Ch 137: The three converged.

After meeting up with Zhen Yongfu, the two of them flew together towards Wangxu City.

Zhen Yongfu had already noticed Lu Qing’an’s rapid progress in cultivation, having leaped to the Peak Xuanguang Realm in one fell swoop.

This left him somewhat bewildered.

“An Ge! Your breakthrough speed is simply too astonishing! Although those who go to the Longevity Pool to cultivate can all make breakthroughs in a short period, as far as I know, breaking through five levels is already the limit!”

Zhen Yongfu held his breath, once again learning a lesson from Lu Qing’an about the vastness of the world and the existence of those beyond compare.

Lu Qing’an said lightly, “My constitution is quite special; you don’t need to be too surprised. By the way, have you ever gone there to cultivate?”

He still had a Life Pool Token, allowing him to go cultivate again, but he didn’t intend to give it to Zhen Yongfu. Using this token himself would undoubtedly be more effective.

He would rather refine more Immortal Grade 5 Supreme Xuanling Pills for Zhen Yongfu, allowing Zhen Yongfu to cultivate more in Liuguang Hall to make breakthroughs.

Each time he went to the Longevity Pool, he could earn an additional one hundred million lifespan essence, and if he exchanged it all for Immortal Grade 7 Treasures, he would have quite a few.

“No.” Zhen Yongfu looked at Lu Qing’an enviously. Although envious, he wasn’t jealous; instead, he felt relieved for him. “An Ge, after your breakthrough, you’ll soon be able to enter the Xuji Realm, right? What are your plans afterward? Can you directly take the assessment to become a Core Disciple?”

Above the Inner Sect Disciples of the Xianjian Sect are the Core Disciples. Zhao Dezhu and the others are Core Disciples of the Xianjian Sect.

Lu Qing’an smiled slightly, “It depends on the situation. My current goal is clear: earn Contribution Points and continue to maintain a good master-disciple relationship with Du Feng.”

He planned to maintain a master-disciple relationship with Du Feng for a period of time, and then ask Du Feng to secure an opportunity for his “friend” to go to the Advanced Longevity Exchange Tower. If he made the request immediately after becoming master and disciple, it would inevitably arouse Du Feng’s suspicion.

“Very good, then we must complete the task of this trip! Hehe, over four thousand Contribution Points are enough for us to use generously for a long time!” Zhen Yongfu rubbed his hands together, eager to try.

The two of them spent some time flying to the center of Wangxu City and met up with Xu Qingying.

After receiving Lu Qing’an’s Voice Transmission, Xu Qingying quickly rushed over from the Xianjian Sect. She wore a veil, covering most of her face, but her graceful figure already revealed her beauty.

Lu Qing’an and Zhen Yongfu landed in front of Xu Qingying.

“Haha, I apologize for keeping you waiting.” Zhen Yongfu said somewhat awkwardly.

“It’s alright.” Xu Qingying smiled softly, then looked at Lu Qing’an gently, “You’ve already broken through to the Peak Xuanguang Realm; congratulations.”

“Did you know beforehand about my breakthrough?” Lu Qing’an looked at Xu Qingying with some surprise.

Clearly, Xu Qingying didn’t just learn about his breakthrough in cultivation; she seemed to have known before he arrived.

Was it intuition?

That shouldn’t be right; intuition wouldn’t be that powerful.

Xu Qingying covered her mouth and chuckled, “You just left the Longevity Pool, right? Elder Lei there has a good relationship with me; he probably sent me a Voice Transmission about it not long after you left.”

Lu Qing’an was slightly startled.

This little girl, only a few years in the Xianjian Sect, has already reached this level?!

She can already interact with Huan Yu Realm strong persons?

“Is that so? You have such a good relationship with a Huan Yu Realm strong person; I really didn’t expect that.” Lu Qing’an smiled faintly.

Xu Qingying said, “He discovered that I possess a Special Constitution and informed my Master about it.”

Lu Qing’an roughly understood, then stared at Xu Qingying and asked, “Logically, your Master should give you a chance to cultivate at the Longevity Pool. Do you plan to cultivate to the later stages of the Xuanguang Realm before going, to better break through to the Xuji Realm cultivation?”

