Chapter 87: Hungry Thieves in the Night

After the banquet, Lin Jing's life quieted down again.

Before he knew it, the weather gradually cooled, and autumn passed day by day. The greenery in Lin Jing's courtyard turned from lush green to withered yellow, and even that flourishing willow tree lost its leaves day by day...

Until over three months later, winter came again, dressing the earth in a silver garb and covering it with a white cotton blanket.

This morning, Lin Jing had just finished refining Elixir Medicine and stepped out of the System Space, stretching his limbs outside the house.

He looked at the snow-covered ground and the thin layer of ice on the fishpond. Inside, several small fish swam about nonchalantly.

Just then, Lin Jing seemed to feel something and suddenly looked up towards the horizon.

He saw a dark shadow flying towards him from afar, getting closer and closer.

Eventually, the shadow landed not far away, in Huang Qingling's yard.
