Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

"In fact, our surname is not Lin, but Yan..."

"Hundreds of years ago, the ancestor of the Yan family was a disciple of an immortal cultivator when he was still in the mortal world. Unfortunately, because he had no spiritual roots, he could only stay in the mortal world..."

"The dangers of the immortal world are far more terrible than we imagined, and they are more unscrupulous. In order to deal with the enemy, it is not surprising that they directly choose to attack their relatives and friends.

Even though our ancestor's master is very powerful, he cannot guarantee that everything will go smoothly.

Therefore, in order to ensure the longevity of the family, the ancestor left a will before his death, asking the descendants of the Yan family to hide their identities and migrate to various parts of Yue State, or even to other neighboring countries..."

"My Lin family is one of them. My ancestor was one of the many descendants of the Yan family's ancestor. The surname Lin had to be changed because of something that happened later..."

"And this house is actually where that immortal cultivator once lived in the mortal world. It was later left to our ancestor. It is considered the true ancestral land of our Yan family..."

"Normally, these secrets are only known by the family heads of previous generations. I also planned to tell only your eldest brother before I die. However, now that you are entering the world of immortal cultivation, that is another matter..."

"..."

In the study, after listening to his father's story, Lin Huang was shocked. It turned out that the Lin family had such a bizarre origin.

"Dad just said that something happened that year, which forced the family to change its name. What happened?"

"This is a long story." Father Lin sighed.
"For the cultivation of immortals, the heads of all generations have extremely complicated thoughts. They have yearning and awe. The world of cultivation is too dangerous. Once an accident occurs, not only will they lose their lives, but even the entire family will be affected. It is for this reason that the ancestors chose to disperse and migrate the clan members.

However, the temptation of cultivating immortals is too great, who can really refuse? Besides, the ancestor was originally a disciple of an immortal cultivator, and other branches, as well as my Lin family, all have related inheritances, which is the jade slip in your hand.

Under such conditions, the family heads of all generations naturally could not help but try, but unfortunately things did not go as they wished, spiritual roots were not so easy to appear, and they could only give up in the end.

Until more than a hundred years ago, a certain patriarch of the family, who was the only successful one, left alone to pursue the legendary world of immortal cultivation.

However, only a few years later, he returned in a miserable state, and then led his family to migrate again, from Yuanwu Kingdom in the north, all the way to this place.

It was at that time that the family changed its surname..."

"But are you in danger?" Lin Huang reacted instantly and asked seriously.

"It's been a long time, and I don't know much. I only know it from your grandfather, but I think it must be so, otherwise why would they migrate?" Father Lin nodded slightly and continued,

“In fact, we were lucky that time. Our family only lost the business that we had run in Yuanwu Country for many years, and there were no casualties. But even so, it was already very dangerous.

Therefore, the ancestors at that time directly chose to discard all the things related to immortal cultivation that they had obtained outside, so that the family members would no longer pursue the immortal path. "

"I see." Lin Huang suddenly realized something, but he asked again,
"Since all the related things have been discarded, what happened to the jade slip?"

“Perhaps because this jade slip was passed down from our ancestors, our ancestors did not throw it away with the other things, but simply hid it in the dry well.

Of course, these are just my guesses. Even your grandfather didn’t know the truth. It was when I was a child that I fell into a dry well by chance and discovered the jade slip.

At that time, I was as excited as you, and tried to practice immediately, but unfortunately there was no reaction at all. It showed that I did not have the legendary spiritual roots.

So, I simply put the jade slip back into the bottom of the well, thinking that it would be a good idea for my disciples to never touch anything from the world of immortal cultivation again.

However, things are unpredictable, who would have thought that you would also discover it..."

"Since you knew it a long time ago, why didn't you stop it?"

"Can I stop it?" Master Lin snorted coldly.
"That's immortality, how many people in the world can refuse it? Besides, I only found out later that the jade slip fell into your hands. At that time, you should have already started practicing. Even if I really stepped forward to stop you, would you agree? I'm afraid you would end up making the same choice as that ancestor and run away from home."

"This..." Lin Huang smiled awkwardly. He had to admit that his father knew him very well. If the other party had really tried to stop him, he would have had a 90% chance of running away.

"Okay, I have told you all the secrets of the family. Now there is one more important thing you need to know." Master Lin said again with a serious expression.

