Chapter 431 People are not as good as they used to be

Chapter 431: People are not as good as before

The sun was shining brightly outside the cave, not to mention the exchange between Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan.

After a while, the two women entered the cave together, with smiles on their faces, and they seemed to get along relatively harmoniously.

One person was wearing a blue dress and the other was wearing a green dress. Both had delicate makeup on their faces, each with their own unique looks.

"Senior Brother"

"husband"

Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan held hands with smiles on their faces. They saluted one after another and then sat down opposite each other and began to whisper.

As they talked, they began to treat each other as sisters, as if they were good sisters they hadn't seen for many years.

Neither of them are short-sighted, and they both know what kind of situation Liu Yu hopes to see.

I also know that the decision made by Liu Yu will not be changed easily. In the future, it is impossible to favor one person exclusively and can only accept the reality.

Unless you leave his side, this situation cannot be changed.

But, can I leave?

Regardless of whether Liu Yu would allow it or not, it was impossible for the two women to make up their minds because of the various benefits they were enjoying now, which exceeded the many cultivation resources of ordinary monks.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!

Once something happens, no matter how hard you try to cut it off, you can't go back to the past.

Since they can't leave or change Liu Yu's mind, the two women can only accept reality and the existence of each other.

Based on the above two points, it is not surprising that Ji Ruyan and Jiang Qiushui's current attitudes are.

Looking at the two smiling girls, Liu Yu looked as usual and her heart was calm.

He had already anticipated this situation.

If we talk about feelings, the relationship between the three of them is really troublesome and a bit troublesome to deal with.

However, if we start from the perspective of interests, we do not consider the invisible and intangible "emotion".

Everything is much simpler.

Looking at the two girls who were laughing and talking, at this moment, Liu Yuxin Lake was as calm as water.

"Yes, I am able to have everything I have now, in the final analysis, it is because of my strength."

"Because of the Immortal Mansion and sufficient resources, the strength has been able to grow rapidly, and these female cultivators and monks have gathered around me."

"With only the cultivation in the late stage of foundation building, in this cruel and realistic world of immortal cultivation, it is too ridiculous to talk about illusory emotions."

Thinking like this, a little bit of enlightenment arose in Liu Yu's heart, and all the previous worries disappeared.

In his pupils as dark as ink,

Shining with the luster of reason,

At this moment, his heart became cold again, like ice covered in dust for eternity.

Although on the surface it remains the same as before, Liu Yu's thoughts have changed a lot, and he will no longer be confused about matters between men and women.

In the hall, the two women called each other sisters, and they chatted animatedly.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Yu coughed slightly, and the hall suddenly became quiet.

Ji Ruyan suppressed her smile, already expecting it in her heart.

But at this moment, in front of the person next to her, she felt a little nervous.

This "Sister Qiu Shui" has known her husband for decades. She is a fellow disciple and has an ambiguous relationship. She is also the senior brother's right-hand man, helping him handle many affairs.

After decades, the love must have been very deep, and the status in the husband's heart must not be low.

If this "Sister Qiu Shui" doesn't agree to cause trouble, then she will be in a dilemma.

"If that situation really happens, will my husband still insist on giving me a title?"

Thinking of this, Ji Ruyanshi suddenly felt unsure and uneasy.

Although based on her understanding of her husband, she always meant what she said and never believed it without words.

But when she thought about the status comparison with this "Sister Qiu Shui", she still felt uneasy.

After all, she was a latecomer, after all, the other party was her husband's junior sister for decades, and after all, most of her husband's classmates and friends recognized her status.

And she herself was just a female cultivator from an unknown family.

In Ji Ruyan's expectant and nervous mood, Liu Yu slowly spoke without letting her wait long:

"Ruyan is well-behaved, sensible, and strict with herself. After careful consideration, I decided to accept her as my concubine and give her the title of concubine."

"Junior sister, you two should get along well in the future."

In front of the two women, he told the news slowly and informed Jiang Qiushui of his decision.

"I understand, senior brother."

"From now on, Qiu Shui will definitely treat Ruyan as her biological sister, live in harmony with her, and will not embarrass her senior brother."

Jiang Qiushui was stunned for a moment, and then said this.

Perhaps because she had been prepared in advance, she acted very calmly at this moment, calmer than expected, making it difficult to guess her inner thoughts.

While talking, Jiang Qiushui smiled and held Ji Ruyan's hand affectionately.

