Chapter 20: The Lu sisters
After arriving at his new home, Lu Changsheng took out some moving items from his Storage Pouch, then went to his new cultivation room and began to Cultivate in meditation.
He wanted to see how much difference there was in the cultivation effect on the second-order Spiritual Vein of Qingzhu Valley compared to the first-order Spiritual Vein of Qingzhu Mountain Village.
Several hours later, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his face full of joy.
“As expected of a second-order Spiritual Vein, the Spiritual Qi is several times denser than in Qingzhu Mountain Village, increasing my cultivation speed by 30%!”
At this moment, Lu Changsheng clearly experienced the benefits brought by the second-order Spiritual Vein.
Moreover, the 30% increase was still limited by his speed of refining Spiritual Qi.
Otherwise, Lu Changsheng felt that his cultivation speed could be even faster.
However, he was already very satisfied with this improvement.
Immediately, Lu Changsheng was filled with passion for cultivation in the days that followed.
Four days later, an attendant named Butler Lu from Qingzhu Valley came to Lu Changsheng’s residence.
He brought a golden brush for Talismans and one hundred sets of Talismans Materials.
He was asked to produce twenty Fireball Talismans within a month.
This was one of the terms of the previous contract between Lu Changsheng and the Family Lu.
The Family Lu provided the Materials, and Lu Changsheng made the Talismans.
Twenty Fireball Talismans a month was naturally not a problem for Lu Changsheng; it was pure profit.
However, this also indicated that the Family Lu was still in the cultivation stage for Lu Changsheng.
In the future, both the quantity and quality of Talismans would be increased.
In a blink of an eye, Lu Changsheng had been in Qingzhu Valley for over a month.
On this day, his eighth child was born.
It was a daughter.
When the child was born, Lu Changsheng did not feel any Spiritual Root fluctuations.
He immediately knew that this child had no Spiritual Root.
Since he had confirmed that the System could detect a child’s Spiritual Root, the fact that this child had no Spiritual Root caused him a slight sense of disappointment.
However, it was only a slight disappointment.
Regarding the child’s Spiritual Root, he had become much more open-minded and could accept it with a normal mindset.
Looking at the newborn child, Lu Changsheng suddenly realized that today was the last day of the month, and tomorrow would be a new month.
And on the first day of every month in Qingzhu Valley, there was a small trade fair.
“I’ve never seen a trade fair between Cultivators before; I can go and see it tomorrow.”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
After becoming a Talismans Master, the Family Lu disciples and immortal sprouts had given him a wave of gifts, leaving him with some spare money.
So, he also wanted to see what this small trade fair within the Family Lu was like.
Early the next morning, Lu Changsheng arrived at the trade fair location in Qingzhu Valley.
The trade fair was located at Bamboo Heart Lake, with pavilions and waterside platforms built along the lake.
In these pavilions and waterside platforms, members of the Family Lu placed items they wished to trade on stone tables.
Or they displayed signs indicating their desire to purchase certain items or resources.
He wasn’t sure if he had arrived too early or if there were just this few people; only about ten people had stalls.
The items being sold were only a few scattered pieces, and there was nothing he could use.
Lu Changsheng walked around once and found it uninteresting, preparing to go straight back.
Just as Lu Changsheng walked out of the waterside platform, he saw two women approaching, hand in hand, walking side by side.
He recognized one of them; it was Young Miss Lu Miaoge.
This Young Miss was dressed very simply, her long black hair tied back with a pale moon-colored silk ribbon, giving her a clear and graceful appearance.
She wore a simple, elegant moon-white long dress with no other accessories, very concise, with an ethereal and refined temperament, as elegant as an immortal.
Lu Changsheng had never seen the other person.
But upon seeing this woman, he couldn’t help but glance at her a few more times.
This woman appeared to be eighteen or nineteen years old, exceptionally beautiful, bearing a seven or eight-tenths resemblance to Lu Miaoge.
However, her makeup, clothing, and temperament were vastly different from Lu Miaoge’s.
Her makeup was very exquisite, her dark, beautiful hair was tied back with a dark gold hair ornament, a few strands of hair fell on her chest, and two dazzling gemstone earrings hung from her fair earlobes.
She wore a dark black, sexy, form-fitting, gold-embroidered off-shoulder dress, which perfectly showcased her graceful curves, leaving nothing to the imagination.
