Chapter 544: 261: The Origin of Tagging Along



With all this evidence, how could you possibly not have cultivated the Taiping Dao Book?”

The impact of Lu Yuan’s words was so great that it overwhelmed True Person Anqiu, who couldn’t help but repeatedly question him.

If what the other party said is true…

After the last Worshiping of the Heavenly Pillar, he had never cultivated the Taiping Dao Book. Then, wouldn’t all the scheming of the Dan Ding Path in these years have been in vain?

And this time, he even eagerly brought ten million taels of silver, only to be played by someone who had fooled both himself and the Dan Ding Path. Wouldn’t this make him a laughingstock?

These issues above could be put aside.

The key point is that if Lu Yuan does not practice the Taiping Dao Book, what would happen to his Daoist Path?

Without this experimental data, without anyone to test the waters, under the general trend of fading celestial spirit qi in Heaven and Earth, would the Dan Ding Path decline like his own Daoist Path?

Or should he himself cultivate the Taiping Dao Book and become the experimental subject?

Thinking of the tragic fate of the lab rats he had seen in the past, and that he still has decades left to enjoy, True Person Anqiu suppressed the thought as soon as it rose.

Who would want to die if it is not absolutely necessary?

But right now…

True Person Anqiu’s heart was filled with fear and anger, as well as some expectations, as he stared intently at Lu Yuan.

Facing this gaze, Lu Yuan calmly and coldly replied, “What is so impossible about this? Doesn’t Fellow Daoist Anqiu know what kind of magic the Taiping Dao Book is?

I am young and promising, and only a fool would cultivate such magic.”

The last time I sought you out, it was just to get some military funding.”

Did you really take it seriously?

Moreover, I did not break my promise.

You asked me to worship the Heavenly Pillar, and I did. You asked me to practice the Dao Law, and I did.

I did not promise you that I would cultivate for one day, one month, or even one year.

I cultivated the Taiping Dao Book for one day, losing half a month’s lifespan, and I have already done right by the Dan Ding Path and fulfilled my duty.

Then, if I don’t want to cultivate further, it’s my own business, unrelated to the original agreement.”

Although both sides had agreed on the conditions in advance in this transaction, it was done by default.

But in the agreement, there was no mention of how long Lu Yuan needed to cultivate the Taiping Dao Book.

Therefore, whether he cultivated for one day or one year, he would still be considered to have cultivated.

As long as he cultivated, the requirement would be considered fulfilled, and this could not naturally be considered a breach of promise.

As for the Taiping Dao Book magic…

Well, how should I put it?

Indeed, it shortens one’s lifespan, but as long as you don’t cultivate the magic, you won’t receive the immortal spirit qi from the Heavenly Pillar.

In that case, the thoughts of the people and the qi luck of the world would not swarm to harm oneself.

Thus, if you don’t cultivate this magic, it naturally won’t shorten your lifespan.

Without taking the benefits, there is naturally no harm.

Since Lu Yuan did not gain any benefits from cultivating the magic, the magic naturally would not harm him.

At the beginning, the Dan Ding Path set this agreement without clearly stipulating the details and requirements, leading to such loopholes in the agreement. That was their problem.

Now that Lu Yuan has found the loophole and resorted to such a devious way to break the agreement, it is also his skill.

It’s just a matter of accepting the outcome of the bet. Who can be blamed?

“You…”

True Person Anqiu, upon hearing Lu Yuan’s smooth tongue, finally managed to calm his shock and fear, his anger boiling over instead: “By playing such tricks on me, does King Chu truly not fear my Dan Ding Path’s revenge?

Or does King Chu believe that relying on these clever words and deceiving tactics can really get him through this?

Does he truly believe that all the benefits we offer are so easy to obtain?”

True Person Anqiu naturally knew that although what Lu Yuan just said was a cunning attempt to exploit loopholes, his logic was sound.

After all, in the original agreement, they had not specified how long Lu Yuan needed to cultivate the magic, only that he had to cultivate it.

But could they really blame themselves for not specifying the details?

At that time, Lu Yuan was a vassal lord of a kingdom and on top of that, he was an Inborn Grandmaster. His status and position were already at the pinnacle of this world.

To make a transaction with someone like him and the Dan Ding Path was already a large concession on their part.

Would you really think that others didn’t have a temper if you took advantage of the situation and kept on demanding?

What if Lu Yuan was so fed up that he decided not to engage in the transaction at all?

After all, based on the situation at that time, even without this money, Lu Yuan wouldn’t be struggling to maintain himself; at most, he just couldn’t afford to recruit more troops.

With his existing resources, he could easily become the king of a territory even without opposing the court. He had his own bottom line.

It’s just that his current situation couldn’t compare to the grandeur of the Great Chu.

Hence, with Lu Yuan’s conditions, he was the one in the dominant position, and it was the Dan Ding Path who sought to do business with him.

Since they were asking for help, they naturally couldn’t be aggressive and couldn’t make too many demands.

In addition, the Dan Ding Path was confident in their own strength, believing that no one would dare to break the agreement, so they didn’t think too much about it and hastily completed the transaction.

Moreover, with his prominent status as a vassal lord and Inborn Grandmaster, who could have known that Lu Yuan would be so cunning and fickle, resorting to such underhanded means to deny the agreed-upon conditions?

This has led to the current situation.

As True Person Anqiu thought back on it, he was filled with regret and extreme embarrassment.

“Whether it’s cunningly smooth talk or not, Fellow Daoist can go and claim it. In any case, I believe I have fulfilled the original agreement.”
