Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 2224: 598: Lu Changsheng, Are You Feeling Proud Now!

"Isn’t it just because I wanted to spend more time with the children?" Lu Changsheng said speechlessly.

"Don’t you have hundreds at home? Haven’t you spent enough time with them?"

Yun Wanshang said with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.

This was the thing she was most displeased with about Lu Changsheng.

Are you a breeding pig? Going around siring offspring.

Lu Changsheng choked back his words, thinking to himself, can’t you speak better?

He wanted to say that it’s your child, so he wanted to spend more time, but thinking Yun Wanshang wouldn’t buy it, he could only nod helplessly.

"Alright, you go back. When Yun Xiao is born, I’ll notify you to help you break through to Nascent Soul."

Yun Wanshang said calmly, "Xiao Xiyue and Shouzheng will remain at Caiyun Peak; I have things to discuss with them."

Lu Changsheng was taken aback by her words and explained for Xiao Xiyue: "Regarding Shouzheng, Xiyue didn’t deliberately hide it from you. It was just that when I hadn’t returned, she thought you were annoyed...""There’s no need for you to explain!" Yun Wanshang said coldly.

As a master, facing Xiao Xiyue’s concealment of everything, how could she not be angry?

"Then can I at least watch from the side?" Lu Changsheng was not at ease with this.

"No, you can’t." Yun Wanshang said decisively.

"Xiyue is, after all, my wife. Can’t I even watch, besides this matter..."

Knowing that Yun Wanshang before him wasn’t as cold as she appeared, Lu Changsheng continued to persuade.

"Aren’t you annoying!" Yun Wanshang said, slightly impatient.

"Then can I at least wait outside?" Lu Changsheng chose to take another step back.

Just as he finished speaking, the doors of Caiyun Hall suddenly opened with a "boom," and Yun Wanshang called Xiao Xiyue and Lu Shouzheng to come in.

Seeing that Lu Changsheng was unharmed, only his qi and blood mana was a bit disturbed, Xiao Xiyue was relieved.

But seeing how close Lu Changsheng was to the master earlier, Xiao Xiyue was taken aback, suspecting whether the master would do anything with her husband in the hall?

Xiao Xiyue immediately operated the "Supreme Forgetful Love Technique" with all her might to suppress her thoughts.

Ever since listening to Lu Changsheng’s account of affairs with the master, causing the tall image of Yun Wanshang to shatter in her heart, and knowing Lu Changsheng’s nature, she couldn’t help but overthink.

"You, go out." Yun Wanshang glanced at Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly towards Xiao Xiyue, indicating he was fine, and walked out of Caiyun Hall.

Seeing the hall doors close, he tried using his divine sense to eavesdrop inside.

After all, the great formation prohibition of the Caiyun Hall couldn’t completely block his Nascent Soul level Taiyi Divine Soul.

"Try eavesdropping if you dare!"

However, Yun Wanshang’s voice immediately sounded.

She even added, "And that Mirror Disciple of yours!"

Although Lu Changsheng didn’t bring the "Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror," Yun Wanshang had seen this mirror and knew its effects and capabilities were almost impossible to guard against.

"Sigh." Lu Changsheng knew he couldn’t completely hide his divine sense from Yun Wanshang and could only wait honestly outside.

About an hour later, the hall doors opened with a crash, and Xiao Xiyue brought Lu Shouzheng out, indicating she wouldn’t return to Bi Lake Mountain for now. She would be cultivating in Qingyun Sect and helping with affairs for a period.

For in this period, with Yun Wanshang in long closed-door cultivation, as a disciple, she should be the spokesperson for Caiyun Peak, yet she had always been at Bi Lake Mountain, which was really improper.

As for Lu Shouzheng, Yun Wanshang also indicated that he should cultivate at Caiyun Peak and not return to Bi Lake Mountain.

Lu Changsheng was immediately displeased; how was Bi Lake Mountain worse than Qingyun Sect? The conditions it could provide Lu Shouzheng far surpassed Qingyun Sect’s.

"Father, I am willing to cultivate on Caiyun Peak."

However, Lu Shouzheng cupped his hands in respect toward Lu Changsheng.

This was the place of his birth and childhood memories, and he still preferred it here.

Hearing that, Lu Changsheng fell silent for a moment.

He knew his neglect of this son led to him preferring the side of his mother Chu Qingyi.

"Alright, Bi Lake Mountain will always be your home, you can send a message or write a letter if anything happens."

Lu Changsheng didn’t force him, nodded, planning to visit this son with Chu Qingyi sometime later.

"Thank you, Father."

The tender-faced Lu Shouzheng, although not very close to his father Lu Changsheng, was always respectful and courteous.

"Hmm." Lu Changsheng patted his son’s head, chatted with Xiao Xiyue for a bit, then left Qingyun Sect to return to Bi Lake Mountain.

...

Half a month later.

