Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

Chapter 410: Chapter 110 Settling Lin Jue

After the successful bid, two maids immediately came to the auction stage and pushed the cage down.

At this time, the auction was still ongoing.

The next ‘lot’ was another female cultivator.

And she was a cultivator with a special physique, extremely beautiful at that.

Following the beautiful host’s stirring speech, the atmosphere in the venue once again became agitated.

Yet, Lin Jing no longer paid attention to these matters.

He was just waiting for the maids to bring Lin Jue over so he could leave.

It wasn’t long.

Before two maids arrived with a pale-faced Lin Jue and approached Lin Jing.

Lin Jing then took out the Spirit Stones he had prepared in advance and handed them to one of the maids.

After the maid had counted the Spirit Stones and confirmed the amount was correct, she took out a Token and handed it to Lin Jing.

After Lin Jing received the Token, the maid explained how to use it to him before leaving.

The use of this Token was the same as the one that controlled Ye Yun; destroying it would completely restore Lin Jue’s freedom.

After the two maids left, Lin Jing did not linger. He didn’t say a word but directly took Lin Jue and left the auction venue.

Upon exiting the auction venue, Lin Jing immediately said to Lin Jue:

“Let’s go, we are heading back…”

“I have already rescued Ye Yun, and he’s waiting for you at the inn.”

“After we get back, I’ll take you both and leave.”

Lin Jing’s words took Lin Jue, who was in despair, by surprise.

Then looking at Lin Jing with a puzzled face.

Lin Jing’s voice sounded very familiar to him.

But he didn’t dare to be certain.

Thereupon, Lin Jue cautiously asked:

“Are you… ”

“Senior…?”

Lin Jing nodded gently and then said:

“Knowing is enough, now is not the time to make a commotion.”

“Let’s talk after I get you guys out of here.”

Lin Jue was extremely excited, with tears involuntarily sliding down from his eyes.

Lin Jue choked up as he said:

“Yes…”

“Senior…”

This period could be considered the darkest moment in his life; how many times he had hoped for someone to save him.

As the auction began, Lin Jue’s heart had sunk; he held no more expectations.

Especially when at the auction, being treated as a ‘lot’ and bid on by others, he fell into a helpless despair.

Yet unexpectedly, just when he thought everything was settled and his fate had hit rock bottom, there appeared a turning point,

And the person who bid on him turned out to be the senior who had once helped him…

In that instant, from darkness to light,

Lin Jue’s heart revived, and he couldn’t help letting his tears fall.

Seeing this, Lin Jing sighed and comforted:

“Alright…”

“Now that I’m here, there’s nothing to worry about.”

Lin Jue, with tears in his eyes, nodded profoundly.

Afterward.

Lin Jing took Lin Jue and left the trading market.

In a short while, the two returned to the inn.

Upon seeing Lin Jue, Ye Yun immediately became excited and hurried over.

He first inspected Lin Jue up and down, only after seeing no injuries did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, Ye Yun said:

“You… you’re alright?”

Lin Jue looked at his good friend and shook his head:

“All good, thanks to the senior…”

“And you?”

Ye Yun turned to Lin Jing and said:

“Thanks to the senior, I’m fine…”

Then the two stared at each other…

This experience could be considered a trial or perhaps an opportunity for growth for both of them.

……

It was at this moment that Lin Jing interrupted them, saying:

“We should leave now.”

The two looked up, turned to Lin Jing, and asked:

“Senior…”

“Are we in danger now?”

Lin Jing then spoke:

“I have something to do later. For now, we should leave and I’ll take you to a safe place. Once I’ve taken care of my business, I’ll come back for you.”

After hearing this, the two nodded.

Then.

Lin Jing led the two out, checked out of the inn, and left.

After leaving the inn, the trio didn’t linger and directly departed from Black Xing Island.

Not long after leaving Black Xing Island and taking advantage of a moment when no one was around, Lin Jing immediately called forth the Shadow Escape Flying Boat.

Seeing the Shadow Escape Flying Boat, both Lin Jue and Ye Yun were astounded.

“Senior, you actually possess a flying boat…”

Lin Jing nodded then directly said:

“Get on first, we’ll talk about the rest later.”

The two nodded as well and followed Lin Jing aboard the flying boat.

After entering the flying boat, Lin Jing went straight to the cockpit and embedded a Superior Grade Spirit Stone into the slot for Spirit Stones.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Jing activated it.

The Shadow Escape Flying Boat “swooshed” and shot out.

At that moment.

Aboard the flying boat, Lin Jue and Ye Yun, came over to Lin Jing, bowed, and said:

“Thank you, Senior, for saving our lives.”

Lin Jing, at that moment, was partly using his Divine Sense to control the flying boat, speedily soaring over the sea.

