You State, Xuanmiao City

Lin Jiang woke up from his seclusion and glanced at the system, which showed that he was already four hundred and fifty years old. He took out a mirror and looked at his face.

"Once I shave this beard, I’ll be a handsome young man again."

Lin Jiang looked at the handsome young man in the mirror and couldn’t help but praise himself. He had been growing his beard for many years and looked like a man in his thirties.

There’s nothing to be done. We’re all old ghosts now. It wouldn’t be right if I still had the face of a seventeen-year-old.

He stood up, opened the door, and startled Small Shadiao outside. Small Shadiao seemed to be sleeping and suddenly opened his eyes.

"Ah, Dad, you’re finally making some noise."

"Is this how you protect me, young man? Sleeping soundly?"

"Is that so?"

"Yes"

Small Shadiao spoke firmly, never needing to write down lies.

Lin Jiang ignored him and went out to the store. As soon as he entered, he saw Wei Lin teasing one of the waitresses with a joke, making all the women burst into laughter.

"Ahem"

Lin Jiang coughed, making Wei Lin realize the power of a capitalist. The women scattered in fear.

"Oh dear, the boss is here. Wow, impressive, already in the later stages of the golden core."

Wei Lin turned around, seeing Lin Jiang and immediately put on a flattering smile. He also noticed that Lin Jiang’s cultivation had reached the later stages of the golden core.

"If you have nothing to do, go pick up some manure in the city. Don’t come here to flirt with female cultivators."

"What are you saying? It’s them who flirt with me, alright?"

"Just you?"

"Yes, it’s just me. I am the Soul Changing Ancestor. Am I not worthy compared to their group of Qi Refining Building Foundation?"

"You dare to seduce the women of the Lin family again, I will send you back to the North State to eat sand."

Lin Jiang was furious. He wondered if Wei Lin didn’t go to the Zhongmiao Building because the prices had gone up. Instead, he targeted the female cultivators of the business establishment. ȒΑΝо𐌱ÊȘ

Not only that, this guy had high cultivation and thick-skinned. He took advantage of many of them, which made Lin Jiang angry. The helpers he worked so hard to recruit were stolen by him. He hardly ever showed up for work.

Most importantly, he married one of the Lin family women. Although Lin Jiang didn’t have much affection for those people, he didn’t want them to fall into a trap.

"You’re falsely accusing me, boss. I’m not playing with you anymore. I’m leaving."

Wei Lin felt guilty, so he quickly left to find his Small Shadiao brothers to play with.

Lin Jiang went to the accounting room and checked the books from his years of seclusion. After finding no issues, Lin Jiang took his share and planned to exchange it for high-grade spirit stones or rare materials.

After finishing the business, Lin Jiang immediately went to see Zhou Huaiying. Last time, their private collaboration was not pleasant. Lin Jiang didn’t meet Zhou Huaiying’s requirements. Although Zhou Huaiying didn’t retaliate or cause trouble, their relationship became somewhat distant. Lin Jiang gave several gifts before their relationship was repaired.

"Well done, after so many years, your skills have finally improved."

"I apologize for any inconvenience caused by my presence."

Lin Jiang spoke, his progress in cultivation has always been slow, but it sped up when he arrived in Xuanmiao City because he had money there and could freely use medicine.

"This visit is about those houses and shops, right?"

"Yes, it’s time to take action."

Lin Jiang said, the rampage of the Blood Demon Ancestor in Xuanmiao City happened more than ten years ago. Time flies. During these ten years, Xuanmiao City has gained many golden core and Nascent Soul cultivators, but there has never been a shortage of low-level cultivators.

Most of these people are outsiders with strong demands, which caused the housing prices in Xuanmiao City to rise again. Lin Jiang has been hoarding those houses for far too long, it’s time to sell.

It’s worth mentioning that last time, Lin Jiang failed to reach a private agreement with Zhou Huaiying. So, Lin Jiang persuaded Zhou Huaiying to join the real estate speculation, and Zhou Huaiying actually has more houses and shops than Lin Jiang.

"Okay, I’ll contact the other elders and we’ll all work together to release it."

"You have to release it slowly, taking three to five years."

Lin Jiang said. This kind of speculative behavior always benefits the wealthy and harms the lower class. The speculation and bottom-feeding are mainly done by the high-ranking members of the Tianxuan Sect, and it’s not just Zhou Huaiying alone.

