They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - Chapter 61
The Lin family is considered the first immortal dao family of Tianxing City.
This, in fact, is related to Lin Nantian’s experiences in his early years.
In the upper realm’s Lin family, the old master was among those with lesser talent, yet he belonged to a collateral bloodline with better talent.
The collateral bloodline of the Lin family, in their development in the middle realm, had dwindled over two hundred years ago, leaving only Lin Nantian alive.
Naturally, Lin Nantian became the sole steward of the Lin family’s collateral bloodline.
The current Lin family not only possesses two medium spirit veins but also owns a large spirit vein, with even their mansion built atop this vein.
The terrain is vast, spanning several streets, all belonging to the Lin family.
On his way to Lin Nantian’s residence, Lin Zhan noticed a change in his wife, Gu Ningxin.
Had she become younger and more beautiful?
Gu Ningxin covered her mouth and laughed, “It’s all thanks to Mo’er’s efforts. The longevity pill and the beauty-preserving pill he had me take last night worked wonders. This morning, I found not a single wrinkle on my face, and even the white hairs on my head turned black.”
“Mo’er, what quality of longevity pill did you use for your mother?” Lin Zhan asked curiously.
He had not failed to find longevity pills for Gu Ningxin before,
but the pills were not only rare but also exorbitantly priced.
After many years, he had finally obtained a second-grade longevity pill for Gu Ningxin to consume.
But the effects weren’t as good as they are now, right?
“Grade five,” Lin Mo declared.
“Grade five?” Lin Zhan gasped in astonishment.
At the Treasure Pavilion auction ten years ago, a grade four life-extending pill was incredibly sought after.
Many cultivators on the brink of death or just a step away from a breakthrough, whether in the Nascent Soul or even the Divided Spirit stage, were frantically bidding up the price.
Back then, it sold for a staggering 12 million spirit stones.
Pulling Lin Mo aside, Lin Zhan whispered, “Mo’er, do you still have any of those grade five life-extending pills?”
“Your grandfather’s lifespan is only a few decades away, and he’s still stuck at the late Nascent Soul stage without any signs of a breakthrough…”
Lin Mo knew exactly what his father was thinking and smiled, “Don’t worry, Dad, I’ve saved some for Grandpa. It’ll be the perfect birthday gift.”
Lin Zhan gave Lin Mo a look of approval.
Now that his son had broken through to the Golden Core stage in one fell swoop, and with this generous gift, surely his father would look upon their family with renewed favor.
Besides, even though he had wasted more than twenty years, it was thanks to his son that he could resume normal cultivation, which naturally elevated his status within the family.
With this thought, Lin Zhan couldn’t help but smile.
“What’s got you so happy?” Seeing her husband smiling like a child, Gu Ningxin patted his shoulder.
“You’ve given me such a fine son, of course, I’m happy.”
Lin Zhan didn’t care for propriety and planted a kiss on Gu Ningxin’s cheek.
“What are you doing, making a fuss? Mo’er is still here.” Blushing, Gu Ningxin cast a disapproving glance at her husband.
Lin Mo had just lamented his parents’ public display of affection when he saw his father’s big mouth coming for a kiss too, startling him so much that he retreated several dozen steps in a single breath.
“You little rascal, running so fast!”
Lin Mo thought to himself, considering you’re my dad, it’s already good that I didn’t strike back.
If it were any other man coming at him like that, he would have greeted them with a punch long ago.
After all, his father’s face looked no different in age from his own.
If that kiss had landed, the psychological shadow would probably haunt him for life.
…
Arriving at Lin Nantian’s residence.
Pavilions and towers were surrounded by spirit-gathering arrays of all sizes.
Rare spirit plants were everywhere, and the spiritual energy was incredibly dense.
Lin Mo compared it in his mind; this place had a spiritual energy concentration 30% richer than that of his master, the Real Moonhua’s dwelling.
Inside the hall, all the Lin family’s younger generation had gathered.
As he entered, hundreds of gazes turned towards Lin Mo.
Among the younger generation of the Lin family, aside from the few who had met Lin Mo yesterday, the rest did not recognize him, and they couldn’t help but become curious, quietly discussing the identity of this person.
Judging by his attire and demeanor, Lin Mo did not seem like a simple character at first glance.
And those of Lin Mo’s father’s generation, who knew of Lin Mo’s identity, also sighed inwardly at the great changes in Lin Mo over the years.
Lin Zhan greeted the elder seated in the place of honor, saying, “Father, Lin Zhan brings his wife and child to wish you longevity!”
The group of younger Lins who had not seen Lin Mo before couldn’t help but widen their eyes.
Was this the fiancé of the Jiang family’s proud daughter, the little uncle who had rarely shown his face?
“Zhan’er, have you broken through?” The moment he saw Lin Zhan, Lin Nantian’s pupils shrank, and his expression changed slightly.
How could he not be shocked!
Just yesterday, Lin Zhan’s aura was about to fall back to the early stage of the Golden Core, how could he have broken through to the late stage of the Golden Core overnight?
Not just Lin Nantian, all the Lins were shocked, wondering how Lin Zhan could have broken through.
Lin Zhan’s chronic illness, which had spread throughout the Lin family in earlier years, was well known; this once proud scion of the Lin family was unable to advance in his cultivation.
If Lin Zhan could truly cultivate normally, the internal situation of the Lin family would greatly change.
Lin Zhan proudly said, “All thanks to Mo’er, who found me the elixir to cure my chronic illness on his return.”
Lin Nantian quickly got up to examine Lin Zhan’s condition.
“It really has recovered!” Lin Nantian couldn’t help but rejoice.
Even though Lin Zhan had neglected his cultivation for over twenty years.
But Lin Zhan was a seventh-grade Golden Core, with a heavenly spiritual root aptitude.
Now, still under fifty years old, the prospects of reaching the Spirit Severing or even the Nascent Soul stage were not small.
However, thinking of his own impending mortality and the lack of signs of breakthrough,
He probably wouldn’t live to see the day they returned to the main family in the upper realm, and the joy in his eyes dimmed a bit.
“Greetings, Grandfather!”
Lin Nantian’s attention had been all on Lin Zhan just now, and only then did he start to take a good look at his little grandson.
Since Lin Mo’s birth, he had been indifferent to this little grandson.
This was also because Lin Zhan had married a mortal as his Dao companion, which had also damaged his own foundation.
Even though he had heard that this little grandson had been born with a decent talent, possessing dual spiritual roots, his attitude had never changed.
Today, seeing him for the first time, he noticed that his little grandson had actually formed his Golden Core?
Calculating the time, this little grandson was only twenty-five?
Although not as exceptional as his father, with the aptitude of dual spiritual roots, forming the Golden Core so early, he could also be considered a genius.
“Child, stretch out your hand, let Grandfather have a look.”
Knowing that his grandfather wanted to assess the quality of his Golden Core, Lin Mo did not hesitate to extend his hand.
From noble mtl dot come
“How strange, how strange.”
After a thorough investigation, Lin Nantian’s brows were deeply furrowed.
His own grandson’s golden core was flawless on the outside, even more perfect than Lin Zhan’s.
But why was its luster so dim?
Lin Mo naturally knew what his grandfather was puzzled about.
Half of his golden core was filled with demonic energy, which diminished its original luster.
However, this demonic energy complemented the spiritual energy and was not outwardly visible, so Lin Nantian couldn’t detect it.
