In addition to this Spirit Crystal payment, I, Liu Su Dong, owe you another favour, in the future, if you are in trouble, just look for me, and within my power, I will help you once.”Liusu Dong said.
When Lin Yun heard this, his heart was immediately delighted.
As the number one family in Dongtan County, and Liusu Dong was the supreme family head of the Liusu Family, a favour from him was still worth a lot.
Lin Yun was now hanging out in this world with no one to turn to, no background, and was very powerless when he encountered trouble many times, and the benefits of having a favour like this went without saying.
At least in Dongtan County, Lin Yun would have this layer of protection if he encountered any more big trouble.
“Then, thank you, Senior Quicksilver.”Lin Yun clasped his fists.
This account of favours was clearly an unexpected gain.
“By the way Senior Quicksilver, I do have a small request, I wonder if Senior can help.”Lin Yun said.
“What request, just say it.”Elder Liu Su Dong said bashfully.
“The Hundred Flower House is a business under the Liusu family, I want senior Liusu to help me to make the head honcho in the Hundred Flower House, Yu Ying, regain her freedom.”Lin Yun said.
“Just like that? It’s simply something too small to be true, don’t worry, it’s a matter of my word.”Liu Su Dong readily agreed.
“Senior, this matter shouldn’t count as that favour that was just promised to me, right?”Lin Yun smiled.
“Haha, of course it doesn’t count, this is a complete sesame seed, my favours from Liu Su Dong, would they be so worthless?”Elder Liu Su Dong laughed.
To someone like Liu Su Dong, he was pursuing a higher realm, and this kind of small matter was indeed too small and insignificant.
Even a business like the Hundred Flower House was a tiny one amongst the large number of businesses of the Liusu family, he didn’t put it in his eyes at all, these were all taken care of by the people in the family who specialised in business.
However, to Lin Yun, this was something that would be difficult to accomplish, without a nod from Liusu Dong, it would be as difficult as heaven if Lin Yun wanted Yu Ying to regain her freedom.
“Elder Liu Su, then I’ll go back and continue drinking first.”Lin Yun clasped his fists.
“Go.”Elder Quicksilver, smiled and nodded.
After Lin Yun left, Quicksilver Rhyme walked out from within the great hall.
“Grandpa, how was it? Did he say anything?”Quicksilver Rhyme opened his mouth to ask.
“He said that he was able to escape from the Green Winged Giant Snake because of luck.”Liu Su Dong smiled and shook his head.
“Luck? How is this possible, under the Green Winged Giant Serpent’s fury, without absolute skill, how could he have escaped.”Liu Su Yun said.
“He doesn’t go into details, naturally he doesn’t want to say, it’s normal for cultivators to have a bit of secrets.”
Liu Su Dong looked at the starry night sky and continued, “However, one thing is certain, this son was able to escape from the hands of the Green Winged Giant Serpent, he definitely possesses great ability, this son is very uncomplicated! And as far as I know, he’s only twenty-seven years old, he’s a good seedling, we, the Quicksilver Clan, can befriend him, it’s an investment.”
Befriending this kind of person with good potential was a risky investment, if the other party achieved something in the future, they would definitely benefit.
“Only twenty-seven years old? So young!”Quicksilver Rhyme was stunned.
“That’s right, you personally go and make a run tomorrow to restore freedom to what’s the head girl of the Hundred Flower House, Yu Ying.”Liu Su Dong commanded.
“Grandpa, this is a request made by …… that brat?”Quicksilver Rhyme said in surprise.
“Right.”Elder Liu Su Dong nodded his head.
“It seems that he is nothing more than that, he will still be defeated by beauty, I heard that he fell out with the young master of the Liu family, Liu Chuan, because of this woman, since ancient times, red faces have many scourges.”Liu Su Yun shook his head.
“Haha, there is another saying, since ancient times, heroes have many woes.”Elder Liu Su Dong laughed.
……
Banquet Hall.
