Chapter 572: Chapter 241 Doing Business with Ice Castle_3

If it was just for a successful Foundation Establishment, it would be too extravagant to hold a grand ceremony.

Not only could it not enhance their reputation, but it could also invite ridicule.

Therefore, this ceremony was only limited to the high-ranking members of the Luo Tian Creed.

During the ceremony, the high-order cultivators of the Luo Tian Creed all congratulated Duan Feng.

Most of the praise was heartfelt.

After all, the addition of another Foundation Establishment Cultivator in the Creed would make it stronger.

Those seeking protection within the group would find it relatively simpler to reach Foundation Establishment in the future.

Even if it wasn’t like “when a single person succeeds, everyone in their vicinity benefits,” it was still a mutually beneficial situation.

A small number of them, while sincerely congratulating, harbored feelings of envy and jealousy.

After all, Duan Feng was previously only recognized for his strength, not his realm.

There were still many who had a higher cultivation level than him.

Like Sima Huiniang, Murong Qinglian, Bian Zhen, and even Min Longyu, who had reached the Finalization of the Qi Refinement Stage.

Unexpectedly, he was the one who took the lead and was at the forefront of the Great Dao Path.

As for the thoughts of those below him,

Luo Chen didn’t care and didn’t bother guessing.

In his opinion, Duan Feng’s Foundation Establishment only had benefits and no disadvantages for him.

This way, the Luo Tian Creed would always have a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator presiding over it, and he could spend more time cultivating.

Time!

Just one word, yet it was the real criterion that differentiated a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from a Qi Refinement Cultivator.

Qi Refinement Cultivators always lived in the moment.

Their concept of time is usually in days and months, and at most, a few fleeting years.

But in the eyes of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, the concept of time is inherently compressed.

Luo Chen deeply felt this along his journey.

Whether it was Boss Liu of the Spirit Medicine Hall, or Tian Xingzi of the Zhenlong Black Market, when they talked about something related to time,

They always used words such as “very soon,” “won’t take much time,” and such.

Initially, he thought it might be just a few days.

Only later did he realize that this “very soon” could often mean several months or even years.

Back then, he had noticed that high-order cultivators had a radically different concept of time from lower-order cultivators.

After he reached Foundation Establishment,

He felt this more profoundly.

A period of closed-door cultivation could be one year, or three years.

She hoarsely said, “Thank you.”

Three words, yet they were filled with complex emotions.

Luo Chen had no idea if she was thanking him for setting her up with Duan Feng, or for helping Duan Feng.

Luo Chen accepted her gratitude nonchalantly.

Feng Xia is a good woman, and her cultivation level isn’t low. She was one of those who had advanced to the Ninth Level Qi Refinement last year in the Luo Tian Creed.

Whether she has hopes of reaching Foundation Establishment, Luo Chen didn’t know.

But she is definitely a good match for Duan Feng!

Or to put it another way, this is what Duan Feng owes her.

After all, everyone has seen Feng Xia’s devotion to Duan Feng along the way.

After chatting for a while, Luo Chen left Duan Feng alone.

There were still many friends who wanted to chat with Duan Feng.

Meanwhile, he himself went to a side hall.

Someone had been waiting there for some time.

“Lil Liu, are you getting used to life in the Luo Tian Creed?”

Since joining the Luo Tian Creed, Xu Xiao Liu had lost his previous street-smart raggedness and gained a bit of maturity and steadiness.

In front of Luo Chen, he was increasingly respectful.

“Chairman, everything is good. It’s much better than when I was a rogue cultivator.”

Luo Chen shook his head, “That’s only because you didn’t want to be restrained before. Otherwise, with your relationship with your uncle, which Foundation Establishment Force wouldn’t want to recruit you?”

Xu Xiao Liu smiled bitterly, his expression somewhat complicated.

He used to be naive, thinking that being a rogue cultivator and having no worries or restrictions brought him a carefree life.

But some things really are helpless.

The complexity of his expression suggested that he might have a winding story.

However, Luo Chen wasn’t interested in knowing those details.

He flipped his wrist.

A jade vial emitting a chill landed in his hand.

Under his control using spirit power, it slowly floated in front of Xu Xiao Liu.

“Your uncle Xu Jingnian seems to have a good relationship with Elder Shi Boying of the Binglan Palace, right?”

Xu Xiao Liu looked surprisingly at the jade vial in front of him.

He nodded, “There are some connections, Chairman. What do you want me to do?”

“It’s simple, just ask your uncle to deliver this Jade Dew Pill to Elder Shi. Tell him that someone wants to do business with the Ice Castle!”

Jade Dew Pill!

Xu Xiao Liu’s eyes widened instantly.
