Chapter 631: The Lord of Mount Lu Arrives and Cuts Off Worldly Ties

On this day, a cloud of clear clouds flew slowly from far to near in the Fulong Mountains.

On the clouds, two beautiful figures stand tall and tall.

The breeze blows, and the hair is flying.

The person standing in front looked calm, seeming to be enjoying the breeze blowing in the mountains.

But the woman behind her couldn't help stroking her hair, her face seemed calm, but her eyes were constantly moving.

"Axiu, your heart is restless." A soft voice came from the mouth of the female crown in front of her.

Wenxiu couldn't help but feel bitter after hearing this.

Who can truly feel at ease when being close to home?

"Master, why do you need to be so decisive?"

Mr. Lushan said calmly: "Now that you have joined my sect, you should cut off all the worldly ties and be indifferent to fame and fortune. Your talent is endowed with golden elixirs. Especially after you modify my skills, you should have made rapid progress, but you have stopped building in these years." It's hard to make any progress at the base level. You were hiding it well before, so I just thought you were temporarily trapped. It wasn't until your daughter came to find you that I understood the reason."

Wenxiu lowered her eyebrows and murmured: "But blood relationships are not so easy to cut off. Xiaoqing is my ten-month pregnancy and the child I spent my energy and blood to give birth to. I can't do it... Master, Didn’t you do it back then?”

Mr. Lushan frowned.

It is true that she did not cut off the so-called earthly ties back then, but waited for her close relatives to pass away, and with the power of time, she gradually forgot about those ties.

It was really embarrassing to be pointed out by the disciple at this moment.

But Lord Lushan was not angry.

She sighed quietly, "It is precisely because of the experience that I know what a miraculous effect it will have on practicing the "Book of Forgetfulness" by taking that step in advance."

Wenxiu was at a loss.

Mr. Lushan explained a little, "Unlike ordinary immortal cultivators who focus on resources, my Taoist cultivation method focuses on cultivating the mind. The cultivation speed may be a little slow at first, but as long as the state of mind improves, you will catch up. According to the introduction in "The Book of Forgetfulness" , the true wonder of this set of exercises can only be truly revealed after the Nascent Soul stage.”

Is it really?

Wenxiu was worried. It seems that secular Taoist sects can't help but have weddings and funerals?

Could it be that their lineage is particularly different?

Glancing at the young woman with messy hair, Mr. Lushan shook his head.

"On this trip, in addition to allowing you to take the initiative to establish ties with the Zhang family, my teacher is also going to visit friends. When the time comes, you will first go to Pengdao with me, and then return to Cailian Island."

"Um."

During the conversation, Qingyun had already crossed the thousand mountains and finally landed on the shore of the vast misty lake.

As soon as the clouds landed, monks from Fengbo Pavilion by the lake took the initiative to come forward to greet them.

Lord Lushan's spiritual pressure radiated outwards, immediately revealing the realm of the golden elixir stage, so the monk guarding the pavilion behaved respectfully.

"Senior, would you like to visit the Lord of Penghu or the Zhang Family of Lotus Pickers...Mrs. Wen?"

As the old monk spoke, his eyes subconsciously fell on Wen Xiu behind him, and he couldn't help but blurt out.

Mr. Lushan waved his sleeves and said, "Axiu, you handle it!"

"Um."

Wenxiu stepped forward to negotiate with the old monk he knew.

She has lived in Penghu for a long time and knows all the rules here.

Especially after it was revealed that Lord Lushan was personally invited by Qingyangzi, the Lord of Penghu, the monk Fengbo Pavilion opened the door for convenience.

After Lord Lushan took Wenxiu by boat towards Pengdao, the old monk guarding the pavilion in the Fengbo Pavilion, after a moment of uncertainty on his face, finally headed towards Cailian Island.

On the boat.

Lord Lushan's spiritual consciousness naturally took in all the circumstances behind him, and his spiritual consciousness transmitted the sound to Wenxiu's ears.

"You see, that's how things are in the world."

"When you were in charge of the Zhang family on Cailian Island for Zhang Jiadi, you were gentle and kind to others. Even if you left later, you never treated them badly."

"But now that you have suddenly returned, those who have received your favor, after much hesitation, still chose to tip off the people on Cailian Island."

"There's nothing better than having tea to cool off when you're away."

"Family love may be deeper, but it cannot withstand the test. Cutting it off early is the right path."

The woman behind her had pained eyes and bit her lip, seemingly unwilling to accept the truth.

In other words, she has already understood these truths.

However, in the past, I just thought about giving in. When the concession failed, I thought about escaping until I became a disciple of the Lord of Lushan in the name of admiring the great road.

But in the final analysis, we are still escaping!

Lord Lushan understood her thoughts and chose to bring her back to let her face all this.

If the other person still can't let go, then she doesn't mind coming as a couple and leaving alone.

At some point, a gentle laughter came from Wenxiu's ears.

"Fellow Taoist, please!"

"Qingyangzi is so polite, why bother to meet a poor man from afar?"