"Sure."

"Also, there’s a small favor I need from you, senior. I hope you can keep my information hidden."

"You have the Lin family to rely on, so why worry?"

"Stay low-profile, silently make a fortune. The cultivation world always has strong individuals."

Lin Jiang said. The environment in You State and North State is much more chaotic than the central region. There are also many hidden experts, just like the Blood Demon Ancestor and Su Chang in the past. That’s why Lin Jiang also wants to keep a low profile.

"You’re right, staying low-key and making a fortune. Alright, I understand this matter. When you go to trade, someone will help you conceal your identity."

"Thank you, senior."

Lin Jiang immediately raised his hand and said, in fact, he was already quite low-key. He bought a large number of houses and shops, with half of them under other people’s names. But the remaining half was also very substantial. Just this part alone was enough to tempt Nascent Soul.

"Uncle ancestor."

Inside Lin Dongyan’s residence, Lin Dongyan bowed to Lin Jiang.

"Dongyan, it’s been several years since we last met."

"During these past few years, the uncle ancestor has been in seclusion. Dongyan dare not disturb."

"How are those elixirs?"

Lin Jiang asked. Lin Dongyan has become quite famous in Xuanmiao City these years. He is the only folk sixth-grade Alchemist. The other sixth-grade Alchemists are mostly affiliated with various major forces and rarely refine elixirs for others because they can’t even keep up with their own demand.

And Lin Dongyan, chosen by Lin Jiang himself, was truly an extraordinary worker. He had a record of not going out for ten years, spending all that time refining potions. His incredible output of potions surpassed all other Alchemists of the sixth rank.

"After some improvements, it’s mostly problem-free now. Actually, Zhong Jingyun has almost finished his research."

Lin Dongyan said that he had already tried to refine almost all of the potion recipes left by Zhong Jingyun, and he had made a great quantity of certain potions.

Currently, all of these potions have ended up in the mouths of the thieves in Xiaotian City. Lin Batian used them as drug testers and confirmed that these potions were no different from regular ones.

"Has everything been taken care of by the clan leader’s side? If not, I dare not take action."

"Everything has been taken care of. There were a total of thirty drug testers, and they were all eliminated."

Lin Dongyan revealed that Lin Batian had been extremely ruthless this time. He first promoted these thirty drug testers, pretending that they were his most trusted subordinates. But once the drug tests were finished, he silenced them all. Lin Batian personally took care of everything, leaving no loose ends.

"Since there are no problems, starting this year, provide me with the medicine. I don’t ask for much, just one pill per year. Is that okay?"

"No problem, but you have to provide the ingredients. I don’t have any money."

Lin Dongyan said that he actually earns just as much money as Lin Jiang does, but he is more selfless and gives most of his money to the Lin family.

Lin Jiang is extremely impressed by this. Lin Dongyan has no hobbies besides alchemy, and he doesn’t like women or men, drinking, or singing and dancing. He doesn’t have any hobbies at all, and is a pure alchemy fanatic.

"No problem."

Lin Jiang nodded. The ingredients for these pills are expensive, but it’s not a problem for him. He has been hiding in Xuanmiao City for these years and his wealth has grown. This expense is nothing.

"Uncle, with your cultivation level, as long as you don’t reach a bottleneck, one pill a year will be enough for you to achieve a perfect golden core in ten years."

"That fast?"

Lin Jiang raised an eyebrow, somewhat skeptical. Even for someone with a fast cultivation speed, it takes many years to advance even a small level. It’s already very fast for someone to advance one small level in ten years, and it’s not uncommon for it to take three to five decades. Some people remain stuck in the early stage of the golden core for their whole lives.

While the later stage of the golden core and achieving a perfect golden core may seem like just a small level, it often takes just as much time as advancing from the early stage to the later stage. At least Lin Jiang feels that he still has a long way to go before achieving a perfect golden core.

"Uncle will know when the time comes."

Lin Dongyan stopped speaking. Those people were extremely domineering. Judging from the situation of the main medicine, if it was matched well, it could save the user decades of cultivation. With ten pills, breaking through to the perfect stage of the Golden Core realm would not be a problem.

"Then I’ll wait and see."

Lin Jiang nodded and then left. He wanted to see how powerful this pill really was.
