To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

It must be said, even for a Daoist cultivator, people do judge others by their appearance.

Lu Yuan and his companions found an inn and showed their respective tokens. As a result, when the inn arranged their accommodations, the Shangguan siblings were given single rooms with courtyards.

As for Lu Yuan and Qi Yun, they were given simple single rooms.

This was the difference in treatment between an unknown remote dezong and a famous aristocratic family known throughout the world.

“Brother Lu, my courtyard is actually quite large with several rooms. Why don’t you stay with me in the same courtyard?”

Upon seeing Lu Yuan’s simple room, Shangguan Haimoon frowned and immediately had a thought, enthusiastically inviting him.

Actually, Miss Shangguan was initially quite resistant and opposed to her father’s request.

After all, even though she was born in an aristocratic family and knew that she could not decide her own marriage, she had mentally prepared herself to sacrifice for the family and marry someone else for political reasons.

But when the day truly came, she still couldn’t accept it calmly.

However, after Shangguan Haimoon arrived in Luyang and saw the man her father had chosen for her, she changed her mind.

The reason was simple – she was attracted to Lu Yuan.

It should be mentioned that although Lu Yuan’s body wasn’t exceptionally handsome, it wasn’t ugly either. It could be described as ordinary with a touch of elegance.

However, after years of martial arts training and strengthening his body, he naturally exuded an air of prowess.

At the same time, he studied Dao Law, cultivated his mind and body, and was influenced by the essence of his inner strength after refining his jade pendant. This naturally gave him an ethereal and transcendent aura.

These two auras combined with his acceptable appearance made him seem extraordinary and otherworldly to outsiders, like the divine heroes of legends.

Well, it might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much.

These appearances were secondary.

In terms of personal strength, Lu Yuan was a pinnacle martial arts expert on the verge of breaking through the Inborn Realm.

As for his status, he was the Marquis of Luvanz and the Pinzxi General, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers and overseeing the lands of two prefectures, making him a regional overlord.

How could any young woman in her prime, ready for marriage, not be smitten with such a divine and outstanding man after getting to know him?

So after meeting and getting to know him, Shangguan Haimoon’s feelings towards Lu Yuan changed from slight resistance to admiration.

She couldn’t wait for them to become a good couple, flying together like a pair of wings.

If she missed such a perfect match, she really didn’t know where else she could find a better one.

Unfortunately, this Marquis of Luyang didn’t seem too enthusiastic about her advances and always responded indifferently. This made Miss Shangguan feel lost and unwilling.

At this moment.

Lu Yuan immediately refused the invitation: “No, as cultivators, we abide by the rules of cause and effect. Since Ziyun, the host, has arranged this accommodation for me, I should, as a guest, naturally follow along.

Moreover, I am a man and Miss Shangguan is a woman. In light of preserving

Miss Shangguan’s reputation, it’s best to maintain some distance between us.”

He was just joking. He couldn’t wait to be alone, get rid of the Shangguan siblings, and have some peace and quiet.

At this point, Shangguan Haimoon’s intentions were clearly impure. Why would he willingly throw himself into the mouth of a tigress who seemed to want to devour him?

Although Lu Yuan didn’t care much about his own innocence, he didn’t want to lose it at this moment either.

“Alright then.” Shangguan Haimoon’s plan failed, and she left looking a bit hurt and angry, carrying her luggage.

“Ai, little sister.”

Shangguan Guangbai, who was nearby, sighed helplessly and said to Lu Yuan, “My little sister lost her composure. Brother Lu, my sister and I will go put away our luggage first. After settling in, we’ll meet up with you two later for dinner.”

“Alright, Brother Shangguan, go ahead.” Lu Yuan nodded. After the other party left, he turned around and walked towards his room.

On the way, Qi Yun looked at the backs of the Shangguan siblings, then looked at Lu Yuan and said, “Daoist Lu, I think Miss Shangguan is an exquisite beauty with remarkable talent and martial arts skills, making her a perfect match.”

But faced with such a perfect match and her active advances, you demonstrate resistance and rejection, which I think is a waste of a good opportunity.”

Throughout the journey from Dongting Prefecture to Yuzhang Prefecture, Qi Yun had noticed Shangguan Haimoon’s displays of affection and care for Lu

Yuan.

A young lady from an aristocratic family showing such attentiveness to a man, her love was not hidden at all.

However, Lu Yuan either avoided the topic or played dumb, never really responding.

Seeing this, even Qi Yun the Daoist felt it was a pity to waste such a good match.

He couldn’t help but mention it.

“Daoist Qi, Miss Shangguan is indeed excellent, but she may not be the best match for me.”

Lu Yuan glanced at the Daoist who was becoming somewhat meddlesome and gently reminded him, “Although I am now the Pingxi General with tens of thousands of soldiers under my command, I am ultimately just a local defender.”

However, Miss Shangguan’s father, the General Who Conquers the West, represents the central court.

He sent his daughter to me, intending to arrange a marriage alliance. Whether this is good or bad, and what kind of scheme is hidden behind it, everything needs careful consideration..”
