The next morning, Lu Chuan and Lu Qianqiu arrived at Qianqiu Inn hand in hand.

The sun had just risen, and the people from the Immortal Gate who were resting at the inn had not yet woken up.

Lu Chuan, who had already disguised himself as Meng Qing, sat in the hall with Lu Qianqiu.

Lu Qianqiu looked at the unfamiliar face in front of her and reached out to pinch Lu Chuan's face.

"Young master, do you really have to disguise yourself like this?"

Lu Chuan could hear a hint of reluctance in her voice, allowing her delicate hand to pinch his face.

"Well. Sister Qiu doesn't like this face?"

Lu Qianqiu said in a sweet voice, "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that it feels very different from the real appearance of Young Master Lu Chuan. We finally met after so long, and I don't know when we'll meet again next time. I want to look at you more."

As she spoke, she even puffed up her cheeks, clearly acting spoiled towards Lu Chuan.

After their reunion yesterday, the two of them made up and their relationship had progressed further.

Everything happened too suddenly, and Lu Qianqiu still had some fear in her heart, afraid that Young Master Lu Chuan was just comforting her, afraid that it was all just a dream.

In the past six months when she wasn't by his side, Young Master had changed a lot.

He seemed more mature and capable, able to stand on his own.

Knowing that she was just a maid, Lu Qianqiu didn't ask for much. She just wanted a promise, to know when he would come to see her next time.

Seeing Lu Qianqiu sulking, Lu Chuan quickly comforted her, "Sister Qiu, I did make a mistake before, but I will write to you frequently in the future. When I have time, I will come and find you to play."

"Hmph, that sounds nice, but who knows about you, Young Master. I won't always stay in Wu Country. After the business association is established here, I will go to other countries."

Lu Qianqiu took out a special jade stone of emerald color from her storage ring and handed it to Lu Chuan.

Slowly, she said, "Young Master, you can keep this."

The shape of this jade stone was very unique, with a protrusion on one side, which looked abrupt. The other sides were smooth and glossy, and there was a faint spiritual energy around it. It was obviously not an ordinary item.

Taking the jade stone, Lu Chuan asked in confusion, "What kind of Spirit Treasure is this?"

"This is a Instant Transmission Stone."

Lu Qianqiu took out another Instant Transmission Stone, which also had a special shape, but it was different from the protrusion on Lu Chuan's hand. The jade stone in her hand had a depression on one side.

The depression and the protrusion fit together perfectly, forming a larger jade stone, or rather, they were originally one piece of jade stone.

Lu Qianqiu explained, "Young Master, you know about Voice Transmission Talismans, right? The Instant Transmission Stone is similar to that in function, both can transmit text messages in a short period of time. As long as you hold the one in your hand and think of what you want to say to me in your heart, I will receive the message with the other one. This way, even if we are at the ends of the earth, we can still keep in touch. If Young Master wants to come find me, just let me know in advance, and I will tell you where I am."

Lu Chuan nodded. This jade stone was like a telephone on Blue Star. He didn't expect that there would be such a Spirit Treasure in the cultivation world.

Lu Qianqiu gave herself the Instant Transmission Stone because she wanted to chat with him frequently and alleviate her loneliness.

"I will keep in touch with you often. When I have time, I will come find you."

Lu Chuan said firmly, showing a strong sense of masculinity. Although the face was someone else's, Lu Qianqiu knew that the person speaking was Young Master Lu Chuan.

Lu Qianqiu's heart beat violently, unable to suppress the smile on her lips. The exhaustion from the past six months in the business association had all disappeared, and she felt light and carefree.

Just as Lu Qianqiu was about to tightly embrace Lu Chuan and give him some rewards, a cough came from the hall.

"Cough, cough."

Everyone from the Immortal Gate had gathered in the hall, ready to set off.

Wu Dian saw Lu Chuan and Lu Qianqiu sitting together, their bodies close to each other, and his good mood in the morning was ruined. He spoke to stop the two of them.

"Meng Qing is ready to leave!" Wu Dian joked, "Su Lianlian is still here, so you should restrain yourself."

Su Lianlian had no good impression of Meng Qing. This person had been pestering her unilaterally. When she was mentioned, she didn't respond and calmly walked out of the inn.

Luo Li glanced at Lu Chuan and saw him sitting so close to the beautiful Lu Qianqiu.

