Chapter 499: Naturally, I Believe You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Cultivator Fang did not exchange pleasantries and went straight to the point, “The elder has arrived in the Central Yan Continent. Please come with me.”
After saying that, he said to the few Lin family ancestors behind him, “After this matter is completed, I’ll send the Saint Child back safely.”
Seeing that he was anxious, Lin Xuan nodded and turned to close the courtyard door. He gestured to him, “Then let’s go!”
However, the cultivator did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked behind Lin Xuan as if he was looking at something, “Then…”
Lin Xuan naturally knew what he was looking at. He said, “Yes, yes. Let’s go!”!!
They quickly arrived at the Treasure Pavilion in Lin Jin City. Lin Xuan followed the cultivator and finally arrived at the core of the Treasure Pavilion.
“This way, please!”
Lin Xuan stood under the tower. This was the tower he saw last time but did not enter.
He followed Cultivator Fang in and went around the pavilion.
“The elder is inside.”
Lin Jian looked up and saw a skinny cultivator. Looking at his appearance, he knew that he had been tortured by the corrosive power to the point of being unrecognizable.
When he heard the commotion, he only raised his eyes slightly to look at Lin Xuan before lowering his head again. His expression was painful, as if he was enduring endless torture.
“Where’s the True Dragon?” A hoarse voice sounded.
Lin Xuan opened the Qilin Bag, and the True Dragon cub appeared.
The eyes of the surrounding people instantly lit up as they stretched out their hands towards the True Dragon.
However, in the next second, the True Dragon cub disappeared into the air.
Meeting the puzzled gazes of the surrounding cultivators, Lin Xuan said, “Form the spirit contract first. After the spirit contract is formed, I’ll let the True Dragon heal your elder.”
The surrounding people looked at their elder in silence. The thin elder slowly stretched out his hand, and a spiritual light rose from his hand. This was the reaction of the spirit contract.
When Lin Xuan saw this, he stretched out his hand and placed it on the spiritual light.
In an instant, a spiritual light flashed, and the spirit contract formed and rose into the sky.
The hoarse voice sounded again. “Done!”
Lin Xuan did not say anything and released the True Dragon cub from the Qilin Bag.
“Go.” Lin Xuan fed the True Dragon cub a spiritual fruit.
Not long after, the air was filled with the aura of a True Dragon. The surrounding cultivators stared at their elders with burning eyes, afraid that they would miss a detail.
Soon, the True Dragon Qi was injected into the cultivator’s spirit meridians. The corrosive power on his body was quickly eliminated by the True Dragon Qi.
When the elder saw this, he stretched out his hands in disbelief. The corrosive power that had tortured him for so long had actually dissipated so easily in the True Dragon Qi.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell silent, and then voices knelt on the ground in unison, “Congratulations, Elder!”
“Hahaha…!” A carefree laughter resounded in the tower.
At this moment, Cultivator Fang walked in front of Lin Xuan and bowed deeply to him. His expression was very respectful, “Saint Child Lin, I am extremely grateful for this. I will definitely do what I promised you.”
“Please wait for my good news.”
Lin Xuan returned the greeting, “Naturally, I believe you.”
The spirit contract was still there. With such an important person of the Fang family forming a spirit contract with him, would he risk the consequences of violating the spirit contract and break it?
The power of corrosion was considered a terminal illness, so the consequences of violating the soul contract were similar. No one in the Profound Sky Land dared to challenge the soul contract.
This was especially true for a mighty cultivator. He knew the consequences of violating the soul contract.
Lin Xuan took the opportunity to quickly look at the elder and knew that this person had a pivotal position in their family.
Just now, he had seen that person wearing a purple-gold robe. The robe was embroidered with a large number of exquisite phoenix flowers. This was a technique that only the direct descendants of the Fang family could possess.
The symbol of a direct descendant!
Lin Xuan contacted the cultivator next door the day before yesterday and explained the family secrets of the Profound Sky Land to him. He naturally guessed that the cultivator who formed a contract with him was the second elder of the Fang family, Fang Minyue.
The Fang family’s history in the Profound Sky Land could be traced back to the holy war ten thousand years ago. Legend had it that the Fang family was a family that served a god.
The reason why Lin Xuan agreed so readily was because he was not afraid of the various dangers brought by the True Dragon cub after it was exposed.
If he obtained the help of the Fang family, he would definitely be able to shine in this Golden Banquet and make the hundred great families of the Profound Sky Land look at the Lin family in a different light.
Lin Xuan saw that his mission here had been completed. He bade farewell to the other party’s cultivator and said, “Since the corrosive power of the respected elder has been resolved, my mission is completed.”
“Senior needs to rest well, then I won’t disturb you!”
Cultivator Fang gestured to Lin Xuan, “Saint Child, I’ll send you off. This way, please!”
Lin Xuan turned around and planned to follow behind Cultivator Fang and leave this tower.
At this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly sounded from behind.
“Please stay!”
Lin Xuan turned around and looked at that person. He saw the Second Elder of the Fang family stand up from the bed. The small cultivator beside him hurriedly went forward and wanted to support him, but he only waved his hand weakly and asked people to leave.
He said to Lin Xuan, “Thank you for saving my life, Saint Child.”
Second Elder Fang stretched out his hand, and an ancient and simple box suddenly appeared in his hand.
“This is a thank you gift. Please accept it, Saint Child Lin.”
“Isn’t this already a spirit contract? Why is there another gift? Should I accept it or not?
In Second Elder Fang’s weak eyes, he saw that Lin Xuan was a little hesitant, so he said to him, “Accept it. This is my thank you gift. I can definitely do what I promised Saint Child Lin!”
When Lin Xuan saw this, he smiled in embarrassment. He accepted the box and thanked the Second Elder without even looking, “Then I’ll accept it!”
After saying that, he cupped his hands at the Second Elder and bade farewell.
The Second Elder waved his hand. Although he had been tortured by the corrosive power for many years, the aura of a mighty cultivator was still there, making others not dare to look at him directly.
Lin Xuan followed behind Cultivator Fang and left the tower.
The cultivators they encountered along the way stopped and bowed respectfully to Lin Xuan, their expressions filled with gratitude.
Lin Xuan naturally sensed this change in attitude!
Along the way, Lin Xuan received gazes that were like stars in the sky. Even when he was sent out of the Treasure Pavilion like an honored guest, Lin Xuan could still feel grateful gazes lingering around him.
When Lin Xuan returned to the bamboo hut late at night, he discovered that the few ancestors were not asleep and were waiting for him in the courtyard.
As soon as Lin Bao heard a sound at the door, he immediately took a few steps towards it. Seeing the door open and Lin Xuan’s face appear, he heaved a sigh of relief.
