Chapter 1539: Chapter 639: Mutual Probing, Guest at the Wang Family

Li Yunjing smiled faintly: "It’s just that my origins are somewhat different. It’s better if Fellow Daoist Wang does not know."

"I was being abrupt."

Wang Tianba’s heart shuddered, and he quickly forced a smile, yet he was extremely curious about Li Yunjing’s origins.

The younger generation of the clan reported Li Yunjing’s situation in detail. He had concerns and dared not act rashly.

Wang Tianba couldn’t discern the depth of Li Yunjing’s cultivation.

A mature and steady approach naturally was to treat him well and not turn hostile easily. Otherwise, if you hit a snake and it doesn’t die, there’ll be endless troubles.

He was the patriarch of the clan, not a loose cultivator, with a family large and small, totaling hundreds of thousands.

If they really offended a Nascent Soul Realm Master, then the trouble would be significant.

If a Nascent Soul Realm Master shamelessly launched surprise attacks everywhere and sparred with you for decades, everyone below might end up dead.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, let alone a Nascent Soul Realm Master, even a regular Golden Core Realm Cultivator was not someone one would want to offend unto death.

Such individuals had too great a lethality against low-tier cultivators.

Soon, the crowd arrived at a majestic mansion.

The entire mansion covered dozens of miles in radius!

Above the tall gateway, the two gilded characters "Prince’s Mansion" shone brightly, and two rows of Foundation Establishment Stage guards stood before the gate, saluting upon seeing the patriarch return.

Entering the mansion, Wang Tianba personally led Li Yunjing and his two companions to a secluded courtyard: "Fellow Daoist, please rest here for the time being. Should you need anything, don’t hesitate to ask."

Li Yunjing glanced around. This courtyard was elegantly arranged, and it was full of spiritual energy, clearly meant for hosting distinguished guests.

"Not bad."

Li Yunjing nodded, "Fellow Daoist Wang is very considerate. I, Mr. Li, will surely repay this kindness in the future!"

"You’re too kind!"

Wang Tianba laughed heartily, "We are fellow cultivators. If Fellow Daoist encounters trouble, I will certainly help where I can!"

Li Yunjing gave a slight nod, exchanged a few pleasantries with the other, and then said he needed to rest.

"I won’t disturb Fellow Daoist’s recuperation."

Wang Tianba clearly knew that the other party was injured and anxious to heal, so naturally, he wouldn’t stay here tactlessly and disturb him.

After Wang Tianba departed, Li Yunjing immediately set up a soundproof barrier and even used the remaining array plate to modify the arrays within the estate.

"Husband, the Wang Family’s change in attitude is too swift; there might be deception."

After Li Yunjing restructured the estate, Zhao Qi said worriedly.

"That Wang Tianba appears respectful, but his gaze is shifting. We need to be more cautious."

Su Muqing also frowned.

"I have it in mind."

Li Yunjing sat cross-legged, took out a Healing Pill, and swallowed it: "A Nascent Soul Realm Master cannot harm me!"

Just then, footsteps sounded outside the courtyard.

Li Yunjing scanned with his divine sense and discovered several maids were bringing spirit fruits and celestial brews.

"Senior, the patriarch ordered the servants to deliver some humble gifts."

The leading maid called respectfully.

Li Yunjing pointed a finger, and the restrictions near the courtyard gate all vanished from sight. Only then did he say calmly, "Come in."

The maids entered in single file, placing various rare spirit fruits and fine brews on the table.

Li Yunjing noticed that when one maid put down a wine jug, her fingers trembled slightly, and her eyes were somewhat evasive.

"Interesting..."

Li Yunjing chuckled inwardly but pretended not to notice.

After the maids retreated, Su Muqing immediately inspected the dishes and drinks: "There is no hidden malice!"

"They wouldn’t dare!"

Li Yunjing responded, "However, one of the maids had a rather high cultivation, at the half-step Nascent Soul Realm. Such a person becoming a maid is quite intriguing."

"They’re testing you!"

Zhao Qi’s expression changed drastically, and she shouted coldly.

"As expected."

Li Yunjing said disdainfully, "If I had no strength left, naturally, I would be their must-kill target! But since I still have strength, they won’t dare to act rashly!"

His eyes flashed with a cold light, and he already harbored murderous intent.

Since the Wang Family harbored malicious intent, they shouldn’t blame him for being ruthless.

"You should just follow the routine and live here for a period!"

Li Yunjing looked at the two women, instructing, "There’s no need to be timid. I am your backing, enough to hold the scene!"

After instructing, Li Yunjing entered the depths of the courtyard to a quiet chamber alone.

He laid down a triple restriction with a wave of his hand to ensure no one could spy on him, then sat cross-legged and began to focus on healing.

In the quiet chamber, Li Yunjing took out several bottles of elixirs and lined them up one by one.

He first took a Nine Heavens Thunder Essence Pill to replenish the Thunder Skill power in his body.

After operating through one grand circulation, he took out a Purple Mansion Condensing Essence Pill and a Profound Origin Gathering Spirit Pill, which he then consumed.

These two types of elixirs, besides aiding qi cultivation, also have healing properties that make them far more effective than the Healing Pill he had.

Three days later, when Li Yunjing’s external injuries had somewhat recovered.

Li Yunjing then took the Nourishing Spirit Pill and the Nine Revolutions Profound Yin Pill to adjust his spiritual state.

These two types of elixirs melted as soon as they entered the mouth, turning into a warm stream that flowed to the brain, and his head immediately became much clearer.

The whole person appeared much more spirited than before.

"The injuries are more severe than expected..."

Li Yunjing examined himself inwardly and found multiple hidden injuries in his meridians, especially near his dantian, where a cold mana was still corroding his foundation.

Being ambushed by a Nascent Soul Realm Master’s palm was by no means easy to recover from.

He snorted coldly, formed a seal with both hands, and began to operate the Shenxiao Dao.

A faint thunder light appeared around him, and the mana within him surged like a river, starting to erode that foreign mana bit by bit.

Seven days passed, and the spiritual energy in the quiet chamber had become so dense that it turned into a mist.

Li Yunjing’s injuries had healed seventy percent, but the most critical piece of sinister mana remained difficult to eradicate.
