This is what an immortal should be like

Chapter 106: Unable to protect yourself?

At this moment, Liu Hongyu felt that this painting had a special representative meaning, and the person in the painting must be of great importance.

Liu Hongyu probably also understood that the fact that the Qi family came to see him with this painting meant that they had already reached an internal conclusion in the past six months, or at least an inference.

Just by looking at this painting, Liu Hongyu knew that the Qi family's ancestors were also wealthy.

"Is this an ancestor of your Qi family?"

Liu Hongyu looked at the three members of the Qi family who were in shock. Only then did they feel as if they had just woken up from a dream.

Qi Yucheng's lips trembled slightly, and his words trembled with excitement.

"Boss Liu, although I had some expectations before I came here, I didn't expect you to be even more amazing than I thought. You should... You should... Heh, heh, heh."

The old man was speechless. Qi Guoliang beside him quickly took out a bottle from his pocket, poured out a few small pills and asked the old man to take them. Only then did the old man's condition stabilize a little.

Liu Hongyu watched from the side with a frown, and even though the other party's answer was irrelevant to the question, he did not interrupt.

The old man took a deep breath before continuing.

"Boss Liu, you should have already embarked on the path to immortality?"

It was still a little surprising that such a question could be asked. Many thoughts flashed through Liu Hongyu's mind, and he even recalled all the information about the Qi family. Then he smiled and shook his head slightly.

"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? What advice does Mr. Qi have?"

Qi Chenfeng felt that the cracks in his worldview had widened to the point of breaking. What was Second Grandpa talking about? And neither of them dared to say it and neither of them directly denied it?
Old Master Qi looked at the scroll in his hand and felt a little dazed, so much so that he could hardly stand. Qi Guoliang beside him quickly supported him, while he still held the scroll firmly in his hand.

"As expected, as expected, your father hid it very well."

In fact, there were signs of everything early on. The news of Liu Hongyu's mental illness attack was even published in magazines over the years. How many senior executives of the Liu Group didn't know about it?

Liu Hongyu smiled. This was indeed related to his father, but it was not what they thought. However, there was nothing to explain, so let them think whatever they wanted.

As he spoke, Liu Hongyu took another look at the scroll, but did not say anything. He deliberately walked back to the long table and continued to look at the design draft.

"Mr. Qi, please sit down wherever you want. If you just came to show me the scroll, then I've seen it and said something. There's nothing else to say. You can treat me as Aunt Lu visiting. Prepare some tea and snacks!"

"Yes!"

The nanny responded and left. Liu Hongyu just sat there looking at the draft and ignored the three people from the Qi family.

Liu Lei on the side laughed in his heart, looking at the three people who were in astonishment next to him, as if the emotions that were brewing in his heart were suddenly interrupted when he wanted to vent them.

"Brother Lei, it's just right that you're here. Give me some advice."

"it is good!"

Liu Lei responded and walked over to the long table to study the draft together.

The three members of the Qi family were somewhat at a loss, including Qi Chenfeng, whose worldview had just been shattered. He also felt that this was not the way things should develop.

After a long time, Mr. Qi looked at the scroll, then carefully carried the scroll and walked to the long table step by step. He also looked at the fax on it, but his mind was not there so he did not pay attention.

Qi Guoliang and Qi Chenfeng, who had come back to their senses, also walked over subconsciously.

"Mr. Liu, this is about our ancestors' teachings. Could you please take another look at this painting?"

"No need, I've already seen it. This painting is indeed a treasure, but I don't think you will transfer it to me, right?"

Liu Hongyu said this, but his eyes did not move away from the patterns on the table. However, in fact, he was constantly thinking about this painting and his master's reaction after he knew about it.

Qi Yucheng was like a nervous child, leaning on his crutches and wanting to get close to Liu Hongyu, but he was also full of fear, so he could only walk by the table and speak carefully.

"But Mr. Liu, you must know a lot of things. Can you tell me, tell me?"

Liu Hongyu finally raised his head and looked at the old man at the table. After all, he was the one who had struggled with his father in the past, and he was so old, so he decided to get straight to the point.

"It's not that I can't tell you, and no matter what your Qi family's ancestral teachings are, I should be able to help most of the time."

As he spoke, Liu Hongyu glanced at the scroll before continuing.

"But why should I help you?"

Although he was excited, Qi Yucheng finally reacted. However, people like them can only feel at ease if they have the conditions.

On this day, the Qi family stayed until almost noon before leaving. In exchange for almost complete support within the group for Liu Hongyu, or rather, for support for Liu Lei who represented Liu Hongyu, they got a small promise.

Unlike when they came, Liu Hongyu personally sent the three of them to the door when they left, watched them get into the car, and then watched the car drive away.

Liu Lei did not leave with him, but stood beside Liu Hongyu.

"Boss, the Qi family is fine, but for others, you'd better not directly acknowledge their status as immortal cultivators!"

"Well, I know my limits! I can still meet the next person this afternoon. I'll try to resolve your worries in the next two days!"

"Good boss!"

