Chapter 789: Chapter 291: Foundation Establishment Celebration, Zhao Qingqing’s Initiative_2

The dwelling wasn’t large, covering only about seven or eight acres.

But it had everything one needed: a main courtyard, quiet rooms, gardens, ponds, spirit fields, a medicinal herb garden, and a beast pen.

At this moment, the main hall was filled with a gathering of cultivators.

Most of them were Foundation Establishment Cultivators, with only a few Energy Refining Cultivators present.

Although it was a minor celebration for the Foundation Establishment, within Qingyun Sect, Foundation Establishment Cultivators still held some weight, considered as part of the middle hierarchy.

Therefore, whenever someone broke through to Foundation Establishment, many fellow sect members and friends would come to offer congratulations and network.

...

Especially for a female cultivator like Zhao Qingqing, who was skilled in the botany and pharmacology of spirit plants and had a Vegbody suitable for logistical support, many came with ulterior motives.

The moment the three of them walked into the hall, many eyes landed straight on them.

Hong Yi’s face turned pale, his body felt heavy, and he nearly collapsed to the ground.

There were more than ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the room.

Although they weren’t deliberately exuding their Foundation Establishment spiritual pressure, they didn’t completely suppress it either.

As a result, when such gazes converged, it posed a huge pressure for an ordinary Energy Refining Cultivator.

Lu Changsheng’s body exuded an invisible spiritual pressure, which made Hong Yi relax all over.

“This is my good friend, Lu Changsheng of Bi Lake Mountain.”

“This is my good friend, Hong Yi.”

“Lu Daoist, Hong Daoist, please take a seat. These are all my fellow sect brothers and sisters, no need to be polite.”

Seeing this, Zhao Qingqing immediately introduced them out loud to ease the awkwardness.

“Bi Lake Mountain, Lu Changsheng!?”

“He is indeed the Lu Mountain Lord of Bi Lake Mountain, so very handsome!”

“I’ve heard that this Mountain Master of Bi Lake Mountain is incomparably handsome, and it truly isn’t an undeserved reputation.”

Once Zhao Qingqing introduced him, the crowd in the hall turned their attention to Lu Changsheng.

Although they were disciples of Qingyun Sect,

the name of Bi Lake Mountain Master, Lu Changsheng, was not unfamiliar to them.

Whether it was his defeat of the Yu Family’s three Foundation Establishment Cultivators or the suppression of Xiahou Monie, as well as the slaying of six Robber Cultivators during the Red Leaf Valley Market incident years ago, his reputation had greatly risen.

“I, Liu Ruyan, have long heard of Mountain Lord Lu’s great name. It is a fortune to meet you today, so I’d like to honor Mountain Lord Lu with a toast,” said a buxom woman in a yellow dress, picking up a cup of spiritual wine and greeting Lu Changsheng with a smile.

“I am Fang Hong, and I have seen Lu Daoist.”

“I am Wu Jiujiu, and I have seen Lu Daoist.”

“I am…”

Several cultivators in the hall warmly greeted Lu Changsheng.

Although as disciples of the Immortal Sects, they usually did not hold Loose Cultivators and small Family forces in high regard,

someone like Lu Changsheng, who had shown remarkable combat abilities and was also a Second-tier Top-Level Talisman Master, was naturally someone they were very willing to make connections with.

“Lu Daoist, Hong Daoist.”

Han Lin was also there to attend the celebration, and he greeted Lu Changsheng and Hong Yi.

“Heh, Han Daoist.”

Hong Yi cupped his hands in salute towards Han Lin and took a seat next to him.

He knew gatherings like this were out of his world.

Not all Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators were like Lu Changsheng, who remembered old friendships and were willing to make connections with him.

“Heh, everyone is too kind.”

Lu Changsheng, under the enthusiastic and proactive greetings of the others, quickly became integrated into the group.

He was somewhat surprised that Xiao Xiyue had not come.

Though Xiao Xiyue and Zhao Qingqing weren’t particularly close, such a small Foundation Establishment celebration would typically warrant her congratulations.

Through asking around, he found out that due to the matter with Xiahou Monie, Xiao Xiyue had gone out on a mission.

While drinking and chatting with everyone, Lu Changsheng noticed a plump cultivator casting envious glances at him from time to time.

After paying a bit more attention, he learned the identity of this individual,

It turned out to be Zhao Qingqing’s master’s grandson, named ‘Lü Gongliang,’ who had failed his Foundation Establishment breakthrough three years ago.

With that, Lu Changsheng roughly guessed why the other party was envious.

However, as long as the other party did not provoke him, Lu Changsheng couldn’t be bothered to deal with him.

The celebration lasted a long time, with people coming and going, some leaving halfway, and others arriving later to give their congratulations and join the event.

As night fell and they had their fill of food and drink,

“Lu Daoist, Hong Daoist, as it’s getting late, why don’t you both stay here for the night?” Zhao Qingqing said to Lu Changsheng and Hong Yi.

“Since that’s the case, we’ll trouble you then, Zhao Daoist,” said Lu Changsheng after a brief pause.

He had intended to visit his children on this trip.

Now that it was already late and he had drunk so much, it wasn’t convenient for him to go there.

Soon after, Zhao Qingqing arranged accommodation for both of them.

“Lu Daoist.”

After showing Lu Changsheng to his room, Zhao Qingqing didn’t immediately leave.

“Hmm, what’s the matter?” Lu Changsheng looked towards the tall and graceful Zhao Qingqing in her blue-green silk dress, fresh and refined.

She had drunk quite a lot, her beautiful and refined face blushed with a hint of tipsiness, adding a bit more charm to her demeanor.

Although cultivators can use their mana to dispel the effects of alcohol,

most wouldn’t do so as it removes the pleasure of drinking and dissipates the benefits of the spiritual wine.

“If it weren’t for Lu Daoist’s Premium Foundation Establishment Elixir, Qingqing certainly wouldn’t have been able to break through to Foundation Establishment, so I am deeply grateful to Lu Daoist,” Zhao Qingqing said, her eyes filled with gratitude as she gave a deep bow.

She had indeed succeeded in her Foundation Establishment,

but having gone through the process herself, she realized just how difficult it was.

She knew that if she hadn’t had Lu Changsheng’s Foundation Establishment Elixir, based on the Meridian Protecting Elixir she had prepared originally, she surely would have failed the breakthrough.

“Zhao Daoist is too kind. The main reason for your breakthrough is your own efforts. The Foundation Establishment Elixir simply added a final touch,” Lu Changsheng said with a smile, waving his hand lightly to indicate that there was no need for formality.

“With such a favor from Lu Daoist, Qingqing feels ashamed and doesn’t know how to repay you,” said Zhao Qingqing, standing tall and blushing as she looked at Lu Changsheng.

Then, as if gathering her courage, she took hold of Lu Changsheng’s hand, her eyes filled with shyness.

Lu Changsheng was slightly startled when Zhao Qingqing’s soft and delicate hand grasped his own.
