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

"Wow, not bad, looks like your dad's taken over!"

He had previously heard Li Mingfei say that his father was going against the emperor, but he never expected that he would become the regent. This was quite an improvement.

Hearing Lu Changfeng say that, Li Mingfei was quite pleased with himself.

"Hehehe, that's right, with my financial support, my dad's business is booming!"

"But I've heard the emperor isn't up to any good; he's definitely up to something!"

Lu Changfeng nodded as well.

He always favored those he knew over strangers, and compared to the unfamiliar Emperor of Great Zhou, he was more inclined to side with Li Mingfei.

However, Li Bing, who was sitting to the side, had a strange expression on his face.

Just then, Li Mingfei seemed to remember something, and looked at Li Bing.

"Brother Bing, why do you suddenly want to open a shop in Da Zhou?"

Although the mall is opening branches, it doesn't really expect these people to earn spirit stones. It's just to fill all the positions so that the headquarters can allocate Golden Core level resources.

In addition, the shopping malls they were assigned to could only sell items from the Qi Refining stage, which gave them a great deal of freedom; at least they could choose the location of the shopping malls themselves.

Li Mingfei has never been to Da Zhou, so why would he suddenly choose that place to open a shop?

Li Mingfei's expression immediately became even stranger, but after hesitating for a long time, he finally told the truth.

"Um, actually, it was a senior eunuch from the Great Zhou royal family who invited me to open a shop in the capital! He said he'd give me a large sum of spirit stones every month."

"You won't have to do anything then, just borrow my name!"

"How about I open the shop in a different location now?"

For Li Bing, he already had the Foundation Establishment Pill, so all he needed to do next was cultivate step by step.

Although they gave up the spirit stones promised by the Emperor of Great Zhou, they were just some spirit stones, which were nothing compared to Lu Changfeng!

But upon hearing Li Bing's words, both Lu Changfeng and Li Mingfei fell silent.

Good heavens, he exclaimed, "Good heavens!"

Just now, Li Mingfei was saying that the royal family wasn't up to any good, but then he found out that the royal family's "good news" actually came from Li Bing.

This is clearly an attempt to use Li Bing's name to target Li Mingfei's father.

It's fortunate that we spoke up today, otherwise, even if things were explained clearly in the future, there would still be resentment between us.

Lu Changfeng immediately looked at Li Mingfei.

"Golden Chicken, this matter is entirely up to you!"

"Li Bing didn't know before that the Great Zhou was now your father's territory. This was an accident."

Li Mingfei nodded, clearly knowing that Li Bing wasn't to blame. After all, he had kept a low profile since causing trouble, so it was normal for Li Bing not to know much about the family situation.

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, I know. It's just a bit like fate playing tricks on us!"

Then he looked at Li Bing beside him.

"Brother Bing, don't worry, no matter what, we'll always be friends!"

"Don't worry, what the Emperor can give you, my father can give you too, and double that! But we'll have to wait a few days to discuss the specifics with him!"

Li Mingfei saw it clearly; it was just some spirit stones. His father had far more spirit stones than the emperor.

But no matter what, giving Li Bing double the spirit stones is definitely not a loss!

Hearing Li Mingfei's assurance, Li Bing breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had already decided that he could accept earning less, who would be willing to lose spirit stones if he could earn them!

"Okay, the shopping mall will send a construction team to Da Zhou in three days to survey and find a suitable location for the construction site."

"OK!"

After the two sides reached an agreement, the gathering came to an end.

Two days later, Li Mingfei finally came to Lu Changfeng's office to tell him about it.

It is said that Li Mingfei's father planned to use this incident to set a trap for the Great Zhou royal family.

Both sides have agreed on a series of plans and are now just waiting for the Great Zhou royal family to take the bait!

Upon learning this, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but laugh.

Why did the Great Zhou royal family have to choose Li Bing of all people?

However, upon closer reflection, it's understandable. The Great Zhou royal family sounds powerful, but in reality, they've been cornered by Li Mingfei's father, and the only way to resist them is to seek external help.

Go find the Heavenly Star Sect; they won't bother with you.

If we seek help from local forces, we might end up losing ourselves if we deal with the Prince of Jin. After all, there are quite a few ordinary people among the local forces, and controlling a country is a good option right now.

At this time, Li Bing was noticed by them. He was backed by a Nascent Soul level power, but he was not from a big family. As long as he was properly bribed, it would be a good choice to use his influence to his advantage.

But unfortunately, fate played a cruel trick on us!

A few days later, Li Bing led the mall's construction team to Da Zhou.

A few days later, Li Mingfei came looking for him.

"Brother Lu, I need to ask for leave to go back to my hometown! It'll probably be for quite a while!"

"However, I've already arranged for Xie Duo to take my place!"

He nodded upon hearing this.

"Alright! Looks like you'll have to go back and 'go head-to-head' with Li Bing!"

Hearing him say that, Li Mingfei also laughed.

"Hehehe, isn't this exactly what the royal family wants to see?"

"As the saying goes, you have to seize the opportunity when it comes. My dad even said he wouldn't interfere if they were content to be mascots!"

"But once you've tasted power, you can't let it go!"

"If they can't seize the opportunity, then destruction awaits them!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng also sighed.

"really,"

"By the way, there's a lot going on at the inn. You're a real gem; without you, I wouldn't be able to slack off properly!"

"So come back early when you're done!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingfei's lips twitched involuntarily.

Good grief, you just said it so openly?

Never mind, that's not important.

The next morning, Lu Changfeng came out early to see Li Mingfei off.

Although we were both flying on swords and I didn't need to bring two bottles of drinks for the journey, parting was still a bit bittersweet.

When he was a teenager, he was always surrounded by many people, including Li Ming, Wang Mang, Li Bing, Li Mingfei, and a little further back, Ye Tian, ​​Wei Zisong, and so on.

But as they grew up, they gradually drifted apart from each other because of their own goals.

For cultivation, for the family, for resources, for the future, and so on.

He couldn't stop it, and there was no way to stop it!

Because that's life!

However, there is some good news as well.

After several months of gestation, the eggshell encasing my older sister has finally shown some signs of life.

This made Lu Yuange, who was a spirit bound to an egg, burst into tears of joy.

God knows what he went through in the past two months; every time he opened his eyes, all he saw was a big white egg.

We can't go out to play, and we can't have fun.

It's awful!

Whoosh!

Suddenly the large white egg in the living room moved.

Lu Yuange's face lit up with surprise.

"It's moving, honey, our daughter is moving!"

"See that? See that?"

As he spoke, Lao Deng grabbed Zhuge Feng's shoulders and shook him violently, which showed that Lao Deng had indeed been suppressing his feelings for too long.

Unfortunately, he was met with his mother's fist instead.

With a loud thud, Old Deng was hanging from the ceiling.

Just then, a slight clicking sound rang out.

Everyone was on tenterhooks at that moment.

Because they all knew that their older sister was about to hatch!
