"Conditions? As long as you ask me, I will accept ten of them, not just one."

A sincere and earnest voice echoed in the courtyard.

Mr. Chen is not an ungrateful person. Fu Yunzi has given him a lot on his path to becoming an immortal, not only resources for cultivation, but also the encouragement of a kind-hearted elder.

Like the warm sun, it will shine on you impartially even if you are in the mud.

In the beginning, no one believed that a young man with mediocre talents could achieve anything. It was this person who upheld justice and kindness and allowed him to enter the immortal gate.

There are also many incentives afterwards.

He was grateful in his heart, so as long as Fu Yunzi opened his mouth, even if it was extremely difficult, the first thing he thought of would not be to refuse, but to think about how to deal with it.

"Hahaha, I'm just one..."

Fu Yunzi smiled, then his face turned serious and he said, "You and Lu Zhu should become Taoist companions."

He was very serious, speaking word by word in a clear and organized manner, and it didn't seem like he had made a spur of the moment decision.

"Senior, you are joking."

In an instant, Mr. Chen was stunned.

Fu Yunzi's condition was so unexpected that he wanted him to become a Taoist couple with Lu Zhu.

His head was dizzy and he couldn't say anything for a while.

"I like you very much. As long as you and Luzhu become a Taoist couple, I will send you back from this battle for the true teachings of Tu Feng from the Medicine House Elder."

Fu Yunzi looked directly at Chen Sheng, his eyes revealing his respect for him, and said, "Not only that, a hundred years after I pass away, the inheritance of Baiyu Peak will also belong to you and your wife."

This is a promise. As long as Mr. Chen agrees to it, he will be able to achieve success in one step.

A Taoist companion at the Foundation Establishment stage and the support of a powerful elder from the outer sect, this is undoubtedly pie in the sky for a cultivator at the Qi Refining stage.

Chen Sheng hesitated and said, "Senior, this is... too hasty."

His fate is extremely special and is destined to be different from that of ordinary cultivators.

Birth, old age, sickness and death were avoided from him.

Power and status will also be gone like a passing cloud.

But we have to admit that he had some feelings for Lu Zhu, otherwise he would not have hesitated but would have flatly refused.

Those who live forever are only afraid of emotions.

"Why, you don't want to."

Fu Yunzi was indeed a big shot in the outer sect. Seeing that Chen Sheng was slow to respond, he changed his expression immediately, becoming gloomy and cold.

Is it because his Baiyu Peak’s foundation is not good enough?

Or is there something wrong with Luzhu?

The atmosphere suddenly became sharp and tense. Luzhu, who was standing outside the courtyard gate, felt her heart tighten, fearing that the two important people in her life would soon confront each other.

Also, when she saw that Mr. Chen did not respond, she felt sad.

Is it really not fate?

"In this matter, our say doesn't count. Only Luzhu's say counts."

Mr. Chen hesitated.

"If she didn't want to, I wouldn't have spoken."

Fu Yunzi was furious. He was not an unreliable person. He must have asked about his disciple's thoughts before making this decision.

Since the man is in love and the woman is willing, he doesn't know why Chen is hesitating.

"I see."

Chen Sheng murmured to himself, and finally figured out why Luzhu said those words on the road. He was afraid that she had prepared for the worst.

Even so, she didn't want him to have any psychological burden, so she just told him to follow his heart.

Just as I was thinking about it, another long passage of words sounded in the courtyard.

"Luzhu has done a lot for you over the years."

"Not long after she established her foundation, she went deep into the Locking Heaven Valley to fetch the Turtle Snake Soil for your path. You know this, but what you don't know is that she risked her life on this trip and almost couldn't come back."

"Speaking of age, she is also at the age of marriage. There are several marriages that I think are good, but she rejected them all. She just stayed with you and became the master's wife of your apprentice."

"Do you know how many cold words she gets for calling you Master's Wife? She has no reputation and status, and is a joke."

"Besides these, she has been very considerate of you and taken care of your daily life."

Fu Yunzi became angrier and more excited as he spoke. His many years of energy-cultivation skills had already been ruined by more than half. He felt that this young man, who looked quite good before, was becoming more and more ungrateful and a complete bastard the more he looked at him.

“I remember all of this.”

Chen Sheng's mood, which was already rippling, exploded and shattered after hearing Fu Yunzi's words.

He remembered everything Luzhu did for him.

In addition to what Fu Yunzi said, there was also the anger when they first met because of the misunderstanding, and the sweet smile after the misunderstanding was resolved.

On the night of the outer sect competition, the opponent's information was thoughtfully prepared for him.

