Longevity And Romance Begin With The Redemption Of A Good Family

Chapter 319: The Wonderful Use Of The Spring And Autumn Brush

Although Li Jian reluctantly handed over the Spring and Autumn Pen as commanded by his master, he still wanted to practice with this pen a bit more.

Never mind if the meaning of the words written on it gradually weakens, as long as there is still some meaning for now.

But who knew that just as he took out the Spring and Autumn Pen, Wan Jian made an unexpected move.

He took the box containing the Spring and Autumn Pen and handed it to Lu Yu.

"Young friend, a small gift is not enough to show my respect, please accept it."

"Ah? Senior, this gift seems too valuable."

Lu Yu was greatly surprised.

He didn't expect Wan Jian to actually give him the Spring and Autumn Pen. This gift really caught him off guard.

Not only was he caught off guard, even Li Jian was surprised and didn't know what to say.

"Master, are you confused? How can such a treasure be casually given to an unrelated outsider? We have so many fellow disciples in our sect, all waiting for this pen to enhance their strength!"

"Nonsense! If you speak another word, go to the back mountain and reflect for ten years!"

"I..."

Li Jian wanted to say something else. But thinking about the punishment of ten years of reflection, he obediently closed his mouth.

"Don't you think about how you won just now? If it weren't for the reminder from this young friend, I'm afraid you would have lost even the Juque Sword now."

Wan Jian angrily explained the whole story.

Li Jian was greatly shocked.

The excitement of winning the Spring and Autumn Pen made him forget about almost losing earlier.

And at that time, someone happened to speak up and remind him, which turned the tables for him.

Could it be that the person who spoke up was him?

Li Jian looked at Lu Yu and felt that it didn't quite seem like him.

Because Lu Yu's strength was only at the Foundation Building stage.

"Hmph, I always tell you not to judge people by their appearance, not to judge people by their strength, but you never listen."

"This Fellow Daoist, thank you very much."

Li Jian thought it was understandable that he couldn't recognize the other party, but Wan Jian couldn't possibly be mistaken.

So he respectfully saluted Lu Yu without hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist Li doesn't need to be so polite, I just didn't like that Unintentional Master. It's just a small favor, not worthy of such a big gift."

"It's worthy! My master gave it to you, so just take it!"

While saying this, Li Jian signaled to Lu Yu with his eyes.

Now Lu Yu understood, this kid definitely had other plans.

Since that's the case, he might as well accept it first and figure it out later. He could always return it to Li Jian later.

Although he reminded him, after all, this competition was about using real treasures.

So under the strong insistence of Li Jian and his master, Lu Yu reluctantly accepted the box.

After Wan Jian gave away the Spring and Autumn Pen, he sat for a while and then left the banquet venue.

As for Li Jian, now that he had just made a mistake and been caught, he didn't dare to act recklessly. He could only obediently leave the scene with Wan Jian.

Their departure didn't cause any waves, because during this time, two other people had just gone up and had an intense competition with their treasures.

The treasures they brought out were very interesting, attracting everyone's attention.

And so the treasure competition continued until late at night, and the whole banquet finally came to an end.

In one day, more than ten Earth-grade treasures changed hands, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others.

But for most of the spectators, today was another eye-opening day.

At night, Lu Yu returned to his residence with Fairy Wanyue.

It was already late, and the other wives had already rested. He could only reluctantly engage in dual cultivation with Fairy Wanyue for three consecutive days.

Early the next morning, just as he was refining a furnace of elixirs during the morning, a guest arrived at his courtyard.

Sensing the presence at the door, Lu Yu quickly walked out of his quiet room.

"Good morning, Fellow Daoist Li."

"Hey, good morning to you too. By the way, I still don't know your name. Yesterday, I was too preoccupied with dealing with my master."

Li Jian shrugged and wore a pained expression.

"I'm Lu Yu, just an ordinary Foundation Building stage cultivator."

Lu Yu smiled slightly and introduced himself.

Li Jian nodded.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I really have to thank you for yesterday. To be honest, I'm extremely relieved now. If you hadn't reminded me, the consequences would have been unimaginable if I had lost."

After a pause, he continued in a low voice.

"Don't be fooled by my master's words about making me face the wall for ten years. If I had really lost the Juque Sword, he would have definitely killed me on the spot! So you saved my life."

"It's not that exaggerated. Your master is still quite good to you."

Lu Yu chuckled lightly and invited Li Jian to the guest hall.

At this moment, Wanan had just woken up.

Seeing that there was a guest, she nodded at Lu Yu and went to the kitchen to prepare a pot of tea.

"I wonder what brings Fellow Daoist Li here today?"

Lu Yu poured tea for Li Jian and asked with a smile.

"Well, I just wanted to come and cultivate. You know, the Spring and Autumn Pen has many benefits for cultivators like us at the Foundation Building stage. So I thought of practicing with you, how about it?"

"Well... that's fine."

Lu Yu nodded.

To be honest, the Spring and Autumn Pen was a free gift for him. Even if they didn't give it to him, what could they do? So he wasn't stingy and took it out directly.

Now that Li Jian, an outsider, was here, it was inconvenient for him to call Qin Qingrou and the others to practice together.

In addition, he had another idea. The benefits he gained from the words he wrote were probably substantial, and others probably wouldn't gain much even if they read them.

Taking out the Spring and Autumn Pen, he thought for a moment and wrote the character "spirit" in mid-air.

After finishing writing the character, Li Jian quickly stared at it and began to cultivate.

Lu Yu stepped back slightly and looked thoughtfully at the character, lost in thought.

As he had expected.

After writing this character, within a few breaths, it turned into golden starlight and flew towards him, merging into his body.

These golden dots were filled with the power of the Dao, making him feel very good.

Most of the power of this character was contained in these golden dots.

As for the remaining power that others could perceive, it was almost negligible.

But only Lu Yu knew about this, and even Li Jian didn't feel anything.

After contemplating three characters in Lu Yu's house, Li Jian finally got up and left.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm really grateful to you today. I have gained a lot from comprehending these three characters. I'll probably have to seclude myself and cultivate when I go back. When I come out, I'll treat you to a drink!"

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Li, you're too polite."

Lu Yu laughed heartily.

Li Jian gained a lot? If he knew how much Lu Yu had gained today, he probably wouldn't say that.

Just comprehending three characters had directly promoted Lu Yu to a small realm!

He was now at the fifth level of the Foundation Building stage, reaching the mid-stage of the Foundation Building stage.

If his formidable combat power was added to that, even cultivators in the late stage of the Foundation Building stage probably wouldn't be able to defeat him!
