Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 72 Ten-Year Reunion (10,000-word update, please subscribe)

A month later.

Shen Xuan bypassed Qinglong Bay and arrived at Wolongfang City.

He went directly to Juxianlou to meet up with Wang Fugui.

"Shen Xuan, you've finally arrived! Come, try some of our signature dishes!"

Wang Fugui greeted them with a beaming smile and personally served them.

His body had gained even more weight, now weighing a full 300 pounds.

Her belly is so round that you can't see her toes when she looks down.

"Wang Fugui, you bought this place?"

Seeing Wang Fugui directing the waiters to serve dishes and tea, he looked just like a restaurant owner.

"How can it be!"

"How could I afford it!"

"I'm just an employee!"

Wang Fugui looked around and lowered his voice: "Young Marquis!"

Shen Xuan understood.

After achieving Foundation Establishment, Lü Zhengying began to find ways to acquire property, earn spirit stones, and repay the debts incurred during his Foundation Establishment.

This Juxianlou restaurant also fell into his hands.

Wang Fugui was skilled in business and became the manager of Juxianlou Restaurant.

It's important to know that the restaurant business is highly profitable and has a wide customer base.

Without connections, it's very difficult to establish oneself in the marketplace.

"It's still early. They'll be back in a few days. Why don't you take a stroll around the market? You can eat all your meals here; it's free!"

"You're welcome then!"

After a long journey, Shen Xuan was also tired, so he decided to eat some spiritual food to replenish his energy.

Two days later, Li Chang'an also arrived.

As soon as he arrived, he found Shen Xuan at the inn and brought a large pile of worthless local specialties.

"Thank you for taking care of Xiu'er, Fellow Daoist Shen!"

"Not at all, it's nothing. If you want to thank someone, thank Wang Fugui!"

Li Chang'an's youngest son, Yu Zhenxiu, was merely a shop assistant at Zhao Chunsheng's shop in Yunyuan Immortal City.

Unexpectedly, Li Chang'an was extremely grateful for this.

Thinking about it, that makes sense.

That's Cloud Abyss Immortal City!
With Yu Zhen's talent for cultivating inferior spiritual roots, being able to live in Yunyuan Immortal City is already considered quite remarkable within the Yu family.

Thereafter.

Li Chang'an also stayed at the inn, spending his free time shopping and chatting with Shen Xuan.

He also had a difficult life.

His status as a son-in-law prevented him from ever achieving his ambitions.

Despite all the things he did for the Yu family.

They had no say in family affairs.

His status was even lower than that of his descendants.

Shen Xuan offered a few words of comfort and then said no more.

You choose your own path.

You have to bear all the joys and sorrows yourself.

A few days later, the day of the gathering arrived.

Shen Xuan and Li Chang'an sat in the VIP room of Juxianlou early on.

If we weren't classmates.

Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying are now figures they look up to from afar.

They didn't bother with them at all.

Li Chang'an was self-aware.

Throughout his life, he was nothing more than an experienced early-stage Qi Refining Spirit Farmer.

It's considered good if you can eat spirit rice for three meals a day.

What right do I have to dare to spend money in a place like Juxianlou!

Shen Xuan remained calm.

He possesses a mysterious jade talisman that grants him the ability to plunder the bloodline talents of demonic beasts and enhance their spiritual root aptitude.

For him, foundation building was inevitable.

It's just a matter of how much time and effort it takes.

The restaurant staff served them spiritual fruits and wine to tide them over.

About half an hour.

A sudden commotion arose outside the private room.

"Get your manager, Mr. Wang, out here!"

"Is this how he entertains his classmates and friends?"

A dissatisfied voice shouted loudly.

Shen Xuan was taken aback. "It's Zhao Sujin's husband, Yu Jiancheng!" Li Chang'an stepped forward and said in a low voice.

The door to the private room opened.

A tall monk strode in, holding the hand of a six- or seven-year-old child.

"Li Chang'an, it's been a long time!"

He casually sat down in the middle of the seat and placed the toddler on the seat next to him.

"Which one are you?"

Shen Xuan frowned slightly.

This person is extremely rude.

Judging from his aura, he should be at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

But he put on an arrogant demeanor.

The key point is that this is Zhao Sujin's classmate reunion.

Even if he was Zhao Sujin's husband, he shouldn't have come uninvited.