The skirt of her lower garment had high slits on both sides, like a cheongsam, allowing one to see parts of the woman’s plump thighs and her jade-like, rounded calves.
However, at this moment, her pair of long, beautiful legs were not the snow-white color of frost, but covered with a layer of black silk stockings as thin as cicada wings, making her legs appear even more slender and alluring.
What surprised Lu Changsheng and made him look twice, besides the black sheer stockings, was the pair of shoes the woman wore: black, gold-patterned, luxurious high heels with thin, high heels.
The slender heels were estimated to be three or four inches high, further perfecting and enhancing the alluring contours of the woman’s legs, truly a ’legs for years’ series.
Her entire demeanor appeared cold, noble, sexy, and alluring, standing more than half a head taller than Young Miss Lu Miaoge, who was walking beside her.
“What are you looking at? If you keep staring with those lecherous eyes, I’ll dig them out!”
The woman in the black dress and high heels saw Lu Changsheng’s gaze fall upon her, her voice like a cold, clear spring.
“Miaohuan.”
Lu Miaoge gently tugged her sister upon seeing this.
Then she gave Lu Changsheng an apologetic look.
Lu Changsheng also felt that he had been somewhat impolite.
Mainly, he hadn’t expected such an outfit as black stockings and high heels to appear in this Cultivation world.
Moreover.
The woman’s dark gold dress combined with the black stockings and high heels was indeed eye-catching.
Her noble and cold demeanor, mixed with a hint of sexy allure, made him involuntarily look twice.
“Greetings, Young Miss.”
“Greetings, Young Miss, it was my rudeness.”
Lu Changsheng cupped his hands with a natural demeanor.
If it were his former self, he might have felt embarrassed.
But now, as a man with three wives, six concubines, and several children, this small matter did not make him feel embarrassed.
Lust is human nature!
It’s only natural to look twice when seeing black stockings for the first time, isn’t it?
However, through Lu Miaoge’s words and the two women’s appearances, he heard that they were sisters, which surprised him a little.
He hadn’t expected the two sisters to have such vastly different temperaments and personalities.
“Lu Changsheng, are you here to buy anything?”
Lu Miaoge asked Lu Changsheng, her voice soft.
“I heard Butler Lu say that there’s a small trade fair here on the first of every month, so I thought I’d come and take a look.”
Lu Changsheng said so.
“The trade fair won’t be fully attended until noon; you came a bit early.”
Lu Miaoge said softly.
“I see, but I’m not buying anything, just coming to broaden my horizons. Now that I’ve seen it, I’m ready to go back.”
Lu Changsheng nodded, not engaging in much more conversation.
It was normal to be attracted to beauty, but a woman like Lu Miaoge was not someone he could afford to offend for now, so it was better to have less contact.
In such a public place, who knew if he would be targeted by her admirers or followers just for exchanging a few words with Lu Miaoge.
Immediately, Lu Changsheng cupped his hands and took his leave.
Seeing Lu Changsheng’s departing back, the black-dressed woman beside Lu Miaoge showed a hint of disdain and said, “Is that Lu Changsheng? He’s really as lecherous as the rumors say. He already has nine wives and concubines, yet he’s still so lustful.”
“Miaohuan, you should also pay attention to your attire. This is a bit…”
Lu Miaoge said softly.
“A bit frivolous, right? Sister, a woman dresses up for herself, not for others. I dress for myself, not for others to see.”
Lu Miaohuan pouted upon hearing her sister’s words, completely unconcerned.
“It seems I still know too little about this world.”
“That’s true, for the first eighteen years, I lived in the village. Besides being guided to the Qingyun Sect, the farthest I’ve been is the county town.”
“Now that I’ve come to the Family Lu, I’ve never left it by half a step. Everything I know is from reading books, so how could I know too much?”
“This is a world with Cultivators; how can I look at it with limited vision?”
“In my previous life, a bunch of Xianxia and Xuanhuan anime all featured high heels and long legs, so it’s perfectly normal for things like stockings and high heels to exist.”
Lu Changsheng returned to his residence, feeling a bit emotional.
He didn’t take today’s events too seriously.
It was just a small interlude in life.
However, he could look into where such shoes and stockings were sold in the future.
He had no other intentions, simply wanting to give some gifts to his wives and concubines.
