"Understood. Please ask them to sit for a moment. I'll be right there."
Lin Changheng was not surprised by the news and answered at once.
After all, the Xu Family currently had only one High-Grade Pill Master. Gaining another was an enormous cause for celebration.
There was nothing wrong with treating such happy news cautiously and sending someone to confirm it.
He would not even find it strange if the visitor was Xu Qianyan, the family's chief authority on the Pill Dao.
After casting two Cleansing Spells on himself and changing his robes, Lin Changheng moved to open the door and head downstairs.
But after a moment's thought, he stopped, turned, and flicked out a flame. He reduced the ornamental spirit plant he had just revived to ash, even digging out its roots and burning them into nothingness. Only then did he feel safe enough to go downstairs.
This was all because he had realized that the effects of the Divine Ability True Intent of Glorious Life were far too astonishing. If it could revive spirit plants, might it also revive ancient divine seeds and withered treasure herbs?
If anyone discovered it, even if there was only the slightest possibility, would they not capture him, chain him up, and force him to revive spirit seeds and medicinal plants day and night?
The mere thought was suffocating, so Lin Changheng had to leave no room for error.
He destroyed the corpse and erased every trace.
The moment he went downstairs,
Lin Changheng saw an old man seated in a chair, resting with his eyes closed.
His white hair was sparse, and his gaunt face resembled pine bark. It was none other than Xu Qianyan.
"He really did come."
Lin Changheng muttered to himself, then swept his gaze over the others nearby.
