The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

Thinking of this, he slowly sat up.

"Are you sure that half of what's in the secret realm will be mine, and that you won't compete with me for anything I want?"

Li Mingfei nodded repeatedly. Although he knew that doing so would reduce his profits, with Lu Changfeng by his side, at least his safety was not a problem.

"I'm sure!"

Lu Changfeng had no objection to this and immediately agreed.

"Okay, it's decided then!"

"By the way, do you know what's inside this secret realm?"

Li Mingfei quickly shared all the information he knew.

The place we went to this time was called a secret realm, but it was not actually an independent space. It was more like a dangerous place. Such dangerous places are usually shrouded in poisonous fog and are normally impossible to enter. Occasionally, they can be entered for other reasons.

The entrance to the secret realm that Li Mingfei discovered was occupied by a fully-formed demon beast, which is why he was looking for him.

Lu Changfeng didn't feel anything about this. After all, it's normal to think of yourself first when it comes to good things. Only when you can't have them yourself will you seek cooperation with others.

"Yes, I have a pretty good understanding of the situation, but I've already made it clear beforehand that if I can't beat them, I really will run away!"

"Then everyone's on their own!"

Li Mingfei nodded repeatedly.

"Don't worry, I'm not the idiot I was when I first entered the world of cultivation anymore."

After letting Li Mingfei leave, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but become excited.

Although he prefers a life of effortless growth due to his cheat-like abilities, he also enjoys a bit of adventure occasionally to add variety to his life.

However, it's already mid-August, and September is just around the corner. That will mark the sixth great upheaval in the world, and there will definitely be plenty of good things then.

But I still need to make arrangements for things at the inn.

I'm the assistant store manager now, so I can just hand over the work to Su Qingzhu. But Li Mingfei's position is too important, and I don't know how long he'll be gone, so we need someone to fill in for him!

Lu Changfeng already had a candidate in mind for this replacement.

Soon Xie Duo was summoned to Lu Changfeng's office. Compared to her early days as a young girl in the mall, she was now sixteen years old and, being a cultivator, had already developed a youthful appearance.

"Brother Lu, I'm here!"

Lu Changfeng nodded in agreement.

"sit!"

After Xie Duo sat down, Lu Changfeng finally spoke.

"I called you here today because I need to talk to you about something!"

"Li Mingfei and I will be going out for a while in about two weeks. The timing is uncertain. You can delegate my work to the second manager, and Li Mingfei's work will be yours!"

"Interested in taking on this task? I'll pay you double."

Although I can't promote Xie Duo's employee level, doubling her salary is still very easy.

Upon hearing this, Xie Duo immediately became excited.

Now that more and more geniuses from the sect are overtaking her, she's starting to get anxious.

However, as a cultivator born in the old era, her aptitude was inherently inferior to that of the new generation, so if she wanted to quickly improve her cultivation, she could only use higher-grade pills.

Now that she's heard about double pay, who wouldn't be happy? You have to understand, she's a level one employee now, and double pay means an extra 500 spirit stones, which is no small amount.

"Really? That's great!"

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, I guarantee I'll manage the inn perfectly during this time!"

Lu Changfeng still has a very high opinion of Xie Duo.

"Okay, during this time you should learn from Li Mingfei. If you have any questions, just ask!"

Then he waved for her to leave first.

He then approached Su Qingzhu and explained his situation.

"What? You're going to the secret realm?"

At this moment, Su Qingzhu looked at Lu Changfeng with a strange expression, clearly unable to understand the reason for doing so.

"You earn 10,000 spirit stones a month now. With that kind of salary, what can't you buy in a shopping mall? Why do you insist on going to the secret realm?"

"And it's a Qi Refining stage secret realm at that, isn't this just a complete waste of time?"

"If you want to go out and have fun, I can give you a few days off!"

In Su Qingzhu's view, Lu Changfeng's high salary was more than enough to buy everything he needed for cultivation, with a considerable surplus.

After all, how expensive can items from the Qi Refining stage really be?

With his salary, he could easily afford to buy pills for the Foundation Establishment stage!

However, Lu Changfeng simply shrugged.

"What are you talking about?! I'm a genius, so this is called training! Don't you know the rules?!"

Although going out on your own is really similar to just having fun, going out to gain experience sounds so cool!

It's like being a deliveryman before time travel. If you just say "deliveryman," people will only reply with "oh." But if you say "city-wide material dispatch executive officer," doesn't that sound much more impressive?

Su Qingzhu's lips twitched at Lu Changfeng's sophistry.

"Alright, alright, how's the staffing arrangement? Should I transfer a few people from the mall?"

Lu Changfeng repeatedly refused, saying, "Are you kidding me? The mall's employees all used to work for Duan Yu. How good could the merchandise be if they worked for him?"

Although Duan Yuliang fired a large number of people after his downfall, he didn't want people from the shopping mall to pollute the inn's working environment.

"Never mind, I've already made arrangements!"

"I'll leave my work to you for now. As for Li Mingfei's side, I've already had Xie Duo learn from him. While she might not be as good as Li Mingfei at handling things, she won't be too far behind!"

Even if Xie Duo doesn't do a good job, there are only five employees in the inn. How much trouble can she cause?

"Alright, since you've made the arrangements, I won't say any more. Feel free to contact me if you need any help!"

As someone who helped her young lady eliminate her rivals, and given that they had a good relationship in private, she had a high opinion of Lu Changfeng.

Having resolved these matters, Lu Changfeng hummed a little tune as he prepared to take the three children home.

"Zhen Ji,"

"Hey hey hey! Little stinky baby, stinky baby, time to go home!"

Pfft!

Upon hearing Lu Changfeng call out to the children, Li Mingfei and the others nearby burst into laughter.

After laughing for a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask,

"Um, Brother Lu, isn't that way of addressing me a little... inappropriate?"

"If your mom finds out, you're going to get a beating!"

Lu Changfeng gave this a wicked smile.

"What's there to be afraid of? That's what I've called them since we were kids!"

"And even if my mom finds out, what can she do? She can't hit me, can she!"

Since yesterday, Mom and Dad have been going to each of our homes to apologize. They're not around, so I'm invincible and can call them whatever I want!

I'm a grown man, and I shed tears because of these two bastards. They have to pay the price!

quack quack!

Suddenly he sensed a murderous aura coming from behind him.

Hey, someone dares to breathe on you? Looks like you can't tell the difference between the king and the queen!

However, upon turning his head, his expression immediately changed to a smile.

"Ahem, Mom, weren't you off running errands with Dad? What are you doing here?"

Yes, standing behind him were Lu Yuange and Zhuge Feng.
