Gou Zaixiu Immortal World Gets A Wife

Chapter 92: Going Out for a Trip (Seeking Subscriptions)

Cao Feng served dishes and poured wine. In the end, he dismissed the butlers and servants and replaced them with a group of graceful women dressed in thin veils, intending to have them serve Li Guanxuan drinks.

Li Guanxuan was shocked and asked, "Brother Cao, what is the meaning of this?"

"Huh?" Cao Feng was taken aback. "Brother-in-law doesn't like it? Is it because Qi Refining female cultivators are not to your taste?"

Then, Cao Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Although Foundation Building female cultivators are a bit difficult to handle, there is still a way... Chen Bo!"

Chen Bo was the title for the butler.

"Master," Chen Bo quickly walked over upon hearing the call.

"Go..." Cao Feng hadn't finished speaking when Li Guanxuan quickly interrupted, "Brother Cao, you misunderstood. That's not what I meant... I prefer vegetarian dishes and don't like meat."

Li Guanxuan was truly speechless. Cao Feng, the lord of Silver Maple City, was truly enthusiastic.

"Vegetarian dishes?" Cao Feng squinted his eyes and chuckled softly. "Brother-in-law, don't worry. Today's matter, you know, I know, and Zheng the shopkeeper knows... Occasionally having some meat is fine."

"Yes, yes..." Zheng Huangjin, who was being served by several Qi Refining female cultivators, was already swaying and had a drunken smile on his face, finally understanding.

This guy, usually so serious, unexpectedly had a hidden side... Li Guanxuan couldn't help but complain in his heart, smiling bitterly as he said, "Brother Cao, I hope you understand."

Upon hearing this, Cao Feng suddenly realized, "So that's how it is... I understand now. Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Li Guanxuan could only raise his cup and drink, smiling without saying a word.

"Let me tell you, that City Lord Shanggu won't amount to much. Now everyone is eyeing his fat meat, choosing which piece is the fattest. When the time comes, they will take a bite. He no longer has the intention to come find you."

Cao Feng chuckled, "This old guy has it coming. When I wanted to cooperate with him in the past, he directly shut me out and even sent me some monster beast bones to humiliate me. Damn!"

Saying that, Cao Feng raised his cup and finished it in one gulp. Seeing Li Guanxuan also raising his cup, he burst into laughter and continued, "You can rest assured. I already have a rough idea of his trade routes. Once I take down Shanggu City, it won't be long before Daheng, Daxuan, and Dazhou come knocking on my door!"

By then, those trade routes that I don't know about will naturally surface. Hahaha..."

Li Guanxuan raised another cup and sincerely reminded, "It's better to be cautious. We can do without the trade routes. That thing has attracted too many people's attention. It's like a hot potato. Let others fight over it."

Cao Feng can obtain spiritual veins. As long as he gets the spiritual veins, Silver Maple City can expand and develop. After all, we are only about two thousand miles away from Shanggu City, not too far.

Once Cao Feng forms a Gold Core, the three major immortal sects will open up a trade route for him, instead of him personally going to seek it."

After hearing Li Guanxuan's words, Cao Feng pondered for a moment and then nodded solemnly, "So... are you confident that you can refine a high-quality Gold Core Pill? Besides, as a demonic cultivator, I also need Earth Vein Thunder Crystals, Earth Core Marrow, and Heaven Blue Resurrection Grass..."

Of course, these precious materials are relatively easy to obtain. We can buy them with money or borrow one or two from City Lord Shanggu. He should have plenty and wouldn't be so stingy."

"..." Li Guanxuan's opinion of Cao Feng had changed. He didn't expect this person to be so humorous and witty.

But it was normal. Both were at the peak of Foundation Building, and Cao Feng had another seventy to eighty years of life, obviously much younger than City Lord Shanggu. It wouldn't be a problem to beat up an old man in his seventies or eighties.

Although it was somewhat unprincipled, in the face of condensing a Gold Core... principles were no longer important.

Moreover, Cao Feng was a demonic cultivator. Demonic cultivators should do what demonic cultivators do.

"At the latest in fifty years, I will definitely refine a high-quality Gold Core Pill," Li Guanxuan said, patting his chest.

He also needed this promise to maintain his relationship with Cao Feng. After all, he would still be living in Silver Maple City in the future, and it would be much more convenient to have a relationship with Cao Feng for any future matters.

