Cultivating with Top Enlightenment

To find such unparalleled Spirit Medicines again, there might only be a few forces as resourceful as the Demon Sect that could possess them. ...

Years passed at True Martial Mountain.

Everyone was cultivating diligently, just waiting for the day to astonish the world. Upon receiving the Heaven-Reaching Pill from Ning Qi, Taoist Longshan stood still for a long time, both gratified and ashamed, and finally took it with a heart full of complex emotions.

Everyone else was also working hard, from the Sect Leader to the disciples, all the same.

The threat from the Demon Sect and the Southern Border greatly diminished.

The True Martial Sect enjoyed a rare period of peace.

Yet during this time.

The Great Yan was constantly undercurrents.

The Demon Sect suffered a catastrophe, initially unbeknownst to the Southern Border, but as the hidden movements became more significant, they inevitably affected the Southern Border. When they found they couldn’t contact the Demon Sect’s upper echelons, they were startled to realize that something significant had happened to the Demon Sect!

In no time.

The Southern Border began swiftly retracting all activities in the Great Yan, leaving no remnants this time.

They were extremely apprehensive of the mysterious force that annihilated the Demon Sect.

According to various intelligence received, the Demon Sect was not eliminated by the Imperial Court. They just took advantage of the situation.

They intended to contact Lin Xueshuang, who had been overseeing the hunting of Exotic Beast Inner Cores in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, but discovered that unbeknownst to them, Lin Xueshuang, together with many of the core members of the Lin Clan, had vanished without a trace.

This naturally caused even greater alarm for the Southern Border.

They felt that there seemed to be an invisible hand manipulating everything behind the scenes.

And Lin Xueshuang naturally came to True Martial Mountain.

After receiving a message from her daughter, she deliberated for several days and finally decided to bring the Lin clan members to come. "Lin Xueshuang, greets the True Man." The well-dressed lady in the long dress looked with slight surprise at the Taoist Longshan, whose aura was beyond her imagination. According to the information, this True Man Longshan had only been at the Celestial Realm for a few years, yet his aura was exceptionally powerful.

She secretly praised that this True Man Longshan was a genius, and so she even more acknowledged this family connection.

Taoist Longshan smiled warmly: "Clan Leader Lin, there’s no need for formality. We are now family. By rights, my unworthy fifth disciple should have come to ask for your daughter’s hand formally, with a proper marriage proposal. But now that they’re wed in private, I hope Clan Leader Lin does not take offense."

Jiang Baishan and Lin Ruhua stood embarrassed to the side, especially Lin Ruhua, who dared not meet Lin Xueshuang’s gaze.

Indeed, matters had been handled hastily, forcing Lin Xueshuang to make many concessions.

Lin Xueshuang gave a soft snort before finally letting out a long sigh: "True Man speaks too highly. From now on, there is no more Holy Sect or Demon Sect in this world. Lin Xueshuang is merely the clan leader of the Lin Clan, and in the future, we will reside in seclusion within the realm of True Martial Mountain, so I ask the True Man for some guidance."

The meaning was already clear: all past matters were set aside, she would establish a new Lin Clan with no connection to the Demon Sect.

Looking at her daughter and son-in-law, her face softened: "As for them, as long as they are harmonious and joyful, everything else is trivial."

She had learned about the previous attack on them and affirmed Jiang Baishan’s performance. In fact, barring the fact that he ran away with her daughter, Jiang Baishan had considerable talent and was destined for great achievements. Having such a talented individual as her son-in-law, she had no reason to be dissatisfied.

Especially after learning her daughter was with child, it was even more so.

Taoist Longshan’s smile deepened. "Thank you, Clan Leader Lin, for your understanding. But tradition must not be abandoned. Since you are here, we should set an auspicious date for a wedding ceremony for them."

Lin Xueshuang also nodded with a smile: "Naturally, but given the circumstances, we shouldn’t make it too grand. Our two families can just gather a few close friends."