And she had a young child with her.

"My lord, this is Master Shen Fu."

Zhao Sujin arrived in a hurry and quickly introduced herself.

Yu Jiancheng glanced at him sideways but did not respond.

On the surface, Shen Xuan is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

Wang Fugui squeezed in behind her.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Yu. It's been many years, but you're still as dashing as ever!" Wang Fugui said with a smile.

His gaze lingered on the child for a few moments, a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"This is the youngest son, Yu Wenying, with a mid-grade spiritual root!"

Yu Jiancheng said with considerable pride, "When will Fairy Qin and Elder Lü arrive?"

"When the time comes, Manager Wang, please put in a good word for him. If your youngest son can become a disciple of Fairy Qin and Elder Lü, you will surely benefit from it!"

Wang Fugui's expression remained unchanged: "It's only right."

"However, today is a class reunion. Forgive me for being nosy, but let's discuss the matter of becoming apprentices another day, shall we?"

"What's there to change! Today is a good day! My son has a mid-grade spiritual root!"

Yu Jiancheng reached out and took the tray of spirit fruits, peeled a few spirit fruits and threw them into his mouth.

"If it weren't for his status as an elder of the Qingyun Sect, I wouldn't be willing to part with him!"

Wang Fugui smiled wryly, looked at Zhao Sujin beside him with a pleading expression, and shook his head.

"Fellow Daoist Yu, I'll go attend to my business first. Please sit here for a moment. Fairy Qin and Elder Lü will be here shortly."

"Go!"

Zhao Sujin sat down lightly next to the child.

"Su Jin, when Fairy Qin and Elder Lü arrive later, you must have a good talk with them. Although Ying'er is not your biological son, you are his legal mother. In the future, when he becomes successful, I will make him take good care of you!"

"My lord, I understand. However..."

She glanced at Shen Xuan and Li Chang'an, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke up.

"Husband, why don't you and Ying'er go to the next private room first? I'll come find you after I've spoken with Fairy Qin and Elder Lü."

"What kind of talk is that! I didn't look down on you, but you're looking down on me!"

Yu Jianrong flew into a rage: "Zhao Sujin, let me tell you. If you refuse to help Ying'er, I'll give you a divorce, send you away from the Yu family, and leave you to fend for yourself!"

Zhao Sujin forced a smile: "Husband, I will definitely help Ying'er. Fairy Qin has always been aloof and unwilling to deal with outsiders."

"She doesn't know you. I'm afraid you might say something carelessly and upset her, which could ruin Ying'er's plans!"

"As long as you're willing to put in the effort, how could it not be possible! Sixty years of friendship as classmates, what's such a small matter!"

Yu Jianrong picked up his wine glass and drank several cups of the spirit wine in a row, his face turning red.

"As expected of the best private room in Juxianlou. Even the spirit wine is Pear Blossom Intoxication, which sells for ten spirit stones a pot outside!"

From beginning to end, he never even glanced at Shen Xuan and Li Chang'an.

Shen Xuan found it amusing.

Such people are spoiled at home, like frogs in a well, with extremely limited horizons.

The cultivation world is strictly hierarchical.

Sect elders are of such noble status, how could they be treated as equals with rogue cultivators like them!

The ten-year reunion was initiated by Lü Zhengying out of consideration for Qin Yuehan.

How could I possibly pay any attention to someone like Yu Jiancheng!

He even became an apprentice!
The bond between master and disciple is extremely deep, and the cause and effect are complex.

Let alone Qin Yuehan and Lü Zhengying, they won't be taking on any disciples for the time being.

Even when accepting apprentices, they are carefully selected, with only those who share their temperament and are willing to inherit their mantle and carry on their legacy.

Do they really think that sect elders and disciples are as common as cabbages, and that any child with a mid-grade spiritual root can become their disciple?
Shen Xuan naturally couldn't be bothered with other people's family affairs.

After a while, the door to the private room opened again.

Wang Fugui nodded and bowed as he led the way, pulling out a seat.

Qin Yuehan, dressed in a moon-white fairy dress, arrived lightly, stepping on a beam of light.

With eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like cold stars, a face like the bright moon, and skin like white snow, she resembled a fairy untouched by worldly affairs, possessing a naturally aloof and proud temperament.