In addition, cultivating immortality emphasizes the "wealth and companionship on the path." Besides cultivating partners, there are also friends on the path of cultivation.

Some friends must rely on their own abilities to maintain the relationship, rather than relying on personal connections.

This kind of friendship based on personal connections would not last long and would not share too many sincere matters with you.

Therefore, relationships like this had to be maintained by one's own abilities.

One's own is the true one.

Cao Feng stared at Li Guanxuan seriously and said in a deep voice, "Brother-in-law Guanxuan, this is not something that can be casually promised. I know you're worried about encountering trouble in the future, but let me be honest with you...

My relationship with Wuji is deep. Without him, I might have died long ago. So, since you are his brother-in-law, you are also my brother-in-law. I cannot stand by and watch you die.

But if you promise to refine a high-quality Gold Yuan Pill for me, then I will take it seriously. If you can't refine it in the future..."

Cao Feng didn't continue with his words.

"As you wish," Li Guanxuan replied, his expression sincere.

"Good!" Cao Feng said decisively. "I am an honest person, and you are an honest person too. I believe what you say. As long as you can refine a high-quality Gold Yuan Pill for me, your matters will be my matters! Zheng Shopkeeper can be a witness... Zheng Shopkeeper?"

"Alright, alright, alright... So bright." Zheng Huangjin chuckled.

He had already fallen into the trap of addressing Li Guanxuan as "Immortal Lord" and was completely oblivious to everything else.

"..." Li Guanxuan and Cao Feng exchanged glances and burst into laughter.

...

As Cao Feng said, the Lord of Shanggu City only had seven years of life left and had no time to spare for Li Guanxuan.

The current Lord of Shanggu City was fully devoted to forming his Gold Core.

If he couldn't form a high-quality Gold Yuan Pill with a thirty percent chance, he could still obtain a normal Gold Yuan Pill with his wealth and connections.

Therefore, the Lord of Shanggu City planned to go into seclusion today to condense his Gold Core.

Even if he couldn't condense a Gold Core, a genuine pill or a fake pill would do, as long as it could prolong his life.

The Lord of Shanggu City no longer dared to ask for too much. As long as he could survive, anything would do.

Therefore, when news of the Lord of Shanggu City's seclusion spread, many forces began to stir.

This included Cao Feng.

But after listening to Li Guanxuan's advice, he understood what he truly needed.

Spirit veins!

Only spirit veins were the most precious and stable thing for stepping into the Gold Core stage.

Other things could be fought over by others first.

...

While the outside world was in turmoil, Li Guanxuan was enjoying his family life in the inner city's Peaceful Garden.

Day after day, year after year...

Two years later.

After finishing a day of serious dual cultivation, Li Guanxuan entered the cultivation room to meditate and refine.

At present, his alchemy, talisman, and sword techniques were all at the middle-grade of the second rank.

His formation technique had reached the upper-grade of the first rank.

His wood spirit root talent was progressing slowly and was still at the middle-grade.

His Foundation Building divine sense had reached a range of eighty zhang, and he could even use his clone to control puppets for long-distance travel. He could even burn any traces left behind, without worrying about being traced back and attacked.

"There is still some distance to the second level of Foundation Building, estimated to be within one or two years..." Li Guanxuan stretched lazily. Although he hadn't broken through to the second level of Foundation Building, he was already very satisfied with his progress.

A year ago, Song Zhiqiao had already broken through to the fifth level of Qi Refining, providing him with a lot more wood-based immortal energy.

So, as long as Song Zhiqiao's cultivation caught up, his cultivation speed would be even faster in the future.

After organizing the pills and talismans he had refined during this period, Li Guanxuan went out to Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.

Since Liu Xiaoxian's team couldn't stay in Shanggu City anymore, they had opened a second Myriad Manifestations Pavilion in Silver Maple City.

Zheng Huangjin's semicolon is in Sanhao Fang Market.

Cao Feng, on the other hand, opened up a relatively large space in Yihao Fang Market for the sake of Li Guanxuan's face, allowing Liu Xiaoxian to open his own Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.

Although Liu Xiaoxian had heard about the relationship between his beloved disciple and the Lord of Silver Maple City, he was still somewhat shocked to see it with his own eyes.

However, considering the promise made by his beloved disciple to the Lord of Silver Maple City, Liu Xiaoxian felt that it was quite normal.

The high-quality Golden Yuan Pill is not something that can be easily obtained. Li Guanxuan has confidence that he can refine it within fifty years, which is already worth Cao Feng's investment.

