“The work you are doing is what’s important; my test is not a big deal…” Lin
Jing said.
Li Tangyu nodded, then immediately added,
“Alright, Brother Lin, we will take our leave now…”
“We still need to take Little Sparrow back to see my grandfather and the rest.”
“Okay…”
Lin Jing responded.
After saying goodbye to Lin Jing, the two of them left with Little Sparrow.
Having seen off the two guests, Lin Jing returned to the courtyard and not long after, he entered the System Space to engage in alchemy.
Time flew by swiftly, and two days passed quickly.
On this day, Lin Jing was in the middle of alchemy within the System Space when an alert from the system was issued.
“Alert!”
“Intruder detected within the alert perimeter, please respond in a timely manner, host.”
At that moment, Lin Jing was at a critical stage in his alchemy, too busy to pay heed; he did not attend to it further and continued to focus his energies on refining the Elixir Medicine.
rlWvo quarters of an hour passed before Lin Jing completed the Elixir Furnace Medicine.
After the refinement was finished, Lin Jing immediately stored away the Elixir Medicine and then he said,
“System.”
“Enter Observation Mode.”
Subsequently, Lin Jing’s perspective shifted above the small courtyard.
He then moved his viewpoint toward the gate, but found no one there.
“It seems they must have seen that no one was around and left already…” Lin Jing muttered to himself, not really concerned.
Lin Jing then turned his viewpoint around to survey around the courtyard. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, he exited Observation Mode.
Fearing further disturbances, Lin Jing decided not to continue alchemy but instead left the System Space.
Subsequently, Lin Jing began to meditate and cultivate inside the house.
Roughly half an hour later, while he was meditating, Lin Jing suddenly heard a noise from outside.
So he opened his eyes and sent his Divine Sense out.
With this sweep, he discovered that it was Little Sparrow outside.
“It seems that the alert from the system just now must have been Little Sparrow…” Lin Jing thought to himself.
Little Sparrow had returned at some point, indicating that the investigation of the Demon Race’s Secret Realm had concluded, and therefore Little Sparrow had been released to return.
At that moment, Little Sparrow perched in front of Lin Jing’s door, chirping inside.
“Little Sparrow, you’re back…” Lin Jing spoke in response.
He then got up, walked over, and opened the door.
As soon as the door was opened, Little Sparrow gripped Lin Jing’s sleeve in its beak and flew outside.
Lin Jing was initially startled but then realized what was happening and said to Little Sparrow,
“Little Sparrow…”
“Is it that the person I asked you to track has gone to a new location?”
Little Sparrow nodded its head like a pecking chicken.
“Okay, I’ll follow you right now…” Lin Jing said.
“It must be said, Little Sparrow is indeed dedicated; having only just completed the reconnaissance, and without even seeing me, it went straight to tracking.”
“Little Sparrow, you really are busy…”
With Little Sparrow leading the way, Lin Jing followed quickly behind.
In this manner, Little Sparrow led Lin Jing out of the alley and then through the bustling streets of Fang Market.
In the end, they arrived near a grand residence with towering gates, and Lin Jing saw that the courtyard was actually the Liu Clan’s.
Lin Jing then stopped in his tracks.
Afterwards, Little Sparrow gestured insistently towards the Liu Clan’s home to Lin Jing.
“Little Sparrow, are you saying that the person went inside this courtyard?” Lin Jing asked Little Sparrow.
Upon hearing this, Little Sparrow nodded.
That Pill Master surnamed Wang had actually entered Liu Manor. Following this, Lin Jing fell silent for a moment, then said to Little Sparrow:
“Little Sparrow, you don’t need to follow anymore. Go back first and come to find me tonight. I will give you the elixir medicine then.”
Little Sparrow cocked its head, looked at Lin Jing for a while, and then flew away directly.
“Is this Pill Master surnamed Wang really colluding with the Liu Clan?”
“Could he have been sent by Liu Yiyuan?”
Lin Jing had suspected this before, but he couldn’t be certain.
After all, the actions of this Pill Master surnamed Wang were too abnormal without reason.
As the saying goes, an abnormality signifies something demonic.
Therefore, he had Little Sparrow tail this Pill Master surnamed Wang.
The reason Lin Jing let Little Sparrow go back first was to better eavesdrop on information.
However, the Liu Clan’s defenses were too strict; Lin Jing definitely couldn’t get in.
What’s more, there was a Wu Cai Immortal inside.
so…
He didn’t plan to go in, but to use another method to investigate.
Having used Observation Mode during this period, he had gained new understandings of it.
Observation Mode was, without a doubt, the best for eavesdropping on information.
Because Observation Mode could ignore terrain obstacles and probe directly into any place, but its only drawback was that Observation Mode had a range limitation.
Lin Jing had to first get close to the target he wanted to investigate. He must get as close to the Liu Clan’s compound as possible.
Then, Lin Jing looked around…
Next to the Liu Clan to the west was another family’s yard in the Inner Fang Market, with a narrow passageway between the two houses.
However, because this place was secluded, there were very few other people coming and going, which made it relatively quiet.
Seeing this alleyway, Lin Jing had an idea.
He first crossed the street and then bypassed the Liu Clan’s front entrance, heading towards that alleyway.
After turning into the alleyway and taking two turns, Lin Jing saw that there was no one around and directly called out the system, entering the System Space.
Just arriving in the System Space, Lin Jing began to call out the system.
“System.”
“Enter Observation Mode.”
Then, Lin Jing’s point of view ascended, appearing directly above the Liu Clan.
Next, Lin Jing began to control the observation perspective, searching within the Liu Clan compound.
However, the Liu Clan’s compound was indeed not small; Lin Jing found that the area he could probe with Observation Mode was less than half of the Liu Clan’s estate.
The observation range of Observation Mode was determined by the size of the Spirit Field within his System Space.
His current Spirit Field was thirty acres, meaning the maximum range Lin Jing could probe was also this large, but even with such an area, he could only see a small part of the Liu Clan.
And this was in the Inner Fang Market, indicating the Liu Clan’s strength was extraordinary…
Lin Jing used Observation Mode to search the whole area he could probe, including the underground chambers.
Yet he did not see the Pill Master surnamed Wang, nor did he even see Liu Yiyuan.
“Nothing, it seems I need to find a different position,” Lin Jing thought to himself after the search.
Since the System Space was centered on Lin Jing’s own location, and he was now on the west side of the Liu Clan, there was a large area on the east side that he couldn’t observe.
To observe, he had to go to the east side alone and then enter the System Space to be able to observe it.
Following that…
Lin Jing exited Observation Mode and left the System Space.
After leaving the System Space, Lin Jing walked out along the passageway, turned two corners, and entered an alley.
Lin Jing followed the alley eastward and soon arrived at the east side of the Liu Clan…
Afterward, in a place where there was no one around, Lin Jing once again entered the System Space.
Immediately following, he initiated Observation Mode and began to probe.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Lin Jing finally found Liu Yiyuan in a secret chamber.
Alongside him stood the Pill Master surnamed Wang…
“These two are indeed in cahoots….’
