After traveling through time, my blood became a panacea

Qi Lin is only in the late first level of the Human Yuan Realm. With this kind of strength, the mortality rate if he joins the pioneering team is over 80%.

Under normal circumstances, I would never take the initiative to join the family's pioneering team.

"Brother Xu, I'm afraid I'm in great danger this time. If I can't come back, please take care of my sister Qi Fang if possible." Qi Lin bowed deeply to him.

Qi Fang had married half a year ago, and Xu Feng had even attended the wedding. After Qi Lin entered the Sikong family, the family assets that had been emptied by his practice gradually became more abundant, and Qi Fang was not young anymore, so she quickly arranged a marriage and got married.

Although both her parents died, Qi Fang had a brother who worked for the Sikong family, one of the three major families, so she could be relied on. But if something happened to Qi Lin, Qi Fang's future life would depend entirely on the conscience of her husband's family.

"No need to do that. Sit down first." Xu Feng comforted him to sit down, then poured him a cup of tea.

"What's going on? Why did you suddenly join the pioneering team? Explain it clearly." Xu Feng asked.

Qi Lin sighed deeply, drank the tea on the table in one gulp, and then said with great regret: "After all, it was because I was careless and gave someone a handle on me." Then he slowly told the story.

It turned out that the reason why Qi Lin was determined to join the Sikong family after he started practicing was, on the one hand, because he had a cousin with some power who could take care of him, and on the other hand, because his childhood sweetheart, a neighbor sister, was sold to the Sikong family as a maid.

The friendship between the two was deep. After Qi Lin entered Sikong's house, he soon reunited with the girl next door. The two of them talked to each other from the bottom of their hearts, and their feelings had not changed. They were naturally in a deep and comfortable mood.

In fact, it was not uncommon for young men and women to get together among the servants of the Sikong family. It was also not uncommon for young men and women to help match them up. Of course, the prerequisite was that the servants were thoughtful and careful in their work and satisfied their masters.

But everything has rules and one cannot act recklessly. Otherwise, wouldn't all kinds of dirty things be able to happen in the mansion and under the noses of the masters?

The bad thing was that when Qi Lin had time to meet his childhood sweetheart in a quiet place on the rockery, he was discovered on the spot. In fact, it was broad daylight, with people coming and going, and the two of them just leaned against each other and talked to each other, and it was impossible for them to do anything too outrageous.

Although it was against the rules, people usually turned a blind eye and gave a slight punishment, either a fine of one or two months' salary or a few whippings.

But what they never expected was that the housekeeper who caught the man was also in charge of recruiting members for the land reclamation team. He was worried about the lack of staff at the time, and Qi Lin happened to be caught in the crossfire and was used as an example to scare the monkeys. Either the two were convicted of adultery, or Qi Lin took the initiative to join the land reclamation team to absolve them of the crime.

Qi Lin had no choice. It was better for one person to die than for both to die and become infamous. He later learned that the housekeeper had a bad relationship with his cousin.

Because he felt that this trip was not going to end well, he came to Xu Feng to tell him about his affairs. He also wanted Xu Feng to take care of his childhood sweetheart, but after all, the two had never even met, and he felt that he was asking for too much.

Xu Feng understood the whole story, pondered for a moment, looked at Qi Lin and asked: "So what did you prepare for this trip?"

Qi Lin was stunned, but still said honestly: "Three speed-increasing talismans, five rock talismans, two detoxification pills, and a bottle of Qi-replenishing pills."

Speeding up, increasing defense, detoxifying, and replenishing spiritual energy consumption are common preparations.

"My cousin prepared the detoxification pill and the qi-boosting pill for me." Qi Lin added. No matter what kind of pill it is, it is very valuable.

I think Manager Niu also felt guilty. After all, as a junior, he was implicated in the feud between him and the head of internal affairs, which led to this misfortune.

"With your strength, you should be the weakest in the pioneering team. You are the only one who can take on such a high-risk mission as exploring the front." Xu Feng said slowly while sipping his tea.

