Lu Yu himself is fine, but Ling'er, who indulges in pleasure every night, is starting to struggle.

Although he often goes out to catch some wild game, it is not always available.

Moreover, there are ferocious beasts near the Shengling Mountain, and it is easy to encounter danger.

If Ling'er could eat the spiritual valley and spiritual meat, she would naturally be able to strengthen her body, prolong her life, and increase her lifespan.

Of course, if Lu Yu himself eats it, he will become even more powerful.

Lu Yu covered his wife with a blanket and looked at her thin but happy expression as she leaped out of bed.

"Husband, where are you going? Let me make breakfast for you." Ling'er said, moving to get up.

In the past few days, Lu Yu didn't let her get up early, but instead pressed her to practice for a long time.

She was exhausted from the practice, but today Lu Yu didn't join her as usual and instead got up early, which surprised her.

"It's fine, you can sleep a little longer. I'm going to the Shengling Mountain market to buy some food." Hearing this, Ling'er immediately showed a worried expression.

Inside the Shengling Mountain, there are ferocious beasts and poisonous insects. Even the village they are in is filled with prohibitions set up by immortals. It is likely dangerous for her husband to go there.

But Lu Yu comforted her a few times and then left.

Walking over a hill, stepping on the newly melted snow, he no longer had the desolate and depressed look he had before. Instead, he looked refreshed and clear-minded.

"Xiao Lu Zi, I heard you got married not long ago. Congratulations!" Lu Yu was walking when suddenly a congratulatory voice came from behind him.

"Sister Qin." Lu Yu turned his head and smiled.

He saw a graceful and delicate female cultivator sitting barefoot on the back of a black cow, smiling charmingly.

The black cow under her had golden scales on its horns, an extraordinary and spirited creature with a trace of dragon bloodline.

This female cultivator's name was Qin Qingrou, an outer disciple of the Shengling Mountain. She was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and to Lu Yu, she could be considered a senior.

It was thanks to these outer disciples who grazed their animals everywhere that the surroundings of the Shengling Mountain were relatively safe. Otherwise, there would be ferocious beasts everywhere, making the journey dangerous and difficult.

It was also Qin Qingrou who showed Lu Yu the way out of the Shengling Mountain.

Qin Qingrou had just returned from grazing her spiritual cow and coincidentally met him.

The two of them chatted along the way and soon arrived at the market inside the Shengling Mountain.

Lu Yu stopped in front of a three-story shop and bid farewell to Qin Qingrou.

Entering the shop, a servant greeted him with a smile, "What do you need, sir?"

The servant was a mortal and couldn't tell the cultivation level of the customer. He treated everyone with great respect. However, the shopkeeper behind him turned his nose up and went to the counter, busily calculating on the abacus.

The shopkeeper clearly had no intention of personally serving Lu Yu.

"Young man, do you buy spiritual beast pills here?" Lu Yu asked the servant.

"Sir, we do, we do."

"May I ask how much you buy the Great Nourishing Pill for?" Lu Yu finished speaking and took out a small bag of Great Nourishing Pills from his storage ring and placed it on the ground.

The servant was initially disappointed. The Great Nourishing Pill was the cheapest and least profitable item. Even if it was one or two pills, it wouldn't be worth a low-grade spiritual stone.

But when he saw the small bag of Great Nourishing Pills on the ground, he smiled and said, "Rest assured, we will definitely offer you the most fair price."

Although the Great Nourishing Pill was cheap, it was a necessary item in every shop. The Shengling Mountain was famous for breeding and taming spiritual beasts. The cultivators inside the mountain, even those with slightly better conditions, would raise some spiritual beasts.

At the very least, they would have a mount to travel on.

And the Great Nourishing Pill was the food for these spiritual beasts. Naturally, it was in high demand. This small bag of Great Nourishing Pills would be enough to sell for one or two days.

"If you have more Great Nourishing Pills in the future, feel free to bring them to sell."

"One bag, one hundred pills, three low-grade spiritual stones."

The shopkeeper behind the counter said without even looking up. Lu Yu frowned slightly. If he sold them on the street, he might be able to sell them for six low-grade spiritual stones, but it would also require time and effort.

