Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Lu Yu didn't rush to reply to Liu Shopkeeper. He couldn't figure out why Liu Shopkeeper would come looking for him.

Closing oneself off means not coming out until one's cultivation level has been improved. It has only been about half a year.

After hesitating for a long time, he replied, "Liu Shopkeeper, I have made some progress in my cultivation. I should be able to come out of seclusion soon."

The jade slip quickly flickered again.

Liu Shopkeeper said, "The steward of the Holy Spirit Mountain has successfully advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage and is preparing to hold a banquet at the Drunken Immortal Tower. He wants me to invite Fellow Daoist Lu Yu to attend..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Liu Shopkeeper. After I come out of seclusion, I will definitely discuss this matter at the Wailing Spirit Tower."

The next day, Lu Yu cleaned himself up and hurried to the Wailing Spirit Tower.

As soon as he entered the Wailing Spirit Tower, Liu Shopkeeper greeted him with a smile.

Smiling and bowing, Liu Shopkeeper congratulated him, "Fellow Daoist Lu has truly been blessed by the heavens, advancing to a higher realm."

Lu Yu smiled and returned the bow, saying, "Liu Shopkeeper, you're teasing me. I was able to break through to a higher realm because I made some progress in refining Spirit Beast Pills and spent a considerable amount of spirit stones and spirit pills."

Liu Shopkeeper nodded in agreement and said, "Indeed, cultivators like us should buy some pills to assist in our cultivation."

"I suppose the pills that helped Fellow Daoist Lu break through are not ordinary?"

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Yu said, "I was fortunate enough to acquire them at the Good Stuff Exchange held by the Qingyun Pill Shop."

Liu Shopkeeper suddenly realized and exclaimed in surprise, "Fellow Daoist Lu, I heard that the Good Stuff Exchange has a very high threshold. I didn't expect you to be able to participate. That's truly remarkable."

"It was all thanks to a senior expert who helped me. That's why I was able to enter."

Lu Yu smiled.

Liu Shopkeeper immediately showed a pleasing smile on his face and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, when you start selling Spirit Beast Pills, please don't favor others over us."

"I would never dare to."

"I have always been grateful to the Wailing Spirit Tower for purchasing the Spirit Beast Pills I refined. I would never show ingratitude by favoring others."

Lu Yu pretended to be grateful, which made Liu Shopkeeper also sigh and shout, "Of course, of course."

Since the matchmaker arranged by Liu Shopkeeper didn't succeed, he had always thought that it would upset the steward of the Holy Spirit Mountain behind the Wailing Spirit Tower, and he would have no chance to have any connection with that steward in the future.

Unexpectedly, the steward invited him to the banquet celebrating his advancement to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Regardless of the other party's intentions, if he were to neglect this invitation, it would make the other party think that he didn't know what was good for him.

Rarely going out, Lu Yu took out some of the Spirit Beast Pills he had refined over the past six months and sold them to the Wailing Spirit Tower.

He also went to the Qingyun Pill Shop and handed over some of the Spirit Beast Pills agreed upon in the spirit contract.

He also bought some remnants of fierce beasts.

Now that he was cultivating with Qin Qingrou, they had the advantage of controlling spiritual beasts, so they couldn't waste it.

Moreover, his spiritual consciousness was higher than that of ordinary cultivators, so it was not a problem for him to control multiple spiritual beast souls at the same time.

Even if he didn't use them himself, it was good to sell them.

If it weren't for the boost from the spiritual beast tamer, he would probably never be able to control spiritual beast souls.

Leaving the Qingyun Pill Shop, he looked at the increasing number of cultivators on the streets, his gaze constantly scanning.

Compared to before, most of the cultivators passing through the streets were scattered cultivators, some of whom couldn't even afford Dao robes.

So the streets always seemed a bit chaotic.

But at this moment, the cultivators passing through the streets were all wearing standard Dao robes and walking in groups of two or three.

