Immortality Cultivation: I Farm in the System Space

"Forget it." "Let's see what they really want to do first." There was nothing of value in Lin Jing's house, not even the Pill Furnace, which was still stored in the System Space, so he let them toss his place as they pleased. The most important thing was to see what their true purpose was. If they posed a threat to him, he would have to find a way to eliminate them both. And so, Lin Jing watched as the two intruders entered his house. "Big brother, no one's here." Zhang Lin, who had burst into the house, quickly scanned the room and then spoke in a low voice. Zhang Sen hurriedly replied, "Never mind that for now, finding the Spirit Stones is what's important." The two then began searching the house. Although it was night, their vision wasn't greatly affected since they were mid-stage Qi Refinement cultivators. Before long, they had turned the entire house upside down, clothes and sundries strewn everywhere, leaving the place in a complete mess. "Nothing..." "Not even an Alchemy Furnace, how can this be?" Zhang Lin, observing the disarray, couldn't believe his eyes. Zhang Sen pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said to Zhang Lin, "Let's go." But Zhang Lin was reluctant, "It can't be, how can there be nothing?" "It's not that there's nothing, it's that all of his valuables are on him—he has a Storage Bag," Zhang Sen stated with conviction. "A Storage Bag...!" Zhang Lin exclaimed. "Yes, it's unexpected. This person has hidden himself so well, I didn't even notice. He's been on guard against us all along, and kept the fact that he owns a Storage Bag from us." Regret tinged Zhang Sen's voice. "So we just let it go?" Zhang Lin asked. "What else can we do? He's been wary of us all along, especially with what happened today—it's too bizarre. We didn't see him leave the house, yet he wasn't inside." "It's very likely that he used some other means to deceive us, just as when we first came in—we clearly felt his presence, but then it suddenly vanished." Having said this, Zhang Sen looked around the room again but noticed nothing unusual. "Let's go, we should leave this place first." "We'll go back first. That widow Ning Yue could return at any moment, and it's not safe for us here." "Later, when we go back, keep an eye on this place. If Ning Yue returns, we'll act as if today's events never happened, feigning ignorance." "But..." Zhang Sen looked out the window, his gaze cold: "If Lin Jing returns first, we won't hold back. We'll kill him directly. This youngster is too secretive; he gives me a bad feeling. We can't let him live." "You're right, big brother." After Zhang Lin responded, the two immediately scaled the wall and left. Before leaving, they made sure to use a spell to erase all traces of their presence. After the two had left, Lin Jing also exited Observation Mode. Inside the System Space, Lin Jing frowned, contemplating his next move. The danger had not yet passed, so he could not exit the System Space. "Those two have murderous intent toward me; they definitely can't be left alive," Lin Jing thought to himself, but he would have to plan carefully how to eliminate them. In fact, Lin Jing could also use Ning Yue or Wei Zhengqing to get rid of them. However, that would leave many matters unexplained. For instance, how Lin Jing knew about their conspiracy and that it was those two who had broken into his house. After all, they had been quite thorough, not leaving behind any clues. Lin Jing sighed: "It looks like I need to take action myself." Following that, Lin Jing did not leave but instead began to cultivate directly within the System Space. Fortunately, with the time accumulation feature and the lessons learned from past experiences, Lin Jing always reserved some time to enter the System Space. It was only twenty hours, but that was enough to resolve the crisis Lin Jing was currently facing. And Ning Yue and Wei Zhengqing were about to return, with the two of them around, the Zhang brothers certainly wouldn't dare to cause any trouble. Soon, Lin Jing, who was training inside the System Space, was awakened by the system's alert. "Warning! Someone has breached the alert perimeter, please host deal with it promptly." Lin Jing immediately entered Observation Mode and saw the person who had intruded into his yard. It was Wei Zhengqing and Ning Yue, and even Luo Luo was there. Wei Zhengqing walked into the house, looked at the mess inside, and his face turned ashen. Ning Yue also followed Wei Zhengqing into the house, frowning at the disorderly room. Luo Luo, holding Ning Yue's hand, had a worried look on her face and spoke softly, "Mother, what happened to Uncle Lin's home, is he okay?" "There's no smell of blood, it looks more like a break-in, or someone searching for something." "It's very likely that Brother Lin was not at home when the thieves came, otherwise, the house wouldn't be in such a mess." After observing for a while, Wei Zhengqing concluded. "Lin Daoyou is usually very low-key, he shouldn't have provoked anyone else, looking at this, could it really be a burglary?" After saying this, Ning Yue reassured Luo Luo. "It's okay, your Uncle Lin should be fine now." "Oh," Luo Luo responded. Seeing this, Lin Jing exited the Observation Mode. "It's also time to go out." Now that Ning Yue and Wei Zhengqing had returned, his safety was also assured, so it was time for him to go back. "System, activate Fixed Point Teleportation." It must be said that the Fixed Point Teleportation feature was indeed quite useful. Soon, Lin Jing confirmed the teleportation location, spent some Harvest Points, and teleported out. The place he chose to teleport to was not far from his home. Quickly, he returned home to find his front door wide open; he pretended to be oblivious and cried out in alarm as he rushed inside. Inside the house, Ning Yue and Wei Zhengqing were helping him clean up, and even Luo Luo was lending a hand. "Ning Daoyou, Brother Wei." "What happened here?" Lin Jing asked, looking stunned. "Uncle Lin, you're back," Luo Luo said as she ran over to Lin Jing. "Uncle Lin, did you know? A thief broke into your home and made a mess, we are helping you clean up." Wei Zhengqing asked Lin Jing, "Brother Lin, have you offended anyone recently?" Lin Jing was taken aback and replied, "No, you know, I seldom interact with others, so how could I have offended anyone?" After hearing this, Wei Zhengqing nodded. "Then it must have been a burglary." "It's fortunate you were not in the house, otherwise you might not have survived." "Although such incidents are not common on the outskirts of Fang Market, they are not unheard of." Ning Yue also said at this time, "Lin Daoyou, check if you have lost anything important." Lin Jing reassured, "Ning Daoyou needn't worry, all my belongings are in the Storage Bag, and I haven't kept anything valuable in the house." "That's good," Ning Yue breathed a sigh of relief. "It's also lucky you weren't at home, otherwise who knows what might have happened."
