If someone did cause trouble at this time, they would most likely be met with the wrath of the City Lord Mansion, showing no mercy whatsoever.

After all, during extraordinary times, heavy measures must be taken!

…

At sunset, the City Lord Mansion.

When Zhou Shen handed over the taxes he had collected today to the commander, the commander couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction. Indeed, it was easier to get things done with a local snake, with high efficiency and no mistakes.

Although it was not yet the time of xiamao, the commander allowed Zhou Shen to leave early as a reward for his loyalty and diligence.

After all, he understood this method of handling people, and Zhou Shen naturally wouldn’t refuse such kindness.

On his way back, Zhou Shen couldn’t help but think about Liang Sheng, whom he had met previously. After all, even when facing the Ancestor, he had never encountered such a great fortune omen like he did today.

He was impatient to meet Jin Quanxiu, and at this time, Jin Quanxiu was still leisurely brewing tea.

Seeing Zhou Shen rush in, Jin Quanxiu couldn’t help but chuckle indulgently.

“You little monkey, you’re over a hundred years old. Don’t you know how to take it easy? Why are you so impetuous with me? You’re not like this outside.”

“Ancestor, what’s the point of pretending in front of you? I’ll be as comfortable as I want to be. Are you going to abandon me for it?”

As he spoke, Zhou Shen drank the other cup of tea that Jin Quanxiu had prepared and then directly asked: “Ancestor, do you know Liang Sheng, the senior from Fenghe Road Shenyi Building?”

Hearing this, Jin Quanxiu’s body straightened up, and he stared intently at Zhou Shen, “Little Shen, have you met him?”

Jin Quanxiu was somewhat nervous at this moment because he had previously hinted that he was considering taking Zhou Shen as a disciple, but Liang Sheng had not responded at the time.

Jin Quanxiu had no intention of taking on more disciples before, partly because he hadn’t met anyone who moved him, and partly because of Liang Sheng’s indifferent attitude. The deaths of his three disciples only added to the wound, so naturally, he didn’t have the heart for it anymore.

But Zhou Shen was different. After hearing that Zhou Shen had met Liang Sheng, the idea re-emerged in Jin Quanxiu’s heart, with ripples spreading like waves on a lake, making him rather anxious.

Zhou Shen didn’t expect the Ancestor to react so strongly. He even thought there might be something wrong with Liang Sheng, so he quickly relayed the details of their encounter.

“You mean you had a strong omen of great fortune in your heart before you met Liang Sheng?”

Jin Quanxiu knew about the Zhou Family Bloodline Ability, so he couldn’t help but feel a little excited. It seemed that there was a possibility for him to take Zhou Shen under his wing; otherwise, why would he feel such an omen of great fortune?

Jin Quanxiu’s condition hadn’t been great before, but time was the best medicine for healing wounds. However, feelings of longing were only buried deep in his heart and would sometimes be suddenly brought up by certain events.

For example, Zhou Shen would sometimes remind him of his disciple Shen Wuque. So the more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Was there really hope for him to accept Zhou Shen as his disciple?

This made him somewhat lost in thought. Afterward, he let Zhou Shen leave because his heart couldn’t calm down.

Thinking of this, Jin Quanxiu decided not to hesitate anymore and went straight into the dark, sneaking to Liang Sheng’s residence.

“Senior.”

When Liang Sheng saw Jin Quanxiu, he wasn’t too surprised. Having seen Zhou Shen today, he could somewhat guess Jin Quanxiu’s purpose for coming.

“Senior, I heard that you met Zhou Shen from the Zhou Family today? What do you think of him?”

“What do you mean by that?”

“I don’t mean to hide anything from you, Senior. This young man actually reminds me of my second disciple. Before I met him, I thought my life in the Immortal City would be uneventful.

However, after meeting him, I couldn’t sit still, and I wanted to take him as my disciple to inherit the Dan Ding Lineage.

Previously, I didn’t dare to tell you this upfront. But now that you have met him, I’m sure you can see his temperament, so I had the audacity to have such an idea. Would you grant me this request, senior?”

Upon hearing this, Liang Sheng did not play coy as he too was somewhat surprised that there could be such similar-minded people in the world?

Furthermore, if Zhou Shen could make Jin Quanxiu happier, why wouldn’t he be willing to help? In fact, Liang Sheng felt somewhat guilty, thinking that he had been somewhat neglectful of his Master’s feelings before.

He assumed that with all these years Jin Quanxiu had lived, he should have seen through the cruelty of Cultivation and controlled his emotions well. But in the end, it turned out that it was just his own wishful thinking.

When Jin Quanxiu saw Liang Sheng nodding in agreement, he couldn’t help but rejoice, “Then when should I pick a time and bring that young man back to formally join my Dan Ding Lineage?”

Seeing Jin Quanxiu’s eager expression, Liang Sheng still shook his head, causing Jin Quanxiu’s face to change. Fortunately, Liang Sheng’s next words dispelled his concerns.

“No need, just accept him as your disciple directly. He doesn’t have to meet me. Under the current situation, it’s better for us to have less contact.”

Jin Quanxiu couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed, but at least he could accept Zhou Shen as his disciple. That was a pleasant surprise.

However, just at that moment, Liang Sheng suddenly took out a Pill Refining Furnace.

A Spirit Tool Level Pill Refining Furnace!

Seeing this, Jin Quanxiu’s heart was overjoyed. How could someone in the Dan Ding Sect not learn refining pills? With such a Spirit Tool Pill Furnace, their progress would be doubly effective.

“Although I cannot meet him, he is, after all, a disciple of my Dan Ding Sect. Consider this a gift from me.”
