Chapter 454 Chu Ning: The atmosphere has become like this, should I die?

Dan domain.

Lu River.

It originates from Lushan and is tens of thousands of miles long.

In the wide river, a light boat was going upstream. There was no one rowing the boat, and the boat was moving very steadily, neither fast nor slow.

Occasionally, when encountering waters with a large number of boats, other boats would give way.

There are many ordinary people living on both sides of the Lu River.

Ordinary people in the Dan Realm know the existence of cultivators. In the mortal kingdom, local gentry and nobles also have close ties with cultivators.

Being able to sail upstream on the Lu River without anyone rowing the boat means there is only one possibility: there is a cultivator sitting in the boat, and he is at least a powerful cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.

These mortal ships could not afford to provoke them, so they had to give way.

"Big Brother, once we pass this bend, we will reach the territory of the Lu family."

"Um."

Inside the cabin, a young man with white hair was leaning on the windowsill. From this angle, he could have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery on the other side.

"Big Brother, do we need to say hello to the Lu family?"

"No need, I have already informed Brother Lu."

The young man standing at the entrance of the cabin knew that the Brother Lu his senior brother was talking about should be the young master of the Lu family.

In the past few decades, the young master of the Lu family has become famous in the alchemy field. It is said that he has broken through to the level of a seventh-grade alchemist.

A seventh-grade alchemist is already one of the best in the entire alchemy field, and the next level is a grandmaster.

Considering the young master of the Lu family’s current age, there will be absolutely no problem for him to become a Grandmaster in the future.

The young master of the Lu family became famous, and the Lu family also rose with it. Unfortunately, because the Lu family was a cultivation family, they did not recruit disciples from outside, so many people who wanted to join the Lu family had no way to do so.

Yu Qing stole a glance at his senior brother. If his senior brother had not encountered that battle and his life had not been burned, he would have been the most dazzling one in Danyu. After all, the senior brother had suppressed the young master of the Lu family at that time.

Walking out of the cabin and returning to the deck, Yu Qing’s thoughts went back to five days ago.

Five days ago, an elder of the sect suddenly summoned him, which made him both excited and frightened. He didn't know what the elder wanted to talk to him about.

In the sect, a late Jindan cultivator like him would generally not be in the eyes of the elders. Only after entering the Yuanying stage could he be remembered by the elders. If he had good talent and good opportunities, he could be accepted as a disciple by an elder, even if it was just a nominal disciple.

For those of them who are in the Jindan stage, what they pursue is to enter the Yuanying stage and then become the disciple of an elder.

He went to the main hall and met the elder. After listening to the tasks assigned by the elder, he felt a little dazed, even incredulous.

The eldest senior brother was going to travel and needed someone to accompany him, and the elder gave him the opportunity to be the companion.

Yu Qing could never have imagined that such a great thing would happen to him.

Although the eldest senior brother did not have much time left, his prestige in Danshan Sect did not diminish much, but instead increased day by day.

If the eldest senior brother needs someone to accompany him when traveling, he just needs to say a word and other senior brothers in the sect will sign up immediately, and it will not be his turn at all.

He asked the elder why he was allowed to accompany him, but unfortunately the elder did not answer him, but just smiled at him meaningfully.

Unable to find the reason, Yu Qing had to ask several of his good senior brothers about the matter. After a whole night of analysis, they finally came to the conclusion that it might be because he had joined the funeral party for his senior brother.

Funeral meeting.

It was founded by the eldest senior brother in Danshan Sect. It was a temporary organization used to hold funerals for senior brothers who died in the sect.

The eldest brother didn't have much time left. Although no one said it out loud, people gradually accepted this fact. At that time, he mentioned that if possible, it would be best to organize the funeral in advance and give the eldest brother a grand funeral.

As a result, this proposal was recognized by many senior brothers, and even elders in the Spirit Transformation Stage participated. Of course, this funeral meeting was kept secret for the time being, and its main purpose was to collect some of the eldest senior brother's past glorious deeds, including his contributions to the sect.

He was the only one in the Jindan realm to join the funeral committee. Perhaps it was the elders of the funeral committee who pushed for him to accompany the eldest senior brother this time.

This time the eldest senior brother goes out to travel, it is very likely that this will be the last journey of his life. By accompanying the eldest senior brother, he can record every detail of the eldest senior brother's journey. When that moment really comes, he can tell it about it so that many fellow brothers can remember him.

As for why no Nascent Soul cultivator was arranged, perhaps the eldest senior brother just wanted to complete this trip to visit friends in a low-key manner.

This is what Yu Qing himself thought.

Chu Ning looked at Yu Qing's back as he walked out of the cabin and curled his lips. It was he who chose Yu Qing.

The reason is simple.

This kid actually proposed in the sect to prepare a funeral team in advance. His own people aren't dead yet. Isn't this cursing himself?

The most important thing is that this proposal was responded to, and several elders who had reached the God Transformation level joined in. Elder Qin became the deputy leader of the funeral team. The leader has not yet been decided, but it is said that it will be the sect leader.

His fellow disciples and the elders all meant well, but the key was that his life was not at the end yet. Moreover, through his inquiries, he discovered that many of the ideas for the funeral were proposed by Yu Qing. If he allowed this kid to continue staying at the funeral, he was afraid that they would really have to hold a ceremony for him. By then, would he be dead or alive?

Everyone was so serious and solemn about it, wouldn't it be a shame if he didn't die? So, he brought Yu Qing out. Without Yu Qing's advice, there wouldn't be any big troubles at the funeral for the time being.

