“You…where have you been all these years?

“When I came back from that new secret realm, I never saw you again. I thought something happened to you.”

The body of the thin old man was trembling slightly. He had always treated Lu Xuan as his nephew. After his sudden disappearance, he could not calm down for a long time.

“Mr. He, I was spotted by a disciple of a large sect in the secret realm, and I had an opportunity to join the sect. In addition, an evil sneak attack occurred while I was in the secret realm. In order to stay away from the whirlpool of the Wang family, I hurried to the sect. Door.”

Lu Xuan felt the strong concern in the old man’s tone and said with a hint of apology.

His spiritual consciousness was keenly aware of a fluctuation, and he immediately said to the thin old man.

“Mr. He, let’s change our place to reminisce about old times. It’s a little noisy here.”

“That’s him! He brought Lingzhi to Baicao Hall to cause trouble. Drive him out!”

The middle-aged monk with eyes as high as his head approached the hall with two senior Qi-training monks.

After hearing what Lu Xuan said, he immediately understood that Lu Xuan was teasing him. He became angry and went to call over the two high-level Qi-training monks who were maintaining the order of Baicao Hall to prevent anyone from causing trouble.

Lu Xuan looked at the two people rushing toward him and snorted coldly.

Immediately, spiritual energy surged within his body, and a cold, snow-white sword energy shot out from his fingertips.

The sword energy was like a sword, surrounding the two high-level qi-training monks and the middle-aged monk. The three of them suddenly felt that countless subtle cold sword energy penetrated their skin and seeped into their blood, bones and flesh.

The cold air filled the air, and his whole body seemed to be frozen, his movements were slow, and a thin layer of frost appeared on his skin and hair.

However, what is colder than their blood and bones is the hearts of the three of them. The three of them have lived in the city for decades. If nothing else, their eyesight is pretty good.

The equally cold Consciousness Sea immediately understood what Lu Xuan’s move meant.

A simple sword energy knocked out most of the mobility of two high-level qi-practicing monks, which showed that Lu Xuan was several levels higher than him in terms of swordsmanship and cultivation.

There is only one possibility, this handsome young man in front of me is a foundation-building monk! Thinking of this, the three of them were all horrified.

“Just give me a little punishment and you can resolve it on your own.”

Lu Xuan said casually, taking Mr. He and leaving Baicaotang.

The sword energy he used at will was the winter snow sword intention in the Four Seasons Sword Art. Under precise control, it froze the energy and blood of the three people. It must be resolved with relevant elixirs or talismans, otherwise it would leave hidden dangers.

The thin old man is the manager of Baicaotang. Although his status is not as good as before, he still owns a large house in the center of the square.

“Lu Xuan, have you become a foundation builder?”

Mr. He took a few deep breaths and asked tentatively.

He knew the details of the two guards very well in his heart. Lu Xuan could subdue them so easily with just one move. This was only possible if he was in the foundation-building realm.

“That’s right, I can be considered a master of foundation building now.”

“How’s it going? Is this surprise okay?”

Lu Xuan regained some of his youthful nature in front of the thin old man and said with a wink.

“We’ve already built the foundation, but it’s still not in full shape.”

His move made the thin old man feel much more friendly, as if he had returned to the past, and he couldn’t help but laugh and curse.

“However, your surprise is really not that big. It makes my old man’s heart a little bit unbearable.”

The old man patted his chest and said.

He really couldn’t imagine that the poor second-level qi-training practitioner had become a high-ranking foundation-building master.

You must know that Baicaotang is one of the major forces in Linyangfang City, and the alchemy master with the highest level of cultivation is also at the foundation-building level.

In other words, this unattractive young man in front of me is actually on an equal footing with the alchemy master of Baicaotang who he usually looks up to?

Seeing that the thin old man couldn’t calm down for a long time, Lu Xuan chuckled.

“Mr. He, do you still remember what happened after you introduced me to Baicaotang and established a cooperative relationship?”

“At that time, somehow, I suddenly discovered that I had a good talent in cultivating spiritual plants. It seemed that I was born with the ability to feel the vitality of spiritual plants.”

Lu Xuan fell into memories.

The thin old man nodded in agreement, he was deeply impressed by these.

The quality of the batches of Lingying grass that Lu Xuan brought over was getting higher and higher, so he joined hands to let Lu Xuan and Baicaotang establish a relatively free cooperation method.

Later, Lu Xuan even cultivated perfect quality spiritual plants, and when evil spirits invaded the city and caused a large number of spiritual plants to be contaminated, he even took action to rescue those diseased spiritual plants, and the two of them benefited a lot from it.

At that time, because of his meritorious service in recommending Lu Xuan, he received a lot of praise in Baicao Hall.

“Later, I met a monk from a large sect in the secret realm and found that I had cultivated a unique spiritual plant in the sect. He gave me an opportunity to join the sect. With this opportunity, I successfully entered the sect. , and then step by step until now.”

Lu Xuan continued.

“Thank you for your hard work over the years.”

The thin old man said in a serious tone that he could grow from a casual cultivator with no background to a foundation-building cultivator in less than ten years. He could imagine that Lu Xuan encountered countless difficulties and obstacles along the way.

“It’s not hard.” Lu Xuan shook his head in denial.

“I practiced hard day and night, worked hard to cultivate spiritual plants, and exchanged them all for elixirs to improve my cultivation. Then I luckily broke through to the foundation-building realm.”

He described himself as very hardworking and diligent.

The thin old man thought he was reporting good things but not bad things, and made all the difficulties he encountered into trivial matters, sighing constantly.

He made Lu Xuan doubt himself a little.

The two of them kept chatting about past events until they got excited, laughing or sighing together.

Half a day later, Lu Xuan saw that it was getting late, so he stood up and said goodbye to the thin old man.

“Mr. He, I came out this time because of the sect’s mission. I was thinking about you, old man, so I came over to visit you. Now, it’s time to leave.”

“Here are a few small gifts that may be of some use to you or your descendants.”

“This spirit fruit can improve your physique, but its medicinal properties are too strong. With your intermediate level of Qi training, Mr. He, you cannot eat too much at one time.”

“This bead is called the Explosive Flame Bead. It can instantly erupt into a large area of ​​scorching flames. If you encounter danger, you can directly hit it out.”

“There is also this talisman, which is called the Purifying Spirit Talisman. If it encounters evil spirits, it can be purified and dispersed. It can cause powerful damage to evil spirits of the evil level.”

“Finally, this token is called the Qingyun Order. With this order, you can save a lot of trouble and increase the possibility of success when you join the Tianjian Sect.”

“If you have outstanding talents among your descendants, you can take this token to the Tianjian Sect.”

Lu Xuan said, a red stone bead, a talisman as white as jade, a spiritual fruit wrapped in layers of jade skin, and a light cyan token floated towards the thin old man.
