Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Lu Yu quickly thought about his future plans and began to get busy.

Over the years, whenever there were signs of abundant spiritual energy, he would start refining the Beast Spirit Pill.

...

Another winter arrived.

This year, there was plenty of moisture and extreme cold, so there was even more snow than in previous years.

Even if the warm winter sun did its best, the snow on the small path remained thick.

During the summer this year, the fierce beasts had a small outbreak again.

According to the news from Liu the shopkeeper, this was once again manipulated by the people of the Holy Spirit Mountain.

The prices in the market slightly dropped and immediately rebounded.

It is said that the Holy Spirit Mountain is playing with something new, dividing the previous large-scale outbreaks of fierce beasts every five or ten years into smaller outbreaks of small-scale fierce beasts.

If this can be achieved, the Holy Spirit Mountain will undoubtedly attract a large number of cultivators to settle in, and even have the ability to ascend to a higher level of sect power.

And this news gradually spread in the market.

So after the winter, there were many more foreign cultivators.

Even in the village, there were not enough places, and cultivators began to build residences outside the village.

But as the number of people increased, the environment and safety in the village became worse.

The news of the opening of Yixianju had also been informed by Liu the shopkeeper early on.

But as for the price, even high-level cultivator Qin Qingrou shouted that she couldn't afford it.

On this day, the two of them had just returned home from the market, and Qin Qingrou, who was not giving up, went to inquire at the Holy Spirit Mountain's external miscellaneous tasks office.

The office, which originally only dealt with miscellaneous tasks for scattered cultivators, was now renamed the Holy Spirit Mountain's external general affairs office.

The matters handled by the general affairs office gradually expanded from miscellaneous tasks to selling immortal mansions and collecting rent from the market...

"Why is it so expensive!" Qin Qingrou complained with a bitter face.

"This time, not only did they release Yixianju, but they also plan to build two more clusters of immortal mansions near the market."

"But the prices are so expensive that it scares people."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but frown. The Holy Spirit Mountain was becoming more and more business-oriented.

Since controlling the outbreaks of fierce beasts, the number of cultivators settling in the Holy Spirit Mountain has been increasing.

Not only were the high-end immortal mansions full, with no vacancies, but there were also more and more cultivator residences outside the village.

There were even rumors that several more markets would be built.

"What is the rent for the immortal mansions?"

"Twenty medium-grade spirit stones!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. With his current earning speed, he could cover it.

"This rent is still reasonable. If we find someone to share..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Qingrou interrupted, "Xiaolu, don't misunderstand. That's the cheapest stacked immortal mansion."

"If it's a separate small immortal mansion, the price will increase by another five medium-grade spirit stones. Only that kind of mansion can be shared."

"What? Stacked immortal mansions also cost twenty medium-grade spirit stones!"

He currently worked hard all year round and only earned more than fifty medium-grade spirit stones. Just the rent alone would cost twenty medium-grade spirit stones, which was indeed beyond his consideration.

But if he encountered bandits, it would only be a matter of robbing and killing one or two cultivators. But if his luck was bad and he encountered a tough opponent, it would endanger his own life.

"But if I add some more spirit stones, I can rent a better immortal mansion."

"It is said that those mansions with a rent of thirty have quiet rooms with spirit springs and spirit eyes, and the spiritual energy is brought in from the Holy Spirit Mountain."

"It's thousands of times better than where we live now."

"It is said that those quiet rooms are quite large, and it's not a problem to divide them into two or three small rooms."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but ponder.

Within the Holy Spirit Mountain, there are two interconnected large spiritual veins. It is said that during the peak of spiritual energy, spiritual milk can condense on the branches and leaves of the spiritual trees.

If one can successfully tap into these veins, cultivators will flock to it like ducks. Even if they have to spend twenty or thirty medium-grade spiritual stones, it wouldn't be considered a big loss.

The abundance of spiritual energy is of utmost importance for cultivators when choosing their caves.

