Chapter 74: The Painstaking Efforts of Ancestor Changmei

Lu Tianyu did not expect Guo Laotou to be so cunning.

He hurriedly changed the subject: "Guo Laotou, we are wanted by the Nether Three Sects and cannot leave for the time being. I ask that you provide us some protection, Senior!"

At the same time, he sent a voice transmission to Changmei Laozu, promising to explain later.

A look of shock appeared in Changmei Laozu's eyes.

He secretly thought, "Grandson, you really are promising, to have completely conquered Gui Sheng Xie Yi."

Guo Laotou chuckled and held up his index finger to Lu Tianyu: "That is certainly possible. One High-grade Spirit Vein and one Top-grade Spirit Vein per day, and I can protect you for one hundred days."

He reached out his hand: "Hand them over."

Lu Tianyu was slightly stunned: "It seems you already know everything, Senior. You truly are a master."

"That... could you change the terms? You know that my Bahuang Star Domain is besieged by the Kulu San Zong and is severely lacking in resources."

At this moment, he was certain that this Guo Laotou already knew everything that had just happened and wanted to extort him.

However, one could not blame Guo Laotou; seeking protection from someone required paying a price, as this was an equivalent exchange.

"Since that is the case, I will not make things difficult for you."

Guo Laotou pointed at Qing Yuan, "Let this girl help me refine pills. I will borrow her for a month; that should be acceptable, right?"

"You need not worry. Whenever there is a crisis in Bahuang, I will step forward to resolve it."

He stared at Lu Tianyu with an expression that said he understood him well: "Besides, it is not guaranteed that you won't continue to cause trouble. As long as you don't go too far, I can help you."

"Also, I want those twelve male favorites of yours as well."

Lu Tianyu looked embarrassed: "Senior knows what this junior is thinking, but I must ask for the Divine Doctor's opinion on this."

He looked toward Gui Sheng Xie Yi.

At this moment, his heart was incredibly shocked.

This Guo Laotou not only saw through what he and Gui Sheng Xie Yi had done at the Chengzhu Fu at a glance, but also guessed what Lu Tianyu intended to do next.

Such a person was too terrifying; he was not someone he could currently contend with.

He was just worrying about how to deal with the twelve male favorites anyway, so it was better that Guo Laotou took them away.

Qing Yuan nodded in agreement immediately: "I will follow whatever the Young Master arranges."

Guo Laotou was also straightforward: "Good, it is settled!"

"The rooms on the fourth floor are all empty; you may choose as you please."

He looked at Changmei Laozu: "Chang Mei Lao Tou, help me look after the vegetables in the garden when you have nothing to do."

After saying this, he left with the twelve unconscious male favorites and Qing Yuan.

Lu Tianyu and Changmei Laozu were left behind, the two grandfather and grandson.

Changmei Laozu took a tea table and two stools out of his Storage Ring and brewed two cups of tea.

Pushing one cup in front of Lu Tianyu, he sighed softly: "Yu'er, your life is bitter. You haven't even turned seventeen and you've already become that old hag's male favorite. Grandfather's heart aches."

"Grandfather is useless and couldn't protect you, forcing you to sacrifice your looks."

A look of sorrow appeared on Changmei Laozu's face.

Even now, he still thought that the reason Lu Tianyu was able to win the favor of Gui Sheng Xie Yi was by conquering her with his body.

Pfft!

Lu Tianyu spat out the tea he had just taken a sip of: "Grandfather, do you think I am the type of person who would sacrifice his looks?"

"This is all my fault for not telling you about the opportunity I obtained in the Forbidden Abyss."

He opened his palm to display the Phoenix Ring: "I obtained the Sect Master's ring of the Fallen Phoenix Gate in the Forbidden Abyss, and it just so happens that Gui Sheng Xie Yi is a member of the Fallen Phoenix Gate."

