Steady Mortal Path: Starting from Obtaining the Golden Core Inheritance

Not a moment.

Two beautiful figures flew into the cave entrance, one after the other.

It was Nangong Qingtan and Su Xuyan.

"When did Master Lin discover these snow demon wolves?"

Nangong Qingtan's expression was not good.

Clearly, after discovering the size of these wolf packs, they lost their previous confidence.

"I have a rudimentary understanding of a perception technique, which allows me to subtly detect changes in the surrounding atmosphere. In addition, the white ape's behavior was quite suspicious, so I have some guesses."

Lin Changsheng responded calmly.

"These snow demon wolves have always lived in the western snow mountains, so why have they come here in such large numbers? It's a pity that the white ape must have sensed the danger first and fled in panic, taking the 'Cangming Sword' with it."

Su Xuyan's pretty face was still a little pale as she sighed.

They came here to collect the magical artifact, but at the last moment they failed and the white ape escaped with the artifact.

However, they were inexplicably surrounded by a group of snow demon wolves that had crossed over from another realm.

"Fellow Daoists, if you have any means of communication with your sect or family elders, it would be best to use them as soon as possible."

Lin Changsheng glanced at the two of them, his expression calm and composed.

Su Xuyan looked at Lin Changsheng with some surprise, feeling that this person was clearly just a rogue cultivator, yet he was always calm and composed in any situation.

However, a closer examination of this person reveals that this Forest Talisman Master is somewhat different from others.

Not only are his medical and talisman-making skills extremely famous in Thousand Crane Immortal City.

They were the first to notice the white ape's suspicious behavior and the approaching snow demon wolf pack.

Most importantly, this person's attitude towards himself and Nangong Qingtan showed no sign of deliberately trying to please or flatter them.

On the contrary, they got along very naturally, even deliberately keeping their distance, seemingly unwilling to communicate or get involved too much.

"My sect is far from here, so I can only ask Sister Qingtan to call upon my elders."

Su Xuyan's voice was somewhat weak, but she agreed to Lin Changsheng's suggestion.

Although she was confident that she had the means to deal with second-tier demonic beasts, she was now injured and her combat power was greatly reduced, not to mention facing an endless pack of wolves.

"Don't worry, Sister Su. I have already asked my elders for help through the communication talisman, but we still need to hold on for a few more days before that."

Nangong Qingtan offered words of comfort, but couldn't help glancing at Lin Changsheng with a complicated expression.

After a slight hesitation, she apologized softly, "It was Qingtan who misunderstood Master Lin earlier."

This was somewhat unexpected for Lin Changsheng.

Unexpectedly, this young lady from the Nangong family is quite knowledgeable about things.

"It's alright, let's just pray that we can hold this place until reinforcements arrive."

Lin Changsheng's impression of Nangong Qingtan changed somewhat, and his expression softened as he spoke.

The three looked at each other and gave each other a wry smile.

Just as they were talking, the snow demon wolves had already surrounded the cave entrance.

The howls of wolves echoed throughout the valley.

At the call of several second-tier demon wolves, a number of mid- to low-tier demon wolves rushed into the cave one after another.

"The cave entrance is narrow, so the wolf pack cannot invade in large numbers. I will trouble Fairy Nangong to hold them off for a while while I heal Fairy Su's wounds."

Lin Changsheng sensed it for a moment, then spoke.

In fact, if it weren't for the two women, Lin Changsheng would have had a second-tier, mid-grade 'Earth Escape Talisman' on him.

He used a lot of high-quality materials and spared no expense to barely complete this drawing.

It's meant to be used to save lives in critical moments.

However, if they leave directly, they will inevitably offend Nangong Qingtan and Su Xuyan.

It will be difficult to meet again in the Thousand Crane Immortal City.

Even if these two women were to perish in the wolf's belly today, while he himself were to appear safely in the city, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from the Nangong family and the people of Shangqing Palace.