It is also the desire of cultivators who are eager for longevity on the path of immortality to be willing to spend on this.

"Ah, it can be a bit expensive, but I do want to rent. I just don't know if I'll be able to snatch it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's heart stirred. Besides the Yixian Residence, it seemed that the two newly built residences were not yet completed, and it seemed that he didn't even have the qualifications to rent.

But this matter should be dealt with sooner rather than later. After returning home, Lu Yu took out Liu's shopkeeper's sound transmission jade slip and left a message: "Shopkeeper Liu, if there is any news about the residences, please inform me."

At night, Lu Yu's cultivation of spiritual roots and divine consciousness showed a significant decrease compared to usual, and Ling'er and Wanwan immediately sensed it.

Under the concerned inquiries of the two women, Lu Yu finally expressed his worries about renting a mansion without qualifications.

Upon hearing this, Wanwan's face flushed slightly, and she said, "Husband, don't worry."

"I suppose each shop also has rental quotas for attracting cultivators who refine tools and pills."

"Husband is an alchemist, so perhaps you can give it a try."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu slapped his forehead and suddenly realized.

That's right, he was a sixth-grade alchemist of the Earth Rank, and he could refine the popular Beast Spirit Pill.

Shopkeeper Liu might have some special quotas.

He looked at Wanwan, who was gentle and dignified but had a hint of spring in her eyes, and kissed her passionately on her face.

"Wanwan is right. Next time we go to the market, I'll ask Shopkeeper Liu in person."

After saying that, Lu Yu mounted his horse, full of energy, and made Wanwan beg for mercy with her disheveled hair.

The next day, just as the sky was getting bright, Lu Yu hurriedly took the two women, who had not slept for long, for morning exercises and then entered the quiet room.

Thinking that renting a mansion near the market would cost a lot of spiritual stones, he couldn't help but speed up the production of the Beast Spirit Pill.

Ling'er and Wanwan lazily got up close to lunchtime and prepared lunch.

While eating, Lu Yu was still considering whether to have an extra practice session with the two women during the afternoon.

But seeing the gradually thinning faces of the two women, he had to suppress his desires and enter the quiet room after the meal.

He thought it would be an ordinary day, but unexpectedly, at dinner time, as soon as Lu Yu sat at the table, he noticed that Wanwan's face was gloomy, and there was an additional set of five finger marks on her left side.

Ling'er brought a pot of spiritual meat soup to the table and hesitated before speaking, "Husband, Wanwan..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Wanwan immediately interrupted her.

"Sister, let's eat."

While gesturing with her eyes to interrupt Ling'er, she also served her a dish.

Lu Yu put down his chopsticks and asked in a deep voice, "Wanwan, who bullied you?"

"No one, it's my own fault..."

Ling'er couldn't stand it and quickly explained.

It turned out that Ling'er was taken by Wanwan to Xiangchun Garden to inquire about her older brother's whereabouts, but they were harassed by a promiscuous cultivator who had entered Xiangchun Garden.

After several refusals from Wanwan, she was slapped and scolded for not knowing what's good for her.

Ling'er paused for a moment and said with some relief, "Fortunately, the old lady at Xiangchun Garden intervened in time, otherwise things would have escalated."

"It's been so many years, husband, you should advise Wanwan to let it go."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu immediately understood what had happened.

However, Xiangchun Garden was a special place, and it would be difficult to find that cultivator now.

Even if Lu Yu wanted to help Wanwan seek justice, he was powerless.

"Husband, it's all Wanwan's fault. Please punish her."

"I won't go to inquire about my older brother's whereabouts in the future."

Wanwan's face was filled with sorrow and apology. Cultivators often resorted to sword fights at the slightest disagreement. If she caused a great disaster for her husband because of her own affairs, she would truly be unforgivable.

If it weren't for Lu Yu, she would probably still be in Xiangchun Garden, or even forced to leave due to the increasing number of cultivators. Her situation would be even more miserable.
