Is That Lin Jin and the Others?!
"Let's go, take me to see the Miaoshou Pharmacy." Lu Yang smiled lightly, his tone casual.
"Yes, young master, please follow me!"
Guan Qiu responded and turned to fly towards the market.
Wang Da activated his Spiritual Qi, gently and steadily lifting Lu Yang and his group to follow.
Fang Xun and the others exchanged glances and silently followed behind.
It would be ideal to befriend such important figures.
If they're lucky, they might even be able to build a connection, which would be a huge benefit to their Lineage.
No one wants to miss such an opportunity.
The large group of people flew towards the core area of the market town, cutting through the twilight.
The robes fluttered in the wind, and a dozen streaks of light trailed long shadows, leaving a dazzling arc in the dim sky.
The cultivators in the market looked up at this scene, completely silent.
In their hearts, the Fang Household patriarch, the Deft Hands True Person... these were all incredibly important figures.
It's already a rare stroke of luck to catch a glimpse of someone from afar on a normal day.
They never imagined that such a person would show warmth and even a fawning smile.
When their gazes fell upon the young man surrounded by a crowd, an undisguised look of amazement and shock appeared in everyone's eyes.
Dusk and luminous light intertwined around him, outlining an almost unreal silhouette.
More than half of the cultivators in the crowd were in a daze, their minds blank from the impact of that invisible charm, and they just stared blankly.
It wasn't until Lu Yang and his group disappeared into the air and among the towering buildings of the streets that they gradually came to their senses.
The cultivators, regaining their senses, looked at each other in bewilderment and discussed what they had just witnessed via telepathy.
Meanwhile, Lu Yang had already followed Guan Qiu to the air not far from the Miaoshou Pharmacy.
The four-story pavilion was brightly lit in the night. The vermilion pillars reflected a warm luster under the light of the lamp in front of the door, and the black plaque with gold characters on the lintel emitted a faint Spiritual Qi.
The door was wide open, and waves of medicinal fragrance wafted out, mingling with the bitter scent of sandalwood and herbs, spreading a warm aroma on the bluestone steps in front of the door.
Guan Qiu originally intended to lead Lu Yang directly from outside the attic to the top floor.
That was where she usually entertained guests, refined elixirs, and cultivated her spiritual practice.
Lu Yang raised his hand to stop her, and chuckled, "Let's go from the first floor. I want to take a closer look inside."
Guan Qiu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly and respectfully said, "Young Master, you are right, it was my oversight!"
Lin Mingyue and the other two, who had been standing quietly to the side, all widened their eyes upon hearing this.
All three heads turned to look at Lu Yang at the same time, their eyes filled with barely suppressed excitement and agitation.
Lu Yang winked at them gently, his eyes full of smiles.
Lin Mingyue and the other two felt a sudden boom in their minds, and a surge of scalding heat rushed up from their chests, causing their bodies to tremble slightly.
They realized that their brother-in-law must have overheard their earlier conversation, which was why he deliberately walked through the door.
This is to stand up for them!
My brother-in-law is invincible!!
The three of them screamed wildly in their hearts.
Lin Jin, unable to contain his excitement, secretly transmitted his voice to Lin Ying, shouting, "Sister! If you treat your brother-in-law badly in the future, don't blame me for turning against him for the greater good!!"
Lin Ying: "???"
She silently turned her head and looked at Lin Jin, her usually gentle face now showing a very calm expression.
Lin Jin felt as if the temperature around him had suddenly dropped a few degrees.
He shuddered violently, a chill running from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
Broken!
I was too excited just now and didn't distinguish between the King and Queen!
Fortunately, Lin Jin was flexible and immediately made amends by transmitting his voice without changing his expression. "Good sister, I believe you would never treat your brother-in-law badly! I was just joking, really, just joking!"
Lin Ying slowly withdrew her gaze and let out a soft hum.
She looked at Lu Yang's composed profile and Sound Dao, "Junior Brother Lu... you spoil the three of them too much. Look at them, don't spoil them too much."
Lu Yang smiled slightly and replied telepathically, "After all, they are your younger brother and sister. Since they have been bullied, as their brother-in-law, I should stand up for them."
Lin Ying pursed her red lips and said nothing more.
The evening breeze brushed against her cheeks, a little cool, but her heart was filled with warmth.
She asked for nothing more than for Junior Brother Lu to have her in his heart.
In an inconspicuous corner outside the main gate of Miaoshou Pharmacy.
Deng Xian and the other three were also craning their necks to look around.
They had clearly seen what happened in the sky just now: seven Golden Core True Person bowed in unison, a display so grand that they dared not even breathe too loudly.
When they saw the group of people flying straight towards Miaoshou Pharmacy, the four of them couldn't help but feel their hearts leap into their throats.
Deng Lin, being the most timid, shrank back half a step and whispered, "Th-those important figures seem to be heading this way. Should we leave first?"
Deng Yu swallowed hard and quickly glanced around.
There were still quite a few cultivators standing at the entrance. Although everyone looked tense, no one dared to make the first move.
He lowered his Sound Dao, "Everyone else is still standing here. If we leave first, won't we become the ones being watched?"
