Longevity starts with dual cultivation

Chapter 51 Coveting
In the next bedroom.

Ling Changqing had already fallen into a deep sleep on the spacious and comfortable large bed with brocade curtains and carvings. Speaking of which, he was busy with cultivation in the past and had not had many opportunities to sleep peacefully like this.

There was almost nothing for Ling Changqing to worry about during this trip to Hanyuezhou Market. He just had to focus on being Ling Qiyue's follower.

As for other things, there would naturally be two senior sisters to deal with them. Even if any conflict broke out, it would not be the turn of a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training to take action.

In the bedroom over here.

"... Senior Sister, are you really not going to reconsider this? With Junior Brother's extraordinary luck and fortune, if you form a lifelong Taoist relationship with him, you will definitely benefit a lot!"

"Perhaps it won't be long before you can directly step into the Golden Core Realm? Who will the Ling Family need to care about at that time?"

Tang Qiuyao was still persuading tirelessly.

"Maybe? But I think you should try it with him. Maybe you can successfully build your foundation?"

Ling Qiyue glanced at the stunningly beautiful woman.

You want to trick me into jumping into a trap? You should jump in first!

The two girls laughed and joked for a while before continuing to discuss business.

Early the next morning.

Ling Changqing woke up as expected, tidied up simply, and came to talk to the two women.

"Let's go, let's have breakfast first, and then go out to do some work."

Tang Qiuyao said as she held his arm.

Ling Changqing naturally had no objection, and he and the two women came to the VIP room on the third floor of the inn. The maid in colorful clothes with bright eyes and white teeth immediately presented the jade slip menu.

Spiritual rice porridge, buns stuffed with second-level monster meat, steamed buns made from spiritual wheat rice flour, various spiritual medicine meals and tonic soup stock are all delicacies that ordinary cultivators can hardly dream of.

Ling Qiyue had no shortage of spirit stones now, so after asking Ling Changqing for his opinion, she ordered a full table, and the three of them began to feast.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill and paid the bill before leaving, Tang Qiuyao suggested purchasing all the resources first, so the three of them walked into another spiritual medicine store.

In Hanyuezhou Market, more than half of the industries belong to Hanyue Sect, and most of them occupy the best locations.

The remaining shops and businesses are from outside, some of which are run by affiliated families of Hanyue Sect, or other large forces of comparable size to Hanyue Sect.

For example, the "Huazhenfang" medicine store that Ling Qiyue visited yesterday is an asset set up by another Jindan sect, the "Yuanhua Sect", here.

"...When there are more foundation-building cultivators in the family in the future, shall we set up a permanent base here?"

Tang Qiuyao suggested: "Arrange a foundation-building cultivator to stay behind to guard the place. It will be much easier to purchase resources and collect intelligence in the future."

The Wu family is stronger, so they have always had a permanent base in the Hanyuezhou market, and have also owned several shops and businesses, earning a lot of spirit stone resources every year.

"Well, that's a good idea. Keep it in mind and put it into action when conditions permit."

Ling Qiyue said that in fact, many foundation-building families did this. The Ling family’s power was limited in the past, and it was too far away from Hanyue Continent, so they did not consider it.

As I kept shopping, the day passed quietly.

Most of the resources Ling Qiyue needed were already available, except for a few items that were either out of stock or of substandard quality.

"...This is the last large business in the market. Let's go and take a look. I hope we won't return empty-handed this time."

Tang Qiuyao frowned as she spoke, unable to conceal the worry in her heart.

A few dozen steps away was a magnificent building that looked like a palace, with white jade steps, elegant monks on duty, and groups of maids in brocade clothes standing in line with friendly and peaceful smiles on their faces.

This is the industry opened by the Yuanying Sect's Ji Le Tiannu Palace. The variety of resources inside is so rich that even the Hanyue Sect cannot match it. I think there should be some gains.