To avoid attracting attention, Lu Yu decided to sell them to the shop.

He nodded and sold a bag of Dashi pills. After that, he bought some leftover materials for refining Dashi pills and didn't forget to buy Linggu Lingrou for Ling'er's nourishment.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yu had spent all the spiritual stones he had earned, and even had to pay an extra low-grade spiritual stone.

After making the purchases, he immediately headed home.

He returned home in less than half a day.

Seeing Lu Yu's return, Ling'er sat in the courtyard with a smile on her face.

"Husband, you're back."

Ling'er's father was also a disciple on the outskirts of the Ling Mountain. He married a mortal woman, but on a trip to the Holy Ling Mountain market, he was eaten by a tiger-shaped spiritual beast.

With the pillar of the family gone, hardships followed. Even Ling'er's mother died of illness, and she was sold to Xiangchun Garden.

Although she heard that the tiger beast had long been killed by other disciples on the outskirts of the Holy Ling Mountain, the incident of her family going out became a shadow in Ling'er's heart.

Lu Yu gave Ling'er the purchased Linggu Lingrou and smiled, saying, "I'm back, and I brought something to nourish your body."

Upon hearing this, Ling'er blushed and shyly took the food into the house.

And of course, Lu Yu was not idle either. He spent the afternoon refining Dashi pills.

At dinner, Ling'er served a pot of soup cooked with Lingrou.

Lu Yu filled a bowl of steaming hot meat soup for her and smiled, saying, "Ling'er, eat more Lingrou and Linggu to nourish your body. You've worked hard during this time."

Upon hearing this, Ling'er's face turned red. Although she had only been married to Lu Yu for a few days, she had already experienced his strength.

The little plumpness she had gained at Xiangchun Garden had also diminished, so it was indeed a bit hard for her.

But amidst the hardships, there was sweetness and happiness.

[Wife's happiness index: 100.]

[Activated Linggen Gathering Spirit Bonus.]

Can this also work?

Feeling the speed at which spiritual energy surged, Lu Yu's face showed surprise as he received the prompt in his mind.

Ling'er shyly nodded and said, "Husband, you should eat more too."

After dinner, Ling'er went to bed early, her heart filled with worries.

As a mere mortal, being able to eat nourishing Linggu Lingrou and prolong her life was all thanks to her immortal husband.

But in the years to come, when she grew old and faded, would her husband still be so attentive to her?

In fact, she hoped that her husband would neglect his cultivation, gradually distancing himself from the path of immortality, so that the two of them could be happy together in their remaining years, growing old together.

After finishing his grooming, Lu Yu felt the Linggu Lingrou he had eaten gradually transforming into vitality and jumped onto the bed.

That night, with Ling'er's pleading cries, Lu Yu's spiritual roots continued to improve.

"Ling'er, tomorrow I will teach you the Five Animal Exercises," Lu Yu embraced his delicate wife and said gently.

"Ah? The Five Animal Exercises?" Ling'er trembled at the mention of it. Her husband had already shown her enough tricks in the past few days.

Her face blushed with embarrassment, and she quickly begged, "Husband, I can't do it, please spare me."

"Silly Ling'er, where did you get that idea? The Five Animal Exercises are a method of strengthening the body. Since you haven't embarked on the path of immortality, if you can exercise more, you can increase your lifespan in the future."

Lu Yu smiled and said gently.

He could also sense that although his wife had enjoyed herself just now, she was also a bit exhausted. If this continued, in a few years, she would likely develop health problems.

Only when his wife was healthy and happy could his path to immortality be smoother. Besides, he couldn't bear to see Ling'er's pitiful begging appearance.

If there was a chance in the future, he would definitely buy some elixirs to increase Ling'er's lifespan. Lu Yu secretly made up his mind.

His path to immortality was related to his wife. Whether his wife could live a long life was crucial to his own longevity.

Only when the two of them were in harmony and walked hand in hand could they avoid obstacles on the path to immortality.

After eating the Linggu Lingrou, Ling'er rested for a while and felt a little more strength.

She quietly hugged Lu Yu under the covers, causing Lu Yu to shudder.

You naughty Ling'er, launching a surprise attack?

Tonight is destined to be sleepless.
