Chapter 476: Chapter 476 - 173: Reunion with Yan Xing and Yan Yue

The middle-aged man also clasped his fist and responded to Lin Jing:

“Yan Ming…”

“Lin Daoyou, since you have come, it’s also a twist of fate. Why not come to the island for a chat? It’s a good opportunity to see how Xing’er and Yue’er, those two girls, are doing.”

Facing Yan Ming’s invitation, Lin Jing did not decline and nodded:

“Since Brother Yan has kindly invited me, I shall humbly accept.”

Yan Ming smiled and gestured with his hand to guide Lin Jing:

“Lin Daoyou, please…”

Afterward.

Yan Ming led the way in front, opening the Formation that protected the island. Together with Lin Jing, they arrived on Spirit Rock Island.

As soon as he set foot on Spirit Rock Island, Lin Jing felt the difference in this place.

The Spiritual Energy on the entire island was exceptionally rich.

Moreover, this richness was not caused by a Spirit Gathering Array; it was as if there was a Spirit Vein beneath Spirit Rock Island itself.

However, Lin Jing did not ask further.

After all, the reason Spirit Rock Island had been kept sealed off must have been due to its unique features.

……

In the interior of Spirit Rock Island, unlike other islands, it was covered with various Formations of different colors, covering almost the entire island area.

Only in the very center of the island was there a city and its surrounding areas that were not covered by the Formations.

Lin Jing followed Yan Ming to the mountain behind the central city.

No sooner had the two landed on the mountain than a person emerged from a courtyard on the mountaintop.

This person was an elderly man; though old, his stature was exceptionally robust, not at all like that of an old man.

With thick eyebrows and large eyes, and a face full of robust features, topped with a head of disheveled red hair, he exuded a rugged air.

Upon coming out, the elder immediately said to Yan Ming:

“Yan Ming, you said someone has broken onto the island, is it this youngster?”

While speaking, the elder sized up Lin Jing:

“Hmm…”

“His Cultivation level is quite good.”

Yan Ming then spoke up, introducing to Lin Jing:

“This is my dear friend, Qi Yan Zhenjun…”

“Qi Yan Zhenjun, he is a renowned Energy Refinement Master of the southern outer seas.”

After that, Yan Ming introduced Lin Jing to Qi Yan Zhenjun:

“This is the ‘Uncle Lin’ that Xing’er and Yue’er have been incessantly talking about…”

Hearing this, Qi Yan Zhenjun suddenly became interested, taking another look at Lin Jing, and said:

“Oh?”

“I often hear those two girls talk about Uncle Yan and Uncle Lin; so, it’s you…”

Lin Jing, with a smile on his face, replied:

“I have also heard of Qi Yan Zhenjun’s great reputation for a long time.”

At this time, Yan Ming also looked at Lin Jing, smiling, and said:

“I have already notified Xing’er and Yue’er just now. They will probably come over in a bit. I’m sure they will be very happy to see Lin Daoyou.”

Yan Ming had just come onto the island with Lin Jing. Lin Jing had not seen him make any move to inform Yan Xing and Yan Yue.

Presumably, it was after the two of them entered the island that he secretly notified the two girls.

The purpose, no doubt, was also to verify the authenticity of this ‘Uncle Lin’.

Lin Jing also thoroughly understood this.

Lin Jing then nodded, saying:

“Very well…”

“It’s been many years since I’ve seen those two girls; by now, they must have grown into young ladies.”

At this point, Lin Jing suddenly asked Yan Ming:

“Brother Yan…”

“I wonder, how is the Cultivation of Yan Xing and Yan Yue now?”

“Have they advanced to the Golden Core Stage?”

Yan Xing and Yan Yue, though daughters of Yan Ming, only had four-attribute Spiritual Roots, which were not of high quality.

Logically, with the conditions on Spirit Rock Island and the assistance of a Nascent Soul Cultivator, as long as their Spiritual Roots were not too poor, they should have become Golden Core Cultivators by now.

But those two little girls had such poor talent that Lin Jing wasn’t clear on what level of cultivation they’d achieved by now.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming couldn’t help but say:

“I took my two daughters, only to regret that their talents were too poor.”

“Even though I have exhausted all resources to train them, up to now, they have only reached the peak of Foundation Establishment and have not been able to enter the Golden Core Stage.”

Lin Jing nodded his head, showing understanding:

“Indeed…”

“With the talent of four attribute Spiritual Roots, it is indeed quite difficult to improve.”

Just at this moment, two beautiful figures walked into the courtyard from outside.

After the two of them came in, they directly greeted Yan Ming and Qi Yan with a bow:

“Daddy…”

“Grandpa Qi Yan…”

Lin Jing then looked at the two of them, although they had grown up and become two beautiful young ladies.

But it was not hard to recognize that they were the two little girls, Yan Xing and Yan Yue.

Yan Ming then addressed his two daughters, Yan Xing and Yan Yue:

“Xing’er, Yue’er…”

“Look, who is this?”

When Yan Xing and Yan Yue first came in, they directly looked at Yan Ming and Qi Yan.

To them, Lin Jing was just a friend of their father, and they didn’t take a closer look.

Thus, the two hadn’t recognized Lin Jing right away.

When they heard Yan Ming speak, they finally lifted their heads and looked towards Lin Jing.

When they looked at Lin Jing, they were initially confused. However, after observing more carefully, they suddenly realized…

Only to see Yan Xing’s eyes light up, as she exclaimed with surprise,

“It’s Uncle Lin…”

Yan Yue also came to her senses, saying:

“Uncle Lin, it really is you!”

Yan Ming, upon seeing his two daughters recognize this ‘Uncle Lin,’ also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Yan Ming explained to Lin Jing:

“When I notified them just now, I didn’t reveal your identity because I wanted to give you a surprise.”

“Lin Daoyou, you won’t mind, will you?”

Understanding Yan Ming’s intentions, Lin Jing chuckled and said:

“Yan Daoyou worries too much, of course, I won’t…”

Yan Ming then nodded and said:

“Good, good…”

After that, Yan Ming, with a stern face, said to Yan Xing and Yan Yue:

“You two, always talking about Uncle Lin, Uncle Yan…”

“Now, your Uncle Lin is right here, and yet it took you so long to recognize him…”

The two immediately tried to explain:

“It’s not that…”

“I remember that Uncle Lin didn’t look like this before.”

Yan Xing nodded in agreement and added:

“Right, Uncle Lin used to be more robust.”

“He even looked stronger than Grandpa Qi Yan.”

Yan Yue nodded again and again:

“Uncle Lin has changed so much, he’s gotten thinner and also more handsome.”

“So, that’s why at first my sister and I didn’t recognize him.”

Qi Yan’s build was indeed very robust compared to the average person, but for Lin Jing, who previously practiced Body Refining Techniques, it was still somewhat lacking…

It was understandable that the two young ladies didn’t recognize Lin Jing immediately.

Moreover, it had been nearly twenty years since Lin Jing had been apart from the two of them.

Thus, Lin Jing also helped to explain:

“Yan Daoyou…”

“By saying so, you’ve wronged them…”
