Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 85 Goodbye Qi Yuan
As soon as Su Shu and Xu Hao left, only Lu Qingshan and Lin Yao, who seemed a little uneasy because of Xu Hao's words, were left in the room.
The atmosphere was a little weird for a moment.
You are still too young and not mentally strong enough.
Lu Qingshan shook his head silently and commented in his heart.
As the owner of the phantom divine vein, Lu Qingshan's expectation for Lin Yao is actor-like acting skills and the psychological quality of being able to remain calm even when faced with a catastrophe .
Lin Yao has neither of these two now.
…
"I was distracted just now...so I didn't notice the situation and barged in." There was a bit of panic in Lin Yao's explanation.
"What happened?" Lu Qingshan asked, staring at Lin Yao's face.
Seeing Lin Yao looking worried, anyone would know that something must have happened.
But, it’s not okay to show your feelings so obviously on your face.
Lu Qingshan thought to himself.
Judging from his expectations for Lin Yao, Lin Yao is still too immature now.
Lin Yao bit her lower lip lightly with her pearly teeth. "My father sent me a message telling me that the trouble at home has been resolved. He said that the Jindan cultivator Qing Ling Zhenren from the Lu family in Zhenjiang City came to 'visit' the Xing family yesterday, and then Zhenren Xing Yu took back the engagement letter."
Taking back the engagement letter means that the Xing family has given up the plan to annex the Lin family.
Moreover, once the news that the Lin family has the support of the Lu family spreads out, the Lin family will be able to remain unscathed even if the reshuffle of forces in Yuanshan City is chaotic.
It is even possible for the Lin family to gain some benefits by borrowing the Lu family's cover.
The Lu family is the Lu family, and Lu Qingshan’s surname is Lu, so there is no need to explain the relationship between the two.
Lin Yao just didn't expect that Lu Qingshan's status in the Lu family would be so high?
There is no need to even explain the situation in person, and you can ask the Jindan cultivators in the family to take action.
And the Lu family's response was so quick. She arrived in Zhenjiang City the day before yesterday to seek help from Lu Qingshan.
Just one day later, the Lin family's crisis was easily resolved.
Lu Qingshan was certain.
The Lu family's actions were quite efficient.
Lin Yao's eyes flickered, and after a long time, they finally condensed, and she bowed gently to Lu Qingshan, saying softly: "Mr. Lu's help this time, my Lin family will remember it in our hearts. If you don't despise my low level of cultivation, I am willing to serve you to repay you for saving me twice."
Some things don't need to be made too clear.
There is no free lunch in the world. Lu Qingshan is not a saint. It is impossible for him to waste his personal connections for Lin Yao.
Since Lin Yao asked Lu Qingshan for help, she would naturally have to pay a price.
With Lu Qingshan's wealth, what else could the small Lin family have that would make Lu Qingshan interested, besides Lin Yao, who possesses the Phantom Body Divine Vein?
Not to mention that Lu Qingshan had already revealed his desire to win Lin Yao over to work for him early in the morning.
Lin Yao also understood this truth, so she had prepared herself mentally from the beginning.
Looking at the blessed Lin Yao, Lu Qingshan nodded and chuckled, “In my eyes, even if he is a Jindan cultivator, his value is far less than yours.”
Lin Yao pursed her lips, not knowing how to respond to Lu Qingshan's affirmation.
Lu Qingshan tapped the table with his knuckles, thought for a moment, and said, "Come with me to meet someone tomorrow."
Lin Yao nodded in response, without asking who he was going to meet.
Since you have surrendered to Lu Qingshan, you must adjust your attitude and just leave it to Lu Qingshan's arrangements.
After arranging the tasks that needed to be done, Lin Yao withdrew.
Lu Qingshan did not stay in the room for long. He flashed to the backyard and took out the jade slip given by Xu Hao from the storage ring.
"Skill [Invisible Sword Escape] detected. Do you want to spend 500 experience points to learn it?"
"study!"
"Experience value -300, currently learning [Invisible Sword Escape]... learning progress 15%... 50%... 99%..."
In an instant, he mastered the invisible sword escape.
Lu Qingshan's mind moved, and the Soul-Crying Sword came out of the storage ring, and he shook his fingers.
call out!