The Palace of the Heavenly Maiden of Bliss is a sect located in the Yuanqing Continent, which is much farther away from here than the cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Stage could imagine. Therefore, it has a good relationship with the Hanyue Sect because there is no fundamental conflict of interest.

Ling Qiyue nodded and led the two of them up the white jade steps. Immediately, a maid in brocade clothes came over to greet them. A moment later, the three of them were already sitting in the quiet room on the second floor.

The person in charge of the reception was a beautiful girl with a hot and gorgeous face, a seductive look and a charming demeanor. She was in the initial stage of foundation building. Her skirt was thin and transparent, revealing a large area of ​​snow-white skin.

She didn't have any special reaction to Ling Qiyue and Tang Qiuyao, but when she saw Ling Changqing, the shock in her eyes disappeared instantly.

"...Fellow Daoist Ling wants the Soul-Guiding Spiritual Grass? The Phantom Star and Moon Sand?"

After sitting down, the female deacon named Luo Ji smiled brightly, staring at Ling Changqing from head to toe with her beautiful eyes, and said with a slight smile:
"Although these two things are not very precious, their cultivation and collection are rather complicated, and our supply is very tight!"

"Of course, this is the first time that Fellow Daoist Ling has visited our store. Considering the long-term cooperation, I have to find a way to solve it for you..."

She talked a lot of ramblings, her eyes never leaving Ling Changqing.

Ling Qiyue coughed lightly and said patiently:
"In that case, please bring the things here, Brother Luo. Even if the price is a little higher, we have no objection."

These are the last two materials that go with the Soul-Devouring Blood Soul Fruit. As long as you buy them all, you can start refining new Foundation-Building Pills when you return.

"Well, that's no problem, but..."

Luo Ji stared at Ling Changqing again and again, covering her mouth and laughing softly:

"I wonder what's the name of this handsome young man? I like you, haha..."

Ling Qiyue's face suddenly darkened. If she had known that this woman had ill intentions towards her junior brother, she would not have come to this business.

Tang Qiuyao said calmly, "This junior fellow apprentice is Ling Changqing, my dual cultivation partner. Fellow Daoist Luo, please don't have any other thoughts."

“…Really? That’s such a pity!”

Luo Ji glanced at her. "Dual cultivation couple?" You two are both virgins. Do you think I'm blind?
However, she did not point it out. She turned around and told the maid to bring ten portions of the Soul-Guiding Tea Spirit Grass and the Fantasy Star Moon Sand.

"These two resources require a total of 9,400 low-grade spirit stones. I will not bargain!"

Luo Ji said calmly: "Of course, if Fellow Daoist Ling is willing, we can discuss it..."

"Very good, at this price, we accept it!"

Ling Qiyue interrupted and took out ninety-four medium-grade spirit stones from the storage bag, handed them to the maid, and then took away the resources.

"Then...will you still need this thing in the future?"

Luo Ji said calmly: "The success rate of refining this kind of life-extending elixir is not high, and the main material is in short supply even here..."

Obviously, as an inner disciple who came out from a large sect to gain experience, his vision and knowledge naturally far exceed those of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator.

The Soul-Guiding Tea Spirit Grass and the Fantasy Star Moon Sand are also important materials for refining some kind of second-tier life-extending elixir, and their value is even higher than that of the Foundation-Building Pill.

Luo Ji felt that she had guessed what Ling Qiyue was going to do with these resources, and she didn't think it would be so easy for them to succeed.

By then, won’t they have to come back to me for help?

"This... let's talk about it later!"

Ling Qiyue didn't want to stay any longer, so she stood up and said goodbye.

Luo Ji hesitated for a moment, but still did not say anything to stop him. She just said:

"Next time if you need resources, just come to me. How about leaving your contact information?"

"Haha, thank you very much!"

Tang Qiuyao said this, took out the communication jade talisman and exchanged contact information with her.

But I made up my mind to block her when I got back.
