Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space-Chapter 422 - 122: Turns Out It’s Not a Younger Brother, It’s a Younger Sister
Chapter 422: Chapter 122: Turns Out It’s Not a Younger Brother, It’s a Younger Sister
Upon hearing this, Yue Qi’s mother was momentarily stunned, then nodded, saying,
“I understand, Island Master…”
Lin Jing nodded in return and briefed Yue Qi’s mother before preparing to leave.
But at that moment, he suddenly remembered something he had seemingly forgotten to mention.
So he turned around and said to Yue Qi’s mother,
“Qi’s mother, I need a few more courtyards built near the tops of the mountains next to the Alchemy Room. Arrange it for me…”
Yue Qi’s mother nodded, replying,
“Certainly, Island Master…”
“I will arrange it immediately.”
Lin Jing nodded once more, then departed.
……
In the following period, under Yue Qi’s mother’s arrangement, construction began on small courtyards atop the nearby mountains.
By this time, Li Qingqing and Lin Jue had already started cultivating the Lin family’s Alchemy Dao.
Even Ye Yun had received the Seven Refinement Body Forging Technique gifted by Lin Jing, and he had already cultivated it to the first level.
In the entire northern part of Li Yan Island, only Han Bingyan was still the same as before.
……
Time flashed by, and over a month passed.
The small courtyards on the other mountaintops were all built, and Li Qingqing, along with Lin Jue and the others, would move into the new courtyards starting tomorrow.
Thus, on the evening before this day,
Lin Jing summoned Han Bingyan, intending to have a private talk with her.
Since rescuing Han Bingyan, Lin Jing had barely spoken with her and only knew that she was not fond of talking and was very shy.
Beyond that, including details about her family and her Sect, Lin Jing knew nothing at all.
Therefore, at this time today, Lin Jing decided to inquire in detail.
When Lin Jing called Han Bingyan into the room alone, she was visibly uneasy, not even daring to raise her head.
Seeing Han Bingyan like this, Lin Jing could only shake his head, puzzled by where such a nature came from.
It felt like dealing with a child, naive to the ways of the world and utterly shy.
But the questions that needed to be asked still had to be asked…
Thus, Lin Jing took the initiative to speak,
“There’s no need to be so nervous. I called you here just to ask you some things.”
Han Bingyan, with her head lowered, replied softly,
“What would senior like to ask?”
Lin Jing then proceeded to ask,
“Han Bingyan, if I remember correctly, you once mentioned that you are a disciple of the Ice God Palace, right? Do you know where your Sect, the Ice God Palace, is located?”
“And do they know about you falling into the hands of the Black Shark Gang?”
After hearing this, Han Bingyan finally lifted her head slightly and said,
“Senior…”
“Actually, I don’t know where the Ice God Palace is, either.”
Lin Jing was puzzled by Han Bingyan’s response and asked again,
“You don’t know either?”
Han Bingyan nodded lightly and said,
“Actually, like senior, I was originally from the Nanming Domain.”
“But when I was very young, I encountered my master, who noticed my exceptional aptitude and said she wanted to take me to cultivate immortality, so she took me away…”
“It was from what my master told me that I knew our Sect was called the Ice God Palace.”
Lin Jing continued to ask,
“Since you were taken in by your master as a child, haven’t you returned to the Ice God Palace at all during this time?”
Han Bingyan shook her head and said,
“After accepting me, my master brought me to the Demonic Monster Sea, and we’ve been cultivating on an island whose name I don’t even know until now.”
“It was only recently, I think an enemy of my master found us, and the two of them began to fight.”
“To avoid me getting hurt by mistake, my master sent me away. Shortly after I was transmitted out, I ran into the people from the Black Shark Gang…”
After listening, Lin Jing frowned slightly and asked again,
“You haven’t been to the Ice God Palace up to now, so you don’t know its location, is that right?”
Han Bingyan thought for a moment and then responded,
“My master did mention a bit, she said our Sect, the Ice God Palace, is very powerful and that it’s located somewhere within the Demonic Monster Sea, with many people knowing of it.”
Lin Jing was speechless upon hearing this…
The entire Demonic Monster Sea, whose expanse was unfathomable.
A Sect within the Demonic Monster Sea was, in truth, like finding a needle in a haystack.
Moreover, her master had claimed that their Ice God Palace was very powerful and well-known, which Lin Jing frankly didn’t believe.
Lin Jing had been venturing in the Demonic Monster Sea for such a long time.
He had never heard of any Ice God Palace, and not just Lin Jing, even when he had asked Li Tangyu before, he had said he had never heard of it.
However…
For someone from a Sect, to exaggerate the prowess of their own Sect was something Lin Jing could understand.
After all, Han Bingyan herself had great talent and additionally, a special body constitution; any Sect that got her would certainly not want to let her slip away.
Thus, Lin Jing could quite understand her master’s behavior.
Afterward,
Lin Jing looked at Han Bingyan and continued to ask,
“By the way, did your master ever tell you what kind of body constitution you actually have?”
Han Bingyan nodded and said,
“My master told me that my constitution seems to be called the Extreme Yin Ice Spiritual Body, similar to the first ancestral master of the Ice God Palace. That’s why I am most suitable for cultivating the Ice God Palace’s cultivation techniques.”