Seeing that there weren’t many things to handle at home, Lu Changsheng mentioned to his wife Lu Miaohuan that he would head to Yue Country in a few days. Then he went to Misty Rain Market to visit his two concubines there.

Over the past ten years or so, although Yan Lan and Yu Fei had met Lu Changsheng’s illusion clone from the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox at Bi Lake Mountain. .

But the latter hadn’t touched them for a decade, leading them to think he was tired of them, so the sisters consoled each other.

Faced with this situation, the Lu Ancestor reunited with them in the joys of men and women.

Now, the position of the master of this market had long shifted from the two of them to their children, Lu Yanyu and Lu Yanbo.

Lu Changsheng watched as they respectfully called him and each presented some elixir medicines and resources to aid their cultivation.

After staying for half a month, Lu Changsheng returned to Bi Lake Mountain, giving a few instructions to Lu Miaoyun, Lu Ping’an, Lu Quanzhen, and others before taking his wife Lu Miaohuan and daughter Lu Qingqi to Yue Country.

On the way, Lu Changsheng passed by Azure Phoenix Immortal City.

Ever since Azure Phoenix True Monarch disappeared for over twenty years, this independent practitioners’ holy land of an immortal city had inevitably declined.

However, with the escalation of the Liang-Yue war over these years, this immortal city, as a crucial bastion between Jiang Country and Yue Country, had been taken over by Sword Sect cultivators.

Perhaps considering that Azure Phoenix True Monarch merely disappeared but was not confirmed dead, the Sword Sect didn’t carry out any purges and continued to employ the existing talents.

And his son Lu Qingxuan, who had been here all the while, had become a steward with some authority.

Chatting with his son, Lu Changsheng listened to the happenings in Azure Phoenix Immortal City over these years and inevitably thought of Azure Phoenix True Monarch.

"Xuan’er, you must still focus on cultivation. The situation here at Azure Phoenix Immortal City requires no undue concern, or you can head to Great Dream Immortal City."

A journey across the Starry Sky Sea, only to return over ten years later, left Lu Changsheng unable to care for many of his children.

"Please don’t worry, Father. I am well; however, I heard that at home..."

Spending extended periods in Azure Phoenix Immortal City, Lu Qingxuan had convenient access to information and was aware of home affairs.

Moreover, a few days ago, Lu Wangshu, Lu Qingqi, and others playing outside with the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, had also come to visit him, knowing of Lu Changsheng’s return.

"There’s nothing to worry about at home."

Lu Changsheng instructed his son, then glanced at the maid by his side, recognizing her as the one Lu Qingxuan had brought along in his early years.

Unexpectedly, this maid had remained by his son’s side ever since, even reaching the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

After visiting Lu Qingxuan, Lu Changsheng then arrived at Qingxuan Mountain.

However, Lu Qingxuan and the others had all gone to the Yue Country for the war; now Qingxuan Mountain had only two Lu Family foundational cultivators left to maintain business operations.

Lu Changsheng inquired about recent developments, offered a few words of encouragement, and then rode the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng deep into the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range.

He planned to wait until his son Lu Yunxiao was born before making a breakthrough to Nascent Soul.

For breaking through to Nascent Soul, a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein was absolutely necessary.

Although he could consider going to the Five Poisons Cult or the Forbidden Sea.

But breaking through at the Five Poisons Cult would inevitably attract attention from other cultivators and Jin Kingdom’s forces.

At that time, it could be disseminated and lead to trouble.

Going to the Forbidden Sea, however, was somewhat far, raising concerns about encountering the Seven Sects of the Ocean or attracting the attention of the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.

Thus, he thought of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, visiting to evaluate the situation.

If the conditions in the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range proved suitable, he would make his breakthrough to Nascent Soul in its depths.

In case he attracted other Demon Kings or a beast tide, with the presence of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, the Soul-calling Beast, Qian Zhuyan, and Yun Wanshang, Lu Changsheng felt it wouldn’t be much of an issue.

At worst, he would make more preparations and arrange a formation with Ling Zixiao’s help, letting Yun Wanshang and Hong Lian manage to activate the "Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror" reluctantly.

With a Fourth Rank Divination expert and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, a Fourth Rank Transformed Demon King, Lu Changsheng’s investigation went smoothly. By calculating omens and sensing the atmosphere, he could discern the approximate strength and status of the Demon Kings in each area.

In just a month, Lu Changsheng gained a general understanding of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, finding several locations suitable for himself.

It could be said that possessing multiple Nascent Soul level protectors, a Fourth Rank Spirit Vein did not pose any demanding conditions for a Core Formation to break through to Nascent Soul.

Just like how an Energy Refining Cultivator has the backing of a senior at Foundation Establishment, access to a Second Grade Spirit Vein, and even Foundation Establishment Elixirs, overcoming the difficulty becomes much simpler and easier.

After inspecting the Fourth Rank Spiritual Lands, Lu Changsheng then directly crossed the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range and arrived in Yue Country.
