A month later, the elders of the Feng family finally left, but the look in their eyes when they left was very complicated.

However, Lu Changfeng was concerned about something else at the moment.

"Hey, Manager Su, Su Qingzhu, what are you doing here?"

On the way, Lu Changfeng received a message from Zhen Ji and was about to buy her something when he unexpectedly spotted Su Ziyuan and Su Qingzhu at a roadside stall.

Although they were Foundation Establishment cultivators, they sat by the roadside eating barbecue skewers just like ordinary people.

Although it looks the same as before, the feeling is completely different.

She used to be a successful businesswoman, always working or on her way to work. Now she seems to have returned to the image of a normal female nun, as if she has put down her burdens.

Upon seeing Lu Changfeng, Su Qingzhu was not surprised and immediately greeted him with a smile, inviting him to sit down.

"Hahaha, you slacker, come sit down, come sit down!"

After sitting down, she looked at Lu Changfeng with a strange smile.

"Hehehe, not bad, you look pretty much the same as before!"

"Seeing you like this makes me feel relieved!"

After speaking, he looked at Lu Changfeng with a kind expression.

That's right, it's kind and gentle, like the kind of kindness a grandmother has for her grandson, just like she always has.

Realizing this, Lu Changfeng quickly interrupted.

Just kidding, it's fine for friends to just look at each other, how can you give yourself a super seniority!

"Alright, alright, something's off about your eyes!"

"But what's going on with you guys? Didn't you say you failed in your attack on the eight major merchant families and then your whole family fled? Why are you suddenly back in Tianxing City?"

"Now that you're back, the store manager position is yours again!"

"This store manager job is exhausting and doesn't even pay much. I quit a long time ago!"

Lu Changfeng's words were not wrong. After all, as the store manager, although he had the right to share in the profits, it also meant trouble. If he were to go back to the previous level of receiving a fixed salary, he could run away at any time with a clear conscience.

However, Su Qingzhu glanced at Su Ziyuan, and only after seeing her nod did she explain,

"Oh dear, it seems we can't give it to the young lady, manager!"

"Our Su family is indeed similar to what you know. We failed to break into the Eight Great Families and suffered heavy casualties. However, because of you, the Gao family's conspiracy was exposed."

"The families that were originally hunting down my Su family abandoned their pursuit and instead went to deal with the Gao family. As a result, the remaining members of the Su family came to Tianxing City and became part of the Tianxing Sect!"

"But ultimately, the Su family still has to thank you for this. We only learned the whole story from that sycophantic Feng!"

"I never imagined that a little kid from back then would have such formidable strength!"

"That was a Golden Core cultivator at the peak of his cultivation, and you killed him with a single sword strike!"

Then, Su Qingzhu, Su Ziyuan, and Su Qingmei all looked at Lu Changfeng with curiosity.

She used to think that her young lady was also a genius, but she was limited by her family, so she was just not famous like the geniuses of the new era.

But now it seems that the gap between the two sides is even greater than the distance between Foundation Establishment cultivators and mortals.

Faced with Su Qingzhu's praise, Lu Changfeng's lips curled up into a wide smile.

"Since you're going to thank me, let's get practical. Let's look at your legs first!"

Su Qingzhu was immediately filled with question marks, followed by a look that said, "Are you kidding me?"

"Get out of here! Who comes up here looking at this right away!"

At the same time, I added in my mind, "It's not impossible, but it has to be somewhere where there are no people!"

Lu Changfeng wasn't too angry about being rejected; instead, he inquired about the Su family's future plans.

"So what are you planning to do in Tianxing City now?"

After saying that, he grabbed a skewer and started eating, completely ignoring Su Qingzhu's gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Su Ziyuan, who had been quietly eating her skewers, wiped her mouth and then began to explain.

"I know a little about that. Because we joined the Tianxing Sect, and because we operate the Luoyun Shopping Mall, our Su family will also be opening a shopping mall with the sect's support!"

"It should be Su's Department Store! Then we'll be going head-to-head with Luoyun Chamber of Commerce!"

"How about it? Why don't you quit your job and come work for us?"

After speaking, she looked at Lu Changfeng with anticipation. It's no wonder she looked like that, mainly because the Luoyun Chamber of Commerce has become very competitive after a series of reforms by Lu Changfeng.

Su's Department Store can only grow and expand if he personally takes charge.

But Lu Changfeng ultimately shook his head and refused.

"Well, things are going pretty well at Luoyun Shopping Mall!"

"However, your Su family really got lucky joining the Heavenly Star Sect. The Heavenly Star Sect is not as simple as you think!"

He hadn't originally intended to bring this up, but after thinking about it, he still offered a reminder.

You should know that the sect leaders are all at the Nascent Soul stage now, and there are also Void Refinement stage cultivators in the sect.

Ordinary sects don't have such a strong foundation.

But Su Ziyuan didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a polite remark from Lu Changfeng.

After saying goodbye to Su Ziyuan, Lu Changfeng began his journey home.

On an August evening, the fiery red sunset stretched across the sky, making it seem as if the sky was on fire, but Lu Changfeng soon noticed a problem.

"Hey, what's with the construction going on at the entrance?"

Under normal circumstances, the area outside the Azure Dragon Gate is mostly wasteland, since you can fly on your sword as soon as you step out of the gate.

But now, besides the Lu's Bus Station at the entrance, there are numerous construction sites across the street from the bus station.

After eavesdropping for a bit, I learned that these were some distant relatives of the new disciples. They couldn't afford to live in Tianxing City, but it was too dangerous outside the city, so they built their houses right at the sect's gate.

This place is free and safe, so it turned out like this.

Seeing this scene, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

"Wow, so the Third Ring Road is under construction!"

Although he had always thought about things like the Third Ring Road, he was filled with emotion when construction actually started.

However, this is also a good thing, at least it means that the value of my house has increased.

Although with my current income, which is over two million yuan a year just from salary and bonuses, the rent of ten or twenty thousand yuan is negligible.

But this was the job he had always wanted to do, so even though the income was meager, he was still very happy.

However, upon entering the sect and observing carefully, it was discovered that the original new disciples had already filled the side closest to the Azure Dragon Gate, and now they were beginning to expand towards the other two sides.

Over the next few days, he visited other places to see what other changes had occurred.

But unexpectedly, the other three gates are no exception. Even the West Gate, which is closer to the sea, is now seeing a lot of people building houses there, making it even more popular than the South and North Gates.

The main reasons are safety and beautiful scenery.

Cultivators can simply fly on their swords to enjoy the scenery, but for these mortals, their travel distance is very short. If it weren't for the passenger station, they wouldn't even come here.

Suddenly he noticed the group of people building houses, or more precisely, Old Deng among them.

"Hey, what's old Deng doing? Doesn't he love driving? Why is he building a house here?"

He immediately landed next to Old Deng.

"Hey, Old Deng, what are you doing?"
