Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 246 Fall Of Xu Fellow Daoist

Dark abyss.

Filled with scorching crimson poisonous gas.

Everywhere is filled with terrifying and dangerous scenes.

And not long after walking, one's divine sense will detect a place where spiritual power is violently fluctuating.

Lu Yu, who has been living comfortably in cities like Poyun City and Gongyue City, suddenly feels uncomfortable.

However, this is only the first level of the abyss.

Moreover, he is accompanied by the powerful and renowned combatant, Fairy Wanyue, who protects him.

After a while, the discomfort in his heart quickly dissipates.

This is because the sky is gradually darkening.

Fairy Wanyue speaks up:

"After nightfall, the abyssal beasts become more dangerous and appear mysteriously."

"Let's return to Gongyue City and rest for now. We can come back another day."

Lu Yu nods slightly.

In the following months.

He spends three to four hours every day going to the abyss to fight against the abyssal beasts.

Refining his ability to multitask.

On this day, the sky is nearing dusk again.

A streak of light shoots up from the abyss and lands on the neighboring square.

After entering Gongyue City, the streak of light instantly disappears and turns into two blurry figures, falling straight from the sky.

Occasionally, some distracted cultivators on the square catch sight of them and curiously probe with their divine sense, secretly surprised.

Foundation Building and Core Formation cultivators dare to venture into the abyss together?

In the world of cultivators, there is no room for mistakes.

Otherwise, it is very likely to be targeted and devoured.

Once targeted, if one leaves the city, they will end up being killed for their treasures.

Therefore, most sects have the role of protector, specifically for cultivating promising but weak cultivators.

But there are also cultivators who have protectors and agree to certain rules with them.

Unless one is in imminent danger and their life is at risk, the protector should not easily intervene.

Fairy Wanyue has also suggested this to Lu Yu.

However, she was immediately rejected by Lu Yu.

Jokingly, it is impossible for him to face danger directly.

He is not interested in the path of longevity that seeks breakthroughs between life and death.

Any danger that can be called dangerous, he demands that Fairy Wanyue intervene immediately.

After all, if he gets injured and it delays his daily dual cultivation for gains, it would not be good.

Furthermore, even if Fairy Wanyue focuses on protecting him when she goes into the abyss, there will inevitably be moments of negligence.

At that time, he will be the unlucky one.

If he loses a body part, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

And if he damages the tool that he uses to gain benefits in dual cultivation, it would be even more of a loss.

Many times, fate often changes with a single thought.

However, Lu Yu is clear that not all cultivators can live comfortably in the immortal cities and pursue the path of longevity in a gentle manner.

Just like Fairy Wanyue beside him.

Every time she fights against the abyssal beasts, even if it's just a casual kill, he can clearly see a faint sense of satisfaction on her face.

This is the way of combat cultivators who pursue powerful techniques.

Boom! Boom...

Not long after, several streaks of light fall into the neighboring square.

Lu Yu secretly sighs in his heart that the cultivators in Gongyue City seem to be much stronger than those in Poyun City.

However, the method of entering the forbidden area of Gongyue City is something that Poyun City has never seen before.

After returning to Gongyue City.

Lu Yu doesn't rush back to his small residence.

He first goes to the Qingyun Shop.

Using the accumulated merit points, he exchanges them for a Tiancan Huan Jing Dan.

While resting in a private room, he coincidentally meets Fellow Daoist Yao Qianji, who has come to purchase cultivation materials.

The two of them enjoy tea and chat for a while.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, have you heard about the incident of Fellow Daoist Xu's demise?"

As soon as Yao Qianji puts down his teacup, he immediately speaks with a complex expression.

"You mean the Fellow Daoist Xu who invited me personally to join the cultivators heading to Gongyue City?"

"How is that possible?"

Also invited together was his fellow Daoist.

Qingyun Shop also arranged a nice residence for them as a couple.

