I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

Lu Yang's lips curled up slightly, and he turned to Lin Ying with a smile: "I've encountered something quite interesting."

Li Yao, a direct descendant of the Li family, followed Li Feng and wanted to buy the top-grade Yellow Dragon Pill from him. After being refused, his face turned ugly, and he seemed to have quite a temper.

Lu Yang was wondering if Li Yao, who was in the sect and couldn't do anything to him, would turn around and target the Lu family in Yue Kingdom.

So he secretly sent Wang Er's three puppets back to the Lu family to guard them.

More than a month passed, and Wang Er still hadn't given any feedback.

Lu Yang then assumed that Li Yao was all bark and no bite, and gradually let the matter go.

It now seems that they never gave up; they were just waiting for him to leave the Jinyang Mountains.

However, there was one question he hadn't figured out: why didn't Li Yao take action against the Lu family?

There are rules governing things within the sect, but once you leave the sect, no one cares.

With the power of the Jin Dan Li family, it shouldn't be difficult for them to do something to a small Qi Refining family in the Yue Kingdom.

If you can't figure it out, then stop thinking about it for now.

Since Li Yao intends to make a move against him, that's fine, let's go and watch the show.

Anyway, it's outside the Jinyang Mountains, so the sect can't interfere.

Lin Ying tilted her head, looking curiously at the meaningful smile on his lips: "What's so interesting?"

Lu Yang snapped out of his daze, smiled, and put a finger to his lips: "Keep it a secret for now, I'll take you to see a good show later."

Lin Ying blinked, feeling a ticklish sensation in her heart, as if she had been gently scratched by a kitten's paw.

But she was too embarrassed to ask further. She was a shy person by nature, especially in front of Lu Yang, and her skin was as thin as paper.

Lu Yang thought for a moment, then lightly tapped the token with his fingertip and replied to Wang Siyuan, "I understand, thank you for the reminder, Junior Brother Wang. Li Yao's matter has no impact on me, so don't worry."

After sending this message, he couldn't help but mentally give Wang Siyuan a high score.

Li Yao was a direct descendant of the Li family, a family with a Golden Core cultivation level. Wang Siyuan, an outer disciple with no background, secretly tipped him off, which was tantamount to indirectly offending the Li family.

This junior brother Wang is indeed a good person.

…………

Seven Kill Peak. West District No. 22.

Sunlight streamed in obliquely through the window, bathing the meditation room in a warm golden hue.

A few rays of light fell on Wang Siyuan's tense profile. He sat cross-legged on the futon, his expression constantly changing, his brows furrowing and relaxing, his lips pursing and relaxing.

I felt somewhat anxious and insecure.

When he went to the cafeteria for breakfast this morning, he overheard several outer disciples at the next table whispering that Li Yao, the direct descendant of the Li family, seemed to be preparing for something big.

He listened intently for a few more moments, then his heart skipped a beat; they were talking about Lu Yang.

Li Yao is going to deal with Lu Yang!

Wang Siyuan's hand, which was holding the bowl of porridge, froze on the spot.

He continued eating as if nothing was wrong, but his mind was in turmoil.

Should we inform Senior Brother Lu? Or pretend we don't know?

If he reports the news, what if it gets leaked and Li Yao targets him?

That's a Golden Core family; killing an outer disciple with no background is as easy as crushing an ant.

But what if we don't report it...

The image of Lu Yang patting him on the shoulder and talking about the future flashed through his mind on the day of the outer sect assessment.

Although it's unclear how deep this senior's background is, he has indeed treated him well.

He speaks politely and never puts on airs.

Wang Siyuan sat on the prayer mat for the entire duration of an incense stick burning.

After three pieces of incense ash had fallen, he slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, and his gaze finally stopped wandering.

Never mind, I'd better inform Senior Brother Lu!

Senior Brother Lu is a reliable person; he wouldn't betray him so easily.

As long as Senior Brother Lu doesn't say anything, this news will remain a secret between the two of them, and no one will be able to find out.

He gritted his teeth and sent out the telepathic message.

After sending it, he became restless.

Every breath spent waiting for a reply felt like it was stretched tenfold.

Wang Siyuan stared down at the sect token in his hand, his fingertips tapping nervously on it, making a soft, rustling sound.

Finally, the token trembled slightly, and a spiritual light flowed through it.

His spirits lifted immediately, and he checked the audio transmission.

Lu Yang's voice was calm and his tone was extremely relaxed: "I understand, thank you for reminding me, Junior Brother Wang. Li Yao's matter has no impact on me, so don't worry."

Wang Siyuan was taken aback.

Then his tense shoulders relaxed instantly.

Senior Brother Lu's tone was so calm, as if Li Yao was nothing to him.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

Senior Brother Lu really did have his own trump card!

What level of trump card must someone have to completely disregard the direct descendants of a Golden Core family?

Could it be that Senior Brother Lu's background is even stronger than that of the Li family?

If that's the case, then my risky mission to deliver the message has been incredibly profitable.

In Senior Brother Lu's mind, his impression score must have increased significantly!

Thinking of this, Wang Siyuan's lips curled into an uncontrollable grin.

He quickly composed himself, straightened his clothes, and replied politely, "Since it won't affect Senior Brother Lu, I won't say any more. I apologize for disturbing you, Senior Brother Lu."

After he finished speaking, he let out a long breath and was about to sit down and calm himself down when the telepathic message came again.

Lu Yang: "I remember your home is in the Yuan Kingdom? Do you want to go back this year?"

