Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

Chapter 25 Friends List (910)

Accept yourself as a disciple?
Facing Lu Zhiyuan's gaze, Fang Xu hesitated.

Judging from the pill yesterday, Lu Zhiyuan’s identity is not as simple as it seems. There must be a powerful and mysterious force behind him.

Furthermore, because of the incident at the Blood Food Shop, the Wu family might have begun to resent him.

Taking Lu Zhiyuan as a teacher is not a bad choice.

Besides, Lu Zhiyuan broke his promise to accept me as his disciple in front of so many important figures in Fenglin Town. If I refused, it would be tantamount to making him lose face.

Having offended two martial artists in Fenglin Town at the same time, he might not be able to stay in Fenglin Town in the future.

"The boy is terrified!"

"Meet the Master."

After figuring everything out, Fang Xu quickly bowed and performed the great salute between master and disciple.

Seeing this, although the people at the table still had some doubts in their hearts, they all stood up and bowed to congratulate Lu Zhiyuan.

"Congratulations, Brother Lu, for having a beloved disciple!"

"Brother Lu, double happiness!"

"congratulations!"

……

Amid the compliments from everyone, Fang Xu sat next to Lu Zhiyuan with full legitimacy.

"Fang Xu, pour some wine for the seniors." After sitting down, Lu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Pour wine?

Looking at the wine jug in front of him, Fang Xu was slightly stunned, and then secretly delighted.

After Zhang Mingliang and his two servants died, there were only three people left in his friend list.

Now, Wang Erhu and the other two have little “life value” left, and they will probably die soon.

The friend list cannot be empty.

Glancing at everyone present, Fang Xu was surprised to find that, excluding himself, there were exactly seven people!

good! good!
Just filled up!

With a smile on his face, Fang Xu quickly stood up and poured wine for everyone present.

But when he was about to pour some for Lu Zhiyuan beside him, Lu Zhiyuan frowned and slowly moved the cup in front of him away: "Master has already given up drinking."

Quit drinking?
Fang Xu was slightly stunned, and the other people at the table looked at Lu Zhiyuan with some confusion.

"Daddy has indeed quit drinking a long time ago. Let Qingluo toast to you all on his behalf today." Behind Lu Zhiyuan, Lu Qingluo took the lead, ready to take the cup and drink with everyone on behalf of Lu Zhiyuan.

"Nonsense!" Lu Zhiyuan glared at him: "Why would a girl drink alcohol?"

After stopping Lu Qingluo, Lu Zhiyuan looked at Fang Xu and said, "How about you toast to everyone on behalf of your master?"

Fang Xu hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly: "Yes, Master."

Filling the wine glass in front of him, Fang Xu slowly raised his glass and said, "Dear seniors, I would like to toast to you on behalf of Master Lu. Thank you for your support."

"My dear nephew, you are too polite. We will need your care in the future."

"Yes, Brother Lu has taken over this blood food business. When he becomes rich in the future, he must take care of us."

Several people raised their glasses to flatter him. Fang Xu saw that the atmosphere was set, so he looked at Lu Zhiyuan immediately. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he smiled and said:

"I dare to say a few words for my master."

"We are all from the same village. After drinking this glass of wine, we are all friends. We should take care of each other in the future."

His words made everyone present very happy, and they immediately agreed: "My dear nephew, what you said makes sense. We are all friends, let's do it!"

After drinking the wine in the glass, a virtual light screen popped up in front of Fang Xu.

Friends List (9/10)

Friend 68: Qi San from Huangzhou Prefecture, Qinghe County, Fenglin Town (%)
Friend 71: Guo Shun from Huangzhou Prefecture, Qinghe County, Fenglin Town (%)
Friend 69: Hu Lin from Huangzhou Prefecture, Qinghe County, Fenglin Town (%)
……

The names of six people appeared in his friend list.

Fang Xu was overjoyed when he saw this, and was about to have another drink with them, but he suddenly discovered that the "health points" behind the names of the nine people in his friend list had all dropped by 3%!
This……

After a moment of hesitation, Fang Xu glanced at the few people. "Nephew?"

