Cultivation Of Immortality: Starting From Working As A Cook In A Weapon-Refining Shop

After that, the escort team had an unimpeded journey and arrived at Hengzhou extremely smoothly.

This made everyone feel much happier.

As they neared their destination, Lin Qingxue asked Lu Yu to cook a barbecue feast to reward everyone. Not just roast chicken, but also barbecued meat skewers made from various monster meats, sprinkled with special spice powder and other ingredients.

Several beauties were amazed by the food.

…………………………………………

A few days later, the escort team finally arrived at Yingcheng, the central city of Hengzhou.

That is where the goods were traded.

Once the delivery is completed, the task will be considered completed.

The transaction of goods did not require Lu Yu's participation, so after finding an inn, he began to wander around Yingcheng.

Walking on the familiar streets, Lu Yu felt like he was back in time.

I think it was here that he applied for a job as a weapon refining assistant.

I also fought here for more than a hundred days and nights.

Now many years have passed, Yingcheng is still prosperous, but he is no longer the young man who relied on others.

After visiting the market and purchasing some high-grade ores, Lu Yu went straight back to the inn.

But after walking into the small courtyard of the inn, I found that everyone was back, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

Several beauties were dejected at this time.

Seeing the ores placed intact in the yard, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.

"The ore was not sold?" Lu Yu couldn't help but ask.

Unexpectedly, Lin Qingxue actually nodded.

If the deal is not reached, the mission will not be completed, and he will not be able to leave, and may have to be escorted back again.

Damn, this is such a big hole!

After asking the reason, I found out that it turned out to be someone who had been let go.

The buyer had always purchased from them before and was a regular customer, so the two parties did not sign any contract and were escorted over regularly every six months.

Unexpectedly, this time the other party suddenly said that he had bought goods from another company, and the price of the other company was 10% lower than that of Liuyun Sect.

And now they can't find a new buyer, and they can't ask the family for help, because this is a test, and any problems they encounter need to be solved independently.

So everyone looked sad.

"Is it enough as long as it can be sold?" Lu Yu suddenly asked.

"Yes, as long as it can be sold, it doesn't matter even if the price is lower."

"Let me give it a try." Lu Yu sighed.

He doesn't have much vacation time, and he really can't use it up anymore. He has to finish the task quickly so that he can do other things.

"You?" Lin Qingxue suddenly had some hope after hearing this, but when she thought of Lu Yu's identity, she was immediately discouraged.

There was nothing they could do, and she didn't think an outer disciple would be able to do anything.

"Wait for my good news." After Lu Yu said that, he turned and left.

…………………………………………

I went straight to Liu's house and saw the same two boys at the door.

Lu Yu walked up and was about to get close to him, but saw the two boys suddenly staring with big eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.

"Are you... Lu... Lu Yu?" a boy stammered.

"Exactly, I don't know..." Lu Yu just wanted to ask.

"Quick! Go and inform the lady!"

The two boys immediately ran away as if they had been given a shot of blood.

This left Lu Yu speechless. Is it necessary to be so exaggerated?

After waiting for less than half a quarter of an hour, a gentle and beautiful woman hurriedly walked out of the door.

"Junior Brother Lu, it's you indeed!" Liu Ruyan looked surprised when she saw Lu Yu.

"Miss Liu, long time no see!" Lu Yu said with a faint smile.

"Humph! You haven't come to see me for so long! You must have forgotten about me, right?" Liu Ruyan said a little annoyed.

"Miss Liu is usually so busy, how dare I come to disturb you!" Lu Yu felt guilty after hearing this and quickly explained.

"If you don't come to me, do you want me to come to you personally?" Liu Ruyan couldn't help but gritted her teeth.

Over the years, she did look for him, but he was so elusive that she just couldn't find him.

This guy was so good that he completely forgot about her.

"Okay, it's my fault. I will often come to bother you in the future until you are annoyed!" Lu Yu said with a smile.

"Humph, that's pretty much it!" Liu Ruyan suddenly turned from anger to joy.

After the two exchanged pleasantries, Lu Yu finally revealed his purpose of visit with some embarrassment.

The Liu family was a well-known weapon-refining family and they probably knew a lot of people. Lu Yu wanted to see if the other party could help contact some buyers to buy this batch of ore.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruyan said directly that their family could eat it.

This surprised Lu Yu secretly.

These aristocratic families are indeed rich!

It seems that his vision is too small.

So, at the invitation of the Liu family, Lin Qingxue and his party completed the deal with a look of disbelief on their faces.

Both parties were very humble in this transaction, and the Liu family did not ask for any discount, but the two parties finally closed the deal at a price slightly lower than the market price.

"This boy actually has such a confidante?" Several beauties were a little surprised.

"It seems that it's not easy for you to snatch him away." Lin Qingxue teased.

…………………………………………

"Junior Brother Lu, won't you go back with us?"

"No, I have something else to do!"

After saying goodbye to everyone, Lu Yu left Yingcheng without stopping and flew straight to Zhongzhou.

He has already made it clear to Liu Ruyan that there is a Qi Ling Sect in Central Continent that has natural earth fire, which can reach the intensity of Jindan level true fire, and can be rented out to outside monks for use.

However, the rent is not cheap, costing thousands of spiritual stones a day.

But there is nothing he can do. His current foundation-building true fire is too weak and he cannot refine mysterious weapons. As for this set of materials for the White-winged Bat King, I was worried about refining them for others. After all, the mutated Bat King's remains with the bloodline of a flying dragon were so precious that even Nascent Soul monks would be jealous if they saw it.

What's more, it's very difficult to ask a master to refine weapons. Not only do you have to prepare more than two materials, but you also have to pay a large amount of spiritual stones, and in the end, the materials may be useless.

So Lu Yu didn't hesitate long and decided to try refining it with earth fire himself.

…………………………………………

Zhongzhou, Qi Ling Sect, is located on a huge earth-fire mountain range.

This earth-fire mountain range stretches for hundreds of miles, and one section of it is particularly hot, making it a unique holy land for refining weapons.

It is precisely because of this geomantic treasure that Qi Ling Sect has slowly developed into one of the five major sects in Central Continent.

After arriving at the gate of Qi Ling Sect and explaining his purpose, Lu Yu was led to a complex of buildings by the patrolling disciples with enthusiasm.

There are independent negotiation rooms distributed in this building complex, and each negotiation room corresponds to an earth-fire refining room of different levels.

In the waiting hall, there were quite a few people like Lu Yu who were preparing to book a refining room, but they were all concentrated in the negotiation room of the mid- to low-grade refining room.

There are not many people in the negotiation room for top-grade houses, and there are even fewer people in the negotiation room for top-grade houses.

Lu Yu did not skimp on the spiritual stones and walked directly into the negotiation room of the top-grade weapon refining room.

He didn't want the rare materials he had worked so hard to obtain to fail because the ground fire temporarily failed to meet the requirements.
