Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

“Young Master, shall we return now?”

Jiang Yuan gazed in the direction of the Qianyuan Kingdom.

Although the Qianyuan Kingdom was countless miles away at this moment, there was a teleportation formation in Heavenly Origin City that led directly to Yunxiao City.

In this way, one could return to Qianyuan Kingdom within a day or two.

If I were to return now, it would be easy to clash with the Imperial Family of Qianyuan.

Once a large-scale conflict occurred, some power would inevitably be revealed.

If so, it would be better to practice here and digest my cultivation materials.

The spiritual energy of the Supreme Mystery Sect is no different from that of this place after all.

Once my power is sufficient, I can naturally stage a coup and let Zhou Ying take the throne.

By doing so, there’s a high probability of obtaining a qi movement seed.

It might also save the Supreme Mystery Sect from the crisis several months later.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan made up his mind.

So, he shook his head: “No, let’s not return first! Since we’ve come out, there’s no need to rush back! Let’s practice here!”

“As the Young Master wishes!” Shu Xiaoxiao nodded.

The next moment.

With a slight change in Jiang Yuan’s thoughts, the two of them and Birdy Huang appeared inside this mountain, in an underground cavern.

The stalactites in the cavern emitted a faint glow.

This was the faint light emitted by some kind of crystal stone in the darkness.

In the eyes of cultivators like them, this faint light was as bright as daylight.

Splash splash——

The sound of water flow reached their ears.

“You had chosen a place for seclusion in advance, Young Master?” Shu Xiaoxiao smiled as she listened to the sound of the water.

Jiang Yuan laughed: “Of course, this is our place of seclusion for some time.”

“Great! As long as I’m with the Young Master, anywhere is perfect!” Shu Xiaoxiao showed a bright smile, her eyes curved in joy.

She then removed her embroidered shoes, revealing her bare feet.

She slowly moved to the edge of the underground river.

“Young Master, this water is so refreshing!” Shu Xiaoxiao said joyfully.

As she spoke, she began to pat the water surface with her toes.

“So comfortable!”

Jiang Yuan laughed, and walked towards the river bank: “How can the water in the underground river not be refreshing?”

He then bent down, scooped up some fresh water and splashed it on his face.

“Indeed, it’s very refreshing! So comfortable!”

Seeing this, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly retracted her feet, her cheeks turning slightly red.

“Young Master, don’t wash your face downstream!”

“Er…” Jiang Yuan was startled, then realized.

Shu Xiaoxiao had just washed her feet upstream.

Then he shook his head with a smile: “A cultivator is devoid of dirt. I don’t mind!”

“Young Master, I’ll wash your feet for you!”

Shu Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Yuan softly said: “There’s no need. We cultivators are free from impurities. Practice is more important!”

Shu Xiaoxiao quickly got up: “Young Master, practice won’t suffer because of a little while! Washing your feet is a way to relax the mind. A relaxed mind will enhance your practice efficiency!”

“Where did these bizarre ideas come from?”

Jiang Yuan shook his head, about to stand up.

But Shu Xiaoxiao had already come to his side, putting her hands on Jiang Yuan’s shoulders.

“Please sit down, Young Master!”

Feeling the pressure on his shoulders, Jiang Yuan stopped refusing, nodding: “Alright then!”

He then sat beside the underground river. His shoes were quickly removed by Shu Xiaoxiao.

“Young Master, you are indeed free from dust and impurities!”

Shu Xiaoxiao looked up and smiled.

Jiang Yuan: “…”

“Chirp chirp——”

Birdy Huang, seeing this, prepared to speak.

A sword energy from Shu Xiaoxiao’s hand shot out and hit her directly.

“Ah——”

With a shriek, Birdy Huang fell into the underground river.

“Bloop bloop!”

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan immediately smiled.

“Young Master, how does it feel? Comfortable?”

Shu Xiaoxiao squatted nearby, gently massaging Jiang Yuan’s foot.

Jiang Yuan closed his eyes slightly.

“Quite comfortable indeed!”

“Then shall I wash your feet on a regular basis from now on, Young Master?”

“Alright!” Jiang Yuan nodded.

About half a cup of tea’s time later.

“That’s enough!” Jiang Yuan said.

“Hmm!”

Shu Xiaoxiao also slightly nodded, then took her hands back.

Just now, at Jiang Yuan’s request, she had been squeezing hard to massage his foot, so her fingers were slightly sore.

She then took out a handkerchief, wiped the water off her hands first, and then wiped Jiang Yuan’s.

Jiang Yuan got up and walked around the cavern, his feet on the rock floor.

“Indeed, it’s much more relieving!”

Shu Xiaoxiao’s eyes curved in a smile: “I told you, isn’t it logical!”

“Yes, it is!”

Jiang Yuan nodded.

He sighed in his heart, having such a maid was really comforting.

I never had such a luxury in my last life!

He then tossed these thoughts away and sat cross-legged on a rock.

Seeing this, Shu Xiaoxiao didn’t say anything, but gestured to Birdy Huang.

Birdy Huang glanced at Jiang Yuan and saw that he had already closed his eyes.

So, she reluctantly came to Shu Xiaoxiao’s side.

Shu Xiaoxiao picked her up and put her on her shoulder.

“Don’t disturb the Young Master when he’s practicing. Come to the other side with me!”

Her voice echoed softly in Birdy Huang’s ears.

Once they reached the other side, Shu Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and began to extract the power of the earth pulse, refining and devouring it, as she slowly practiced.

Meanwhile, bits and pieces of true spirit converged around her, merging into her spiritual platform.

“Elder Sister, wouldn’t it be better if we practiced in those mineral veins again?” Birdy Huang’s voice echoed next to Shu Xiaoxiao.

“No!” Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head: “More covert practice and extraction of too much energy can easily be detected! Didn’t you see how we changed the spiritual stone mine every few days?”
