Longevity: From Being Pushed By The Witch

After returning to the room, Ji Boying was too lazy to meditate and simply lazily lay down on the bed.

He took out the secret technique book that Li Pu had given him. The book was yellowed and even a bit old, indicating that it had been around for quite some time.

However...

The writing on it was exceptionally clear.

"The Secret Technique to Conceal One's Identity as a Sword Cultivator"

(；?＿?)

Is this name serious?

Why does it seem so outrageous?!

Outrageous...

Wait a minute!

Could this be something Li Pu made up himself?

Ji Boying's mouth twitched, and after hesitating for a moment, he still chose to study it.

After about half an hour, Ji Boying finally roughly scanned through the entire book.

Wow...

This secret technique is simply incredible!

With this secret technique, as long as one doesn't actively expose themselves, no one can tell that they are a sword cultivator! Even someone with a higher cultivation level than oneself wouldn't be able to detect it with their probing techniques.

Of course, this secret technique can only conceal the aura, sword intent, and sword qi of a sword cultivator.

As for the Body Refining Realm, it cannot be hidden.

But this is enough. When used to ambush others, it often catches them off guard.

After all, when ordinary cultivators encounter sword cultivators, they can't help but be on guard and even elevate their cultivation level in certain situations.

This puts sword cultivators at a disadvantage in battles.

Although sword cultivators have the strongest killing power among all cultivators, they are restricted because they are treated differently.

If one can conceal their identity as a sword cultivator and catch their opponents off guard in battle, the effect would be absolutely amazing!

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Ji Boying's mouth, and then he directly put this secret technique into his storage bag.

He glanced at Li Yueyao, who was sitting next to him.

With just a glance, she understood and walked over to Ji Boying.

Taking off her clothes, revealing her unparalleled beauty, and then... slowly lowering herself onto Ji Boying.

---

After a few more days, Li Pu's injuries had already recovered about eighty to ninety percent.

In the council chamber, he handed a storage ring to Ji Boying and said, "I have already informed the trading company. The flying ship will arrive in Zhengyang City in three days at most."

"As for this ring, it's something I need to hand over to the trading company. After Mr. Ji arrives at the headquarters, please help me deliver it."

"Alright."

Ji Boying nodded slightly and carefully put the ring into his embrace.

"Brother Ji..."

At this moment, Li Pu chuckled and said, "I'm curious, what are your plans for the future, Brother Ji?"

Ji Boying was slightly stunned at the words.

The same person, the same words, the same environment...

Even the tone was the same as before.

But this time, what Ji Boying heard was not a probe, but a few more sincere words.

Ji Boying took a deep breath and said, "What do you think, Brother Li?"

"Me?"

Li Pu looked directly into Ji Boying's eyes and said, "Is Brother Ji serious?"

"Of course!"

Looking at Ji Boying's eyes, which were neither fake nor insincere, Li Pu smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "The chaos of the demonic path has become a foregone conclusion. There is no peace in the Five Continents anymore. No matter what choice Brother Ji makes, he cannot escape it."

"So... instead of passively avoiding it, why not accept it openly?"

"What does it mean to accept it openly?"

Ji Boying couldn't help but tease.

"Join the Wandao Trading Company!"

Li Pu said straightforwardly,

"The Wandao Trading Company may not be the best choice, but it will definitely not be the wrong choice."

After looking at the tea in front of him for a moment of hesitation, Ji Boying arched his hand and said,

"Thank you, Brother Li, for your sincere words. I will consider it carefully."

After saying that, Ji Boying bid farewell and left the meeting hall.

"Brother Ji, due to my identity, there is only so much I can say."

"I hope you can join the trading company... In this chaotic world of demonic cultivation, even the top sects and aristocratic families find it difficult to protect themselves, let alone us?"

As a core member, Li Pu naturally knew more information than Ji Boying.

Since he recognized Ji Boying as a friend, he sincerely hoped that the other party would join the trading company.

---

After leaving the meeting hall, Ji Boying felt a wave of annoyance.

Originally, he wanted to take the opportunity to draw more talismans, but when he picked up the brush, he felt empty inside. Without even trying, Ji Boying knew that these talismans would never be completed.

Sensing Ji Boying's abnormality, Li Yueyao walked behind him in a very understanding manner.

She gently embraced Ji Boying and used her hands to gently press on his temples.

"Do you have something on your mind, young master?"

"Sort of."

Ji Boying replied indifferently.

He closed his eyes slightly, enjoying Li Yueyao's exquisite skills.

In his mind, he constantly weighed the pros and cons of joining the Wandao Trading Company.

The reason why he hesitated until now was not because Ji Boying was being pretentious, but simply because he was afraid of death.

Now that he had the Goldfinger, as long as he could continue to communicate with his wives, achieving the Great Dao was only a matter of time.

He didn't need to take risks like others, nor did he need to strive for so-called opportunities.

If possible, he even wanted to retire with his two wives, find a place where no one would go, and cultivate a few acres of spiritual fields to sustain themselves.

Even if he wanted to eat meat sometimes, with his proficiency in talisman dao, he had more than enough ability to hunt and kill demonic beasts.

It was precisely because of this that Ji Boying cherished his life even more and became more afraid of death.

But the downside of retirement was the lack of resources.

He had the Goldfinger, so it didn't matter, but it was different for his wives!

Whether it was Xiaoning'er or Ye Qingqing, their aptitudes were not considered excellent. If they were to retire to a place where no one would go, their future achievements would at most be Gold Core. Over time...

It would inevitably come to an end.

If they joined the trading company, as long as their status as guest officials continued to rise, they wouldn't have to worry about the cultivation environment and resources.

By then, with just a little help, both wives could form their Gold Cores, and even Nascent Soul wouldn't be too difficult.

However, the risks of joining the trading company were much greater than retirement.

Ji Boying had not yet grown up, and his Body Refining cultivation was only comparable to Gold Core.

A Nascent Soul cultivator was already the limit he could bear, let alone Soul Formation above Nascent Soul.

Especially in the current situation between the righteous and demonic sides, the Wandao Trading Company was originally neutral and would not be affected. But this time, for some reason, the demonic cultivators wanted to exterminate the Wandao Trading Company!

In such an environment, regardless of who wins or loses, with Ji Boying's current strength and cultivation, he would probably be unable to escape the fate of becoming a sacrifice.

"Hoo--"

Ji Boying let out a long breath.

He opened his eyes, grabbed Li Yueyao's wrist, and pulled her into his embrace.

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out as Li Yueyao's clothes shattered.

Her fair skin was no longer covered, completely exposed under the spiritual lamp.

Ji Boying pressed his hand against the back of Li Yueyao's head, roaring like a wild beast...

"Kneel!"
