Longevity Immortal Fate: Begins with Dao Companion

Jun Qingyu's words really left Gu Changsheng at a loss...

Interrupting the rhythm of what he originally wanted to say...

How did she think of recruiting him?

Is it just because he's handsome?

"Really, Fellow Daoist, your talent should not be buried in this small place of Wu Country. Since we are here this time, it is an opportunity for you. As long as you join our Jun family, I can pay for your fairy boat fare."

"If you are worried about your family blaming you, it doesn't matter. I can accompany you to your family. Your family will definitely not dare to hold you responsible."

"So, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and join our Jun family, and we will become immortals together!"

Jun Qingyu's words were sincere and heartfelt. If it were an ordinary cultivator from Wu Country, they would have long been convinced and eager to join the Jun family, willing to do anything for them.

But Gu Changsheng was not like that.

Joining another family might bring some good things, but in return, there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Once you join someone else's family and gain something, you have to pay double or even multiple times in return!

Like when he joined the Huo family, he only got a few wives, but the contributions he made to the family were enough to make the clan worship him.

Gu Changsheng glanced at Jun Qingyu indifferently, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm sorry, I don't want to join your Jun family."

Jun Qingyu immediately became anxious, "Fellow Daoist, please think it over carefully. Joining our Jun family is absolutely beneficial and harmless!"

"You--"

"Alright, no need to say more." Gu Changsheng glanced at Jun Qingyu indifferently, "You were eavesdropping on me just now, right?"

"Yes." Jun Qingyu admitted openly, "But I wasn't eavesdropping, I was observing your battle situation. I..."

"Since you have observed me, you need to pay a price. After all, handsome cultivators like me only appear in novels, right? So after seeing such a peerless handsome guy like me, shouldn't you take out tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Low Grade Spirit Stones?"

Jun Qingyu: ???

She looked at Gu Changsheng with a completely dumbfounded expression.

She had never seen such a shameless person!!

How could someone be so shameless!

"Are you joking with me?" Jun Qingyu asked with a hint of disbelief.

Gu Changsheng glanced at her indifferently, "Do I look like I'm joking?"

"If you don't want to join our Jun family, let's just be friends. There's no need for this, right?"

"Be friends?" Gu Changsheng sneered, "Why would a cultivator from the Bai family like me need a friend like you?"

"You're from the Bai family?" Jun Qingyu was taken aback, "I am friends with Bai Luofei, the fairy of your Bai family, so you can't lay a hand on me."

"By the way, with someone as talented as you in the Bai family, they still let you stay in Wu Country? They didn't bring you to the Great Ji Dynasty? Bai Luofei doesn't cherish talents enough. It's better to join our Jun--"

"Shut up!"

In the blink of an eye, Gu Changsheng had already rushed in front of her, his expression icy as he looked at Jun Qingyu, "Don't waste time, do you want to live or die?"

His aura burst out, even though it was only the aura of an early Foundation Building stage cultivator, it was as terrifying as a fierce tiger standing in front of her, making people tremble with fear.

Jun Qingyu was scared and trembling, not daring to take a breath.

A Body Refining cultivator, so terrifying!

Gu Changsheng dared to speak to Jun Qingyu in such a manner mainly because she was only at the Foundation Building Late Stage, and he could tell that she had developed a sense of "this person is so terrifying, I cannot defeat them" towards him.

So Gu Changsheng dared to be so presumptuous.

"Roar!!!"

Xiao Hei had recovered some of its injuries at this time and looked at Gu Changsheng with a fierce expression, following her lead.

One person and one demon stared at her, making Jun Qingyu feel overwhelmed.

A drop of cold sweat ran down Jun Qingyu's forehead, "What do you want..."

"Since you are from the Jun family, from the Great Ji Dynasty, you must have a lot of good things on you, right? So, if you want to stay alive, bring out some of the good things on you."

