Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

As her figure swayed, Jiang Yuru furrowed her brows slightly. She looked into the distance with a faint frown and let out a soft whimper...

After a long time, she started to sweat lightly and her eyes were filled with watery spring-like clarity.

She should have left with him earlier.

...

After bidding farewell to Ye Dao.

Lu Yu returned to his somewhat dull but physically demanding life.

Every day, he refined spirit beast pills, cultivated, crafted soul tools for spirit beasts, practiced dual cultivation, and practiced dual cultivation on a smaller scale...

Of course, he would also go out occasionally. Apart from Qingyun Shop and Xianyue Shop, Lu Yu often accompanied the shopkeeper to Qidanfang.

During this time, Senior Xu from next door invited him several times to enjoy the moon and drink together...

For Lu Yu, he often felt busy but never dared to slack off.

His own cultivation, control over spirit beast souls, and the straightening of his spiritual roots.

He didn't dare to neglect any of these.

During this time, he also thought about the triggering conditions for becoming a guest alchemist at Tianji Inn several times.

In the end, he still had no results. In terms of the level of refining spirit beast pills, the Hualing Fuyan Pill no longer posed a challenge to him. He even had some confidence in refining more difficult pill formulas.

So he decided to make a great effort and refine the high-level Qi Refining pill formulas, and then observe the reaction of Qingyun Shop.

During this time, he also refined a wood attribute spirit beast pill, known as the Hualing Changchun Pill.

Its effects and efficacy were very different from the Hualing Fuyan Pill, and it was more like an advanced version of the Baosheng Pill.

When taken during the growth stage of a spirit beast, it not only improved the spirit beast's resistance to wood-based techniques, but also slowly increased its size and strength.

It was said that spirit beasts that took it regularly could gradually gather wood spiritual energy in their eyes, cultivating a pair of wooden eyes. Not only could they clearly see the process of their opponents casting spells and gathering spiritual energy during battles, but they could also greatly enhance their ability to find wood attribute spiritual herbs.

As soon as Lu Yu finished refining it, it sold out in Qingyun Shop. Even the shopkeeper instructed him to make more.

Moreover, he kept a bag for himself. Although he still lacked large-sized spirit beasts for cultivation, he had more than enough for cultivating spirit beasts like insects, bees, and birds.

As expected, after a large amount of feeding at no cost, some spirit bees and spirit birds that could search for wood attribute treasures in complex environments appeared.

He gave these spirit beasts to Qin Qingrou, who planned to rent them out with a blood contract. The deposit was one hundred medium-grade spirit stones, and one medium-grade spirit stone per day.

There was a constant stream of people renting these spirit beasts, and there were even many cultivators who wanted to buy them all at once, but they were all rejected.

With such exclusive goods, Lu Yu's wives also saw a significant increase in business and gained quite a bit of fame.

With continuous efforts, more than half a year quickly passed.

With high-level Gathering Spirit Pills, Spirit Spring Body Refinement, and the enhancement of spiritual roots, his cultivation level quickly reached a surprising degree.

He took a big step forward on the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Although the refinement of spirit beast pills was limited by his cultivation level and could not continue to improve, refining different types of spirit beast pills still greatly broadened Lu Yu's horizons.

On this day, Lu Yu's storage ring flashed with white light.

He infiltrated his divine sense and found that the sound transmission jade slip that Yao Senior had given him, which had been silent for a long time, had a message.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I will be hosting a banquet tomorrow at the North City Watchtower to entertain some good friends. There will be many wild and spiritual delicacies. You must come, or I will be unhappy. Hahaha!"

Lu Yu smiled bitterly and quickly replied, "Senior Yao, I dare not refuse your generous invitation. I will definitely attend the banquet on time tomorrow."

"Excellent!"

This Senior Yao was broad-minded and plump, speaking straightforwardly, making it difficult for people to refuse, but also not annoying.

The next day, in order to have more energy when going out, Lu Yu meditated alone in the quiet room all night.

Under the manipulation of his wives and concubines, Lu Yu changed into a brand new silk lining, while the outer robe remained the black background with red clouds, exclusive to the Qingyun Shop.

Previously, Ling'er always felt that the gold thread at the collar was too subtle, so she took the initiative to add a small section below the gold thread, making it more eye-catching.

Although Lu Yu noticed it, he didn't mind this invisible act that showcased his identity.

Ling'er carefully tidied up around Lu Yu for a long time.

Qin Qingrou, also dressed in new clothes, had a nervous expression on her powdered face.

"Husband, I have never met Senior Yao before. I think I won't go to this celebration feast."

"If it seems abrupt, it wouldn't be good."

After careful consideration, Lu Yu finally agreed with Qin Qingrou's opinion.

"Alright, I'll go and try the taste of Wangsha Tower first. If it's good, we can go there ourselves next time."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ling'er and the others all looked at him with joy on their faces.

During the time when they were selling the treasure spirit beasts, they were indeed very busy and in need of some reward from Lu Yu.

Most importantly, the girls had never eaten at a restaurant in Poyun City before.

After thinking for a moment, Qin Qingrou took out a black jade bull ear pendant from her storage ring.

"Husband, why don't you wear this earring?"

Lu Yu immediately laughed, "This is Senior Yao's invitation, there's no need to be so nervous."

"What about the formation?" Qin Qingrou asked, still worried.

"I have it with me. I always carry more than a dozen formation discs in my storage ring."

After a few more instructions, Lu Yu strode out.

First, Lu Yu went to the Qingyun Shop.

Sure enough, several cultivators had already gathered at the door, and they were planning to go together.

When he saw Lu Yu coming, the shopkeeper warmly greeted him.

In their conversation, they also tested whether Lu Yu had any hidden stock of the Foundation Building Pill.

When everyone learned that Lu Yu could refine the Foundation Building Pill, they all showed surprise, and no one dared to treat him as just a Qi Refining cultivator.

On the way to the north of the city, the shopkeeper leaned in and whispered, "Fellow Daoist Lu, this celebration feast hosted by Senior Yao is for his own juniors entering the immortal path."

"It's a Foundation Building celebration feast, so there should be many Qi Refining cultivators that even I don't know."

"At that time, you can sit next to me."

Lu Yu knew that the shopkeeper was taking care of him.

The shopkeeper was afraid that other Qi Refining cultivators who came to the feast would mistreat Lu Yu.

But with the shopkeeper's status and relationship with Senior Yao, he would definitely be seated at the main table.

Lu Yu quickly clasped his hands and said, "Shopkeeper, I am only at the eighth level of Qi Refining. How dare I sit at the same table as a Foundation Building senior?"

"If people see that, they will surely say that I don't know the rules."

The shopkeeper smiled and said frankly, "Don't worry about it, Fellow Daoist Lu."

"The Foundation Building Pill you refined recently has helped me a lot."

"The cultivators who come to my Qingyun Shop are coming in a steady stream, and I have sold a lot of inventory."

"Just do as I say."

Lu Yu quickly shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper, I absolutely dare not lose face at Senior Yao's celebration feast."