There was a hint of complexity in her heart for a moment, feeling like something familiar had been taken away by someone else. She followed Su Lianlian and left the inn.

Seeing that everyone from the Immortal Gate was nearby, Lu Qianqiu didn't say much.

She could only remind him, "Mr. Meng, be careful on the road."

Her voice regained its coldness, no longer the gentle and soft tone she used when talking alone with Lu Chuan.

The gentle and caring older sister figure that Lu Qianqiu had temporarily disappeared. The current Lu Qianqiu was the boss of the Qianqiu Business Association.

Lu Qianqiu's tenderness was only reserved for two people, one was Lu Chuan, and the other was Lu Chuan's deceased mother.

Lu Chuan knew that Lu Qianqiu was genuinely worried about him, and warmth rose in his heart as he tightly held Lu Qianqiu's hand.

"I know, don't worry."

Two of Wu Dian's subordinates whistled and made a fuss when they saw this.

The new waiter who had just come to replace them came out to check when he heard the noise in the hall.

Lu Qianqiu was well-known in the Qianqiu Business Association, and when the waiter saw Lu Qianqiu sitting so close to a man, he couldn't believe his eyes.

Rubbing his eyes, he saw an even more unbelievable scene. The man took the initiative to hold Lu Qianqiu's hand, and Lu Qianqiu had a shy expression with flushed cheeks.

There was a rumor in the Qianqiu Business Association that the boss, Lu Qianqiu, was a lesbian and only liked women.

Because no matter what kind of man pursued her, she showed no interest.

Just from the suitors that the waiter knew about, there were cultivators, legitimate sons of prominent families, and charming actors. These were all outstanding young talents.

Lu Qianqiu didn't even bother to acknowledge them.

Over time, rumors spread in the Qianqiu Business Association that the boss hated men. But after today, this rumor no longer circulated. Instead, it was replaced by the news that Boss Lu already had a man in her life.

In the city of Shengle, countless ambitious young men who had pursued Lu Qianqiu in vain shed tears in the dead of night.

But that's a story for later. After bidding farewell to Lu Qianqiu, Lu Chuan left the inn and followed the main force of the Immortal Gate to the destination of this mission, Azure Rock Town.

This was where the real danger lay, and unexpected events might occur. The original story that Lu Chuan knew was already different from reality.

He couldn't afford to be careless, so Lu Chuan remained fully focused on the road, observing the surroundings.

In the world of cultivation, cities as prosperous as Shengle were rare. Most towns were small settlements, with only the town center being slightly lively.

They passed through several towns along the way, and Azure Rock Town, their destination, was the same.

They traveled at full speed all morning, and when the sun reached its zenith, close to noon, they arrived near a large forest.

"We're almost there. Take a look at the map and see which direction Azure Rock Town is in." Wu Dian commanded his two subordinates.

The two subordinates took out the map and began studying it. According to the map, Azure Rock Town was built around a small mountain, and the villagers lived at the foot of the mountain.

The name Azure Rock Town came from the small mountain, which was covered in blue stones.

The two subordinates looked up to see which direction had a mountain nearby.

Surrounded by forests, desolate and uninhabited, their line of sight was blocked by tall trees, and they could only see the mountain top to the north.

They concluded that Azure Rock Town should be in the north and reported to their boss, "Boss Wu, Azure Rock Town should be in the north."

Wu Dian clicked his tongue, "What do you mean 'should be'? If it's not in the north, we'll have made the trip for nothing. I'll make you regret it."

After saying that, he walked quickly towards the north, with everyone following behind.

Only Luo Li remained in place, his face serious.

Lu Chuan, who had been observing the surroundings, noticed Luo Li's abnormality and asked, "What's wrong?"

Luo Li reacted and said, "Ah! Senior Meng, it's nothing. It's just... just that I have a creepy feeling in this area, and I feel a chill in my body. Hahaha, I'm sorry, I said something strange. Let's go quickly."

Watching Luo Li's figure, Lu Chuan couldn't help but sigh. This was Son of Fortune's premonition of danger.

Luo Li's feeling was warning him of the danger ahead and reminding him to be careful.

This sect mission was far from being as simple as it seemed.

It revealed the complexity of Evil Cultivators and the tip of the iceberg of a thousand-year plan.
