprise, finding someone specifically from Zhongzhou in Nanzhou.

However, thinking back to when they first met, Chu Jiu Cheng's strength far surpassed hers. When the two simply sparred with swords, Lin Qi also lost by half a move.

When I was young and full of fighting spirit.

After decades, Chu Jiu Cheng was now calling her senior sister.

Lin Qi suddenly felt a little wistful.

You came seeking me, but what is the matter

Chu Jiu Cheng slowly shook his head. "It's not that I have something to ask you, it's an elder in my family."

"An elder"

Lin Qi was puzzled.

She only met Chu Jiucheng, so she didn't know who he was talking about when he mentioned his elders.

As Chu Jiu Cheng's voice fell, a cultivator in a dark blue patterned robe appeared before them.

Lin Qi asked doubtfully, “Sir, you are…”

The robed monk took off the hat on his head and looked straight at Lin Qi.

It is a very handsome and elegant face.

He resembles Chu Jiu Cheng by five points, but compared to Chu Jiu Cheng's youthfulness,

To be replaced later.

She lifted Lin Qi out of her arms.

"Stand at attention!"

A majestic and aloof voice carried a chill, yet the gentle movements of his hands inadvertently revealed a hint of tenderness.

Lin Qi involuntarily stood up straight, her nose twitching unconsciously.

Gong Shaojun took a handkerchief to wipe the dirt and tears from her face. His movements paused when they touched the two bumps on her forehead.

This is not the first time.

Lin Qi was born missing a soul and spirit, specifically the earth soul and the spiritual essence. As a result, he exhibited symptoms similar to those of an idiot.

When playing outside, I always get bullied and come home with injuries every time.

When asked who hurt her, she didn't even know she was hurt herself.

She can protect her for a while, but she can't protect her forever.

Gong Shaojun sighed, "You're here just in time, let's take a look together!"

She waved her hand, and everything that happened in the ancestral hall was projected onto her face.

Lin Qi saw his father being pressed onto a long bench and beaten. The iron board landed on his father's body, each strike making him howl in pain.

Grandaunt and her "mother" sat in the front, their faces calm and indifferent.

Grandaunt inquired of her maternal relative, "Daughter-in-law, this fool has wronged you and done something disgraceful to our family. He deserves to be killed. But he is still the head of the Lin family... As long as we spare his life, how you deal with him afterward is up to you!"

'Mother' leisurely sipped two cups of tea before nonchalantly dropping a bombshell.

"Last night, I was lucky enough to break through to the Nascent Soul stage."

Lin Qi saw her great-grandmother standing in astonishment.

Then, furious, he ordered the servants: "Beat him! Beat him hard! If he's dead, throw him out!"

The servant, frightened, increased his strength.

The father’s screams grew louder and louder, each one worse than the last, and he spat out several mouthfuls of blood.

"When the time was right," her mother said, cautiously, "Auntie, there's no need to be angry. Lin Jie is a meek person, not suited for being head of the family at all. Why not take this opportunity to have him step down and replace him with someone else... what do you think"

Lin Qi looked at her great-grandmother's face turning purple.

She loathed her father's incompetence and seethed at her mother's relentless pressure.

In this remote frontier town, a single Nascent Soul cultivator could guarantee the Lin family a thousand years of peace.

If Gong Shaojun were to divorce in a fit of anger and marry someone else, even Grandmother wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

The Lin family cannot anger this Nascent Soul cultivator.."It's not too late now.Lin Qi sat down on the ground with a thud and said, "I won't resist, hit me."Dan Yue glanced at him with a clear gaze. In an elegant posture, she crossed her legs on the groun...