"I sent you a message telling you that Gui Sheng Xie Yi could heal my dantian, but you didn't believe me, thinking I was just comforting you."

He could tell his grandfather about the Fallen Phoenix Gate to save him from taking risks for the Donghuang Clan.

However, he still had to keep the matters regarding Qian Gu Nu Di and the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron hidden.

"Ah?" Changmei Laozu widened his eyes, "There is such a thing?"

"I knew you had obtained something good from the Forbidden Abyss; otherwise, you couldn't have cultivated such an overbearing Body Refining Technique and caused a change in the heavens and earth."

The wrinkles on Changmei Laozu's face finally smoothed out: "Hahaha, my Bahuang is finally saved."

"Come, let us toast with tea instead of wine."

After drinking a cup of tea, Changmei Laozu's expression became solemn once again: "Grandson, although Gui Sheng Xie Yi is a woman, she is an old hag. You must not lose your heart to her."

"Grandfather has found a good match for you. The girl is not only beautiful, but she is also kind-hearted and has a good background."

"Grandfather has already moved that girl's heart and told her to let me bring you to meet her."

"Once this matter is over, I will take you to see that girl, hehehe."

Lu Tianyu was immediately embarrassed: "Grandfather, you arranged a marriage for me?"

"Grandfather, you have gone to such trouble, but I don't want to consider such things right now."

At the mention of marriage, the figure of Qian Gu Nu Di floated into his mind.

They had practiced dual cultivation for one hundred thousand years; he was branded.

Do!

Changmei Laozu placed his teacup on the table, looking somewhat displeased: "You were engaged to that bad girl from the Liuli Sect and she broke it off; you must be unhappy inside. Do you think Grandfather doesn't know you?"

"That girl only has a bit of beauty; she has nothing else."

"The one Grandfather found for you is hundreds of times better in beauty than the girl from the Liuli Sect, and her background is not something a small Liuli Sect can compare to."

Speaking to this point, he lowered his voice: "That girl is Guo Laotou's granddaughter, the Saintess of the Tianshan Sect."

"I showed her your handsome appearance, and she took a liking to you at first sight."

"I didn't tell her about your damaged dantian; I said you were a dual cultivator of spirit and martial arts with infinite prospects, and that girl was moved immediately, hehe."

"With Gui Sheng Xie Yi and the Tianshan Snow Lotus, reshaping your foundation will be no problem at all. You will surely succeed in dual cultivation of spirit and martial arts!"

Divine light radiated from the eyes of Ancestor Changmei, and he was in high spirits.

Lu Tianyu was stunned for a moment: "Grandfather, no wonder Guo Laotou said you swindled someone's daughter; it seems that is truly the case."

At this moment, he did not even know what to say.

Ancestor Changmei was afraid he would be unhappy about being rejected by Liu Qingyan, so he had found him another good woman, full of love.

But he truly had no heart for matchmaking; his main energy in the future would be on cultivation.

Just at this moment, the delicate voice of Qian Gu Nu Di rang out: "Husband, aren't you being too conservative?"

"Isn't it very normal for a cultivator like me to have a few Dao Companions?"

"Husband possesses the Bahuang Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron, and your future achievements will surely surpass all from ancient times to the present; it is only right to marry a few more women and leave behind a few more descendants."

"Husband need not worry about me being jealous; you only need to know that I am the primary wife, hee hee!"

Lu Tianyu was speechless.

Seeing Lu Tianyu distracted, Ancestor Changmei could not help but frown: "Yuer, do you already have someone?"

Seeing Lu Tianyu shake his head, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It is settled then."

"Guo Laotou did not refuse, so this matter is nine times out of ten going to succeed; Yuer, you are in for a blessing this time, he he."

Lu Tianyu smiled bitterly: "Grandfather, let us drink tea."

He took a sip of tea and retrieved the Profound Void Mirror from his storage ring: "I have no use for this Profound Void Mirror; Grandfather should take it back."
