"Higher than me?"

Upon hearing this answer, the Sixth Elder of the Long Family was dumbfounded.

A few months ago, Lin Yifan was a cultivator whose realm was lower than his; he couldn't imagine that within months, Lin Yifan had already surpassed him.

Lin Yifan's future achievements were destined to be extraordinary, so he had to ensure a good relationship between the Long Family and Lin Yifan.

Thus, he flattered Lin Yifan with endless conversation, chatting about this and that with great enthusiasm.

Lin Yifan was really fed up with this kind of entanglement. He knew the Elder's intention, but when it involved his freedom, it was pushing it a bit too far.

So he impatiently asked, "Elder of the Long Family, could you provide me with some space to enjoy quietly?"

Seeing Lin Yifan's displeased look, the Sixth Elder of the Long Family immediately tucked his tail and sneaked away, not daring to look back.

Many in first class witnessed this scene.

Honestly, some of them knew the identity of the Sixth Elder of the Long Family very well; for him to put aside his pride and stature to converse with Lin Yifan, yet Lin Yifan was still impatient, was indeed perplexing regarding Lin Yifan's identity.

Then, those close to the Sixth Elder of the Long Family came over to inquire, "Old Six, who is that guy? Why is he so temperamental?"

"He's the Medicine Saint's direct disciple who stirred up a storm in the Capital City a few months ago and has since been officially taken as a closed-door disciple by the Medicine Saint. His future is bright," the Sixth Elder of the Long Family replied.

If not for that identity, he wouldn't have stooped to flatter.

"Really? Then why isn't he in the Medicinal Saint Valley, and what is he doing in the secular world?"

"I don't know; I've heard he is here to perform a task," answered the Sixth Elder of the Long Family.

"Mission for Ulysses?"

"Probably!"

Ulysses is in a remote area; although it's a city, its population is only a few million, along with poor transportation and harsh weather. Apart from some jade companies, wine companies, and fruit companies, few people do business there.

The Long Family has a wine production base in Ulysses, which has recently encountered some issues, hence his visit to assess the situation.

Moreover, it's said that someone has unearthed a premium ore, including an emerald, so he wants to try his luck and see if he can gamble on this piece of premium emerald ore.

On this plane, many business people are here for this emerald; he doesn't know if Lin Yifan is also after this emerald.

If his guess is correct, then it would be tricky; because you can't have both fish and bear's paw! Either he gives face and lets Lin Yifan have it, or he tears the paper with Lin Yifan and fights till the end.

"Why would he come to such a desolate place in Ulysses for a task? Could he be interested in that emerald?" asked the partnering collaborator with the Sixth Elder of the Long Family, worried.

"I don't know,"

answered the Sixth Elder of the Long Family, shaking his head.

How could he predict Lin Yifan's task, he's not an immortal who sees the future.

Although the Sixth Elder of the Long Family spoke softly with his partner, Lin Yifan overheard them.

Upon hearing about an emerald, Lin Yifan's imagination ran wild, indulging in various speculations.

"The Green Immortal Ring is green; could the Green Immortal Ring be inside this emerald, or is this emerald a product of the Green Immortal Ring, or is it a treasure of the Desert Dynasty?"

Regardless, he should check out this emerald; otherwise, if he missed it, it would truly be a missed opportunity.

The Sixth Elder of the Long Family and his partner waited anxiously for the plane to land at Ulysses Airport.

They only prayed that Lin Yifan was not here for the emerald; anything else didn't matter.

A few hours later, the plane safely arrived in Ulysses.

Upon exiting the plane, Lin Yifan immediately felt shortness of breath, gradually becoming dizzy.

This was typical high-altitude reaction, so he had to use cultivation power to adjust his body's state.

After his body recovered, he quickly made his way to the exit, waiting for the Sixth Elder of the Long Family to emerge.

In the luggage area, the Sixth Elder of the Long Family and his companions were relieved to see Lin Yifan nowhere in sight.

Maybe Lin Yifan truly had another task in Ulysses, and they were just overthinking it.

Just as they were picking up their luggage and walking out, happily chatting away, Lin Yifan suddenly appeared behind them, calling them, giving them quite a fright.

Not knowing why Lin Yifan called him, the Sixth Elder of the Long Family curiously asked, "Brother Lin, you called me, what's the matter?"

"Where's the emerald?" Lin Yifan bluntly asked.

This startled the Sixth Elder of the Long Family again; he initially thought Lin Yifan wouldn't care about the emerald, but unexpectedly he did. And it seemed Lin Yifan wasn't aware of the emerald before, so it was likely revealed during their conversation on the plane.

The Sixth Elder of the Long Family regretted it immensely; everything was his fault, otherwise, such a predicament wouldn't have occurred.

The Long Family was determined to befriend Lin Yifan, so he dared not deceive Lin Yifan and honestly answered, "At the Gambling Stone Workshop in Ulysses."

"Are you headed there now?" Lin Yifan pursued.

"The Gambling Stone Workshop opens tomorrow, so I'm going to the hotel now!" replied the Sixth Elder of the Long Family.

"Alright, arrange a room for me, I'll go with you!"

Lin Yifan left no room for the Sixth Elder of the Long Family to refuse, domineeringly.

The Sixth Elder of the Long Family was filled with sorrow, feeling like crying; he just carelessly mentioned it on the plane, yet Lin Yifan took it to heart.

However, the emerald is jade; why would Lin Yifan, a cultivator, be interested in a piece of jade? Or maybe he doesn't know the emerald is jade?

He personally leaned towards the latter speculation, thus explaining, hoping Lin Yifan would relent, "Brother Lin, actually the emerald isn't a premium ore, but a piece of jade raw stone, it might be useless to you."

"No problem, jade is still jewelry, I can make a few bracelets or necklaces for my wife,"

Lin Yifan didn't give up on his obsession; he was determined to see the true nature of the emerald.

If it was indeed just jade, he would give up; but if it wasn't completely so, he would delve deeper.

The premium object unearthed in the high-altitude desert might be related to the Desert Dynasty, he had to approach it cautiously.

"Alas!"

The Sixth Elder of the Long Family sighed inwardly, feeling extremely dejected. It seemed Lin Yifan was determined to get the emerald, and there was no persuading him.

Only one question lingered in his mind, why did Lin Yifan want the emerald? Was it really just to craft a few jade bracelets or necklaces for his wife? He would never believe that.

Everything would have to wait until tomorrow for clarity.
