Chapter 439 Reunited with an Old Friend
But that turmoil did not bring any destruction to Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, it only caused the cultivators within Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market to panic for a while.
Now.
When He Song returned from afar and saw this small Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market again, the scene before her was no different from when she left.
His gaze swept across the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market below, faintly shrouded in clouds and mist.
He Song's heart stirred, and he immediately stored the White Jade Boat beneath his feet into his Storage Pouch.
As the White Jade Boat disappeared, He Song's body also rapidly descended downwards.
As the whistling wind continuously resounded in his ears.
He Song, in mid-air, quickly scanned the surroundings of Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market and swiftly determined his location.
After identifying his location and quickly recalling the place he had visited before in his mind.
He Song's gaze suddenly turned in one direction.
There.
Was the direction where Lin Cong's descendants lived.
After confirming the direction, He Song's body instantly transformed into a water-blue escape light in mid-air, silently flying towards the direction in his memory.
Trailing a long water-blue escape light.
He Song's body swept across vast mountains and rivers.
Flying over massive mortal cities.
And crossing over towering mountains.
When He Song's gaze saw the familiar peaks, graves, and town, a stone in his heart also fell to the ground.
This place was the town where Lin Cong's descendants lived, which he had visited decades ago.
Decades ago, here, He Song had bid farewell to Lin Cong's last journey.
Now, decades have passed.
He Song's figure had once again arrived here.
His gaze swept over the scene before him, and a trace of emotion appeared in He Song's expression.
Lin Cong's grave had become larger.
And behind it, some newly built graves had appeared.
This place seemed to have been regarded by Lin Cong's descendants as their ancestral burial ground. Lin family members who died after Lin Cong seemed to be buried here.
Now, this place was no longer as desolate as it was when Lin Cong was first buried.
"Old friend, long time no see, I'm afraid I'll rarely come here to see you again in the future."
"Don't worry, your descendants are doing well now."
"It's just that the situation is turbulent, and for their safety, I have to take them away from here."
He took out some Spirit Tea from his Storage Pouch that he had liked the most during the Qi Condensation Stage.
After brewing it on the spot.
He Song sighed softly towards the grave before him.
Immediately after, he poured the Spirit Tea in his hand in front of the grave.
After doing all this and explaining the purpose of his visit to Lin Cong, He Song's figure slightly moved.
Then quickly transformed into a golden escape light, heading towards the Lin family in the nearby town.
Lin family.
When He Song, trailing a long golden escape light, directly entered the Lin family from the Lin family ancestral graves, he was quickly greeted respectfully by the Lin family members.
Although they originally did not know of He Song's existence.
Nor did they know what kind of relationship Lin Cong had with He Song during his lifetime.
Or how He Song had found this place and them.
But because Lin Cong was a cultivator, and some of the older people among them had lived with Lin Cong in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market.
They still had some understanding of cultivators.
Therefore, upon realizing that He Song's cultivation was unfathomable, and probably the legendary Foundation Establishment True Person, their attitude towards He Song was also completely respectful.
However, within the respect, there was also some unease.
This unease naturally stemmed from the worry that He Song might be Lin Cong's enemy or something similar.
Although He Song did not immediately become ruthless upon arriving here, there were still many cultivators with eccentric personalities.
No one knew whether this unfamiliar Foundation Establishment True Person would attack them next.
After all, to a Foundation Establishment True Person, these mortals were no different from ants.
Thus, the Lin family members remained cautious, and even secretly arranged for family members to prepare for escape.
It was not until He Song explained his purpose and took out the message Lin Cong had sent him before his death, that the Lin family members completely relaxed.
Knowing that He Song was a friend of their family's ancestor, and had come specifically to help the Lin family leave this place.
The Lin family members' attitude towards He Song became even more respectful.
However, because the Lin family had some wealth in this town, and even had descendants doing business in distant cities.
Therefore, it would probably take some time to get all the Lin family members back to this place and leave here under He Song's leadership.
It would take at least half a month to gather all the Lin family members in the Lin family ancestral home and to gather most of the Lin family's property.
If they wanted to take everyone from the Lin family, their property naturally had to be taken along as well.
