Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

``` "Hehe..." Seeing that Lin Tianming was indeed cautious, Wang Zhi smiled without revealing anything out of the ordinary but patiently explained. "If Daoist Lin doesn't join a team, it will be very difficult to obtain a spot to enter the Tianfeng Wind Secret Realm." "This time, aside from Li, there are at least a dozen other senior brothers inviting external cultivators to form teams. In such a situation, no matter how strong you are alone, how can you compare with a team?" "Besides, regarding the dangers, whether following the main force or teaming up with the senior brothers to fight the demonic beasts, how could there not be danger?" "Risk and reward coexist, Daoist Lin has been cultivating for decades, so you shouldn't need me to remind you of this!" Having said all this, Wang Zhi changed his tone and then sincerely added, "As for the benefits, Li didn't say much." "However, at the very least, in Qianchuan Market, Daoist Lin can rest assured. As long as the market doesn't encounter any accidents and the Lin Family Members don't stir up trouble, as one of the Market City Supervisors, I can certainly assist your Lin Family and ensure the safety of your family members." Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming was somewhat tempted. Before leaving, he had also been worried about Lin Xingyan and the others. Having someone like Wang Zhi, with his status, looking after them meant he would have no worries. Moreover, speaking of the dangers at the front lines, whether joining or not, they would all be at great risk. Upon arriving at the battlefield, one must follow the orders of the Zhenyang Sect. If the higher-ups intended to target him, he would have no way to resist. With lower strength, he would have to carry out even the most dangerous missions. In this way, since there were risks either way and he couldn't control the situation, he might as well join Li Xiuyuan's team. Maybe, given his disciple status, he could be a bit safer. Thinking of all this, Lin Tianming made up his mind to temporarily join the team, relying on the warmth of the group for possible unexpected benefits. Deciding, Lin Tianming immediately said, "Daoist Wang, I am willing to join Li's team!" Upon hearing this, Wang Zhi smiled knowingly and then responded, "Daoist Lin doesn't need to make a statement right now. I am just informing you in advance. When you get to the front lines, you can visit Li. He will clarify this matter in person!" "When the time comes, there might be other brothers recruiting you, so you can make your decision then; there's no hurry!" Hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded and smiled, "In that case, that's for the best." "However, I still have to thank Daoist Wang for the reminder. Li has been very kind to me and Luoyun Pavilion. As long as it doesn't involve life and death, I won't hesitate to join his team." "Hmm... Li has indeed not misjudged you!" Wang Zhi laughed and praised. At this point, Lin Tianming bowed with clasped hands and then took out twenty thousand spirit stones from his storage bag and handed them to Wang Zhi. Afterwards, he sincerely said, "Daoist Wang, this is a small token from our Lin Family. Please accept it and, when circumstances permit, help keep an eye on Luoyun Pavilion and our Lin Family Members. Once the demonic beast tide recedes, our Lin Family will certainly offer significant gratitude!" Hearing these sincere words, Wang Zhi nodded appreciatively of Lin Tianming. After all, he took the polite words he had said for real and generously offered tangible benefits. This kind of upfront person, unconcerned about small gains and losses, combined with his exceptional talent, was indeed worthy of making a deeper connection. Regathering his thoughts, Wang Zhi didn't play coy, smiling as he took the spirit stones from Lin Tianming's hand and accepted them, then reassured him that he would keep his promises. Seeing this, Lin Tianming nodded. With no further worries, he could now head to the front lines to participate in the great battle with peace of mind. Then, Lin Tianming gave a few instructions, confirming the arrangements for Luoyun Pavilion and Lin Xingyan and the others. After making sure everything was taken care of, Lin Tianming clasped his hands to say goodbye. After some pleasantries, the two left the secret chamber together, and Lin Tianming returned to the Cave Mansion Courtyard with Qin Xi. By this time, the sky had gradually darkened. After a whole day of attending the auction and the exchange meeting, they had been busy until now. Only then did Lin Tianming and his companion get a chance to relax. Back at the Cave Mansion Courtyard, Qin Xi exchanged a few pleasantries and then returned to her own secret chamber to cultivate. Lin Tianming called over Lin Xingyan and the two other family members, and they sat down in the courtyard to chat. Looking at the three slightly excited