"You and the girl from the Wang family have been noticed by immortal cultivators. This is your fate. Your father will not stop you. Of course, I cannot stop you either. But since you have decided to enter the immortal cultivation world, your life and death in the future will depend on you.

We don't know whether the being who has taken a fancy to you is good or evil, and we also cannot predict in advance what kind of dangers you will encounter in the world of immortal cultivation in the future.

Therefore, just in case, once you two follow that immortal cultivator away, your father will immediately move the family again. As for where we are going, you don't need to know.

When you have cultivated successfully, if you can find us, then our fate has not yet come to an end. But if you cannot find us, then our fate has ended. From now on, we should accept our fate separately..."

"What..." Lin Huang was stunned when he heard his father's decisive words. He never thought that the other party would make such a decision.

Doesn’t that mean that this farewell might really be a farewell forever?

"You may think that I am too timid, but when it comes to the safety of our family, it is never too careful. Especially after the lesson from our ancestors, we must be more cautious.

This is the price you must pay if you want to cultivate immortality. Without us, you will have no worries at all. You can concentrate on cultivation in the future and perhaps achieve something in the future."

"Dad, I..." Lin Huang knew very well that although his father was making a fuss, it was the safest choice. He just couldn't accept it in his heart for the time being.

"What about the Wang family? Do you want to tell them about this?"

"Of course I have to say it, but it's just a reminder. The final choice is not something we can decide." Master Lin shook his head slightly and continued,
"It's settled. You still have three days left, so spend some time with your mother. Also, don't tell her about what we talked about today, so she doesn't worry."

"Don't worry, Dad. I know..." At this point, Lin Huang couldn't say anything more and could only nod in agreement.

……

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was three days later.

A few miles east of Jiayuan City, there is the edge of a dense forest in a relatively remote location. At this moment, all the people from the Lin family and the Wang family have gathered here, waiting patiently with a nervous look on their faces.

Those who came with them were the core members of the two families, only the parents and siblings of both sides, but even so, there were still a lot of people.

Everyone had different thoughts. In addition to reluctance, they could not help but feel a little envious, of course, mainly Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua's brothers and sisters. After all, it was cultivation, flying, immortality, and omnipotence, who could refuse it? Therefore, the brothers and sisters who followed both sides did not have other thoughts.

They all have the same parents. Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua have spiritual roots, so why can't they? What if they have a chance to be noticed by the immortal master?
The parents of both sides are naturally aware of these little thoughts, but it is difficult for them to stop anything and they can only let things take their course.

Time passed slowly as everyone was waiting, from before dawn until the red sun rose in the east, and the person they were waiting finally appeared.

At the end of the sky somewhere, I saw a medium-sized flying boat about ten feet long and cyan in color rushing towards me. In a blink of an eye, it flew close and hovered in the air.

There was a figure standing in front of the flying boat. It was Mo Juren. As for Ning'er and Han Yunzhi, they were still in the small green attic in the center and had no intention of showing up.

Everyone present were just mortals, and even the immortal cultivators had never seen one, let alone such a huge flying boat. The shock in their hearts was beyond words, and they all stood there in a daze for a moment.

Even so, it was because Mo Juren deliberately kept a low profile and used an ordinary small or medium-sized flying boat instead. Otherwise, if it was replaced with the Tianxuan Divine Boat, not to mention the people below, the entire Jiayuan City would be alarmed.

That would be inappropriate. It wouldn't be a big deal for me, but it would be bad if it attracted the attention of someone with ulterior motives and implicated these two families.

In fact, when he came here just now, he had already released his spiritual sense to investigate. There were no high-level cultivators within a radius of more than a thousand miles. Although there were some independent cultivators in the Qi training stage, they could be ignored.

"Greetings, senior!" The two heads of the Lin and Wang families had experienced much of the world and were in a good mood. They quickly came to their senses and bowed respectfully. Naturally, the other people around them did not dare to hesitate and also bowed with great respect after they reacted.

Mo Juren just nodded slightly but didn't say anything. His eyes swept across the crowd and finally stopped on a middle-aged man.

When he explored the Lin Mansion before, he already knew that this man was Lin Huang's father, the patriarch of the Lin family. The father and son looked similar, and also very similar to Yan Ge in the past.