This was the foundation of their survival and their reliance when going to a new place.
Seeing this situation.
After a little thought, He Song quickly decided to stay in the Lin family for half a month.
In this way, not only could all the Lin family members gather in the Lin family ancestral home.
He Song could also have a rare period of leisure time in the mortal world.
For He Song.
From the moment he transmigrated, he had been based in Bamboo Mountain Immortal Market, and subsequently shuttled continuously within various Immortal Cities and Earth Sect's mountain gate, extremely busy.
Now, He Song's cultivation had grown all the way.
Already reaching the early Golden Core stage from the initial Qi Condensation first layer.
Such a huge increase in cultivation was achieved through He Song's tireless cultivation day and night.
During this time, although He Song had also had moments of leisure, they were mostly spent in Immortal Markets and Immortal Cities.
Spending half a month of leisure time in the mortal world was still an experience He Song had never had before.
And thus, after deciding to stay in the Lin family for half a month, He Song began his daily leisure time in the mortal world.
As time continued to pass.
Lin family members who were away returned one after another.
The Lin family ancestral home also became lively from then on.
By the time half a month quietly passed.
The Lin family members had all gathered in their ancestral home.
Half a month later.
Lin family ancestral home.
Everyone had packed their belongings and stood quietly in front of He Song, led by the eldest elder of the Lin family.
"Get on the flying boat, let's depart."
His gaze swept over the large family of over a hundred people in front of him. There was no change in He Song's eyes, he just waved his hand, and the White Jade Boat flew out from his sleeve, floating quietly in mid-air.
Following He Song's order, the Lin family members quickly boarded the White Jade Boat.
When He Song controlled the White Jade Boat to take off and head into the distance.
The Lin family members on the White Jade Boat all looked back at the location of their ancestral home, and various complex emotions flashed in their eyes.
This ancestral home.
I'm afraid we will never return in the future.
He Song had previously told them.
This place would soon become a cultivator battlefield, a scene of devastation.
That's why he had come specifically to take them to the sphere of influence of another powerful sect tens of thousands of miles away.
Only by being far enough away could this cultivator war not affect them, these mortals living in the mortal world.
Understanding in their hearts that this departure was probably a farewell forever.
For a moment, a strong sense of sadness welled up in the hearts of everyone in the Lin family.
But soon.
When the speed of the White Jade Boat rapidly increased, and the original town quickly disappeared from their sight, they soon regained their senses.
He Song was not good at words.
And did not have much emotion for the Lin family members.
He only came here and took everyone away out of gratitude for Lin Cong.
Therefore, although he had lived in the Lin family during these days, his communication with the Lin family members was very little.
The Lin family members also always held a deep sense of awe for He Song.
The flying boat quickly became quiet.
Until.
Several days later.
He Song, controlling the White Jade Boat, and carrying the hundred-plus Lin family members on the White Jade Boat, passed through the Earth Sect's sphere of influence, and passed through the Qiong Hua Sect's sphere of influence, and entered the One Yang Sect's sphere of influence.
He Song's originally tense mind finally relaxed a little.
The righteous and demon war was raging fiercely, and the Earth Sect and several Golden Core sects around it were on the edge of war.
He Song's journey was naturally cautious.
It was not until he entered the One Yang Sect's sphere of influence, far away from the battlefield of the righteous and demon war, that He Song was slightly relieved, and turned his attention to the Lin family members on the White Jade Boat.
The Lin family members, all had no spiritual roots.
This matter.
Since He Song arrived at the Lin family but did not see any cultivator present, he had had a guess in his heart.
When Lin Cong was still alive, He Song had given him two Jade slips.
One of them recorded a cultivation method that, as long as one had spiritual roots, could complete Qi Induction into the Body.
The other one recorded some shallow Spirit Puppet Technique, for self-defense.
Under such circumstances, if the Lin family members possessed spiritual roots, as long as they had come into contact with the Jade slip containing the cultivation method, they would have been able to successfully induce Qi into their bodies and become true cultivators.
But now, when He Song arrived at the Lin family, he did not see any cultivators present, nor did he see any traces of puppets.
