Just as Lin Shihua was speaking, Qin Xi also seemed to think of something and quickly changed the topic.
"Grandpa, I just heard you talking about the selection of candidates, but what major event happened in the world of immortality?"
"This this?"
Lin Shigong looked helpless and paused again and again as if hesitating.
Seeing this, Lin Shihua also said: "Xi'er, it's just arranged by some members of the family. Nothing major happened. You and Tianming are the future of the family. You just need to stay in the clan and practice with peace of mind!"
"As for the external affairs, just let us old guys deal with them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shigong also spoke in agreement.
"Yes, Shihua is right. You juniors can cultivate with peace of mind and break through the realm. We old guys are getting older and our potential has almost been exhausted. We can only try our best to assist you for more than a hundred years."
Before he finished speaking, Qin Xi looked a little heavy, and then said: "Grandpas, I heard everything you just discussed!"
Hearing this, Lin Shigong and Lin Shihua felt awkward and a little embarrassed.
In their eyes, it was better not to tell Qin Xi about the recruitment order, so as not to cause trouble to the juniors.
But Qin Xi happened to overhear their conversation and exposed their lies, which made her feel a little embarrassed.
Just as the two of them were smiling bitterly, Qin Xi continued to talk.
"Fighting on the front line is very dangerous. If the clan members whose cultivation level is too low are gone, it may be difficult for them to come back alive!"
"Xi'er's cultivation has broken through the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, and she has successfully practiced spiritual arts. Even ordinary seventh-level Foundation Establishment monks are probably no match for me."
"Now the family is in trouble, and Xi'er is also a member of the Lin family, so just let me go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shihua looked serious and rejected Qin Xi's request.
"How can that be done? The battlefield is too dangerous, not to mention that our relationship with Zhenyang Sect is very delicate. There is no guarantee that they will not make things difficult for us!"
"I don't agree with you going!"
Seeing Lin Shihua's firm tone, there seemed to be no room for negotiation.
But in Qin Xi's opinion, Lin Shihua and Lin Shigong were so serious because they were thinking about her safety.
Because of this, he felt the care of his elders, and couldn't help but think of her grandfather's kind face, whether it was sternness or tone, which was very similar to the two of them.
This scene reminded her of her grandfather, and she felt the warmth that her grandfather had given her in her heart.
At this moment, Qin Xi was very moved and his nose couldn't help but feel sore.
After finally calming down, Qin Xi looked at the serious elders and began to persuade him sincerely.
"Grandpa Twelve, Xi'er and Brother Ming fought together in the battlefield of Yuyao City. He is also familiar with the inner disciples of Zhenyang Sect, so he will definitely be able to deal with them!"
"Besides that, Brother Ming also knows how strong I am. Not to mention that I can easily win by crossing a higher level, at least I am very sure that I can win by fighting with monks of the same level!"
"And Xi'er has also experienced many life and death crises since she entered the path of cultivation. She has also killed many monks. At least she can be regarded as someone with rich experience in fighting."
"What's more, the family doesn't have any suitable candidates at the moment."
"And even if I stay in the family, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to break through in my cultivation within a year or two. I might as well go to the battlefield to practice."
"Two grandpas, if Xi'er is confident to handle it, let me fulfill my duties as a clan member for the family!"
Qin Xi's words did not convince Lin Shihua and Lin Tianming, but they convinced Lin Tianming.
In his heart, Qin Xi was indeed outstanding, no worse than himself.
Putting aside his cultivation level, in terms of strength, he is indeed the best among monks of the same level.
And she has been able to acquire such cultivation strength because she has experienced a lot in these years, and she is very comfortable in such a living environment, and she can also play with her enemies at her fingertips.
Under desperate circumstances, being able to fight and become stronger is obviously not something ordinary people can do.
It was precisely because he knew her past that he admired her from the bottom of his heart.
Now on the issue of candidates, since Qin Xi has mentioned this, it can be said that he is well-founded and is indeed one of the best candidates to go to the battlefield.
In addition to these, he also believes in one truth, that is, crises and opportunities coexist, and only by putting in enough effort can there be greater gains.