With Xu Qingying’s current status, she certainly wouldn’t lack an opportunity to cultivate at the Longevity Pool; she might even have two opportunities.

After all, she is currently the Sect Leader’s only Direct Disciple.

Xu Qingying nodded, “I plan to break through to the eighth level of the Xuanguang Realm before going, so I should be able to steadily break through to the Xuji Realm cultivation with one trip. After all, I’m not like you, able to leap ten levels at once.”

Having said that, stars twinkled in Xu Qingying’s eyes; only Lu Qing’an could achieve such an astonishing feat.

He’s truly the man she chose!

“By the way, there’s something I really want to ask you.” Xu Qingying hesitated slightly.

“You want to ask me why I rejected your Master’s invitation?” Lu Qing’an smiled faintly.

If nothing unexpected happened, Sect Leader Liu Lingxuan must have inquired about him, and Xu Qingying had hidden many things for him.

“Yes, she asked me many things about you. I told her everything I could, and for what I couldn’t, I followed your instructions and didn’t say a word!” Xu Qingying’s eyes showed anticipation, as if seeking Lu Qing’an’s praise.

Lu Qing’an smiled, “It seems you still remember our agreement.”

“Then why did you refuse my Master?” Xu Qingying was slightly puzzled. Wouldn’t it be wonderful to become the Sect Leader’s Direct Disciple?

Zhen Yongfu listened in shock, his face showing disbelief. He silently muttered in his heart: An Ge! The Sect Leader invited you to become her disciple, and you refused? You two are truly a match made in heaven!

He even refused the Sect Leader!

Lu Qing’an laughed, “I have my own goals. I came here for Du Feng, so don’t ask. It’s a pity that we can’t become senior and junior martial siblings.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingying felt a little disappointed. She did want to become senior and junior martial siblings with Lu Qing’an, so they could spend more time together.

“Alright, wait here; I’ll go there for a bit.” Lu Qing’an said, and flew towards the Intermediate Life Exchange Secret Realm not far away.

He left Wangxu City to complete his task. To be safe, he would exchange a few more Immortal Grade 7 Treasures for emergencies.

Seeing Lu Qing’an fly towards the Life Exchange Secret Realm, the two waited patiently on the spot.

Since becoming a disciple of the Xianjian Sect, Lu Qing’an no longer needed to pay Immortal Stones to enter the Intermediate Life Exchange Secret Realm. He easily showed his Identity Token and was smoothly allowed to enter the depths of the Secret Realm.

He was familiar with the way, finally arriving at the Lifespan Exchange Tower in the center of the Secret Realm, and quickly exchanged several Immortal Grade 7 Treasures.

“Good luck; the Treasures exchanged this time all have miraculous effects.” Lu Qing’an returned satisfied.

But when he returned to Xu Qingying and Zhen Yongfu, he found someone hiding behind them.

Du Weiwei seemed to want to give Lu Qing’an a scare. As he approached, she jumped out from behind the two.

“Junior Martial Brother, were you scared by your Senior Martial Sister?” Du Weiwei had a playful smile on her face, inconsistent with her older sister-like temperament.

Now that Lu Qing’an was her father’s disciple, he naturally became her junior martial brother.

Lu Qing’an had sensed Du Weiwei’s “ambush” from a mile away.

“Senior Martial Sister, you really scared me.” Lu Qing’an cooperated with Du Weiwei’s performance.

“You really broke through to the Peak Xuanguang Realm; I’ve been surpassed by you again in other aspects.” Du Weiwei looked at Lu Qing’an’s cultivation and smiled faintly, then changed the subject, “By the way, where are you going? Can you take me with you? I have nothing to do lately.”

She passed by and saw Zhen Yongfu and Xu Qingying here, so she came to ask. Unexpectedly, they only said they were waiting for someone.

Lu Qing’an thought for a moment, believing it inappropriate to expose too many of his Hidden Strengths in front of Du Weiwei, so he shook his head and refused, “Senior Martial Sister, we can’t take you.”
