Chapter 1328 -457: Lu Someone Was Once Wholeheartedly Devoted to the Sword!_4 It’s also possible to post a task and have others search for it. This is far more convenient than relying on ordinary Loose Cultivators or Clan Cultivators. “Alright, I’ll take a look later at what’s needed. When the time comes, I’ll be counting on you, Qing Yi.” Lu Changsheng replied with a smile. The other party currently harbored guilt towards him. Asking her for help frequently could not only ease the situation but also draw them closer together. Moreover, he could use this reason in the future to seek out Chu Qingyi. “…” Chu Qingyi watched him agree so quickly, thinking to herself whether she had misspoken. “Tsk, my connections in the Qingyun Sect are getting stronger and stronger.” Lu Changsheng sighed inwardly. A few years later, when Xiao Xiyue breaks through to Core Formation, he will have three Core Formation backers in the Qingyun Sect. But if Caiyun True Immortal learns about Chu Qingyi’s situation, will she still be willing to help him? She might just wish to cut him down with a single sword strike. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂 “Want some candied hawthorn?” Lu Changsheng looked at a stall ahead and asked. “No.” Chu Qingyi shook her head gently. But Lu Changsheng still went ahead and purchased a skewer. Taking one bite, he remarked that it tasted pretty good and gestured for Chu Qingyi to try it. Chu Qingyi was momentarily startled, but upon meeting Lu Changsheng’s tender and affectionate gaze, she parted her lips slightly and bit into one. The taste was unexpectedly good. “Quite tasty, isn’t it? Qing Yi, you probably don’t get the chance to stroll around like this very often, do you?” Lu Changsheng said with a smile. There’s a saying: ‘If she is inexperienced in the world, show her the wonders of life; if she’s weary of its burdens, share with her the simplicity of a carousel ride.’ For someone of Chu Qingyi’s age, she must have experienced much and gained considerable insight. However, as Lu Changsheng saw it, her insight was mostly confined to the domain of cultivation. As for the chaos of the Mortal World and personal affection, she has only superficial knowledge but little firsthand experience. So these ordinary little moments should strike a chord with her and become unforgettable memories. “Hmm.” Chu Qingyi nodded slightly. Lu Changsheng smiled but didn’t keep talking. Instead, he took her slender hand, walking side by side down the street, occasionally entering shops to inquire about goods and purchase Spiritual Materials. For some reason, this simple stroll gradually began to feel peculiar to Chu Qingyi. She reflected for a long time before pinpointing the source of this peculiarity. She seemed to no longer mind Lu Changsheng’s close gestures. Moreover, their intimate behavior was strikingly similar to that of some couples or Dao Companions seen occasionally on the street. At this moment, Lu Changsheng noticed a nearby Tianyi Pavilion and said aloud, “The dresses here are quite nice. Qing Yi, want to try one?” “No need.” Chu Qingyi gently shook her head. “Qing Yi, don’t you usually have hobbies of your own?” Lu Changsheng didn’t insist and casually asked. “Practicing swordsmanship.” “Just sword practice and cultivation?” Lu Changsheng clicked his tongue and commented, “No wonder Qing Yi has achieved such greatness. But if life consists only of cultivation and swordsmanship, don’t you find it lonely and boring?” Chu Qingyi glanced at Lu Changsheng, remained silent for a moment, and then softly said, “Morning spurns Bodhi Evening seeks Great Luo, perilous passes and treacherous paths disdain solitude. Lifelong love for a seven-foot sword, cuts through my illusions to reveal my true self.” “?” Lu Changsheng hadn’t expected his little ploy to be seen through by Chu Qingyi, who countered him so resolutely. Indeed, anyone who cultivated to Core Formation wasn’t foolish. Chu Qingyi had already moved past her initial lost and uncertain state and knew how to handle him now. But even the fiercest woman can be won over with persistent affection. If one is willing to invest time and endure embarrassment, surely the beauty could be swept off her feet. “For us cultivators, the purpose is naturally the pursuit of the Great Dao. The Sword Dao is undoubtedly alluring; I too once devoted myself wholeheartedly to swordsmanship.” “But later, I realized that the world is brimming with countless wonders and beautiful things. If one channels all their efforts into cultivation alone, neglecting and missing out on such experiences, they would regret it deeply in the end.” Lu Changsheng said softly. Chu Qingyi: “???” This isn’t the same man with a harem and countless descendants, is it? How did he go from being obsessed with swordsmanship? But thinking about Lu Changsheng’s swordsmanship heritage and the techniques he’d demonstrated before, she felt skeptical yet slightly convinced. Perhaps he had wholeheartedly pursued swordsmanship in his early years but later abandoned it to cultivate the Talisman Path and focus on his family? Wait, no, when he helped her break through Core Formation, he didn’t seem to be a Talisman Cultivator either… Chu Qingyi was somewhat baffled. Still, she realized that Lu Changsheng’s words were likely an attempt to use the Sword Dao as an analogy to sway her perspective. “The world may indeed hold much beauty, but for us cultivators, cultivation is the foundation. Being too distracted will squander one’s lifespan, ultimately hindering progress and resulting in genuine regret.” “Moreover, Qing Yi isn’t entirely uninterested in other things outside of swordsmanship and cultivation. It’s simply a matter of priorities and choice.” Chu Qingyi responded in a low voice.
