Landlord Era: I can upgrade my entries

When he noticed the "little tail," Lu Changqing deliberately walked into an alley.

"Come out?"

Lu Changqing turned around with interest to look at the alleyway behind him.

A short, filthy little beggar walked in from the alley entrance.

"Excuse me, are you an immortal?"

The crisp sound echoed through the alley, surprising Lu Changqing.

The little beggar in front of him had been following him to confirm whether he was an immortal. He was dirty and thin, and looked like a gust of wind could blow him over.

"Could it be Huang Rong? No, the age is wrong."

A thought flashed through Lu Changqing's mind: although he couldn't see the specific face of the little beggar in front of him, he was definitely not Huang Rong.

"Excuse me, are you an immortal?"

The little beggar asked again timidly, as if confirming something.

"You've been following me just to confirm this?"

Lu Changqing looked at the little beggar who only reached his chest, a hint of curiosity on his face.

"I...I heard that immortals take some people to the immortal realm. Can...can I go with you?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changqing was taken aback. He suddenly felt that this little beggar seemed rather interesting.

"Are you sure? Aren't you afraid I'll sell you out?"

Lu Changqing smiled. He suddenly felt that this little beggar was quite courageous.

"The immortal wouldn't do that; I have a treasure to offer the immortal."

The little beggar shook her head. She had always kept a secret: she could sense whether someone harbored ill intentions towards her.

She didn't sense any malice from Lu Changqing.

"Oh? What treasure?"

Lu Changqing looked at the little beggar in front of him with a curious expression on his face.

The little beggar glanced around and, finding that he and Lu Changqing were the only two people in the alley, breathed a slight sigh of relief. Then he reached into his pocket and took out a bright green seed.

"Immortal, I found this by chance near the Heavenly Barrier."

The little beggar held the seeds in his hands and said to Lu Changqing.

The moment the emerald green seeds appeared, Lu Changqing's eyes lit up.

A faint spiritual aura lingered around the seed, indicating it was definitely a seed of a spirit-grade spiritual plant.

I never expected to have such an unexpected reward while just strolling around.

Lu Changqing asked with a smile, "What's your name?"

"I...they all call me Beggar Su."

Su Qier said softly. She only knew that her surname was Su, and she didn't know her given name. Because she was a beggar, everyone called her Su Qier.

Upon hearing this name, Lu Changqing thought he had misheard.

It can only be said that this Su Qier is not that Su Qier.

"Okay, you'll be with me from today onwards."

Lu Changqing stepped forward, took the bright green seed, and then, without lifting her dirty head, gently rubbed it.

"From now on, just call me Lord. I'll take you somewhere."

Lu Changqing extended his finger and gently touched Su Qier's forehead, imprinting a spatial mark. Then, the two figures disappeared from the spot.

Su Qier felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and when he opened them again, he found himself in an unfamiliar place.

Inside the territorial space, Mu Lanxin was collecting spiritual water from the spiritual spring when she noticed Lu Changqing's figure and quickly went to greet him.

"Greetings, Lord!"

Lu Changqing nodded slightly to Mu Lanxin, then took out the spiritual plant seed that Su Qier had given him and casually tossed it to Mu Lanxin.

"Mulanxin, do you recognize these seeds?"

Mu Lan carefully examined the emerald green seed in her hand, then said, "My lord, this should be a lotus seed, which can be cultivated into a spirit-level lotus, but its specific function will need to be determined after it is planted."

"Alright, the seeds are yours."

Lu Changqing nodded slightly, then pointed to Su Qier, who was hiding behind him, and instructed, "Take her to clean herself up, and then arrange for her to go to Ma Yu to learn martial arts."

"Yes, my lord!"

Mu Lanxin responded respectfully.

The specific effects of that lotus seed still need to be observed after it is planted, but Lu Changqing could sense that the lotus seed was of a much higher grade than the Earth Luo Fruit.

Once cultivated, it might yield even more Origin Points than the Earth Luo Fruit could be exchanged for.

