Chapter 236 Life Span Exceeds 500 Years
Lu Changan was not angry when Fang Zhong revealed his identity.
He had anticipated this day.
This is because Lu Changan's ship ticket to Jing State was obtained through the relationship of Li Erqing's grandson "Li Congren" and through the relationship of the Crescent Chamber of Commerce.
In the past, Lu Changan's presence in the Wufu Chamber of Commerce was low and his performance was mediocre, so the Crescent Chamber of Commerce would not focus on investigating him.
But two years ago, Lu Changan defeated Fang Zhong and heroically saved Xia Shenglan. Not long ago, he was "promoted" to the later stage of foundation building.
Such a figure, who can take charge of a large chamber of commerce, will inevitably come into the sight of the senior management of New Moon.
In addition, Fang Zhong suffered a defeat at the hands of Lu Changan, which would definitely exaggerate the latter's strength.
If Lu Changan had exposed his strength and killed Fang Zhong at that time, his identity would have been leaked even earlier, before the Earth Rock Rat formed a pill.
"Fellow Daoist Fang is here just to reveal Lu's true identity?"
Lu Changan stopped pretending and said in a cold tone.
"Lu is not a wanted criminal. He is an innocent cultivator with a well-known reputation in Liang State. Even if this matter is leaked, it will be of little importance to Lu."
The implication is that Lu Changan has no control over this matter.
Fang Zhong was startled for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "Brother Lu misunderstood, Fang did not mean to threaten. In any case, the two of us are the hometown of his country."
Fang Zhong and Lu Changan are different.
The former was a war deserter in the immortal world of Liang Kingdom and was wanted by the sect. He was on the run in Jing Kingdom to avoid pursuit.
In contrast, Lu Changan's identity and reputation as a good old man can completely withstand investigation and he has no worries.
"Brother Lu, this time Fang is representing the Crescent Chamber of Commerce to persuade you to join our Chamber of Commerce. As long as you agree, the treatment offered by the Crescent Chamber of Commerce will be three times that of the Xia family!"
"You don't have to worry about the second-level spiritual contract. There will be real people to help you break it."
"Brother Lu has always been wise to protect himself. He should understand the gap between the two major chambers of commerce. How can an egg be completed under a large crowd..."
Fang Zhong’s persuasion was sound and well-founded.
"I am disappointed with Brother Fang. Lu has already adapted to his life in Qingshawan and doesn't want to have to deal with it again."
Lu Changan thought for a moment and shook his head.
In Qingshawan and Qiufeng Island, he has stabilized. Including two spiritual pets, they found a suitable habitat.
The black wood gourd and vine connect the earth's energy at the bottom of the pond, and have a secret cultivation site.
Moreover, the Qingshawan Xia Clan treated him well, and the main leader of the clan was not bad in character.
The right location and the right people are rare, so there is no need for him to change the environment and gamble on uncertainty.
"Then I wish Fellow Daoist Lu a smooth journey."
Fang Zhong shrugged his shoulders and left quickly without forcing himself.
Fang Zhong came to negotiate alone, and there was no ambush nearby.
Therefore, Lu Changan was willing to chat with him and did not kill him.
After learning about Lu Changan's identity, both Fang Zhong and the Crescent Chamber of Commerce should understand that sending one or two people to build the foundation in the later stage will not be able to do anything to Lu Changan.
Lu Changan himself is in the late stage of foundation building, and he also has a spiritual pet from a fellow practitioner.
More importantly, he is also an older Talisman Master with outstanding skills and may be a quasi-third-level Talisman Master.
Even if the Crescent Chamber of Commerce sends out a fake elixir master, there is no guarantee that Lu Changan will be solved in a short period of time, and there is a possibility that the latter will escape.
…
Two days later.
A thin old man in raincoat clothes, who was over sixty years old, flew into the misty fairy city on the water.
Lu Changan came to Yunyan Fairy City with ease.
This time I am still staying at the Xunxianfu Inn, but I don’t need to accompany him anymore.
Lu Changan's consciousness searched the inn, but Wang Feng was not found.
Wang Feng, the prince who came from Liang State, was seriously injured, damaging his Dantian meridians and causing his cultivation to drop.
When they saw each other for the first time, Lu Changan gave him a healing prescription.
Now there is no trace, and the fate is unpredictable.
Lu Changan didn't take it seriously and just did it casually.
The next day.
Lu Changan went to the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce in the city to visit Master Hanyu.
During this reception, the cold and beautiful Master Hanyu showed a bit of restrained joy and enthusiasm in his words and deeds.
"It may take half a month to collect the third-level beast pills needed by Master Xiang, as well as the auxiliary materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill. Master Xiang might as well live in the house and let me entertain you."
Master Han Yu suggested.
"Isn't this inconvenient?" Lu Changan hesitated.
"Master Xiang, are you still afraid that I am just a fake elixir master? With such a talent, don't you want to repay your promise to me?"
