oughts.Lin Qi cleared his throat and said solemnly, "Junior brother, this tells us that if you want to go far, you must be devoted to the Dao and not be swayed by personal feelings."No matter how skil...:

Seeing these fellow disciples, who grew up together, become a cold corpse, many people felt a chill in their hearts.

From the moment one enters a sect, everyone knows that the path of cultivation grows lonelier with each step.

The scenery along the way is still unforgettable.

Most importantly!

They can die in the thorns of seeking immortality and asking the Dao, they can die in the fierce struggle for survival, but they should not die at the hands of a collective assassination by high-ranking cultivators when they are still seedlings.

In some aspects, this is the failure of the sect!

Lin Qi looked at the group of people crying sadly, so she could only wait quietly, occasionally glancing cautiously at her own ancestor.

The Grandmaster Taiji seemed to have guessed that Lin Qi had something to do, and was not in a hurry to return to the sect.

She just looked down at the joys and sorrows with a calm expression.

Those mournful cries seemed to have no effect on her emotions.

She exudes a calm and composed aura, as steady and balanced as the rotating Tai Chi diagram. She is both orderly and flexible, with strength concealed within her gentleness.

Lin Qi only stood by her side, not being affected at all. Her whole being was incredibly calm and peaceful.

After a while, when the group had calmed down, Lin Qi said softly, "Senior brothers and sisters, in Tianmo Palace, I could only do my best to help all the disciples from our various sects. I'm deeply sorry that I couldn't bring them back alive. I feel immense remorse and self-blame!"

Hearing Lin Qi's words of self-blame and apology, the disciples who were grieving in sadness were taken aback.

A man with a stern look had already raised his hand, striking out with a bolt of energy that lifted Lin Qi up.

"Lin Xiaodao, you have no need to blame yourself. The fact that you brought these disciples out of the Heavenly Demon Palace is already beyond our gratitude. After all, you had no obligation to do anything in the first place."

The disciples who were saved by Lin Qi also took the opportunity to bow to her.

"During this trip to the Heavenly Demon Palace, if it weren't for Lin Qi's protection, we would have been unable to survive. He first saved us from the assassins of the Bihai Pavilion and then, with his own strength, cleared all the formations, allowing us to escape the Heavenly Demon Palace alive!"

"Such great kindness and virtue, it is impossible to express my gratitude!"

Some disciples on the road who had harbored resentment towards Lin Qi, now also had to follow suit and bow in thanks.

Lin Qi looked at a crowd of people bowing to her, and she was very satisfied.

These people still recognize her life-saving grace, and that's good enough.

Of course, she still put on a humble facade.

Lin Qi quickly reached out and helped the person closest to her up.

Those who reacted quickly, faintly guessed something, bowed to Lin Qi, and smiled: "Lin Daoist not only saved my sect's disciples, but also the future of our sect."

"After I return to my sect, I will definitely report to the Sect Master and ask for credit for Lin Xiaodao!"

Xuan Tianzong's Ting Shui Daojun seemed to have a sudden realization.

Although it is said that one should not expect anything in return for kindness, that is a matter for Lin Xiaodao. We have received favors and how can we truly not think about repaying them

"Friend Lin, if there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to say it. We will do our best to find it for you. Even if we can't, at least we'll try our best to show you our kindness."

Lin Qi just likes people who are smart and insightful.

She also returned the greeting with a graceful poise, her face flushing slightly with a hint of shyness.

To be honest, throughout these years of breaking through the barriers, Lin Qi has spent all her accumulated formation talismans, medicinal pills, and spiritual objects. Now, she is truly broke… But it's just that this is a bit embarrassing, as if I'm repaying a favor in kind.

Lin Qi said this, and she herself was overwhelmed with emotion.

She doesn't even know when her acting became so superb.

"How is that possible This is exactly as it should be!"

Ting Sui Daojun clapped his hands once, making up his mind.