Qi Lin's face turned pale. Although he already knew this in his heart, he still couldn't help but feel nervous when Xu Feng said it to him in person.

"Who will lead the team this year?" Xu Feng asked again.

"It's the Fourth Miss!" Qi Linsheng answered hopelessly, as if he had lost all his energy.

Fourth Miss, is this Sikong Hongyu?

The Sikong family had quite a few children, twelve in total. Excluding children like Sikong Ming who had never embarked on the path of cultivation and those with average talent below the third level of the human element realm, there were four contenders for the next generation of family heads, namely the eldest son Sikong Haoyue, the fourth daughter Sikong Hongyu, the sixth daughter Sikong Feiyan, and the tenth son Sikong Zhaixing.

I heard that Sikong Hongyu's strength has reached the middle sixth level of the Human Yuan Realm, second only to Sikong Haoyue.

Xu Feng looked at Qi Lin's pale face, hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind: "Go talk to your cousin and see if he can help you arrange for me to replace you and join the pioneering team. After all, I am also in the late third level of the Human Yuan Realm. I think I am more attractive than you who are in the first level of the Human Yuan Realm, right?"

"What, what?" Qi Lin suddenly raised his head and looked at Xu Feng in disbelief.

"Brother Xu, are you serious?" Qi Lin asked in a trembling voice.

Xu Feng nodded lightly.

Qi Lin suddenly felt that there was a ray of hope, and was so happy that his head was dizzy.

"But, but why?" Qi Lin suppressed his excitement, and the surprise on his face faded a little.

"You also know that I failed to break through last time. I guess it's because of lack of experience. I originally wanted to find out more about the pioneering team and see if I could join this year's team. Now it happens that you have encountered this disaster, so I might as well go through this for you!" Xu Feng explained.

"Brother Xu!!!" Qi Lin fell to his knees, crying.

Even though he practiced diligently before he started practicing, that was all for the purpose of gaining a future in the Sikong family.

He knew his talent and understanding clearly, and he could not go further on the path of cultivation. So after he entered the Human Yuan Realm with the help of Xu Feng, he completely relaxed his cultivation. So until now, he has only reached the late stage of the first level of the Human Yuan Realm, and has completely relied on the effects of elixirs, and there is still no sign of a breakthrough.

When he joined the pioneering team this time, he had no confidence at all that he would come back alive.

Xu Feng went to replace him, which could be said to be a life-saving grace, so how could he not be grateful? As for whether his cousin could help him operate, the two of them would definitely replace each other.

When he went to his cousin to discuss solving this matter before, his cousin mentioned at the first time that if he could find additional cultivators in the Human Yuan Realm who were willing to join voluntarily, he could help him solve the problem.

How could he not be excited at this moment!

"Well, you're the only friend here. There's no need to do this. Get up now."

Qi Lin wiped the tears from his face and slowly stood up.

"Brother Xu, the pioneering team is extremely...very dangerous. Are you sure?" Qi Lin asked cautiously.

Xu Feng felt a little relieved. Qi Lin knew that this might make him change his mind, but he still asked out of concern. He did not rush to find Manager Niu to settle the matter immediately, fearing that Xu Feng would regret it. This made him feel relieved.

"Who dares to say that I am absolutely sure? But I also have some methods of my own. Can an experience without any danger still be considered an experience? That will not help me break through the bottleneck at all."

"Well, that's good!" Qi Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, these are all for you." Qi Lin hurriedly took out the talismans, detoxification pills and energy-replenishing pills he had prepared. Since Xu Feng replaced him and joined the pioneering team, he no longer needed these.

Xu Feng did not refuse.

"Then, I'll go find my cousin?" Qi Lin said weakly. This was Xu Feng's last chance to regret.

"Well, let's go!"

Qi Lin, feeling extremely grateful and somewhat ashamed, bowed deeply to him again, then gritted his teeth, turned around and left.