Meanwhile, he observed the two of them.

Lin Jing then spoke:

“Lin Jue, it’s just you left in your family now, isn’t it?”

Hearing this, Lin Jue seemed to recall something sad, his eyes downcast, revealing a hint of sorrow in his expression.

“Yes, Senior…”

“Since grandfather passed away, I’ve been on my own.”

Lin Jing nodded and then turned to look at Ye Yun:

“What about you?”

“Do you have any relatives left in Bihai City?”

Ye Yun replied:

“Replying to Senior…”

“My situation is quite similar to Lin Jue’s.”

“Several years ago, after my parents left for a trip, they never returned, leaving me alone.”

Lin Jing immediately fell silent.

After pondering for a while, Lin Jing asked the two:

“I own a small island in the Thousand Islands Domain, would you two be willing to follow me?”

“If you are willing, I will take you to the island, if not, I can also return you to Bihai City.”

Upon hearing this, they turned to look at each other and then nodded in unison:

“Senior, we are willing.”

Lin Jing nodded slightly and said:

“Good…”

“Then from now on, you will follow me.”

Both of them, visibly excited, bowed hastily and thanked Lin Jing:

“Thank you, Senior…”

…

…

The Shadow Escape Flying Boat was incredibly fast. In less than four hours, Lin Jing arrived at the destination he had long decided upon.

It was the uninhabited small island where he had encountered Lu Youjiu during the auction of Yan Wanfei.

This island was situated between Black Xing Island and the Thousand Islands Domain, making it an ideal place to temporarily settle the two.

Because Lin Jing was soon to fight a major battle, it was not suitable to take them with him.

Nor was it fitting to continue keeping them on Black Xing Island.

So temporarily setting them up here was just right.

After settling Lin Jue and Ye Yun on the uninhabited island, Lin Jing left them with some instructions. He then boarded the Shadow Escape Flying Boat and flew back towards Black Xing Island.

This time.

He had to return to Black Xing Island before the auction ended.

Then, find a way to track down that Young Gang Leader of the Black Shark Gang.

In less than four hours, Lin Jing returned to Black Shark Island.

And, before re-entering Black Shark Island, Lin Jing once again activated the Changyun Hidden Technique to alter his appearance.

This time, he transformed into a pale, frail-looking man.

When Lin Jing got back to the trading market, the auction was still not over.

Then, with this new identity, Lin Jing paid the Spirit Stones again to enter the auction house.

Fortunately, the auction house had no entry restrictions, one could enter as long as they paid the Spirit Stones.

After entering, Lin Jing discovered that the auction house was as crowded as before. Luckily, there were still some empty seats at the very back of the auction hall.

Lin Jing directly found an empty spot in the back corner and sat down.

The auction was nearing its end, and the atmosphere had reached its climax.

Right now, the auction stage presented a girl with a special constitution, whose bidding price had been raised to one million Medium Grade Spirit Stones.

This girl’s constitution was extremely rare. If a cultivator dual-cultivated with her, it could increase their cultivation speed.

That’s why the bidding price for this girl was so high and why the auction house was in such a frenzy.

Moreover, not only the people in the auction hall, but even the cultivators sitting in the private boxes on the second floor had joined in the bidding.

Thus, the price for the girl was raised step by step until it finally reached an astonishing two million.

This price of two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones was called out by someone from the fifth box upstairs.

After the two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones bid was announced, the hall fell silent for a moment.

Clearly, this price had exceeded the limit many people could afford.

The auctioneer on stage then began to entice the crowd:

“The patron in box five has bid two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones, is there a higher bid?”

“This ‘lot’ is something you might not encounter even once in a hundred years. If you miss this chance, there won’t be another. Those who desire it should bid quickly…”

After waiting for a moment and seeing that no one else was bidding, the beautiful auctioneer began the countdown.

“Two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going once…”

…

“Two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going twice…”

The beautiful auctioneer scanned the room, noticing the total silence in the auction hall, probably no one would offer a higher price.

So.

She was just about to speak the final words…

But at that moment.

A voice suddenly rang out from another luxurious box:

“I bid two million two hundred thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”

As this voice fell, everyone in the auction hall gasped in shock.

The additional twenty thousand was thrown out as though it was nothing.

However, Lin Jing recognized the voice; it was indeed that of the Young Gang Leader of the Black Shark Gang.

Then, the auctioneer on stage looked towards the box on the second floor and eagerly said:

“Box one bids two million two hundred thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, is there any higher bid?”

But this time, no one else started to bid.

Even the person from box five, who had bid two million Medium Grade Spirit Stones, fell silent.

Clearly, two million two hundred thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones had surpassed his limit.