Hanyu's red lips pursed lightly, showing a mixture of jokes, grievances, and anger. Coupled with her elegant and snowy temperament, she had an unspeakable aura.
"If staying here for half a month can offset Master Hanyu's favor, that's not a bad idea."
Lu Changan smiled.
"Zhenzhen Xiang has a beautiful idea. How can you live and eat for free and still pay off your debts?"
Master Hanyu chuckled like a silver bell.
She secretly thought: This real person is quite thick-skinned, which is consistent with the rumors.
In the past year or two, the monks from the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce have also secretly investigated the information about Zhenren Xiang.
A few years earlier, Xiang Zhenren was operating in the border areas, blocking roads and robbing ships, which was very impressive.
Later, for unknown reasons, Xiang Zhenren was no longer active in the border area. He seemed to be performing other secret missions of the Demon Cult, resulting in his whereabouts being unpredictable.
That night, Master Han Yu personally hosted a banquet for Lu Changan.
The two of them drank a few jars of spiritual wine, and even the fake elixir master would be at least a little tipsy.
Both sides were equally skilled in cultivation, and drinking and talking together brought them closer. The topic ranged from the situation in the world of immortal cultivation, the internal grievances of the business alliance, to personal experiences.
Han Yu Zhenren seemed to be unable to handle the alcohol, and her delicate snow-white face was flushed with a faint red like the morning glow.
"Zhenren Xiang is a rare talent among his peers, so don't you have a Taoist partner?"
She looked at Lu Changan with a pair of icy eyes, and said in surprise.
"No! Xiang is a vulgar person, how can a female cultivator of the same realm look down on me?"
Lu Changan heard the elegant meaning of the string music, took a sip of wine, and said along with the conversation.
"Zhenren Xiang is too modest. Your status and position are now comparable to that of a real elixir. Which fake elixir female cultivator would not favor you?"
Zhenren Han Yu Zhenren, wearing a silver-haired snow-white robe, came closer and personally filled Lu Changan with spiritual wine.
Lu Changan smelled a fragrance like snow lotus, and moved his legs to touch the smooth and delicate fabric of the female cultivator's skirt.
"I am very happy to be praised by Han Yu Zhenren."
The two drank two more jars of spirit wine, and the distance between them became closer and closer, and they could feel each other's breathing.
Unconsciously, the icy and dignified female Zhenren half hugged and half sat in Lu Changan's arms, her silver hair and snow skirt were messy, revealing a pair of slender thighs with ice-like skin.
"No! Master Xiang!"
Han Yu Zhenren seemed to be drowning, and her plump and cold red lips separated from Lu Changan violently. At the same time, her jade hand grabbed an old palm and pushed it away from the edge of the skirt that was almost half-unbuttoned.
"Hehe! Master Han Yu, why not? This time, didn't you take the initiative to seduce me..."
At this time, Lu Changan was the character of Master Xiang. He didn't want gentlemanly manners, and rough behavior was in line with his style.
...
Ten days later.
In the residence of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce, in an elegant bedroom with the scent of sandalwood.
Squeak!
The second-grade high-quality spirit wood made the gums, which were almost shaking to pieces.
Han Yu Zhenren supported herself on the bed with her white arms, her beautiful back was facing an old man in his sixties wearing a straw raincoat, who was holding her waist and hips.
Under their feet, there were beautiful white dresses scattered, but now they looked messy and messy under the trampling.
Whoosh!
A sound transmission talisman flew into the bedroom. The two glanced at each other and continued to be affectionate.
Half an hour later.
Han Yu Zhenren changed into a spotless snow-white palace dress and raised her hand to take the sound transmission talisman.
She said leisurely: "Brother Xiang, the materials for the third-level beast pills and foundation-building pills you want have been collected..."
"Han Yu, your chamber of commerce is very efficient."
Lu Changan praised.
"Brother Xiang, when you become rich in the future, don't forget the good things of me and the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce."
Han Yu Zhenren said with a smile.
"Xiang remembers! And the oath of the inner demon a few days ago."
Lu Changan said generously.
As the helmsman of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce, Han Yu Zhenren has a face as white as snow and a beautiful temperament, but it is not so easy to win.
At the beginning, they were close and distant, and they held the last hurdle tightly.
In the end, when the two were frank with each other, Han Yu Zhenren asked Lu Changan to make a heart demon oath with "I am Xiang Jinglong" and not violate the promise owed to the Chamber of Commerce and her personally.
Lu Changan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he simply made a heart demon oath with "I am Xiang Jinglong".
After being intimate, Han Yu Zhenren was sure of Lu Changan's identity as Xiang Jinglong.
Because the other party's body was too strong, several beds had been damaged, making her delicate body overwhelmed.
Fortunately, as a fake Dan Zhenren, Han Yu Zhenren's physical strength and flexibility far exceeded the female foundation-building cultivator, and she could barely withstand Lu Changan's offensive.
