Chapter 70: Never leave the retreat before building the foundation of Heavenly Dao

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Several demon tides occurred during this period, but fortunately they were only small ones. Chen Yun activated the formation in time to save the people on the island from disaster.

It's really thrilling.

There is a three-level defense formation on the island. Even if the Golden Core cultivators come, they will not be able to attack it for a while.

Otherwise, when these monster waves invade the island, they will definitely burn, kill, and loot. There will be countless casualties, and even Chen Yun may have to leave this place.

But he is only at the fifty-eighth level of Qi refining now, and it will probably take fifteen years before he reaches the ninety-ninth level.

Chen Yun took a deep breath and used the core of the formation to examine the formation again. The Zhao family was already repairing the formation, so it should be fine for the time being.

What troubles Chen Yun the most is that the effects of drug resistance are becoming more and more serious. Now the time it takes for him to advance to the first level has increased from two months to three months.

You can only enter four floors a year.

Even if it is fast, it will still take ten years, but Chen Yun is afraid that it will take another fifteen years.

The final approximate time is twenty-five years!

It took twice as long as he expected.

"That's all, futile anxiety won't change anything."

"Now that we've come this far, we have no choice."

"There is only one way, to the dark side!"

Chen Yun took a deep breath, swept away all the negative emotions in his heart, and re-entered the state of cultivation.

Yunmeng City.

At Chen Yun's house.

"Congratulations."

Manager Chen is over 100 years old and looks a bit senile. He walks with his back hunched over, but he is energetic. He is accompanied by two men in black. One of them is holding a jade plate with a red piece on it. cloth.

Manager Chen was busy congratulating him from afar.

A cold woman who seemed to be in her thirties, with a slender jade neck, was sitting on a jade chair giving orders to several maids and servants. When she saw Manager Chen coming, she calmly waved away many of the servants.

"Manager Chen is really strange. I don't know why he is so happy."

"Mrs. Chen, she is well hidden. I heard that she has recently broken through to the second level of foundation building. I heard about it and hurriedly updated my identity token for my wife."

"According to the rules of the Chen family, for every level of Foundation Establishment monk promoted, the monthly minimum monthly salary will be two hundred spirit stones. Madam's contribution to the Chen family in the past ten years can be considered as the current reward for the second level of Foundation Establishment. "

"Now Madam can get a guaranteed 3,500 spirit stones in one month."

Manager Chen stood outside the door with a dry smile, but kept looking around from the corner of his eye.

Lu Lingxin had already had a clear view of his movements.

"It's a happy event to hear this. I'm afraid Manager Chen is here for other purposes."

When Lu Lingxin heard this, her eyes were calm, showing no trace of happiness or anger. She thanked him lightly, then changed her topic and looked at Manager Chen who was secretly glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.

Manager Chen smiled a little flusteredly.

"No, that's it."

"Mr. Chen, it's better to stop pretending. I know that our husband has not returned for ten years. Many people in the Chen family have heard that he has died in the chaos of the sea. If he dies, if his heirs don't have half of the foundation-building monks in the future, I'm afraid They will be expelled from the family tree one after another."

Lu Lingxin calmly stated the plans of the senior officials of the Chen family.

"No, no!"

"Those are all rumors. I think Senior Chen is blessed with great fortune and a boundless path to immortality. Where will he be? I'll take my leave."

Old Chen shook his head like a rattle and hurriedly denied it, not daring to delay any further and turned around.

He just walked off with his front foot.

Lu Lingxin's eyebrows were slightly lowered and twisted into a ball with a melancholy look.

There are thousands of thoughts and worries in my heart, and there is nowhere to vent them.

So she could only concentrate on practicing, but she had to personally take part in all the trivial matters in the family.

After a long time, I was exhausted.

The speed of cultivation has also been greatly reduced.

"Come here, that girl Xi'er hasn't come to say hello for several days. What's wrong with her? Is she feeling unwell?"

"Back to the fourth lady, the third lady has been locked up in the boudoir these days and hasn't gone out much..."

Lu Lingxin secretly felt that something was wrong. This girl Chen Ruxi was usually eccentric, but if she didn't come to greet her for several days in a row, something must have happened.

