Chapter 95

The competition ended.

In the end, Liu Tong was chosen by Jiang Linxian to go to the Huaqing Sect for cultivation next month.

This drew the envy of countless people.

Qinghe had failed to compete for three years, and no one had joined the Huaqing Sect; Liu Tong undoubtedly became the focus of everyone's discussion.

Yes.

The competition had no surprises and no waves; there were no dark horses, and no one emerged from nowhere; it was not much different from previous years, and it took even less time, only one hour.

The crowd dispersed.

Li Rui left calmly.

For a seventy-year-old man like him, it was almost impossible to enter the Huaqing Sect through conventional means, unless the Huaqing Sect was still hiring sweepers.

Working as a cleaner for a Fortune 500 company?

Li Rui smiled faintly.

He had seen enough of the world.

He wouldn't be anxious about missing such an opportunity, nor would he be jealous.

If he had all the opportunities, would he really think he was the Son of the Plane?

Forcibly rush onto the stage and then gain the favor of a noble person?

Please.

This kind of plot in a storybook would have been completely prevented by those Huaqing Sect disciples under the stage before he could even rush up.

Just walk his own path seriously; there is no need to think about anything else.

But this trip was not without gains.

Qinghe Branch.

Li Zhai.

The lights were lit, a silhouette.

Li Rui looked at the small wooden box in his hand, his heart pounding.

"It must be a good treasure!"

Just today during the competition, he had been observing Jiang Linxian in secret; if he hadn't been worried about the terrifying intuition of a martial arts expert, he would have wished his eyes were growing on Jiang Linxian.

It was spiritual material.

Possessing the Spirit Eye, Li Rui could see the spiritual material contained in all things, and he also discovered that there were slight differences in the spiritual material contained in different items.

As an elder of the Huaqing Sect, Jiang Linxian was covered in spiritual weapons and armor, which in Li Rui's eyes smelled entirely of 'pay-to-win'.

But a golden light among them caught Li Rui's attention.

It was just because that golden light was exactly the same as the spiritual material emitted by the small wooden box in his hand.

Anything that could be carried by Jiang Linxian must be extraordinary.

"This item is so precious, and it was obtained from the Red-Refining Woman..."

Li Rui felt a shock in his heart.

That assassination attempt before, where was it aimed at Tang Sheng or money? It was clearly aimed at him.

"The people of the Guiming Sect should be looking for this thing."

He had a solemn expression.

The only thing to be thankful for was that the Guiming Sect now seemed to only confirm that the item was in the Tiandi Alliance, and they didn't know it was him.

Li Rui pondered:

"This item cannot stay in the residence."

The value of this small wooden box far exceeded his imagination; continuing to keep it by his side would only bring disaster.

Anyway, he couldn't open it, so he might as well find a secret place to hide it first.

As for the Guiming Sect...

When the Red-Refining Woman died, he was only a Ninth Rank; even if they wanted to suspect someone, the first choice would definitely be Tang Sheng, then Ge Hong and Zhang Yang.

It wouldn't be his turn to worry.

Three days later.

Yang Yong drove a carriage full of swill out of the Qinghe Branch.

If Li Rui went to bury the small wooden box himself.

It would undoubtedly be like 'there is no silver three hundred taels here', easily discovered by the people of the Guiming Sect.

The swill stored in each residence of the Qinghe Branch was transported out by each person responsible, once every seven days; this matter had always been handled by Yang Yong for the Li Zhai, so doing it by Yang Yong would not arouse the suspicion of the Guiming Sect.

Without anyone knowing.

Hun Tian Yi Hall.

"Boss Li, Liu Tong wants to invite a few of us from the old Hun Tian Yi Hall to get together."

Zhou Shulin said.

Li Rui put down the book in his hand and smiled lightly:

"He has a heart."

Liu Tong was truly high-spirited now, having become a disciple of the Huaqing Sect; his future would definitely not be bad.

Didn't you see Zhang Yang hanging around in Liu Tong's sister's room every day, refusing to come out?

Zhang Yang helped these relatives.

Wasn't it just so that one day he could be fed back?

Liu Tong going to the Huaqing Sect was also quite helpful for his status in the Tiandi Alliance; it was a win-win situation.

"Boss Li, Liu Tong said to have a small gathering in his small courtyard at the branch."

Zhou Shulin added.

He wanted to go.

After all, Liu Tong was going to fly high in the future; although he had already hugged Li Rui's big thigh tightly, he didn't mind hugging a few more.

This was something Liu Tong had specifically instructed him to do.

Li Rui laughed: "If I don't go, it would be a bit heartless."

Liu Tong had actually invited him once before.

The location was at the Huaye Tower.

Li Rui had refused; he didn't expect Liu Tong to be so thoughtful, changing the location to inside the branch this time, with only him, Zhou Shulin, and Liang He.

Evening.

Li Rui brought Zhou Shulin and Liang He to the small courtyard where Liu Tong lived.

Logically speaking.

Liu Tong was just an ordinary disciple and was not qualified to live in a private courtyard.

But because of his special status, plus Zhang Yang's operation, he had this small courtyard.

Although it was not as big as a Hall Master's residence, it was enough to show his status.

Just knocked on the door.

Liu Tong happily pushed the door open.

Zhou Shulin and Liang He originally thought that according to Liu Tong's temperament, the courtyard would definitely be filled with beauty and spring.

But they didn't expect there to be only three servants, all over fifty years old.

Li Rui looked at Liu Tong with higher regard.

The 'kidney-deficient young master' in front of people was actually a struggle-maniac?

This required extremely deep city and perseverance; indulging in wine and sex all day, there were not many people who could truly stay awake.

Liu Tong cooked a few small dishes himself and warmed a pot of wine.

Seeing Liu Tong finish his work, Zhou Shulin asked in surprise: "Brother Liu, I didn't know you were still capable of kitchen work."

Liu Tong sat down and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Learned it before."

Zhou Shulin was silent.

Apparently, Liu Tong looked glorious on the surface, but his life in the main family probably wasn't easy.

Compared to Liu Tong, his childhood life was actually quite comfortable.

At least he didn't have to cook for himself.

Liu Tong raised his glass: "Li Tangzhu, I toast you with this cup; when I was in the hall, thanks to you letting me go, otherwise just the absenteeism would have been enough for me to eat a pot."

Revealing his own shortcomings.

And he still called Li Rui 'Li Tangzhu', and the distance between them was instantly shortened.

The three of them all smiled knowingly.

Sincerity is the ultimate skill.

Seeing Li Rui follow with a cup, Liu Tong showed a satisfied smile.

After three rounds of wine.

He took advantage of his drunkenness to ask Li Rui for advice: "Li Tangzhu, as I go to the Huaqing Sect, is there anything I should pay attention to?"

Setting up this wine was actually to ask Li Rui for advice.

Liu Tong admired this Li Tangzhu's steady style from the bottom of his heart; he didn't see other Deputy Helmsmen having ups and downs, only Li Rui steadily advancing.

He was his role model.

Li Rui took a shallow sip of wine.

Although Liu Tong became a Huaqing Sect disciple, that was because he caught the light of suppressing the Guiming Sect, and he was the better option in the three-choose-one.

Bone and talent were a dime a dozen in the Huaqing Sect.

"Little Liu, after going to the Huaqing Sect, you must highlight your personal advantages and play to your strengths while avoiding your weaknesses."

Liu Tong listened carefully.

"Since you were born with a good skin, you might as well use your advantages to inquire more about junior sisters, senior sisters, and aunt-masters with solid family backgrounds."

Liu Tong: "(○д)ノ"

Then his eyes lit up.
