She became a god

Meanwhile, Lin Jingchuan followed the plan and stayed at the Song family's house for a short time before bidding farewell to his fellow villagers and friends, declaring that he was going north to seek help from the Xue family.

Along the way, he changed his usual extravagant lifestyle of traveling by spirit boat, and instead shared a heavenly horse with others, looking every bit the down-and-out scion of a noble family.

This is also part of their plan.

Because of the escape of the traitor, the Lin family did not go to their original ancestral home to live in seclusion, but instead went to the State of Yu.

Neither the erroneous information they relayed nor the known information they received revealed the current whereabouts of the Lin family.

Ye Qingzhou seized upon this point, instructing Wen Xichun to summon lightning to strike the house that night, creating the illusion of heavenly fire.

Lin Jingchuan is now using himself as bait, waiting for the family traitors and mysterious forces to take the bait.

In order to get those people to make their move sooner, Lin Jingchuan had to pretend to have fallen out with Ye Qingzhou and the others.

Three months have passed, and today Lin Jingchuan is going to Jincheng. North of Jincheng is Xuecheng.

He wasn't sure if those people would make their move before or after entering Jincheng, or on their way to Xuecheng after leaving Jincheng.

That night, the moon was bright and the stars were few.

In an ordinary guest room at the inn, Lin Jingchuan lay on the hard bed he had never slept on three months ago. Perhaps he was too tired, or perhaps he had gotten used to it, he quickly fell asleep.

Cultivators may not need to sleep, but that doesn't mean they don't feel sleepy.

A gentle breeze drifted in through the latticed window, and Lin Jingchuan slept even more soundly.

His face was so serene that a hint of resentment flashed in the eyes of the man in black who had climbed in.

The man in black chuckled evilly at Lin Jingchuan, "Once I finish using the Soul Searching Technique, I'll kill you, you piece of trash."

Before he could finish casting the spell, he felt a chill on the back of his neck.

It's a sword!

He had a sword pointed at him!

A bad feeling just began to rise in my mind.

Then Lin Jingchuan, who had been sleeping, opened his eyes, got up, and thanked him from behind, saying, "Thank you for your great help, Fellow Daoist Wen."

Knowing that Wen Xichun was there, the man in black knew he couldn't escape, so he decided to explode and die.

Lin Jingchuan didn't give him a chance, but instead slapped him on the head.

The man in black stammered, "You actually... know soul-searching techniques?"

“Brother An, your mistake was treating me like a piece of trash.”

Lin Jingchuan laughed as he removed the black-clad man's veil.

This person was Lin Jing'an, the cousin of Lin Jingchuan who narrowly lost to Lin Jingchuan at the Yuya Grand Ceremony, and also one of the traitors who fled the Lin family.

Lin Jing'an looked at Lin Jingchuan with resentment, but he quickly forgot about it.

Soul-searching is an extremely evil technique. Cultivators' spiritual senses are already sensitive, so they cannot withstand rough examination.

At the very least, a cultivator whose soul has been searched will suffer severe damage to their vital energy; in more serious cases, they may become mentally unstable or even insane; the worst outcome is death on the spot due to the disorder of their consciousness!

Lin Jing'an originally intended to use it against Lin Jingchuan, but unexpectedly, it was he himself who was subjected to soul-searching.

The pain of his consciousness being disturbed caused him to cry out incessantly. If Ye Qingzhou hadn't secretly burned the soundproof talisman long ago, it would have attracted the attention of the entire inn and even the surrounding dozens of miles.

The commotion didn't last long. Lin Jingchuan quickly finished the soul search, casually snapped Lin Jing'an's neck, and crushed his consciousness.

Such a clean and efficient method of killing, without any hesitation, made Wen Xichun look at him with new respect.

Lin Jingchuan misunderstood, and he chuckled awkwardly, "I dare not be soft-hearted when dealing with traitors to the family."

"very good."

These two simple words were the first affirmation Lin Jingchuan received from Wen Xichun.

He couldn't help but get excited. "Sister Chun, Lin Jing'an remembers seeing a mysterious man in blue robes interacting with the Grand Elder and the others, but he doesn't know what the mysterious man in blue robes looks like or what his background is. We need to go find the Grand Elder and the others to find out."

"no next time."

