Lin Jue was extremely excited at this time, and he kept glancing at Ji Ling with a triumphant expression on his face.
Meanwhile, Ji Ling craned his neck, staring dumbfounded at the two top-quality Cleansing Spirit Elixirs in Yan Mingâs hands.
He didnât notice Lin Jue at that moment, but even if he had, he probably wouldnât have been able to say anything.
After observing the two top-quality Cleansing Spirit Elixirs for a while, Ji Xiyue withdrew her gaze, turned to Lin Jing, and said,
âLin Daoyou, for this competition, itâs you who has won.â
âAbout the bet between us, when do you plan to settle it?â
Lin Jing turned his head to look at Ji Xiyue and then said,
âThe matter of the bet is not urgent right nowâ¦â
After speaking, Lin Jing turned his head again to Yan Ming and said,
âYan Daoyouâ¦â
âWhen do you plan to have Yan Xing and Yan Yue, the two sisters, take the Elixir Medicine?â
After hearing this, Yan Ming replied directly to Lin Jing,
âNowâ¦â
âAfter waiting for so long and finally getting these top-quality Cleansing Spirit Elixirs, I donât want to wait another moment, of course nowâ¦â
Having said that, Yan Ming carefully put away the two top-quality Cleansing Spirit Elixirs.
After storing the Elixir Medicine, Yan Ming looked up at Lin Jing again and said earnestly,
âLin Daoyou, I wonât say much elseâ¦â
âFrom now on, no matter what difficulties you encounter, just let us know, and Spirit Rock Island will definitely give its full support.â
Having finished speaking.
Yan Ming bade farewell to the others, took the Elixir Medicine, and went to find the Yan sisters.
And at this place, only Lin Jing and his three companions were left, as well as Ji Xiyue and her nephewâ¦
After Yan Ming had left, Lin Jing looked at Ji Xiyue and asked,
âJi Daoyouâ¦â
âIs it convenient for you now?â
Ji Xiyue looked at Lin Jing with a smile and said,
âLin Daoyou, are you planning to settle the bet now?â
Lin Jing nodded and said,
âYesâ¦â
Ji Xiyue nodded and then said,
âOf courseâ¦â
Following that.
Lin Jing said to Lin Jue and the other,
âYou two, go back first!â
Lin Jue and Ye Yun didnât waste any words and directly left the place.
After the two had left, Ji Xiyue also convinced Ji Ling to go back.
After everyone had left, Ji Xiyue spoke to Lin Jing,
âFollow meâ¦â
Lin Jing nodded and then followed Ji Xiyue to the same hillside where they had talked last time.
Once they arrived there, Ji Xiyue spoke directly to Lin Jing,
âItâs quieter here, Lin Daoyou. Whatever you want to ask, you can ask directly now.â@@novelbin@@
Lin Jing looked at Ji Xiyue in front of him, who didnât seem at all frustrated by losing the competition, but rather was looking at him with interest.
Lin Jing, seeing Ji Xiyueâs demeanor, had a thought and then suddenly said,
âWhen I ask questions, you wonât just make up answers to fool me, right?â
âIf thatâs the case, then there wouldnât be any point in me asking you questions.â
Ji Xiyue was taken aback by Lin Jingâs sudden commentâ¦
After coming to her senses, Ji Xiyue was quite annoyed and sharply said,
âWhat do you take me for? Am I that kind of person?â
âAsk or not, itâs up to you. If you donât ask, then Iâm leaving!â
Seeing Ji Xiyueâs reaction, Lin Jing knew she must definitely have her reasons, so she would likely not deceive him.
Therefore, Lin Jing quickly said with a smile,
âIâll askâ¦â
âOf course, I want to ask.â
âI just spoke out of turn just now, I hope Ji Daoyou wonât mind.â
Afterward.
Lin Jing thought for a moment and then directly said,
âMy first question isâ¦â
âJi Daoyou, how did you find out my identity?â
Ji Xiyue looked at Lin Jing, blinked, and asked,
âYou meanâ¦â
âYour identity as the descendant of the Lin Family?â
Lin Jing nodded.
Ji Xiyue then laughed, a very happy laugh,
âWellâ¦â
âThat was, of course, a guess!â
âAlright, the first question is answered, letâs move on to the second question.â
After hearing this, Lin Jingâs face instantly darkened, and he turned to walk down the hill.
Seeing Lin Jingâs reaction, Ji Xiyue hurriedly called out to him,
âLin Daoyouâ¦â
âYou have two more questions, donât you want to ask them?â
Lin Jing stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said directly,
âJi Daoyou, you should know what I want to askâ¦â
âIf youâre going to take this attitude, then thereâs no point in asking this question!â
After Lin Jing spoke, Ji Xiyue shook her head with a sigh of helplessness,
âSighâ¦â
âItâs really not easy to fool youâ¦â
Having said that, Ji Xiyue spoke again to Lin Jing,
âLin Daoyou, come backâ¦â
âI will tell you everything you want to know.â
Lin Jingâs expression eased considerably upon hearing Ji Xiyueâs words, and then he walked back.
Next, Lin Jing looked up again, waiting for Ji Xiyue to speak.
It had to be said, Ji Xiyue was very beautiful, even exuding a dignified and elegant aura.
However, from her behavior, it was clear that her temperament was quite contrary to her appearance.
At this point, Ji Xiyue put on a serious face, which made her look much more serious, and then she said to Lin Jing,
âActuallyâ¦
âBefore this, I was fortunate enough to have come across a fragment of an alchemy tome, which is a legacy of an Ancient Alchemy Path family. Although the alchemical techniques in it were incomplete and no longer practicable, there are still some valuable inheritances within, which have remained.â
âSo, is it that you found out about my identity during the time Lin Jue was concocting the Elixir Medicine, through that incomplete alchemy tome?â Lin Jing then asked.
Ji Xiyue nodded and continued,
âActually, when Lin Jue first concocted the Elixir Medicine, I was already suspicious of your identities, but I was not yet certain.â
