Chapter 235 Identity Leak

Seven days later.

The realm of the Earth Rock Rat was initially stabilized.

To avoid more trouble, Lu Changan said goodbye to the two real people of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce.

Real people Guangjun and Hanyu did not try to stop him, and personally sent Lu Changan out of the Iron Fortress.

"Real people Xiang, don't forget your promise to me."

Before leaving, Hanyu, who was wearing silver hair and snow robe, spoke with a cold and magnetic voice.

"Xiang is a trustworthy person."

Lu Changan left a word, drove the flying boat, and broke through the air.

Before borrowing the training ground this time, Lu Changan had promised a favor to the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce.

During the process of the Earth Rock Rat's Dan formation, Lu Changan got the cooperation of Hanyu to kill Huxiao Zhenren, so that the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce would share the risk.

At that time, in order to stabilize this woman, Lu Changan made another personal promise to her.

Whether these two favors, one big and one small, are completed depends on the difficulty of what the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce is asking for.

If the difficulty is not great and it goes with the flow, Lu Changan does not mind repaying it.

If the things he wants are risky, or even calculated, trying to get him involved in the vortex.

Then I'm sorry, this is a debt owed by Master Xiang, and it has nothing to do with the low-key and diligent old Lu.

"What kind of monster is this Master Xiang's? He didn't show his talent even after the success of Danjie?"

Master Guangjun, holding a cane, had a wrinkled face with a hint of doubt.

From beginning to end, they didn't see Lu Changan's pet.

When Lu Changan left, he also put the rock rat into the pet bag.

"Maybe it's an extremely rare earth-grade or even heaven-grade monster? Master Xiang is going to use it as a secret weapon to serve the forces behind him?"

Master Hanyu speculated.

"There is some truth." Master Guangjun didn't delve into it, and nodded: "You should maintain appropriate exchanges with this Master Xiang. If I'm not here in the future, this may be an alternative way out..."

...

Lu Changan flew fifty or sixty miles in the Black Mist Mountains and stopped in front of a forest.

Roar!

In the forest, a terrifying beast roar was heard, and the huge body of the third-level bear monster was looming.

Squeak!

The rock rat crawled out of the spirit pet bag, passed by a few afterimages, entered the forest, and communicated closely with the third-level bear monster.

After being promoted to the third level, the rock rat was already quite large, but in front of the third-level bear monster that was like a small hill, it looked miniature.

A quarter of an hour later.

The rock rat said goodbye to the third-level bear monster, returned from the forest, and entered Lu Changan's spirit pet bag.

The third-level bear monster's face showed disappointment.

Although Lu Changan was not proficient in the language of monsters, he could see the third-level bear monster's intention to win him over.

Fortunately, the rock rat was determined and was not abducted.

The monster world is also full of mountains and powerful forces.

A third-level monster can already occupy the mountain and influence a territory in the depths of the Black Mist Mountains.

Fortunately, even if the deal fails, there is still righteousness.

The rock rat met a powerful third-order monster on this trip, which was an unexpected gain.

On the way back, Lu Changan considered future plans.

The rock rat successfully formed a pill, which was a huge benefit.

In the future, when Lu Changan strives to reach the stage of forming a pill, he will have a third-order monster to protect him, which greatly increases his safety.

As a Liang country cultivator who sneaked across the border, Lu Changan no longer has to worry about his identity being leaked.

"However, the quality of the rock rat's pill, especially the golden pill Dao rhyme on the true pill, must be kept secret."

At least before Lu Changan forms a pill, this matter must be kept strictly confidential, otherwise it would be a crime to possess a treasure.

The atmosphere of forming a pill is difficult to conceal, but the quality of the pill can be concealed.

Lu Changan had a method to conceal the quality of the pill in his previous life, which can be applied to monsters.

In the future, as long as the rock rat does not fight with all its strength, at least it will be difficult to see the clues of the stage of forming a pill.

...

Lu Changan purchased some food for the rock rat from the fairy city on the way, and then returned to the Xia tribe in Qingshui Bay.

The pills and animal pills for the third-level monster beasts are hard to buy.

The rock rat has just advanced, so the demand is not great for the time being. Lu Changan plans to purchase through the channels of the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce in the future.

The first thing to do when returning to Qiufeng Island.

Lu Changan put the large porcelain jar where the black wood gourd vine was planted back into the stone house at the bottom of the deep pool.

In the future, the gourd vine will be guarded by a third-level monster, so safety is not a problem.

In order to avoid insufficient supply of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, Lu Changan put more spiritual stones into the spirit gathering array on Qiufeng Island so as not to show abnormalities.

