Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family
Chapter 226: The Lu family hopes that the Gu will be awakened!
In the blink of an eye, five days had passed.
In these few days, Lu Changsheng spent most of his time with Xiao Xiyue, and the two poured out their longing for each other.
During the process, he inquired about the Qingyun Sect token.
Xiao Xiyue said that she was not sure about the specifics of the token’s favor.
But just asking for a qualification to purchase a spiritual vein dojo should not be a big problem.
After all, this was a true disciple who saved the Qingyun Sect!
As for Lu Changsheng’s inquiry about the battle at Blackwater Pool and the sale of spiritual lands by other family forces, Xiao Xiyue was not clear.
Because under normal circumstances, as long as the family forces within the jurisdiction do not collude with the demonic path and make offerings on time every year, the Qingyun Sect will not interfere with the situation of the families below.
They also don’t have the leisure to care about these trivial matters.
However, Xiao Xiyue said that it would be best if he could purchase the spiritual lands sold by other families.
Because the spiritual vein dojos purchased from the Qingyun Sect are mostly very simple.
If they are used to establish a family, they need to be built step by step, which takes a lot of time and money.
Directly purchasing the spiritual lands sold by other families can save these efforts.
Moreover, the spiritual lands of these family forces mostly have stable production, income, and channels.
As long as the spiritual land is bought, it is equivalent to fully receiving these resources, which can save a lot of trouble.
After listening to Xiao Xiyue’s suggestion, Lu Changsheng also planned to follow the original plan and first investigate the surrounding suitable spiritual lands.
It would be best if he could buy a suitable spiritual land.
If there is really no suitable spiritual land, then he will use the Qingyun Sect token to exchange for a qualification to purchase a spiritual vein.
At the same time, Xiao Xiyue gave Lu Changsheng the third-order talisman-making materials she had collected over the past year.
There were not many materials, only about ten portions and some raw materials.
In response, Lu Changsheng also gave Xiao Xiyue the ‘Nurturing Talisman Method’ and ten second-order top-grade talismans he had drawn.
It’s not that he was reluctant to part with third-order talismans.
It was simply that he had limited time and had been busy, so he had not yet drawn third-order talismans.
However, these second-order top-grade talismans were all drawn with third-order materials.
They can be nurtured through the ‘Nurturing Talisman Method’ and promoted to the third order.
After spending time with Xiao Xiyue, Lu Changsheng did not stay long.
He took Lu Miaoge and several children and set off back to Green Bamboo Mountain.
Since it was inconvenient for Xiao Xiyue to take care of the child for a long time, her daughter Lu Wangshu was naturally taken back by Lu Changsheng.
After a few days of contact, this daughter became a little closer to him.
“Miaoge, I still have to go to Ruyi County. Are you going with me, or are you going back to Green Bamboo Mountain first?”
On the spirit boat, Lu Changsheng held his daughter Lu Wangshu, looked at Lu Miaoge, and said.
After returning home this time, after spending time with his wives and concubines, he went straight to Green River Square Market.
He had not yet been to Ruyi County.
It’s been so long since he’s been there, so naturally he has to go and take a look.
Moreover, he also wanted to see if Lu Ping’an had returned.
And meet his eldest grandson of the Lu family.
“I’ll go with you.”
Lu Miaoge said softly upon hearing this.
She knew that Lu Changsheng had settled his wives, concubines, children, and daughters without spiritual roots in Ruyi County.
Since Lu Changsheng was going to visit these wives, concubines, children, and daughters, she, as a wife, would naturally accompany him to visit.
“Okay.”
Lu Changsheng nodded, then drove the spirit boat towards Ruyi County.
Qingyun Sect.
Inside a cave dwelling.
“Lu Changsheng.”
Meng Xiangu frowned as she looked at the information in her hand.
Ever since her grandson Meng Yibai was killed, whenever she saw the unpromising descendants in her family, she would think of this grandson and want to avenge him.