At this moment, someone outside the door reported: "Fourth Madam, someone is coming from outside."

Lu Lingxin walked out in surprise, and saw an old man in his eighties or nineties, followed by three or five Qi Refining monks, holding a chubby young man with a bandaged arm in his right hand.

"Grandpa, if you don't forget it, my grandson is actually at fault too."

The young man drooped his head and seemed very shameless. In his opinion, it was really a shameful thing to let the parents come to the door after failing to beat a girl.

"Damn it, you were beaten by a girl and you didn't even dare to fart. How can I expect you to build the foundation and form the core and lead the family to take off in the future?"

While the old man was scolding, when he saw Lu Lingxin coming, he twirled a strand of his beard and hair, raised his chin, and looked arrogant.

"Who are you?" Lu Lingxin showed a reserved smile.

"I am the third uncle of the head of the Chen family. Even the head of the family has to be polite when meeting me.

This is my grandson. He was beaten by that stinky girl Chen Ruxi of your family who lacked discipline a few days ago. I heard that you are in charge of the Chen family now. Please come up with a compensation plan. "

The old man waved his hand, and his subordinates took out a chair from the storage bag, and immediately sat down with Erlang's legs, as if he was not satisfied that the matter would not be finished today.

Lu Lingxin's eyes turned and she was about to get angry. She seemed to have remembered something. A look of sudden realization flashed across her face and she ordered her servants: "Please come out, Miss Three."

After a while, a girl in a green dress, with an eccentric appearance, and a small bell tied around her waist, with a slender jade neck and a fragrant breeze came forward. As she walked towards her, there was a crisp sound.

As soon as Chen Ruxi saw this scene, she immediately knew that she was in trouble. She muttered her red mouth and hid silently behind her fourth mother, Lu Lingxin.

"Ruxi, what's going on?"

Lu Ling said with a cold expression.

"Sister, don't blame me. He first said I had no father, so I just gave him a light beating. Who knew he was so careless?"

Chen Ruxi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows as she spoke, feeling a little proud. Then she saw Siniang's face turned gloomy, her tone lowered, and she looked like she was confessing her guilt.

"Si Niang blames me for hitting too hard. I will be careful next time."

"Next time? And next time? You stinky girl, you beat my grandson like this, and you want to get away with it?" The old man slapped the armrest angrily and stood up angrily.

"Then what do you want? I'll apologize to you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, that's it. Who knew he was such a waste." Chen Ruxi muttered quietly, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face. The angry old man blew his beard and glared.

"Look, look, this is the good girl in your family's discipline. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer to this matter, the day will not be over!" The old man waved his sleeves heavily, with an attitude of not giving up.

Although Chen Ruxi had a tough mouth, tears were welling up in her eyes. She was always strong, but she couldn't stand it when others said she was undisciplined.

Lu Lingxin still had a calm look on her face. She whispered a few words into the servant's ear and said softly: "Then what do you think should be done?"

The old man seemed to have finally waited for this sentence. He sat down slowly, pinched his fingers, and finally showed five fingers.

"Five hundred spiritual stones, that's it."

"What! Five hundred? Isn't it just a broken arm? The elixir for treating broken bones only has the effect of ten spiritual stones, and it will be cured in a few days. You are blackmailing!" Chen Ruxi stamped her feet anxiously, almost calling the old man a scoundrel. .

Lu Lingxin glared at her and told her to shut up.

Chen Ruxi felt aggrieved and the mist in her eyes became heavier. She knew that if her father were here, how could she let outsiders be so presumptuous and dare not even come to her door even if they had the guts to do so.

Dad, where are you? Why haven't you come back yet? Woohoo.

"Five hundred spirit stones is not impossible." Lu Lingxin chuckled.

The old man suddenly beamed, and the next second he immediately suppressed the smug look in his eyes, and said with a magnanimous expression: "I also see that it is not easy for you orphans and widowed mothers. Originally, I wanted a thousand spirit stones, so I have to show mercy. Forgive me, please bring me the spiritual stone."

"What? You seem to have misunderstood. What I mean is, you gave me five hundred spirit stones."
