“This is everyone’s effort. It’s not mine alone.” Yun Qingrou looked at Yun Lintian with a gentle smile. “It’s yours too. You have made a huge contribution to this. Don’t belittle yourself.”
A wry smile appeared on Yun Lintian’s face. “I really cannot hide anything from you.”
“Don’t forget that I’ve watched you grow up.” Yun Qingrou laughed slightly and led Yun Lintian into the treasury.
Upon entering the treasury, Yun Lintian was almost blinded by a dazzling array of treasures. With the nearly unlimited resources in the Land of Beyond Heaven, it was normal for the treasury to quickly fill up.
“These pills and equipment were made by our disciples. Only the best grade ones are kept here.” Yun Qingrou explained and walked toward a seven-story shelf at the end of the room. She casually picked up several pill bottles and handed them to Yun Lintian. “This should be enough.”
Yun Lintian stored the bottles away and looked around briefly. “They’ve already reached such a high level?” He was surprised because most of the treasures here were at least at Heaven rank. 𝘦𝘯.𝘰𝘳𝘨
Usually, it would take several tens of years for one to reach this level. This showed the disciples’ progress in alchemy and forging arts was unbelievably fast.
“The environment here is suitable for learning. Also, don’t forget that the profound arts they are learning are not ordinary.” Yun Qingrou explained.
Yun Lintian nodded his head in an understanding manner. He admitted that he was ignorant of this matter, as he hadn’t paid much attention to everyone’s progress for a long time now.
“What’s your plan? Don’t take a risk, alright?” Yun Qingrou asked. After seeing the injured disciples, she was quite worried about Yun Lintian’s safety.
Yun Lintian’s heart warmed when he saw her worried expression. He gave a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry. I will be the first to run if something happens.” He paused for a moment and continued. “From Huoyun Yurou’s words, I need the so-called Misty Token to enter the forest. Right now, the Sky Qilin Clan is planning to hold a competition between the younger generations of each clan. Heh, it’s more like they want to humiliate the Fire Cloud Rat Clan and others.”
“A competition?” Yun Qingrou frowned slightly upon hearing this. “Be careful out there. There may be a conspiracy behind this.”
“Mhm!” Yun Lintian responded.
After exchanging a few more words with Yun Qingrou, Yun Lintian left the Land of Beyond Heaven and returned to the hut. He quickly went out and began to give necessities, pills, and equipment to the clansmen.
All the clansmen were shocked and quickly rejected Yun Lintian’s kindness, but under Yun Lintian’s persuasion, they accepted everything in the end.
Shortly after Yun Lintian gave everything away, Huoyun Zhu appeared in the residential area and looked at the scene in surprise. She approached Yun Lintian and asked. “Little Friend Yun, you don’t have to do this at all.”
Yun Lintian looked at her and replied with a smile. “Since Matriarch decided to follow me, it’s my responsibility to take care of everyone. Senior doesn’t have to worry about this. These items are useless to me. It’s better to use it to improve everyone’s living standard. They’ve suffered for a long time.”
Huoyun Zhu glanced at the items in those clansmen’s hands with a complicated feeling. She was aware of how precious these things were. For example, the beddings were actually made of Snow Wind Silkworm’s silks. If it was placed on the outside, one would need at least a hundred thousand middle-grade Profound Stone to buy it. And those pills were also not ordinary at all. However, Yun Lintian actually gave them away for free!
“Let’s go, Senior. I have something to talk about with Matriarch.” Yun Lintian didn’t want to linger on this topic further.
“Alright. Follow me.” Huoyun Zhu waved her hand and brought Yun Lintian to the hall.
At this moment, Huoyun Yurou was calmly meditating beside the altar. Her eyes slowly opened upon perceiving Yun Lintian and Huoyun Zhu’s aura.
“What’s the matter?” Huoyun Yurou asked softly.
Yun Lintian didn’t waste his time and went straight to the topic. “Senior, I have a way to let you break through.”
His words immediately startled both Huoyun Yurou and Huoyun Zhu.
“W-what did you say? You can make Matriarch break through?” Huoyun Zhu stammered in shock.
Huoyun Yurou also stared at Yun Lintian, waiting for his explanation.
Yun Lintian took out a pile of best grade Profound Stones, bottles of Profound Spiritual Liquid, and a bucket of Soul Liquid and said. “I believe this should be enough for Senior to make a breakthrough.”
Huoyun Yurou and Huoyun Zhu were stunned to the point their minds went blank for a while. Although the Fire Cloud Rat Clan was prosperous in the past, they could not bring out these items casually.
“Y-you… Who on earth are you?” Huoyun Zhu couldn’t help saying this.
“I’m just an ordinary human.” Yun Lintian replied casually. He looked at Huoyun Yurou and asked further. “Is it enough, Senior?”
Huoyun Yurou took a deep breath and asked. “Are you sure you want to give these things to me?”
“Senior, you can think of it as an investment. The stronger you are, the higher the chance of me surviving under the enemy’s siege.” Yun Lintian said with a smile.
Huoyun Yurou stared at Yun Lintian for a long while and nodded. “Good.” She waved her hand, and all the items flew toward her.
Yun Lintian suddenly said. “Also, Senior. Linlin and I can help you go through the Heaven Tribulation.”
Huoyun Yurou’s eyes flashed with splendor. She was worried about this matter in her heart. Hearing this, all the worries vanished completely. “Thank you.”
Yun Lintian turned to Huoyun Zhu and took out a few items before handing them to her. “This is for you, Senior.”
Huoyun Zhu was already numb to Yun Lintian’s wealth. She didn’t hesitate to take them and replied. “Thank you.”
Yun Lintian nodded with a smile and turned to Huoyun Yurou. “Shall we start it now, Senior?”
A long-lost ambition appeared in the depth of Huoyun Yurou’s eyes as she responded. “Yes.”