"I'm not asking for much, just a hundred thousand or eighty thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones, a few thousand talismans, and a few hundred bottles of pills."

"Impossible!" Jun Qingyu shouted, "I don't have that many things!"

"Then you don't want to live?" Gu Changsheng looked at her coldly.

Xiao Hei also bared its teeth and stared at her fiercely.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!" Xiao Hei shouted, although Jun Qingyu didn't understand what it was saying, the threat was definitely clear.

Jun Qingyu felt even more pressure.

Just one powerful Gu Changsheng was already too much for her to handle, let alone a Foundation Building Late Stage Demonic Beast...

How could she possibly win this...

She could also tell that Gu Changsheng had a very strong attitude towards the resources on her.

"I, I don't have that many things..." Jun Qingyu said helplessly.

"Then how much do you have?" Gu Changsheng asked.

He didn't actually need that many resources, after all, if Jun Qingyu really had that many resources, she could have created her own family in the Wu Kingdom.

"I can only give you a maximum of ten thousand Low Grade Spirit Stones, as for talismans and pills, I can't bring out more, I can only give you ten Rank Two High Grade ones each."

"Spirit Stones are fine, as for talismans and pills, I want Rank Two Supreme Grade ones."

"You're robbing me!!!" Jun Qingyu angrily shouted.

Gu Changsheng grinned, "What illusion made you think that I'm not robbing right now?"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and bring them!"

Jun Qingyu glared at Gu Changsheng fiercely, "Here you go!"

She gritted her teeth and took out the resources Gu Changsheng had mentioned from her storage ring.

"Here you go!"

Gu Changsheng took the resources with great joy.

His little treasury had gained a little more!

"Is that enough?" Jun Qingyu said impatiently.

"Well, not bad. Consider my business with you settled, you can leave now." Gu Changsheng waved his hand.

Jun Qingyu asked, "What's your name?"

Gu Changsheng thought for a moment, "Bai Fujun."

"Lord Bai??" Jun Qingyu muttered with an expression that seemed to say, "Are there really people who go by that name?"

Gu Changsheng pointed at himself and said, "As you can see, isn't that what you see?"

Jun Qingyu remained silent.

Suddenly, Jun Qingyu thought of something and looked at Gu Changsheng, saying, "Lord...Bai...right? Since we've met and there's no animosity between us, why don't we explore the ruins together?"

"You can rest assured, I, Jun Qingyu, am not a petty person. I will never betray you. Until the end of this expedition, even after the exploration of the ruins, we can still be partners!"

"You explore the ruins to obtain resources, right? I don't need those resources, they're useless to me. Moreover, I don't need them. The purpose of my exploration is very simple, it's to train my combat skills, nothing more."

"If we're together, our fighting power will be much stronger. Even if we face a peak Foundation Building Demonic Beast, maybe we'll have a chance to fight. What do you think?"

Her thoughts were also simple. Gu Changsheng had decent strength, and being with him could indeed improve her safety. Moreover, he was a Body Refining cultivator, even the Jun family didn't have Body Refining techniques.

If she could establish a good relationship with this guy and obtain his Body Refining techniques, wouldn't the family be grateful to her?

That's why she could let go of her hatred towards Gu Changsheng for robbing her and had the idea of exploring the ruins together.

Gu Changsheng glanced at her calmly and fell into deep thought.

In fact, he wanted to be alone, but what Jun Qingyu said made sense.

The ruins were still very dangerous. Although Jun Qingyu only had the strength of the late stage of Foundation Building, she came from the Great Ji Dynasty and definitely had a way to save her life. If he was with her, the danger would be reduced.

And by following her, they could also avoid some battles with cultivators from the Great Ji Dynasty.

"Agree to her. The reputation of the Jun family's cultivators in the Great Ji Dynasty is still guaranteed. They wouldn't deceive people. Moreover, this girl seems extraordinary. She should be a talented direct disciple of the Jun family. Establishing a good relationship with her would be helpful," Ji Wenxiang's voice sounded.

