"Although you haven't reached the Soul Realm yet, you can already fight against Yuan Shizi. Who is Yuan Shizi? He is a top prodigy among Soul Realm experts. Ordinary Soul Realm cultivators cannot withstand three moves before him. Therefore, you will break through to the Soul Realm very soon.
It will still take some time to advance from the Soul Realm to the Innate Realm, and this formation of mine will not be completed overnight. Battling against heaven is not that simple. I, this old man, am doing my utmost to help you, so you must treat me better in the future.
At least... take me with you wherever you go! Help me out when I'm fighting others. Be generous when I'm eating chicken! Don't be so heartless and stingy all the time, trying to settle accounts with me!" The scruffy old Daoist seemed to have finally found an opportunity and began to lecture Lu Fan.
"Alright! Here are the Yuan Gathering Pills! Please trouble you, old man, to make a trip and deliver them to Zhenren Yiqing and the others! Hehe!" Lu Fan took out a small bottle containing ten Yuan Gathering Pills.
"What the heck... You, you can actually refine Yuan Gathering Pills? Kid, I wasn't mistaken about you... Huh? Why should I, this old man, go? This road is not short. Are you treating me as a errand boy? Hmph!" After a burst of excitement, the scruffy old Daoist suddenly realized that the kid was ordering him around and said with a roll of his eyes.
"Hey! Old man! I'm giving you an opportunity to broaden your network. These are ten Yuan Gathering Pills. If you give just one to anyone, they'll be incredibly grateful! If you don't want this opportunity, then forget it. I'll have someone else go." Lu Fan immediately reached out to take the Yuan Gathering Pills back.
"Huh? Now that you mention it, it really is like that! Alright! Then I, this old man, will make the effort!" The scruffy old Daoist quickly stuffed the small medicine bottle into his embrace.
Upon returning from the back mountain, the family was waiting for Lu Fan to eat. Wang Yan sat happily next to Zhao Rongrong. Before, when Liu Ruyan was here, this seat always belonged to Liu Ruyan. This... it seems like a feeling of usurping power?
"Lu Fan! Why did you leave when it's time to eat? The whole family is waiting for you! Come over, have a drink with your dad." Lu Changfu directly called Lu Fan to his side.
Wang Yan's eyes flickered, seeming to have made a mistake. She should have let Lu Fan sit first. Then she could have sat next to Lu Fan. Now...
Zhao Rongrong smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth. Little vixen, do you think you can contend with me, an old fox, with just this? Hmph!
Lu Fan sat next to Lu Changfu and poured his father a cup of wine. However, before anyone could pick up their chopsticks, two people suddenly entered from outside. Taohua and Xiaohu.
"Oh my! We're eating! What a coincidence, we haven't eaten either!" As soon as Taohua entered, she headed straight for the dining table and plopped down next to Lu Fan. She even cast a triumphant glance at Wang Yan.
Everyone stared at Taohua, eyes wide. Can you call this a coincidence? You're just here to freeload.
"Uncle! Come, I'll drink with you! I haven't had a drink with my uncle in a long time. I miss the wine... no, I miss my uncle." Taohua directly picked up the wine bottle and poured herself a glass.
"Come! Sister-in-law Taohua! Sit here and have a drink with my dad!" Lu Fan stood up with his wine glass, directly giving up his seat to Taohua. When it came to drinking, he really couldn't match Taohua's skill. Not only could she drink, but she was also good at encouraging others to drink. She was a good candidate for all-around entertainment!
"This... why are you standing up!" Taohua muttered reluctantly, but still shifted her position.
"Xiaohu! Sit next to Mom!" Lu Fan picked up Xiaohu and placed him next to Taohua, then sat down next to Xiaohu.
Taohua immediately rolled her eyes. Is this a sign that he dislikes me? Hmph!
Wang Yan beside them immediately laughed.
Zhao Rongrong looked at the two young widows and felt a surge of anger in her heart. With Princess Iron Fan not at home, have all the vixen come to seduce the Bull Demon King? Hmph!
"Xiao Fan! Look, I specifically made turtle soup today. Come, I'll serve you a bowl." Wang Yan directly scooped a bowl of turtle soup and handed it to Lu Fan.
"Tsk! Sister Ruyan isn't home, why are you making something so nourishing? Are you trying to keep him from sleeping?" Taohua reached out and took the bowl of turtle soup, handing it to Lu Changfu: "Uncle, you drink more of this. Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger. Your age is just right for supplementing your body."
"Cough... cough... cough..." Lu Changfu sprayed out a mouthful of wine.
"I think you're the one who's a bit of a tiger!" Zhao Rongrong almost reached out to hit her. Taohua, you little widow, you can't say such things out loud! This tiger-like woman, it's a good thing my son didn't get involved with her.
"Hehe! Auntie! Don't be angry. I'm just telling the truth!" Taohua explained again!
Lu Fan casually ate a couple of bites and got off the table to cultivate.
Beside the Spirit Gathering Pool, Lu Fan sat cross-legged, surrounded by immense spiritual energy. Lu Fan quietly opened his divine sense, which slowly covered the entire Twelve Gou Village. The slightest rustle of grass was as if it were in his ears.
"Ugh... ugh... You damn bastard! If you want to play, can't you find a warm place? This is freezing my butt off!"
"Damn it... Are you afraid of the cold when you want to make money?"
"Get lost, you son of a bitch! You stripped me bare. You only unbuckled your belt. If you were quick, it would be fine, but you're messing around endlessly. In this cold weather, who can stand it!"
"Hehe! You have to scold Lu Fan, that little bastard. Ever since I ate the vegetables he grew, I can now last a whole class, compared to my previous three minutes! You, just hold on a little longer!"
"You damn bastard, change your posture and help me warm my butt!"
...
"Holy crap... these two bastards! They're dragging me into trouble even when they're doing something bad!" Lu Fan cursed. He suddenly saw a small nail in the corner, reached out and pulled it over, flicked his finger, and the nail pierced a hole in the glass and flew out.
"Ah..." A scream suddenly came from somewhere outside the village. Swish, swish... The two people who were busy jumped up from the ground.
"Bastard! What are you screaming about? Are you afraid people won't know?" The woman cursed.
"Damn it! A nail fell from the sky and hit my butt! Damn it! It's bleeding... What should I do?"
"Bastard! Give me the money tomorrow!" The woman pulled up her pants and ran away. It really is risky to arrange dates! Nails can fall from the sky, I've never heard of such a thing!
Pfft... Lu Fan burst out laughing!
Huh? My divine sense!
Lu Fan suddenly realized that this time, his divine sense didn't feel as fatigued as before. It seemed that the more he used it, the more he practiced, and the infant form in the center of his sea of consciousness became more solid, allowing him to clearly distinguish its features.
