Seeking Immortality In The Cultivation World

Lin Xiu started thinking as soon as he stepped out of the door, planning to find an excuse to run away.

Alternatively, he could hide the two women in the Jiao Pearl and disguise himself as a member of the Lu family to escape.

The former was the simplest, but if that Lu Baitian was too enthusiastic, it wouldn't be good to turn against him.

Disguising himself as a member of the Lu family and blending in seemed simple, but the problem was finding someone who had the qualifications to freely enter and exit the Lu family.

Just as he was contemplating which method to use, Li Yingxue, who had been waiting in the living room downstairs, approached him with a mysterious look on her face.

"My husband, you've worked hard. The fourth sister has a slender waist and plump buttocks, she has the appearance of a noble child. What do you think?"

Lin Xiu was most afraid of this topic, and his face fell.

"Does Xue'er know the saying 'entering the hall and entering the room'?"

Li Yingxue blinked her eyes.

"Could it be that the fourth sister's conduct is not proper, and she cannot enter the Lin family's threshold?"

Lin Xiu slumped onto a chair, looking dejected.

"The door has been entered, the hall has been successfully passed, but this inner room has been challenged nine times, and failed every time!"

Li Yingxue: ?

Although she didn't understand the meaning of his words, it seemed that this night was not as smooth as imagined.

She held Lin Xiu's hand and smiled, "The fourth sister may still be unable to let go. Wasn't it the same with Xue'er back then? Love is something that, after spending a long time together, she will inevitably feel the goodness of her husband. There is still a long way to go!"

That's a good point.

Even an iron pestle can be ground into a needle, let alone "Profound Transcendence". It will be taken sooner or later!

After realizing this, he squeezed his wife's hand.

"We can't stay here for long, otherwise, sooner or later, Lu Baitian will see through our flaws. Let's leave today!"

However, Li Yingxue hesitated for a moment.

"My husband, I want to go and see the Sword Testing Stone before we leave. Can we take a look before we go?"

...

Lu Baitian didn't have time to cultivate at night because he was waiting for Lu Baichen's response.

It wasn't until dawn that the sound transmission symbol finally lit up.

"Seventh brother, something big happened at Qianjue Peak last night. I have already informed the Elder, the matter you entrusted may have to wait. Great Zhou from the west has invaded the border of Great Xia, and Chu Zongzhu has led all the cultivators to rush back for support."

Lu Baitian didn't know what happened at Qianjue Peak, nor did he care. He only cared about the position of the clan leader at the moment.

"Second brother, please help!"

Lu Baichen was currently sitting in the hall of Ping'an Market, which originally belonged to the Qianjue Peak's steward's hall, at the bottom.

Chu Xianxiong came and went in a hurry, leaving only a few disciples to take over two of the four major markets, each with a Gold Core disciple in charge of handling the aftermath.

And this time, the action to suppress Wei Qianqiu could be said to be the biggest loss Vermilion Bird Mountain has suffered in nearly a thousand years. Not only was Chu Xianxiong frustrated, but his disciples were also angry.

At this moment, a Gold Core disciple named Ma Huairen was complaining, wishing to take people to the other two markets and fight a battle to restore the face of the sect.

Lu Baichen looked at Ma Huairen's ferocious appearance and immediately dismissed the idea of provoking him at this time.

However, this matter might involve the struggle for the position of the clan leader, and he and Lu Baitian were half-siblings, so they naturally couldn't just let it go.

So, he shifted his gaze to a disciple in the Purple Cloud Foundation Building.

Before long, the meeting in the steward's hall was over.

He walked a few steps to the side of this disciple and pulled him to a place where no one was around, with a friendly smile.

"Fellow Daoist Yu, I have a favor to ask..."

As he spoke, he handed a storage bag to the other person.

The person quickly glanced at it and immediately smiled, "Fellow Daoist Lu is too polite. Is there something I can help with?"

"Is it true that my Purple Cloud Sect has a direct disciple named Lin Xiu?"

"Lin Xiu? Never heard of him. My Purple Cloud Sect has dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators and hundreds of Gold Core cultivators. Each of them has several direct disciples. How could I remember them all?"

Although he already knew about the strength of the Purple Cloud Sect, Lu Baitian was once again shocked by their power.

In comparison...

In his Lu family, only the patriarch has reached the peak of Gold Core stage, and it is still uncertain whether he can successfully break through to Nascent Soul stage.

The remaining elder is nearing the end of his lifespan and will pass away in a few years.

He felt a sense of desolation in his heart.

He immediately took out a second-grade Law Weapon and handed it over, smiling apologetically, "Please help me, Senior Brother. This person is very important to my Lu family."

But unexpectedly, the person returned the item.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, it's not that I don't want to help. It's not difficult to check for ordinary disciples.

But many direct disciples are not listed in the roster and are kept secret.

For example, the beloved disciple of Elder Zhou. This person infiltrated the Qian Jue Peak for many years and provided countless information to the sect. Unfortunately, he has already passed away. Do you understand?"

Lu Baichen nodded.

This explanation made sense. If he continued to inquire, he would be suspected of prying into the sect's secrets.

"Thank you for your guidance, Fellow Daoist!"

After seeing off the Fellow Daoist, he immediately took out a jade slip.

"Seventh brother, you have always been cautious. But who in our Great Xia Nation would dare to impersonate a Purple Cloud Sect disciple?"

A rhetorical question dispelled Lu Baitian's doubts.

This was also the phrase he kept repeating in his mind.

Yes, who would dare?

This is human nature. When four people agree on something, it is basically considered a fact.

He breathed a sigh of relief and was about to go and meet the "senior brother of the Purple Cloud Sect" to get closer to him when the jade slip lit up again.

"Hmm, the elder is summoning all the island masters for a meeting?"

Thinking of what Lu Baichen had just said, he probably understood that it was related to the withdrawal of the Vermilion Bird Mountain. It would be good to go and listen.

In one of the mansions on Twin Island.

Lu Xun, with black hair and beard, sat in the main seat, his eyes shining like golden lamps.

Nine out of the twelve island masters had already arrived and were seated on both sides.

When Lu Xun saw him enter, he put down a pair of exercise balls-like treasures in his hands and coughed.

"Baichen and Bai Nian have received orders from the sect and will temporarily reside in the Qian Jue Peak. It's probably unlikely that they will return for several decades."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was greatly surprised.

Among the ten island masters, only Lu Baiyuan had guessed what was happening.

Then, Lu Xun recounted all the changes that had occurred in the Qian Jue Peak.

Although everyone listened with confusion, they also knew that the tranquility of the Falling Star Lake for thousands of years was probably gone forever.

Starting today, the natural barrier, Thousand Despair Mountains, on the opposite side of the Falling Star Lake had already become the possession of the Demon Country. The Lu family had inexplicably become a border stronghold between the two countries.

Thinking of the cruelty and brutality of the demon cultivators in the Demon Country, Lu Baitian's back was covered in cold sweat, and he immediately thought of relocating his entire family.

Lu Xun understood everyone's concerns and comforted them, "Don't be anxious, everyone. After all, the Demon Country has made a vow not to engage in warfare for two hundred years. The Lu family still has time to make arrangements."

After speaking, he glanced at everyone, especially at the three disciples of Lu Baitian who were about to break through to the Gold Core stage, and paused for a moment.

"I don't have much time left in my life, and the fate of the family will depend on you, the future of the Lu family. I hope you will diligently cultivate and..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a beam of light suddenly shot up from far outside the door.