After all, Li Guanxuan has achieved results in the quality of Foundation Building Pills, Poison Purification Pills, and Life-saving Pills.

Li Guanxuan first came to Myriad Manifestations Pavilion in Yihao Fang Market. The manager, Dong Si, originally wanted to personally receive him, but when he saw Li Guanxuan's gesture, he smiled and nodded, busy with his own affairs.

"Master, I'm coming in."

Li Guanxuan took a shortcut to the top floor, knocked on the door, waited for a moment without a response, and then pushed the door open.

The familiar fragrance of spiritual incense greeted him. Li Guanxuan was already accustomed to this calming fragrance. He saw his well-endowed master lying motionless on the grandmaster chair, but his flat abdomen and the peaks that gathered slightly showed slight movements. Li Guanxuan understood that his master's spiritual consciousness had been greatly depleted, and he could only relieve it through deep sleep.

Li Guanxuan sat quietly on the side, waiting, while secretly admiring his master's mature figure, which was as tempting as a peach.

With golden waves of hair and a face that needed no makeup, his master was like a painting. His slightly raised vermilion lips seemed to invite a kiss.

Under his slender jade neck, the white jade presented a stunning curve, followed by a graceful and charming waist. His hip bones were slightly larger than Qin Jiyue's, presenting a pear-shaped figure.

His crystal-clear legs emerged from the loose Daoist robe, round and symmetrical, without a trace of excess fat.

Sensing that Liu Xiaoxian was about to wake up, Li Guanxuan quickly dispelled all his random thoughts in his mind to avoid being caught off guard.

By then, his beloved disciple might become a sinful disciple.

"Why so serious?"

Liu Xiaoxian's lazy and charming voice slowly sounded, and his seductive golden eyes could still see through people's hearts. At a glance, he could see Li Guanxuan's uneasiness.

"Master, your immortal might is immense, and your disciple is frightened. I can't help but feel a little nervous," Li Guanxuan explained with a smile.

"Is that so? It doesn't seem like it to me."

Liu Xiaoxian muttered, then changed the topic and said, "Recently, Chen Yinshan went to the Yu Beast You Family and killed the newly appointed elder."

Li Guanxuan's eyelids twitched, but he didn't speak, quietly waiting for the continuation.

Liu Xiaoxian continued, "He originally wanted to kill the head of the You Family because the head of the You Family is You Shaoneng's biological father. In addition, the head of the You Family has always wanted to avenge the deceased ancestor and You Shaoneng, and even launched a bounty..."

Chen Yinshan probably heard about this and then went to Huajing Immortal City.

But don't worry, I happened to save his life on the way and wanted to get more information from him, but he only said one sentence: I'm fine, don't worry... and then he left."

Upon hearing this, Li Guanxuan smiled. This was indeed very much like Chen Yinshan.

"I don't have much to do recently, and the second-grade middle-tier puppets have been refined. It's a good time to let the puppets replace me and leave the city for a while."

Li Guanxuan said, "I will go to Huajing Immortal City first to see the situation. We can't always let the Yu Beast You Family find us. Sometimes, we have to take the initiative."

"Just be careful. If you encounter any problems, inform me in time. Don't easily transfer your Primordial Spirit to your clone. It would be troublesome if you were trapped."

Liu Xiaoxian had no objections to this, just a slight reminder.

She had taught Li Guanxuan all her cultivation techniques, including the clone technique.

And her beloved disciple had a high level of comprehension and learned everything in just a few years.

Even in the manufacturing of puppets, Li Guanxuan had been reviewed multiple times to ensure that no traces were left behind. Only then did Liu Xiaoxian nod in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, Master."

After a few more pleasantries, Li Guanxuan left, leaving behind some pills and talismans.

...

A clone, a second-grade flying boat, two second-grade middle-tier puppets, and several talismans...

Li Guanxuan set off in the direction of Huajing Immortal City.

Liu Xiaoxian had told him that cultivators couldn't stay in Spirit City all their lives without going out. Occasionally going on a long journey and gaining more experience would make their state of mind more complete and beneficial for future breakthroughs in cultivation.

Of course, Liu Xiaoxian also knew that Li Guanxuan valued his life very much, so he suggested that he prepare clones and puppets.

It's better to lose these things than to lose one's life.

"This clone technique is really useful..."

Li Guanxuan stood on the deck, feeling the breath of freedom, and couldn't help but smile.

