"Leave Dahefang in three months!"
The sudden decision caught everyone off guard.
Even some people who had just arrived thought they had not heard clearly, and looked confused on their faces.
Qin Liangchen asked doubtfully: "Leaving Dahefang? President Luo...are you alone, or are we together?"
When the words came to his lips, they should have been the word "Luo Chen".
But subconsciously, he became the "president".
No one cared about this unnatural scene.
Luo Chen looked at him and said calmly: "It can be me alone, or everyone together, it just depends on what you decide."
The implication.
It was him, Luo Chen, who had decided to leave.
If the monks of the Luo Tianhui are willing to follow him, then they will go together.
If he doesn't want to, he won't force it.
After hearing these words, everyone looked at each other.
"Why?"
The speaker was Duan Feng, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
Three years have passed, and he has lost the youthful energy he once had and has become more calm.
They all had short beards on their chins.
And his question is what everyone wants to ask.
Luo Tianhui had a hard time getting to where he is now.
It sits on the two spiritual lands of Xiaohuan Mountain and Xieyue Valley.
The number of monks under his command exceeded three hundred.
All aspects of business, connections, and territories are gradually starting to get back on track.
Now, he just wants to leave.
Who would?
Who is willing to give it up?
Facing everyone's doubts, Luo Chen looked calm.
The words he spoke were extremely solemn.
"In the ghost city, there is a ghost king-level existence. Although it is suppressed by the methods left by Master Jindan, it is only a matter of time to break out."
"According to my judgment, it can be as short as half a year or as long as one year, and it will definitely get out of trouble!"
"Dahefang is no longer a good place!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
In shock, a look of horror appeared on their faces.
A ghost king level existence!
That is a powerful existence comparable to the immortal golden elixir realm.
And unlike the ghost cultivators who take the initiative to practice the ghost path, the ghost king in Dahefang must be formed by the resentful ghosts absorbing the huge evil energy after death.
It’s hard to say how much intelligence this kind of existence has.
But it is naturally aggressive towards any living creature.
If this is the case, then Dahefang can no longer be said to be a bad place.
In the future, it will definitely become a dead place.
Sima Huiniang said in shock: "Could it be the strange movement in the ghost town yesterday?"
Suddenly, everyone thought of the earth-shattering movement in the ghost town yesterday.
At that time, all the monks near Dahefang felt it.
But later, the noise gradually died down.
Low-level casual cultivators cannot enter the ghost town to detect it, so they can only suppress their doubts in their hearts.
Now it seems that this is a sign that the Ghost King is about to be born.
When Luo Chen nodded solemnly.
Everyone couldn't help but despair.
If this is the case, then they really have to leave their hometown of Dahefang.
Luo Chen didn't say a word, leaving enough time for everyone to accept this reality.
His eyes swept over everyone.
Suddenly, his eyes froze.
At the end of the hall, there was a young man who was very familiar to him, holding Mi Li's hand tightly.
Frowning, Luo Chen looked away.
He spoke directly:
"Although according to my judgment, it will take at least half a year for the Ghost King to get out of trouble."
"But we can't be so stuck in time, otherwise we won't be able to get through when the time comes. If we get out of trouble early, it will be a disaster."
"Three months!"
"In three months, pack up your hands, leave Dahefang, and find another place to practice."
Luo Chen's words continued to echo in the hall.
After accepting the existence of the Ghost King, everyone's shock gradually dissipated.
They began to seriously think about where they and others should go.
It is absolutely impossible to live alone and have no one to rely on as a casual cultivator.
Now that Luo Chen is willing to take them with him, it is undoubtedly the best thing.
Listening to Luo Chen's words, everyone's mood gradually became calmer.
With a leader, many things are no longer so confusing.
The only thing that still confuses everyone is one thing.
"Ahem..."
Grandma Yuan asked tremblingly: "President, where should we go?"
…
"So, you want to become a Taoist couple with Mi Li?"
The hall was completely empty.
There were only Luo Chen, who was sitting high, and Qu Lingjun, who was kneeling on the ground.
The clear and indifferent words fell on my ears, but they were like the weight of a mountain.
Qu Lingjun's body trembled, and he gritted his teeth and said firmly: "This is what my disciple thinks!"
Luo Chen looked at him indifferently, "How old are you this year? What is your level?"
"This disciple is eighteen years old and is at the fifth level of Qi refining."
Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth, "Twelve years of practice, six years, and later Luo Tian will fully support your practice, so you can reach the fifth level of Qi refining."
"The disciple's qualifications are dull..."
"Since you know that your qualifications are not good, why do you still focus on these children's love?"
The tone of the last sentence was obviously a bit harsh.
