Cultivation: Being Immortal-Chapter 459:

Zhong State, Danxia Sect

The Gu family is a big family in the Danxia Sect. Many people from the Gu family join the Danxia Sect, but some also establish their own families outside to support the Danxia Sect. The tradition of the Gu family is as ancient as that of the Danxia Sect.

The entrance of the Gu family’s mountain is 3,000 miles away from the entrance of the Danxia Sect. They have their own big mountain, with a certain peak serving as the ancestral tomb of the Gu family. Not every member of the Gu family can enter the ancestral tomb, only those who have reached the Soul Changing Period.

The reason is simple. The Gu family has a long history and over the years, they have accumulated many members. If everyone enters the ancestral tomb, there wouldn’t be enough space for everyone in the mountain.

Those below the Soul Changing Period can only be cremated, with a small tablet placed in the ancestral hall.

Several elderly Nascent Soul individuals became the caretakers of the Gu family’s ancestral tomb. But at this moment, they had fainted. Zhou Huaiying followed Lin Die as they moved slowly through the Gu family’s ancestral tomb, eventually stopping in front of a tombstone.

"The caretakers of the Gu family are unreasonable."

Lin Die bent down, pulled out a few weeds near the tombstone, and then sat down next to it.

"You can step back a bit."

Lin Die told Zhou Huaiying, who walked silently for a few dozen meters, aimlessly glancing left and right.

"In my whole life, I have never let down the world or my family, but I owe you something."

Lin Die looked at the gravestone and said. Here lies Gu Hengbo’s grave, this grave belongs to Gu Hengbo.

She met Gu Hengbo unexpectedly, and he fell in love with her at first sight. Unfortunately, at that time, Lin Die couldn’t pursue her feelings because of the turmoil in the Lin family caused by Lin Batian seeking revenge. Even though Lin Die was touched by Gu Hengbo’s sincerity, she didn’t dare to develop romantic feelings.

Later, when she was trapped in Xiaotian City and even her father Lin Batian hesitated to save her, Gu Hengbo arrived. He risked his life to attract the attention of the leaders of the Danxia Sect to provide her with an opportunity to escape. Gu Hengbo was severely injured in the process, and Lin Die was deeply moved. She realized that true love could truly make people willing to sacrifice everything.

Over the next thousand years, Gu Hengbo tried to find her several times, and Lin Die became aware of it. This made their love even more profound.

Sadly, fate plays tricks on people. By the time she reappeared, Gu Hengbo had been dead for many years, having exhausted his lifespan and died from melancholy. He had become a laughingstock for the Gu family. The elders in the Gu family used Gu Hengbo as an example to warn their children against falling in love, fearing it would lead to a lifetime of regret.

Lin Die spoke many words in front of Gu Hengbo’s grave, sitting there for a long, long time until the people from the Gu family noticed something was amiss, and she quietly left.

"Taoist friend, please stop."

In the Yun State, at the Heavenly Wall, Li Yuncheng’s large face appeared and stopped the two visitors.

"Li Yuncheng, I’m back again."

"Zhou Huaiying, you…"

"Quickly report to the Lin family leader."

"What do you want to do?"

"Just report."

Zhou Huaiying casually said, showing flexibility. Since he couldn’t defeat the enemy now, he chose to lay low and completely changed his mindset.

After a moment of silence, Li Yuncheng quickly passed on the message to the top leaders of the Lin family. Over the past few hundred years, the Lin family had gone through rapid development. They now had five Void Achieving members, unlike in the past when there was only Lin Ying left.

The five Void Achieving members appeared together, watching Zhou Huaiying cautiously. However, Lin Ying quickly shifted their focus to a person beside Zhou Huaiying. Lin Ying couldn’t believe what they saw and tears filled their eyes instantly.

"Third Sister, is that you, Third Sister?"

"It’s me, Sister Three."

"It really is you, Third Sister."

Lin Ying cried out and flew directly to Lin Die, holding her tight. Lin Die shuddered, instinctively trying to break free, but then stopped and let Lin Ying hug her and cry.

The Lin family was stunned to see this scene. Weren’t they enemies? How did it become the Third Ancestor? The Third Ancestor has been missing for over a thousand years, so why is she back again?