After Deacon Zhou left, she was out and only learned the news when he returned. The first thing she thought about was how to comfort him.

With so many things happening one after another and decades of companionship, our friendship has become profound.

"Since you admit it, then is Luzhu worthy of you?"

Fu Yunzi breathed a sigh of relief. Young people are always hesitant, just like his apprentice. If the two of them don't push him, who knows how long it will drag on.

"Yes."

Mr. Chen closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were as clear as water.

After all, he couldn't sever the ties of love, so what was there to hesitate about?

The two words were spoken as gently as the wind, but they made Luzhu outside feel the joy of having found something she had lost.

This guy was obviously willing in his heart, but he delayed for a while, which made her nervous. He was really an enemy.

"You agree?"

A look of joy appeared on Fu Yunzi's face. He was really satisfied with Chen Sheng. Otherwise, if it were someone else, he would have been kicked out of the door just now for his shyness.

"I agree."

Having made the decision, Mr. Chen had no intention of changing it.

Besides, he didn't dislike Lu Zhu in the first place, and after accompanying her for so many years, there should be a result.

"Silly child, why don't you come out?"

Hearing this, Fu Yunzi's expression became gentle and kind again.

He shouted towards the outside of the courtyard gate, the matter was done, and it was time for the real owner to come in.

"Master... Junior Brother..."

Luzhu was outside, hesitating for a while before she calmed down a little. She came in front of Chen Sheng with a red face and her head slightly lowered. It was obvious that she was very shy.

"good."

Mr. Chen smiled and touched her head gently.

"Tu Feng's hand has stretched too far. Just wait patiently for your turn to take the position of the Medicine House Elder."

If the job is done, then Mr. Chen will be half a member of Baiyu Peak.

When it comes to Elder Yaolu's matter, Fu Yunzi will naturally not stand idly by. He will call on new and old friends to fight back against Tu Feng.

"Senior, no need."

At this time, Mr. Chen shook his head and didn't want Fu Yunzi to interfere.

"Um?"

Fu Yunzi was very confused.

"I don't want this marriage to be mixed with anything else."

Mr. Chen explained the reason.

Without Luzhu's involvement, he could accept Fuyunzi's care because it was the help from an elder to a younger person.

On the contrary, he didn't want others to have any rumors that he, Chen Sheng, married Lu Zhu for his future.

Be it aloofness or pretentiousness, he just wants to be purer.

"Who cares what others say? You are enough for me."

So, she sincerely persuaded Mr. Chen to accept the teacher's help.

"You have to think about it carefully."

Fu Yunzi also asked Chen Sheng to think about it. Tu Feng’s aggressive approach might be a situation where a strong dragon is suppressing a local snake.

"This matter is settled."

Mr. Chen flatly refused.

"good."

Luzhu has already got what she wanted most, and she obeys Chen Sheng in all matters.

Seeing that he insisted, I gave in.

"well……"

Looking at the two of them, husband and wife following each other's lead, Fu Yunzi didn't want to say anything.

At least, there is Bai Yufeng as a backup. With him around, there won't be any major disturbances in the outer sect.

…

"Mr. Chen from Yaolu and Luzhu from Baiyu Peak have become Taoist companions."

The parties involved, one was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the other was in the Qi Refining Stage. In the Guangxiu Immortal Sect, these people are not everywhere, but there are a lot of them, so it naturally did not cause any big waves.

However, some people in Tu Feng's lineage were immediately furious.

"Relying on a woman to get to the top? Shameful!"

In the bright lights, a handsome young man, with a red face, was extremely angry and could no longer hold back.

He is Xing Ming, the one who competed with Chen Sheng for the position of Elder Yaolu's disciple Tu Feng.

There was fierce competition between the two.

He is a dragon that passes through, and has many resources and connections in the inner sect. But Mr. Chen is not bad either, and he has a great reputation in the medicine house.

The situation was originally at a stalemate, and the outcome could only be decided by the level of alchemy skills.

However, at the critical moment, the mortal enemy became involved with the outer sect elder Fu Yunzi.

He absolutely didn't believe that this was not premeditated.

Fu Yunzi is not just a simple outer sect elder. He can be ranked among the top three in the entire outer sect.

He is highly respected and has extensive network of contacts.

There are many people in the inner and outer gates who were promoted by him when he was young. With just a call from him, Tu Feng’s plan this time will fail.

"What's the hurry?"

A steady voice sounded outside the door.

He was a middle-aged man, with a sturdy build, wearing a black robe, with big dark eyes, and a serious expression. He looked very majestic.

"teacher."

