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

No one knows how the two talked later, but Mei Wu gave all the spirit stones he had to the other party, and the two parted ways peacefully.

Perhaps unable to bear the strange looks from his colleagues, or for some other reason, he resigned the next day and disappeared without a trace.

However, the discussion about him has never subsided.

Everyone is speculating about who the other ship Mei Wu is on is.

However, this news was quickly overshadowed by another piece of news.

It turns out that among the news articles published on the jade slip these past few days, there was an unexpected picture of Su Ziyuan chatting happily with an elder of the Heavenly Star Sect's Pill Pavilion.

This has led all the employees to discuss whether this means that Luoyun Shopping Mall will no longer be targeted by local forces.

Although they know that as long as they don't do anything reckless, their safety should be fine, the negative public opinion environment is putting them under a lot of psychological pressure.

Now things are much better. If I succeed in the end, I will not only be able to earn a high salary, but I will also no longer have to be so careful.

So after learning about this, everyone was discussing it privately.

Unfortunately, after seven or eight days without any news, they started to shift the topic to which disciple had broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage and whose child had been found to have spiritual roots.

After all, this is a world of cultivation, and breakthroughs in cultivation and spiritual roots are what most people care about.

As dusk approached, Lu Changfeng decisively began packing his things.

Just as it was time to leave work, he waved to Xie Zhixing.

"Uncle Xie, I'm off work!"

After saying that, he turned and left without the slightest hint of looking back.

Watching his retreating figure, Xie Zhixing almost burst into tears.

Damn it, I knew he shouldn't have taken this position as butler. Not only does he have no power, but he also has to attend meetings after get off work!

Not only do we have to report how much stock we've sold every day, but sometimes we also have to put up with the boss being late.

If that were all, it would be fine, since his salary as acting deacon was 500 spirit stones per month. But as Lu Changfeng became a first-class employee, his salary became the same as his.

Now look what's happened! The salary is the same, but I have to do even more work. Who can stand that?!

But there was no other way. In order to get rid of this agent as soon as possible, he could only go to the third floor for a meeting with tears in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Lu Changfeng, carrying his teacup and humming a tune, was pondering which restaurant to choose when he suddenly spotted Lu Yuange at the door.

Upon seeing Lao Deng return, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but become excited.

There was no way around it. Now that they were back, it meant that the Foundation Establishment process had gone smoothly. From now on, he could be considered a second-generation immortal. How could he not be happy?

However, when he got closer, he found that Old Deng's face did not show any joy at all. Instead, his face was distorted, as if he had eaten shit.

Upon seeing this, Lu Changfeng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that his mother had failed to reach the Foundation Establishment stage?

But that doesn't make sense. If you really failed, you shouldn't have this expression that looks like you've eaten shit!

He immediately moved closer to Lu Yuange.

"Old Deng, why do you look like you've eaten shit?"

Upon seeing that it was her own child, Lu Yuange continued to complain.

"Eating shit would be the least of your worries; actually, your mom is at home making dinner!"

"And you even want me to pick you up so we can go home for dinner!"

hiss!

Upon hearing this truth, Lu Changfeng gasped in shock.

"No wonder!"

There's nothing I can do. My mom is good at everything, except cooking. If she says she'll cook, she'll only chop some vegetables and leave the rest to Lu Yuange.

Old Deng's words today definitely included the subsequent procedures.

If you're lucky, at most you'll get charcoal, which is still edible. But if you're unlucky, the worst time was when Old Deng was unconscious for three days. At that time, his cultivation level was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Since that's the case, we have to find another way. He smiled mysteriously and then suggested,

"Old Deng, how about we eat out and then bring some back for Mom?"

"Just say you were already eating when you found me!"

Lu Yuange's eyes lit up when he heard about the plan.

Great plan! A new brain is really useful; it can even come up with a solution like this.

"Hey, not bad, kid. Shall we go?"

"Let's go!"

The two stopped at a roadside barbecue stall, arm in arm.

At this moment, the barbecue stall owner's hands were constantly flying, and the skewers in his hands were constantly emitting an enticing aroma under the flickering flames. Although there was no one at the vegetable cutting area next to him, two cleavers were constantly chopping vegetables and mincing meat.

At the tables behind them, many cultivators and mortals were already seated, eating and drinking together, and occasionally singing loudly because they were having a good time, without any distinction between immortals and mortals.

"This one will do."

"OK!"

Lu Changfeng immediately began ordering food.

"Street vendor, give me 20 skewers of grilled beef, 10 chicken legs, 10 chicken wings, and what are those yellow slices?"

He casually mentioned a few types of grilled skewers, but suddenly he became interested in the yellow skewer in the far corner.

Hearing the visitor's curiosity, the owner continued sprinkling seasoning on the skewers while explaining the process.

"Oh! That's the shark fin from a golden fish that I specially got for you. It's crispy and tastes really good. Want some?"

After only a 0.2-second moment of thought, Lu Changfeng decisively agreed.

"Okay, twenty skewers of this, please. And remember to add extra chili! And another serving of this, I'll take it to go!"

"Alright, guests, it'll cost you one spirit stone. Please find a seat, and the skewers will be ready soon! If you'd like some tea or juice, feel free to fill your glass in the bucket next to us—it's free."

After paying with spirit stones, the two took the complimentary tea and sat down at an empty table.

Soon a plate of grilled skewers was placed in front of him.

"Guest, your skewers are all ready. Enjoy!"

Faced with the overwhelming fragrance, the two immediately started showing off.

As the golden shark fin crackled in his mouth, Lu Changfeng nodded in satisfaction.

These golden shark fin skewers taste pretty good, somewhat like the crispy bone sausages sold on the roadside before the time travel, only with a richer meaty flavor.

Looking up, I saw Old Deng holding several skewers in each hand, his mouth bulging.

In just a few bites, the skewers in his hand were reduced to sticks, and then he grabbed the plate again.

Seeing this, Lu Changfeng was furious.

"Damn it, I paid for these skewers with spirit stones, so eat them slowly!"

"Ha, there are no fathers and sons at the dinner table; whoever grabs it first gets it!"

The two began frantically fighting over the food.

This scene drew gasps of amazement from the surrounding diners, and the sight of the two even boosted the owner's business considerably.

Suddenly, Lu Changfeng's communication jade slip vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was a message from his mother. As he channeled spiritual energy into it, her voice immediately came through.

"Son, your dad and I are back. Mom will be cooking dinner tonight, so hurry home after get off work!"

"By the way, your dad said he'd pick you up from get off work, but we haven't heard from him yet! We'll see each other and come back together!"

Hearing this voice, Lu Yuange raised an eyebrow at him.

"Go back to her as planned, but whatever you do, don't let him find out!"

He finished speaking with a smug look on his face, but he didn't notice Zhuge Feng standing behind him!
