"This is okay. I can absorb it slowly. I don't have to use a whole spiritual crystal at once."
Lin Xue held Yang Tian's arm and explained softly: "Besides, even if the process is a bit painful, the result is good."
"I want to help you too."
She stared into Yang Tian's eyes seriously: "Even...even if I can't help you, I still want to reduce your burden and not become a burden to you."
"How can you be a burden to me?"
Yang Tian helplessly rubbed Lin Xue's hair: "It's my honor to be able to protect you. You have never been a burden."
"Then you promised me to use the spiritual crystal?"
Lin Xue's eyes lit up.
It wasn't like she couldn't get the spiritual crystal herself, but she still felt that she should communicate this matter with Yang Tian first.
She wanted Yang Tian to understand what she was doing.
"no."
Yang Tian still shook his head: "You don't have to worry, take your time, and doing it steadily is better than anything else."
"Why can't we use spiritual crystals to fight steadily?"
Lin Xue pouted: "Fangfang also improved with spiritual crystals, and her cultivation is very good now."
"That's what I say, but using things to improve your cultivation will inevitably..."
Before Yang Tian could finish speaking, Lin Xue interrupted him: "I don't care, I want to improve my cultivation!"
"If you don't agree, I can only use it secretly when you don't know about it. When the time comes, without you watching over me, something might happen."
Lin Xue said pretending to be aggrieved.
Yang Tian: "..."
In the end, Yang Tian chose to compromise: "Okay, you can use spiritual crystals, but you can't directly absorb the whole one like they do, and slowly absorb the spiritual energy inside."
"Um."
Lin Xue nodded happily, kissed Yang Tian on the face, turned around and ran into the training room.
Yang Tian sighed helplessly.
Just when everyone in the mine was gathering momentum to improve their cultivation.
The six elders also approached Yang Tian and discussed buying a larger manor as their old residence.
After all, it's not like living in a mine all the time.
If we go home separately, the distance is too far, and we don't want to be part of the same family.
Yang Tian didn't have any objections to these formal things, just let the six elders take care of it.
After getting Yang Tian's affirmative answer, the elders got busy, choosing a place and structure.
The head of the Zhao family also went home and sorted out all the useful treasures at home, preparing to put them all in the new house. He also made his family's manor look presentable.
However.
A few days later, Elder Zhao suddenly received a call that his home had been attacked. The children who stayed at home were all injured, and the place where treasures were stored was burned down.
"I'll go back!"
Elder Zhao turned pale with anger and was trembling all over.
Those treasures he collected personally were all the property of the Zhao family!
"I'll go with you."
After hearing the news, Yang Tian quickly came to the elders' lounge and said to the angry Elder Zhao.
"That's fine."
Elder Li nodded: "Bring a few more people with you. If something happens, you will have enough manpower."
No one refused this proposal.
After all, what happened to the Zhao family now is already a wake-up call.
It means that people from first-class aristocratic families are going to take action.
Yang Tian chose the people who had gone to the secret realm with him before and returned to his hometown with Elder Zhao.
There were only a few people at home who were slightly injured and could still move for the time being.
"Have everyone else been sent to the hospital?"
Yang Tian asked with a cold face.
"Master, all the seriously injured ones were sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."
One of the disciples said in frustration.
They were still happy that their family could participate in the family promotion competition.
