The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 709: Chapter 705: Dinner Party (Sixth Update!)

Magma Pool beneath the valley floor.

The fire spiritual energy and Yin Qi here had already become thin.

All of it had been absorbed by Lin Tian.

Beside the Magma Pool, the Earthfire Stones that had once piled up like a small hillock had also been reduced to a scattering of pale red shattered stones.

Such massive spiritual energy had been completely absorbed by Lin Tian, yet his cultivation hadn’t improved in the slightest.

It was all absorbed by the second black Dao Platform.

But that damn Dao Platform, still the size of a nail, hadn’t grown at all despite absorbing such tremendous energy.

“It seems I’ll still need to seek out more cultivation resources, and as for Spirit Stones, I shouldn’t use them lightly!”

Lin Tian stood up from where he was, shook his head helplessly, and sighed softly.

However, upon standing, Lin Tian subconsciously activated the Nine-Turned Three Life Technique, and noticed that the black Dao Platform inside him trembled slightly, releasing an incredibly terrifying aura.

“This Dao Platform seems extraordinary! Although there’s no substantial increase in cultivation, there’s been a slight change in strength. Before this, the Dao Platform never quivered under my influence…”

Seeing the situation within him, Lin Tian was overjoyed and couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

The lack of advancement in cultivation was negligible since there was a slight increase in strength.

This made Lin Tian quite optimistic about the black Dao Platform within him.

If the black Dao Platform were to erupt completely, how much would his strength increase?

Lin Tian pondered silently, and seeing that there was nothing else in this place, he left the Magma Pool and climbed up to the valley.

It was already broad daylight in the valley, and the sun was still hanging on the eastern horizon, indicating it was probably the next day already.

At that moment, Nie Xingchen and others were still sitting in meditation within the valley, surrounded only by a few remains of shattered rocks.

Hearing the noise, they all immediately became alert.

“Greetings to the senior!”

Nie Xingchen and the others stood up and respectfully bowed.

Lin Tian looked around and asked, “Is it the second day?”

“Back to senior, it is the second day!”

Nie Xingchen bowed slightly and responded.

The night had passed in the blink of an eye!

Lin Tian sighed to himself, then said to them, “I should be going now, take care of yourselves!”

After speaking, Lin Tian did not wait for a response and took a step, leaving the valley, heading swiftly towards the south.

The southern part of Xiangjiang Province happened to border Guixi Province, and it wasn’t far, so Lin Tian couldn’t be bothered with taking a vehicle.

He arrived at a desolate mountain with no one around, preparing to return by flying sword.

But the mobile phone rang, it was Xu Tangge calling.

“Lin Tian, we were very worried with no calls for so long, is everything alright?”

On the other end of the call, Xu Tangge looked at the connected call, clearly relieved.

“Things are almost sorted! I’ll be heading to Yanjing soon!”

Lin Tian pondered slightly, thinking about matters with Shu Yi and felt a bit guilty, so he changed the subject, “Is everything settled over there? Are my parents adapting well?”

“They’re all doing well; they’ve been exploring the scenic spots around Yanjing recently!”

Xu Tangge spoke with excitement, but then hesitated before continuing, “It’s just that, uncle and aunt wanted… wanted to return to the family. They went to both the Lin and Xiao Families but… were denied entry. They said you need to come first and admit your mistakes together…”

Upon hearing that his parents had been unfairly treated, Lin Tian’s eyes turned cold, and he took a deep breath and said coldly, “You guys just stay in the house you found for now. I’ll be there by the end of August at the latest! Tang Ge, sorry, I’ve got something very important here! It’s about my… very, very important Cultivation Treasure!”

“I understand, just be careful!” Xu Tangge advised one last time before hanging up the phone.

Just then.

Lin Tian was about to put away his mobile phone when it rang again. It was Yan Yanxin calling.

But Lin Tian hung up immediately, waved his hand, and Evil like Xiaotian soared into the sky. He leaped into the air and rode his Flying Sword southward, breaking through the sky.

In less than two hours, Lin Tian avoided crowded areas and silently arrived at the front door of Que Mountain Villa.