The flying sword shot out with a flash of light.
What was surprising was that at the moment the flying sword was shot out, Lu Qingshan, who was standing in the yard, disappeared instantly and without a trace.
A moment later, Lu Qingshan's figure appeared in the air where the flying sword had reached.
This is the effect of the invisible sword escape, invisible and swift!
Twenty feet?
Lu Qingshan murmured.
After a little testing, he got the accurate information.
The level 1 invisible sword escape allows him to move a distance of twenty feet along with the flying sword.
A distance that is not long, but definitely not short either.
Although he wanted to improve the level of his flying sword technique and invisible sword escape, after looking at the remaining 2,500 experience points in the experience bar, he temporarily held back the idea.
Compared with the skill level, he currently needs to improve his cultivation.
There is no other reason. As his skills increase, his spiritual power is no longer enough, and he needs to upgrade his level to increase his spiritual power.
With each level up in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the upper limit of spiritual power can be increased by 100 points, which is almost equal to the total spiritual power provided by the entire Qi Refining Stage.
This is also the power of [Guixu Sutra] as a Taoist-level practice.
You know, if it is an ordinary skill, raising the foundation-building stage by one level will only increase the upper limit of spiritual power by 50 points.
Of course, the price is that the experience points required for Lu Qingshan to upgrade each level will double. Just to upgrade the [Guixu Sutra] from lv1 to lv2, he needs a full 4,000 experience points.
…
This is a tall building facing west and east, with a simple and unique structure. The base is , and the entire building is a pure wooden structure. The entire building does not use a single nail or rivet, and is only connected by wooden components.
The eaves are very long and are supported by square wooden blocks.
This kind of square wood block is called Dougong. It has a complex structure and exquisite craftsmanship, which is almost beyond human power.
Lu Qingshan looked at the plaque hanging high on the roof.
"Zhenjiang Guard", four large gold-plated characters written in a flamboyant style are engraved on it.
This is the Tianji Tower, unique to Tianji Temple. It is a unique building that combines formations and spiritual inspiration. It is also Qi Yuan's Taoist temple in Zhenjiang City.
Whether it is for cultivation or divination, Tianji Tower has a very obvious benefit effect.
Lin Yao, who was standing half a body behind Lu Qingshan, looked at the Tianji Tower in front of her, her red lips slightly parted, and her heart was shocked.
Lu Qingshan said that he wanted to take her to meet someone, and she didn't think much about it and followed Lu Qingshan.
Who could have thought that after many twists and turns, Lu Qingshan would finally bring himself here.
The Zhenjiang Guards are among the top people in the entire Zhenjiang City, both in terms of status and cultivation!
She originally thought that Lu Qingshan’s Lu family background was his most prominent feature, but now it seems that this is just the tip of the iceberg?
"But Lu Qingshan?" A young monk in a green Taoist robe walked out of the building.
Lu Qingshan nodded: "It's me."
The young monk glanced at Lin Yao, feeling a little surprised.
Judging from Lin Yao 's position, it was obvious that Lin Yao should be Lu Qingshan's maid or something like that.
The maid's appearance alone was already the most stunning beauty he had ever seen in his life.
With such subordinates, Lu Qingshan's background was unconsciously elevated in his mind.
Although his heart was in turmoil, the young monk did not stop working: "Come with me, the master is waiting inside."
Lu Qingshan did not doubt him and called Lin Yao, "Come on, follow me in to meet Guard Qi."
Lin Yao quickly followed.
Passing through the open space surrounded by corridors, the young monk led Lu Qingshan and Lin Yao to the west hall.
In the hall, a middle-aged male cultivator with a unique temperament was sitting in meditation.
It was Qi Yuan, the person who held the mirror in Tianji Temple.
"Are you here?" Qi Yuan's mellow voice sounded.
The young monk bowed respectfully to Qi Yuan and then left silently.
Lu Qingshan looked at Qi Yuan who was sitting on the main seat in the hall and did not speak for a long time.
The last time we met, Qi Yuan was just a worried man, but now he has a head full of gray hair!
A thick, lingering atmosphere of dusk enveloped Qi Yuan.