And if they want to stay together forever and go further in their cultivation, they must face the difficulties.
Understanding this, Lin Tianming also joined Qin Xi's camp.
Under the bombardment of the two people's chattering words, Qin Xi tried his best to please them with all kinds of sweet words, and even pretended to be angry and threatened them.
Not to mention, this method really made Lin Shihua a little bit overwhelmed.
"Grandpa... Grandpa Twelve, just let Xi'er go, okay..."
"Just let me go... At the very least, all plans must be made according to Uncle Tongxing's arrangements!"
"This this……?"
Lin Shihua was speechless for a moment, unable to refute. He was not as sharp as he was when facing outsiders.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming also chuckled, thinking that the patriarch also had his moments of frustration.
Immediately afterwards, under Qin Xi's constant persuasion, Lin Shihua and Lin Shigong exchanged a few words in private.
The two of them seemed unable to deal with this annoying granddaughter-in-law, and finally relented in desperation and had no choice but to agree to Qin Xi's request.
"Okay... Since Xi'er has such ambitions, we old guys will let you go."
"But I've said it before, safety must be the top priority at all times. As long as you juniors are alive, it's no big deal even if you offend the Zhenyang Sect.
"You know, our family is no longer what it used to be. Not to mention fighting against them, at least we are not without the power to resist!"
"If you push us hard, we old guys will have to pay a heavy price even if we risk our lives!"
Lin Shihua's words were sharp and his expression was domineering.
And these words also made Qin Xi, who was already a little confused, more sure of his guess.
Although other members of the Lin family, including Lin Tianming, have never mentioned people from the Jindan period.
But now listening to Lin Shihua say this, it is obvious that the hidden power of the family is definitely not weak.
Then thinking about Ye Pinghai and Lin Shikang, whom she had not seen for a long time, it further confirmed her assumption.
There must already be two Jindan monks in the family!
The smart Qin Xi quickly thought of something and felt that the family was becoming stronger and stronger.
However, he was very sensible and could have guessed the result in his mind. Since the family did not take the initiative to mention it, they must have considered it.
If she asked the two elders, although she would get an accurate answer, it would inevitably be a little embarrassing.
In this way, Qin Xi stopped and changed the topic.
"Grandpa Twelve, apart from Xi'er participating, which of the other two candidates do you plan to invite from the same clan?"
Hearing this, Lin Shihua and Lin Shigong frowned and read out several names.
"Xingrong?"
"Xingping, Xingzhi, Xingyuan..."
In a short time, Lin Shihua and his wife discussed the candidate in private.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Shihua looked at Lin Tianming, and then said: "Xi'er, after discussion with Brother Jiu, I will let your Uncle Xingping and Uncle Xingyuan go with you!"
After hearing this, Qin Xi thought about it carefully and instantly understood how much the two elders valued her.
You must know that Lin Xingping and Lin Xingyuan are both at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. They are also the first members of the Lin family to break through to Foundation Establishment.
Among them, Lin Xingyuan is still a second-level low-grade alchemist.
It can be said that the cultivation strength of the two is also the absolute mainstay in the family, and has played a great role in the rapid development of the family in recent years.
As for the Zhenyang Sect's request to issue a recruitment order, they can only send one clansman who is in the middle stage of foundation establishment and two people who are in the early stage of foundation establishment.
If clan members are selected according to the minimum recruitment requirements, it will undoubtedly be the most ideal arrangement for the family.
But for Qin Xi's safety, Lin Shihua also tried his best to mobilize his strength and sent the absolute mainstay of the family to go to the battlefield with her.
Such a move undoubtedly puts her safety first.
Therefore, she also tried her best to improve the overall strength of their team so that they could survive the frontline battle.
Understanding this, Qin Xi's nose, which had just returned to normal, became sore again, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
"This is the warmth of family!"
“There will always be someone who cares about your safety and will try to pave the way for you!”
"Clan leader, grandpa... Xi'er will definitely not let you down!"
At this time, Qin Xi turned his head and muttered to himself secretly, with a strong confidence in his expression.
After regaining her composure, she adjusted her state.
Immediately afterwards, she didn't say anything more. After all, the second elder had already decided on the candidate for her safety!
