Lu Yu pondered for a moment and replied,
"Manager Liu, the disciples of foreign sects have already started settling in Xianju."
"Yesterday, some disciples from the Voodoo Sect moved in near my residence."
Lu Yu sighed bitterly and said, "I am not good at fighting with others. If I were targeted by the Voodoo Sect, I'm afraid I would be defeated within just a few moves."
Manager Liu stared at Lu Yu for a moment and then consoled him, "Fellow Daoist Lu, there is no need to worry too much."
"The internal sect has received news that these foreign sect cultivators will withdraw in some time, ranging from five to six months to one or two years."
"As long as you act low-key, there shouldn't be any major problems. However, you do need to be more cautious since you are neighbors with the Voodoo Sect."
Speaking of this, he leaned closer to Lu Yu and whispered, "The Voodoo Sect has sent a branch of their witch sect this time."
"These cultivators are most skilled at seducing male cultivators and capturing them as their puppets. Those who are captured willingly remain loyal until death."
"They even use some strange insects and mysterious vessels, causing male cultivators to become walking corpses, mere empty shells."
"Fellow Daoist Lu Yu, although your cultivation level is not high, your ability to refine high-level spirit beast pills makes you a likely target for them."
"But the methods they use to recruit are both seductive and malicious..."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's old waist trembled, and both of his kidneys seemed to ache.
He secretly regretted why he had revealed his identity as a high-level pill refiner.
Originally, he wanted to use his identity as a pill refiner to deter others and avoid being targeted. But he never expected that his cleverness would backfire.
However, he quickly suppressed the shock on his face and asked, "Manager Liu, I saw those female cultivators from the Voodoo Sect yesterday. They all had friendly smiles, and their leader seemed well-prepared. Shouldn't they be..."
Manager Liu waved his hand to interrupt Lu Yu and sighed, "Fellow Daoist Lu, can I still deceive you?"
"The Voodoo Sect is despised by both righteous cultivators and poison cultivators. Their smiles are just to make others let down their guard."
"The one who plucks flowers may not necessarily hide a butcher's knife."
"The witch sect disciples of the Voodoo Sect are even more formidable than the female cultivators in the Long Feng Pavilion in the market."
"Their beauty has become a bone-chilling knife on the heads of countless male cultivators!"
"Fellow Daoist Lu Yu, aren't you afraid of the female cultivators in the Long Feng Pavilion?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's face was filled with shock.
The female cultivators of the Long Feng Pavilion were capable of flaying and torturing male cultivators.
How could he, at the fourth level of Qi Refining, resist them?
Lu Yu staggered a few steps, then inquired with Manager Liu about a lot of information before hastily leaving the Wan Ling Tower.
After hesitating for a moment, he headed straight to the Qingyun Pill Shop.
After Lu Yu and Jiang Yuru inquired about the price of pills that could resist bewitching techniques, their faces turned pale.
There were such pills, but they were extremely expensive.
The bewitching techniques of the female cultivators in the Long Feng Pavilion could be prevented by storing pills in the Lingtai.
But it was even more difficult to defend against the witch sect of the Voodoo Sect.
Not only could they seduce male cultivators, but they could also plant spirit vessels and poison vessels during the seduction.
Even if they wanted to use them, they needed spiritual tools that could be stored in the Lingtai, which cost hundreds of high-grade spirit stones.
Naturally, Lu Yu couldn't afford them.
Finally, Jiang Yuru mentioned that there were certain techniques that were naturally effective against the witch sect of the Long Feng Pavilion.
They even progressed faster than ordinary techniques, and those techniques could even achieve Foundation Building. The exchange price was not high either.
But to practice the Divine Palace technique, one had to castrate oneself first.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu shook his head and walked out of the Qingyun Pill Shop without even asking for the name of the technique.
...
On the way back to Tenglong Residence, Lu Yu secretly cursed himself.
This technique, for me, can harm the enemy a little but harm myself greatly.
He naturally wouldn't consider it.
But besides the method Jiang Yuru mentioned, Lu Yu himself came up with an idea: try not to go out in the future and avoid meeting female cultivators from the Witch Sect.
But if he doesn't go out, how will he deal with selling spirit beast pills for spirit stones and exchanging them for spirit food and spirit wine?
Although he can stock up on these things, if there's a shortage of spirit meat, Ling'er and Wanwan's combat power will likely decrease significantly.
Moreover, the Good Item Exchange Fair organized by the Qingyun Pill Shop is coming soon. Should he participate or not?
He still has his mind set on the Blue Fluorescent Elixir, which can help people break through the Qi Refining bottleneck.
Currently, the prices in the market are not high, and the Gathering Spirit Grass that Wanwan needs is also being sold cheaply. Lu Yu also intends to buy some high-level Gathering Spirit Pills to assist in cultivation.
As long as he works hard, he believes he can quickly break through to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
But the current situation makes it unsafe for Qin Qingrou to go out.
"Xiaolu, why do you look so worried?"
Qin Qingrou saw Lu Yu enter the small hall with an unusual expression and asked with concern.
The two of them have already broken through the window paper, so their relationship is intimate.
Lu Yu shared the information he had gathered outside and his concerns.
"If there's a need to go out in the future, let me go for you."
"I've encountered the Witch Sect's rogue cultivators before when I worked as a temporary laborer for the hunting cultivator team."
"And I've dealt with all kinds of killing methods, so at least I can resist a little."
Qin Qingrou smiled. Lu Yu shook his head. He wanted to go to the Good Item Exchange Fair at the Qingyun Pill Shop.
Selling spirit beast pills and procuring materials for spirit food are just minor matters.
"What? Are you afraid that I can't handle the female cultivators from the Witch Sect?"
Qin Qingrou sneered, "Although I don't have a guarantee of victory against the female cultivators from the Witch Sect, at least I am also a female cultivator."
"I'm not like you, who can only tease my two sisters. When I encounter a female cultivator of the same level, I'm like a silver spearhead."
Speaking of this, her cheeks suddenly blushed, mocking, "I used to hear your noises every night. Although you value your life, it seems like you also have a strong... interest."
Lu Yu felt embarrassed at her words and laughed, "Qin sister, I value my life more."
"Besides, I'm not interested in that. I... I just thought that you were suffering every night and wanted to invite you to join me, so I used my appearance..."
Before Lu Yu could finish speaking, he walked back to his quiet room and closed the door.
Qin Qingrou was stunned for a moment, "Me? Did I appear to be suffering before? Is he not interested in that?"
A few days later.
In the entire Xianju, a large number of cultivators headed to the General Affairs Office and walked out of the city under the escort of the thirteen sects' cultivators.
And each departing cultivator from the thirteen sects also moved into the vacant immortal mansions within Xianju.
Just as the Witch Sect's Ruyao and Ruyue arrived at Xianju, they knocked on Lu Yu's mansion door.
A trace of panic flashed in Lu Yu's eyes.
It seems that Liu the shopkeeper's guess was indeed correct. He has been targeted.
He opened the mansion door.
Lu Yu looked at the two Witch Sect cultivators.
Although both were dressed in dark robes, there were slight differences in style.
Ruyao's style was slightly more solemn, and she had a golden brooch on her chest. Coupled with her mature and beautiful temperament, she stood out even more.
Ruyue's robe style was simpler, slightly tightened at the waist, highlighting her delicate and graceful figure.
Lu Yu took a quick look and hurriedly welcomed the two women into the house.
"Two Fellow Daoists, welcome to my humble abode. I am Lu Yu, please have a seat."
