Chapter 319: Firm Refusal

but he wasn't a bloodthirsty person.If even six small celestial bodies couldn't survive the tribulation, then this Lingxiao Palace would truly be at its end. With this thought in mind, Yuan Min nervou...Thinking, he started to act. Lu Xiaotian took Di Kun out of his spirit beast bag, but found that there wasn't a good way to communicate with him. Di Kun was extremely powerful and had a high combat talent. When encountering demonic beasts, he didn't even need Lu Xiaotian's command. He could easily kill the Yin corpse-type demonic beasts in Yin Feng Valley. When Lu Xiaotian left Yin Feng Valley, he didn't even have to make a move.

The thing about the ice-blue flames, he couldn't explain it to Di Kun. Besides, Di Kun had his past memories erased by the Soul-Losing Seal. He didn't know anything about it. Seeing him point at his own leg and then try to communicate with Di Kun using his divine sense, Di Kun just looked like a tiger with a long beard, he only glanced at him in surprise, then looked at his immobile legs, without any signs of wanting to absorb the ice-blue flames.

“Alright, let’s go back.” After half an hour of effort, Lu Xia Tian sighed, Zhu Di Kun returned to the spiritual beast bag. It seemed that he couldn't get rid of the wheelchair for a short time. Although Lu Xia Tian had a strong acceptance ability, when his legs were healthy, he could respond to many dangers on the spot. Now, in this way, he was somewhat restricted. He was still a little uncomfortable.

"Quack..." Dikun didn't like this kind of environment outside. After all, he used to prefer staying in the spirit beast pouch compared to being in a place with such heavy yin energy like the tomb. However, Xiaohuo Ya was different. After entering the courtyard, it was immediately released and ran around everywhere.

Faced with the clamoring little fire crow, Lu Xia Tian was too lazy to care. Having just broken through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, his realm was not yet very stable at this time. Even after practicing the Concealment Art, the fluctuations of his mana were easily sensed by some powerful cultivators.

Over the next half month, Lu Xia Tian didn't go anywhere. He just stayed in his room, repeatedly consolidating his existing realm.

Half a month later, one afternoon, an sound transmission note flew from outside the courtyard. Lu Xia Tian opened it, and inside, Wang De Feng's voice rang out, filled with surprise and a touch of regret. "Fellow Daoist Lu, you're finally back! You're truly as elusive as a dragon appearing but never seen. Where are you I'll come see you right away. If that's inconvenient, you could also come to Zhu Yue Zhai in the east part of the city. I'm here now."

Wang De Feng's voice carried a hint of urgency, but he didn't explicitly say what the matter was. Lu Xiao Tian frowned slightly and, after a moment of thought, decided to go over and talk about it.

After half an hour, passing through several streets, they arrived in the east of the city. A small stream flowed through a verdant bamboo forest here. This area was also within the scope of Moonlight City, known for its picturesque mountains and flowing water. To own a residence here meant being either wealthy or noble within Moonlight City. Typically, it would be high-ranking members of the Wandering Cultivator Alliance or prominent families residing in the city who could afford such a place. Wang Defeng, as a core member of the Wang family, having a piece of land here was not surprising at all.

Lu XiaTian was seated on a low-level wooden horse puppet. He had bought it at the marketplace. While it was fine for traveling around the city, even cultivators at the Qi Refining stage would look down upon it for use in combat.

“Lu Daoyou, you finally showed up! You know these past two years, I waited for you so painfully.” Entering Zhú Yuè Zhāi, Wáng Défēng saw Lù Xiǎotiān and beamed with delight, warmly greeting him.

“Who is this fellow” Lu Xiaoteng’s gaze went past Wang DeFeng and landed on a stern-faced scholar behind him. The man held a folding fan in his hand and was currently sitting motionless in the pavilion by the stream.

“Come come come, let me introduce you. This is my big client I managed to bring in this time, Fan Dao friend. Friend Fan has what Daoist Lu needs.” Here, Wang De-feng lowered his voice. “But this person insists on meeting Daoist Lu before he’ll consider giving the items to the alchemist behind Daoist Lu.”

"Is this the person Wang Dao mentioned He doesn't look like much." The scholar surnamed Fan narrowed his long eyes, taking a particular glance at Lu Xiaottian. Especially after seeing the ordinary wooden puppet beneath him.

“Wang Dao, I think you’ve misunderstood something. My condition for trading with you before was to have a single line of contact. How you negotiate with the client is your business. If you can't reach an agreement, you are welcome to find other collaborators.” Lu Xia Tian said calmly, controlling the wooden horse puppet to turn and leave.

"Presumptuous!" A fierce pressure belonging to a late Foundation Establishment cultivator violently erupted from the middle-aged scholar.

“If you want to do something, just get started and don’t try to put on a show.” This kind of intimidation was nothing to Lu Xia Tian. Lu Xia Tian continued to leave, completely unaffected.

“Lu Dao You, don’t…” Wang Defeng angrily glared back at the middle-aged scholar, then hurriedly chased after Lu Xia Tian.

"My rules won't change. If you have something to say, talk to him directly. If you reach an agreement, then come find me. If not, it's fine." After saying this, Lu Xia Tian turned his head to glance at the scholar surnamed Fan, and a stronger wave of pressure pushed back. Some spiritual birds in the bamboo forest were startled and flew away.

Lu Xia Tian's momentum retracted immediately, but it was enough to make the cultivators surnamed Fan change color. As for Wang De Feng, who was only in the middle stage of Qi Refining, he was startled and stood awkwardly in place, daring not block Lu Xia Tian's path any longer.

Lu Xia Tian had no intention of staying. Although he didn't know the background or intentions of the scholar surnamed Fan, Lu Xia Tian wasn't interested in finding out. Even if the man truly had a Jin Condensing Fruit, this connection couldn't be opened. After all, the fact that he was selling some pills was known only to Wang De Feng for now. To ensure Wang De Feng continued to buy pills from him, he needed to keep this secret. However, once others knew and realized they could get Jin Condensing Pills from him, this connection would be open. Perhaps Wang De Feng would then believe that in other special circumstances, he could also find alternatives.

The more people who know, the harder it becomes for him to keep his secret. It's too risky to let others find out about his business of making potions for other alchemists. It's simply not worth risking exposure for a chance at obtaining the Golden Condensation Fruit. If all the other Golden Condensation Fruits from different lineages had already been gathered, perhaps he would take the risk. But now that Lu Xia Tian hasn't reached the point of being blinded by greed, it's not worth it.

Leaving Zhuyue Pavilion, Lu Xiaoteng wandered around the bustling market for a few circles. After confirming that no one was following him, he went to the courtyard of the bald old man. The bald old man's name was Chen Guo Lao. After taking the Qing霜 Longgui Pill, his reaction was similar to Su Qing's. Not only did his injuries recover extremely quickly, but his cultivation also slowly improved. To this, Chen Guo Lao was amazed and incredibly grateful to Lu Xiaoteng. That day, the two discussed the way of formations, giving Lu Xiaoteng a book on formations.

Lu Xia Tian was also experiencing formation for the first time. After the initial novelty wore off, he realized that the deduction of formations was a very tedious process. Those ordinary formation disks sold on the market must have taken countless efforts from formation masters, even more so than alchemy or artifact refinement, consuming divine sense. However, Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but smile slightly. When it came to divine sense, he was least afraid of depletion. It seemed like he had something to do in the future, and his deputy primordial spirit wouldn't be idle either.
