“Wei, is the Foundation Establishment Stage Master still in the Immortal Pavilion?” He Song suddenly had the intention to leave this place, but after some thought, he finally asked another question.

If the guardian of the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion was still here, he might not need to run away.

However, if the guardian of the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion had also gone to the Red Spirit Gold Mine, He Song felt that he might have to run away immediately.

Otherwise, if anything happened, without a Foundation Establishment Stage Master to maintain order in the Immortal Pavilion, chaos would likely ensue.

In such chaos, as a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator, he would probably be left to the whims of fate.

This was not a situation He Song wanted to experience.

He just wanted to cultivate in peace.

He didn’t want to get involved in any life-threatening battles.

“Of course, the Master is still here. I saw him from afar just yesterday. What’s the reason for asking?” Wei Fan replied with curiosity.

“The Red Spirit Gold Mine is right next to the Immortal Pavilion. I worry that if chaos arises there and there’s no Foundation Establishment Stage Master guarding the Pavilion, Evil Cultivators may run rampant,” He Song replied, his expression slightly relaxed.

As long as they were still here, that was good.

As long as they were still here, that was good.

He Song let out a big sigh of relief in his heart.

As long as the Foundation Establishment Stage Master was in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, no unrest could arise.

Even if Evil Cultivators attacked, they wouldn’t stand a chance against a Foundation Establishment Stage Master. They would be as useless as eggs thrown against a rock.

However, even after learning that the Immortal Pavilion still had a Foundation Establishment Stage Master stationed there, He Song had already begun to consider whether or not he needed to leave the Pavilion to avoid disaster.

The location of the Red Spirit Gold Mine seemed like a ticking time bomb to He Song.

Life would be manageable if nothing happened, but if anything did happen… the surrounding Immortal Pavilions would likely face some trouble.

Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion was not far from the location of the Red Spirit Gold Mine and could be affected quickly.action

Continuing to live here with his Qi Refining Early Stage cultivation had some unknown risks.

“My friend, you don’t have to worry. Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion is under the jurisdiction of the Thick Earth Sect, a powerful Golden Elixir Great Faction. There won’t be any lowly villains daring to create trouble here. Your cautious nature hasn’t changed at all,” Wei Fan reassured him with a smile.

However, as if remembering something, Wei Fan’s expression stiffened for a moment, before he quickly spoke again.

“If you don’t mind, you can move in with me, and we can take care of each other. Even if chaos arises in the Pavilion, I can ensure your safety,” he said.

During the five years of friendship between He Song and Wei Fan, Wei Fan had come to know He Song’s cautious nature well.

At one of their monthly gatherings, He Song had advised Wei Fan on a matter due to his cautious nature, helping Wei Fan to avoid a crisis of moderate severity.

For this reason, Wei Fan did not hold any grudges against He Song’s caution and even began to agree with it after growing suspicious about the anomalies at the Red Spirit Gold Mine.

This was also the reason he had invited He Song to live with him.

It was because of their friendship, and also because caution could indeed lead to a longer life.

Having a naturally cautious friend by one’s side could sometimes prove very useful when something unexpected happened.

Once Wei Fan finished speaking, He Song’s train of thought was instantly interrupted.

He had initially been thinking about how to leave the Immortal Pavilion, how to survive in the mortal world as a third-tier Qi Refiner, how to avoid disaster without drawing attention, and so on.

But he hadn’t expected that Wei Fan would come up with a solution he had never considered.

Moving out?

Not moving out of the Immortal Pavilion.

But moving in with Wei Fan and living together with him?

This…

After considering the idea seriously, He Song suddenly saw the light.

Even if chaos were to erupt at the Red Spirit Gold Mine, the area was still under the jurisdiction of the Golden Core Sect, the Thick Earth Sect, which was guarded by several Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If anything happened, the battle would most likely take place near the Red Spirit Gold Mine.

He Song had never witnessed a Foundation Establishment Stage battle, but he figured the turmoil was unlikely to affect the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

After all, although the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion was not far from where the Red Spirit Gold Mine was located, it was still several hundred miles away.

A battle involving Foundation Establishment cultivators would not cover such a vast distance.

Additionally, the Thick Earth Sect had Golden Core experts!

If anything happened at the Red Spirit Gold Mine, the Golden Core cultivator of the Thick Earth Sect would be there as a backup.

In such a case, even if a major battle involving Foundation Establishment cultivators occurred at the Red Spirit Gold Mine, the Foundation Establishment cultivator guarding the Pavilion might only go to reinforce them at most.

He Song had initially been concerned about this.

The safety of the Immortal Pavilion was mainly ensured by the presence of Foundation Establishment cultivators, deterring Evil Cultivators from causing trouble.

However, once the Foundation Establishment cultivator guarding the Immortal Pavilion left to reinforce the disputants at the Red Spirit Gold Mine, the Pavilion’s defenses would be weakened, making them vulnerable to Evil Cultivator attacks.

At that time, as a Qi Refining Early Stage cultivator in the chaotic Immortal Pavilion, he might only be at the mercy of fate.

But when Wei Fan invited him to live together, He Song’s initial concerns immediately vanished.

Wei Fan’s cultivation was at the seventh-tier Qi Refining stage, within the scope of the Qi-refining late stage.

His residence was in an area with the richest spirit Qi and closest to the Foundation Establishment Stage Master within the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion.

In that area, the surrounding cultivators were mostly at the Qi-refining late stage, with a few friends or family members of lower cultivation levels.

Under such circumstances, with almost all the surrounding cultivators at the Qi-refining late stage, any Evil Cultivators who attacked would likely not dare to cause trouble in that area.

A single Qi-refining late-stage cultivator may not be formidable on their own.

But a group of them was indeed a force to be reckoned with.

When a group of Qi-refining late-stage cultivators joined forces, nobody below the Foundation Establishment stage would dare to provoke them.

“Alright, I’ll take advantage of Wei’s hospitality.” He Song didn’t hesitate, made up his mind after thinking for a while, and responded.

He had established himself in the Bamboo Mountain Immortal Pavilion, and leaving now would be extremely detrimental to his future development.

There was scarce spirit Qi in the mortal world, so his cultivation speed would significantly decrease.

In the mortal world, spirit stones were scarce, and he wouldn’t be able to receive his 150 annual spirit stones as he did now.

Although there were occasional Evil Cultivators in the mortal world, He Song’s low cultivation made him an easy target.

In addition, if he left and wanted to become a spiritual plant farmer again in the future, it wouldn’t be as easy as before.

Even though he had a good relationship with Zhao Lin, the person in charge of recruiting spiritual plant farmers for the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, who knew what would happen to Zhao Lin in the chaos that might occur?

Moving in with Wei Fan, while somewhat inconvenient, was the best option available given the current circumstances.

Firstly, he wouldn’t have to leave the Pavilion, allowing him to maintain his cultivation speed.

Secondly, he wouldn’t have to resign from his position in the Pavilion, ensuring his annual salary of 150 spirit stones.

Thirdly, with Wei Fan, a Qi-refining late stage cultivator, beside him, he wouldn’t have to worry about his safety.

Fourthly…
