I Cultivate Longevity in the Cultivation Realm

If a Ninth-Layer Qi Cultivation Cultivator is worth a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Even if Zhou Changwang has always been without enmity with the other party, it’s hard to ensure he can resist temptation and refrain from acting.

The human heart!

Is the most difficult to fathom.

Take Feng Xue, for example, although in her words and deeds, she reveals her intent to recruit ’Ascendant Feng Hua’, expressing her willingness to shoulder the pressure and threat from Young Master Ye Ping’an on behalf of the other party.

But that’s only because she finds ’Ascendant Feng Hua’ valuable.

Whether it’s the Sealing Thunder Talisman or the Summoning Talisman, if they can be supplied stably and long-term, their value far surpasses a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Believe me, there are plenty of people among various forces who share her thoughts.

Moreover, Feng Xue already has more than a seventy percent certainty that Ascendant Feng Hua is indeed Changsheng Daoist, currently trading with her.

She has personally witnessed the strength and prowess of this Changsheng Daoist.

Flying in the void, crossing the void, slaying a Foundation Establishment Early Stage Demon Beast within moments... such strength and skills, forget about just a single Foundation Establishment Pill, even ten pills wouldn’t tempt her.

"Fellow Daoist Feng is indeed kind!"

Zhou Changwang said, standing up and saying, "Since the transaction is complete, I won’t disturb you further."

Since he has made up his mind, he naturally won’t change.

"Safe travels, Fellow Daoist!"

Feng Xue looked deeply at him and said.

"Safe travels, Senior!"

Beside her, Chen Xiao’Er also chimed in.

Zhou Changwang nodded, and then walked straight out of the secret chamber.

"Aunt Xue, what do you think?"

After a long while, Chen Xiao’Er suddenly asked.

"I can’t see through it.

This person is probably Ascendant Feng Hua.

However, from all indications, he hasn’t established Foundation yet, but his demeanor remains calm and unperturbed, even addressing me directly as a fellow Daoist, incredibly confident, as if he has some backing.

Perhaps, just as you speculated earlier, his origin is quite extraordinary.

Either an elite disciple of some sect, or someone post-Golden Core... he’s definitely not a regular Loose Cultivator."

The graceful Feng Xue shook her head and said.

"What should we do next?

I heard that the main reason this time is because Ascendant Feng Hua killed a few of Ye Ping’an’s subordinates.

If they were ordinary subordinates, that would be one thing, but among them was a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Xue Xuanqing’s nephew.

And he wasn’t just an ordinary nephew, but allegedly an illegitimate child with his sister-in-law.

With the death of a close relative, he’s naturally furious, which forced Ye Ping’an to publicly offer a bounty. Otherwise, given his character, he wouldn’t have publicized such an embarrassing matter.

Rumor has it that the Foundation Establishment Pill being offered as a reward was taken out by Xue Xuanqing himself, originally prepared for his ’nephew’s’ Foundation Establishment.

Now, to avenge, it’s used as a bounty reward."

Chen Xiao’Er first asked a question and then explained.

"Old Ghost Xue’s mind has always been narrow.

But as far as I know, hasn’t he always been advised by Ye Yanshu to remain by Ye Ping’an’s side?"

Feng Xue paused, unable to resist asking.

"Rumor has it, that when this happened, he was present but still couldn’t protect his own son.

In the end, Ascendant Feng Hua managed to escape.

It’s said that even the gift Ye Ping’an had prepared for Ye Yanshu’s birthday celebration was stolen..."

Chen Xiao’Er continued.

"Hmm?

Then we must reconsider the weight of Ascendant Feng Hua, or rather, this Changsheng Daoist.

Xiao’Er, maintain contact with him and try to meet all his demands.

Such individuals should never be offended.

If there’s any news, promptly inform and show goodwill towards him.

This will be beneficial for both you and me..."

Upon hearing this, Feng Xue was startled, immediately nodding earnestly.

"Okay!"

...

Upon exiting the secret chamber, Zhou Changwang couldn’t help but furrow his eyebrows deeply.

There’s a bounty on him!

This is certainly not good news.

He can’t help but feel a sense of unease in his heart.

After all, anyone who finds out they’ve been targeted with a bounty won’t be pleased and will have some concerns.

Zhou Changwang is no exception.

What’s more, the reward is indeed tempting.

And he couldn’t foresee that Ye Ping’an would cause such a commotion over it.

This practically exposes his incompetence to all cultivators.

Especially since Ye Ping’an is currently in Foundation Establishment!

"Perhaps, there are other factors involved?"

Zhou Changwang furrowed his brows, feeling somewhat troubled.

"In the Black Market, Chen Xiao’Er and this Feng Xue must have roughly guessed my identity.

However, since they haven’t directly threatened me, they likely won’t spread this information.

As long as I leave the Black Market, they won’t be able to find me, nor know my residence.

On the other hand, Shen Xinyue knows not only my identity as Ascendant Feng Hua but also quite a lot about me..."

Zhou Changwang remains somewhat worried.

Reassessing his current situation, preparing for the worst.

After all, this time is different from before.

Previously in Fengming Wufang City, even though he knew it was fraught with peril and a big battle would eventually erupt.

But he was merely a small figure, his weak strength might get affected, but he wasn’t the target.

Hence, while being cautious, he quietly accumulated power.

Now it’s different.

The direct target is him.

And the forces arrayed against him are substantial.

Being a Young Master of a Marketplace.

Able to mobilize immense power.

Especially his father’s renowned presence, listed as one of the Foundation Establishment Eight Realms in Li Fire Domain fifty years ago, and his current strength must undoubtedly be even greater.
