"I'll have someone bring you bedding and daily necessities later. I'll also show you around the Lu family's kitchen, toilet, bathroom, and everything else. Also, I'll be paid with spirit stones for my daily work."
Gu Juan's eyes were red, and she wiped away the tears of sadness. "As long as I have food and shelter, I don't need any compensation."
"Of course you need money." After saying that, he took out more than a hundred low-grade spirit stones from the storage ring and handed them to Gu Juan.
Gu Juan hurriedly refused, and finally, Lu Jingzhi put the spirit stone on the table.
"Auntie, sister, if you have anything, you can come to my place to find me."
Gu Keke watched Lu Jingzhi leave and hurriedly followed him, grabbing the corner of his clothes, "Brother, where are you going?"
Lu Jingzhi pinched her face and smiled, "Brother, go back and have a rest. I'll come to you tomorrow to check your spiritual veins and take you shopping at the same time, how about that?"
Gu Keke looked excited and hugged Lu Jingzhi reluctantly.
After explaining everything, he returned to his room, lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Suddenly, there was a bang in his body, and he completed the breakthrough to the ninth level of the Xuanti Realm in his sleep. Everything happened so naturally.
At this time, Lu Jingzhi was lying on the beach eating hot pot, hugging a bikini beauty, with a look of comfort and satisfaction on his face. Suddenly, a crab pinched his ear hard.
Lu Jingzhi felt pain and opened his eyes suddenly. What he saw was Yan An with an expressionless face twisting his ear.
"Master...Master."
"It's time to practice."
Lu Jingzhi yawned, slowly put on his shoes and walked to the bamboo forest behind the mountain.
"Master, what are we practicing?"
Yan An floated out of his body, and a soul pressure suddenly pressed down on him.
He staggered and collapsed on the ground, feeling as if his entire soul was being crushed, with pain several times more severe than that of his body.
"master..."
Seeing that he could still speak, Yan An increased the soul pressure little by little.
"Hold on."
As the pressure intensified, he felt as if his soul was about to leave his body. He grabbed his thighs with both hands, his nails digging into his flesh without him noticing.
At this time, blood came out of the nose. Seeing this, Yan An suspended the soul pressure.
Lu Jingzhi felt something soft stuffed in his mouth, and then his whole body felt lighter and his head felt dizzy.
In his hazy consciousness, he felt himself thrown into a warm embrace, with that faint and familiar fragrance...
He didn't know how long he slept. When he woke up again, he found himself lying on the bed. There was no pain in his head, and his soul power seemed to be stronger.
Am I dreaming?
He slowly stood up and saw blood on his thigh.
[I'm not dreaming! Then how did I get back? ]
【Could it be that the master carried me back? 】
Thinking of this, Lu Jingzhi's face showed a slightly excited smile, and then a frustrated expression, "Oh, if I had known earlier, I should have held on a little longer so that I could feel the Master's sweet embrace."
"Master, was it you who brought me back?"
Yan An's cold voice echoed in his mind, "No, I brought it back."
Lu Jingzhi's expression darkened. It turned out that he was just being too sentimental.
Knock knock...
"Son, are you up yet?"
"Rise up."
Lu Jing got out of bed and opened the door, and saw his mother holding Gu Keke's hand and standing in front of his door.
"This little girl was looking for you, but she didn't know where you were, and then she got lost."
"elder brother."
Lu Jingzhi rubbed her head and said, "Sorry, brother slept late."
"I don't blame you."
Seeing how close the two were, as if they were really siblings, Mu Jin leaned over and asked, "What's your name? I forgot it yesterday."
"My name is Gu Keke."
"Okay, I'll take you to dinner."
Seeing that his mother liked the little girl very much, Lu Jingzhi curled his lips unconsciously, and then followed them to the living room to eat.
"Son, take her to buy some clothes later."
Hearing this, Gu Keke looked at her patched clothes and blushed, "I'll just ask my mother to buy them."
Seeing how well-behaved and sensible she was, Mu Jin liked her even more. "It's okay, just a few clothes."
After dinner, Lu Jingzhi took her to the Panping Town market. When passing by the Lu family blacksmith shop, he saw Ye Wu inside wiping his sweat with a towel and sitting on a chair to rest.
"Fatty Ye."
Ye Wu turned around and saw Lu Jingzhi walking towards him with a smile on his face.
"Why are you here, Boss? Do you want to go for a drink later? It's my treat."
"Okay, but I have to take my sister to check her spiritual veins first. We can go in the evening."
"good."
"Master Ye, I knocked the sword crooked. What should I do?"
Ye Wu looked at one of his apprentices with a look of disappointment, "Put it in the iron furnace to heat it up first, and I'll teach you later. If you can't learn it, you can expect to be scolded."
Lu Jingzhi couldn't help laughing, then took out the broken silver halberd with two ears.
"Fatty Ye, can you help me repair this weapon?"
Ye Wu took it and examined it carefully. "This is a second-level mid-grade weapon. The quality is not bad." He then looked at the broken part. "It can be repaired, but it will take some effort."
"Then I'll trouble you."
“This is what I should do.”
"Well, I'll take my leave now. I'll see you in the evening."
Lu Jingzhi bid farewell to Ye Wu, holding Gu Keke's hand, walked through the streets and alleys, and finally came to the Spirit Vein Awakening Tower.
In the Zi Tian Empire, every town has a Spirit Vein Awakening Tower. If a genius is found, the empire will extend an olive branch to him. This is also an important reason why the empire can gain a foothold in the mortal realm.