Among spirit-level plants, the Earth Luo Fruit is just the most common spirit plant, and the amount of Origin Points it can be exchanged for is too small.

It's unclear how long it will take to gather enough Origin Points.

That lotus seed is at least a mid-grade spiritual plant. If it can be cultivated in large quantities, it might yield a considerable amount of Origin Points.

After handing Su Qier over to Mu Lanxin, Lu Changqing's figure disappeared from the spot and reappeared in another location in the Earthly Realm.

In front of him was a pool of water about ten feet in diameter.

The pool was created by Lu Changqing in his spare time over the past few days. The water was ordinary, but Lu Changqing placed the stone sculpture at the bottom of the pool.

Looking at the pool, Lu Changqing had a joyful expression on his face.

Because the water in the pool is transforming into Xuanzhong Spirit Liquid, the pool water has already shown obvious changes, and he can even feel signs of gravity appearing on the surrounding area.

"I just don't know how long it will take to develop."

Lu Changqing smiled. With a continuous supply of Xuanzhong Spirit Liquid, he could not only use it to train his subordinates, but also sell it to exchange for other resources.

On the other side, Su Qier, under Mu Lanxin's guidance, had already washed up, revealing her somewhat childish face.

"Sister, why are your hair and eyes emerald green?"

With a look of curiosity on his face, Su Qier asked Mu Lanxin beside him.

"Because I am a Wood Spirit."

"Wood Spirit Clan? What's that?"

Su Qi'er looked confused, not knowing what the Wood Spirit Clan represented.

Mu Lanxin smiled and said, "From today onwards, you will be living here."

"You'll understand in time. Let me take you to see Master Ma Yu first."

While the two were talking, they arrived at where Ma Yu was.

At this moment, Ma Yu was leading a group of people in practicing martial arts stance training in an open space.

Everyone's face was covered in sweat, as if they were enduring something.

"Everyone, the Lord has given you a new life. Here, you will have no worries about food and drink, and no worries about clothing and food. But only by cultivating yourselves can you repay the Lord's kindness."

"This world is vast, and our vision was once limited. Immortality is no longer a legend for you."

"All of this is a gift from the Lord; you should always thank the Lord!"

Ma Yu stood before everyone, her eyes sharp and her tone serious.

In the past few days, as more and more people have gathered, he has also begun to teach them basic cultivation techniques.

Lu Changqing also gave him a lot of Xuanzhong Spirit Liquid to use for tempering the bodies of these people.

Seeing the focused expressions on everyone's faces as they cultivated, Ma Yu wore a satisfied smile.

Since learning the truth about this world and meeting Mu Lanxin of the Wood Spirit Clan, Ma Yu's mindset has undergone a significant change.

The Wood Spirits are naturally skilled at cultivating medicinal herbs, which is of great help to their master. Other races will also come here in the future.

This inexplicably created a significant sense of crisis within him.

If the number of races increases in the future, how will he be of any help to Lu Changqing?

Besides practicing martial arts, what else does he do? Does he read Taoist scriptures?

However, with Lu Changqing bringing these people in and arranging for him to mentor them, he found a new direction for his endeavors.

Lu Changqing didn't pay much attention to Ma Yu's thoughts, since he had already made arrangements for Ma Yu.

However, we'll have to wait until the Taoist temple is built.

After examining the pool of Xuanzhong Spirit Liquid, Lu Changqing left the terrestrial space and returned to Xuanping City.

He saw no need to wander around any further, as he really had nothing to gain.

Time flies, and the two days passed quickly.

On the last day, the star pointer indicated the location of the exit, and the three traveled together.

The three of them quickly found the exit.

Through the portal, they returned to the Blue Star Academy from this fragmented world.

Although he was only inside for seven days, Lu Changqing felt as if he had been in another world.

Welcome back, everyone!

Shen Qingyue watched as the students returned from the gate one after another, and once everyone was present, a faint smile appeared on her face.
