I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 59 - 54 Young Master Shang (Please follow)
Seeing the young master of the merchant family digging out a Horse Hoof Fruit from his food box and starting to munch noisily,
Tian Lin laughed and asked the young master, "What do Second Steward and Third Steward want with me?"
"Where are the Spirit Stones you had?"
"I spent them!"
Tian Lin stood up, and when the young master looked up, he noticed that Tian Lin seemed to have grown taller in just half a month.
"I can now reach the first level of Qi Refinement any moment, all thanks to those few Spirit Stones."
Hearing this, the merchant’s young master laughed.
He tossed half a Horse Hoof Fruit toward the second step of the stone stairs.
As soon as the Horse Hoof Fruit hit the second step, it instantly vanished into powder.
"A few Spirit Stones? It was clearly eleven Spirit Stones, enough for you to cultivate to the second level of Qi Refinement."
The young master clapped his hands, stood up from the ground, and looked straight at Tian Lin, "Do you think Second Steward and Third Steward would believe that?"
"Then I’ll just wait until I reach the second level of Qi Refinement, and after I have spent all the Spirit Stones, I’ll go down the mountain. They surely wouldn’t come to Dao Seeking Mountain just for eleven Spirit Stones, would they?"
The young master’s expression darkened, showing no sign of mere brute strength awareness.
He walked up to Tian Lin, leaned in close, and said:
"Second Steward wouldn’t be happy about this. If he’s not happy, how will you get close to him?"
Tian Lin stepped back, creating distance from the young master, "I do not know why you want me to get close to Second Steward?"
"Once you get close to Second Steward and gain his trust, I will naturally tell you. For now, I want you to immediately return to Lianshui Peak and apologize to Second Steward."
Unable to discern the secrets of the young master of the merchant family, Tian Lin felt somewhat disappointed.
However, he decided not to back down unconditionally anymore, rooted his feet and said to the young master:
"I can go and apologize to Second Steward, but first, please tell me the antidote for the Heartache Gu."
The young master laughed loudly, but after his laugh, he glared coldly at Tian Lin, "Do you know what you are saying? Do you think I am a fool?"
Tian Lin no longer continued with feigned civility, stating:
"If you think you can control me with the Heartache Gu, you are gravely mistaken—
In worldly society, as Huahua Lang, we think of today and not of tomorrow; I am afraid of nothing, at worst I will confess to Second Steward, tell him you and the thirteenth concubine are plotting misconduct, then we’ll all be doomed together."

"Doomed together? After traveling for years, struggling in the mines where so many died, and finally becoming an Outer Disciple of Yao Yue Sect."
The young master sneered, "Are you willing to be doomed together?"
"Believe it or not, young master, you can take a gamble."
Tian Lin continued, "I advise the young master to go back and discuss with the thirteenth concubine, best not to screw up over trivial gains."
The young merchant brushed his sleeve and left, heading directly to the Daoist Temple on the mountain once back at Lianshui Peak.
But the Daoist Child in the temple did not open the door for him, only telling him that the thirteenth concubine was bathing with Elder Liu, and asked the young master to wait at home.
He returned to his residence with a calm anger, sitting stiffly on a chair for half an hour before hearing the bell ring.
Only then did he hear the voice of the thirteenth concubine outside asking, "It’s so pitch-dark, why haven’t you lit the lamp?"
When the thirteenth concubine illuminated the candles in the room with the wind lantern, the young master’s gloomy face was revealed.
As she blew out the wind lantern and sat down across the young master, she smiled and asked:
"What’s wrong? Did that Outer Disciple named Tian Lin give you trouble?"
Slapping the table, the young master exclaimed angrily, "He is nearly two hundred years old, how can he still play around with young women as if they are his great-granddaughters?"
The thirteenth concubine immediately realized the cause of the young master’s anger, giggled and said:
"I am his concubine, and his willingness to spend time with me indicates my favor; you should be happy for me."
```
Young Master Merchant clenched his fists upon hearing this, his voice grew softer, yet he couldn’t hide his deep resentment.