"I'll report this matter to the sect master upon my return. It wouldn't be right for Daoist Lin to save someone and receive nothing in return, only leaving himself empty-handed."

Other heads of sects also chimed in.

Taijidaojun remained relatively calm, but instead, Jian'an Zun and Guanxuandaojun couldn't help but blush with embarrassment.

I've never seen someone so brazen and condescending when demanding payment.

Lin Qi looks innocent and well-behaved, but she's actually quite thick-skinned.

Heart black.

As the discussion was drawing to a close, Lin Qi brought up another matter.

"Xuan Tianzong's Zhe Yuan Daoist friend protected me from an attack and saved my life. My gratitude to him is boundless, I implore Ting Sui Daojun not to hold Zhe Yuan Daoist accountable."

Although Ting Sui Daojun was well-cultivated, even he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth at this moment.

Lin Qi means, favors are exchanged for heaven and earth treasures, calculated per person

Even though the Daoist Master Ting Sui lived for several hundred years, he rarely encountered a cultivator who was so straightforward in demanding things.

Her eyes swept past Taiji Venerable and landed on Lin Qi's pale face, flushed with a mixture of shyness and pride.

But I couldn't help but smile inwardly.

"I will definitely report this matter to the sect master."

Being stared at by a group of people with diverse expressions, is Lin Qi nervous

She wasn't nervous at all.

She saved people and paid the price, why can't she get something in return!

She's not exactly a saint, and with nowhere to use her abilities, it would truly take everything she has to save everyone in the world.

She didn't even think about keeping this kindness, waiting for a chance to use it in the future.

Remember this: grace is only true if it is remembered.

After leaving the Heavenly Demon Palace, Lin Qi was repeatedly harassed by the master of Qingyun Pavilion and Elder He Yuan. Besides Zhe Yuan and Ye Shijie, who stood up to speak for her

At that moment, Lin Qi knew that this so-called life-saving grace was probably thinner than paper in the hearts of these people.

Of course, there were also some who harbored gratitude for her kindness and wanted to speak up in her defense, but they were suppressed by their fellow disciples or masters.

But Lin Qi doesn't care about this kindness.

Instead of getting entangled later, it's better to settle things now and clearly define the terms of our relationship. This way, she can feel at ease.

With these responses, Lin Qi happily returned to her ancestor's side.

Watching as families prepared to leave, Guan Xuan Daojun of Tian Yi Zong was also counting the number of people, preparing to lead them back to the sect.

Lin Qi stood beside the ancestor of Taiji, and whispered, "Ancestor, do you think what I did was inappropriate"

The Supreme Being of Taiji chuckled and looked at her, asking rhetorically, "Inappropriate Where is it inappropriate"

Lin Qi hesitated for a moment before replying, "Seeking revenge out of gratitude"

So, do you feel like you're taking revenge

Lin Qi shook her head obediently and frankly said, "I didn't save them out of kindness. I had my own motives for doing so."

Since you have a purpose, you act accordingly. Why do you ask if it's inappropriate

Lin Qi was taken aback. "I'm afraid the ancestor would find my disciple too worldly and shameless. After all, few people ask for payment after saving someone."

Taiji Daojun chuckled and shook his head, reaching out to pat Lin Qi's head.

Since you don't care what others think, why would you mind my opinion

"Just keep it to yourself what you're going to do."

A palm-sized clump of emerald foliage brushed past Lin Qi's head from above, a surge of pure and clean spiritual energy madly pouring into her body.

Lin Qi still vaguely felt that her muddled and heavy brain suddenly woke up and became bright, as if she had been injected with a stimulant.

Lin Qi was slightly surprised, "Ancestor, what is this"

Taijidaojun held a sprig of leaves between his fingertips and offered it to Lin Qi.more, and with an inviting gesture, motioned for Lin Qi to follow.Lin Qi didn't want to make things difficult for others, so she followed along. "Where are we going""This is where the guests of the Sw...
