"In that case, I would like to congratulate the senior in advance for reaching a higher level in their guest status."

Ye Daotong looked at Lu Yu with a hint of resentment, then smiled and said, "The news of Fellow Daoist Lu now residing in Lan Ya Shufu has spread within the Qingyun Shop. I wonder how many people envy you."

"I suppose you wouldn't easily leave after spending a fortune on renting."

"However, the peripheral branch of the Shengling Mountain market has reopened, and many cultivators engaged in business services in the periphery will have to reconsider."

"As a guest cultivator willing to explore, I can still gain some face in appointing and dismissing service cultivators in the periphery."

"If you need it, I can reserve some spots for you. Would you like me to take care of that Fellow Daoist Jiang?"

...

After leaving the Qingyun Shop, Lu Yu's mind was filled with various thoughts.

He didn't expect the situation at Shengling Mountain to change so quickly.

Shengling Mountain's old ancestor used the prohibition formations around the surrounding villages as a battle formation, and after many years of hard work, he finally set up the Thundering Nine Heavens Soul-Stealing Formation. Unexpectedly, not only did it not achieve complete success, but he ended up fleeing and escaping.

It can only be said that the world is full of changes, and the future is unpredictable.

At this moment, he suddenly arrived at a shop.

He looked at the plaque at the entrance of the shop, which read "Broken Cloud Star."

He suddenly remembered that the shopkeeper had mentioned this shop to him before.

With a thought in his mind and a slight movement of his feet, he entered the Broken Cloud Star.

After spending a considerable amount of spirit stones, he was led by a shop assistant to a quiet room on the second floor.

This quiet room had a special isolation formation, which not only blocked sound, breath, and even spiritual power, but also left no trace.

Even if someone inside caused a commotion, no one outside would notice.

...

In front of the Xianyue Shop.

Jiang Yuru wore a slightly white dress, with a touch of makeup on her face, revealing a charming smile that could captivate hearts.

After receiving a cultivator, she had just turned around to go back into the shop when she heard the impatient voice of the shopkeeper next to her.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, didn't you say you made an appointment with a very capable pill refiner who was going to come and sell spirit beast pills?"

"Why haven't we seen any sign of them after these few days?"

"Our shop may be small, but it has great future prospects. If that pill refiner is really as you said, a guest pill refiner of the Qingyun Shop, cooperating with our shop would not be a waste."

"Moreover, our purchasing price is already slightly higher than that of the Qingyun Shop. If you don't go and negotiate again..."

"If we miss this opportunity, our shop will be gone. Whether the female attendants in the shop can continue to work will be another matter."

Jiang Yuru frowned slightly, but still lowered her head respectfully and said, "Shopkeeper, I have already discussed it with that pill refiner."

"It's just that they have been delayed by some important matters recently, but they will definitely..."

"How many more days? How many days have passed already?"

The shopkeeper's face darkened, and his tone became unpleasant as he interrupted, "Are you planning to wait until the end of the month to get your monthly salary and then leave?"

"Playing tricks with me, your cultivation level is still too low."

"Don't blame me for being ruthless. It's just that this small business can't afford any delays."

"According to reason, with your appearance, there should be no shortage of cultivators willing to cooperate with you."

"But with your attitude, I can't maintain the relationships I introduced you to. How can I continue to use you?"

"Considering that we've known each other for a while, I can give you a few more days, do you understand?"

Jiang Yuru's eyes slightly reddened, and she quickly bowed and said, "I understand, thank you for your generosity, shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper nodded slightly at her words, but seemed somewhat unwilling. He continued to nag, "You should know that I have been scolded by many customers because of you."

"If you continue to be so ungrateful and stubborn, even if a deity comes, I won't be able to save you."

He looked at Jiang Yuru with some frustration. Seeing that she just lowered her head without responding, he felt bored and stopped scolding.

There were numerous shops in Poyun City, and although Xianyue Shop had a good name, it was a latecomer.

But since it had opened, it would certainly not easily go down the path of loss.

Jiang Yuru lowered her head into her daoist robe, her chin resting on the edge, constantly recalling the scolding from the shopkeeper.

Suddenly, her lips curled up, and she couldn't help but think of the fierce battle she had with Lu Yu a few days ago in her residence.

Her face turned red as she thought about it, and she felt a sense of impact on her back.

Even her face seemed to be tingling...

However, this despicable person came in through the back door and wandered around but never came.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed between her fingers.

She took a deep breath and infiltrated her consciousness.

"Do you have time? Come quickly to the Star of Breaking Clouds."

It was that despicable person.

When Jiang Yuru heard the news, her just recovered eyes reddened again, feeling so wronged that she almost wanted to cry.

After a moment, a faint smile appeared on her face.

After asking the shopkeeper to take care of things, she quickly rushed to the Star of Breaking Clouds.

Not long after, when she saw the signboard of the Star of Breaking Clouds from a distance, she frowned.

During the days when Lu Yu didn't contact her, as the deadline for renting at Wangyun Residence approached, she even paid a lot of spirit stones.

The money, which was not much to begin with, was all spent on rent.

Although her cultivation progress was not slow here, she still needed time.

She had been confined to the Xianyue Shop because her performance did not meet the standards.

The shopkeeper's sarcastic remarks were almost never-ending.

The path to immortality was difficult, and Jiang Yuru's path was even more difficult.

She even thought about leaving Poyun City and finding a remote market, but experiencing the taste of spiritual power infusion made her unwilling to go back to the countryside to develop.

She was not willing.

She stepped into the Star of Breaking Clouds.

She was led by a shop assistant to the quiet room where Lu Yu was.

A fragrant spiritual tea scent wafted into her nose.

When Lu Yu heard the sound of the door opening, he looked over and smiled slightly.

He was not in a hurry at all about Jiang Yuru's arrival.

"You're here?"

A fragrant breeze drifted in, and Jiang Yuru, dressed in a white dress, walked in.

The entire quiet room seemed to become more beautiful.

"Jiang Fellow Daoist, the peripheral market of the Holy Spirit Mountain is planning to reopen, and I have a quota for a female cultivator to manage the service."

"I don't know if you're interested?"

Just as Lu Yu spoke, Jiang Yuru's expression froze.

She frowned and looked at Lu Yu, carefully examining him.

Lu Yu smiled and said, "This matter was informed by Senior Ye, and I also confirmed it with the shopkeeper."

Various difficult situations seemed to reappear before Jiang Yuru's eyes for a moment.

Her eyes reddened, and as her beautiful eyes flickered, a hint of spring emerged.

Finally, her thin upper lip trembled, and she lightly bit her plump lower lip, using one hand to form a spiritual seal.

Her white dress fell to the ground in an instant.

Leaving only a plain white robe.

Even when surrounded by the fragrance, Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh, indeed generous, indeed wealthy.

Jiang Yuru's delicate body trembled, and tears slid down her cheeks. "You promised me that you would go to Xianyue Shop..."

Lu Yu turned his palm and took out several bags of spirit beast pills from his storage ring.

He smiled bitterly, "I had reserved some spirit beast pills to sell at Xianyue Shop."

"I don't care, you almost made me lose my job, and I have no income anymore."

"Wu, you're a bad person, you lied to me..."

Jiang Yuru choked, "Do you know how I've been living these past few months?"

After speaking, she tightened her grip on Lu Yu's slender arm, afraid that he would run away again.

Then, her head was gently pressed down by a palm.

Her lips were sealed, and she couldn't say a word anymore.

For a long time, her head only made one movement, tilting forward and backward.

Or turning around, being tilted forward and backward.