"From Great Aunt, to my Aunt, and then to you, Sister—
Liu Renlong truly favors the women of our Merchant family, I am genuinely happy for Great Aunt, Aunt, and you, Sister!"
Although always smiling and welcoming, Shi San Niang finally became stern, stood up, and slapped him, staring at Young Master Merchant:
"Liu Renlong may indeed be lascivious, but it was he who allowed you to enter the Yao Yue Sect, become an Outer Disciple, and taught you the Qi Refining Technique—
This slap is to make you forever remember, he is not only your mentor but has also shown kindness to our Merchant family, and has never owed you anything."
Shi San Niang had no cultivation, so even if Young Master Merchant was truly deprived of all his cultivation, he couldn’t have avoided her slap.
But after receiving this slap, he actually felt much better.
He wiped his tears away and regained his composure, saying:
"I just feel that I have let down Great Aunt and Aunt, and even more so, you, Sister."
Shi San Niang smiled again, she used a handkerchief to completely wipe away the tears on Young Master Merchant’s face, saying:
"What does it matter who owes whom? Our Qi Refining family depends on the sect for our existence—
If the women of our Merchant family did not enter the sect as concubines or servants, would our Merchant family have its prosperity today? Otherwise, those in the mine would be our descendants."
After saying this, she asked Young Master Merchant: "I heard yesterday that you were going to find Tian Lin; I assume you have met him today?"
Young Master Merchant nodded, then recounted everything that had happened today, finally saying:
"I suspect he is trying to scare me; he and his sworn brother are different, he is not some worldly society man who is unafraid of death."
Shi San Niang didn’t know Da Liu and didn’t care about him, she only frowned and said: "What do you plan to do?"
Young Master Merchant sneered: "The poison of the Heartache Gu from our Merchant family is not easy to cure, what he doesn’t know is that I am the person least afraid of death."
Shi San Niang’s brow furrowed even more:
"You, as the heir of the Merchant family, plan to burn both yours and a Mine Slave’s fortunes? Forget it, just get rid of Tian Lin."
"Eliminating him would make it hard to find someone else to do my bidding," responded Young Master Merchant.
Shi San Niang’s tone already showed her dissatisfaction, she said:
"When he killed Xiao Yue, you should have thought of eliminating him then. Such a disobedient person; you want to use him to accomplish tasks, yet you have to worry about him messing things up."
She continued, "Moreover, what did you arrange for him to do with Second Steward Liu?"
Young Master Merchant, still somewhat unwilling, argued: "I haven’t done anything to Second Steward, nor have I any schemes. He wouldn’t dare to inform on me, and even if he did, it wouldn’t harm us."
"You may not have done anything! But if Second Steward takes a dislike to you and slanders you, what will you do—
With the current affairs of the Blood Sect, the sect has already decided to investigate internally. I don’t want our Merchant family to be needlessly suspected."
Shi San Niang said, "You don’t need to worry about this. I’ll take care of eliminating him."
"But you know that with the current situation of the Blood Sect, and now that he has become an Outer Disciple, isn’t it difficult for us to simply eliminate him?"
"Exactly because he has gained power and has become untouchable! Now that he has consumed your Heartache Gu and still dares to threaten you, what if he finds an antidote someday and turns against you?"
After thinking, Shi San Niang told Young Master Merchant:
"He hides in Dao Seeking Mountain and refuses to come down, but he must eat eventually. I’ll go to the kitchen later. You just stay inside your room these days and don’t go anywhere."
Shi San Niang descended the mountain, and the green-clothed woman from Dao Seeking Mountain also came down.
She saw Tian Lin practicing the Bright Sun Finger and couldn’t help but speak: "Is everyone from your Merchant family a cultivation genius?"
Tian Lin glanced at the food box in the hands of the green-clothed woman—
He didn’t know whether the green-clothed woman bringing food up the mountain was faster than a usual cultivation session.
But he didn’t ask, merely saying, "You’re talking about Young Master Merchant, right? Is his talent really that extraordinary?"
The green-clothed woman said, "I suspect he has been to the second-tier platform, but I also heard this from Brother Zhong. I’m not too clear on the specifics—"