"Haha, it's just a few more steps. Why come here to welcome me? Come here, please. I heard that Taoists like to visit the scenery. There is also a mountain in Penghu. There is a lake viewing pavilion on the mountain, where you can overlook the lake and mountains. , let’s go there and talk about things while enjoying the scenery.”

"The poor Taoist can just do as he pleases, Axiu, just wait here for a while!"

Wenxiu nodded, and after the two of them left, she stood alone by Pengdao, her eyes looking in one direction, her expression changing constantly.

…

About half a day later, Luo Chen and Lushan Jun returned hand in hand.

Both of them had smiles on their faces, and they thought things went smoothly.

After Lord Lushan landed next to Wenxiu, she smiled slightly at Luo Chen and said, "You will decide the specific departure time. I will rush to make the necessary talismans and seals. I will not delay your important event."

Luo Chen smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, it will take a while, and I will also invite another fellow Taoist to come with me."

Lord Lushan was a little surprised. Besides Sang Jiugong, there was actually one more person needed?

From this point of view, Qingyangzi is really determined to win the Purple Spirit Island!

But then she thought about it, it would be better if there were more people, it would be safer if we did encounter trouble.

After all, it is the depths of the demon sea where the demon clan is entrenched.

"In that case, that poor Taoist won't bother you anymore." Lord Lushan bowed and prepared to leave with Wenxiu.

Luo Chen said, "Do you need Luo to be a middleman?"

Mr. Lushan hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed.

The Zhang family on Cailian Island is nothing to fear, they are just a foundation-building family.

But behind it is the Nascent Soul power Coral Sea Zhou Family.

She, a middle-stage golden elixir monk, couldn't suppress her, even though she didn't intend to use force.

But Luo Chen was different. He was a guest of the Zhou family and the head of the Zhang family. If he came forward, everyone would sell three-cent thin noodles.

Next, it depends on Wenxiu’s thoughts.

"Axiu, have you decided?"

…

Cailian Island.

Luo Chen's eyes fell on this spiritually rich island, and he couldn't help but raise his brows.

He remembered very clearly that at the beginning, this small island only had a second-order low-grade spiritual vein, but now using the spiritual eye technique, it had enough second-order mid-grade spiritual energy, and even vaguely reached the upper-grade spiritual energy intensity.

But unfortunately, this extra spiritual energy is not completely captured from the main vein of Penghu.

Luo Chen's eyes drifted away and fell on the increasingly sparse lotus leaves and lotus flowers, as well as the jade and jade mountains scattered all over the bottom of the lake. Luo Chen was thoughtful.

"I used to hear from Tianxuan that the Zhang family has become more and more prosperous since Zhou Shanshan married in. At that time, I just thought it was a change in wealth and status."

"Now it seems that it is different in every aspect."

Wenxiu's heart became more and more tense.

The lotus leaves that once connected to the sky were infinitely green, but now they are the ruins of the lotus roots and the desolate lotus leaves.

Really things are different and people are different!

For a moment, my tense mood became inexplicably more intense.

People have changed, things have also changed, why should I still worry about it?

Perhaps because they knew about Wenxiu's return in advance, and because Luo Chen and Lushan Jun's escape was not concealed at all, when they arrived, a group of people had already gathered in advance at the Family Jade Plaza in the center of Cailian Island.

As Luo Chen descended, the monks of the Zhang family, led by Zhang Jiadi and Zhou Shanshan, all bowed their heads in worship.

"See Master Qingyang!"

Hundreds of monks gathered together, and the sound they made was like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

Luo Chen was used to big scenes and didn't care about it.

He waved his hand and said, "Today is your family matter. I am here to be the middleman. Just solve it in a harmonious way."

After saying that, he walked straight towards the main courtyard of the Zhang family, looking carefree and not treating himself as an outsider.

And behind him.

Zhang Jiadi looked at Wenxiu who was looking intently with tender eyes.

Zhou Shanshan pursed her lips and stared at Wen Xiu, as if someone was snatching food.

Wenxiu, who had gradually figured it out, felt surprisingly calm at this time, and followed Master Lushanjun into the courtyard.

Zhang Jiadi dismissed the family monks with a wave of his hand, and only followed in with Zhou Shanshan.

…

Luo Chen watched the whole process of this so-called Zhang family affair, and it was really fun to watch.

It's nothing more than Wenxiu trying to make peace with Zhang Jiadi and taking away her portion of the property.

Zhang Jiadi naturally didn't want to.

And this reluctance is not about property, but about emotions.

He even said such bitter words as "abandoning husband and daughter" and "what a cruel heart".

The more she watched him perform, the more disgusted Wenxiu became. How could she have fallen in love with such a person back then?

Therefore, the heart of peace and separation becomes stronger and stronger.

Zhang Jiadi tried hard to persuade him to no avail, but finally agreed to sign the letter of separation under the witness of two Jindan masters.

Zhou Shanshan is a little reluctant. The property Wenxiu wants to divide is not a small amount. Even if it is not a big deal for the current Zhang family, it is "her money"!

But with Master Qingyang in front of her, she didn't dare to act recklessly.