Before Lin Jingchuan could figure out why Wen Xichun had suddenly become so cold, he saw Ye Qingzhou skipping and jumping up to Wen Xichun's side, "Sister Chun, are we going to raid their hideout and kill someone?"

There was a hint of excitement in his voice.

Wen Xichun nodded, then looked at Lin Jingchuan, "Lead the way."

Lin Jingchuan resigned himself to leading the way. Listening to the two women chatting and laughing behind him, he realized that Wen Xichun's "there will be no next time" probably meant that she should not call her Sister Chun anymore.

Looking back on their acquaintance, Wen Xichun had indeed only shown favor to Ye Qingzhou.

"Brother Chuan, what do you think we should do? Take them all at once or pick them off one by one?"

When Lin Jingchuan turned around, he saw Ye Qingzhou with two dimples on her face and her almond-shaped eyes sparkling. She was as happy as she was every day when they discussed what to eat.

Seeing such a bright smile, Lin Jingchuan's heart, hardened by the life and death of his family, softened for a moment. He heard himself reply in a gentle voice, "The First Elder and the Fifth Elder are both Nascent Soul cultivators. Although they were severely injured by several Supreme Elders of the clan and forced to escape, resulting in a great loss of vitality, they are still not people we can defeat in a short time."

"The Grand Elder is stubborn, quick-witted, suspicious, and extremely afraid of death. Before he was injured, he was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if his cultivation level has dropped, he is now only at the weak early Nascent Soul stage. It is still too dangerous for us, two Golden Core cultivators and one Foundation Establishment cultivator, to fight him."

Ye Qingzhou guessed his plan, "What about the Fifth Elder?"

"The Fifth Elder has probably fallen to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. He is greedy for money and lustful, and he is obsessed with food. If we take advantage of his unpreparedness and join forces to surround and kill him, we still have a 60% chance of winning."

Ye Qingzhou smiled and transformed into a beautiful woman with a lotus-like face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and a slender waist. Her cultivation level appeared to be that of someone who had just established their foundation.

Lin Jingchuan was full of praise, but he knew that this was not a good time to ask about the method of concealing one's cultivation level.

He told Ye Qingzhou about the Fifth Elder's quirks one by one, and then discussed strategies for dealing with the enemy with Wen Xichun.

Fifth Elder Lin Jiashu was very unhappy today. He recalled that when he was in the Lin family, as a family elder, he was highly respected and could indulge in wine, women, and wealth at his leisure.

In an attempt to take things a step further, he joined forces with Elder Lin Jiayou and a mysterious man in blue robes. However, just days before the plan was to begin, the scheme was exposed, and he was imprisoned.

They finally escaped, but their cultivation level plummeted.

His current cultivation level is even lower than Lin Jingchuan guessed; he is at the late Nascent Soul stage.

It's because he used to rely on drugs to improve his cultivation. The more drugs he used, the less real his strength became.

It has fallen sharply, but it will be difficult to rise back up.

These things were bad enough, but then, not long after they escaped, they heard that the Lin family had been razed to the ground by heavenly fire.

The mysterious man in blue urged them to quickly uncover the Lin family's secrets, while the Grand Elder also acted arrogantly towards them.

Lin Jing'an, the only person he could command, had been sent out. He hoped that Lin Jing'an would live up to expectations and return soon to report back.

Lin Jiashu was filled with resentment, and he took it out on the flowers, plants, and trees in this forest.

Suddenly, he smelled the aroma of meat. He looked in the direction and saw a roasted lamb on a fire stand about a hundred paces away, with a beautiful young girl sitting next to it.

The girl's figure was graceful and beautiful; even just a side view was breathtaking.

With beautiful women and delicious food before him, Lin Jiashu immediately walked over and said in a pretentious manner, "Which family's young lady are you? I see that you have extraordinary bones and have already entered the Foundation Establishment stage at such a young age. I am willing to give you some pointers. Would you like to become my disciple?"

The young woman looked up and saw that she had black hair, fair skin, a beautiful face, and a charming voice, "May I ask where you are from, elder?"

Her delicate and charming appearance made Lin Jiashu's bones melt. He couldn't help but lean forward, wanting to tease her a bit.

But then someone behind him stabbed him with a gun, shouting, "Old thief, prepare to die!"