It was hard for her to agree to go, and if they were asked to change people, they would definitely not compromise again.
In this way, if he failed to live up to their good intentions, he would appear to be a bit ungrateful.
As the candidates for the expedition were finalized, Lin Shihua thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Xi'er, you tribe members participating in the war are getting ready. Remember to go to the family merit hall in the next few days and receive a Long Star Fruit and ten second-level talismans each."
"If conditions permit, it is best to refine the Long Star Fruit before setting off. It will be safer this way."
After hearing this, Qin Xi did not reject the clan leader's kindness. He also knew that the battlefield must be dangerous. Since the clan leader had arranged it, in order to reassure them, he just obeyed the arrangement.
Understanding this, Qin Xi quickly thanked him.
"Thank you Grandpa Twelve!"
"Well... Now that the selection has been decided, I won't delay you young couple!"
"Brother Ninth, let's go!"
After Lin Shihua nodded and said something, he looked at Lin Shigong beside him and kept winking at him.
Seeing this, Lin Shigong couldn't figure out what it meant.
At this time, he nodded and smiled, then took out several second-level talismans from his storage bag and handed them to Qin Xi.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Shigong gave a serious instruction.
"Xi'er, I don't have anything good. Just keep these talismans for self-defense. Remember to be careful on the battlefield. Please discuss everything with your Uncle Xingping before making decisions."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Shihua on the side also echoed.
"Yeah... Although Xingping and the others are not as powerful as you, they are rich in experience and discuss everything!"
"Don't worry, Grandpas, Xi'er will definitely keep it in mind!"
"Well……"
Lin Shigong nodded with satisfaction, and then followed Lin Shihua and left his cave.
As Lin Shihua and his wife left, only Lin Tianming and his wife were left in the courtyard.
At this time, Lin Tianming also pulled Qin Xi into his arms, stroking her hair with his palms.
"Xi'er, this time the sect war breaks out, and with the participation of the Blood Red Alliance, I'm afraid it won't be a trivial fight.
"If nothing else happens, the battle will be fierce. If nothing can be done, there is no need to risk one's life for the Zhenyang Sect!"
Hearing Lin Tianming's words of instruction, Qin Xi nodded and buried her head deeply in his arms.
"Brother Ming, as a member of the family, Xi'er must do her part. Even if she knows it is dangerous, she has to face the difficulties, so that she can go further on the path to immortality."
"After all, Brother Ming's talent is excellent. His cultivation has improved rapidly over the years, and he is about to reach the golden elixir stage."
"Although Xi'er is not as strong as you, I don't want you to carry the family forward alone. If I want to catch up with you, I have to take risks. When the family faces crises in the future, I can fight side by side with you. "
Hearing Qin Xi's ambitious words, Lin Tianming nodded, quite agreeing with what she said.
In his mind, if a family wants to develop and grow, it will definitely be difficult to succeed with only the efforts of a few people.
But if there are more people like Qin Xi in the family, and everyone has a strong heart, there will definitely be a brighter future.
With people like this working together, there is no need to worry about the family not being able to develop.
Understanding this, coupled with the arrogance shown by Qin Xi, Lin Tianming, who was exaggerated, felt very pleased in his heart.
After coming back to his senses, Lin Tianming smiled and encouraged: "Xi'er's talent is not weak either. No matter what goal you set, I believe you can achieve it."
"But Xi'er, please remember one thing. Be careful when you are outside. Keep the green hills intact so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood!"
Hearing this, Qin Xi nodded with a determined look on his face.
Then, she replied: "Brother Ming, don't worry, Xi'er will be careful and will come back safely."
"On the family side, it's up to you and Third Grandpa!"
"And when Xi'er returns, I hope Brother Ming can take a further step. If he successfully enters the Golden Core stage, it would be great!"
Hearing Qin Xi's words, Lin Tianming didn't agree.
After all, no one can predict the development direction of the Three Sects War in advance.
And he is now at the pinnacle of the ninth level of foundation building, and has not yet reached the Great Perfection state.
If everything goes well, after one or two years, we may be able to retreat to the golden elixir stage.