From the first time she met the other person in Jinxingfang City, she knew from her senior brother's attitude that the relationship between the other party and her senior brother would not be simple.

After more than ten or twenty years, this day has finally come.

Underneath the smile, Jiang Qiushui felt a little sad, but he did not dare to go against his senior brother's will at this time.

This is a notification, not a consultation.

Hearing the other party's words, Ji Ruyan felt relieved, a big stone fell to the ground, and the smile on his face became more genuine.

But she knew it was not the time to be happy yet, so she immediately said:

"Husband, Ruyan will do her part in the future and get along well with Sister Qiushui."

"."

Ji Ruyan spoke very fast, saying seven or eight sentences in a row, and there was no leakage in his words. It was obvious that he had already planned it and had been waiting for this moment.

The general meaning of her words was that she would not disappoint Liu Yu's expectations and would fulfill her duties as a concubine. Jiang Qiushui was also very good. She would definitely learn more from Sister Qiu Shui in the future and hoped to live in harmony with Sister Qiu Shui.

The two women were holding hands, with bright smiles on their faces, as if they were really close sisters.

Their eyes met, and they reached some consensus without saying a word.

"very good."

"Qiushui, Ruyan, I hope you will always remember what I said today."

"Do not disappoint me."

Liu Yu felt calm in her heart, smiled slightly, looked at the two women and said solemnly.

When Jiang Qiushui and Ji Ruyan heard this, they both nodded silently.

Some words, without saying them, are already in my heart.

"Okay Ruyan, you go back to your room to practice first. I have some things to discuss with Qiu Shui."

The three chatted for a few more words, and Liu Yu turned to Ji Ruyan and said.

"Yes, husband."

"Then I will go back to my room to practice."

Ji Ruyan responded obediently, then said goodbye to Jiang Qiushui, turned around and entered his room.

The official announcement of her status as concubine affects everyone, not just herself. She understands that her husband still has something to say to Jiang Qiushui.

At this time, she can't mess around.

"Rumble"

The stone door slowly closed, and Ji Ruyan's figure gradually disappeared into the room until it was completely invisible.

There were only two figures left in the cave hall.

For some unknown reason, no one spoke immediately, and the place fell silent for a while.

…

…

"Junior sister, did you ever complain when I brought Ruyan into my room?!"

After a few breaths of silence, Liu Yu looked at the other party calmly and spoke slowly.

"Don't dare."

Jiang Qiushui bit her lip slightly, whispered these two words, and then stopped.

After saying that, she looked away and looked down at the dark stone table.

It seemed like there was something wonderful on the table.

"Don't you dare?"

"That's it?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly, understanding this woman's little thoughts.

Seeing that she was still silent, he decided to break the deadlock, so he got up and walked over.

He hugged it and placed it on his lap.

"Hmm~!"

Jiang Qiushui struggled slightly, but had no strength in his hands. When he was on Liu Yu's legs, he calmed down.

Holding the beauty in his arms, wisps of familiar fragrance passed into his nose, and Liu Yu felt a little emotional.

At this moment, he thought of some words of ancient people in previous lives.

There is an old saying: Cultivate your character, manage your family, govern your country, and bring peace to the world.

When it comes to myself now, there are certain things that I can learn from. Only when the "housework" is taken care of can the tasks ordered be completed and the results you want achieved.

In this world of cultivating immortals, it also has certain general uses.

Only by resolving disputes within the organization first can we free up more energy to better expand our territory and occupy more resource points.

Rather than falling into endless internal friction.

Otherwise, once something unexpected happens to the organization's highest combat power, the Dinghai Shenzhen, it is likely to fall apart.

"I just can't remember. Did Mr. Zhou say this or Mr. Lu?"

Liu Yu flashed this idea.

He hugged Jiang Qiushui with his right hand, reached out with his left hand to stroke the hair on her forehead, then put it against her chin and lifted it gently.

Without the cover, the woman's face was revealed to the eyes again.

Jiang Qiu Shui frowned slightly, her eyes were full of complexity, her eyes were slightly red, showing a trace of grievance.

"Clothes are not as good as new."

"People are not as good as they are."

Staring at the sad eyes of the female cultivator in front of her, Liu Yu said seriously.

"Even if I have Ruyan as my concubine, my junior sister's status in my heart will not be reduced at all."

"It was true then and it is true now."

Then, he said soothingly, and then stopped talking.

