Chapter 2587 We need to change our goals starting today!
When Ling Tian returned home, he found that Lin Qi was not in the house, so he sat down on the sofa and began to rest.
After meeting Miao Xingwen today and discussing leaving the city with Mina, Ling Tian felt a little tired, so he fell asleep unconsciously as his eyelids became heavier.
Although this sleep lasted only half an hour, Ling Tian's physical strength was fully restored.
He sat up and immediately noticed Lin Qi who was already sitting on the sofa.
Lin Qi also heard the sound and turned to look over. After meeting Ling Tian's gaze, he smiled slightly and said, "I saw that Big Brother was sleeping, so I didn't wake him up."
"Ah."
Ling Tian nodded, stood up and stretched his muscles, then sat down again and said, "Why did you go out? Are you bored at home?"
"That's right." Lin Qi looked at Ling Tian. "I originally wanted to go out for a walk and see if I could gather some useful information, but in the end, I found that the people here still ignored me. No matter what I said, they wouldn't respond at all... Brother, I'm really miserable!"
After Lin Qi finished speaking, he did not forget to reveal a painful expression.
Seeing his expression, Ling Tian smiled helplessly and shook his head: "Alright, don't even think about gathering intelligence from now on. I've almost got everything done here. We'll stay in the capital for three months at most, and then we'll leave."
After he finished speaking, Ling Tian told Lin Qi everything that happened today, including how he became the vice president.
After everything was said, Lin Qi said in surprise: "Brother, so you are also a person with considerable status in the capital? I didn't expect that you would improve so quickly. Then, can we get all the information in the capital from now on?"
"Almost." Ling Tian admitted softly, "If there's anything you want to know, we can ask the warriors at the gathering place to collect it. At least it saves us the time of busying ourselves with these little bits of information, which makes things a little easier."
"And even if we really can't find them, we can still issue missions. We have a lot of crystals on hand. If we want to gather intelligence, we can just issue missions at the gathering place and wait for people to take them. It's not a big problem, so you don't need to worry about these things for now. Instead, you should consider more important things."
Hearing Ling Tian's words, Lin Qi was slightly stunned, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then he said seriously: "Brother, tell me, what is the more important matter? What do you need me to do? Tell me anything, I will definitely not let you down!"
"Improve your strength." Ling Tian looked at Lin Qi. "Although your current strength is quite good, your realm is too low, and your swordsmanship has never reached the level I expect. So I hope you can work hard and concentrate on improving your realm and strength. This is the top priority."
"Although I asked Miao Xingwen to ask the city lord to see if he could find a way for you to avoid participating in the martial arts tournament, if there is no suitable method in the end, then you will have no choice but to participate in the martial arts tournament. Therefore... your own strength must be amazing enough!"
After he finished speaking, Lin Qi remained silent, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.
Perhaps he didn't expect that Ling Tian actually wanted him to participate in the martial arts competition.
Of course, he was surprised, but he didn't feel any dissatisfaction in his heart.
He could feel that Ling Tian had made great efforts to get him to leave with him, and had been looking for ways. If it weren't for him, Ling Tian would only need to participate in the martial arts competition and easily get the first place without having to worry about these things at all.
But according to what Ling Tian said, if there is really no suitable way to allow him to leave the capital, then the final choice can only be the martial arts competition.
So after a moment of thought, Lin Qi looked at Ling Tian with a serious expression: "I know, big brother. After this mission out of the city is over, I will definitely work hard to improve my strength."
"Well, after we leave the city this time, I can help you reach the Saint Realm, but after that, you'll need to work hard on your own, and your swordsmanship must also break through the limitations, at least to be invincible in the same realm."
After hearing these words, Lin Qi was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but feel excited and expectant.
Invincible in the same realm, how pleasant it sounds.
If one day I could really learn Ling Tian’s swordsmanship and become as powerful as him, would I be able to challenge him across realms?
Could it be that……
Lin Qi came back to his senses and looked up at Ling Tian, his eyes full of curiosity. "Brother, can you challenge warriors across realms? How many realms higher than yours can you challenge?"
Hearing this, Ling Tian smiled faintly and shook his head: "I don't know what realm I can challenge, but as long as they are at the same realm as me, I have absolute suppression power."
This simple sentence gave Lin Qi a new understanding of Ling Tian's strength.
Invincible in the same realm. Of course, Lin Qi knew that Ling Tian’s estimate was probably a conservative one. If he took it seriously, could he defeat a being one realm higher than himself?
Then, if I work hard, will I be able to catch up with him and stand at the top of the martial arts world?
Countless fantasies flooded into Lin Qi's mind, making his whole body tremble with excitement.
Ling Tian noticed Lin Qi's reaction and was slightly stunned. Then he asked in confusion: "What's going on with you? Why are you reacting like this?"
"It's okay, big brother!" Lin Qi waved his hands hurriedly: "I just couldn't help but get excited when I thought about becoming an invincible warrior in the same realm. Hehe, I'm just looking forward to my future."
"Indeed, that comment sounds very satisfying, but..." Ling Tian suddenly paused before continuing, "But if you keep living in fantasy and don't take action towards your goal, then all of this will remain just fantasy, and you'll never be able to experience it firsthand."
Ling Tian's words calmed Lin Qi down quickly. After letting out a breath, he nodded seriously, "I understand, big brother. I will definitely work hard for this goal and will definitely not let you down!"
"Well, okay, someone will be coming to the house tonight, so you should get ready. We also need to make some plans for this trip out of town."
In fact, when Ling Tian talked about what happened today, he did not mention Mina's situation.
So Lin Qi didn't know who was coming to visit tonight.
Just when Lin Qi was puzzled, there was a knock on the door. Lin Qi hurriedly got up and went to open the door, and found a beautiful figure standing at the door.
Seeing Mina, Lin Qi was simply astonished. His voice couldn't stop trembling, revealing his inner nervousness as he asked, "Hello... who are you looking for?"
