"It's all my fault! If she hadn't saved me, Miss Lin wouldn't have..."

Zhong Hanyan felt extremely guilty at the moment! She was about to fall down at that time. If Lin Qingwan hadn't caught her, she would have died!

Xuan Ye was also sad and said nothing!

"Miss Zhong, don't underestimate yourself. Master won't blame you! The most important thing right now is to come up with a solution instead of being sad and upset here!"

Ji Qianchen would never believe that her master would die like this! She was a cultivator, so she would be fine after falling off the cliff. Who knows, there might be some adventure!

"Yes, everyone, cheer up and don't be sad. Miss Lin will be fine. We should listen to her now. Evacuate first. It's very dangerous here!"

After all, Hu Sanniang lived a long life and experienced many great things. Often the truth is much better than we imagine! As the saying goes, when you are surrounded by mountains and rivers, you may think there is no way out, but when you turn around, you will find another village! It is useless to complain here!

Lin Yiyang stared blankly at the mountain opposite. At this moment, the mountain was just as motionless as when they first arrived.

Lin Yiyang clenched his fists, with nowhere to vent his anger, but he still said rationally: "Let's retreat first, withdraw from this area, and then wait here!"

Without saying much, everyone set off immediately, speeding up their pace and retreating in the direction they came from. They didn't stop until they reached a mountain further away. It was relatively safe here, and they could also observe the situation on that mountain! In order to make timely judgments and decisions!

At this moment, everyone felt like a huge rock was pressing on their hearts!

Lin Qingwan was swept into the bottom of the mountain stream. There was no thick fog here, but birds were singing, flowers were blooming, and trees were lush! It was like the paradise described by Tao Yuanming in his previous life. The only difference was that she didn't see anyone!

Lin Qingwan climbed up from the grass covered with flowers and looked around vigilantly. At this moment, she did not dare to release her spiritual consciousness. She could only hide her spiritual power and slowly grope her way forward.

She recalled that there was another peak behind the previous one, which seemed to hold another secret. At this moment, she was in the ravine where the two peaks intersected.

She looked around. Although the environment was beautiful, she did not find any signs of human habitation. Walking west along the mountain stream, she felt that the spiritual energy there was very strong. She did not find anything unusual along the way. But she was still puzzled by the suction power of the thick fog just now.

After walking for about half an incense stick of time, she finally saw a thatched hut in front of her, which seemed to be inhabited. Lin Qingwan became alert. The person who could live in this place that was inaccessible to human beings must not be an ordinary person. Moreover, she had not seen any signs of human movement along the way just now. But now a thatched hut appeared!

She approached cautiously. She didn't find any traps or formations. She didn't know if the people living inside were too powerful to care about these things, or if they were just ordinary people.

Lin Qingwan slowly approached the thatched house and gently pushed the door open. The dust on the door frame was scattered all over, choking Lin Qingwan so much that she could hardly open her eyes. After two or three seconds, Lin Qingwan walked in. What came into view was a dilapidated square table with a teapot on it, but it was covered with thick dust. Lin Qingwan turned her head and continued to look inside.

This time, Lin Qingwan gasped in shock. On the tattered bed, an old woman sat cross-legged, her gray hair hanging down from her head in a mess, covering the unknown face. She was dressed in rags, and Lin Qingwan felt that even the beggars on the street would not be reluctant to throw a few black coins in front of her when they saw her, right?

Lin Qingwan was not sure whether the old woman was dead or alive. She bravely called out a few times: "Senior? Senior?"

Lin Qingwan frowned. Seeing that the old woman did not react, she observed her again and saw that she was skinny and the only hand exposed was shriveled like a dead wood. Her skin was wrinkled and looked like a dried corpse!

Lin Qingwan bravely approached slowly, wanting to stretch out her hand to try to see if she was still breathing. Just as her finger was about to put under the old woman's nose, the withered hand on her chest suddenly raised up and grabbed Lin Qingwan's wrist. Lin Qingwan was startled and tried to break free from the withered arm, but the arm held tightly like a pair of pliers. Even though Lin Qingwan was at the peak of the late foundation building stage, she could not break free.

Lin Qingwan's heart sank and she began to panic. She was already prepared to hide in space when danger came.

However, the next second, the old woman let go of her arm, and Lin Qingwan was free. She quickly retreated to the door, and she felt a little safer. Even if she was attacked in the next second, she would have time to escape. Lin Qingwan looked at the old woman vigilantly.

The old woman slowly raised her bird's nest-like head, her deep eyes glowing white. It looked very scary! The wrinkles on her face were piled up together. Her lips were pale, like a living dead person!

"Senior, I didn't mean to intrude. Please don't blame me. I will leave now and won't disturb you any more!"

Lin Qingwan knew that the old woman was unfathomable, and she didn't want to stay any longer, so she wanted to leave as soon as possible. Just as she was about to turn around, she heard the old woman's voice coming from behind her.

"Wait, little girl! I'm not a bad person!"

Lin Qingwan paused and looked at the old woman again.

"Hey~ After so many years, you are the first person to find this place. I have nothing else to ask for. The only regret is that there is no one to inherit my heritage. You just happened to be here. Are you willing to inherit my mantle? I will not live long!"

Lin Qingwan was stunned? Inheriting the mantle? Not long for death? How could such a good thing happen in the world?

She was not one of those ignorant novice cultivators who thought that someone was a good person if he or she gave her a date. On the contrary, the old woman opposite her had a high level of cultivation, so why would she lie to a little girl like her?

Lin Qingwan looked at the old woman again, and there was no sign of anything unusual in her cloudy eyes. She asked tentatively, "Senior, I feel that I am dull and stupid, how can I be worthy of your attention? I am sorry to bother you, and I will leave now!"

Lin Qingwan wanted to leave again, but just as she reached the door, the wooden door slammed shut without any wind. Lin Qingwan's heart was alarmed. She was on alert! If they really started fighting, she would definitely not be the opponent of this old woman!

At this moment, she had no choice but to play along: "Haha, Senior, what do you mean? It's not that I don't want to be your disciple, but I already have a master, so it's inconvenient for me to be your disciple again!"

"Oh? You have a master? Who is he? Could you please tell me his name? Let this old woman...hear it!"

After a long while, the old woman finally said something with difficulty. It seems that she really doesn't have much time left! Lin Qingwan firmly believes this!

Lin Qingwan said calmly: "My master is called Nanshan Zhenren! I wonder if you have heard of him?"

Lin Qingwan made up a master on the spot and didn't want to reveal her true situation!

The old woman tilted her head, thought for a while, and then shook her head. It seemed that he was not a powerful person, which made her feel more relieved!

Lin Qingwan pretended to be embarrassed. The old woman smiled and grinned with difficulty. However, this smile was worse than no smile. It was really scary.

"Haha, it doesn't matter if you become my disciple. I just need someone to inherit my legacy. I don't care if you have a master or not. Little girl, this is a great opportunity, you must seize it!"

As she spoke, the old woman moved her fingers, and a storage ring appeared on the table, without any restrictions.

"You have become my disciple. This is the gift for us to meet each other. Please accept it!" He stopped talking after that.

Lin Qingwan scanned the ring with her consciousness and her face changed. Wow, there are so many good things in the ring! This old woman is really rich!

Seeing her expression change, the old woman's eyes hidden under her white hair flashed almost imperceptibly.
