"I won't help mortal officials do things that exceed the standards of cultivators. I've been insisting on this for more than ten years!
However, it's a fact that Lord Qin and I are old friends. I can guarantee that I will restrict Lord Qin's actions in Lou Province, regardless of whether he's willing or not!
I hope that Lou Province won't pursue this matter any further!
If I can't do it, I'll personally take care of this matter! "
Lou Xiaoyi was very satisfied. This was also an important reason why he came into contact with the cultivators in Pu City. He wanted to let them know that Lou Province had strong cultivators watching over them. His principle in life was that it was better to show off one's strength than to keep a low profile. This could prevent accidental injuries and make people wary of him. After all, humans were a race that revered great power far more than anything else.
They raised their cups and drank to show their respect. They had reached a consensus on this matter. It seemed a little ridiculous that two cultivators were so casual about the matters of a prefecture. In fact, it was in line with the nature of the cultivation world. This was something that mortal countries had always avoided. Unfortunately, their efforts could only maintain the appearance of not interfering with each other's business. They couldn't change the nature of their positions!
"Fellow Daoists, it's a pity! I was too far away at that time and couldn't react at all. Please forgive me for not standing up in time! " After they finished talking, both sides had a foundation to continue. Cultivators couldn't do anything without cultivation.
Hu Yong sighed and said, "This has nothing to do with you, Young Master. Even if I was close, I wouldn't have been able to react in time, let alone you.
Rogue cultivators like us are always wandering between greed and cowardice. If we make the right choice, we'll make a small fortune. If we make the wrong choice, we'll lose our lives …
I'm incompetent and avoided danger. I hope Young Master won't laugh at me! "
Lou Xiaoyi expressed his understanding. "It's normal! Even if I were face to face with him, I would still choose to leave! Cultivators need to be aware of gains and losses, not hot-bloodedness!
However, from the monk's methods, he doesn't seem like a pure rogue cultivator. His methods are strict and he knows when to advance and retreat. In fact, his methods aren't at the level of an ordinary rogue cultivator. Could he be …? "
Hu Yong's expression was grave. "That's what I wanted to talk to Young Master about! Old Hu rummaged through his storage ring and found that most of the items inside were items from sects. Whether it was talismans or other items, they were not things that ordinary rogue cultivators could possess. Therefore, I believed that this monk was most likely a disciple of a sect with an inheritance. But why did he come to the Jokhang Temple alone?
If there is a day when other sects come to take the lead, I hope that everyone can help each other and overcome the difficulties together!
However, the possibility of this was not high. After all, the Qi Eater stage was the lowest level of cultivation. In the eyes of the true inheritors, it was simply not enough to enter the door of cultivation. Therefore, there won't be any revenge from a powerful sect. At most, it will be a few old friends. We can deal with them. "
The two of them got along quite well. Lou Xiaoyi was willing to associate with such an understanding person. They wouldn't become good friends, but if he knew his limits and knew when to advance and when to retreat, there was a possibility of cooperation.
Most importantly, if he left Pu City for a period of time one day, at least Lou Province would be safe.
Hu Yong's role as a fortune teller had come to an end. He was very satisfied with this encounter. The people of Lou Province were not unreasonable.
Lou Xiaoyi resumed his normal pace of cultivation and began to concentrate on breaking through to a higher level of cultivation.
In the cultivation world, the weak had no right to speak. Even if he couldn't sense the Foundation Establishment stage for the rest of his life, he should still be a predator among the Qi Eater stage cultivators. He shouldn't be an ant who went to every market and acted like a thief.
He also finally understood that in the mortal world, you could muddle along and pass your days in mediocrity, but you could also live out the rest of your life peacefully. In the cultivation circle, there was a force that constantly pushed you forward. Stopping meant that danger would come knocking on your door.
There was no true leisure to speak of!
He began to slowly increase the frequency and intensity of absorbing the red thread worm's spiritual power!
Every night, after cultivating in the evening, a figure would run tirelessly through the Gobi Desert. Previously, he could only travel less than a hundred miles, but now, he could travel more than a hundred miles.
Lou Xiaoyi built all his cultivation techniques on the foundation of basic cultivation techniques and escape techniques.
He had his own ideals. Magic cultivators were the most famous stationary turrets in the cultivation world. They didn't need to move much because they could control the changes in the surrounding environment. In this space, they were nature and the environment. If they moved too much, it would affect their ability to adapt to the environment they were familiar with.
Lou Xiaoyi liked to run. He liked the feeling of running as fast as lightning. He felt that he could only unleash his strength to the fullest with this kind of speed.
It was also pretty good to become a mobile turret.
The Qi Eater stage was a stage for all cultivators to build their foundation. Even the sects didn't allow cultivators of this level to go out and wander as they pleased. This was because they had too few methods to deal with danger. If they were obsessed with these methods, it would delay their most fundamental cultivation.
Therefore, the best way was to focus on quickly passing through this stage!
If you didn't pass, there would be no value in continuing to nurture you. If you passed, a new world would open up for you. Then, it would be the time to determine your direction. Whether it was the direction of cultivation techniques, the direction of cultivation techniques, or the direction of spells, it would mean that you had truly become a cultivator and no longer a mortal!
After Lou Xiaoyi's first busy year in the past, he finally returned to peace and quiet.
He didn't need to take the imperial examinations, so he didn't have a group of bookbags who groaned all day long.
He didn't need to earn money to support his family, so he didn't have many business partners who were as hardworking as bees in the business world.
He wasn't an official, so he didn't have any social interactions that he had to attend.
Even interest circles like the Seven Heroes fell apart and went back to their own paths.
There were still all kinds of small circles of young people in Pu City, but they all unsurprisingly ignored a person like the Young Master of Lou Province, whether intentionally or unintentionally. The labels engraved on him included the fact that he was temperamental because of the brick, the fact that he often went to the Gobi Desert, and a very small number of people who were in the know told their disciples to keep a certain distance from him out of respect for cultivation.
After coming to Pu City for a year, he successfully made himself into a lonely soul drifting in the universe.
Cultivation was destined to be a kind of loneliness.
Lou Xiaoyi was very satisfied with his current state. He didn't think that he was lonely because he still had family!
His only worry was how long he could maintain this beautiful state of mind. If he sensed that he was about to build his foundation, would all of this change? If his family left, he would become truly lonely. Would he lose his balance because of this?
Three years passed quietly just like that. He was still a young man with a sunny face. Because of his success in cultivation, not many traces of age could be seen on him. However, he was no longer nineteen years old, but a young man of twenty-two years old.
At this age, even if he was from a poor family, he would have already married and had children. Only his mother and Aunt Cai would occasionally look at him with complicated gazes that made him feel ashamed. This was the only place where he didn't follow his mother's instructions.
Even Second Sister Li was married. Although she hinted countless times that he could still go and find her, Lou Xiaoyi knew that this story was coming to an end.
Everyone had their own life, and this was especially true for women. He had no reason to ask Li Erniang to accompany him in this ambiguous way forever. People would grow old. It was fine for men, but for women, it would be difficult for them to find a decent family even if they were from a wealthy family.
Men's greatest hobby was to drag women down with them and persuade prostitutes to turn over a new leaf. He didn't want to be like them.