Fortunately, the rock rat just entered the third level, and it was not a human true pill, and it was not an environment that required the third-level spiritual vein.

Half a month later.

The realm of the rock rat was completely stable, and Lu Changan had a preliminary understanding of its abilities.

Compared with the bloodline mutation when it was promoted to the second level.

After the rock rat was promoted to the third level, there was no obvious change in the bloodline and talent level.

The biggest change was the leap in strength and talent spells.

For example, the earth escape technique, the rock rats used it only superficially before. Now, the earth escape technique has truly entered the palace, and it can escape underground more smoothly.

Even while escaping underground, it can also take people to shuttle underground.

After the monster beast forms a pill, more inherited memories emerge in the blood, including the use of some knowledge and magic talents.

"Sharp senses, strong sense of smell, good at close range assassination..."

Lu Changan discovered that the ability of the rock rat's blood mutation was also inherited and enhanced after being promoted to the third level.

This is a talent beyond ordinary rock rats.

...

In the blink of an eye, nearly a year has passed.

The Xia clan members had no idea that a terrifying third-level monster was lurking in the clan territory.

Qiufeng Island is located in a quiet place outside the clan territory, covered by a quasi-third-level formation. The rock rats are deliberately hidden, practicing underground or in cold ponds all year round.

Unless the clan leader Xia Hongyu personally investigates, it is difficult to see the clues.

"Miss Xia, please go slowly."

Lu Changan sent Xia Shenglan, who was bright and dignified in a long ice blue dress, out of the Qiufeng Island mansion.

Watching the girl's back, Lu Changan's face was calm.

In the past year, Xia Shenglan has become a frequent visitor to Qiufeng Island, and she comes to visit from time to time.

Sometimes it is for alchemy needs, and sometimes it is for tea and chat.

If Lu Changan is in seclusion and has not come out, Xia Shenglan does not care, and will chat with the maid Xia Wenyue.

"This girl knows how to please him."

Lu Changan took out a jade tube that the other party brought on this trip.

The jade tube records the war intelligence of Liangguo's immortal cultivation world in the past year.

"The Liangguo Music Sect'Xuanyin Pavilion' was breached a year ago, and only some of the senior leaders fled with the female cultivators..."

"The Qingming Secret Realm is open as usual, but due to the war, some changes have occurred. It is said that this time the secret realm opened and a major opportunity for Dan formation appeared..."

"Tianfeng Zhenren of Jinyun Valley was hunted down by the Zhendan cultivators of Fengguo, and his whereabouts are unknown."

The jade tube mentions important figures in Liangguo's immortal cultivation war.

Among the cultivators Lu Changan knows, only Zhang Tieshan or Master Fairy can be recorded on it.

...

Two days later, Lu Changan was ready to start refining the elixir.

"Master Wu Dan, this is the invitation letter sent by the president."

A thin girl in a plain skirt and eyebrows like indigo presented an invitation.

Lu Changan took the invitation and glanced at Xia Wenyue.

He has been on Qiufeng Island for several years, and the appearance of this maid and medicine boy has hardly changed. Still pale, like a beautiful flower reflecting in the water.

However, Xia Wenyue is proficient in pharmacology, and female cultivators have many ways to maintain their youth. Lu Changan was not surprised by this.

Lu Changan read the content of the invitation, told Xia Wenyue a few words, and then left Qiufeng Island.

There are two very important people in the Xia Clan of Qingsha Bay.

One is the clan leader Xia Hongyu, who has the highest cultivation and seniority, and is the only fake Dan Zhenren in the clan.

The other is Xia Yongzhong, the president of the Wufu Chamber of Commerce, who mainly handles external affairs of the chamber of commerce and business.

The latter is Xia Mingqu's father and holds real power in the Wufu Chamber of Commerce.

"Master Wu Dan, please come in."

Xia Yongzhong is a tall and thin middle-aged man with a white complexion and a turban on his head. He personally came out of the cave to greet him.

As the nominal helmsman of the Wufu Chamber of Commerce, he gave Lu Changan enough face.

"President Xia is too polite."

Lu Changan knew that Xia Yongzhong formally invited him, and there must be something important to discuss.

Inside the cave, there were spiritual fruits and fine wines, delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and charming female cultivators singing and dancing.

At the banquet, Xia Yongzhong first talked about some family matters and showed concern for Lu Changan's situation on Qiufeng Island.

It was not until the singing and dancing ended that Xia Yongzhong got to the point while enjoying the wine:

"In recent years, Daoyou Wu has been in contact with Shenglan a lot. Do you know that she has broken off the engagement with the Xin clan?"