In this ridiculous way, Lu Changan spent ten days of free food, free accommodation and free whoring.
...
In the side hall.
Lu Changan and Han Yu Zhenren sat at the top.
Gao Songcheng, the elder of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce, handed over a storage bag.
Lu Changan took the materials, checked them quickly, and nodded with satisfaction.
There were two bottles of third-level beast pills in the storage bag. The rock rat ate one pill every month, which was enough to support it for several years.
The rock rat practiced underground on Qiufeng Island. The spiritual environment was poor, and the pills could not be lacking.
In addition, there were two auxiliary materials for foundation-building pills in the storage bag.
Lu Changan had the most critical main medicine, and it was not difficult for a large chamber of commerce like the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce to collect other materials.
"This is the spirit stone."
Lu Changan handed a bag of heavy spirit stones to Han Yu Zhenren.
"Thank you, Master Xiang, for taking care of the business of this chamber of commerce."
Han Yu Zhenren counted the spirit stones and nodded.
"Xiang has something important to deal with. I will come to talk to you next time."
Lu Changan did not stay any longer and stood up to say goodbye.
"Master Xiang, take care."
Han Yu Zhenren sent him to the gate of the chamber of commerce.
Watching the old man in the straw raincoat leave, recalling the experience of the past few days, Han Yu Zhenren Qingyan had a blank expression on his face, holding back a slight physical discomfort.
…
Lu Changan walked out of the residence of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce, but did not leave Yunyan Fairy City immediately.
Recently, there was a small auction in the fairy city, and it was said that there were ordinary second-level longevity pills for sale.
Waited for more than ten days.
Lu Changan participated in the small auction as a white-haired old man in the late stage of foundation building.
After successfully bidding for a second-level longevity pill, Lu Changan returned to the Xia clan in Qingsha Bay.
This time, there were no cultivators who blocked or followed him.
Lu Changan successfully returned to Qiufeng Island and handed the third-level beast pill to the rock rat, who happily returned to the underground.
In the training room.
Lu Changan took the sixth ordinary second-level longevity pill.
The longevity effect this time was far from comparable to the fine product last time.
Only extended his life for five years.
This also met Lu Changan's expectations, after all, the superposition effect will gradually decrease.
"Life span finally exceeded 500 years!"
Lu Changan's life span has now reached 502 years, basically entering the life span range of True Dan cultivators.
After taking the longevity pill, Lu Changan couldn't help but think that his true identity was discovered by the Crescent Chamber of Commerce.
"The Five Blessings Chamber of Commerce will also know this news in the future."
Lu Changan considered whether to confess his identity to the Xia family in advance.
In the end, he decided to let nature take its course.
Whether it is Lu Changan or Master Wu Fan, his needs remain unchanged.
In a stable spiritual vein dojo, it takes decades to cultivate and transition to the peak of the late foundation building stage.
...
Another half a year has passed.
Lu Changan is now 148 years old.
It has been eight years since he was promoted to the late foundation building stage at Xiaogui Peak.
Lu Changan felt that his progress in the seventh level of foundation building was more than halfway.
Three days later, he gave the two medicine boys a holiday, bathed and burned incense, and began to retreat and refine pills.
This time, the pill to be refined is the foundation-building pill.
Seven days later.
Lu Changan consumed a portion of the materials for the foundation-building pill and successfully started the furnace.
"One useless pill... two inferior pills..."
Lu Changan looked at the three pills in his palm, one of which was cracked like black carbon; the other two were full of grains and bright in color, but only had three and a half Dao patterns.
Inferior foundation-building pills are also foundation-building pills, which can increase the probability of foundation-building.
For low-level casual cultivators, it is still a dream come true.
Lu Changan collected two inferior foundation-building pills and another portion of the materials for the foundation-building pill, preparing to refine them again in the future when he is confident.
At the Qiufeng Island Mansion, Lu Changan reviewed the process of refining the pill this time and checked for omissions.
...
A few days later.
Young Master Xia Mingqu came to visit.
"Young Master, please come in."
This time, Lu Changan found that the handsome young master had a slightly strange expression.
The maid Xia Wenyue waited on the side, making tea and pouring water.
The two chatted over tea, talking about everything under the sun.
Xia Mingqu sighed, "Now the war of immortal cultivation in neighboring countries is at a stalemate. In addition to the chaos in the border area, there are many deserters who rob cultivators and wander into the territory of Jing State, causing instability in the trade route."
"In order to improve the life-saving ability of the Chamber of Commerce cultivators, our Chamber of Commerce has purchased a lot of high-quality talismans, but they are still scarce."
"High-quality talismans are scarce."
Lu Changan said calmly.
Xia Mingqu smiled like a spring breeze, looked at Lu Changan and said:
"By the way, Master Wu Dan. Do you know a friend who is an outstanding talisman master? My Wufu Chamber of Commerce is willing to hire him with a large sum of money and treat him as a worshiper."