Lin Jing nodded and said,
“So that’s the case…”
After thinking for a while, Lin Jing then told Han Bingyan,
“Since your master hasn’t come back for now, you can stay here for the time being. If you need anything, just tell me…”
Han Bingyan nodded and replied,
“Thank you, senior…”
Lin Jing waved his hand, saying,
“It’s nothing…”
Then, Lin Jing asked again,
“By the way, what is your master’s name, and what does she look like? I’ll see if I can keep an eye out and perhaps help you find her.”
After a moment’s thought, Han Bingyan said,
“I don’t know what my master’s name is either. As for what she looks like…”
Han Bingyan tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then said,
“She is very beautiful…”
Lin Jing waited for a moment, and, seeing that Han Bingyan did not continue, he asked,
“Is that it? Nothing else?”
Han Bingyan nodded her head very seriously and said,
“Mm…”
“My master, I really don’t know how to describe it, just that she is very beautiful, really beautiful…”
Lin Jing was speechless again…
With such scant information, even if Lin Jing wanted to search, he had nowhere to start…
A moment later, Han Bingyan spoke again and said,
“However…”
“Before my master sent me away, she said she left a brand on my body, telling me that after she dealt with her enemies, she would come back to find me.”
“Alright…” Lin Jing said, feeling helpless:
“It looks like we can only wait until your master is done with her enemies and comes looking for you.”
This conversation with Han Bingyan had yielded almost no useful information for Lin Jing.
There was nothing to be done at present.
The Black Shark Gang was definitely still searching for their whereabouts.
He certainly couldn’t let Han Bingyan leave now.
They could only wait to deal with the Black Shark Gang before considering other matters.
Speaking of which, Lin Jing hadn’t gone out either during this time.
He had only occasionally heard that the Black Shark Gang seemed to be making big moves lately, seemingly in search of them.
However, Lin Jing was unaware of the specifics.
It seemed that he needed to find some time to go out and gather detailed information about the Black Shark Gang…
Afterward, Lin Jing let Han Bingyan go.
Just as Han Bingyan was pushing the door open, someone happened to be walking by outside.
The person coming by was Lin Jing’s new younger brother, Lin Jue.
When Lin Jue saw Han Bingyan, he was first surprised, then he greeted her.
However, Han Bingyan was obviously not very comfortable.
After responding with a word, she left with her face blushing and her head lowered.
Seeing Han Bingyan’s demeanor, Lin Jue watched her retreating figure, seemingly thoughtful…
When he turned his head back, his gaze towards Lin Jing suddenly took on a strange scrutinizing quality.
Seeing that look in Lin Jue’s eyes, how could Lin Jing not understand what Lin Jue was implying? So he quickly said,
“Put away that look, you’re thinking too much…”
Perhaps because of Lin Jing’s presence, Lin Jue felt a sense of support and had become noticeably more cheerful in recent days compared to before.
Especially in front of Lin Jing, he seemed lively and cheerful, no longer always cautious and frightened of making any mistakes like before.
Lin Jing naturally welcomed this change in Lin Jue.
……
Having seen Han Bingyan leave, Lin Jue crossed the threshold and entered the room.
Lin Jing asked,
“Lin Jue, do you have something to discuss this time coming here?”
Lin Jue said,
“Brother…”
“I do have a matter to discuss with you.”
After speaking, Lin Jue glanced outside to make sure Han Bingyan had truly left, then quickly shut the door and said to Lin Jing,
“Brother…”
“Can you use your spiritual power to seal the room, because what I’m going to talk about next is quite important.”
Lin Jing heard this and nodded.
Then he directly activated his spiritual power, enveloping the entire room in it.
After doing all of this, Lin Jing spoke again and said,
“Okay, it’s as you wished. Now no one can eavesdrop on our conversation. Tell me, what’s the matter?”
Lin Jue then looked seriously at Lin Jing and said,
“Brother…”
“Actually, I am a girl…”
Lin Jing, upon hearing these words, was first taken aback, and then he turned his head, looked at Lin Jue carefully, but did not notice anything unusual.
Then, with a skeptical gaze, Lin Jing looked at Lin Jue and asked,
“You’re saying, you are a girl?”
Lin Jue nodded and then said,
“There’s no need to check. Not only you, brother, but also the disguise on my body, very few can detect it.”
“I’ll show you…”
Having said that, Lin Jue formed hand seals and then lightly moved her lips, chanting an incantation.
In this way, a hint of purple light slowly emerged on Lin Jue’s forehead.
As Lin Jue continued her incantation, the purple light grew stronger and stronger.
At that moment, Lin Jue stopped chanting.
She then activated her spiritual power to form a blade and made a cut on her palm.
Then, Lin Jue pressed the wound against her forehead and slid it down.
Lin Jue’s forehead was immediately stained red with blood, but this blood did not drip down; instead, it was slowly absorbed into her skin.
As Lin Jue’s blood was absorbed, the purple glow became brighter until it completely enveloped her.
At this point, even Lin Jing couldn’t see what was happening inside.
After a while, the purple glow gradually faded.
Lin Jing could see Lin Jue again.
At this time, the former Lin Jue was long gone, replaced by a graceful young girl.
The girl had large, spirited eyes, and beneath those animated eyes, a fine, delicate nose slightly turned up, complemented by her smiling lips and jade teeth.
She was the image of a lively and lovely beauty.
Now looking at Lin Jue,
Lin Jing reacted with disbelief and asked,
“Is this, your true appearance?”
To which Lin Jue, smiling, said,
“Brother…”
“What do you think, you didn’t realize before that I wasn’t your brother but your sister, did you?”
