732: Jiang Yurou lets go, the beast breaks out of its shell

In her somewhat resentful words, Jiang Yurou's face showed displeasure.

"Then you were too careless. How could you go to a place like the riverside so casually? You don't have any cultivation on you." Lin Yun said with concern.

His words, however, caused Jiang Yurou to lower her head slightly: "Senior Brother Lin Yun, am I very useless without cultivation?"

"How could that be?" Hearing the woman's dispirited words, Lin Yun comforted her: "Cultivation has never been the measure of whether a person is useful or useless. I like you for who you are, not for your cultivation."

I like you.

The appearance of these four words, at the moment they entered Jiang Yurou's ears, should have stirred up a joyful and pleasant mood.

Only.

At this moment, Jiang Yurou felt that the sound was so distant, as if separated by a chasm that could never be crossed!

Covering her mouth, the woman, unable to face him, let her tears fall onto the quilt.

"Senior Brother Lin, we... are not suitable." The woman made some kind of decision, her tone as flat as possible.

"I am just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who will die in a few decades. If we become Dao Companions, I cannot accompany you forever either."

"Your cultivation talent is so good, you should have more resources. You will meet many women who are much more excellent than me. She can give you abundant cultivation resources, you can accompany each other permanently, and it would be more suitable..."

As she spoke, the woman took out a small box and handed it to Lin Yun: "This is a Youth Preservation Pill. It's too wasteful for an ordinary person like me to use, take it back."

"What happened? Tell me clearly." Seeing Jiang Yurou's behavior, Lin Yun frowned tightly, clearly sensing that something was wrong.

Jiang Yurou forced a smile: "Nothing."

"It's just that I suddenly realized how fragile I am as an ordinary person. How can an ordinary person become a Dao Companion with a Cultivator?"

After her words fell, Jiang Yurou turned her head away: "Senior Brother Lin, please take this Youth Preservation Pill back."

"Did your Revered Master force you?" Lin Yun's brows didn't relax at all, feeling that Jiang Yurou's behavior was completely unexpected.

"Not Revered Master..."

"It was me!" Ninth Elder appeared at the doorway at some point and spoke directly.

"You brat, hurry up and leave before this seat gets angry, and stop getting entangled with my ""Tu""!" Ninth Elder folded her arms across her chest, her tone very impolite.

"Ninth Elder, what you said is completely wrong." Lin Yun looked at the Ninth Elder before him and patiently explained: "If an ordinary person wants longevity, they only need to consume longevity series Spirit Plants that are a hundred thousand years old!"

"A single longevity grass, longevity flower, or longevity fruit can extend an ordinary person's life by ten years, and I have a way to get those Spirit Plants!"

"Are you leaving or not? If you don't, I'll take action!" Ninth Elder didn't listen to a single word Lin Yun said.

Lin Yun's mouth twitched slightly.

Looking at Jiang Yurou on the bed, who seemed to show no change in expression, Lin Yun comforted her: "Yurou, don't think too much, rest well for now, and I'll come see you later."

After speaking.

Lin Yun glanced at the Ninth Elder at the doorway, sighed slightly in his heart, and walked towards the door.

"Senior Brother Lin!"

Suddenly, from the bed behind him, the woman's voice abruptly rang out.

It was like a final attempt to make him stay.

Lin Yun's footsteps paused slightly.

Looking at the A Man at the doorway, Jiang Yurou spoke dazedly: "If..."

After uttering two words, the woman had no more to say.

After a moment of silence, she said: "It's nothing, Senior Brother Lin, be careful on your way."

After the A Man left, Jiang Yurou immediately buried her head in the quilt, sobbing and whimpering.

[If I said everything I said before was false, and I want to be with you, want to become your Dao Companion, would that be okay?]

[If I wait for you for the rest of my life, is there a possibility that we could end up together?]

After coming out of Small Grass Mountain, Lin Yun's mood was somewhat vexed.

Jiang Yurou's state was very similar to when he learned he was to become the Empress's Husband in his previous life.

He also didn't know what this woman had found out.

But that shouldn't be the case. He had already lived another life, and he was completely unrelated to that woman Kongtong Frost Snow. There was no way Jiang Yurou said those things to him because of that matter.

Perhaps this drowning incident caused her significant psychological trauma.

As he exhaled a breath of turbid air, Lin Yun also realized the worry in Jiang Yurou's previous words.

The main reason was simply her fear that her lifespan was insufficient compared to a Cultivator's, and she wouldn't be able to accompany him until old age.

The only way for ordinary people to extend their lifespan is to consume longevity series Spirit Plants and longevity pills.

For longevity series Spirit Plants, the threshold is that they only become effective after a hundred thousand years!

Therefore, they are quite precious.

But for Lin Yun, with the Reverse World, he would only need a hundred days to harvest a batch!

He went all the way to the Sect's contribution point exchange area.

Within the Dan Sect, the main trading currencies besides Spirit Stones were contribution points.

The exchange rate between Spirit Stones and contribution points was also roughly one to one.

Lin Yun planned to use contribution points to exchange for some Spirit Plant seeds.

[Longevity Grass Seeds] (1 Spirit Stone / 100 seeds)

[Enlightenment Fruit Seeds] (1 Spirit Stone / 100 seeds)

[One-Year Great Sage Mushroom] (1 Spirit Stone / 10 plants)

There were many types of Spirit Plants.

Of course, most were seeds and some low-year plants, with few Spirit Plants that were hundreds or thousands of years old.

And those seeds were quite cheap, Lin Yun bought a rough selection of them all.

When he got to the Reverse World, these could all be directly converted into precious Spirit Plants worth a fortune!

Like longevity grass.

The seeds of this thing were basically fake when placed outside, but in the Dan Sect, they were real.

Because on the medicine mountain within the Dan Sect, there were over a dozen plants being cultivated.

They had grown for a thousand years so far.

Although they were far from reaching a hundred thousand years old, the level where they could be used as medicine, the seeds produced each year were quite numerous.

The managing Elder of the medicine mountain would sell them, which was a small bit of extra income.

After storing the seeds properly, Lin Yun returned to Small Flower Mountain.

After returning, he was somewhat dumbfounded.

A round little thing was lying on his bed, snoring continuously, while some Spirit Plant branches and leaves were scattered by the bed.

Those were the thousand-year-old Spirit Plants he had cultivated in the Reverse World, and they had clearly been eaten by the fellow in front of him!

While feeling a bit of anger in his heart, Lin Yun also noticed.

On the other side of this little thing, there were also a few pieces of broken eggshell!

This is...

"A Divine Beast?!" Lin Yun instantly realized.

The Divine Beast he had received from the Reverse World Senior had actually hatched!