But the only clue to revenge was on Xiao Xiyue.
She naturally did not dare to question Xiao Xiyue.
Therefore, when Xiao Xiyue was arranged to serve as the head of discipline in Green River Square Market, she asked people to secretly observe and understand whether Xiao Xiyue had any close contact with anyone during this period.
To see if there were any discoveries.
Previously, she received news that a Foundation Establishment cultivator named ‘Loose Cultivator Han Li’ had contacted Xiao Xiyue and entered her field of vision.
But after investigating, she did not obtain any relevant information about this person.
Not long ago, she received another message.
The daughter of a small family seemed to be very close to Xiao Xiyue.
This made her feel very surprised.
Xiao Xiyue’s personality was cold and she had always kept people at a distance.
She was actually very close to the daughter of a small family and even allowed the other party’s child to recognize her as a mother.
After investigation, she received another message today.
The husband of this small family’s daughter, a man named Lu Changsheng, was considered an old acquaintance of Xiao Xiyue.
He also came to Green River Square Market these few days and was getting closer to Xiao Xiyue.
“This Lu Changsheng is just a son-in-law of a small family and has only just broken through to Foundation Establishment… It is absolutely impossible for him to have killed Yibai.”
“Presumably, he only knew Xiao Xiyue in his early years and formed some friendship.”
Meng Xiangu muttered to herself, putting the message aside.
The person who killed her grandson Meng Yibai back then broke through to Foundation Establishment with Xiao Xiyue.
This Lu Changsheng has only now broken through to Foundation Establishment, how could he have killed her grandson.
Moreover, she guessed that the person who killed her grandson had a Pseudo-Core, or a Core Formation True Person behind him.
Lu Changsheng, a son-in-law of a small family, is he worthy of being valued by a True Person?
Half a month later.
A spirit boat came to Ruyi County.
Lu Changsheng did not stop the spirit boat outside Ruyi County as usual.
Instead, he took out an invisibility talisman to conceal the spirit boat and directly drove the spirit boat into the backyard of the Lu Mansion.
At this time, in the Myriad Elephant Garden of the Lu Mansion, Lu Ping’an was sparring with the Nine Nether Hound.
Or rather, the Nine Nether Hound was acting as a sparring partner for Lu Ping’an.
Otherwise, ten Lu Ping’ans would not be a match for the Nine Nether Hound.
“Awoo, awoo, awoo—”
The Nine Nether Hound suddenly stopped and roared towards the sky.
The sound was not an angry roar, but a happy cry.
“Haha, as expected of the Nine Nether Hound, it can easily sense the aura.”
Lu Changsheng chuckled at this scene.
Immediately, with a wave of his hand, he removed the invisibility effect on the spirit boat.
As the spirit boat appeared.
Lu Ping’an immediately saw Lu Changsheng, dressed in a green robe, handsome and refined, with an extraordinary temperament, and Lu Miaoge, with a beautiful face, tall figure, and fluttering fairy skirt, on the spirit boat in the air.
“Father!”
“Aunt!”
Lu Ping’an immediately shouted respectfully.
In the past, he didn’t have much feeling.
This trip out to travel, and walking through the bottom of the cultivation world with Qin Yi, he clearly discovered that the cultivation world was completely different from his childhood memories.
In the entire cultivation world, he had not seen a few people like his father, with an immortal aura.
Especially at this time, his father and aunt stood on the spirit boat, like a pair of immortal couples, with an ethereal immortal aura, which made him reveal a bit of envy in the depths of his eyes.
“Well, how long have you been back?”
Lu Changsheng drove the spirit boat down, looked at the eldest son in front of him, and said with a smile.
He patted the Nine Nether Hound that came to him.
Now, the Nine Nether Hound was already two meters tall.
Its fur was dark and shiny, and its scarlet eyes and jagged teeth gave it a terrifying aura just by looking at it.