Liu Yu rarely comforts others, doesn't want to make promises, and doesn't need sweet words.

However, in just a few words, he had fully expressed his meaning and made his attitude clear.

After hearing this, Jiang Qiushui understood what Liu Yu meant, and the sadness in his eyes became slightly lighter, with a hint of bright color.

She knew that her status would not be affected by this.

"Is this true?!"

Jiang Qiushui stepped forward with brave eyes and whispered.

"Absolutely true."

Liu Yu answered without thinking.

After a pause, he spoke seriously again:

"You will not let me down, and I will not let you down."

The tone when he said this was sincere, but his heart was calm, and there were not many waves in his heart.

However, there is nothing false about these words.

As long as Jiang Qiushui works well and can position herself correctly, Liu Yu really has no intention of treating her badly and will try his best to provide some help in terms of resources.

However, if you want the status of "Taoist couple" and illusory emotions, you are just asking for trouble.

It seemed that Liu Yu's words really had a good effect, and Jiang Qiushui obviously felt a lot better.

After a long silence, she opened her red lips and said slowly:

"Senior brother, Qiu Shui knows."

"I will get along well with sister Ruyan in the future. I just ask senior brother not to neglect the old one by getting a new one."

Jiang Qiushui forced a smile, and there was still a hint of resentment in his words, but his mood was obviously much better than before.

Three wives and four concubines are common in this world. Even some ordinary foundation-building monks have countless wives and concubines, let alone an outstanding monk like senior brother?

Based on her understanding of Liu Yu, it was already the limit for what she had said.

Jiang Qiushui knew that if he asked for more, he would be at a loss as to whether he should advance or retreat, and he might really be left out, so he tried hard to adjust his mentality.

"Many disciples in the Qi refining stage have countless mortal concubines."

"Those fellow disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage also have many female cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage as concubines. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have many wives and concubines."

"It's so normal for an outstanding monk like my senior brother to have three wives and four concubines. I shouldn't think so wildly about it."

"As long as you don't neglect me, I'll be fine."

Thinking like this, Jiang Qiushui untied her knot and felt much better.

In fact, as a foundation-building monk, it was normal for Liu Yu to take a concubine. She did not have the status of a "Taoist companion" and had no right to interfere.

However, feelings are complicated. When thinking about Ji Ruyan, Jiang Qiushui still felt a little uncomfortable.

After seeing the changes in the woman's expression, Liu Yu knew that his comfort had worked, and he was in a good mood.

Jiang Qiushui is currently taking care of many of his tasks, including collecting spiritual herbs and elixirs and managing the Jade Pill Hall.

If we lose this girl suddenly, we won't be able to find a suitable replacement for a while, so it's better not to replace her.

After Jiang Qiushui untied her knot and felt better, the two chatted for a while, and then Liu Yu sent him out of the cave.

Before leaving, he gave her a bottle of "Qing Yuan Dan".

Five years have passed, and Jiang Qiushui's cultivation has also taken a big step forward, and is close to the peak of the early stage of foundation building.

After all, as Liu Yu's "general manager" in the team, if she was bolder, she might even get more resources than Leng Yuexin and Yan Kai.

With the support of sufficient cultivation resources, it is normal for the cultivation speed to be faster.

Moreover, the "Netherworld Xuanbing Lu" practiced by this woman does not need to be refined with demonic fire, and the magic power is not as pure and deep as the "Qingyang Gong".

There is also Jiang Qiushui's spiritual root qualification. Although it is not that good, it is still much better than the original Liu Yu.

As for Yan Kai, who established his foundation at about the same time as this woman, they cannot be confused with each other.

This kid narrowly escaped death. If he has some understanding, it is normal for him to speed up his cultivation.

Moreover, this person is very lucky. Maybe there will be another opportunity during the time when he leaves the team?

It wasn't until the blue light disappeared from the sky that Liu Yu withdrew his gaze, stood there expressionless and thought for a while, then turned around and returned to the cave.

"If we follow the ancient sayings of previous lives, I should be considered to have completed the "Qi family", right?"

"So what's next?!"

Sitting on the Taishi chair, Liu Yu thought wildly.

Since Jiang Qiushui had no objection, there was no obstacle to accepting Ji Ruyan as his concubine. Solving this matter made him feel very good.

Thinking like this, just as he was about to take out the "Book of Herbs and Pills" to meditate, there was a sudden movement from the sect token in the storage bag.
