FWF Chapter 155
Chapter 155
Lu Yu went to Qingyun Shop again and bought a lot of rare fruits called Jinpin Mei.
With the help of such precious items for dual cultivation, Lu Yu's days of dual cultivation became more hopeful.
But these hopeful days passed in the blink of an eye.
One day, the shopkeeper sent a message.
The senior Nascent Soul from the main building of Qingyun Shop came to assess Lu Yu.
The wives and concubines all knew that Lu Yu might be leaving for a while.
They had already prepared the daily necessities for him in advance.
They surrounded Lu Yu, their eyes turning red with reluctance.
"Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
"If there's anything, remember to have the shopkeeper inform me."
Lu Yu smiled.
Lu Yu had tried to inquire about the specific content of the assessment from the senior several times, but the results were always unknown.
He only knew that it would take approximately six months to five years.
He only had a fifty percent chance of passing this assessment.
After all, the last evaluation was extremely difficult, and he didn't know how challenging this assessment would be.
But he wasn't nervous.
Even if he didn't pass the assessment, Qingyun Shop wouldn't revoke his status as a second-grade guest cultivator.
Moreover, if he didn't pass this time, he could trigger the evaluation and assessment again when he advanced to become a third-grade guest alchemist of Qingyun Shop.
After hugging each of his wives and concubines, Lu Yu stepped into the teleportation array.
His wives and concubines followed suit.
"Husband, we'll see you off."
Lu Yu nodded without saying much.
After a flash of white light, they appeared on the streets of Poyun City.
Leading his wives and concubines, Lu Yu walked towards Qingyun Shop.
After a few steps, Lu Yu took Qin Qingrou's hand and said, "Qingrou, among all of us, your cultivation level is the highest."
"You must take care of Ling'er, Wanwan, and Lanshan for me."
"Also, this is a sound transmission jade slip from the shopkeeper. I'm leaving it with you."
"If there's anything difficult to decide, you can also seek advice from the shopkeeper."
"While I'm away, you should focus on preparing for Foundation Building. If the Foundation Building Pills I left behind are used up, just ask the shopkeeper to purchase more."
Qin Qingrou nodded earnestly and said, "Husband, don't worry. I'll stay at home more during this time and go to the shop less."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yu felt a slight relief. With Qin Qingrou at home, nothing unexpected should happen.
As the assessment day approached, he also exchanged a large number of spirit beast pills for spirit stones, as well as some daily consumables.
Whether it was spirit food, spirit tea, or spirit wine, it should be enough for his wives and concubines for quite some time.
When they reached a street corner, Lu Yu waved his hand for his wives and concubines to go back, and then hurriedly made his way to Qingyun Shop.
Before long, he saw the storefront of the shop and the shopkeeper standing outside.
"Fellow Daoist Lu."
"Follow me. The senior Nascent Soul is waiting in the private room on the third floor."
"Do you have anything else to take care of or instruct me about?"
Lu Yu bowed and smiled, "Other than asking the shopkeeper to take good care of my wives and concubines at home, I have no other instructions."
The shopkeeper smiled, "Of course, rest assured. During your absence, not only me, but Qingyun Shop will also ensure that Fellow Daoist's family members encounter no problems."
"If necessary, Senior Xu is also willing to lend a hand."
As they spoke, they went up to the third floor of the shop.
As they approached, the shopkeeper fell silent, deliberately falling two steps behind, just like last time.
Lu Yu didn't pay much attention and went straight upstairs.
The third floor was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The cultivators and guest cultivators in the shop all stood on both sides.
They all wore respectful and solemn expressions, even looking down at the ground in front of them.
If Lu Yu hadn't recognized many familiar faces among these people, he would have thought he had arrived in an unfamiliar place.
After Manager Ren led Lu Yu upstairs, he didn't follow anymore. Instead, he let Lu Yu continue walking forward along the two rows of cultivators.
Lu Yu looked at a room with two cultivators standing outside who seemed to be at the Foundation Building stage. He knew that the room must be where the Nascent Soul senior was.
Qingyun Commercial Building.
In Lu Yu's eyes, it always wore a mysterious and powerful veil.
From the senior in the merit room to the ordinary female attendants, it was extremely rare for anyone to freely enter the main building.
But Lu Yu knew it very well.
It seemed that the Nascent Soul senior came this time just to take a look and lead the way.
According to Senior Xu's words, once a guest cultivator passed the evaluation of Tianji Guest Cultivators, the main building would send a Nascent Soul senior to lead them to a special place for assessment.
But where exactly this special place was, no one had ever known.
And, it was said to be very far away.
After calming his emotions slightly, Lu Yu knocked on the door of the room.
"Please come in."
The voice sounded very unfamiliar.
According to Manager Ren's revelation just now, this senior was already at the mid-Nascent Soul stage.
Lu Yu lowered his head and entered, cupping his hands and said, "I am Lu Yu, a guest cultivator of the first rank of Qingyun Commercial Building. I have seen the senior!"
A slightly playful tone came from in front of him, "Fellow Daoist Lu, there's no need to be so formal."
"To be able to become a guest cultivator of the first rank in Qingyun Commercial Building with Qi Refining cultivation, and to pass the evaluation of Tianji Guest Cultivators."
"It's truly rare."
"Follow me."
Lu Yu took the lead and looked at a male cultivator with a wide forehead, a slight smile on his face.
Senior Xu, who was sitting beside him, quickly smiled and said, "Senior Luoshui."
"I was fortunate enough to have a fellow Daoist Lu from Poyun City Branch. Please take care of him!"
Senior Xu respectfully bowed.
The cultivator with the wide forehead waved his hand and smiled, "We are from the same commercial building. It is my duty to ensure that Fellow Daoist Lu arrives safely at the assessment location."
"Please rest assured."
After saying that, he didn't seem to make any movements.
A powerful but extremely stable airflow lifted him and Lu Yu together.
In the blink of an eye, it turned into a faint stream of light and flew out of the window, disappearing into the sky.
The cultivators on the third floor felt relieved when they felt the heavy pressure disappear, but their eyes were full of envy as they looked at the room.
Manager Ren also stared at the room, his face filled with worry.
...
The scenery kept flying backward in Lu Yu's eyes.
The sound of the strong wind occasionally brushed past his ears.
Feeling the extremely fast flying speed, Lu Yu didn't dare to make any unnecessary movements.
It wasn't until his body felt a bit sore that Lu Yu turned his head slightly to look beside him.
The Nascent Soul senior with a wide forehead was slightly ahead of him.
In Lu Yu's eyes, he seemed like an ordinary person, without emitting an overwhelming spiritual pressure.
But in the blink of an eye, the Nascent Soul senior with a wide forehead seemed to have merged with the heavens and the earth because of this ordinary aura, making it difficult for people to look directly at him.
After a while, Lu Yu felt his feet touch the ground.
"This journey will take more than a month, so it's normal for the immortal boat to sway a bit."
"Take him to familiarize himself with the surroundings."
"Yes, Senior Luoshui."
A female cultivator immediately walked out from the side.
Lu Yu looked at the female cultivator and saw that she was wearing a white robe with a cloud pattern outlined in gold thread on her chest.
This was obviously the exclusive robe of Qingyun Commercial Building.
It was somewhat similar to the black and red cloud robe he had been given before.
