When they came to the appointed cave, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu saw Qingmei.
“Yo,XiaoXu is out of seclusion.Hmn, your aptitude is not bad. You’ve only been a few years in seclusion, right? You’re already a six-star in the Spiritual Profound Realm.” Seeing Jiang Xu, Qingmei was a little surprised.
“Senior, is always over praising, but it’s just the strength heaped up from spiritual treasures.” Without the Golden Source Pearl, Jiang Xu wouldn’t be able to advance so quickly.
“That’s not really true. Which second generation cultivators don’t have a lot of spirit stones, pills, and spiritual treasures? But some people are destined to be stupid. No matter how many good resources you give him, his strength will not improve. On the contrary, some people’s cultivation aptitude is sky-high, and they can greatly increase their strength with a little resources. Therefore, this cultivation still depends on talent, not wealth.” Qingmei laughed as she said.
These two boys, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu, were already cultivators of the Spiritual Profound Realm before they were five hundred years old. Being lucky to find some spiritual treasures was of course a very important reason, but the cultivation qualifications of these two boys were also top-notch, otherwise, their strength would not have advanced so quickly. So wealth alone was not enough. To become a high-ranking cultivator, wealth and aptitude were both indispensable. You must not only have the assistance of external forces, but also have your own good aptitude, so that you could continuously improve your cultivation.
“What Senior said is right.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng agreed.
“Take it, these are the poisonous weeds you wanted.” Saying that, Qingmei handed Liu Mufeng a storage ring.
After receiving it, Liu Mufeng used his soul power to check it out. Nodding in satisfaction, he took out the pills that Qingmei wanted and handed it to the other party, completing the transaction this time.
After getting the pills, Qingmei checked it carefully and made sure there was no problem before putting it away. “How is your Master recently?”
Hearing this, Liu Mufeng laughed. “My Master is well.” This is what Qingmei would ask every time she saw him.
“Oh.” Nodding, Qingmei didn’t say anything more.
It had been three years since she left that day, and she had never seen Yuantu again. It seemed that he had completely given up on her. Thinking of that day, when the man asked her for marriage, Qingmei felt a little dull pain in her heart. Maybe she should have agreed. Yuantu was the first person who wanted to marry her, but she refused.
Every time she came here, she always hoped that the person who came to see her would be that man, but every time she looked forward, it would turn into disappointment. He never appeared again. Every time she came to an appointment, Qingmei felt very uncomfortable. She had thought countless times that if they met again, if Yuantu was still willing to marry her, she would agree, but they never met again.. never again…
“Senior, we will take our leave first.” After cupping their hands towards Qingmei, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu wanted to leave.
“Wait a minute, don’t leave in a hurry, I have some good news to tell you.” Qingmei said with a smile.

“I heard that he went to a ruin with a few comrades to hunt for treasure, but was swallowed by a demon beast in the ruin.” Qingmei gave the answer with a smile.
“Oh? Killed by a demon beast.” Hearing this, Liu Mufeng rolled his eyes. He felt that this matter was not that simple.Could it be Master? He remembered that when he was blocked by Sun De and his disciples in Black Stone Ridge, his Master said that he wanted to help him get rid of Sun De. Could it be that his Master really bought other cultivators to deal with Sun De?
After thinking about it, Liu Mufeng felt that this possibility was very high. Otherwise, if an
an eighth-level cultivator encountered a more powerful eighth-level demon beast, even if he couldn’t beat it, there was no problem escaping from it. However, if he met the demon beast and the Fellow Daoists around him betrayed him and attacked him together with the demon beast, then even if Sun De had ten lives, he would not be able to survive. So, he’s afraid this matter was not that simple.
“Why, Nephew Liu doesn’t believe it?” Seeing Liu Mufeng’s shocked appearance, Qingmei asked with a smile.
“Oh, I was just surprised when I heard the news suddenly. I didn’t expect such a strong man like Elder Sun to fall.” Liu Mufeng smiled.
“Oh.” Nodding, Qingmei didn’t ask any more questions and thought:Does this matter have anything to do with Yuantu?
“Senior, there is still something to do in the sect,XiaoXu and I will go back first.” Lowering his head, Liu Mufeng gave a deep salute.
“En,you guys go back, you can contact me anytime if you need anything.” Nodding her head, Qingmei watched the two leave the cave.
Standing in the empty cave, Qingmei’s gaze strayed onto the turquoise stone slab and her gaze was fixated, because that was where Yuantu often sat, and when she was recuperating, Yuantu often sat there to cultivate…
Back in the room, Jiang Xu directly set up a barrier enchantment. “Mufeng, do you think this is true? Sun De is really dead?”
Looking at the excited expression on his wife’s face, Liu Mufeng smiled. “I think it should be true. It is impossible for Senior Qingmei to joke about this kind of thing.”