He suspected that he was tempted by the money and was plotting to murder the two women.

After careful consideration, Lin Changsheng decided to stand with the two of them for the time being.

If they can hold out until the wolves retreat, or until reinforcements from the Nangong family arrive.

His experience of going through hardships with the two women was actually a great favor.

Of course, if he ultimately cannot escape and cannot hold out until reinforcements arrive, he will have no choice but to abandon the two women and flee for his own life.

"I'm sorry to trouble Master Lin with his help. I'm also sorry to trouble Sister Qingtan to hold on for a while. I will come to relieve you once I have recovered a bit."

Su Xuyan also agreed to Lin Changsheng's proposal.

Nangong Qingtan decisively summoned a second-tier silverback demon wolf to block the front, forcing back the aggressive snow demon wolves.

He then activated his magical artifact to finish off any wolves that tried to slip through the net.

On the other side, Su Xuyan hesitated for a moment, then slowly unbuttoned some of the blood-stained buttons on her palace dress and lifted her collar.

A patch of skin as white as solidified cream came into view.

Lin Changsheng saw that the woman was wearing a women's armor close to her body, which emitted a faint precious light and was obviously not an ordinary item.

If it weren't for the protective garment, the woman would likely have been either killed or seriously injured by the white ape's attack earlier.

“Fellow Daoist Su, your precious robe isolates my magical power, preventing me from directly attacking…”

Lin Changsheng's gaze was clear, and he deliberately changed the way he addressed her to downplay the difference between men and women.

If this woman is too concerned about the privacy of men and women, Lin Changsheng will definitely be unable to help her, which would be a waste of a fighting force. It would be difficult for him and Nangong Qingtan to hold out until reinforcements arrive.

Before she could finish speaking, Su Xuyan interrupted decisively, saying, "Master Lin, there's no need to worry. Please treat me in the way that is most convenient for you."

After saying that, Su Xuyan closed her eyes and let Lin Changsheng do as he pleased.

She knew that in this critical moment, the sooner she recovered, the greater her chance of survival.

Although she had only known this talisman master for a short time, he gave Su Xuyan a sense of reliability and reassurance.

Seeing how decisive this woman was, Lin Changsheng secretly admired her.

Without hesitation, he carefully began to remove Su Xuyan's intimate garment.

Then he immediately fastened the woman's collar again to cover her private parts.

Without the protective protective garment, ordinary clothing did not affect Lin Changsheng's treatment at all.

After doing all this, he gently placed his palm on Su Xuyan's back, and the power of the "Evergreen Tree Technique" was slowly injected into her body through the physician's secret technique to repair her injuries.

Sensing that Lin Changsheng made almost no unnecessary movements, Su Xuyan's eyelashes trembled slightly between her tightly closed eyes, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I felt a warm, gentle breeze spreading from my back, enveloping and soothing the injured area near my chest.

This emerald green aura was neutral and peaceful, and endlessly regenerating, as if it instantly healed most of my injuries.

Su Xuyan's face regained some color, and she looked radiant.

After performing this exercise for about half an hour, Lin Changsheng slowly stopped.

"Fellow Daoist Su's injuries are basically stable; all that's left is for him to adjust his breathing."

As Lin Changsheng spoke, he took out another Purple Rain Talisman, activated it, and handed it to the other party.

"Thank you for your help, Master Lin. If we can escape safely this time, I will definitely express my gratitude separately."

Su Xuyan opened her beautiful eyes, which brightened slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Su should adjust his breathing as soon as possible and recover his strength so that he can replace Fellow Daoist Nangong."

Lin Changsheng looked towards the cave entrance, his expression showing some worry.

There were over a thousand first-tier demonic beasts and several second-tier demonic wolves.

Even if they attacked the cave in batches, it would be difficult for them to hold out for long.

Lin Changsheng sincerely hoped that the two women would be safe and sound in the end, and that he could also gain this 'favor' from them.