Just as he was about to enter, he saw Yan Yanxin pouting and running out angrily.

When she reached the courtyard and saw Lin Tian outside, her beautiful eyes widened and she said discontentedly, “Hmph, why didn’t you answer my call? Were you up to something bad? Zhenzhen told me that a few days ago, you disappeared at Muaix Lake Ancient Artifact Original Stone Field, and no one could reach you on your phone!”

“I went to take care of some important matters!” Lin Tian thought about the pile of Spirit Stones in his Qiankun Bag and felt that his trip hadn’t been in vain. He scoffed and said, “Why did she call me? And have you been slacking off these past few days? How well have you been practicing the Devil God Technique I taught you? Show me now!”

“Hmph, I always finish what I start, and I’ve been working very hard!” Despite her apparent dissatisfaction with Lin Tian, Yan Yanxin obediently began to demonstrate her poses and techniques in the garden, saying to Lin Tian, “Zhenzhen said that last time her aunt had a birthday, a lot of people went, and they wanted to invite you, but you were nowhere to be found! It’s just a gathering of the famous; it’s not that interesting. This time, she’s planning to invite you to their house… specifically, there’s a family dinner at the Changsun house to celebrate her aunt’s birthday…”

“Is her aunt named Changsun Yinghan?”

Hearing Yan Yanxin mention Changsun Shuzhen’s aunt, Lin Tian recalled the enchanting qipao-clad woman he had seen at the banquet hosted by Kong Cheenfei in Bin City. He then said, “Besides, even if it’s a family gathering at her house, what do they want me there for?”

As he spoke, Lin Tian felt a stir of excitement. Changsun Shuzhen hastening him clearly meant Changsun Zihui had prompted her, and it must be about a lead on the Ancient Map Fragment.

Indeed.

Yan Yanxin wrinkled her nose and replied with a huff, “Hmph, who knows why she’s inviting you to the dinner. She said there’s something very important she wants to tell you. Haven’t you been using sweet words to charm that girl? Be careful, now that you know her aunt is Changsun Yinghan, don’t shoot yourself in the foot! You may be skilled, but can you fight against the entire Nine-Headed Mountain? It’s one of Liiu Yuan City’s biggest underground forces!”

“I can see you haven’t been slacking, and you’ve made pretty good progress!” Lin Tian complimented Yan Yanxin, then got up and returned to the villa, letting the little girl continue her Cultivation. He picked up his phone and directly called Changsun Zihui.

“Lin Tian, where have you run off to these past few days? My aunt’s birthday party, I wanted to invite you, but you were nowhere to be found!”

Upon receiving Lin Tian’s call, Changsun Zihui sounded extremely anxious and said, “Tomorrow night, we have a family dinner—can you come? Also, I told my aunt about your matter, didn’t mention your name, just told her someone highly skilled saved me! She said she wants to meet you too. The lead on the Ancient Map Fragment was found with my aunt’s help…”

The Ancient Map Fragment had a lead!

Lin Tian was inwardly delighted and promptly agreed.

The next day, in the evening, Lin Tian and Yan Yanxin exchanged greetings, and he left Que Mountain Villa, heading to a private luxurious residence in Liiu Yuan City—Nine-Headed Mountain!

Arriving by taxi on the tree-lined road halfway up the mountain, Changsun Zihui was already waiting there, looking lovely.

“Lin Tian, these past few days I thought something had happened to you. I was worried sick!” Changsun Zihui’s face showed her anxiety, and she stepped forward naturally, looping her arm through Lin Tian’s, pressing her ample chest firmly against him, causing it to flatten and deform.

Seeing Changsun Zihui’s action, Lin Tian was taken aback.

But soon, he let it go, because a luxury sports car came up from the bottom of the mountain and stopped nearby. A tall young man stepped out of the car.

Seeing Lin Tian and Changsun Zihui intimately linked, his expression turned extremely somber, his gaze icy as it fell on Lin Tian.

“That’s Mengg Zhao from the Mengg Family!” Changsun Zihui glanced at Lin Tian’s profile and whispered.
