Xu Ran looked at Lin Qingyao's shadow on the ground and let out a sigh: "You... you're not a ghost?"

  Lin Qing's eyebrows furrowed, and this Xu Ran had an imagination that was a bit too rich. But thinking about it, if anyone else encountered such a thing, they would also find it hard to accept for the time being, after all, it was too contrary to reason.

  Lin Qingyao personally went to the kitchen, using the ingredients in the space to stir-fry two refreshing small dishes. Only then did she sit down and say to Xu Ran: "Listen to me explain slowly."

  Xu Ran's eyes widened as he listened to Lin Qingyao, and he opened his mouth in surprise, even forgetting to pick up dishes, and only ate rice.

  "Qingyao, are you saying...you're an immortal?" Xu Ran's tone was stuttering, not that he didn't believe it, but because he was shocked. After all, the unbelievable thing had already been placed in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

  Lin Qingyao sighed: "What kind of immortal am I? I said, we are just a group of people pursuing the Way of Heaven. But the Way of Heaven is so vague and elusive. Most people end up living an ordinary life."

  Although this is the case, it does not affect Xu Ran's admiration for Lin Qingyao.

  Lin Qingyao thought back and forth, but still decided to tell Xu Ran everything. Of course, she didn't mention the things about space or meeting by chance at the bottom of the cliff. Lin Qingyao had already understood that in this world, the only person worthy of trust was oneself.

  Xu Ran wanted to ask if he could cultivate immortality, but he knew that saying so would be out of place.

  Lin Qingyao gazed at Xu Ran's hesitant expression, knowing what he was thinking. However, she couldn't agree to it yet. She would wait and observe him some more. If Xu Ran remained the same person with a spiritual root, then she would pass on the Cloud Gate's techniques to him. After all, Yun Qingzi had also told her to revive Cloud Gate.

  She didn't expect this to happen, she raised a white-eyed wolf, so she made such a decision.

  Fortunately, Xu Ran was also a broad-minded person and soon came to his senses. He felt that he had already been very lucky to have met someone like Lin Qingyao, who had helped him so much. He was content with what he had.

  Suddenly, a flash of inspiration appeared in Xu Ran's mind, as if something had been triggered.

  "Qingyao, you said you're a cultivator... I have something on my mind that I don't know if I should tell you. This thing has been bottled up in my heart for a long time." Xu Ran said nervously, and just thinking about it made his back feel chilly.

  Lin Qingyao saw Xu Ran's anxious expression and also became serious: "Speak." She couldn't lead Xu Ran onto the path of immortality now, but she had to repay Xu Ran's kindness.

  "I...I..." Xuran looked around and then suddenly lowered his voice, mysteriously.

  "Qingyao, there's a ghost in this house!"

  Xu Ran's face suddenly turned pale as he spoke.

  Lin Qingyao suddenly lost her smile: "Xu Ran, what's wrong with you? What ghost is there?"

  Xu Ran said with a bitter face: "It was in the well in the backyard, do you still remember that I got sick for a while? It was because of that ghost!"

  Upon hearing this, Lin Qingyao became serious. She had known that Xu Ran was ill at the time, and the symptoms were indeed strange. At the time, she didn't think much of it, but today, after talking to Xu Ran, she recalled all sorts of abnormalities from back then.

  The backyard... Lin Qingyao's heart was racing, although she had already fainted at the time, but the black-clothed female cultivator's words, she still heard them clearly.

  Was there really a "ghost" in the backyard? Lin Qingyao knew, of course, that this world was not haunted by ghosts. So-called ghosts were just people with exceptionally strong spiritual awareness or cultivators who had begun to cultivate their spirits.

  All laws return to one, which is spiritual cultivation. Cultivating to the end is also to transcend the heavenly tribulation and ascend, which is the same as her.

  So Lin Qingyao was startled but didn't feel fearful.

  As for the backyard, she still had to go take a look.

  But before that, she still had something to do. No matter what was in the backyard, now that she had already practiced her Qi for six layers and could practice basic spells, she would never go empty-handed against a white blade.

  The inheritance of Yunmen's teachings, especially in terms of basic techniques, is somewhat fragmented and incomplete.

  At this time, Lin Qingyao thought of the old man selling books in the vegetable market. Now that she thinks about it, this old man should also be a person from the Cultivation Realm.

  She had been thinking of visiting him all along, but unfortunately, she was held back by various things. At the beginning of the school year, she couldn't be absent either. Now that she has time, she should go look for that old man.

  "Xu Ran, I have something to attend to for a bit, would you like to come with me? As for the matters in the backyard, I'm aware of them and will take care of it later." Lin Qingyao said to the young man wearing glasses who looked very honest.

  Xu Ran hastily swallowed a mouthful of rice: "I'm willing! Of course I'm willing!"

  Not to mention that Lin Qingyao has become beautiful now, going out with such a beauty is a matter of great pride. Even if we say that Lin Qingyao was ugly in the past, if she were to find herself and want to go out with her, she would still be willing!

  Lin Qingyao nodded: "So, I've wasted my time. You want to work hard and study, right? Then follow me, every day, I'll give you a salary of 200 yuan."

  Xu Ran is good to her, she has already suffered, so-called cause and effect, these should be what Xu Ran deserves. She also has a lot of money now, it's possible to give Xu Ran a lot of money at once, but she doesn't want to do that. Xu Ran's temperament, she still knows some things, if the money given is too much, he not only won't accept it, but will also feel hurt in his self-esteem.

  Two hundred yuan, a small worker on the construction site, a slightly higher salary is about this much, although it's a bit high, but still acceptable.

  Xu Ran gazed at the beautiful girl in front of him, looking like a rare and exquisite orchid, and said in surprise: "Qing Yao, this is too much! So much money! Even if I go out to work, I won't be able to earn this much in a day. Besides, being able to accompany you is my honor."

  Lin Qingyao raised an eyebrow: "If you want to follow me and see some things, then take this money. Moreover... following me, although the salary is a bit higher, but sometimes it's a matter of life and death."

  "This... Qingyao..." Xu Ran was still very embarrassed.

  "If you're worried about the danger, then forget it." Lin Qingyao deliberately cooled her face, but a smile was hidden in her eyebrows and eyes. How could she not know that Xu Ran had a burning curiosity about the cultivation world? At this time, he probably wouldn't refuse.

  "No, no, I didn't mean it that way... Ah, fine, I'll follow you." Xu Ran finally agreed.