As long as they diligently engage in production, there is no need to go out and take risks, so how could they suddenly fall?

When he was drinking and chatting with Xu Fellow Daoist, he had also heard him boast about having more than two hundred years of lifespan.

It is also highly possible for him to advance to the Foundation Building stage.

How could he suddenly fall?

Yao Qianji remained silent for a while before softly saying,

"It seems that it was Fellow Daoist Xu's fate to encounter this calamity."

"Speaking of which, the one who should bear the most responsibility for this is me."

"Not long ago, the two of them invited me to explore a secret realm together."

"It is said that there are ancient talisman jade slips inside."

"That Xu Fellow Daoist is extremely obsessed with the art of refining spirit talismans."

"Even though I warned him that there might be variables, he still pressed forward with his fellow Daoist."

"As a result, the accompanying cultivators indeed harbored evil intentions."

"To protect his fellow Daoist and let her escape, he self-detonated his spiritual platform and died."

"What about Xu Fellow Daoist's fellow Daoist?"

"Fellow Daoist Xiao Wang suffered some injuries to her face, but other than that, she is fine."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu's expression froze, filled with sorrow.

"I also bear a lot of responsibility for this matter."

"If I hadn't invited Fellow Daoist Xu and his fellow Daoist to come to Gongyue City on the immortal ship that day, perhaps this tragedy wouldn't have happened..."

Yao Qianji immediately interrupted to console him,

"Fellow Daoist Lu, you don't need to blame yourself."

"If you had stayed in Poyun City, you wouldn't have been able to avoid the disaster either."

"A while ago, Lao Ren sent me a message."

It included information about the recent situation in Poyun City."

"A demonic cultivator from the Asura Demon Sect disguised himself as a poison cultivator from the Wan Du Sect."

"After entering the city, he opened the city gates and let in a large number of fellow demonic cultivators."

That day, the entire Poyun City turned into a purgatory on earth."

"Even scattered cultivators with Foundation Building cultivation were unable to leave safely."

Upon hearing this,

Lu Yu's expression showed surprise as he said,

"So you mean Poyun City is even more dangerous now?"

"Yes." Yao Qianji nodded angrily. "It is not easy for cultivators to reach the Foundation Building stage."

"But those forces formed by the major sects don't care about the life and death of scattered cultivators."

"It is said that after the Asura Demon Sect, in order to consolidate their position of power in Poyun City, they invited other demonic sects to join them."

"Such as the Qingyun Commercial Gate or other commercial forces, they already have plans to evacuate."

"Ren Shopkeeper and Ye Shopkeeper from the peripheral market of the Holy Spirit Mountain will also evacuate Poyun City soon."

"When the time comes, when we welcome them, Fellow Daoist Lu must not be absent."

With a change of topic, Yao Qianji smiled faintly.

Lu Yu nodded slightly, somewhat absent-mindedly saying,

"That's natural."

The two of them chatted for a long time, including their feelings after coming to Gongyue City, and then bid farewell to each other.

Night fell.

While having dinner in the small hall on the second floor, Lu Yu looked at Qin Qingrou and sighed,

"Rou'er, Fellow Daoist Xu was killed."

Qin Qingrou was stunned for a moment, then sighed as well,

"Senior Xu was sincere and extremely hospitable."

"He was one of the few warm-hearted cultivators in the world of cultivators."

"I didn't expect that even such a cultivator would encounter danger when leaving Poyun City during the turmoil."

"But he encountered trouble in a safe place like Gongyue City."

Lu Yu nodded in agreement,

"In the world of cultivators, there is no room for mistakes."

"Even if the days are good now, we must not give up on our cultivation efforts."

"And also, in the future, unless both Wanyue Fairy and I agree or accompany you."

"You must never leave Gongyue City."

"In the world of cultivators, there are no free lunches, and opportunities cannot be easily encountered."

Upon hearing this, the wives all responded one after another, and then continued to console him.