faces, Lin Tianming chuckled and asked, "Seeing the uncles' expressions, you must have had a good haul at the auction today, right?" ``` Upon hearing this, Lin Xingpu immediately became interested, eagerly chatting away non-stop. "Hehe... Don't think that just because this auction was hastily organized, it didn't have its fair share of rarely seen treasures..." "Yeah... items like the Sky Fei Fruit, Pozhang Pill, and those last few Foundation Establishment Pills, they all fetched sky-high prices!" Lin Xingzhao also said excitedly. "How did it go for the two of you, uncles?" Lin Tianming asked. At these words, Lin Xingpu glanced at Lin Xingzhao and then said, "Xingzhao, you won a Sky Fei Fruit. If you focus on seclusion for half a year, you should be able to break through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, right?" Lin Xingzhao nodded excitedly, saying, "If I'm in seclusion for half a year, indeed, I do have a fair chance!" Hearing his affirmative response, it won't be long before Lin Xingzhao advances to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining. Several Qi Refining clanspeople here are all of the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining cultivation. Perhaps upon returning to the family lands, they could break through to the Great Perfection Realm and start impacting the Foundation Establishment Stage. Thinking of this, Lin Xingyan and the others couldn't hide their excitement, and smiles of long absence appeared on their faces. However, with Lin Tianming leaving the market city in a few days, only a few Lin Family members will remain here without a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to support them. Their power would be too weak, and should anything happen, the pressure on them would be immense. With these thoughts, Lin Xingyan's smile faded slightly, and he looked visibly worried. Seeing the change in his expression, Lin Tianming looked at his family members and then said with a smile, "Uncle Xingyan... I estimate that in two days I will leave the market city. The heavy responsibility of Luoyun Pavilion will fall upon the three of you elders." "However, before I leave, Wang Zhi, one of the current Market City Supervisors, has promised to give the Lin family members, as well as Luoyun Pavilion, some special consideration." "Everyone, rest assured, as long as there's no major trouble and you don't invite disputes, the safety of our family members and Luoyun Pavilion is absolutely guaranteed!" Hearing this, the worry on Lin Xingyan's face was swept away. "Really? The current Market City Supervisor is willing to offer us some special treatment?" Lin Xingyan asked further. "Really!" "We had a good personal relationship with the former Market City Supervisor. Before Li left, he specifically instructed his junior brother, so the current Supervisor is also willing to make friends with the Lin Family and is happy to grant us some small favors." Lin Tianming confirmed with a response, but he didn't mention the private agreements to avoid giving the family members any trouble. Hearing his confirmed response, Lin Xingyan and the others smiled again, and the tension that had been in their hearts eased. Lin Tianming also smiled following this, and then he inquired about the Luoyun Pavilion's business situation over the past few days from Lin Xingyan. Lin Xingyan took out the account book and handed it to Lin Tianming to review before reporting. "The large batch of treasures you brought in was quickly placed in the shop, and business has significantly improved in recent days. Even though it hasn't reached its peak, it's about seventy to eighty percent there." "I believe that as time goes on and more of our regular customers hear about it, business will continue to pick up in the following days, gradually returning to its former glory." "Hmm..." Lin Tianming nodded and then said, "The only issue is that we don't know when this beast tide will end. At this rate, this batch of treasures might not last a year." "But while I'm at the front lines, I'll have chances to visit the market city. Moreover, I discussed with the Clan Leader before leaving our family home; if I haven't returned in half a year, depending on the Demonic Beast attacks, and if the conditions allow, we may send a Foundation Establishment Cultivator to the market city." Hearing this, Lin Xingyan nodded and said, "Hehe... Tianming, you've arranged everything so thoughtfully; we can rest easy now." "Let's stick to this plan then. In a few days when I leave the market, I won't say goodbye to everyone." "The situation here in the market will be entrusted to the three of you, uncles!" Lin Tianming stood up, cupped his hands respectfully, and spoke sincerely to Lin Xingyan and the others. "Then you be careful, Tianming!" Lin Xingyan cautioned. "Hmm... I will!" After speaking, Lin Tianming stood up and moved deeper into the courtyard, entering his private chamber for seclusion.
