Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

When the disciples of the Greedy Wolf Hall were preparing to return under the leadership of the Elder, Lu Yu and the others had already quickly left Chen Yue City and returned to the Dragon Tooth Stronghold.

Finally back on their own territory, Lu Yu's mood improved quite a bit.

"Phew, it feels more comfortable on our own territory. In Chen Yue City, I always felt like there were dangers lurking."

As Lu Yu spoke, he helped Bai Ling'er to her residence.

Although he knew how to treat Bai Ling'er's injuries quickly, there were no conditions to cultivate with her every night in the trial space.

So her injuries only recovered enough for her to move reluctantly.

As for complete recovery? It would probably take several years.

At least there was still some hope.

Bai Pangzi felt very distressed when he saw his sister seriously injured in the Dragon Tooth Stronghold.

But after hearing the details, he understood that she was injured to protect everyone, not abandoned or deceived.

So he could only sigh helplessly.

"Don't worry, I have a way to treat Ling'er's injuries. Even her lifebound treasure should be able to recover to normal. So don't put on that big brother-in-law expression..."

"What? Did you do something to my sister?"

Lu Yu thought he was being subtle enough. He didn't expect Bai Pangzi to understand it immediately.

Indeed, one couldn't deal with smart people. He just casually said something and his secret was exposed.

"Cough cough, it's not what you think, like taking advantage of the situation or something..."

"It's already a done deal, right? Forget it, anyway, my sister's family can't control her, so just let her stay with you and take care of her. Besides, there's an even more talented genius in the family now, my sister... has been abandoned."

"What? She's abandoned just like that? She's at least a talented genius, right?"

Lu Yu was shocked.

Was the Bai family really so overbearing now? A Gold Core stage expert actually said they would abandon her just like that? It was truly mind-boggling. If someone as powerful as Bai Ling'er couldn't establish herself in the Bai family, how powerful was the current genius in the Bai family?

Lu Yu really couldn't imagine.

"Let's not talk about family matters, it's distressing. Lu Yu, do you have any plans now?"

Bai Pangzi waved his hand at him.

He couldn't even handle family matters, let alone Lu Yu, an outsider.

"Plans? First, I'll heal Ling'er's injuries, then cultivate. What else can I do?"

Lu Yu shrugged.

There were many benefits to cultivating with Bai Ling'er. Not only could he help her heal her injuries and restore her lifebound treasure, but he could also cultivate his spiritual body at the same time.

Once the spiritual body was cultivated, it would be equivalent to obtaining immortality.

Wasn't his initial goal of cultivation to obtain a long life? Now that the opportunity was within reach, he naturally had to work hard for it.

"Since you have plans, that's good. By the way, there seems to be a problem with the situation at the Wolf Tooth Stronghold. It would be best if you could pay attention to it when you have time."

"What problem could there be at the Wolf Tooth Stronghold?"

Lu Yu frowned when he heard this.

The Wolf Tooth Stronghold was his temporary residence now, after all, he still held the position of the stronghold's lord.

"Some people from the Wolf Tooth Stronghold are secretly trading with the disciples of the Greedy Wolf Hall. As for what they're trading, I'm afraid Lord Lu might not be pleased..."

"What are they trading?"

Lu Yu furrowed his brows and asked unhappily.

"Red Pills, and a large quantity of them."

"This..."

Now Lu Yu was stunned.

Because the Red Pills in his hands had always been supplied directly to Li Qingqing's side, except for a small portion that he kept for emergencies.

Now Bai Pangzi was saying that a large quantity of Red Pills was flowing out from the Dragon Tooth Stronghold, which was a bit hard to understand.

After all, the quantity of Hong Dan is limited. Where did so many Hong Dan come from?

"Liu Zhaizhu, I suggest you go and ask your wives. Maybe they know something."

"Okay."

Lu Yu nodded.

It is not impossible to trade with the Greedy Wolf Hall, but it depends on the situation and timing.

It would be excessive to trade with the Greedy Wolf Hall in his absence, especially in large quantities of Hong Dan.

Currently, Hong Dan is the main product of Li Qingqing's Treasure Pavilion. If the Greedy Wolf Hall obtains a large quantity, it will definitely affect the business of the Treasure Pavilion.

"I will go and investigate."

After bidding farewell to Bai Pangzi, Lu Yu returned to his residence and went straight to the quiet room.

Mingxin was currently refining pills in the quiet room. When she saw him enter, she sweetly greeted him.

"Welcome back. Have you finished dealing with the matters in the village?"

"Well... Mingxin, I have something to ask you."

Lu Yu lightly hummed, then sat down beside her.

"What's the matter? Why do you look so serious? Could it be that there's a problem with the Hong Dan I sold?"

"Well... there is indeed a problem."

Lu Yu didn't expect her to directly bring up the issue of Hong Dan. For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.

After pondering the words in his mind for a moment, he continued to inquire.

"Have you recently sold a large quantity of Hong Dan to the people of the Dragon Tooth Village?"

"No, I only gave them Hong Dan for cultivation, not for selling."

"That's good."

Lu Yu nodded.

Although Mingxin didn't pay much attention to external matters, she still had a brain.

There was no problem with the pills she refined to enhance the strength of the people in the village. So the problem lies in... who sold the Hong Dan?

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yu concluded that if the problem didn't lie with Mingxin, then it must be someone in the village.

He left the quiet room and went to the neighboring residence of Wei Xiaoxian.

Wei Xiaoxian was diligently cultivating.

She felt guilty about Bai Linger's condition. After all, even Bai Linger, who was slightly weaker than her, had helped out in that situation, but she could only watch.

So as soon as she returned, she immediately started cultivating, hoping to improve her strength as soon as possible.

"Liu Zhaizhu, you're here."

Seeing Lu Yu come to find her, Wei Xiaoxian smiled lightly, and a blush appeared on her face.

Lu Yu was a little confused.

He just wanted to ask who in the village could have sold the Hong Dan, so why was she blushing?

"Um... I came to ask you something."

Lu Yu awkwardly scratched his head and quickly redirected the conversation to the main topic.

He briefly explained the situation about the Hong Dan to Wei Xiaoxian. After hearing it, the young girl immediately stood up.

"This kind of thing actually happened? I must investigate this thoroughly! The people from the Dragon Tooth Village actually did such a thing secretly. It's a disgrace to our village!"

Lu Yu could completely understand Wei Xiaoxian's excitement.

Although he was now the nominal village chief, this place was still her home.

If there were problems within the family, it would be strange if she wasn't excited.

"Don't think too negatively about it. Let's at least investigate and find out the truth before making any conclusions."

Lu Yu gently patted her shoulder to calm her down a bit, and then the two of them began to plan how to investigate and what to do after finding out the truth...