“Four months.”
Lu Ping’an said respectfully.
“Ping’an is so big now.”
Lu Miaoge, seeing the Lu Ping’an in front of her, smiled gently.
She had only seen Lu Ping’an a few times when he was young.
When she married Lu Changsheng, Lu Ping’an and others had already been sent to Ruyi County.
Immediately, she said to Lu Qingsong and other Lu family children: “This is your Brother Ping’an.”
“Big Brother.”
“Brother Ping’an.”
Lu Qingsong and several children shouted.
They were not old and had not seen Lu Ping’an.
But they knew that the Lu Ping’an in front of them was Lu Changsheng’s eldest son.
“You’re welcome.”
Lu Ping’an grinned when he saw everyone.
He could see that these young men and women in fine clothes were all extraordinary.
They should not be without spiritual roots and were settled here by his father.
Moreover, among these, except for the young man who called himself Big Brother, and was somewhat similar to his father and Aunt Miaoge, the others should not be his father’s children.
“Let’s go, let’s talk inside.”
Lu Changsheng patted his son’s shoulder, and it could be seen that Lu Ping’an had experienced a lot during this trip out to practice.
Then he took Lu Miaoge and others to the front hall.
“Master, husband!”
“Father!”
Lu Lanshu and other wives, concubines, children, and daughters learned that Lu Changsheng had returned and immediately came to pay their respects, making the family lively for a while.
“Father.”
After a while, a young woman in her late teens, holding a baby, came over and called out to Lu Changsheng.
“Xue’er.”
Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter-in-law Li Xue’er in front of him and nodded with a smile.
He knew that the baby in the other party’s arms was his eldest grandson of the Lu family.
“Is Wuyu not at home?”
Lu Changsheng glanced around and did not see his son Lu Wuyu.
The main reason he came here this time was to see the situation of his sons Lu Ping’an, Lu Wuyu, and Lu Quanzhen.
“My husband spends most of his time in Luo’an County. I have already sent someone to notify him to come back.”
Li Xue’er said immediately.
“It’s okay, I’m just asking.”
Lu Changsheng waved his hand.
He knew that this son was serving as a county magistrate.
He looked at the child in Li Xue’er’s arms and asked, “Has this child been named?”
The child was only two months old, and his skin was still a bit wrinkled.
Through the system, he knew that this child had no spiritual roots.
This was also normal.
Neither Lu Wuyu nor Li Xue’er had spiritual roots.
The children they gave birth to were unlikely to have spiritual roots.
“Husband said to wait for Father to return before naming him.”
Li Xue’er said respectfully, handing the baby in her arms to Lu Changsheng.
“I will name him.”
Lu Changsheng took the child, looking at his Lu family’s eldest grandson, and pondered what name to give him.
In fact, he had some ideas for the third generation of the Lu family, wanting to create a generational name.
The newest novels are first published on 6_9_shu_ba!
After thinking for a moment, Lu Changsheng raised his hand, and a talisman brush and a scroll appeared.
“Profound Origin Eternal, True Constant Supreme Purity, Guarding the Dao Illustrious Virtue, Hopeful Succession Jade Void, Worldly Scenery Glorious and Flourishing, Profound Subtlety Supreme Mystery, Eternal Boundless, Soaring Clouds, Universe Proving Immortality.”
Immediately, Lu Changsheng held the child in one hand and wielded the brush in the other, establishing the Lu family’s generational names on it.
“This child is my Lu family’s eldest grandson, so let’s start with the ‘Xuan’ generation and call him ‘Xuanming’.”
Lu Changsheng said, giving the child a name.
As he spoke, he took out a piece of warm jade and a spirit纹 carving knife from his storage bag, carving the two characters ‘玄明’ on it.
As the eldest grandson of the family, there should naturally be some token.
“Xuanming, Xuanming, this is your name, Grandpa gave you this name.”
Li Xue’er heard this and immediately said to the child with joy.
