Chapter 513: Chapter 513: 60 Years of Cultivation

Lin Dong was unaware that Qiao Zilin had died, nor did he know that he had been slandered by Qiao Xixi.

That night, Lin Dong went to the female doctor’s rest room in Qiao Bing’s department to "apologize" to her.

It could only be said that after the seven orifices were opened, his remarkable perception had benefits in all aspects.

He could clearly hear if anyone was approaching and thus did not have to worry about being disturbed during his "apology."

Not until the sky was faintly bright in the early morning did Master Lin, Lin Dong, finally dress properly and leave.

As for Qiao Bing, she was very satisfied with Lin Dong’s "apology" from the previous night, forgiving him, and even praised him.

Telling him to keep up the good work for the future.

"The breathing method Lin Dong taught me is really useful. I barely slept last night, but I feel even more energetic today," Qiao Bing said.

In the morning, when Qiao Bing started her shift, she was brimming with energy, feeling more refreshed than if she had slept.

This delighted her tremendously, making her look forward to the next time even more.

It was the effect of the Nine Tripod Cauldrons symbol, which, although not as powerful as the Nine Shifts Longevity Scripture, was also an extremely heaven-defying cultivation method.

Qiao Bing had not been cultivating for long, but her physical constitution had already improved noticeably.

If she cultivated for another year or half, maybe she really could become a martial artist.

Truly, becoming a martial artist by "lying down"!

"So, it turns out that between a man and a woman, joy can be this instantaneous... No, tonight I must have Lin Dong come to ’apologize’ again," Qiao Bing thought to herself, her cheeks blushing slightly.

...

Lin Dong, unexpectedly, received a phone call while eating breakfast in the morning!

This phone call was actually from his master, Daoist Master Qing Shan.

"Master? Why are you calling me?"

This was genuinely surprising for Lin Dong.

An authoritative voice rang from the other side, "The Lunar New Year is approaching. Count the days and come back home for it."

Hearing this, Lin Dong nodded heavily.

The old man spent most of his years alone in the mountain Taoist temple, and Lin Dong could understand that sense of loneliness.

Even if he didn’t make this call, Lin Dong would have gone home for the Lunar New Year.

In this world, Lin Dong had long considered his master, Daoist Qing Shan, his closest relative.

During the Lunar New Year, he also wanted to reunite with his dearest relative.

"Mmh, Master, I’ll come back in a few days," Lin Dong nodded and said, hesitating briefly before adding, "When I come back for the Lunar New Year, I’ll bring someone with me."

The other side showed some surprise and laughingly said, "Is it that Qiao Family’s prospective daughter-in-law?"

Lin Dong shook his head, unsure of how to explain.

"Master, it’s too much to explain over the phone. Let’s wait until I come back for the Lunar New Year," Lin Dong said.

"Okay," Daoist Master Qing Shan nodded slightly, a hint of a smile creeping across his face on the other end of the phone.

He did not expect this rascal to bring a girlfriend home.

This year’s Lunar New Year would presumably be livelier, not as desolate as the past years.

"That... Master, I might bring two people back," Lin Dong paused, cleared his throat, and suddenly said.

Now that both Sister Bai Jue and Qiao Bing were his women, Lin Dong’s return home for the Lunar New Year, equivalent to visiting elder relatives, naturally meant bringing both of them.

Moreover, if he went home for the Lunar New Year and left Qiao Bing in Jianghai, he wouldn’t be at ease.

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s words, Daoist Master Qing Shan’s mouth twitched.

"You kid..."

This was clearly beyond his expectations. He wouldn’t be surprised if Lin Dong brought a girlfriend home.

But to bring two, who would have thought of that?

"Lin Dong, you are dating two women, do they know?" Daoist Master Qing Shan asked solemnly.

Lin Dong nodded: "They know."

Daoist Master Qing Shan was about to scold Lin Dong, but upon hearing this, he didn’t know what to say.

"Alright then."

Since neither of the two ladies had any objections, what could he, as a master, say?

After agreeing to go home for the Lunar New Year, Daoist Qing Shan chatted with Lin Dong for a while longer.

He inquired about Lin Dong’s progress with the Nine Shifts Longevity Scripture.

Learning that Lin Dong was almost reaching the ’Inner Qi Transformation’ Realm of the Fourth Stage of the Nine Shifts Longevity Scripture, he was quite impressed.

"Not bad, I thought you were so occupied with the glitz of the city that you’d forgotten to cultivate. Remember, no matter what, do not neglect your cultivation!" Daoist Master Qing Shan repeatedly admonished.

Lin Dong naturally nodded in agreement.

He always placed cultivating the Nine Shifts Longevity Scripture at the forefront.

Because he knew that everything he had now, and all that he might have in the future, depended on his strength.

If one wants to live as a person should, to live in an impressive manner, then one must possess strength.

After hanging up the phone, Daoist Master Qing Shan heaved a sigh in the Taoist temple.

"Kid, the biggest calamity in your life is the Peach Blossom Calamity. I hope you can evade your destiny and reach that ultimate peak," he said softly with his hands together, gazing at the ancestral grandmaster enshrined in the temple.

Sixty years of abiding by the Dao, accompanied by ancient Buddhas, passing the years.

"Sixty years of a Dao heart, able to cultivate non-desire, yet ultimately, unable to cultivate non-affection... Accepting a disciple is like raising a son."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Dong held his phone and spaced out for a moment.

Today’s call was indeed unexpected.

"Although the old man didn’t say it out loud, he must really miss me, otherwise, why would someone like him take the initiative to call me and ask me to return home for the Lunar New Year?" Lin Dong thought, feeling warmth in his heart.

This feeling is something that all wandering children could understand.

He might have never met his biological father, and his mother had passed away early, but Lin Dong felt that there was always a home he could return to.

That home was the Qing Shan observatory.

As the Lunar New Year approached, the thought of returning to that home gave travelers something to look forward to.

No matter how hard or tiring it was, it would be worth it.
