If he were to go out now, his own aura would surely trigger the reaction of the spirit insect detector.

At that point, it would be able to find him based on the guidance of the spirit insect detector.

However, with The Hidden Dragon Pendant of the Azure Moon in his possession, Lin Jing could change his aura at will and potentially evade the detection of the spirit insect detector.

But…

Even if Lin Jing changed his disguise and aura, it would still not be wise to venture out hastily.

It would be less troublesome to wait for that Pill Master surnamed Wang to leave, and then he could go out without delay.

After all, Lin Jing was not in a rush, and instead of idling by, it seemed more practical to refine some Elixir Furnace Medicine.

“System, exit Observation Mode.”

Acting on his thoughts, Lin Jing immediately exited Observation Mode and headed to the Alchemy Room to start his busy work.

After waiting for some time and seeing no movement in the alley, the Pill Master surnamed Wang finally left the alley with furrowed brows.

After the Pill Master surnamed Wang left the alley…

It wasn’t long before Lin Jing finished refining a batch of Elixir Medicine, and he then re-entered Observation Mode to inspect the area, confirming that Pill Master Wang had indeed gone.

Only then did Lin Jing change his identity and aura again and leave through another exit of the alley.

Walking back, Lin Jing pondered continuously.

It was now impossible to follow this Pill Master Wang with the spirit insect detector present; no matter what, he could not evade it.

But without following him, he wouldn’t know the true intentions of Pill Master Wang, nor could he rashly accompany him to some Fourth Grade Pill Master’s cave dwelling.

Most importantly, he was extremely interested in acquiring that Spirit Grass.

Unless he could find a way to follow him without triggering the alarm of the spirit insect detector.

Just then, Lin Jing suddenly had a flash of inspiration as if he thought of something, and a smile played on his lips as he murmured to himself,

“How could I forget about it?”

Then…

Lin Jing strode towards his own residence.

After returning, Lin Jing didn’t go back to his own courtyard, but instead arrived at Huang Qingling’s courtyard.

The solution Lin Jing had thought of was Little Sparrow.

Little Sparrow was a Demonic Beast, and if it set out to follow, it would naturally not alert the spirit insect detector.

Moreover, it was small and swift, making it extremely difficult to detect.

Most crucially, it possessed a certain level of intelligence, which made it fully capable of completing the tracking task.

Following that, Lin Jing knocked on the door.

After a moment, Huang Qingling’s voice came from inside,

“Coming…”

However, the tone sounded somewhat subdued and lacked its usual liveliness as if she was not in a good mood.

The courtyard door then opened…

Lin Jing saw Huang Qingling, whose complexion clearly looked off, as if she had just been sulking.

Upon seeing Lin Jing standing at the doorway, her expression eased slightly.

“Lin Jing, is that you…”

“What brought you here today…”

Huang Qingling asked, looking at Lin Jing with curiosity.

“Well, I just finished submitting the Elixir Medicine today and decided to take a break from alchemy, rest a bit, and then come over to see you.” “What’s wrong with you? Who has upset you again?”

Huang Qingling huffed, “Who else could it be but that silly bird?”

“Little Sparrow?”

“How did it bother you again? Feel free to tell me…”

Lin Jing was very curious; at Huang Qingling’s place, Little Sparrow had become the typical example of the saying “every three days, without a beating, one climbs onto the roof to start trouble.”

Huang Qingling replied, posing a question back to Lin Jing,

“Since last time, has Little Sparrow come to you, asking for your help with making something to eat?”

Lin Jing thought for a moment and then suddenly remembered that Little Sparrow hadn’t come looking for him since it had been taken by Elder Bai for training last time.

With that realization, Lin Jing spoke,

“Actually, no, it hasn’t. Ever since Little Sparrow was trained by Elder Bai that time, it hasn’t come to me again.”

“Could it be that this Little Sparrow has become picky? It doesn’t like the food I make anymore?”

Lin Jing looked at Huang Qingling, asking with curiosity.

“Its taste has indeed become refined; it doesn’t like normal food anymore…”

When Huang Qingling reached this point, he seemed to harbor deep resentment.

“Not eating food?”

Lin Jing was very curious and quickly asked Huang Qingling:

“Then what does it eat now?”

“It, ah…

Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing, his mouth curving into a mischievous smile, “Now it eats Elixir Medicine, and specifically the kind that boosts cultivation, it doesn’t reject any…”

“Eating Elixir Medicine…”

Lin Jing was shocked; this was the first time he had heard of Demonic Beasts eating Elixir Medicine.

“I only discovered this a couple of days ago…”

Huang Qingling’s teeth gritted with a grinding noise as he spoke angrily:

“It’s infuriating, I was just disciplining it.”

Lin Jing didn’t understand:

“If Little Sparrow can digest Elixir Medicine, then the medicine must be beneficial to it. Feeding it one or two pills occasionally should be fine, right…?”

“Why still discipline it?”

“Could it be that it has committed theft again?”

Lin Jing knew that one or two Elixir Medicines were nothing to Huang Qingling, and Huang Qingling wouldn’t discipline it over such a trifle. Unless, Little Sparrow had done something disgraceful again, like stealing…

“Stealing…”

“If it was just stealing, that would be fine…

Huang Qingling snorted coldly.

“Is it that serious?

Lin Jing exclaimed in surprise.

“Forget it, I’ll just tell you…”

“Ever since Elder Yu underwent his Tribulation, this Little Sparrow has been running outside every day, but it hasn’t caused any trouble, so I just let it be and didn’t bother with it.”

“Until later on, Little Sparrow did something and became much smarter…”

“Out of curiosity, I marked it and followed it outside once, only to find that it had always been running to the Night Mist Mountain Range…”

“Since that was its home, where it grew up, in the Night Mist Mountain Range, with Little Sparrow’s abilities, it was unlikely to suffer any loss, so I set my mind at ease and didn’t continue to follow it…”

“Since then, I stopped paying attention to it…”

“Sometimes, it even brought back some Spirit Grass from the Night Mist Mountain Range…”

“At first, I was quite happy, thinking it had found them on its own…”

“But just yesterday, it actually brought back Elixir Medicine, and a Magic

Artifact… ”

“Elixir Medicine, and a Magic Artifact…”

Lin Jing smacked his lips.

“Has Little Sparrow’s old habit flared up again?” “It’s more than that…”

Huang Qingling said through gritted teeth:

“Like I told you, if it was just stealing, that would be one thing…”

“This silly bird has leveled up, it’s not stealing anymore, it’s turned into a bandit…”

“Turned… into a bandit?”

Lin Jing was dumbfounded; the idea that Little Sparrow could become a bandit was beyond him, and he couldn’t understand how it would rob others. Perhaps it waited for the right moment and just snatched the Storage Bag and ran?

“Brother Qingling, how does Little Sparrow act as a bandit? I’m quite curious, can it actually open a Storage Bag?”

“Hmph…

“You’re curious, are you? You’ll find out when you see it later…” Huang Qingling said with a cold laugh.

“Come on, I’ll take you to meet this great thief…”

With that, Huang Qingling led Lin Jing toward the courtyard..