Wang Siyuan was slightly taken aback when he saw the message.

He subconsciously raised his head, his gaze passing over the window of the cultivation room and landing on the distant horizon, in the direction of the Yuan Kingdom.

It's been over four years since I left home. I wonder how my parents are doing? Has my little sister grown taller?

A hint of longing appeared in his eyes, and his tone softened as he replied, "Yes, Senior Brother Lu. I've entered the outer sect this year, so naturally I need to go home to put my parents' minds at ease."

Lu Yang: "Then come with me. I'm also going to Yuan Kingdom, so I'll give you a ride along the way."

Upon seeing this, Wang Siyuan immediately jumped up from the prayer mat, his face beaming with barely suppressed excitement.

Senior Brother Lu invited him to come along?!

What does this tell us?

This shows that the message he just delivered really left a good impression on Senior Brother Lu!

He excitedly paced back and forth in the training room twice, then suddenly stopped.

and many more!

If he leaves the sect with Senior Brother Lu, Li Yao's men will likely be waiting outside.

If the two sides collide and he stands with Senior Brother Lu, then in Li Yao's eyes, Wang Siyuan will be nothing more than an enemy who is close to Lu Yang.

The days ahead will likely be filled with trouble.

Wang Siyuan's expression changed, and a look of struggle flashed across his eyes.

But after only two breaths, he gritted his teeth and slapped his thigh hard.

go with!

He immediately replied, "Thank you very much, Senior Brother Lu! When are you departing?"

I'm taking the gamble!

Senior Brother Lu's background is no less impressive than Li Yao's, and he is also kind and generous. Being able to climb up to this powerful figure is a tremendous opportunity for him!

With no background or resources, it would be extremely difficult for him to make a name for himself!

Such an opportunity may only come once in a lifetime; if you don't reach out and seize it, it may be completely lost.

As for Li Yao's possible retaliation?

When has the path of cultivation ever been smooth?

Every choice carries risk.

If you can't even take this small risk, then don't bother cultivating immortality; just go home and farm.

Wang Siyuan was not a procrastinator; once he had figured it out, he decisively relayed the message.

……

Danfeng Trail.

The bluestone path is sandwiched between two lush pine and cypress trees, and sunlight filters through the gaps in the overlapping branches and leaves, spreading shimmering pieces of gold across the road.

A mountain breeze drifted through the distant sea of ​​clouds, carrying the bittersweet scent of pine needles and wild orchids, and felt cool on my face.

Lu Yang led Lin Ying by the hand, and the two walked slowly toward the outer gate square.

He held Lin Ying's soft little hand in one hand and the sect token in the other. After hearing Wang Siyuan's final, decisive reply, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

His impression of Wang Siyuan was indeed not bad.

Although this junior brother's background is not very impressive, he is down-to-earth and quite filial.

Wang Siyuan had obviously taken a risk by tipping him off, so he had to reciprocate.

He suddenly remembered the investment contract he had just received yesterday.

He had originally been thinking about whether he should just find a member of the Lu family to use.

But upon closer examination, the spiritual roots of the Lu family members are all of low grade, and their future potential is limited.

Of course, I will not mistreat my family; the resources they deserve will certainly not be lacking.

However, this investment contract is based on the rate of return, and investing in people with limited potential is tantamount to wasting this reward.

Wang Siyuan was different.

To enter the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect, one's spiritual root must be at least of the middle grade.

Moreover, for an ordinary disciple with scarce resources to break through to the mid-stage of Qi Refining in the fourth year, it's possible that his spiritual root is of superior quality.

With such talent, if someone were to provide him with resources on the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect platform, reaching the Foundation Establishment stage would be a certainty.

Reaching the Golden Core stage is not something I dare not dream of.

Moreover, he is only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and is currently in a phase where he needs to invest a large amount of spirit stones.

The larger the initial investment, the higher the potential return.

That's why Lu Yang casually asked him if he was going home.

On the way, we can observe him further and see if this junior brother Wang's personality suits our tastes.

Wang Siyuan's answer did not disappoint him.

Lu Yang accepted the token, lightly ran his finger across the surface of the jade talisman, and replied with his final message: "Come now, I'll be waiting for you at the outer gate square."

Wang Siyuan replied almost instantly: "Okay, Senior Brother Lu! I'll pack up and be right there!"

Even through the token, you could hear the barely suppressed excitement in his voice.

Lin Ying walked quietly beside Lu Yang until he put away the sect token, then asked softly, "What's wrong, Junior Brother Lu?"

Lu Yang smiled and said, "It's nothing. Do you remember Wang Siyuan, who passed the entrance exam with me? He's also from Yuan Kingdom. I'll give him a ride later."

Lin Ying frowned, tilted her head, and thought for a moment.

The name Wang Siyuan rummaged through my mind, and finally I found the corresponding face in a corner of my memory from the day of the outer sect assessment: "Ah, it's that junior brother..."

At the time, she was so busy keeping Lu Yang company that she didn't pay much attention to her junior brother.

She smiled slightly and gently squeezed Lu Yang's hand: "It's up to you."

Lu Yang turned his head to look at her. Lin Ying was wearing a white outer disciple's robe. The mountain wind blew a strand of hair at her temple, covering half of her shy profile.

Sunlight fell on her eyelashes, casting two faint shadows.

He reached out and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

Lin Ying's ears turned visibly red in the sunlight, but she didn't look away.

The two walked hand in hand along the path strewn with gold dust.
