Chapter 374: These Are the Rest of My Play (2/2)

Lu Li already didn't know what to say anymore.

”Therefore, after much deliberation, I decided that long term pain is inferior to short term pain, so I simply looked for an opportunity to run away. They were still young, with excellent future, but I and they have no future at all.” w.a.n.g Wu sighed in melancholy and then she smiled. ”Junior Brother, you now think I'm very selfless, right? Really great?”

Lu Li was silent for a long time and then deeply sighed. ”Later on, I won't put myself in the affairs of your Non-Phase Peak anymore!”

”Oh, right, Junior Brother, since you haven't married yet, why don't…”

”Don't even think about it!”

With that, Sixth Elder turned into a sword light and, in the blink of an eye, vanished without a trace.

After Lu Li's departure, w.a.n.g Wu was left alone in that humble abode. Gradually, however, a smile appeared on her face.

”Little Lu, do you think this is over? You have offended your Master and still want to get away? How could it be that easy!”

On the other side, w.a.n.g Lu, alone, rushed to Plentiful City.

This city, who was named by Feng Yin, has now become a prominent bustling city in Nine Regions. After a year, its development was already beyond the expectation of many people. From its original design, the city has been widened twice to meet the demand. At this moment, the exploration of the group of immortal tombs was still in its early stage, so its value, as well as that of Plentiful City, were far from being tapped to the limit.

No one knew at what point Plentiful City could eventually develop, but everyone knew that the city has immense potential. Therefore, when w.a.n.g Lu, with his status as the Plentiful City Management Committee Member, arrived, he enjoyed a very grand reception. Aside from the officer that was sent by the committee to receive him, many sects that wished to lay their foundation in Plentiful City actually sent their team of elders. The lowest level among them was of Jindan Stage, while Daoist Masters of Yuanying Stage were not rare either. A Peak Xudan Stage cultivator surrounded by a group of Jindan and Yuanying, this was a quite bizarre scene.

w.a.n.g Lu himself was somewhat unable to put up with it any longer. Because although on the surface, these Jindan and Yuanying cultivators looked reverent and respectful, but inwardly, they thought that within the Management Committee of Plentiful City, only w.a.n.g Lu was a disciple, while the rest were high rank cultivators with cultivation base of Yuanying and Deity Stage whose vision was far higher than them. Complimenting and being respectful to these Yuanying and Deity Stage cultivators were useless, and if they wanted to spend resources to build relations.h.i.+p, it would be unimaginably high. In contrast, as the only Xudan Stage Management Committee Member, it must be easier to win over w.a.n.g Lu.

Being regarded as an easy target, how could w.a.n.g Lu be in a good mood? Let alone currently, he was bearing an important matter, which was the Spirit Sword Sect's thirty-six chains. Therefore, he very coldly and rigidly pushed aside this crowd of elders that surrounded him one by one, in exchange for a moment of peace.

w.a.n.g Lu just casually pushed those elders aside, without any further thought. However, the officer sent by the Plentiful City Management Committee was amazed. At first, when he was told to greet and serve w.a.n.g Lu, at first he was quite resentful, thinking that how could a Daoist Master of Jindan Stage from a high rank sect like him be a.s.signed as a personal servant of a Xudan Stage disciple? However, when he saw how w.a.n.g Lu coldly pushed aside everyone that surrounded him, he felt that this time, he was not in charge, so he has no right to decide, therefore not his responsibility. For example, the committee has to act according to the rules, and avoiding a private contact was one of such rule… Suddenly, he felt that he would gain quite a lot of harvest. Therefore, his perception of w.a.n.g Lu has also greatly changed.

While pondering about it, the two finally arrived at the entrance of the group of immortal tombs, where it was really crowded with people. w.a.n.g Lu contemplated for a moment, but the officer became uncomfortable, so he asked, ”Em, Daoist Master w.a.n.g, is there anything else that you need?”

With w.a.n.g Lu's cultivation base, he was not eligible yet to use the t.i.tle Daoist Master, but as the leading cadre in Plentiful City, the actual operation of such convention was not that strict.

w.a.n.g Lu thought for a moment and then handed over that officer with a list. ”I am sure you have many contacts here, so help me collect the items in the list and take out some props from Plentiful City's public storehouse. If there are any fees to cover, just record them on the committee account.”

”Okay.” The officer took the list and turned away.

w.a.n.g Lu then continued his pondering, thinking about the development of the immortal dream lands. Previously, when he heard Wen Bao recounting his experience, he burst out laughing. The problem was, now it was his turn to solve that test.

Wen Bao's problem was that he didn't withstand the temptation and had a night of pleasure with the amorous village girls, thus the story could not progress, and he was forced to exit. However, the problem was, later on, Yue Yun also went to try it, and he withstood the temptation. However, the village girls thought that he was too stiff and dull, and the story was cut short!

Now it was w.a.n.g Lu's turn to experience this test, but how should he handle it?

While he was still thinking, he suddenly heard the voice of a bevy of young girls from nearby. ”Senior Sister, see that, it's him isn't it?”

”Mm, the look is indeed really similar!”

With that, someone patted w.a.n.g Lu's shoulder and a cute young girl asked him with a smile, ”h.e.l.lo, are you w.a.n.g Lu of Spirit Sword Sect's Non-Phase Peak?”