The other three fell silent upon hearing this.
Deng Xian took a deep breath and forced a smile, reassuringly saying, "Don't worry, it should be fine. They didn't fight; they're probably just here to buy medicine from Miaoshou Pharmacy."
The other three nodded slightly, agreeing that there was some truth to what they said.
If they really wanted to take action, they would have done it outside the market long ago. Why wait until now?
The figures in the sky drew closer and closer, and they finally saw clearly the figure surrounded by a group of Golden Core True Person in the middle.
The moment Deng Yue and Deng Lin saw Lu Yang's face, their minds went blank, and all their senses seemed to be stripped away.
The sounds of people coming and going around me disappeared, the coolness of the night breeze vanished, and even my own heartbeat seemed to stop.
All they could see was that handsome, almost unreal face, and that ethereal, otherworldly aura.
The two unconsciously swallowed, their hearts pounding in their chests.
Who is this person...?!
A celestial being has descended to earth??
Although Deng Xian and Deng Yu did not react as violently as the other two, they were also dazed and stared straight at the figure.
It wasn't until the group of people descended from the sky and landed in front of the entrance to the Miaoshou Pharmacy Deng Xian and the other three suddenly came to their senses.
There were already quite a few cultivators gathered outside the main gate.
These people originally intended to go to the medicine shop to buy pills, but they stayed put and watched because of the appearance of the Flowing Light Flying Boat.
At this moment, a group of Golden Core cultivators descended in a mighty procession. Although their spiritual pressure had been restrained, their aura was enough to make one's legs go weak.
The cultivators in the square turned pale and hurriedly retreated, clearing a large open space in the blink of an eye.
The area where Lu Yang and his group were located was open and deserted within a few dozen feet.
Only then did Deng Xian and the other three have the mind to look at the others.
However, when their gaze swept over the three familiar figures beside Lu Yang, the four men's eyes widened suddenly, their pupils trembled violently, and it was as if a thunderclap had exploded in their minds.
Lin Mingyue, Lin Ling, Lin Jin?!
Deng Yu's face turned deathly pale instantly. His lips moved several times before he managed to squeeze out a hoarse sentence. "That... that's Lin Jin and the others?!"
Deng Yue's telepathic message was even more piercing. "How is this possible?! How could they be with such an important figure?!"
She stared intently at Lin Mingyue.
At this moment, Lin Mingyue stood just a few steps away from that ethereal young man, her face beaming with a smug smile.
Deng Yue bit her lower lip, her heart filled with surging jealousy.
How does this woman manage to get so close to that important figure?!
Are you kidding me?!
The Lin Household's strength is undeniable; even the Deng Household cannot compare.
If they have such a background, how could the Lin Household be so weak?!
Deng Xian felt a chill run down his back, and his palms were covered in cold sweat.
At that moment, Lin Mingyue and the other two beside Lu Yang were excitedly looking around, their eyes quickly searching through the crowd.
Soon, Lin Ling spotted Deng Xian and his three companions, who were standing there dumbfounded, in an inconspicuous corner of the crowd.
He immediately sent a telepathic message to Lin Jin and Lin Mingyue, and the two turned to look at the same time.
The three men's gazes cut through the crowd and landed precisely on Deng Xian and his group of four.
The four men, including Deng Xian, were deathly pale, their lips trembling slightly, their eyes filled with undisguised terror.
They huddled in a corner, afraid of being noticed.
Lin Mingyue and the other two watched this scene and simultaneously revealed a half-smile.
The three of them felt as if they had been suffocating under the scorching sun of the hottest days of summer and had suddenly jumped into a cool mountain spring.
It feels incredibly refreshing, from head to toe.
Seemingly sensing their gaze, Deng Xian and the other three trembled violently, then quickly lowered their heads, not daring to look at them again.
Lin Mingyue and the other two exchanged glances, a hint of vengeful pleasure surfacing in their eyes.
These four bastards bullied them a lot before at the One Qi Sect.
Relying on the power and influence of the Deng Household, and on the fact that their grandfather was a second-level Alchemist, they made countless sarcastic remarks and even resorted to violence!
They kept every single one of these accounts in their hearts!
But what about now?
They didn't even dare to raise their heads!
Let's see who dares to bully them after this!
The three of them glanced at Deng Xian and his group of four again before looking away.
If it were in the past, they would have definitely run over there eagerly, stood in front of Deng Xian and the other three, and ridiculed them mercilessly, making up for all the grievances they had suffered over the years.
But now, following their brother-in-law, they feel their horizons have broadened.
With a powerful figure like his brother-in-law backing them up, what are Deng Xian and his three companions?
They're nothing but a few clowns.
If they went over and humiliated this nobody, they would only be making their brother-in-law lose face.
In the hearts of the three, their brother-in-law radiated brilliance, and they were determined not to let him be tainted in the slightest by their own actions.
So the three of them raised their heads, puffed out their chests, and with undisguised smugness on their faces, followed behind Lu Yang and Lin Ying, and stepped across the threshold of the Miaoshou Pharmacy, surrounded by a group of Golden Core cultivators.