Qu Lingjun's body trembled slightly and he did not dare to look directly into Luo Chen's eyes.
He was afraid of seeing that look of hatred.
He just lowered his head and said: "Sister Mi Li has been very good to me since I was a child. When Master, you broke through the Foundation Establishment, she also tried her best to teach me how to make alchemy."
"In the past three years, my grandfather's health has been deteriorating, and I cannot live up to your expectations. I must work hard to practice and refine elixirs. Many times, she is the one taking care of my seriously ill grandfather."
"Two years ago, my grandpa passed away. That was the time when I was most confused, and it was also when she..."
The old man from Qu Hancheng is gone after all.
He is actually not too old.
But he was hurt by fights with others in his early years, so he always looked old.
That time the alchemy hall exploded, and he was seriously injured in order to save the middle-grade chalcedony elixir.
During the three years that Luo Chen was in seclusion, he still couldn't hold on.
Pass away and live forever.
I didn't even have time to send him off.
Qu Lingjun was raised by his grandfather since he was a child.
One can imagine how sad he must have felt at that time.
Listening to these words, Luo Chen showed a look of helplessness.
He did not interrupt the other party's story.
In fact, as a master, I am indeed not competent enough.
He has never personally taught the other party how to practice. In terms of alchemy, except for the early exams, he only lost a book on alchemy experience and then got through it hastily.
In comparison, Mi Li was the real guide on Qu Lingjun's path to alchemy.
Although Qu Lingjun has now reached the first place and walked in front of Mi Li.
But there is also the reality of master and disciple.
After many years of getting along.
Even though the rice grains are not beautiful, it is normal for a young man to develop feelings for Ai.
It was this that made him helpless.
At this age, with such a decision, it's hard to say whether he is rebellious or independent.
"Master, please help us!"
At some point, the young man had raised his head and looked up at the man above with firm eyes.
Luo Chen frowned and his cheeks were slightly sunken.
After a long while, he sighed quietly.
"Let me ask you three questions, answer them, and then make a decision."
"Excuse me, Master!"
"Do you hope that you and Mi Li will grow old together and live and die together?"
"If you become a Taoist couple, you should hold your son's hand and grow old together with him."
"Then let me ask you again, do you want to build a foundation?"
"Since I embarked on the path of spiritual practice, my disciples have already promised to practice. When I became a disciple, I was encouraged by the master, and my determination to build the foundation has been extremely firm."
"Well, very good. Then let me ask you one last question. Based on your judgment, can Mi Li's qualifications be enough to build a foundation?"
"She...is afraid there is no hope."
Listen to the gradually lowering voice.
Luo Chen shook his head.
"She is more than ten years older than you, her qualifications are so low, and she has no resources."
"If you build a foundation and live two hundred years longer, she will die young."
"How do you grow old and grow old?"
"Have you ever thought about the future of building a monument for her with your own hands?"
…
In the main hall, the young man felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
His whole body stiffened and he knelt on the ground.
His eyes were blank.
In a daze, he seemed to see a scene a hundred years later, when he personally erected a stone monument and planted a green tree for his beloved wife.
In my ears, the master's sigh echoed for a long time.
"You're shaken."
"No, I just..."
He pursed his lips, wanting to say something.
However, facing Luo Chen's deep gaze that seemed to see through his soul, his eyes were no longer so firm.
"Young Mu Ai, I can understand."
"But the road is long and far away. If you don't have a Taoist companion who can keep up with you, how can you hold your son's hand and grow old together with him?"
"You're just asking for trouble!"
With a raised hand, the door slowly opened.
It was already dusk outside, and the sky was filled with burning clouds, making the sunset so gorgeous.
A figure was kneeling outside the door, alone and helpless.
Looking at that figure, Luo Chen's heart seemed to be pinched.
This is also a poor man!
"I won't do that thing of beating a mandarin duck."
"Tell me the answer after you reach the ninth level of Qi Refining!"
Qu Lingjun opened his mouth, but in the end he just said "hmm".
He kowtowed to Luo Chen and left the Huanyu Palace.
The main hall was empty.
Luo Chen sat alone on the large chair with a complicated expression.
What he said to Qu Lingjun was not an analysis of himself.
Along the way.
His performance has become more and more outstanding, and he is no longer the weak casual cultivator that no one cared about before.
With strength, status, and reputation.
There are countless female nuns who favor him.
Even his sister-in-law Murong Qinglian had once considered introducing him to a female cultivator.
If he were closer, there would be a beauty like Gu Caiyi who had a close relationship with him.
As for him, he has never been tempted.
That's absolutely impossible!
He is not a calm saint.
