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

"Hey, old Deng, all I did was say a few words to you, right?"

"Why are you so angry!"

"As a grown man, stand up straight!"

However, both Mom and my older sister looked disgusted at Lu Changfeng's words of comfort.

"Alright, alright, stop making things worse!"

The two then looked at Lu Yuange with amusement.

"Old Lu, you're a grown man, and this brat just blurts out a few words and you get all the wrong ideas. Don't you know how to verify things?"

"Is that communication jade slip just gathering dust?"

The older woman next to him also looked at Lao Deng with curiosity.

"Old Deng, can you tell me what you were thinking just now? You were acting like you were bravely going to your death."

"And they even said things like 'I love you all'!"

Old Deng's face immediately turned bright red with embarrassment.

"Stop asking, please stop asking, I'm about to break down!"

Seeing Old Deng's state, the group exchanged glances, and then Lu Changfeng, Lu Rou, and the three children silently left Old Deng's bedroom, leaving only Old Deng and Zhuge Feng present.

"Alright, now that the children are gone, can you tell me what you were thinking back then?"

It's no wonder Zhuge Feng was curious. The key question is, who was Lu Yuange before? While the claim that he was invincible among Qi Refining cultivators is certainly an exaggeration, his swordsmanship was unmatched by most Qi Refining cultivators.

How many years have passed, and he's turned out like this!

Upon hearing this, Old Deng let out a long sigh.

"Hey, is this my fault?"

"None of you were in the room at the time. That brat said he had successfully inscribed it, but my body couldn't handle the effects of the early-stage Nascent Soul essence blood, so I would become neither human, nor tortoise, nor dragon, and I wouldn't have any consciousness. I only had one hour left!"

"Xiaorou also experienced a conflict with the medication before, so this makes sense. I just thought it was my son's intention, and it wasn't a failure, but rather that my constitution is too weak to handle it!"

"Didn't I misunderstand?"

Hearing this, Zhuge Feng finally understood the situation at the time.

"So you thought you only had one hour left before saying that?"

Lu Yuange nodded.

"Yeah, so honey, you understand me, right?"

He looked at Zhuge Feng with anticipation as he spoke, but the next second Zhuge Feng burst out laughing, clutching her stomach.

"Hahahaha, hahahaha!"

Lu Yuange's face immediately turned red.

"Wife, why are you making fun of me too!"

However, Zhuge Feng shook his head.

"I'm not the only one laughing at you, look at your chest!"

Lu Yuange looked down and saw that the two turtle patterns on his chest were also laughing silently. Although there was no sound, Lu Yuange felt humiliated.

But he soon discovered the problem.

"Holy crap, kid, come in here right now, those two turtles are alive!"

Hearing the noise, the people who had been eavesdropping outside the door came in with smiles.

Upon seeing the two little turtles on Lu Yuange's body, he chuckled and began to explain.

"Haha, Old Deng, don't worry, this is normal!"

"Because of the battle runes infused with the essence of a sea dragon in the early stages of the Nascent Soul realm, they not only survived, but their effectiveness was also enhanced!"

"Now you can enjoy the benefits of the next stage ahead of time. For example, your lifespan increase was originally 40% during the Foundation Establishment stage, but now it's 60%. The same goes for defense!"

"Surprised? Unexpected?"

Everyone was shocked.

A 60% increase in lifespan. Keep in mind that the Foundation Establishment stage has a lifespan of 200 years, so 60% is 120 years. That's an extra 120 years out of nowhere!

Moreover, this effect is not limited to the Foundation Establishment stage, but can continue to be effective up to the Nascent Soul stage.

Immediately, everyone looked at Lu Changfeng.

What is the purpose of cultivating immortality? Isn't it simply to achieve immortality?

Moreover, this is a glorious era for the immortal path; if their lifespan were longer, their chances of breaking through would be even greater.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Lu Changfeng shook the jade bottle in his hand.

"Don't worry, I'm very well prepared!"

"However, compared to Old Deng, the others can only get one tattoo,"

"The Longevity Turtle's maximum potential is limited to the two thousand years of the Nascent Soul stage. Even if I advance again, the increase through the Longevity Turtle will only be that much, unless I can comprehend it again and further enhance my battle runes!"

"Similarly, the tortoise shell provides five times the defense upon reaching the Nascent Soul stage."

"Do you think it should be a patterned tortoise or a shelled tortoise?"

As expected, both Mom and my older sister chose to get longevity tortoise tattoos, while the three little ones haven't cultivated yet, so they can't get battle tattoos yet.

Because they had crossed the river by feeling for Lao Deng, their drawings were much simpler.

In less than ten minutes, the two of them had a moving turtle tattoo on their bodies.

After resolving Lao Deng's matter, Lu Changfeng went back to work.

He thought nothing more would happen, until June when Feng Ninglu found him.

"I've been feeling a bit off lately, so I did some research, and guess what I found?"

Seeing her like this, Lu Changfeng didn't pay much attention at first, after all, a lot can happen in the world these days.

There are just so many news articles I subscribe to every day that I can't possibly read them all.

Now, when he looks at the news jade slip, he has the illusion of scrolling through short videos.

"What did you discover?"

It was just a casual excuse she used to chat, but it turned out to be a really big problem.

"The Gao family has sent people!"

Lu Changfeng immediately put down the news jade slip in his hand and looked at Feng Ninglu.

"Sister Lu, what are the Gao family doing here? They can't possibly be taking over Manager Su's position!"

He had only meant it as a joke, but Feng Ninglu simply looked at him without saying a word.

This time, Lu Changfeng was completely shocked.

It's not that he's afraid of the Gao family; he's now a Golden Core stage expert, and those above the Nascent Soul stage wouldn't dare to make a move, because anyone who would could't defeat him.

But what does this message mean?

"What's going on? Is he really going to take over Manager Su's position?" Lu Changfeng asked in a low voice.

However, Feng Ninglu simply shook her head.

"The reason for their arrival is still unclear. All we know is that they are led by the third young master of the Gao family, whose cultivation is at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, and they have also brought an elder at the late Golden Core stage!"

"Although I don't know why they came, they definitely don't have good intentions!"

"But you know the situation in our mall; the supplies for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators and above are transferred from headquarters. I can handle that!"

"But the pills on the first floor aren't very effective, and you forgot, your buddy's contract is in the hands of the Gao family!"

"If they want to make a move, they'll have to start from here!"

"So we'd better be prepared!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng nodded.

Although this is just her guess, it is indeed a point that could be explored.

"Yes, thank you for reminding me, Sister Lu. I'll definitely help you if you need it in the future!"

Feng Ninglu immediately became interested.

"Shall we have a fight?"

Lu Changfeng immediately showed a look of disgust.

"Sister Lu, you've failed so many times, haven't you learned your lesson? I'm a genius, you can't beat me!"

"Let's go!"
