"Ahem! What are you all doing here? You came to the Tibetan Museum to study, not to watch the fun!"
Lu Tongming gave a lecture to wake up the students from the clan middle school who were still in shock after Lu Fanzhi was kicked away.
Under Lu Tongming's extremely oppressive gaze, everyone turned into birds and beasts and scattered.
Lu Fanzhi was also carried away by his younger brothers to the clan clinic.
Only Lu Zhengzhi and Lu Tieshan were left on the field.
"Ahem! You two come with me." Lu Tongming left with his hands behind his back.
Lu Zhengzhi quickly pulled Lu Tieshan to follow.
Although this old man repeatedly tried to stop him from trying to trick Lu Fanzhi, judging from his performance on the court, he was still very much on his side.
Following Lu Tongming into a secret room, after the door slowly closed, Lu Tongming extended his hand to Lu Zhengzhi.
"Bring it here."
Lu Zhengzhi obediently took out the Xuan-level spiritual treasure that Lu Fanzhi promised him - the Eight-Directions Spirit Refining Mirror - from his storage bag, and then respectfully handed it to Lu Tongming.
Seeing this scene, Lu Tieshan couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Brother Zhi, why did you give the spiritual treasure to the elder?"
Lu Tongming glanced at Lu Tieshan with helplessness in his eyes.
Lu Zhengzhi patted Lu Tieshan on the head and said, "What do you know? This is the elder saving our lives."
Lu Tongming nodded, "You are really smart."
Seeing that Lu Tieshan was still confused, Lu Tongming shook his head and said, "Well, I'll explain this matter to you so that you don't get confused."
"Do you know who Lu Fanzhi's grandfather is?"
Lu Tieshan answered honestly, "Lu Chengshan, the chief steward of the clan."
Lu Tongming nodded, "Lu Chengshan is a very narrow-minded person with ruthless means."
"Not only did you two embarrass his grandson today, but you also stole a Xuan-level spiritual treasure from him."
"You know, the entire Lu family only has five Xuan-level spiritual treasures."
"If you don't return this spiritual treasure to him, let alone you being from the same clan, even if you are relatives from the same bloodline, he will kill you to take the treasure."
"Today I will accept this spiritual treasure and return it to him on your behalf. This will not only settle the matter, but also stand up for you two and avoid any subsequent trouble."
Lu Tieshan was confused and it took him a while to react. He clenched his fists in anger.
He wanted to ask why the steward was so stingy and cruel, and he also wanted to say that if you want to kill me, come and kill me, I'm not afraid!
But in the end, he lost his temper and said with his head down, "Thank you, Elder, for protecting our lives."
He was slow to think, but he was not a fool. The end of going against Lu Chengshan would be death, so he had to give in no matter how unwilling he was.
Lu Tongming nodded, "It's good to know the general idea. The most important thing on the path to becoming an immortal is not to be brave and aggressive, but to learn how to protect yourself."
Lu Zhengzhi was also looking at Lu Tieshan earnestly, as if he was Lu Tieshan's elder like Lu Tongming.
"Don't you think this is not spoken to you?" Lu Tongming glanced at Lu Zhengzhi and said suddenly.
Lu Zhengzhi was stunned, "Huh?"
Lu Tongming smiled coldly, "Do you think your approach is smart?"
"Although the news of a stubborn stone gaining enlightenment and learning a high-grade spiritual skill might not be shocking, if someone with ulterior motives heard about it, it would probably cause you some difficult trouble."
Lu Zhengzhi's heart tightened, and he stood up straight, "Thank you for the reminder, Elder."
Lu Tongming looked at him and couldn't help but sigh, "Forty years ago, my Lu family produced three geniuses with six spiritual roots. At that time, the whole family was shocked. They all thought that my Lu family would have a dragon and phoenix soaring into the sky and break through to the Golden Core Family in one fell swoop."
"But what was the result? Of the three geniuses, two died tragically, and one was humiliated for half a month, his heart shattered, and he became a cripple."
"The Lu family's hopes were shattered overnight."
Lu Tongming looked at Lu Zhengzhi and said, "Lu Zhengzhi, I don't know what kind of adventure you had to break through the realm in one day and understand the law at a glance."
"But, even the most powerful genius needs time to grow, you know?"
Lu Tongming stared into Lu Zhengzhi's eyes with a serious expression.
Lu Zhengzhi lowered his eyes. Ever since his system awakened, he had indeed become quite arrogant, even capable of doing something like stepping on Lu Fanzhi's face.
This is the world of cultivating immortals. Even if you have the protection of your family, you are still facing the danger of being eaten without leaving any bones.
There are two other major families in Liuhe County, countless independent cultivators, strange beasts and ferocious plants, and even inexplicable evil disasters may occur.
"Thank you for the reminder, Elder. I am very grateful!" Lu Zhengzhi raised his head and said seriously.
Lu Tongming nodded, "As long as you understand."
"Get out! Adjust your mindset as soon as possible, and don't let the emotions of losing a Xuan-level spiritual treasure affect you for too long."
Lu Zhengzhi paused as he was leaving, then nodded, "It won't be affected."
Of course it won’t be affected, because——
[Ding! Successfully invested in clan member Lu Tongming's Xuan-level mid-grade spiritual treasure, the Eight Directions Spirit Refining Mirror, and received a tenfold rebate—the Earth-level low-grade magical artifact, the Eight Desolate Soul Devouring Cauldron.]
[Magic Instrument Effect: You can drop magical instruments and elixirs with spiritual power into the cauldron, where they will be refined into pure spiritual power and swallowed. The body will automatically absorb it and increase your strength.]
[Disadvantages: Requires strong physical skills to strengthen the spiritual power foundation, otherwise it is easy to become unstable.]
Earth-grade magic weapon!
When Lu Zhengzhi heard this word, his breath almost stopped. Fortunately, Lu Tieshan spoke up and attracted Lu Tongming's attention, otherwise he would have to spend more time and effort to cover it up.
This magic weapon is extremely important to Lu Zhengzhi, who needs time to improve his cultivation.
It saved Lu Zhengzhi the time of hard cultivation!
As long as enough pure spiritual power is swallowed, the body will automatically refine this spiritual power at all times, and Lu Zhengzhi can also study other Taoist methods at the same time, which greatly saves Lu Zhengzhi's time.