Someone tried to secretly probe Lin Die’s cultivation with their divine sense, but couldn’t figure it out, which made them extremely terrified.

"Third Sister, where have you been all these years?"

Lin Ying cried and said, she really missed Third Sister.

"Go home and talk."

"Yes, yes, go home."

Lin Ying suddenly realized, yes, they should go home. Anhua City is their home. The Lin family has spent the longest time in Anhua City in the Yun State.

Lin Ying brought Lin Die back to the Lin family and cried for a while. While crying, Lin Ying slowly told Lin Die what had happened to the Lin family after Lin Die went missing.

"Is Sixth Brother still alive?"

"Yes, he’s alive. My brother is Xiao Yi, he’s Lin Wu, he deceived us terribly."

"It’s really him."

"Oh, Third Sister, you knew earlier."

"No, but I had suspicions. I just didn’t want to expose it at that time. Whether it’s Lin Jiang or Lin Wu, they are ultimately descendants of the Lin family. As long as their hearts are with the Lin family, it’s enough."

Lin Die shook her head. She did have suspicions at first, but in the cultivation world, having its own secrets is very normal. So she didn’t expose it, as long as she remained loyal to the Lin family in her heart.

"Oh, my brother doesn’t know you’re back yet. I’ll message him."

Lin Ying suddenly remembered that his brother didn’t know Lin Die had returned and wasn’t in Yun State.

·········

"The whole family are monsters."

After Zhou Huaiying found out about Lin Jiang, he was greatly shocked. If he remembered correctly, he had deceived Lin Jiang before and almost killed him.

When Zhou Huaiying calculated Lin Jiang’s lifespan, he realized something was wrong. He sighed, thinking Lin Batian might be a monster to a certain extent, but he couldn’t accept Lin Die. Now, he was Lin Die’s captive.

"Brother····"

As Lin Jiang landed at the Lin family’s gate, Lin Ying cried out in surprise.

"Lin Ying, where is Third Sister?"

"In the house"

"Go"

Lin Jiang walked into the house quickly and excitedly. After more than a thousand years, the Lin family had spent countless efforts trying to find the missing Third Sister, and now she had finally returned.

"Zhou Huaiying"

But when Lin Jiang entered the house, he saw Zhou Huaiying instead. This surprised Lin Jiang as he wondered why Zhou Huaiying was there.

"Brother, I forgot to tell you, Zhou Huaiying is now being controlled by Third Sister using a secret enslavement technique."

"Really?"

"Why would I lie to you? Otherwise, how could he be staying here peacefully?"

"Haha…"

After hearing this, Lin Jiang burst into laughter, making Zhou Huaiying feel a chill down his spine. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Indeed, the next thing Lin Jiang said was, "Third Sister, help me out, stop Zhou Huaiying from resisting."

"Okay."

Lin Die smiled as she looked at Lin Jiang, knowing what he was about to do. She didn’t intervene, as Zhou Huaiying had tricked the Lin family many times before.

"Lin Die, you can’t do this. You promised me…"

"Better to die with honor than to live in disgrace, Lin Jiang, I’ll fight you to the end…"

"Ah…"

The Lin family members couldn’t bear to watch as Zhou Huaiying was in a pitiful state. He was completely controlled by Lin Die and couldn’t fight back, like a punching bag.

Meanwhile, Lin Jiang repeatedly struck Zhou Huaiying, almost to the point of death. If it weren’t for Zhou Huaiying’s training in the Blood Demon Manual, which made him resilient to physical blows, he would have died long ago.

After being beaten, Zhou Huaiying was a pile of flesh on the ground. He didn’t die, but he didn’t want to gather himself back together, preferring to stay as if dead.

Lin Jiang also ran out of energy after the fight, but he felt an unprecedented sense of relief. After so many years, he finally got to beat up his enemies, and it felt really good.

"Third Sister, I’m better now."

After catching his breath, Lin Jiang said to Lin Die, "I’m out of energy for today, but this isn’t over. We’ll take it slow."

"Okay."

Lin Die looked at Lin Jiang with shining eyes, staring at him as if she didn’t recognize him, trying to see through him.