Before time travel, he was just a hardworking social animal. Falling in love ended up in vain because of the high housing prices in big cities.
In contrast.
Female cultivators in the world of immortality really have their own styles, and there are very few ugly ones.
In this case, what made him stick to himself was just his heart for the Tao!
The foundation building has not yet been completed, so he wants to retain his Yuanyang body.
After completing the foundation building, I just felt that my horizons suddenly broadened, and I no longer cared about the short and long term.
In this case, if it is just for the sake of beauty or temporary family warmth, a lifelong event will be hastily made.
That future.
What's waiting for him is probably——
"There is a loquat tree in the courtyard. It was planted by my wife when she died. It is now as tall as a canopy."
He didn't want to see that scene happen.
Watching the lover grow from the prime of life to gray hair, and finally die in the arms of old age.
That feeling, even if you have never experienced it, is definitely uncomfortable.
Yes.
Luo Chen had already made up his mind since he established the foundation.
"If it weren't for falling in love at first sight and being extremely tempted, I would never fall in love lightly."
This is his determination.
But it also left a little way out for himself.
After all, love is quite magical. Who knows if you will be able to resist when it comes.
Luo Chen smiled casually.
"In my life, even if I don't find a demon witch or a great fairy, I should have a Taoist companion who can keep up with me!"
…
The casual cultivators of Dahefang suddenly discovered something.
Luo Tianhui seems to be leaving?
All kinds of medicinal materials are on sale like crazy.
All kinds of low-level magic weapons are sold wholesale without any reference to the current market price.
Some of the hunting spots in the Guyuan Mountains that have been occupied in the past few years have also been sold to some small local cultivators as appropriate.
Not only that, even Xieyue Valley, which had been in operation for a long time, also dismantled the valley defense formation, looking like it was about to leave at any time.
Such an action made the casual cultivators panic.
Some knowledgeable people even linked this matter to the sudden change that occurred in Dahe Ghost City.
They also noticed something was wrong.
And in Xiaohuan Mountain.
An alchemy conference is being held in full swing.
It was said to be a conference, but in fact the main ones taking action were Luo Chen, Qu Lingjun and Mi Li.
"Look carefully, the most important step in refining the chalcedony pill is the processing of the main materials."
"And to deal with Huanyu, you must use the alchemy technique of breaking the jade hand."
"Watch my next move!"
In the huge alchemy room.
The earth's fire was blazing, and Luo Chen stood in front of the alchemy cauldron, his hands constantly interlaced like butterflies piercing flowers.
Wisps of spiritual power, pulled by him, slowly penetrated along the cracks in Huanyu's appearance.
Next to them, Qu Lingjun and Mi Li stared at this scene with their eyes wide open.
If there were other alchemists here, they would definitely be confused.
Luo Chen taught Qu Lingjun that it was appropriate to demonstrate alchemy for him.
Master-disciple inheritance!
But how could Mi Li, an "outsider", be so virtuous and qualified?
This is Luo Chen's act of "reciprocating love".
Mi Li took his place and taught Qu Lingjun for many years, and he deserves all the credit for his hard work.
However, she herself was limited in her alchemy talent and could only refine simple Bigu Powder.
So much so that the salary has not improved much over the years.
If you can learn something from Luo Chen's demonstration.
Even just a little can go a long way.
When the time comes, it would be best if you could refine the first-level elixir alone.
Even if you can't, you can still give Qu Lingjun a little trick.
In this way, there is reason to improve her treatment.
Watching the two of them from the corner of his eyes, Luo Chen sighed in his heart.
"After all, he is a person that Lingjun values and Mi Shuhua also 'helped' me a lot back then. It can make Mi Li live more comfortably and I can think more clearly."
After a demonstration.
Luo Chen stopped.
Let Qu Lingjun finish the final work of collecting the pills.
"Master!"
"Forty pills, all of them are top grade!"
Qu Lingjun was extremely excited, holding the wooden plate with admiration in his eyes.
This is his master!
As soon as you take action, you can refine high-grade elixirs at will.
Even a master of alchemy might not be able to do this!
Compare yourself to him.
Really, it's too far off.
Mi Li next to him couldn't help but be amazed when he looked at Luo Chen.
This is Luo Chen! This is Dan Chenzi!
Every time he takes action, it always gives people a shock.
It was the same way when refining the Bigu Pill, and it was the same way when refining the top-grade Zhongmiao Pills.
Nowadays, even high-grade chalcedony pills are so easy to get!
Luo Chen waved his hand and didn't care.
Instead, he looked at Qu Lingjun seriously.
At this time, he no longer had the firmness and maturity he had before, and was full of enthusiasm for alchemy.
"How much have you learned?"