Tang Xiaoniu and Xu Ruobing were not brought along because both girls were in seclusion.

Knowing that their lifespans had not been shortened at all, the two women naturally stopped worrying and focused on their cultivation.

As for Chu Ning himself, he had just entered the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation not long ago, and it was almost impossible for him to make another breakthrough in a short period of time. As for his clone in the Zifu Academy, he was still walking on the Xuanhuang Road.

The Xuanhuang Road has no end.

Since he couldn't achieve anything by staying in seclusion, Chu Ning decided to go out for a walk, visit some friends, and bring some things back from them.

I am a dying man, so I can't be so stingy.

He has no shortage of spirit crystals, but there are some good things that cannot be bought with spirit crystals.

It is a good opportunity to take advantage of this to travel around the beautiful mountains and rivers of the Central Region and practice. It is not just about climbing to the top, but the beautiful scenery along the way is also not to be missed.

…

…

Boom!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Just as the boat was about to pass through the canyon in front of us, there was a sudden vibration sound, and then the river became turbulent and waves emerged.

"Big Brother, there is something going on ahead."

Yu Qing's expression became nervous. Could it be that someone wanted to deal with the eldest senior brother?

"Relax, it's just a fight between monks, it has nothing to do with us."

Yu Qing's expression returned to normal after hearing the voice of the eldest senior brother in the cabin, so the eldest senior brother's spiritual sense had already sensed what had happened in front.

"Big Brother, what should we do next?"

"Just keep moving forward."

Chu Ning's voice was calm, and Yu Qing also reacted. After all, the eldest senior brother was a powerful cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage. Even though he was already in his old age, the fights between ordinary cultivators would not arouse his curiosity.

The ship continued to move forward, but after dozens of miles, it was stopped by someone.

"Traffic ahead is temporarily prohibited!"

Two Jindan cultivators blocked the river. Yu Qing noticed that it was not only his boat that was blocked, but there were also several other boats around, and all the people on the boats were cultivators.

Yu Qing even felt the aura of a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse on one of the ships.

Even the Yuanying realm was stopped, it seems that there is some big shot ahead.

"move on."

In the cabin, Chu Ning's voice was heard again, and Yu Qing nodded. Yes, given the senior brother's status, there were not many people in Danyu who could stop the senior brother.

Seeing Yu Qing's boat continue to move forward, the two Jindan cultivators showed anger on their faces, but when their spiritual sense swept over Yu Qing, the anger on their faces subsided a little.

The other party was a late Jindan cultivator, while the two of them were only in the middle Jindan stage and could not stop him.

"To be honest with you, Senior Lan has challenged Senior Lu Dong to a duel here. If you have nothing else to do, it's best not to go forward, lest you get yourself into trouble."

Yu Qing was stunned. He didn't know who Senior Lan was, but he had heard of the name Lu Dong, a dazzling Nascent Soul genius of the Lu family, currently ranked 37th on the Potential Dragon List.

If it was someone named Lan on the Hidden Dragon Ranking...

Yu Qing thought of Lan Wensu, who was ranked 40th. Only he was qualified to challenge Senior Lu Dong.

But even so, Yu Qing did not stop. The eldest senior brother could naturally hear what the two Jindan cultivators said. The fact that the eldest senior brother did not say anything meant that he had not changed his mind.

In the eyes of the eldest senior brother, Lu Dong and Lan Wensu are probably nothing.

Seeing Yu Qing controlling the boat to continue moving forward, the two Jindan cultivators just watched coldly from the side, while a Yuanying strongman on another boat walked out of the cabin, sneered, and said to the male and female disciples on the deck: "Don't learn from this guy."

"This man thinks he can get away with anything just because he's a disciple of Danshan Sect. Just wait and see. Even if he can keep his life, he will have to suffer. The world of cultivators always relies on one's own strength rather than background."

"Even if you don't have enough strength, you still have to abide by the rules even if you have a background. Fellow Daoist Lan and Fellow Daoist Lu have arranged a battle here. Since this place has been sealed off, how can a small Jindan cultivator like him get close? You should take this kind of behavior that seeks death as a warning."

The reason why the Nascent Soul expert made such remarks was because he, a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, was stopped here, while Yu Qing, a Jindan cultivator, dared to go in, especially in front of the disciples, which made him lose face.

The reason why he was able to recognize Yu Qing as a disciple of Danshan Sect was because the clothes Yu Qing was wearing were the sect uniform of Danshan Sect.

"Master, the Danshan Sect you are talking about is the Danshan Sect where Senior Chu is from, right? It is said that Senior Chu has a very good relationship with the young master of the Lu family." A young disciple asked curiously.

"That was in the past. There aren't so many close friends in the world of cultivators. It's just an alliance of interests between two people of equal status. Now Chu Ning is crippled, and the young master of the Lu family is in his prime. I'm afraid he has long forgotten Chu Ning. Besides, how could the young master of the Lu family care about such a trivial matter?"

The voice of the Nascent Soul cultivator was quite loud, and Yu Qing also heard it. He stole a glance at his eldest senior brother in the cabin, and when he saw that his eldest senior brother was resting with his eyes closed, he withdrew his gaze, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

What this Nascent Soul expert said was not impossible. The eldest senior brother had already sent a message to the young master of the Lu family on the spiritual network. Logically, the young master of the Lu family would have notified him. Knowing that the eldest senior brother was going up by boat, he should not have blocked the Lu River at this time.

It is very likely that the young master of the Lu family did not pass on the news. Why did the young master of the Lu family not pass on the news? Did he not take the fact that the eldest senior brother was coming to visit seriously? (End of this chapter)
