Chapter 26: The Secret of the Long Family

  "Big brother, how have you been lately?"

  This time Ling'er sneaked into H City, and I took the opportunity to ask her to bring you a bottle of Jing Shen Dan.

  I used to think that only by breaking through the limits of the acquired realm with internal power could one enter the innate realm. However, a few days ago, I accidentally met a loose cultivator who actually broke through to the innate realm by strengthening his body. This makes me speculate that if spiritual power breaks through the limits of the acquired realm, it should also be possible to reach the innate realm.

  That Consecrated Pill was made by the three elders at my father's behest after I told him about this matter. It can greatly enhance one's spiritual power. After taking it, if your spiritual power breaks through the Acquired Realm and reaches the Innate Realm, perhaps the chronic illness in your Dantian may also improve. At that time, you can return to the family with a clear conscience.

  Your father has been thinking of you all these years, and he only has one son like you. At that time, he was forced by the family rules and the pressure of the elders to drive you out. I hope that one day you can rise up and return to the Long family with glory, and let those elders see that their actions back then were wrong!

  Yue'er is just a weak woman, her lifelong wish is to find a man she loves and get married. If big brother doesn't return to the Long family, Yue'er will have to take on the heavy responsibility of being the head of the clan, and her happiness for this life will be ruined. Yue'er is your own sister, can you bear to see me spend my life like this? I hope big brother can return soon, take on the heavy responsibility of being the head of the clan, and send Yue'er off to get married.

  There is another matter that must be stated, the Innate Realm is not as ordinary martial artists imagine it to be the pinnacle of martial arts. Within the Innate Realm, there are also distinctions between high and low. After Big Brother breaks through, he absolutely cannot be arrogant and fight recklessly, and must instead act with restraint.

  "Dragon Month Leaves Pen"

  Long Tian finished reading the letter and shook his head with a bitter smile, "Mei Er this little girl, writing such a letter, could it be that she has someone in mind and wants to get married quickly?"

  "That man is a cultivator, but he's a wandering cultivator without any family background. Moon Sister and I have talked about it before, and she also told me not to tell anyone else." Zhuge Ling'er blinked her big eyes at Long Tian.

  "No wonder this girl mentioned that cultivator in her letter, and even called him a friend......" Long Tian shook his head after hearing this, with a hint of dimness flashing across his eyes. "However, to let me, a born waste, become the clan leader, she's also overestimating me."

  "Long Tian is not a waste, I heard it from Yue Er sister before. Long Tian only used less than a year to reach the peak of Hou Tian, those people are just jealous of him." Zhuge Ling'er pouted and defended Long Tian.

  "What's the use of having a postnatal peak? The dantian is abnormal and can't convert the innate power. No matter how strong, it will only be a postnatal peak for life!" Long Tian let out a light sigh. "No different from trash!"

  "Brother Long Tian... you'll definitely get better..." Zhuge Ling'er said weakly beside him, looking at Long Tian's appearance made her feel uncomfortable in her heart.

  "It's nothing, so many years have passed......" Long Tian turned his head around, smiling at Zhuge Ling'er, and changed the subject, "This time coming to H City, what do you think of it?"

  "It's great, the scenery is beautiful, there are trees everywhere, and there are mountains and water. It's much better than our broken house!" Xue'er nodded hastily.

  "If your father knew you were talking like that, he'd have to spank you! If the magnificent Jade Mansion of the Zhuge family is considered a broken-down house, then all the houses under the sky would turn into outhouses!" Long Tian shook his head and laughed.

  "By the way, Long Tian Gege, before I came this time, I saw Ye Feng!" Zhuge Ling'er suddenly remembered something, in her opinion, Ye Feng should be Long Tian's only friend in this world.

  "Oh, is it because of the case?" Long Tian slightly furrowed his brow and asked seemingly casually.

  "Ah, yes! He's a big handsome guy!" Xuzhu Ling'er laughed.

  "Is it me who's handsome or him?" Long Tian slightly raised his eyebrows, waiting for Zhuge Ling'er's response.

  "This... that... you two are different types, it's hard to say..." Zhuge Ling'er hesitated for a long time, obviously the two of them had been struggling in her heart for a long time, but ultimately still couldn't come up with a result.

  "Hmm, it seems that I'm still on the same level as him. Being eight years older than him makes me feel quite pleased, looks like I haven't gotten old yet." Long Tian somewhat narcissistically picked up a mirror from beside him and tidied up his hair.

  "You're so narcissistic!" Zhuge Ling'er couldn't help but laugh and say.

  "What did Ye Feng say to you?" Long Tian put down the mirror and looked at Zhuge Ling'er.

  "He said you're a great person......" Zhuge Ling'er covered her mouth and smiled, "Said you have great courage, very generous......"

  "You're saying that what you've written in your notes is also like this?" Long Tian found it hard to accept the answer given by Zhuge Ling'er.

  "No, this is a private question for him!" Zhuge Ling'er stuck out her tongue.

  "You even asked me about this in private, which means your relationship is not ordinary!" A stone in Long Tian's heart finally fell off. Since Zhuge Ling'er said so, then the fact that Ye Feng was the murderer would definitely be passed off.

  "It's just occasional gossip, what's the big deal? But there is one thing that I find strange, these past few days you two seem to have had no phone contact. Didn't you used to call him out for dinner every week?" Zhuge Ling'er said up to this point, and sensed a hint of abnormality.

  "I've been pretty busy lately, and that kid seems to have some exams coming up soon, so I didn't bother calling him out!" Long Tian covered it up.

  "By the way, why did that Emperor Bar suddenly renovate? The boss also ran away without knowing where to go. I was about to go and take a look, after all, it's the most popular bar in H City..." Zhuge Ling'er complained.

  "I don't know about that, but Boss Liu is a capable person, who knows where he went?" Long Tian shook his head and smiled wryly. He knew that if someone with ulterior motives connected these events together, they might actually be able to uncover the cause and effect of this shooting case.

  "How much longer are you going to stay here?" Long Tian was secretly hoping that this little girl would leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

  "Let's leave in a few days, after all, this time is to deceive my father, and the time can't be too long. My letter and Dan medicine have been sent, and there's nothing else." Zhuge Ling'er looked somewhat disappointed.

  "Oh, anyway, I'll just find another chance to sneak out later. As long as your dad doesn't find out this time, there will be a next time. If he finds out, it'll be harder for me to sneak out in the future..." Long Tian deliberately urged her to hurry up and leave H City.

  "It seems so, I'd better head back a bit earlier tomorrow and come to H City next time!" Upon hearing this from Long Tian, Zhuge Ling'er thought it made sense and immediately decided on the return trip.

  "I'll send you out for now, have some more fun later, and I'll treat you to dinner!" Long Tian nodded and sent Zhuge Ling'er out.