“That’s really great, that old bastard is dead, we don’t have to be afraid of him whenever we go out to practice in the future.” Jiang Xu laughed happily.
“XiaoXu, I want to visit Master. I’ll come back later to have lunch with you.” Looking at his partner, Liu Mufeng said softly.
“Oh, then you go.” Nodding, Jiang Xu didn’t stop his partner. The barrier enchantment was opened directly.
“En.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng turned and left.
When he came to his Master’s palace, Liu Mufeng walked over to his Master sitting on a chair drinking tea, and saluted his Master respectfully. “Greetings Master.”
“En,sit down, it’s just in time for you to come. An old friend of mine gave me a box of good tea, you taste it too.” As he said, Jiang Yuantu poured a cup of tea for Liu Mufeng.
“Thank you, Master.” Bowing down, Liu Mufeng sat beside his Master, and respectfully took the tea being offered.
“IsXiaoxu going to leave seclusion soon? Isn’t Tianbao City’s auction coming soon?” Lowering his head, Jiang Yuantu took a sip of tea and asked.
“En,XiaoXu has already come out of seclusion. Just now,XiaoXu and I went to see Senior Qingmei and heard some news.” Looking at his Master, Liu Mufeng said softly.
Hearing Qingmei’s name, Jiang Yuantu unconsciously squeezed the tea bowl twice. “Oh? What news?”
“Senior Qingmei said that Sun De is dead.” Liu Mufeng didn’t hide anything.
Jiang Yuantu nodded. “En,it’s been three months since he died.”
“Master, you…”
“Don’t say too much, it’s not a big deal.” Lowering his head, Jiang Yuantu took another sip of tea.
“Thank you, Master.” Putting down the teacup in his hand, Liu Mufeng hurriedly fell to his knees.
“It doesn’t have to be like this.” Putting down the tea bowl in his hand, Jiang Yuantu helped his disciple up.
“Master’s great kindness, this disciple will never forget it.” He knew it must be his Master, and it was indeed so.
“There is no need to talk about this between you and me, Master and Apprentice. Recently, the popularity of Spiritual Cultivation Pills has dropped. Have you considered reducing the price, or selling the recipes to the Sect?” Jiang Yuantu asked while drinking tea. .
“Master, I’m going to Tianbao City to participate in the auction this time. If it goes well, I will go into seclusion after I come back. I don’t plan to sell alchemy pills for the time being. As for the price of the pills, I can adjust it. After going into seclusion, Master will be the only one who can refine Spiritual Cultivation Pills in the Zunhuang Continent, and Master can adjust the price to 100 million spirit stones.” Liu Mufeng expressed his plan to his Master.
Jiang Yuantu nodded. “En, you don’t lack spirit stones in your hand now. If you can buy a spiritual treasure suitable for cultivation at the auction, go into seclusion for a period of time, and then improve your strength. In this way, if you go to the ruins of the Stone Clan, you will be more powerful and safe.”
“Yes, this disciple also thinks that spirit stones can always be earned. If there is no strength, no matter how many spirit stones there are, it is useless. Therefore, this disciple should focus on improving his strength. In this way, after going to the ruins of the Stone Clan, I will not lose my life.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng also thought similarly.
“En, you’re right.” Nodding his head, Jiang Yuantu agreed.
Picking up the teapot, Liu Mufeng respectfully poured tea for his Master and also poured himself a new cup of tea. “Master, Senior Qingmei misses you very much, and she always asks about you every time we meet.”
“Oh.” In response, Jiang Yuantu lowered his head and took a sip of the tea in the cup. For some reason, he suddenly felt that the tea in his mouth was bitter. .
Seeing such an indifferent Master, Liu Mufeng frowned. “Master, your Palace is so big, it’s really empty for you to live alone. Otherwise, when Master goes outside of the sect to relax, find a female cultivator who is destined to come back with you?”
Jiang Yuantu looked at Liu Mufeng. “You think I like Qingmei?”
“There should be some friendship between Master and Senior Qingmei. However, Master and Senior Qingmei are not on the same path. It may not be a good thing to get together reluctantly. It would be better if Master finds another good relationship.” Liu Mufeng had always disagreed with Qingmei being his Master’s wife. He was very aware of his Master’s temper. If his Master chooses Qingmei, the person who would get hurt must be his Master.
“Forget it, I’m already old, why look for a destined person?” Waving his hand, Jiang Yuantu expressed his lack of interest.
“Master, age is not a problem, the most important thing is your heart.” Liu Mufeng still felt that his Master was too lonely, and he needed someone to accompany him.
“En, let’s talk about it some other time.” Lowering his head, Jiang Yuantu took another sip of tea and thought:Heart?I had the intention to marry her, but she had no intention to marry me, even if there is love?