Lin Yun had just walked in when he ran into Mo Qing heading out.
“Fellow Daoist Mo Qing, what are you doing?”Lin Yun looked at her.
“Since the mission has been completed and the reward has arrived, it’s time for me to leave Dongtan County.”Mo Qing said.
Mo Qing wasn’t originally a local of East Tan County, she was invited by Elder Liu Su, at great expense, from elsewhere, just because she held the fledgling Water Upanishad.
“Fellow Daoist Mo Qing, there’s a pretty large scale auction in East Tan County tomorrow, won’t you stay and take a look? Besides, it’s getting late now.”Lin Yun said.
“No, I have other things.”Mo Qing shook his head.
Immediately after, Mo Qing clasped his fists, “Fellow Daoist Lin Yun, I really thank you for this mission, I’ve seldom seen someone of your age as valiant and bold as you, it was a pleasure to work with you, I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again in the future, the jianghu is a long way away, see you again if you have the chance.”
“Fellow Daoist Mo Qing, see you again sometime.”Lin Yun also clasped his fists.
After Mo Qing said his goodbyes, he left the great hall straight away and disappeared into the night.
Lin Yun returned to his seat and glanced at Ren Qi, who was not far away, he was royally drunk and was clearly still in the midst of the grief of his old soft-shelled turtle leaving him.
Lin Yun couldn’t help but shake his head, the old soft-shelled turtle’s sacrifice, Lin Yun’s heart wasn’t feeling good either, he only hoped that this Ren Qi, could come to his senses after this.
The banquet lasted until midnight before it ended, Liusu Dong left Lin Yun to spend the night in the mansion, which was politely refused by Lin Yun.
After returning to the inn.
Lin Yun summoned the four metal creatures out.
Today, Lin Yun was able to escape from death, and it was also crucial that the four metals carried that fatal blow for Lin Yun.
“See you, master.”The four metal creatures saluted.
“How are your injuries?”Lin Yun asked with concern.
“Master don’t worry, it’s just a little damage, it’s not a problem, it’s just that a little damage like this can be very troublesome if it accumulates.”The metal creature ‘Tian’ said.
Lin Yun nodded indistinctly, it was a desperate move to let them resist the damage today, if they didn’t, Lin Yun would definitely die.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yun took them back into his storage space before entering a state of cultivation, continuing to use the ‘Magma Essence Spirit’ and extracting his divine sense.
……
Dong Tan Lake, inside the palace at the bottom of the lake.
The Green Winged Giant Snake, coiled at the top of the palace in front of him, he looked gloomy.
“Golden Scaled Crocodile, you waste! I asked you to bring people to guard an Origin Water Lotus, but you couldn’t even do it!”The Green Winged Giant Serpent angrily reprimanded.
“Wing Emperor, it’s …… my subordinate who did an unfavourable job, please chastise Wing Emperor.”The Golden Scaled Crocodile below hastily admitted his mistake.
“Have you inquired about that brat’s news?”The Green Winged Giant Serpent inquired in a cold voice.
If Lin Yun hadn’t wasted too much of its time today, it could have easily exterminated those people and reclaimed the Origin Water Lotus.
A supreme treasure like the Origin Water Lotus was also extremely useful to him, and might even help it rush to a new realm.
How could he not be angry when such a supreme treasure was taken away, how could he swallow this bad breath?
“Reporting to the Winged Emperor, I’ve already inquired, according to the intelligence, this son is called Lin Yun, he might be a member of some super family, hiding his identity and coming out to practice, however, this is just speculation, there are very few intelligence records about him, and he’s recently had a conflict with the first son of the Liu Family in Dong Tan County, Liu Chuan.”The lower demon king, Golden Scaled Crocodile, reported.
There were ‘traitors’ like ‘Old Softshelled Turtle’ in the Demon Race, and there were similarly traitors in the Human Race that they had bribed heavily to provide them with intelligence.
