“`However, he felt fortunate for his past decision to foster relations and invest in Lu Changsheng. “Take the elixir medicine.” Lu Changsheng looked at his son, Lu Quanzhen, with one glance. Noticing that his breath was slightly disordered, he must have sustained some minor injuries. Updated by ℕovG○.co He flicked a bottle of healing pills from his storage bag and had his son take them. “Father, it’s just some minor injuries, I’ll recover after ten days to half a month.” Lu Quanzhen took the medicine and spoke respectfully. “If I tell you to take it, then take it, no need to save money at home.” Lu Changsheng said. “Brother Lu, this trip was my fault. I went out to capture a robber cultivator, confident it was a sure success.” “But unexpectedly, this person actually had a spiritual pet hidden in the shadows that ambushed Quanzhen.” Hong Yi quickly said. “It’s fine, where can one be without getting hurt sometimes?” Updated by NovG○.co “Such experiences can also teach a lesson.” Lu Changsheng waved his hand dismissively upon hearing this. He then instructed Lu Quanzhen to go and tend to his injuries. “This child takes his leave.” Lu Quanzhen, realizing that his father must have had something to discuss with Hong Yi, excused himself immediately. Shortly after, Lu Changsheng took out drinks and made small talk with Hong Yi, inquiring about his son, Lu Quanzhen’s performance over the past two years, as well as inquiring about some matters of the Lu family. In this regard, Hong Yi naturally did not dare to conceal anything and reported everything about Lu Quanzhen’s performance in detail. He mentioned that initially, he didn’t dare let Lu Quanzhen do anything dangerous, and he only did odd jobs, but Lu Quanzhen had a steady character and handled the tasks with order and without mess. Later on, he started to take charge of some affairs and managed everything in a very orderly and proper manner. Over the past half year, he had been taking Lu Quanzhen with him on some missions to capture robber cultivators and demon beasts, and Lu Quanzhen had shown to be courageous and tactful, decisive in killing. “Brother Hong, don’t just selectively praise him.” Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows at this. He knew his son was precocious and had strong opinions, but he didn’t expect him to receive such high praise from Hong Yi. “Brother Lu, how could I possibly deceive you about this kind of matter?” “Quanzhen truly excels in this regard.” Hong Yi said with a wry smile. As he spoke, he slapped on flattery, “I suppose it’s also due to the influence from growing up under your guidance, Brother Lu, that Quanzhen has shown such excellence.” Ṙ????ƝȱΒÈ§ “Since that’s the case, let’s continue to have him hone his skills under your mentorship for a few more years, Brother Hong.” “His mother worries about him every day, and I was thinking that if he doesn’t adapt, he should come back earlier to manage the business in the marketplace.” Lu Changsheng nodded slightly and said aloud. He had thought that if his son, Lu Quanzhen, had only shown mediocre performance, there would be no need to keep fighting and killing on this front. He would bring him back to Qingzhu Mountain and go to Red Leaf Valley Market to be responsible for some affairs. However, since his son indeed had the talent, he would leave him with Hong Yi to continue his experience. “Rest assured, Brother Lu, I will certainly take good care of Quanzhen!” Hong Yi raised his glass and spoke respectfully. He had initially wanted to marry his daughter, who had a Spiritual Root, to Lu Quanzhen. But now that Lu Changsheng had made a breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, he felt a bit embarrassed to bring up the subject. In his heart, he planned that when the time was right, he would have his daughter make an effort to get Lu Quanzhen to bring up the matter with his father. “I’ll have to trouble you then, Brother Hong.” Lu Changsheng nodded, clinked glasses in return, and also inquired about Hong Yi’s current situation. Since the other party was handling all sorts of miscellaneous affairs for him, it was only proper to reciprocate, and naturally, he would also help in resolving some matters in return. In this manner, as the two of them talked on, they discussed Li Feiyu, Han Lin, Zhao Qingqing, and Xiao Xiyue. Li Feiyu had gone to Azure Phoenix Immortal City and, apart from writing two letters over the years, there hadn’t been much contact. Apart from Xiao Xiyue, Lu Changsheng also had not been in touch with Han Lin and Zhao Qingqing. However, Hong Yi had kept in touch with both Han Lin and Zhao Qingqing and even conducted quite a bit of business with them. For instance, when they