Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

The world of cultivators values strength above all else.

After enduring so many hardships outside the Holy Spirit Mountain, Lu Yu deeply understands this principle.

That's why he is always cautious when going out, and he always intentionally or unintentionally seeks the protection of Qin Qingrou.

He thought he would be able to bid farewell to the days of struggling to make a living today.

Who would have expected this!

The woman in front of him has a cold expression, and the spiritual pressure emanating from her body is a hundred times stronger than Qin Qingrou's.

He raises his hand in a salute.

Lu Yu humbly says, "Senior Liang, you have misunderstood. Qin and I have no intention of living together."

After saying that, he bows and takes a few steps back before turning around and leaving.

Regardless of the benefits Qin and this Senior Liang may have, in this situation, he cannot let Qin offend a cultivator who may be at the Foundation Building stage.

If the other party is willing to invite him to live together, it is helping him.

"He knows what's good for him." The male cultivator glances at Lu Yu's departing figure and mutters in annoyance.

He has been waiting outside the General Affairs Office for more than half a month, just to intercept Qin Qingrou.

He originally thought that Qin Qingrou would give up renting Tenglong Residence, but he didn't expect to still catch her.

He didn't expect that Qin Qingrou, who usually doesn't give male cultivators any face, would find a male cultivator to share the rent, and his strength is so weak.

It was a waste for him to invite his master to help.

...

Lu Yu turns and leaves the General Affairs Office, walking with a somewhat desolate expression in the market.

He heads towards Wanling Tower and asks Liu the shopkeeper for a cup of Ling Tea.

The inferior bitterness blooms on his tongue, and he can't help but smile bitterly.

He can't help but feel a little lost when he thinks of the joy in the eyes of his wives and concubines when he came.

It's all his own fault for being weak, and he can only rely on some clever tricks and opportunism.

Now that the opportunity has been taken away, he has no way to deal with it.

If he acts recklessly, he may become a dead body in the future.

"Compared to myself, Qin Qingrou's cultivation level is much higher, but in the market, she is just average. According to reason, she shouldn't qualify to rent a fairy residence."

"I didn't consider everything thoroughly. I didn't expect that Qin Qingrou would also be constrained by others, which led to her dilemma."

He finishes the bitter Ling Tea in one gulp and takes a deep breath.

Even though he has missed many opportunities, he still can't let go immediately.

After sitting in Wanling Tower for a long time and seeing that it's still early, Lu Yu bids farewell to Liu the shopkeeper and thinks about wandering around.

After all, if Qin Qingrou moves to a nearby market to rent, it won't be easy for him to come here again.

When he reaches Qingyun Pill Shop, Lu Yu hesitates for a moment before entering.

He takes out the sealed Beast Spirit Pill and hands it to the pill attendant in the shop.

After the pill attendant takes it and enters the back of the shop, Jiang Yuru comes out with a lifted curtain and smiles, "Fellow Daoist, is this the Beast Spirit Pill you refined yourself?"

Lu Yu nods with a desolate expression on his face, not saying a word, just waiting for Jiang Yuru to settle the payment.

But instead of giving him spirit stones, Jiang Yuru says, "Fellow Daoist, I didn't have a chance to say this last time."

"The Beast Spirit Pills you refined are full and rich in spiritual energy, they are all top-notch."

"And, you also wanted to buy the pill formula, but you were short on spirit stones at the time. I wonder if you would be willing to cooperate with our shop for a while?"

Recently, the business of Beast Spirit Pills in Qingyun Pill Shop has been taken away by Wanling Tower, and they have been unsold for a long time.

After inquiring from various sources, she learned that the Beast Spirit Pills from Wanling Tower have excellent quality, so she wanted to find an outstanding pill refiner to customize Beast Spirit Pills.

When I last purchased the Beast Spirit Pill from Lu Yu, I had the idea of asking Lu Yu to order more. But unfortunately, I couldn't find Lu Yu anymore.