Unless necessary, he would not leave Silver Maple City.

But now, he needed to go to Huajing Immortal City to broaden his horizons. After all, there was a Gold Core cultivator sitting there, and there were many things in the market that Silver Maple City and Shanggu City did not have.

Besides, he also needed to prepare in advance for the materials to break through the stage of Tianyuan Pill and Huangting Pill.

These things were difficult for Liu Xiaoxian and Zheng Huangjin to retrieve. If they wanted to apply to their superiors, there would be a lot of troublesome procedures.

So sometimes, Li Guanxuan had to personally go out to gather materials.

In addition, Chen Yinshan was also near Huajing Immortal City this time, and the Yu Beast Traveling Clan still needed to continue investigating. Li Guanxuan happened to come out to send the clan leader of the Yu family to a reunion.

Anyway, the appearance of his clone had been changed, so there was no need to worry about being recognized.

On the way to Huajing Immortal City, Li Guanxuan encountered an incident where a Foundation Building family was annihilated.

The most powerful person in that cultivation family was only at the third level of Foundation Building. Faced with the siege of three Foundation Building cultivators from another cultivation family, they could only fall in despair.

Regarding this, Li Guanxuan just watched from a distance and then left without getting involved in such matters.

Days passed by.

When Li Guanxuan passed by a second-tier Spirit City, he stopped to rest and didn't immediately rush to Huajing Immortal City.

After all, Silver Maple City was more than three thousand miles away from Huajing Immortal City, and there were six Spirit Cities along the way, four first-tier Spirit Vein Cities and two second-tier Spirit Vein Cities, all under the jurisdiction of sects.

The second-tier Spirit City that Li Guanxuan came to was called Ruyi City, under the jurisdiction of the Bright Moon Sword Sect, so there were sword cultivators everywhere, and most of them were female sword cultivators.

Speaking of which, the Li family was also a sword cultivation family, and all their cultivation techniques were related to sword dao.

So Li Guanxuan naturally understood swordsmanship, but his aptitude had not reached the level of a sword cultivator.

Now that he had come to a Spirit City under the jurisdiction of the Bright Moon Sword Sect, Li Guanxuan felt a sense of familiarity.

In the tavern, Li Guanxuan tasted the local wine, and the taste and feeling were transmitted back to his true body.

"Young friend, I see that you have reached the peak of Qi Refining. Have you prepared the Foundation Building Pill?"

"No? That's... well, I am a mid-grade second-tier alchemist. I casually refined a Foundation Building Pill some time ago. Since we have fate, I'll sell it to you for five thousand low-grade spirit stones."

"No five thousand spirit stones? Well, how about four thousand eight hundred spirit stones? I'll take a loss..."

"..."

Hearing these slightly familiar words, Li Guanxuan was stunned for a moment.

Then he turned his head and saw Muren Li, who was wearing an Eight Trigrams alchemy robe and had gray hair and beard.

What a narrow road to enemies...

Li Guanxuan shook his head lightly, but he didn't have any intention to kill Muren Li. After all, it was just some minor grievances, not to the point of life and death.

"Young friend, traveling alone?"

At this moment, Muren Li fixed his gaze on Li Guanxuan because he also sensed the aura of Qi Refining peak on him.

Li Guanxuan, who was traveling outside as a clone, was not so polite anymore and said with a faint smile, "I don't need a low-quality Foundation Building Pill. Please go find someone else to sell your bad luck. No need to waste your breath in front of me."

"You... you dare to spread rumors and slander, tarnishing my reputation?!" Muren Li became angry and slammed the table, rebuking.

"A normal Foundation Building Pill has two Dao patterns. Your Foundation Building Pill only has one Dao pattern. If it's not a low-quality pill, then what is it? It only has a one in ten chance of helping someone break through Foundation Building. Once it fails, who will bear the consequences?"

Li Guanxuan's tone was indifferent, "Don't rush to hide the pill. If you have the ability, open it up and let everyone see if it's a low-quality Foundation Building Pill."

Seeing the gazes of many cultivators turning towards him, Muren Li coldly snorted and left, saying, "Ignorant fool, I can't be bothered to argue with you!"

Li Guanxuan chuckled and didn't care, continuing to drink and eat.

However, he just noticed the fleeting killing intent in Muren Li's eyes.

One more chapter to make up, five thousand words, still owe fifteen thousand words for updates.
