Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

As soon as this was mentioned,

Lin Xiu's eyes lit up, and his tone became somewhat urgent,

"Do you have any connections?"

"I don't have any connections, but if you don't mind sharing a place with someone, I know a place."

"Sharing a place..."

Lin Xiu became a little unwilling.

It's not that he likes peace and quiet, but sharing a place with someone he doesn't know doesn't give him a sense of security.

But there was still no news from Ge Dan, and he was indeed getting anxious.

"I wonder who this person I'll be sharing with..."

Hong Jie had long figured out his cautious personality and smiled lightly,

"This person is the son of an old acquaintance of mine, at the sixth level of Qi Refining. A few days ago, he had a falling out with his father and ran away, claiming to be self-reliant. He paid a year's rent and took over a two-story courtyard, but ended up becoming penniless. That's when he thought of sharing the place."

A two-story courtyard!

Lin Xiu was startled.

The rent for a single courtyard was twenty medium-grade spirit stones per year, and the price for a two-story courtyard was double that, a full sixty. Even if they shared the rent, it would still be thirty medium-grade spirit stones!

He immediately wanted to refuse and wait for news from Ge Dan.

Wouldn't it be better to save ten spirit stones and find a partner?

Wouldn't living alone in a courtyard be better than sharing?

But Hong Jie took out ten medium-grade spirit stones from her storage bag and stuffed them into his hand,

"To be honest, although my friend is angry and not talking to him on the surface, they have a deep father-son bond. He asked me to do him a favor and find someone trustworthy and unfamiliar to move in, just in case something happens, there will be someone to notify him."

Lin Xiu stared at Hong Jie in front of him, extremely suspicious that this second-generation young master was her and her old lover's illegitimate child. Otherwise, why would she be so dedicated in selling it and even make up the price difference?

"I don't know if I should ask, but who is your friend..."

Hong Jie remained silent, but pointed her hand towards Purple Cloud Peak in the distance!

Oh, it's related to Purple Cloud Sect!

His thoughts quickly turned. Since this person's background is related to Purple Cloud Sect, it means it will be much safer to share with him.

Isn't this what he's been looking for?

After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to move in first. After all, it seems to be more dangerous around here recently, and his life is more important.

If the person is difficult to deal with, he can always move out when Ge Dan has news.

Seeing him put away the spirit stones, Hong Jie knew he agreed.

She immediately smiled and took out a delicate token and a sound transmission talisman,

"This is the key to the courtyard's formation and my sound transmission talisman. Just imprint your and your wives' handprints on it, and you can come and go freely. Please, if there's anything, let me know."

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.

Lin Xiu's heart moved, "Why are you giving me this good opportunity?"

Hong Jie turned around and smiled at him,

"Because among the people I know, you have the least courage and are the most honest!"

Is that also an advantage?

Afterwards, Hong Jie sighed and seemed to mutter something softly, then turned and left with a twist of her waist.

Lin Xiu didn't hear what she said clearly, it seemed like a complaint, but that wasn't what he cared about.

There was still a person waiting in the room, about to become his partner.

Goldfinger finally had a chance to develop, and he didn't know what surprises it would bring.

The two women in the room were holding hands and whispering, and Qin Yawen kept nodding.

When Lin Xiu entered, she immediately stood up, bowed slightly, but seemed unaccustomed to it,

"Husband..."

Lin Xiu nodded and sat down on the chair with a decisive manner, taking a sip of spiritual tea.

"Now that you have agreed to marry into the Lin family and become my partner, let's talk about the rules first."

"Husband, please speak."

Lin Xiu put down the teacup and looked at the woman in front of him who dared not stand up,

"The first rule is that you are a concubine, and you must respect the main wife. Even though Xue'er is a mortal and you are a cultivator, you must remember this. If you violate it, you will be kicked out of the house!"

Li Yingxue seemed to have guessed that Lin Xiu would say this, but still looked at him moved.

Qin Yawen nodded without hesitation.

"Yes!"

"Well, the second rule is that as partners, we should treat each other sincerely!"

"That's natural."

"Um, the third rule... there isn't one, so get up!"

Huh?

Qin Yawen suddenly looked up, somewhat incredulous.

She thought that getting married, especially as a concubine, would come with a lot of rules.

But it turns out there are only two.

Li Yingxue smiled and pulled her up.

"Sister Wen, our family doesn't have many rules. The biggest rule is to take good care of our husband."

Lin Xiu added, "Although you are a concubine and don't need to prepare a bridal chamber or invite people to witness the ceremony, our family is different, so we still need to do that."

"Even for taking a concubine, we need to prepare a bridal chamber?"

Qin Yawen was surprised again.

Every woman dreams of wearing auspicious clothes and marrying into her husband's family in a grand manner.

But that is the treatment of a legal wife!

When taking a concubine, at most a few close friends are invited for a meal.

She thought she would regret this, but she didn't expect to receive such treatment.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

"Husband..."

Li Yingxue smiled faintly on the side.

"Sister, our husband is gentle and considerate. Being able to marry into the Lin family is our good fortune as sisters!"

Qin Yawen also smiled.

"I just don't know what preferences and taboos our husband has, so I can pay attention."

Li Yingxue chuckled, glanced at the sitting upright Lin Xiu, and said, "Don't enter the room where our husband cultivates casually, and... he is quite fond of dual cultivation!"

Lin Xiu sprayed out a mouthful of tea, feeling that his image had collapsed. He stood up and flicked his sleeve.

"I'll go check if the medicine is burnt!"

That night, he moved into the small room and started making talismans. Subconsciously, he seemed to want to appear less anxious.

Li Yingxue also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although having fun on the bed every day is enjoyable and can enhance their cultivation, occasional rest is also necessary.

Looking at Qin Yawen, who was sleeping beside her, she suddenly had a mischievous idea.

"Sister, since we are going to serve the same husband, there are some things we need to learn."

Qin Yawen blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Learn?"

Then, she saw Li Yingxue take out a book with a pink cover from under the pillow...

"Come, let sister teach you. This is called 'Dragon Fish Pairing'..."

In the middle of the night,

Lin Xiu deeply regretted drinking that bottle of tonic. He couldn't help but think that there was a pair of wives next door who were ready to be picked at any time...

After reciting the "Calm Heart Decision" several times, he still pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard.

With his hands behind his back, he looked at the bright moon in the sky and scolded himself.

"Ah, why am I pretending to be a gentleman when I'm just a lustful wolf!"

Not long after, the door behind him creaked, and Li Yingxue, blushing, walked out when she saw Lin Xiu.

"Xue'er, it's so late, why aren't you with Wen'er?"

Li Yingxue stepped forward and held him, her body burning hot, and she chuckled like a mosquito.

"I wanted to train this little sister, but I didn't expect to not be able to hold on myself..."

Lin Xiu was overjoyed and reached out for her belt!

"The moonlight is shining now, it seems that we haven't been blessed by the heavens yet..."

"I'm so embarrassed, if the neighbors and Wen'er hear this..."

Lin Xiu casually placed a soundproof talisman in the courtyard.

Raising an eyebrow, he smiled and said, "Now no one can hear us..."