Obviously, these people were cultivators from the thirteen external sects, and the occasional scattered cultivators also stayed close to the roadside, hurrying along.

It seemed as if staying for one more second would bring great danger.

Lu Yu, seeing the situation, couldn't help but quicken his pace and rush towards Tenglong Residence.

A burst of white light flashed as the teleportation array activated, and he saw Ruyue walking towards him.

It seems she's going to the market to handle some business.

Lu Yu, upon seeing this, bowed from a distance, hoping to quickly pass by her.

"Lu Fellow Daoist! Have you finished your closed-door cultivation? Congratulations on reaching a higher level!"

Ruyue quickly approached and smiled.

Lu Yu took a barely noticeable step towards his own immortal mansion, feeling a sense of unease.

It seems that Ruyue wants to get close to him.

Ruyue smiled and said, "Lu Fellow Daoist, our Witch Clan has always been kind-hearted. Don't easily believe others' accusations against us."

"Now that you've reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, even if I had ill intentions towards you, I wouldn't be able to harm you in a short time."

"I only managed to break through with the help of medicinal stones. I wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Fellow Daoist Ruyue."

"Regardless, congratulations on getting closer to the path of immortality."

Lu Yu smiled and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist. I have some matters to attend to, so I won't accompany you."

As soon as he finished speaking, before Lu Yu could even take a step, Ruyue raised her hand to stop him.

"Lu Fellow Daoist, if you keep avoiding me like this, it will make me sad. Or is it that you're in a hurry to return to your immortal mansion to favor your concubines?"

A blush appeared on Ruyue's face as she smiled coquettishly. "They are just mortals and low-level Qi Refining cultivators. They are not a match for Lu Fellow Daoist."

"How about this, I can introduce you to some female cultivators from our clan. I guarantee that they are all stunningly beautiful and exceptional in appearance."

"Of course, if I can catch Fellow Daoist's eye, it would be my honor. What does Fellow Daoist think?"

As Ruyue spoke, she approached and embraced Lu Yu in an extremely intimate manner after a gust of fragrant wind.

She exhaled gently and said, "I will definitely satisfy Fellow Daoist. I am willing to share one husband with my sisters."

Lu Yu kept his spiritual sense focused on his spiritual platform, only looking at his hands and feet, not daring to look at Ruyue.

Even with this guard, he still felt a surge of evil fire within him, barely maintaining his clarity.

He calmly broke free from Ruyue's embrace and smiled, "Fellow Daoist has exceptional talent and is a high-level cultivator. I dare not have any presumptions."

"In a few days, I will attend a celebration banquet hosted by the inner sect of the Holy Spirit Mountain. I am currently worried about the gift, so I have no interest in romance."

"I hope Fellow Daoist will spare me."

Ruyue's face showed a hint of surprise. Although high-level alchemists were in high demand, it was unlikely for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to receive an invitation.

But anything was possible, especially since Lu Yu was able to obtain a Daoist robe from Qingyun Pill Shop. It was possible that he had some connections to obtain an invitation.

"Lu Fellow Daoist has a wide circle of friends. I admire that."

After saying that, Ruyue withdrew her charm and let go of Lu Yu's arm.

"However, if Fellow Daoist ever wants to experience the taste of a Witch Clan female cultivator, you can come find me anytime."

After Ruyue mentioned Lu Yu's high-level alchemist status and fourth level of Qi Refining, the Witch Clan quickly responded.

They wanted to try to bring him into their clan.

Even if the two women had to personally serve him, they were willing to give him some benefits.

A few days later.

Late at night, the room was filled with turbulent winds and the sounds of battle.

Ling'er's eyes were filled with affection, and she wanted to entwine herself around Lu Yu's waist.

Unfortunately, after just a few moments, the begging for mercy continued.

But as soon as he dismounted, Ling'er still clung to Lu Yu, unwilling to separate from him even for a moment.