"Broken engagement? I just learned about this."

Lu Changan was stunned for a moment and responded.

Before that, he had always kept a distance from Xia Shenglan because of this concern.

"Daoyou Wu should know that Shenglan has a good impression of you. If you two are in love, I can help you become a Taoist couple."

"I have no intention of marrying a wife, and I am not worthy of Miss Shenglan."

Lu Changan shook his head.

Because of the life-saving grace in the past, Xia Shenglan did have a little affection for him, but there was no real admiration.

This is fundamentally different from the eldest lady of the Mu family back then.

Lu Changan could feel it in the previous conversation.

Besides, Lu Changan had no special feelings for this woman.

The female cultivator who could impress Lu Changan had to have at least one of outstanding appearance or temperament, and also have a similar personality.

Xia Shenglan did not meet any of these requirements.

Most importantly, Lu Changan never talked about feelings with female cultivators who were going to take on relationships.

"Don't rush to refuse, fellow Daoist Wu." Xia Yongzhong smiled lightly, looking quite confident.

"The clan leader is quite sympathetic to Shenglan and owes her for her previous sacrifices. Therefore, Shenglan's dowry includes a late-stage foundation-building elixir."

When Lu Changan went out before, he had expressed his need for a elixir.

President Xia was going to completely bind Lu Changan to the chariot of the Xia clan through marriage and benefits.

Lu Changan's diligent and down-to-earth character, his identity as a second-level alchemist, and his impressive fighting skills satisfied the Xia clan's top management.

"President Xia, actually... Mr. Wu is no longer short of the late foundation-building elixir."

Lu Changan said hesitantly.

"When did you get the elixir?"

Xia Yongzhong's eyes condensed, somewhat unbelievable.

Master Wu was only a second-level low-grade elixir master, and could not refine the late foundation-building elixir.

"Last time I went out, Mr. Wu was lucky enough to trade with a traveling merchant."

To confirm, Lu Changan took out a porcelain bottle.

Xia Yongzhong's spiritual sense swept through it, and the elixir inside was exactly the late foundation-building elixir "Xuanwu Dan".

"Fellow Daoist Wu is lucky, I wish you a breakthrough in your cultivation as soon as possible."

Xia Yongzhong smiled to hide his embarrassment.

In the past, when Master Wu needed the elixir, the Xia clan did not give it to him. Now he is ready to lure him with huge benefits, and the other party is no longer short of it.

...

After this conversation, Xia Shenglan almost never came to see Lu Changan again.

Half a year later, Lu Changan legitimately revealed his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building.

In the entire Wufu Chamber of Commerce, the number of people in the late stage of foundation building is relatively rare and their status is high.

Lu Changan's status and treatment in the Xia family has been greatly improved, catching up with the status of worshiper.

On this day, Lu Changan took a flying boat and left Qingsha Bay, preparing to buy third-level beast pills for the rock rats to promote their cultivation.

In addition, he also wanted to purchase second-level longevity pills and materials for foundation building pills.

Lu Changan has no shortage of the main materials for foundation building pills. In his early years, he got two second-level special demon cores from the spoils of ancient ruins.

As long as he refines the foundation building pill, Lu Changan can be called a senior second-level alchemist.

Flying over a mountain and river, Lu Changan felt a sense of induction.

"Daoyou Lu, you have kept Fang from me so hard."

In the mountains and rivers, a breath of peak late stage foundation building emerged. A purple-faced sturdy man in armor, stepping on the escape light, flew towards Lu Changan with a wry smile.

"What fellow Daoist Lu! Mr. Fang Zhong, you have become so confused since the last disastrous defeat."

Lu Changan raised his eyebrows and ridiculed him unceremoniously.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, the turtle talisman master, don't pretend! The Crescent Moon Chamber of Commerce has already found out your identity."

Fang Zhong was slightly complacent and confident.

"Tsk tsk, when I was in Liang State, I also heard rumors that fellow Daoist Lu was a late bloomer, and we have been friends for a long time. According to our age, I should call you Brother Lu."

This time, the Yang was more serious, with three days of high fever, three days of low fever, dry cough, blade mulberry, cement sealing of the nose (I suspect that I didn't have the first Yang before, and my throat was dry and tired at that time). I couldn't sleep well and couldn't eat. The fever was completely gone yesterday, and I was ready to code with a little energy, but I felt dizzy after typing more than a thousand words. It may be that I had rhinitis, which caused me to have a constant runny nose and severe nasal congestion after erection. A pack of tissues a day was not enough.
