Time passed bit by bit. In these three days, Lin Ray had been cultivating every day. After all, he had a source of spiritual energy. After three days of cultivation and observation of the little golden coffin, he discovered something.
Whenever the spiritual energy was about to dry up, he would stop cultivating and wait until the next day to recover. Lin Ray was excited about this.
After all, the spiritual energy wouldn't disappear along with his cultivation. Just this point alone was enough to make him excited.
Today was the appointed time between him and Yu Ling. Today, as long as Yu Ling didn't appear or didn't collect the herbs, he wouldn't stay here for even a minute. He would directly leave with Xue Lingtian.
As a former saint level alchemist, how could he not care about his reputation? If he had to wait in the Divine World to refine a pill for someone, the threshold would be crowded.
After waking up from his training, the nearby Blood Spirit Sky woke up as well. Perhaps because it had sensed Linley's presence, it had woken up as well.
"Awake?"
"En!"
Xue Lingtian was already used to Lin Ray's indifferent question. "Today is the third day. If you don't come today, I …"
"I know. If you don't come today, we will leave." Lin Ray promised.
"En!" Xue Lingtian nodded and then closed his eyes again. It was unknown if he was cultivating or not.
Seeing Xue Lingtian like this, Lin Ray didn't pay attention to him. He got up, patted his wrinkled clothes, opened the door, and walked out.
Early in the morning, it was the time for some people to come out and do some activities.
For example, peddlers, or … beggars. No matter where one was, beggars would always exist. Even in a world where there was no war, beggars would still appear, let alone in a place like the Destiny World where there was still a monarch system.
At this time, it was the time for them to come out and look for food. Because every morning, there would be some people who would throw away some rotten leaves or leftovers from the day before.
A seven or eight year old boy, dressed in tattered clothes and emitting a strange smell, had come in from who knows where, and was currently in the kitchen of the restaurant Linley was in.
At this moment, there was no one in the kitchen, but the table was already filled with food. Of course, it was not hot, but leftovers from yesterday.
There was everything, chicken, duck, fish, and even some Demonic Beast meat. Looking at these things, the little boy couldn't help but reach out and grab a chicken leg and stuff it into his mouth.
"No … no way." Just as the drumstick was about to reach his mouth, the oil on the drumstick seeped into the boy's lips. But at that moment, the boy stopped.
"My little sister is still waiting at home, I …" Looking at the dishes on the table, the little boy's expression became firm. He took out a particularly clean piece of white cloth that did not match his clothes at all.
Putting the white cloth on the table, he took a chicken and fish, and asked some cultivators to take some steamed buns from the steamer. Then, he picked them up and stuffed them into his arms, turned around, and walked out.
However, coincidentally or not, at this moment, Lin Ray wandered to the backyard for some reason. Just as Lin Ray continued to wander forward, a little boy in tattered clothes rushed out of a room with a flustered expression. His head kept sweeping around as if he was afraid of being discovered.
"Hehe, interesting!"
The little boy's behavior attracted Lin Ray's attention. Although he didn't know why the little boy was like this, he knew that the little boy didn't live here by looking at his clothes.
Perhaps it was because the little boy had piqued Linley's interest, but as soon as the little boy left, Linley, for some strange reason, followed him.
In this regard, the little boy running forward didn't know that he had been followed.
But fortunately, it was Lin Ray who followed. If it was the people in the restaurant, I'm afraid the little boy wouldn't be able to survive.
Along the way, the little boy quietly looked for a remote place without people. Lin Ray understood that he was afraid of being discovered.
Following all the way through the bustling place, Lin Ray didn't know how long the little boy ran for, but he finally came to a particularly barren place. It could be said that there was no vitality here. Even some weeds were unwilling to grow here.
Looking at the dilapidated houses around as if no one had lived here for a long time, Lin Ray frowned, but he still followed.
In a house with only one room left, the little boy hurriedly walked into the room and closed the door. It seemed that he was unwilling to be discovered by others. After entering the room, he still locked the door.
"This little boy's mind is like this." If it was an ordinary person, it was impossible to do this series of actions.
Without approaching, he instantly released his divine sense. Suddenly, the situation in the room appeared in his mind.
At this moment, in the room, a three-year-old little girl was lying on the tattered bed. After the little boy came back, he made all the preparations and finally came to the little girl's side. Looking at the little girl who was still sleeping soundly on the bed, the little boy smiled.
"You little girl, you don't know how to worry at your age." Looking at his little sister, the little boy smiled bitterly.
"But it's good that you don't have to worry. This way, you can grow up happily and don't have to worry about those trivial things."
"As for those trivial things, leave them to me! I will protect you. " Saying that, he reached out and patted his little sister's head. From his bosom, he took out the food he stole from the restaurant and placed it on the broken table.
"Creak, creak, creak."
The moment the little boy placed the food on the table, the table shook and made a hair-raising sound, as if it would collapse at any time.
"Hmm? Meat … "
In the dream, the little girl smelled the aroma of meat and instinctively opened her eyes. Her sleepy eyes were very cute, but because of the tattered clothes, it was a little unique.
However, it had to be said that the little boy cared about his little sister very much. Because the little girl's face was not as dirty as his, but very clean, surprisingly clean. Even her clothes were the same. Although they were tattered, they were very clean.
In this regard, Lin Ray looked at the little boy in a new light, especially now. Dusty memories came to his mind.
"Xuanyuan, you were just like him back then. For the sake of your loved ones, you did not hesitate to be beaten, scolded, and even face the danger of death."
"Yes, we were born as humans and cultivate to become gods. Naturally, we should protect our friends and family, and not let them come to any harm."
"Isn't cultivation to have the ability to protect the people you want to protect? Isn't cultivation to pursue a higher realm? Isn't cultivation to break through the Dao and achieve eternity?"