Someone noticed that Fang Xu looked strange and shouted.

Fang Xu came back to his senses and said apologetically, "Please forgive me, seniors. My parents died when I was young, and I depended on my grandfather for everything. Since my grandfather passed away, I have been alone. Fortunately, Master Lu did not abandon me and accepted me as his disciple, which made me feel at home again. That's why I feel very emotional..."

After hearing what he said, several people burst into laughter.

"Brother Lu, it is rare for my nephew to be so genuine!"

The others also nodded in agreement.

Amidst such laughter and joy, the banquet lasted for two hours before it was over.

After seeing off all the guests, Lu Zhiyuan called Fang Xu to a private room. The master and the apprentice sat opposite each other. Lu Zhiyuan looked at him and smiled faintly, "Do you have many questions in your mind?"

Fang Xu nodded.

Lu Zhiyuan took a sip of tea and said, "Before that, I want to apologize to you first."

"I didn't discuss the matter of accepting you as a disciple with you in advance. Now that I mentioned it in front of everyone, it seems a bit like coercion."

"Of course, I also want to thank you for saving my face in front of everyone."

Lu Zhiyuan stood up and bowed sincerely.

Fang Xu quickly stood up and supported him: "Master Lu, what are you doing? You are embarrassing me!"

Lu Zhiyuan held his hand and said with relief: "I have some selfish motives in accepting you as my disciple, but I have no intention of harming you."

"Now, ask the questions in your mind."

Fang Xu was silent for a moment, sorted out his thoughts and said, "Master Lu, what exactly is that pill?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhiyuan sighed with a complicated look on his face, "That is one of the inheritances in my master's family, called Divine Servant."

"I see that the divine servant has recognized you as his master. You should have also witnessed the magical power of the divine servant."

"The divine servants have many wonderful uses. You can slowly discover them yourself. It will be of great benefit to your future practice." Lu Zhiyuan said earnestly.

Fang Xu nodded.

"Master Lu, you're behind..." The fact that he could possess the elixir of Divine Servant was enough to prove that the power behind Lu Zhiyuan was very powerful. Fang Xu wanted to know who he was serving now.

After hearing this question, Lu Zhiyuan remained silent for a long time.

"If Master has something to hide..."

"It's nothing that I can't tell you, but telling you now will only add to your troubles." Lu Zhiyuan thought for a moment and said, "Fang Xu, you just need to know that the only selfish reason for me to accept you as my disciple is that I will be able to protect Qingluo when you become strong in the future."

Protect...her?

Looking at the red figure standing in the courtyard, Fang Xu took a deep breath and said, "Master Lu, don't worry. I will do my best to protect Senior Sister Qingluo."

Seeing that he agreed, Lu Zhiyuan nodded with relief, and then smiled faintly and said: "Master can see that you have a secret crush on Qingluo. Master has no objection to this matter."

"Uh!" Fang Xu scratched his head awkwardly after his secret thoughts were suddenly revealed: "Master Lu, I..."

Lu Zhiyuan waved his hand: "Don't be so reserved. Qingluo is very ambitious. If you can win her heart, I will be happy to see it happen."

"Okay, go back and practice well."

"This is a world where strength is respected. Only by becoming stronger can you protect everything you want to protect." Lu Zhiyuan murmured.

These words seemed to be spoken to Fang Xu, but also seemed to be spoken to himself.

Seeing this, Fang Xu didn't ask any more questions. He stood up, saluted Lu Zhiyuan, and turned to leave.

After Fang Xu left, Lu Qingluo walked into the room.

"Dad, why did you lie to them today and say that you had given up drinking, and why did you stop your daughter from drinking with those people?"

Lu Zhiyuan looked at his daughter with a serious expression and said, "Daddy told me a fortune last night, so I shouldn't drink alcohol today."

Lu Qingluo looked stunned, as if he couldn't believe this explanation.

"Qingluo, practice hard. Bai Ze's soul also has the effect of seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster. We can't lose sight of the root and pursue the end."

Lu Qingluo curled her lips and nodded: "My daughter knows."