So I instructed the Dan Boy to pay attention. Otherwise, if cultivators sell the Beast Spirit Pill, the Dan Boy would directly settle the spirit stones and wouldn't find Jiang Yuru behind the scenes.

Lu Yu hesitated for a moment and asked, "What kind of cooperation?"

"We are looking for highly skilled alchemists to cooperate with. If you can provide us with an adequate supply of Beast Spirit Pills, we can offer discounted cultivation pills, pill formulas, Dao companions, and the qualification to rent caves in return."

"If you have any requirements, feel free to mention them," Jiang Yuru smiled.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's eyes lit up. "Are you referring to the caves in Tenglong and Wufeng Immortal Residences?"

Jiang Yuru nodded. She naturally knew that these two residences near the market were in high demand.

Seeing this, Lu Yu was almost ready to agree, but he suppressed his excitement and asked, "With such an attractive offer, I assume the requirements are quite demanding?"

Jiang Yuru shook her head. "The requirements can vary depending on the individual. Let me explain for your reference."

"First, you need to refine one hundred bags of Beast Spirit Pills every year for our store to sell. As for the materials, the store will provide three times the amount."

"Second, the store will provide specific pill formulas and materials. You need to use the pill formulas to refine one hundred bags of Beast Spirit Pills for our store to sell, and the materials will also be provided in full by the store."

"As for the difficulty of refining, it is similar to that of the Beast Spirit Pills, and if there are any differences, they won't be significant."

"Third, more than half of the Beast Spirit Pills you refine should be sold to our store."

"What do you think?"

Lu Yu suddenly understood that the other party was interested in his identity as an alchemist.

However, the requirement to refine two hundred bags of Beast Spirit Pills per year made him somewhat hesitant.

"For items like caves and high-grade pills, you can also act as a purchasing agent for friends, but there will be limitations on the quantity..."

Seeing Lu Yu hesitate, Jiang Yuru continued to talk with a smile.

After listening for a while, Lu Yu gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Alright, I will cooperate with you. Can you provide me with the qualification to rent a cave first?"

Jiang Yuru's face immediately showed a hint of joy. "Of course."

She took out a pre-prepared contract from her storage ring, pressed a drop of blood onto it, and handed it to Lu Yu.

Lu Yu took it and carefully examined it before signing it with his own blood.

The cooperation was established.

Jiang Yuru then took out a jade slip from her storage ring.

"With this referral jade slip, you can obtain the qualification to rent caves in both Tenglong and Wufeng Immortal Residences."

Lu Yu put the referral jade slip into his storage ring and bowed.

"Thank you, thank you."

After a while, Lu Yu walked out of the Qingyun Pill Shop with a light-hearted feeling. He had a happy expression on his face and almost wanted to sing out loud.

But the cultivators passing by on the street immediately lowered their heads and concealed their joy, walking quickly towards their homes.

The days of living on the edge were finally going to be far behind him!

He was filled with excitement.

But was the Qingyun Pill Shop not afraid that he would lie?

Apparently, he was overthinking. Cultivators generally needed to purchase pills to assist in their cultivation when they wanted to advance their cultivation level. If they dared to deceive the Qingyun Pill Shop, it would be like digging their own graves.

Moreover, the qualification to rent the immortal residences could also be recovered. If he paid the rent for a year but lost the qualification to rent, he would probably lose thirty high-grade spirit stones.

Lu Yu recalled the contract in his mind, carefully examined and pondered it, and confirmed that there were no traps. Only then did he feel at ease.

The contract signed with blood was not very strict. When Lu Yu signed it, he had already thought that if he discovered any deception, he could immediately flee with his wives and concubines to the Shengling Mountain.

In this vast world, he could go wherever he wanted.

On his way back, Lu Yu passed by the general affairs office of the Shengling Mountain outside the Holy Spirit Mountain.

Looking at the bustling cultivators, he couldn't help but glance around, not knowing if Qin Jiejie had returned.

If he also chose Tenglong Immortal Residence, would they have the chance to meet in the future?