It seems that the Lin family is undoubtedly the descendants of Yan Ge, but I don’t know why they changed their surname.

At this time, he had already restored his true appearance, but the other party did not show any strange expression when they met just now. This shows that even though the other party was a descendant of the Yan family, he did not recognize him.

Since this is the case, he gave up the idea of ​​recognizing the other party. It might be a better choice to forget each other from now on.

Putting aside his thoughts, Mo Juren looked directly at Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua and asked:

"After this separation, there will be no return date. Have you two thought about it?"

"We've made up our mind. We're willing to follow you." Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua nodded without hesitation.

"In that case, let's say goodbye for the last time. We'll leave later." Mo Juren nodded, then looked away and said no more.

Hearing this, Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua did not dare to hesitate and immediately turned around to talk quietly with their parents. However, the brothers and sisters on both sides saw that the senior just glanced at them and then ignored them.

For a moment, everyone was a little depressed. They didn't know whether it was because they didn't have the so-called spiritual roots, or because this senior didn't want to accept more disciples?
However, no matter how many doubts they had, they did not dare to ask. In the end, they could only comfort themselves that it would not be too late to ask them for help when their younger brother and sister had achieved success in their cultivation.

Lin Huang and Wang Yuehua did not dare to waste too much time. Besides, they had already said what they needed to say, so there was no need to repeat it. Therefore, they just said a few simple words and ended the conversation.

Seeing this scene, Mo Juren did not delay any longer. He waved his sleeves lightly, and a white light instantly enveloped the two of them, and they appeared directly on the deck.

Then, the flying boat turned into a beam of green light and flew away...

After a long time, the people from the Lin and Wang families on the ground reluctantly withdrew their gazes.

At this time, the head of the Lin family suddenly said:

"Brother Wang, are you free now? How about we go find a place to have a drink?"

"Brother Lin has invited me so kindly, so naturally I will respectfully obey your order."

After saying this, the two of them explained their situation to their families and then left together.

……

After leaving Jiayuan City, Mo Juren did not stop and drove the flying boat straight to Tianluo Kingdom.

During the flight, while Wang Yuehua was away, he also asked about Lin Huang's family situation. However, the other party only gave a brief introduction and did not mention the part he cared about.

I don't know if she really didn't know or was deliberately on guard against him.

Seeing this, Mo Juren was somewhat impressed by him. Although his aptitude was a little poor, he was mentally competent. As long as he was well trained, he would have a promising future.

Throughout history, there have been many cultivators with three spiritual roots who have broken through to the Jindan stage, but there are also quite a few of them, and all of them are people of strong character.

As for the period after the Jindan stage, and even the Yuanying stage, one can only leave it to fate.

Since the other party didn't want to say it, he simply didn't bother to ask anymore. What if he made the other party suspect that he had bad intentions, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
forget it!
He will make proper arrangements for him when he returns this time. He will grow up on his own and can let him handle anything on his own. He is too lazy to get involved.

Before they knew it, more than half a month had passed. The flying boat had already passed through the Kingdom of Jiang and the Kingdom of Cheqi and entered the territory of the Kingdom of Tianluo. The Qiling Mountains, where the Yuling Sect was located, happened to be at the westernmost end.

Therefore, it didn't take long for the flying boat to arrive in front of the mountain gate of Yuling Sect.

In the flash of light, Mo Juren instantly appeared on the deck, his eyes swept over the sect protection formation in front of him, and then he smiled.

At this time, Ning'er and Yunzhi also walked out of the cabin and slowly approached.

"Is this the Yuling Sect? It is indeed extraordinary. Whether in terms of scale or the surrounding spiritual environment, it is in no way inferior to the top sects in Xinghai." Mo Ning smiled brightly.

She was not complimenting, but was really a little surprised. You know, in the Chaos Star Sea, there are only a few top-level sects like the Wanfa Sect, but looking at the entire Tiannan, the number of top-level sects is far more than that.

"Tiannan is a place where humans are respected, and the population base is not comparable to that of Chaos Star Sea. It is normal for the number of top sects to be greater." Han Yunzhi smiled softly, and suddenly said with some emotion,

"After so many years, seeing everything in the sect again, it feels a bit strange." (End of this chapter)