Hearing this, Xing Ming opened the door and saw Elder Tu Feng, who was also his teacher. He couldn't help but get anxious and said, "What should I do?"

His opponent, who had been pulled up to Baiyu Peak, was truly beyond his ability to resist, so he could only ask for help.

"As usual."

Elder Tu Feng said calmly.

"If I wait any longer, I'll be out."

Xing Ming's mood was already unstable, and he became even more anxious and angry after hearing this.

The opponent has brought in strong reinforcements and is very powerful. The only way for him to compete is to follow suit and increase the investment.

"Fuyunzi is very good at judging people. Chen Sheng refused to help for the sake of his Taoist partner's reputation."

Elder Tu Feng's eyes flickered. He was also shocked when he first heard the news, but then Chen Sheng refused Fu Yunzi's help, which made him calm down instantly.

"Refused? He's... so stupid."

Xing Ming was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Chen Sheng to make such a decision.

It seems that he misunderstood Mr. Chen. This guy didn't have such deep intentions as to rely on women to get to the top. He was just a fool who couldn't even seize a good opportunity.

"This person's state of mind is extremely extraordinary. You have to be careful."

Elder Tu Feng, however, has a different view. Chen Sheng is a man who can keep his original heart when faced with things that are within his reach. He can naturally keep his mind steady when refining the elixir and seek victory in a stable manner.

Moreover, being aloof is very popular among alchemists.

With this one move alone, the leader's demeanor and prestige were established.

"He can't compare to me in the art of alchemy."

Xing Ming nodded slightly, showing that he had listened a little, but he was still full of confidence.

The alchemy inheritance he received was extremely profound and mysterious, suspected to be left by the Golden Elixir True Man. It was really easy for him to deal with an alchemist in Yaolu.

"Practice well and calm your mind. The alchemy competition will be the day after tomorrow."

Elder Tu Feng recognized Xing Ming's alchemy skills. His only worry was that Xing Ming's state of mind was not stable enough, which would lead to failure on the spiritual level.

"good."

It was not known whether Xingming had heard it or not, but he agreed readily and looked extremely happy.

But he was happy too early.

You can avoid the first day, but you can’t avoid the second day.

The next day was the night before the alchemy competition.

The team from the Law Enforcement Hall surrounded Xingming's palace. They were all wearing armor and carrying swords, with murderous eyes and a dangerous aura around them.

"Xingming, you are suspected of colluding with the demon cultivators to kill your fellow disciples. Come with us."

The leader, Hua Yuncang, had white hair draped over his shoulders and a face that showed the vicissitudes of life, but one could tell that he had been very proud of himself in recent years, and there was a sense of high spirits between his brows.

He kicked open the palace door and walked straight in, staring at Xing Ming with a full sense of oppression.

"What! This is impossible."

Xing Ming suddenly realized that it was the Law Enforcement Hall that came to his door.

The rumors about that place are very bad, dark and murderous. It is said that the practitioners caught there will be skinned alive if they don't die.

He was also involved in a murder case involving collusion between internal and external forces.

This frightened Xing Ming so much that he denied it repeatedly.

The fact is, he hasn't been out for half a year and really has no time to commit a crime.

"Cooperate with the investigation. If you are not a suspect, we will let you go."

Hua Yuncang's face was cold and hard, and nothing could be seen. He looked very businesslike.

"If I go with you, I'll be late for the alchemy competition tomorrow."

Xing Ming explained it in a hurry.

Tomorrow's alchemy competition is very important to him. As long as he wins, he can use it as a platform to grab a huge amount of cultivation resources and it will be almost certain that he will step into the Foundation Establishment Realm. Even if he wins, he will have a slight chance to reach the Golden Core Realm.

"So you want to resist? Are you afraid that what you did will be exposed?"

Hua Yuncang sneered. The Law Enforcement Hall was not a place for negotiation. Once the decree was issued, both the inner and outer gates had to surrender.

"No...how could it be such a coincidence..."

Suddenly, Xing Ming's eyes widened and he screamed, "Is it that Mr. Chen who framed me, or are you and him in cahoots?"

He realized something. This matter was very strange. It was as if someone had deliberately let him in and made him miss the time.

"Take him away."

Hua Yuncang had a calm expression. He waved his hand and the law enforcement team pressed forward. The armor collided, making a crackling sound, and the swords were cold and could hurt people's hearts.

Xing Ming knew that he couldn't take action. Once he did, no matter whether he was right or wrong, he would be imprisoned in the Law Enforcement Hall.

However, he would never surrender.

"Teacher, help me."

In the dark night, a sad and angry voice echoed throughout Tufeng.