All indications showed that although the Lin family had branched out and multiplied for many years, and the number of people in the family was over a hundred.
But they had never had anyone with spiritual roots appear.
His gaze swept over the Lin family members sitting or standing on the White Jade Boat, and He Song sighed in his heart.
The gap between mortals and cultivators.
Was indeed huge.
Just the two words "spiritual roots" alone could make countless mortals sigh in helplessness.
The hundred-plus Lin family members in front of him were like this.
However.
Just as He Song felt in his heart that among the hundred-plus people in front of him, there was no one with spiritual roots, and continued to control the White Jade Boat to move forward.
A Message Paper Crane flew from afar and landed directly in front of He Song.
Seeing this situation, He Song casually opened his hand, released a wisp of his aura, and took the Message Paper Crane in his hand.
As soon as the Message Paper Crane encountered He Song's aura, it transformed into a thin piece of paper covered in dense writing.
As He Song's gaze was drawn to the writing on the paper in his hand, a suppressed exclamation suddenly sounded on the White Jade Boat.
It seemed to be startled by the arrival of the Message Paper Crane and the scene of He Song casually taking it in his hand.
The Lin family members who were originally sitting or standing all stood up from the White Jade Boat.
It was not until a knowledgeable elder in the family spoke and gently reprimanded them, that they sat down one after another, but their gazes were always directed towards where He Song was.
Seeming to be very curious about what He Song was doing now.
He Song did not care about these gazes.
It was the information on the thin paper in his hand that made He Song more thoughtful.
The Message Paper Crane was sent by Su Qian.
What was said in the letter did make He Song slightly interested.
"Qian'er greets Senior."
"May Senior live a long and boundless life."
"I heard earlier that Senior has returned from afar and intends to bring the descendants of a former friend into the One Yang Sect's territory. Qian'er actually has a good place for this matter."
"A few years ago, Qian'er took in a disciple named An Ning. The An family she belongs to is considered a prominent family in the mortal world and is not far from Flying Cloud Immortal Market."
"If Senior does not mind, you can entrust this matter to An Ning. An Ning will definitely handle it properly and there will be no hidden dangers."
"An Ning is Qian'er's disciple, and her cultivation has now reached the fourth layer of Qi Condensation Stage. She carries great weight in the An family. With her speaking, this matter will surely be settled."
"Moreover, An Ning has always heard of Senior's name, but has never had the chance to meet you."
"If she can see Senior this time, it would be An Ning's blessing."
"Qian'er."
His gaze swept over the delicate handwriting in the letter before him. He Song glanced faintly at the Lin family members on the White Jade Boat.
An Ning.
He Song had never seen this person, and had never even heard of her before Su Qian mentioned her.
But presumably, as Su Qian's disciple, she also knows his identity.
For Su Qian to speak up and mention this matter to him, presumably it was impossible that she was deceiving him.
Moreover, An Ning's cultivation was only at the fourth layer of Qi Condensation Stage, yet she could carry great weight in the An family she belonged to. Perhaps the An family she belonged to was only considered a prominent family in the mortal world.
It had nothing to do with a true cultivation family.
In this case, he only needed to send the Lin family members there and give them some instructions, asking them to live in a remote place.
This should prevent the Lin family members from being involved in the power struggles within the mortal dynasties.
In this way, the safety of the Lin family members would be guaranteed, and he would not need to go through too much trouble to find a place for them to settle down.
It could be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and after pondering for a moment, He Song quickly made a decision.
Since Su Qian had already spoken up.
Then, as she wished, he would take Lin Cong's descendants to settle down around Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
Anyway, settling them down anywhere was settling them down. The area around Flying Cloud Immortal Market was within the sphere of influence of the One Yang Sect, and safety was temporarily not a problem.
After all, this place was also within the sphere of influence of a Nascent Soul Upper Sect.
However, if the One Yang Sect and the God Locking Sect really fought in the future, he would probably have to come here again.
But by then, his strength should have increased again.
After his strength became stronger, even if he came here again, it should be safer than it was now.
With such thoughts, He Song quickly controlled the White Jade Boat and began heading towards Flying Cloud Immortal Market.