Regardless of how she usually faces other Jindan cultivators, even Fairy Tianxuan, she can be neither humble nor overbearing.

But Master Qingyang is different. This is an existence that her ancestors of the Zhou family on her mother's side appreciate very much. The last time they had their 800th birthday, someone even sent an invitation letter to Master Qingyang.

After the Lishu was signed and the converted spirit stones were delivered to Wenxiu's hands.

From then on, she had nothing to do with the Zhang family on Cailian Island!

At this time, the night was deep and the exposure was even deeper.

The Lord of Lushan refused Zhang Jiadi's offer to stay and took Wenxiu back home.

However, when they walked out of the small courtyard, several people stopped in their tracks.

Under the moonlight, the girl Pingting was about to cry.

"Mom, don't you want me anymore?"

…

"Is this the practice method of your Taoist monks?"

"No, other orthodox Taoist practitioners don't have so many scruples. It's just that Pindao's lineage is special."

"Isn't it a little too focused on form?"

"The realm of Wenxiu has not yet reached, so it is impossible for her to be informal, formal or deliberate. At least it will cut off her way back."

"Haha, your master is doing your best."

"It made fellow Taoists laugh."

Under the moonlight, on a white cloud, a man and a woman stood side by side, chatting casually.

Their eyes fell on the mother and daughter clinging to each other outside Cailian Island.

Lord Lushan suddenly said: "Actually, all of us in our generation have reached the same destination through different paths. Those who aspire to the great road are doomed to be lonely! Qingyangzi, if thousands of years later, how many people will be able to follow you?"

Luo Chen's smile gradually faded.

Qi refining cultivators have a lifespan of one hundred, while those who live longer only live a hundred and twenty-five.

Even those who are proficient in health-preserving techniques will not be able to break through the 300-year limit if they are a true cultivator of foundation building.

For golden elixir cultivators like them, it is normal for them to sit down for four to five hundred years.

For ordinary people, this is an extremely long life.

But for those who aspire to the great road, they still feel that there is not enough time.

In this climb to the top, there are always people who will continue to fall behind.

Even if someone can keep up with him at a certain stage, if you look at it for a long time, you will end up alone in the end.

If you want to sleep in the past all day long and miss your old friends, it will affect your own practice, and eventually you will become one of the laggards.

Only by getting used to loneliness can you move forward!

What Lushan Lord is doing now is just to help his disciple Wenxiu one step ahead.

What about yourself?

Luo Chen pursed his lips and looked confused.

At some point, Lord Lushan had taken Wenxiu away.

Zhang Jingqing, who had become a grown-up girl, stood beside Cai Lian Island in a daze. When the moon was at its peak, she threw herself into the lake and dived into the depths like a fish.

…

"Tianxuan, do you know how old you are?"

In the Alchemy Palace, while Luo Chen was waiting for the elixir's properties to settle, he asked this question.

Tianxuan, who controlled the fire for Luo Chen with a snow blower, was a little surprised.

Then came the answer.

"He should be over three hundred years old!"

Luo Chen was startled for a moment, "So young?"

Tianxuan smiled slightly, "You are not young anymore. Although it is said that monsters are born to live long, it also depends on which monster clan they are. Our Douou clan is born to be ferocious and aggressive, so we can be considered a short-lived species among the monster clan. As far as I know , a third-level fighting gull can live up to 1,800 years old.”

"This is also very long, comparable to the real Yuanying of our human race." Luo Chen shook his head, and then asked about his family and friends.

In this regard, Tianxuan was at a loss what to do.

The Douou clan is too aggressive, which makes it difficult for them to live in groups. As long as they have second-level strength, they will live in isolation and live alone.

For her, family and friends really have no feeling.

The end.

Tianxuan sighed with emotion: "If I hadn't met my master, I would have either died at the hands of other monsters, or I would have practiced to the fourth level in ignorance."

Luo Chen couldn't help but ask: "Have you never considered the meaning of life?"

"significance?"

Tianxuan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Isn't the meaning of living just to live?"

Luo Chen was stunned.

Just at this moment, there was a strange sound coming from the Hunyuan Cauldron.

Luo Chen exerted his magic power, and suddenly a stream of light flew out like a galaxy.

The improved fourth-level poison-control elixir was finally successful!

Holding the elixir in hand, Luo Chen slowly raised the corners of his mouth as he recalled Tianxuan's words.

The meaning of living is to live.

In other words, isn’t the purpose of spiritual practice just to live forever?

What are you doing to bother yourself?

Isn't that what his original ambition was!

As for the so-called worldly fate and the so-called loneliness?

If it doesn't affect your own practice, why bother.

Leave everything to time!

But now, let’s take every step in a down-to-earth manner!

Holding the Poison Control Pill in his hand, Luo Chen asked:

"Where is Duan Li now?"

Tianxuan stood up and said, "It's time to end the mission and return to the Demon Hunting Department."

Monster hunting department?

Luo Chen nodded, waved his sleeves, and walked out.

"He owes me a favor, let's pay it back this time!"
