You Cultivate, I Farm

Chapter 762: Old Friend from Sky Sword Sect

After leaving the branch of the Commerce Association, Lu Xuan headed straight to a grocery store.

“Senior Lu!”

Wen Qian, seeing several Foundation Establishment Cultivators loitering in the shop, pushed them aside and stepped forward to greet Lu Xuan respectfully.

The cultivators, noticing Lu Xuan’s cultivation level, greeted him in unison, and then left cautiously.

“Bring me the spirit stones from the store, I need them,”

Lu Xuan instructed.

“Yes, Senior, please wait a moment.”

Soon, Wen Qian came out from the back with a thick ledger and a large capacity storage bag.

“Senior Lu, this is the shop’s revenue for the recent few months, totaling nearly 1.2 million low-grade spirit stones. Every transaction is recorded in this ledger. Please have a look,”

he said, respectfully placing the storage bag and the ledger on the wooden table in front of Lu Xuan.

“Good,”

Lu Xuan flipped through the ledger casually and weighed the storage bag in his hand, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Having supplemented such a large amount of spirit stones, even if he encountered one or two seventh-grade spirit seeds, he had a good chance of acquiring them.

In the following days, Lu Xuan simply stayed in the Star Plucking Building, quietly waiting for the auction to commence.

“Fellow Lu, I had heard before that you opened a small shop in the Star Plucking Building, but I didn’t expect it to be this grocery store.”

One day, as he was resting in his shop, a familiar voice sounded in his ear.

Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw Hermit Yu Lin and Wang Suihuai entering the grocery store together.

“Both fellow daoists, please come in.”

“Just a small venture, mainly selling some spiritual medicines I cultivated myself, a few characteristic spirit brews, and a few other treasures,”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“Fellow Lu, you’re being too modest. I’ve heard that your shop once had items like the thunder death crystal and fifth-grade magical artifacts. If this counts as a small venture, other shops might as well not bother opening,” ṘâƝóꞖÊs@@@@

Hermit Yu Lin joked, as the two entered the shop and casually browsed the many items on the shelves.

“No more thunder death crystal?”

Hermit Yu Lin looked slightly disappointed.

“I obtained a bit by chance and have already sold all of it. If I get the chance to acquire some more in the future, I’ll definitely reserve some for you, Fellow Yu Lin,”

Lu Xuan said with a smile, not revealing all the thunder death crystals he still had on him.

Doing so would significantly decrease the value of the thunder death crystal and could also bring him considerable trouble.

As for Hermit Yu Lin’s request, he would find an excuse later and sell some to her.

“Alright, then I’ll just pick out a few bottles of spiritual wine and spiritual liquid. The brews you make are top-notch,”

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened, fixating intently on a stall ahead.

The stall displayed many Demon Beast Materials of respectable quality, most of them fourth grade.

However, what attracted Lu Xuan’s attention was not the multitude of materials on the stall, but the stall owner himself.

The stall owner wore a green robe, with a gentle demeanor, and carried a deep black sword case on his back.

“Brother Shen Ye...”

Lu Xuan was shocked, never expecting to meet his former sect brother here.

He composed himself and quietly approached the gentle cultivator’s side.

“Brother Shen, long time no see.”

Hearing this familiar phrase, Shen Ye’s frame trembled slightly, and then he turned around with a look of surprise.

“Junior Brother Lu!”

He exclaimed.

Immediately, his spiritual sense detected the profound and deep aura of Lu Xuan, his pupils dilating drastically.

“No, I should address you as ‘True Person Lu’.”

He took a deep breath, his expression complex as he spoke.

His face showed joy, shock, surprise, and envy.

“Brother Shen, don’t be a stranger. In my eyes, you have always been my brother.”

“Junior Brother Lu sounds much more cordial and pleasant.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“Alright then, I won’t stand on ceremony, Junior Brother Lu,” Shen Ye said and immediately relaxed a great deal.

Having sensed that Lu Xuan had entered the Condensing Pill Realm, he knew the disparity in their statuses and had altered his address to avoid presumptuousness.

But Lu Xuan insisted on maintaining their original relationship, and Shen Ye complied amiably, returning to their past sect times.

“Shen never thought that he would run into Junior Brother Lu at the Star Plucking Building.”

“What’s even more unexpected is that Junior Brother has already advanced to Core Formation!”

Shen Ye said, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.

He remembered when he first met Lu Xuan at the sect, Lu had not yet reached the Foundation Establishment Realm. Because he greatly admired Lu’s planting skills with the Sword Grass, they formed a deep friendship.

After a major event at the sect, all the Foundation Establishment disciples went their separate ways.

At the time of their parting, he had already achieved Foundation Establishment Perfection and was just a step away from Core Formation, while Lu Xuan was merely in the late term of Foundation Establishment, with a considerable gap in their cultivation levels.

Yet, to his surprise, upon meeting again, Lu Xuan had already become a Core Formation Real Person!
