529: Shi Chenghua suddenly realized!

After speaking, Shi Chenghua suddenly seemed to remember something:

"No! There's one more person! But it seems no one knows what his cultivation level is."

"Who? What's his name?"

"Let me think... His name is... I don't seem to know his name, I only remember his surname is Lu. Everyone calls him Senior Lu."

Yang Yuansi's heart swelled with joy. This Lu Hao was, in all likelihood, the person he was looking for on this trip. He had finally found him!

But he still said with a calm expression:

"Lu Hao? You don't know his cultivation level? Why is that?"

"This Senior Lu is said to be very powerful, far stronger than the Pavilion Master. But no one in the entire Wuji Pavilion has ever seen him go all out, so naturally, no one knows Senior Lu's true cultivation level."

Shi Chenghua pondered for a moment:

"So that's how it is... In that case, my disciple, go do something for me."

"Master, what is it?"

"I have a mirror here. You just need to hang it on your waist, then walk past that Lu Hao, and come back!"

Shi Chenghua scratched his head, a bit confused:

"Master, what are you doing? Why are you so concerned about Senior Lu's cultivation level? What does it have to do with us?"

Yang Yuansi was speechless for a moment, thought for a while, and after a brief silence, said:

"My disciple, you've been in a gentle illusion for too long. This Wuji Pavilion is one of the Five Great Powers of Thousand Stars State, so it naturally makes your Cultivation process smooth sailing. But you must know that the outside Cultivation world is very cruel!"

"So now I will teach you the first lesson of discipleship! Caution!"

"Caution?! I am very cautious! I don't trust anyone when I go out!"

Shi Chenghua said, somewhat puzzled.

"Don't trust anyone? Then what about the female Cultivator who was just walking with you? You two were chatting and laughing, and you seemed to have no guard up at all?"

"Ah? That's... How could she harm me? Master, you're thinking too much."

Yang Yuansi said faintly:

"I didn't say she would harm you, but have you ever considered what if someone secretly manipulated her to harm you, or what if someone transformed into her appearance to harm you?"

...Shi Chenghua was speechless... Yang Yuansi continued:

"That's right, caution sounds simple to say, but it's very difficult to do. In my opinion, you haven't achieved this at all. Just in the short time I've known you, I've found several instances where you weren't cautious!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Chenghua quickly cupped his fists and said:

"Disciple asks Master for guidance!"

Yang Yuansi cleared his throat and said leisurely:

"Firstly! Not to mention the female Cultivator harming you, but I saw you chatting very happily with the female Cultivator you were traveling with. At that time, wasn't your vigilance at its weakest? If someone suddenly ambushed you then, what would you do? Do you have the confidence to react in time?"

"Ah... this..."

"Secondly! When you returned to your residence, you had no guard whatsoever. You need to know, is a Sect necessarily safe? Did you set up any mechanisms before you left?"

"Don't think no one will come to your residence, what if they do? Better safe than sorry! There isn't even a Formation near your residence, so others can come and go as they please, can't they?"

"Master, I'll set up a Formation right away!"

"Even if you set up a Formation, is it necessarily safe? In fact, it's not the only secure thing. You'd best put a speck of dust or a strand of hair on your door as a marker. If you return and find this speck of dust gone, wouldn't that prove someone had been to your residence?!"

As Shi Chenghua listened, he found his Master's words incredibly logical, and his eyes immediately showed immense admiration!

"There's also a third point! When arriving at any new place, understanding all the Cultivators in that place is paramount! Just like the Senior Lu you mentioned, if I don't know his true cultivation level, how can I rest assured inside your body, guiding you in your Cultivation?"

Shi Chenghua immediately showed a look of sudden enlightenment:

"So that's how it is! Master, your disciple has learned a lot. Master, I will go investigate Senior Lu's cultivation level right now!"

...Shi Chenghua then hung the small mirror Yang Yuansi had taken out on his waist, then left and walked towards Lu Hao's residence.

Yang Yuansi did not continue to follow, mainly because he was also worried about exposing himself.

For ordinary Cultivators, it was basically impossible to detect Yang Yuansi, but facing an unknown Cultivator, he was always so cautious.

Shi Chenghua left that Earth Rank Magic Treasure, and Yang Yuansi then descended from his body.

Meanwhile, Lu Hao, after the Three Lives Mirror incident, had also taken Ling'er to stroll through the Mortal ancient town for a few days.

Firstly, he himself had planned to wander here for a few days and relax.

Secondly, Lu Hao also hoped that during the relaxation process, Ling'er could better resolve her inner negative emotions.

After these few days, Ling'er the Nether Immortal's mood had improved a lot. Although the events of many years ago had left an indelible mark on her, fortunately, the Heavenly Dao had given her a chance to make amends.

Sometimes, looking at Lu Hao, Ling'er would feel a sense of peace welling up from deep within her heart. This emotion was something she had only experienced when she was a child.

However, during this period, Ling'er had not Cultivated at all, nor had she used any of her cultivation. She seemed to truly consider herself a Mortal, even forgetting that she still possessed the power of a Soul Transformation Cultivator.

Lu Hao didn't pay too much attention to this; he was much the same himself.

At this moment, Lu Hao was eating at a small restaurant. This restaurant was said to be the most famous within a hundred-mile radius. Lu Hao had actually come yesterday, but the wait was too long!

So today, he came early to get a seat in advance, and only then did he successfully eat at this restaurant.

At this time, the entire restaurant was already full, and people were still queuing outside in an endless stream.

The two chose a window seat near a corner. Ling'er sat opposite Lu Hao and thoughtfully arranged his bowls and chopsticks, then poured wine.

Lu Hao quickly indicated that he could do it himself and she didn't need to.

Ling'er smiled slightly and said softly:

"Brother, why be so polite? We were family many years ago!"

Hearing this, Lu Hao couldn't refute, as Ling'er was indeed right... Soon, their table was full of dishes. Having come so early to queue, shouldn't they order a few more dishes?
