Longevity: Starting from Refining Gu-Chapter 50: Encountering Taichu is the fortune of my lifetime.

```

Seeing Chen Qing refuse, Xiang Baiyu sat down on a piece of dead wood nearby and began to eat happily.

It seemed like he sincerely intended to disgust himself.

He reached into his arms, pulled out a piece of dry cake, took a few bites, and waved his hand to summon a breeze, catching a handful of dew.

The dry cake paired with dew water actually tasted a bit ethereal.

Three days later, Chen Qing lay lazily on the green stone by the riverbank, a willow twig in his mouth, and turned over in boredom, "Xiang Baiyu, is your information reliable or not?"

Xiang Baiyu smoothed out the scarf in his hand, "What, can’t wait any longer?"

Chen Qing said, "No, it’s just that I’ve never seen a small cult leader doing laundry, it’s intriguing!"

"Can’t a Qi Refinement level nine person be dignified?"

Xiang Baiyu said, "Sorry, our Taiping Sect’s doctrine is equality for all."

Over the past couple of days, Chen Qing had learned about some of the origins of the Jiguang Sect from Xiang Baiyu.

Other cults were labeled as such because they committed evil deeds or attempted to overthrow the government.

Jiguang Sect was different, it was simply too powerful!

Of course, the doctrine of the Jiguang Sect was also an issue.

The opening line of Jiguang Sect’s doctrine was: Immortals are immortal, bandits never stop.

Yes, you heard it right, the ultimate goal of the Jiguang Sect was to hunt immortals.

A cult that could boldly shout such a foolish slogan and still survive until now was quite remarkable.

Another three days passed; it was December 15th.

The Sword Abyss should now be in the fiercest contention.

After they finished fighting, he planned to ambush the people from Lotus Cave.

Snatch the sword Gu and flee, delightful!

Such a childish trick as a seventy-thirty split, not only did Chen Qing not believe it, but Xiang Baiyu didn’t either.

Chen Qing stayed here solely to obtain Xiang Baiyu’s information.

Under the bright moonlight, Chen Qing sought a secluded spot, preparing to attend tonight’s gathering.

When the moon reached the zenith, Chen Qing sat on a tall pine tree, his consciousness entering the bronze mask.

Just as he settled in, Chen Qing scanned around, seeing there were still three people with no new members. He was about to speak when he noticed a new woman appear beside Hu Yao.

Her face was unclear, clad in an elegant and stylish gauze dress, three phoenix hairpins in her hair, exuding an aura of dignity and elegance.

She sat gracefully in her seat, composed and demure.

She first glanced at the surroundings, then carefully assessed the four attendees, noticing Chen Qing exuded a steadfast and imposing presence.

The other three were steadily pressured by Chen Qing’s aura, cautiously watching Chen Qing’s reaction.

She focused seriously on Chen Qing, realizing he was the true master here.

After discerning this, she gently stood up, bowed toward Chen Qing, and said, "Destiny guided me here. Meeting you all is my good fortune."

Her voice was soft and gentle, yet not lacking in grace and dignity.

Chen Qing casually placed his right hand on the table, tapping it rhythmically.

This girl was sharp!

Just one glance and she figured out that he, Chen Qing, was indeed in charge!

Destiny, fortune, her words were somewhat peculiar.

Xu Yaofeng, seeing Chen Qing’s indifferent reaction, quickly said, "Senior Taichu, this should be a lost bronze ghost mask that’s been rediscovered."

The new girl curiously observed Chen Qing’s every move.

Taichu?

This title sounded quite ancient, evoking a sense of distance in time.

Xu Yaofeng soon took on the role of the ’gathering host,’ asking questions Chen Qing disdained to ask.

"Fellow Daoist, how should we address you?"

The girl slightly bowed to Chen Qing, "You may call me Fu Luo."

Chen Qing said, "Fu Luo, is it? It’s our first meeting; I can offer you a gift."

Fu Luo looked at Xu Yaofeng, who wore a silver mask. Xu Yaofeng immediately responded, "Senior Taichu can unveil all the mysteries of Gu. As long as it pertains to Gu, you can inquire with Senior Taichu."

"The first time is a gift from Senior Taichu to you."

"If you need further guidance in the future, a tenth in offering is required!"

Before Xu Yaofeng finished speaking, Fu Luo asked, "Is it because of karma?"

Xu Yaofeng, Hu Yao, and Murong Lang were all astonished.

Murong Lang halted his folding fan momentarily, Xu Yaofeng was slightly stunned, while Hu Yao straightforwardly asked, "How do you know?"

Fu Luo opened her hand, revealing a red spirit Gu the size of a peanut. This spirit Gu appeared extremely cute and chubby, exuding a prosperous aura. Just seeing it made one feel at ease.

"It guided me here."

"Being able to come here is my good fortune."

"Since it is a blessing, there must be an unreachable majestic presence here."

"Faced with such existence, even I cannot bear that karma."

When Chen Qing saw the Gu, he was extremely shocked!

Could this be a spiritual item Gu?

Then what terrifying entities were even higher quality Gu?

[Spiritual Luck Gu]

Quality: Ninth Transformation

Life Span: 18/300

Effect: Extends good fortune, brings continuous luck.

Growth Requirements: None

Growth Progress: 100/100

Promotion Requirements: Luck Gu and white deer in one box.

A simple description, without any trait, yet it shocked Chen Qing more than Gu with traits.

Could such Gu exist in the world?

It seemed he truly needed to travel ten thousand miles in the future to encounter myriad Gu and expand his knowledge.

Tapping his finger on the table, Chen Qing spoke calmly, "Extends good fortune, brings continuous luck. The Luck Gu, in the realm of spiritual item Gu, is quite a rarity."

The other three were astonished, looking at the Gu in Fu Luo’s hand. This was a legendary treasure they had never even heard of.

Although it had no combat power, the ability to bring good luck was incredibly absurd, refreshing their understanding.

Xu Yaofeng said, "Abnormal people?"

Gu were self-bonded at birth with living beings, hence referred to as abnormal people.

This type of Gu generally had peculiar characteristics.

Fu Luo shook her head, "My family is not considered abnormal."

Chen Qing immediately had an understanding; being able to preserve such Gu indicated a significant background.

Having such Gu, yet maintaining such good manners and courtesy, was truly rare.

Fu Luo continued, "I’ve never heard the tune Senior Taichu played; is it your composition, sage?"

Chen Qing thought, of course, you’ve never heard it, "A tune long lost to the world, this melody is called ’Mountain and Stream.’"

Only now did the other three participants realize Chen Qing had been playing a tune with his finger taps all along!

Fu Luo smiled and said, "’Mountain and Stream,’ such an elegant name. However, the tune itself is even more refined, embodying a sense of detached integrity and noble virtue."

"The melody and name complement each other, stirring one’s soul."

"Having heard it now, I consider myself to have retrieved a precious memory from the vast ocean."

The other three felt as if they had a ’casting pearls before swine’ sign on their foreheads.

Fu Luo stood, slightly bowed to Chen Qing, and gracefully saluted, making people feel like a spring breeze, "Meeting Senior Taichu is truly my great fortune."

Meanwhile, Chen Qing was pondering other questions. He had merely tapped his finger, yet she could discern the meaning within the melody. Despite her young age.

Who exactly was this girl?
