They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent - They All Deeply Regretted It After I Became Indifferent chapter 62

“A fifth-grade golden core, that’s quite good.”

Lin Nantian actually felt some regret.

Lin Mo’s golden core was simply perfect; he had never seen a better one.

But the spiritual energy within the golden core was not full, probably due to rushing the core formation process.

Lin Nantian imagined a series of scenarios about Lin Mo at the sect.

In previous years, his little grandson seemed to always return in plain white clothes.

Presumably, his past life at the sect was not good.

Oppressed by his peers.

Leading to insufficient cultivation resources.

But with the sect’s competitive nature, he had no choice but to cultivate diligently, achieving such a pace of cultivation, and under pressure, formed his golden core with inadequate resources.

After forming the golden core, life got better, and this time he could return looking decent.

If only he had paid more attention to his grandson in earlier years, provided more cultivation resources, or not sent him to Qingling Sect as a disciple.

Perhaps his grandson’s achievements would not have been inferior to Lin Zhan’s at that time.

On Lin Mo’s side, he received a significant amount of regret value and was bewildered.

Seeing the apologetic look in Lin Nantian’s eyes before him, he was even more confused.

What’s going on? He hadn’t done anything yet, what had his grandfather imagined?

Seeing his father making frantic gestures at him.

Lin Mo then took out a pill from his storage ring and handed it to Lin Nantian: “Grandfather, this is the longevity gift I’ve prepared for you.”

“This is…” Lin Nantian’s hands trembled as he took the elixir handed to him by Lin Mo.

Being an alchemist himself, he only needed a slight sense to know that this was a longevity pill of no low quality.

The rest of the Lin family couldn’t quite make out what pill Lin Mo had produced.

But from Lin Nantian’s excited expression, it wasn’t hard to tell that this pill was no ordinary object.

Finally, Lin Nantian confirmed the quality of the longevity pill, his voice trembling, “My grandson, where did this fifth-grade longevity pill come from?”

Lin Mo wanted to admit outright that he had refined it himself, but Lin Zhan on the side was frantically signaling with his eyes.

He roughly understood his father’s intention.

After all, the Lin family did not appear as harmonious as it seemed on the surface.

The people of his father’s generation were all eyeing the position of the family head, waiting for Lin Nantian’s demise.

His father could now cultivate normally and would gradually start to gain more control over the Lin family, which had already infringed on the interests of many in the Lin family.

If he exposed his identity as a sixth-grade alchemist, their sense of crisis would be even greater, and they would surely plot against him or his family in secret.

It didn’t matter much for him, who spent most of his time at Qingling Sect, but his parents still had to live in the Lin family.

Especially his mother, Gu Ningxin, who was just an ordinary person unable to cultivate.

“Two years ago, while training outside, I happened to obtain it from the tomb of a predecessor.”

Lin Mo made up a reason, after all, in this world of cultivation, inheriting legacies from travels, cliff falls, or helping old men…

Such things were quite common, weren’t they?

Lin Nantian began to fill in the blanks with his own imagination.

He naturally knew the value of this fifth-grade longevity pill.

He could have sold the pill to exchange for more cultivation resources for himself, but his grandson did not do so.

Now, on his five-hundredth birthday, his grandson had given him this fifth-grade longevity pill…

Thinking of this, he truly felt he owed his grandson too much, he was indeed unworthy!

“Good, my grandson is blessed with deep fortune, truly a great blessing for our Lin family.”

Saying this, Lin Nantian ordered someone to bring a chair and place it next to his seat.

“My grandson, come sit by my side.”

Lin Mo was not one to dawdle, and so he sat down beside Lin Nantian.

He took in the expressions of the Lin family members below.

Envy, jealousy, and even that fleeting intent to kill…

Just as he had expected.

Lin Nantian, as if struck by a thought, leisurely said to the Lin family members present, “Since Lin Mo has returned this time, let him lead the team to the Demon Clan’s secret realm in a few days.”

Leading the team again?

Lin Mo originally wanted to refuse, but then he saw a middle-aged man stand up, excitedly saying, “Patriarch, the candidates for the secret realm were already confirmed yesterday. Isn’t it inappropriate to change them now?”

The speaker was Lin Xiao, the third elder of the Lin family.

He was the cousin of Lin Zhan, a distant relative from five generations back.

His agitation stemmed from the fact that his eldest grandson, Lin Zijian, had been confirmed just yesterday as the leader for this secret realm expedition of the demon race.

And this grandson of his was also the first among the young generation of the Lin family to step into the Golden Core realm.

Leading in the secret realm meant a greater chance to obtain the treasures or inheritances within.

Lin Zhan had also recovered, and now having his son Lin Mo lead the team would certainly cause significant trouble for Lin Zhan in the future contention for the family’s patriarch position.

Lin Nantian stroked his beard, pondering for a moment: “Lin Mo has lived in the Qingling Sect since he was young, and his experience outside far exceeds that of Lin Zijian. If he leads the team, the younger generation will be safer.”

Lin Mo hadn’t expected his grandfather to have such insight.

As the eldest senior brother, the original master was often arranged to lead the newcomers through their trials.

Moreover, the original master was diligent and studious, with experiences far surpassing his peers.

Additionally, the original master had quite the fortuitous encounters, having come across several large and small secret realms outside. If he were to lead, he could indeed avoid many dangers within the secret realm.

Lin Zijian himself was glaring at Lin Mo on the stage, very displeased.

Lin Tian was very adept at reading people’s expressions and had previously clashed with Lin Mo.

Upon learning that the other was in the Golden Core realm, his spine chilled.

Fortunately, last time Lin Changqiang held him back, otherwise he would have really ended up with broken arms and legs.

But now, he could take this chance to disgust him a bit, and he stood up to say, “Patriarch, we have always been more familiar with Cousin Zijian. He has led many expeditions over the years, and we recognize his strength. Compared to Lin Mo… Uncle, who has just returned, I feel Cousin Zijian is more suitable to lead us into the secret realm.”

Lin Tian’s words resonated with the younger members of the Lin family present.

Although many did not like Lin Tian, compared to Lin Mo, whom they had never seen or interacted with, they were more willing to trust Lin Zijian.

A smug smile appeared on Lin Zijian’s face.

The second elder, Lin Hai, also spoke up: “Since the younger generation has decided on Lin Zijian as their leader, we should not interfere with their decision. After all, this secret realm is an opportunity for them.”

This situation posed a dilemma for Lin Nantian.

Lin Mo was his own grandson, and now knowing his talent was so great, he had already decided in his heart to start compensating this grandson.

Having Lin Mo lead this expedition would be very good…

“Let’s give the leadership of this expedition to my nephew Zijian.”

Lin Mo smiled, but this smile, in Lin Zijian’s eyes, was particularly arrogant.

From noble mtl dot nete

What did he mean by ‘give’?

Such arrogance.

Both were at the early stage of the Golden Core, and not to mention leadership abilities, he practiced a technique of Earth-grade quality, while he heard that the Qingling Sect provided at most Xuan-grade techniques for their inner disciples. If it came to a fight, he was confident he could beat Lin Mo into a half-crippled state.

Just then, a butler came in to report, “Master, the people from the Jiang family and the Nangong family have arrived.”