Liu Lei smiled brightly.
-
On the way back to the hotel, in the business car carrying the three members of the Qi family, Qi Chenfeng was already so excited that he could hardly control himself, and it was not easy for him to hold back until now.

"Second Grandpa, Uncle, I'm not dreaming, am I? Everything that just happened was real? It really exists in this world." Qi Guoliang raised his hand to signal his nephew not to continue, and glanced at the driver's seat by the way.

Qi Yucheng held the scroll in his hands and patted the hands of the uncle and nephew.

"Go back, you'll find out when you get back to the hotel!"

The car left after dropping off the three people. The Qi family returned to the hotel suite, and Qi Yucheng hurried back to his room and quickly lay down on the bed. The nurse helped him pull all the blackout curtains and then left the room.

However, although Qi Yucheng wanted to sleep very much, he couldn't fall asleep at this moment. He could only lie on the bed and calm his mind.

In the living room outside, Qi Guoliang sat there, looking at his watch from time to time, while Qi Chenfeng was a little confused.

"Hey, uncle, what's going on? It's okay if Second Grandpa is tired, but what are you waiting for?"

"What are you waiting for? Wait until your second grandfather falls asleep, and then wait for him to wake up!"

"what?"

Qi Chenfeng was completely confused.

"No, could you please explain yourself more clearly?"

"Oh you don't understand!"

"Nonsense, why would I ask if I want to understand?"

Qi Chenfeng couldn't help but raise his voice a little, but then he immediately lowered it subconsciously. He also realized that he couldn't disturb the old man at this time.

"I mean, look at me, I'm an adult now. Can you please stop playing tricks on me?"

"Look at you, you still need to be punished!"

Qi Guoliang said this and ignored his nephew. The latter wanted to say a few more words, but seeing this situation, he finally gave up and chose to wait quietly together.

In the room, although Mr. Qi couldn't sleep, he finally calmed down and thought about the past, what happened just now, and what would happen in the future.
With his thoughts in such a mess, the old man seemed to vaguely see an umbrella in his consciousness.

After the attention was attracted by the umbrella, the umbrella seemed to start rotating continuously.

Soon, the old man fell into a sleep with even breathing.

It was as if you were watching the umbrella spinning one moment, and the next moment you appeared on a street as if it were a matter of course.

“Crash, la, la, la”

It was raining heavily, and the streets looked dark and shabby, with few people around. Qi Yucheng felt lonely and helpless, just like when he was a child.
At this time, the sound of rain seemed to be blocked by something, and there was even a faint sound above my head.

Qi Yucheng subconsciously looked up and saw someone holding an umbrella to block the rain for him.

The man was very tall and wore a light blue ancient costume. He did not lower his head. Qi Yucheng tried his best to see his face but could not see it clearly. He could only see his chin and a few strands of long hair.

Or maybe it wasn't that this person was too tall, but that Qi Yucheng seemed to have returned to his childhood self, but he didn't realize it at the moment, and subconsciously moved closer to this person in ancient costume, as if he felt extremely safe around him.

The man held an umbrella and looked at the rain in front of him. He did not lower his head, but he could catch a glimpse of the child beside him out of the corner of his eye.

Many years have passed and my consciousness is almost blurred by sleep, but I feel much more relaxed today.

"He gave me a very pure spiritual energy, the most considerable amount I have absorbed in all these years. It also exudes wisps of immortal spirit energy, very pure. However, in my memory, the only person who can possess such pure immortal spirit energy is not only the best immortal cultivator, but also the most regrettable cultivator. Sometimes he can be a bit crazy. Be careful when interacting with him and don't anger him!"

The uneasy little boy seemed to finally remember something and why he was here, so he couldn't help asking.

"Can he help you?"

The man seemed to smile.

"In today's world, he can barely protect himself. To be able to share a considerable amount of spiritual energy with me must be a rare magnanimity passed down by the orthodox immortal way. Don't ask for anything more."

After a brief silence, the man added.

"I was very surprised that you met him this time. It also gave me a rare moment of clarity. However, after the demise of such a cultivator, I'm sure there will never be another one. Well, you promised me, and you have already done enough for so many generations. You don't need to worry about it anymore!"

After saying this, the man patted the child's head twice.

The next moment, the little boy felt dizzy, and the man in ancient costume in his sight became more and more blurred.

"Wait, wait—"

The little boy seemed to know he was about to wake up and started shouting.

"ho"

Old man Qi Yucheng suddenly woke up from his dream. He was still a little dazed and looked around in confusion. When he saw the furnishings in the hotel room, he gradually reacted.

The dream is over.
The other party didn't seem to say anything, but it seemed as if he had said everything, as if he was making arrangements for his funeral!
The last sentence should have freed the old man from his shackles, but he felt a strong sense of loss.
After a long time, the old man suddenly had an idea.

Is Mr. Liu really in trouble? Liu Shihao had already discovered this, so why didn't he take any action all these years?
The old man recalled Liu Hongyu's calm expression today, the way he took everything so lightly, and the action of stretching out his hand and pointing out the ball of green light without him even mentioning it. Did it really seem like it was difficult?

No, no! Maybe it's not like that!
