Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

"Whether you're willing or not, fellow Daoist, your word doesn't count!" Lin Shiming looked at Sanxiao Hermit with resolute eyes, yet he felt greatly assured inside.

Even though Sanxiao Hermit spoke with a righteous indignation, seemingly fearless,

In reality, his confidence was lacking.

Back then, True Person Jin Lei was incredibly domineering.

If it weren't for True Person Tianliu, Shiming being forced to open his Storage Bag or being questioned by an Inquiry Spirit Talisman would have been highly likely.

True Person Xu Ri simply couldn't have stopped it.

Shiming believed that if there were a True Person Jin Lei above, with sufficient benefits at stake, they would fear nobody at all.

Clearly, Sanxiao Hermit was not one such figure.

It was highly probable that he, just like Shiming as an outer island's master, didn't possess a core jade book like the one from the Sect's Jade Book or the Coral Alliance, so naturally, Shiming did not fear him.

However, there was still one thing he needed to confirm.

"Fellow Daoist, you might as well bring Lei Xuan out to speak. Lei Xuan is a cultivator married into the Lin Family, naturally, he is part of our family!" Lin Shiming continued speaking.

His voice was still cold and calm, but now anyone could feel a hint of indignation in Lin Shiming's words.

"What if Lei Xuan voluntarily joined our Golden Thunder Island?"

"Lei Xuan is not your Lin Family cultivator, if he can marry into your family once, naturally he could marry into our Golden Thunder Island again. Are you implying that our Golden Thunder Island's female cultivators are inferior to those of the Lin Family, or are you suggesting that your Lin Family can also offer a female cultivator with a Thunder Spirit Root?" Sanxiao Hermit's tone also grew increasingly assertive, binding himself to Golden Thunder Island as he spoke.

The answer from Lin Shiming was neither yes nor no.

Especially if the latter was secretly recording with a jade slip.

No matter Shiming's response, he would offend Golden Thunder Island, offending Jin Lei True Person!

"As I said before, whether you're willingly or not, you have no say on the matter!" Lin Shiming changed his approach and did not directly answer.

Internally, he was full of disdain, finding such an old monster to be quite troublesome.

However, now, the advantage lay with him, not with Sanxiao Hermit.

Without the courage to fight one-on-one, what more could be argued over?

Lin Shiming's hands also brought forth several banner-like objects, which he threw towards the Spirit Boat's surroundings, starting to set up a Formation.

This action made Sanxiao Hermit's eyes burn with rage.

This was provocation, and a prelude to starting a fight.

"Moreover, fellow Daoist, did you report this matter of joining forces with the master of Lianyun Island to True Person Xu Ri?" Lin Shiming didn't wait for Sanxiao Hermit to speak and pressed on with his questioning.

This question made Sanxiao Hermit's gaze shift evasively, afraid to answer.

While Shiming feared Golden Thunder Island, Sanxiao Hermit was equally fearful of True Person Xu Ri of Xu Ri Island.

Shiming felt increasingly assured in his heart.

Sanxiao Hermit's reaction indicated Shiming had guessed correctly, the transfer point must be Lianyun Island, and just as expected, Lianyun Island was probably covertly supported by Golden Thunder Island.

Thus, if Sanxiao Hermit disappeared, it would have nothing to do with Heavenly Phenomenon Island.

Linked to the system prompt, Sanxiao Hermit was acting on his own accord.

After all, with the beast tide imminent, even Jin Lei True Person had to be conscientious, and now was not the time for Xu Ri Island and Golden Thunder Island to declare war on each other.

With their status as True Persons, they would not care for Lei Xuan or a Superior Grade Thunder Spirit Stone Mine.

While Shiming deliberated, he also couldn't help but sigh internally.

Heavenly Phenomenon Island was infiltrated by Nine Dragon Island, Lianyun Island by Golden Thunder Island; True Person Xu Ri was indeed handling things well.

"Where I teleported from is none of your concern, my disciple, go and invite young friend Lei Xuan out!" Sanxiao Hermit subtly signaled a youth in purple by his side.

He gestured for the youth to enter the boat behind him.

Before long, Lei Xuan indeed appeared on the deck of the Spirit Boat.

Shiming also watched Lei Xuan, and the formation setup halted.

At this moment, Sanxiao Hermit wanted to use Lei Xuan's willingness to pressure the Lin Family.

And Shiming was all the more eager to witness during this coercion, the bond between Lei Xuan and the Lin Family.

At this time, he also realized that Golden Thunder Island's interest probably wasn't in Lei Xuan himself but in the Geng Metal Divine Thunder Secret Technique that Lei Xuan somehow leaked!

Lei Xuan withheld information from the Lin Family!

He hesitated at first, wondering why Sanxiao Hermit, if in possession of the Secret Technique, would still make a move on Lei Xuan; now it seemed the Secret Technique was in Lei Xuan's hands.

That could explain why they needed to take Lei Xuan away because even if the mine was discovered by Lei Xuan, Sanxiao Hermit could simply kill to silence any witnesses.

There wouldn't be such a drama, only with the Secret Technique, because of the Family Jade Book, it couldn't be deciphered.

At least Sanxiao Hermit didn't have such means.

But Shiming couldn't say anything, as when Lei Xuan married into the Lin Family, he provided Lin Shilei with a Profound Rank Cultivation Technique, the Purple Dawn Divine Thunder Sutra.

Back then, the Lin Family was merely a Foundation Establishment family, and the sentiment was quite significant!

The remaining Secret Technique, Lei Xuan chose not to reveal, and that was indeed Lei Xuan's own matter.

However, the point still remains, whether withholding treasures or not, it's crucial where one's heart lies with respect to the Lin Family.

Just as with Lin Shiming, he could seek a higher Cultivation Level and seek teachers afar.

But he could not remain indifferent upon seeing the Lin Family in peril.

That is the most fundamental point for the family, and it's also the most critical.

Thus, the direction today's events would take still depended on Lei Xuan.

"Young friend Lei Xuan, think carefully, was it I who coerced you? Besides providing Purple Mansion Jade Liquid and helping you establish a family, I can also introduce you to Jin Lei True Person, and I'm willing to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao for all this!" Sanxiao Hermit's words were very tempting indeed.

Not only could he assist Lei Xuan's breakthrough to the Purple Mansion stage, but he could also introduce him to Jin Lei True Person, and he was willing to swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao for it.

Even if Shiming were in that position, he might not suppress the temptation.

Moreover, seeing the stern face of the young person beside him, one could imagine that there must have been some intimidation on board the Spirit Boat.

At this moment, in front of the Spirit Boat, Shiming did not speak, nor did the other cultivators of the Lin Family.