needed to collect some materials or information within the sect, they could leave it to Hong Yi to take care of. If Hong Yi had any needs, he would also write to the two, as it was a mutually beneficial arrangement. In the midst of the conversation, Hong Yi relayed the latest news about the two to Lu Changsheng. “` Han Lin had a small talent in artifact refining and was now a superior Artifact Refiner at the Eighth Level Energy Refinement. Zhao Qingqing had already reached the Ninth Level Energy Refinement and was preparing for Foundation Establishment. “It seems that in a few years, Daoist Zhao will also be able to break through Foundation Establishment,” Lu Changsheng said with a smile. She remembered that Zhao Qingqing possessed a Vegbody and was taken as a disciple by an Outer Sect elder of Qingyun Sect. Maybe she could exchange for a Foundation Establishment Elixir to break through Foundation Establishment. “It’s not that simple.” “Years ago, Daoist Zhao asked me to help keep an eye out for news about Foundation Establishment Spirit Objects.” “She indicated that her contributions couldn’t exchange for a Foundation Establishment Elixir in the Sect, but only for a ‘Meridian Protecting Elixir’.” “At that time, she could only rely on Foundation Establishment Spirit Objects to attempt Foundation Establishment.” Hong Yi shook his head and sighed. “Oh, doesn’t she have a master?” “Won’t the master lend a hand and help?” Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised. In the Cultivation World, the mentor-disciple relationship is no less significant than the parent-child relationship. Thus, as a master, most would nurture and help their own disciples. “I have heard a little about it. Daoist Zhao’s master has a grandchild who is an Inner Sect Disciple of Qingyun Sect.” “She originally took in Daoist Zhao as a disciple to facilitate a match between Zhao and her grandchild.” “But Zhao Qingqing was unwilling, so the relationship between master and disciple is not good. Otherwise, with a master who is an Outer Sect elder, Daoist Zhao might have been able to exchange for a Foundation Establishment Elixir.” Hong Yi sighed as he spoke. “Indeed, it seems you can’t escape worldly concerns anywhere.” Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng also shook his head and sighed. He had thought that since Zhao Qingqing had awakened a Vegbody and been taken in by Qingyun Sect’s medicine garden manager as a disciple, her future Foundation Establishment was hopeful. Unexpectedly, she still couldn’t escape the worldly concerns and covetousness. After chatting idly for a long time, Hong Yi took his leave from Lu Changsheng. Afterward, Lu Changsheng asked his son Lu Quanzhen if he planned to return home with him or stay here. “If mother sees my injuries, she’s going to fuss over it again.” Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. “I’ll visit father and mother at Qingzhu Mountain after some time has passed.” Lu Quanzhen said. Ordinarily he wasn’t afraid of much, but he did dread his mother’s nagging. If she saw any injuries on him, she would surely worry and prevent him from going out. At that point, if his mother cried and spoke a few words to his father, his father might just agree to it. “Alright, you’ve always been sensible. Take care of these matters as you see fit.” Lu Changsheng nodded without insisting. After that, he continued, “In the future, if you ever feel uncertain about something or go out on some task, you can take Jiuyou with you for support.” “Jiuyou?” Lu Quanzhen was taken aback. “That’s Xiao Hei.” Lu Changsheng explained. Because they had originally brought the Jiuyou back home simply as a companion for the children to play with, they had given it the modest name ‘Xiao Hei.’ As a result, these children barely knew the name Nine Netherhound. “Xiao Hei doesn’t seem to be very close to me.” Upon hearing this, Lu Quanzhen scratched his head and said. He knew that the spiritual pet his father raised was very powerful. But the Nine Netherhound was mostly close to the children like Lu Ping’an, Lu Wuyou, and Lu Wuyu, who had grown up together. It did not show much closeness to him. “Alright, I’ll have a word with it.” Lu Changsheng said. He took Lu Quanzhen to meet the Nine Netherhound, asking it to heed Lu Quanzhen’s words from time to time. He also gave Lu Quanzhen a Spiritual Pet Bag and three bottles of pet-nourishing pills to tend to the Nine Netherhound and keep it inside the Spiritual Pet Bag while traveling. “Thank you, father!” Lu Quanzhen bowed and thanked. After settling all the family matters, Lu Changsheng boarded the Spirit Boat with Lu Miaoge, Lu Ping’an, and a few other children, returning to Qingzhu Mountain.
