Chapter 415 -245 Disrespectful Elder Lin Xingrong_1
Qin Xi had been in closed-door cultivation for nearly two years and had not gone to the deeper areas of the Hengyang Mountain Range, let alone the more distant Qianchuan Market.

As such, she hardly had access to any news from the Cultivation World, or else she might have been able to learn about the situations in other regions.
At that moment, Lin Tianmingâs expression remained unchanged, and he immediately asked, âFairy Qin still has injuries, may I know how severe they are? What are your plans for the future?â
Upon hearing Lin Tianmingâs caring words, Qin Xiâs face turned slightly red, seeming somewhat reserved.
âThank you for your concern, Lin,â she replied, âmy injuries are not a hindrance. Iâve only consumed a great deal of Spiritual Power, and with a short period of closed-door cultivation, I should be able to recover as usual!â
After saying this, Qin Xi changed the subject, âLin, may I inquire about the situation with the demonic beast tides in the Luoyun Mountain Range?â
...
Hearing this question, Lin Tianming felt puzzled, but after thinking it through, he was able to deduce her intention.
The demonic beast tides hadnât subsided yet and seemed far from over. With her current injuries, the priority must be to find a safe place to engage in closed-door cultivation.
After all, it was perilously dangerous to be alone outside. With her current level of cultivation, if she encountered a group of Second Order Demonic Beasts, she could very well be in danger of falling.
Considering this, Lin Tianming thought about recruiting Qin Xi. If she was willing, she could stay at Golden Horn Mountain to cultivate and incidentally help defend against the demonic beast tide.
With a Foundation Establishment Cultivator at Golden Horn Mountain Clan Territory, safety would be more assured, and it would also make her owe another favor, reaping both reputation and benefits.
Such a move would be mutually beneficial for both parties.
With this in mind, he spoke warmly and earnestly.
âFairy Qin, with the demonic beasts running rampant, everyone in the Wei Kingdomâs mountain ranges is in danger. Itâs too risky for you to be outside alone. Why not come with me back to Golden Horn Mountain? We have two fellows of the Foundation Establishment Stage there to defend the place. You can cultivate in peace there, and when the beast tide passes, you are free to leave whenever you like,â he said.
After finishing his invitation, Lin Tianming looked at Qin Xi with an expectant expression.
And this sincere invitation from Lin Tianming did not seem false, which rather moved Qin Xi.
Given her current predicament, her intermediate Foundation Establishment Level Two cultivation meant that staying alone outside was indeed dangerous; joining some factionâs territory or market was a good choice.
However, under the current circumstances, the markets or families of Luoyun Mountain were not the best choice since the overall strength of the forces there was not very robust, and whether they could safely weather the beast tide was questionable.
Normally, the Cultivation World of Huangyang Kingdom or even the stronger and larger Qianchuan Market would be more suitable for her.
But under special circumstances, with her injuries and her Spiritual Power drained, her strength was not at its peak, and she couldnât travel too far.
Moreover, to go to Qianchuan Market, she would inevitably have to pass through the border of Hengyang and Luoyang Mountain Ranges, and even a small part of Chen Clanâs territory.
If she was not careful and her tracks were discovered, it would be like a lamb walking into the mouth of a tiger, with no possibility of escape.
She could either take a detour to Qianchuan Market or go directly south to the more powerful Huangyang Country Cultivation World, or accept Lin Tianmingâs invitation, enter Lin Familyâs territory to help resist the beast tide, and conveniently engage in cultivation.
At this moment, Qin Xi hesitated, unsure of which option to choose.
Seeing Qin Xiâs prolonged silence, Lin Tianming beside her was quite patient and did not urge her.
After a while, Qin Xi, who had been thinking for a long time, made up her mind and decided to accept Lin Tianmingâs invitation.
The reasons she accepted Lin Tianmingâs invitation were key factors that influenced her decision.
Firstly, the reputation of the Lin Family had been circulating in the Cultivation World for a long time. Although it was just a Foundation Establishing Family that lived in seclusion, its thunderous action that annihilated the Jin Family twenty years ago shook the major powers of the southern Wei Kingdom.
Since then, the Lin Family emerged suddenly, moving into Qianchuan Market shortly thereafter, becoming the focal point of the southern Wei Kingdomâs powers, enjoying the limelight.
Such a dark horse family, with its strength ranking high among many Foundation Establishing Families, had a great likelihood of safely enduring the beast tide.
Secondly, the beast tidesâ attacks were unpredictable, with danger everywhere. Unable to travel far, she couldnât directly cross the Hengyang Mountain Range to reach Qianchuan Market, nor could she go to the more distant Huangyang Country Cultivation World.
Thirdly, Lin Tianming gave her an unusual feeling; an instinct told her he bore no malice or ulterior motives, and his presence felt quite pure.
This unique sensation existed from their first meeting, and upon meeting again, the strange feeling persisted, which was somewhat bizarre.
Fourth and most importantly, Lin Tianming had shown her kindness. No matter what his intentions, his proactive invitation was exceedingly generous.
Being someone who returned favors, and since the Lin Family generally had a good reputation, it was unlikely they would do anything excessive.
In such a situation, accepting Lin Tianmingâs invitation was also a gesture; it not only acknowledged his kindness but also contributed a modest effort to the Lin Familyâs cause. Additionally, it could help establish good relations with the Lin Family, so if the Chen Clan pursued her in the future, she could seek refuge from a willing protector.
Resolved, Qin Xi spoke softly, âLin has shown me kindness, but with my injuries and moderate strength, I am touched that you think highly of a minor woman like myself.â
âFurthermore, being a person of Luoyun Mountain, I am willing to accept your invitation to resist the demonic beast attacks for the sake of Luoyun Mountain Range, to offer a thin strand of my humble strength!â