Gu Changsheng remained silent for a moment and said, "But Master, I just robbed her..."

Ji Wenxiang said, "It's fine. Look at her, she's not very clever and has a carefree personality. She probably doesn't mind that incident. Just deceive her a little from now on."

"Alright."

"Are you serious?" Gu Changsheng looked at Jun Qingyu suspiciously.

"Naturally!" Jun Qingyu said firmly, "I, Jun Qingyu, keep my word. When I said we would be partners in exploring the ruins, it means we fight together. I won't retreat in the face of danger!"

Gu Changsheng nodded.

He felt that Jun Qingyu wasn't like those arrogant people from the Great Ji Dynasty. She was actually quite nice.

"But..." Jun Qingyu said.

"You're thinking about how we'll divide the treasures if we find any, right?" Jun Qingyu smiled, "Don't worry, if we find any resources, we'll split them 70-30. I'll take 30%."

"70-30?" Gu Changsheng glanced at her calmly, "19-1! I take 90%, you take 10%."

Jun Qingyu: ...

She took a deep breath and shouted, "You really are a vampire!! I agree!"

Gu Changsheng scratched his ear and said, "If you agree, just agree. Why are you shouting so loudly?"

"Now let's exchange information. Which way did you come from?" Jun Qingyu asked seriously.

Gu Changsheng pointed at the cave in front of them and said, "I came from this way."

The gentleman nodded and pointed to the fork in the road behind him, "I came from here, but the path I took led to a dead end, so - we need to go this way into the forked cave."

She pointed to the other side.

Gu Changsheng nodded, "Let's go!"

The two quickly entered the cave on the other side.

...

"Baifu, may I ask what your innate talent is? Did you learn Body Refining techniques? By the way, how old are you this year? Do you have a marriage arrangement?"

In the silent cave, Jun Qingyu's questions kept coming.

Gu Changsheng was annoyed by her constant chatter, "Are you the census taker?"

Jun Qingyu laughed, "I'm just curious, what's wrong with asking? Don't be so stingy!"

Gu Changsheng couldn't be bothered to respond to her.

"Let me introduce myself again, you already know my name. I have the Profound Grade Earth Spirit Root, and the other four elemental roots are all Supreme Grade. I am also a formation master and can create some Rank Two simple formations, but I can't handle anything above Rank Two Middle Grade. I'm only in my forties this year, still a young girl."

Gu Changsheng couldn't help but glance at Jun Qingyu a few times.

This woman turned out to have a Profound Grade Earth Spirit Root?

What he lacked now was an Earth Spirit Root, so he could have all the elemental roots.

And this woman was also a formation master, a formation master in their Wu Kingdom was even more precious than spiritual stones.

Formations were different from talismans and pills. They required extremely high talent, and without talent, no matter how hard one studied, it would be difficult to become a formation master.

Of course, Gu Changsheng was just thinking about it.

Jun Qingyu's identity was definitely not simple, it was impossible for her to marry him.

"I've already opened up to you and told you all about myself, don't you have to tell me something about yourself?" Jun Qingyu said with a smile.

Gu Changsheng smiled and glanced at Jun Qingyu, "Sorry, I can't."

Jun Qingyu: ...

Damn, this person really doesn't know how to appreciate kindness!

"Hey, look at the light!"

Jun Qingyu casually looked and saw a beam of light ahead.

Gu Changsheng, with his divine soul, naturally saw it too.

The two ran quickly, and when they were dozens of meters away from the light, Gu Changsheng grabbed Jun Qingyu who was running.

"What are you doing?" Jun Qingyu looked at Gu Changsheng with a dumbfounded expression.

Gu Changsheng didn't say anything, he calmly looked ahead, "Get out!"

"Roar!!!"

"Ooo!!!"

"Crack, crack -"

The caves near the light suddenly exploded, and two strange creatures emerged from the caves.
