Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

...

Qingtao City, at a bustling street corner, an old vendor selling candied haws incessantly waved his arms and shouted to attract customers.

A chubby child around ten stumbled, with copper coins covered in sweat clutched in his hand, eagerly burst through the crowd.

"Old Nine, I'll buy ten candied haws!" the child spread his hands, revealing ten copper coins, his face full of anticipation.

"Old Nine, just give me nine, keep one for yourself. The Immortal Master from Fangmu Mountain said I can go to Fangmu Mountain for Immortal Cultivation. Who knows, I might even get to eat immortal haws in the future!"

The child took the nine gourds, and then boasted proudly.

"When the time comes, I'll share with Old Nine too, let you taste the flavor of immortal haws!"

"Haha, then I wish little Tiger becomes an Immortal Master in advance!" The child's declaration also led many passersby on the street to crowd around and offer their congratulations.

Next to them, a scholarly-looking young man escorted a woman veiled in light gauze.

The scholarly young man nodded in appreciation to himself, as this was the first time he had seen someone pursue Immortal Cultivation for the sake of eating.

Though it was neither as grand as cultivating for eternal life nor as noble as cultivating for the sake of the people,

the child at least had a true and steadfast Tao heart from the beginning!

The young man stepped forward, congratulated like the others, and took out a jade pendant, placing it in the chubby-faced child's hand.

"Little Tiger, Immortal Master, if fate allows, may I request an immortal gourd from you in the future?"

"Sure!" The child took the jade pendant and then nodded without even thinking, gesturing halfway through, before trying to return the jade pendant to the young man.

"Big brother, when I have the immortal gourds, then I'll take your jade!"

But the young man, again escorting the woman with gauze, melded into the crowd, and the child, seeking to follow, had already lost sight of them.

...

At the edge of Qingtao City, in front of a steamed bun shop, rising steam wafted down much of the street.

In front of the large street, a long queue was forming.

The queue was large, and it stood out on the long street, comprised mostly of tender, raggedly dressed children with empty hands, even their grimy hands would leave black marks on the buns like wheat patterns.

The couple selling the steamed buns were extremely proficient, and each time they handed out a bun, they eagerly shouted:

"Eat the buns while they're hot, they taste better!"

Next to the bun shop was a cash box.

Adults would throw in two copper coins after receiving their buns, while children could take them for free.

The scholarly young man and the woman in gossamer joined the queue with some interest, and the young man patted the shoulder of the man in front of him.

"Fellow sir, could you tell me why the children get buns for free from this couple?"

"Oh, you're from out of town, huh? Their child is an Immortal Master, and even since he was young, he was always kind and charitable. The couple has kept up the virtue of their Immortal Master child by helping the children in town!" The man explained with a smile.

"They've been doing this for over ten years now, so their bun shop has always been doing well!"

"Their child must also be a good Immortal Master!"

After speaking, the queue moved and it was the man's turn; he turned around, deftly took two steamed buns, put down two copper coins, and the couple still reminded him with a smile.

But the man went to the distance and gave the two steamed buns to a child of about six or seven years old, then disappeared at the end of the street.

"Eat the buns while they're hot, they taste better!" Now it was the scholarly young man and the gossamer-veiled woman's turn.

The owner couple still wore their smiles, as the young man also smilingly took the bun, laid down four copper coins, and left the street.

Yet, off to the side of the street, a child handed over two buns to a man sitting with his legs crossed.

The cross-legged man took the buns and gobbled them down in one bite; noticing the scholarly young man watching, he voiced his annoyance:

"What are you looking at? Do you really think their son could bear an Immortal Master child? Their kid was clearly snatched away by wild beasts in the mountains; they can only deceive you outsiders!"

The scholarly young man was taken aback, and as he looked again towards the bun shop from the street corner, he still saw the long queue, filled predominantly with children.

The scholarly young man joined the queue once more, and this time, he bought a whole basket of steamed buns, and began distributing them at the street corner!

Unbeknownst when, a piece of jade appeared in the cash box of the bun shop.

...

Following that, the figures of the scholarly young man and the gossamer-veiled woman were spotted throughout Qingtao City.

In the noisy taverns occupying half the street, the crowded Immortal Ascension Convention site, teahouses, and the slums.

Sometimes, they would pass by indifferently.

Sometimes they would leave behind a light jade pendant.

No one could explain their origin, only knowing they were distinguished persons from outside the city.

In the end, they left Qingtao City and headed towards a certain village.

The village too had vastly changed, taking on the semblance of a small town.

Upon reaching a thatched cottage, the woman in gauze pushed the door open, let the gauze fall, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

It was none other than Lin Shitao, and the scholarly-looking person by her side was Lin Shiming, who had come to the mortal city following Lin Xianzhi's advice.

On his journey, he had witnessed countless mortals' yearning for and adherence to the Tao.

Whether grand or minor, each was unique, yet there were numerous Tao hearts that moved him.

Inside the cottage, everything was familiar, right down to the brightly polished small window, just without a peach tree by the window.

"How wonderful!" Lin Shitao nodded in agreement, and then turned to look at Lin Shiming with a beaming smile on her face.

She didn't know how long she had been looking forward to this day.

If that child's Tao heart was to eat immortal gourds, to savor the delicacies of immortals, then her Tao heart was to be able to accompany Lin Shiming always. Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire

Even if she just looked on from below.

During this time, Lin Shiming had accompanied her around Qingtao City, eating candied haws, eating steamed buns, returning to their mundane home—all she had once dreamed of.
