Chapter 399: Traveling Far Away

"How many original crystal cores do you have left?" Yang Chudie suddenly asked.

Lu Yu opened the Qiankun bag and counted them, and replied: "There are nine left."

"Then keep them for now, and don't activate the formation for the time being." Yang Chudie said.

Lu Yu was stunned: "Are you not going to continue practicing?"

Although he has already improved a level, such an efficient way of practicing is really a rare and wonderful experience. He is immersed in it and doesn't want to stop.

Yang Chudie rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Didn't you say that this is all your wife's money? I have to leave you some money to protect your capital, right?"

After a pause, he said seriously, "When you and I have cultivated to this level, we are both about to break through the realm. It is not appropriate to pursue speed blindly. We need to take steady steps and constantly hone the Taoism in actual combat to make it a thorough understanding. This is the right way."

"Next, I may leave Yudie Peak for a while, follow Yudie's practice in the past, travel around, comprehend the rules of Taoism to conclude the natal golden elixir, only in this way can the golden elixir be stable and as perfect as heaven and earth, laying a solid foundation for the next great realm..."

"Although you can't conclude the golden elixir for the time being, the same is true for the return of the true essence to the sea!"

Lu Yu was startled and asked subconsciously, "How long will you be away?"

Yang Chudie replied, "It's hard to say, as short as a year and a half, as long as three to five years... In short, everything depends on the opportunity."

Lu Yu fell silent immediately.

Although the two did not meet every day before, and they had been apart for a long time, the psychological feeling of that separation was completely different from the current travel. No matter how the previous separation was, both sides knew each other's whereabouts and understood what the other was doing.

But the current travel was vague and had no fixed place to stay. It was completely unknown where she would go next and what kind of things she would encounter... Naturally, she would inevitably have some concerns in her heart, and even be in a state of panic all day long...

Both sides were silent.

Lu Yu thought for a long time and finally made up his mind.

"Then I will also go out to travel with Master Aunt!"

Yang Chudie looked at him deeply: "Have you thought it through? If you go with me, there will be no one in charge of Yudie Peak. What should you do with this big business you have laid out?"

Lu Yu thought about it and said: "I have thought it through. Sooner or later, you and I will have to get rid of these businesses. Senior Brother Qi and the others also need enough experience to have the ability to stand on their own... Although letting go like this may cause some chaos in the short term, as long as we are fully prepared, there will be no major chaos."

Yang Chudie's eyes lit up: "It seems that you already have your own ideas..."

Lu Yu nodded: "It takes time to prepare for all kinds of emergencies..."

Yang Chudie said: "Then you can start preparing. I didn't say that we should go out to travel right now."

Lu Yu said happily: "So, Master has agreed to take me with you?"

Yang Chudie glanced at him: "I didn't think I could get rid of you... Otherwise, why do you think I asked you to leave nine original crystal cores? It's time to change your equipment. I don't want to go out with a burden... I'll give you two months to make all the preparations, and then we'll set off!"

Lu Yu was immediately excited: "Yes! Disciple will obey Master's order!"

So the two of them came out of retreat.

The strange phenomena of heaven and earth surrounding Yudie Peak also subsided.

Although the strange phenomena subsided, seeing that the cultivation of the two people had improved at the same time in just over ten days, the disciples of Yudie Peak were very excited and felt that joining Yudie Peak was the most correct decision they had ever made.

Since he knew that he was about to go on a long journey, Lu Yu devoted all his attention to handling internal affairs, trying to arrange everything in an orderly manner before leaving, so that Qi Yunkai, Baozi and others could be fine as long as they implemented it step by step.

The first point, of course, was to deal with the debt problem.

So Lu Yu made elixirs publicly for the next ten days and cashed in bonds.

But unexpectedly, those who held bonds were unwilling to cash them in again, because people were optimistic about Lu Yu's future potential, and correspondingly, the black market was also very optimistic about the value of these bonds. They found that it was more cost-effective to let the bonds circulate on the black market than to directly exchange them for elixirs.

So, in the end, it was these creditors who held bonds who took the initiative to come to the door, crying and begging Lu Yu not to cash them in.

This scene made Lu Yu a little confused, and even made the disciples of Yudie Peak so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.

A few months ago, it was the same group of people who came to Lu Yu aggressively to demand that he pay off his debts. Now, they are hoping that Lu Yu can owe them more and owe them for a longer time... What is going on? Is this world too wonderful, or are people too crazy...

However, this also inspired Lu Yu.

He immediately wrote himself five IOUs for refining top-level elixirs, and left his soul mark on them to make them impossible to forge... He planned to give these IOUs to Qi Yunkai when he left, and if he encountered a tight capital chain at Yudie Peak, he would throw these IOUs into the black market.

Life was busy and fulfilling. Just as Lu Yu was making various preparations for the upcoming journey, he suddenly received a message from the Bixiao Palace.

This message was naturally sent by Ling Yufei. In addition to greetings and describing the recent situation, there was no special content. Only at the very end, it was vaguely mentioned that there was nothing unusual.

Lu Yu immediately understood in his heart that it seemed that she had already met the Heavenly Palace Saint Meng Ting. This abrupt sentence naturally referred to Meng Ting's reaction when she saw the Feihong Sword.

Although he had already prepared himself in his heart, Lu Yu's mood was still depressed when he heard the news.

It seems that it is unlikely to find out the whereabouts of his mother through the Heavenly Palace Saint Meng Ting...

All hope, after all, must be placed in the Nine Netherworld...

Lu Yu calmed down, picked up the pen, and began to prepare a reply.

He once again solemnly asked Ling Yufei to go to the Youming Palace for him. Of course, he did not ask her to find out the whereabouts of her mother directly, but to collect intelligence information about the Youming Palace in the Nine Netherworld...