The reason why she and Lu Wuyu didn’t name the child was partly out of respect for Lu Changsheng.
On the other hand, it was also hoped that Lu Changsheng would have a better impression of this eldest grandson and show more love in the future.
Now, seeing that Lu Changsheng not only bestowed a name but also gave a piece of precious jade, her face was immediately filled with joy.
The several wives, concubines, sons, and daughters next to her showed some envy.
After naming the child, Lu Changsheng chatted with his wives, concubines, sons, and daughters, learning about the family’s situation over the past year.
Now, Lu Wuyu is already married and has children.
Lu Lanshu also basically knew the other children’s situations and had arranged suitable matches for them.
They were just waiting for Lu Changsheng, the head of the family, to nod in agreement.
“Alright, as long as the children themselves are willing and feel it’s suitable.”
“Lanshu, Zier, Qing’er, you just need to oversee and manage it.”
Lu Changsheng said upon hearing this.
He was mostly not in Ruyi County, so he couldn’t care about these children’s marriages at all.
He could only let his wife, Lu Lanshu, and others oversee and arrange it.
“Yes, Husband.”
The women, upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, immediately told Lu Changsheng about some of their arrangements for their children.
Lu Ping’an, who was next to them, revealed a bit of bitterness in his eyes when he heard his mother’s arrangements for marriage.
But he didn’t say anything.
“Ping’an, come with me.”
After chatting for a while, Lu Changsheng saw his son, Lu Ping’an, next to him and said.
As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he had seen his son’s emotional changes just now.
The longing and envy for cultivating immortality when he stood on the spirit boat.
The bit of bitterness in his eyes when Lu Lanshu talked about marriage.
“Father, what’s the matter?”
The two came to a side hall, and Lu Ping’an looked respectfully at Lu Changsheng, not knowing what his father wanted to say.
“Tell your father, what have you experienced in the past few years?”
Lu Changsheng leaned back against the chair, propping his cheek with one hand and gently tapping the armrest with the other.
“Your child, in the first year, under the arrangement of Grandpa Li, was in the Crimson Whale Gang… In the second year…”
Lu Ping’an opened his mouth upon hearing his father’s words, recounting his experiences.
But when he talked about meeting Qin Yi, his voice was obviously a bit stumbling.
After all, this kind of thing was really a bit embarrassing to tell his father.
But he couldn’t bring himself to deceive his father.
“You like this little girl?”
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow when he heard this and said directly.
“Ah, this, this…”
Lu Ping’an was stunned when he heard his father say this so directly.
The image of a black-clad, cold-faced girl couldn’t help but appear in his mind.
Then, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said, “I don’t like her.”
“You’re so old, liking is liking, disliking is disliking.”
“What’s with all the twisting and turning.”
Lu Changsheng looked at his son like this and said unhappily.
How could his son be so naive in this regard, when he was such a loving person.
“Do you think she’s a cultivator, and you’re not good enough for her?”
Lu Changsheng looked at his son and continued.
“I don’t.”
Lu Ping’an pursed his lips, his voice a little muffled.
“Do you think that you don’t have spiritual roots, and the two of you are ultimately not people of the same world, so you don’t want to delay her?”
Lu Changsheng frowned slightly and continued to ask.
“Yes.”
Lu Ping’an was silent for a moment, pursing his lips and said in a low voice.
His whole person’s emotions were a bit low.
“Sigh.”
Lu Changsheng shook his head slightly as he looked at this son.
Although he had become a bit more flexible after going out to train these past few years, his nature was still a bit honest.
But how could one change one’s personality so easily?
He looked at Lu Ping’an and said, “Do you want to cultivate immortality?”
Since this son still remembered cultivating immortality, then he would give the Hope Gu to Lu Ping’an.
Otherwise, it would be meaningless to continue keeping it.
As for the matter of explaining it to the outside world, he had also thought about it.
When the Lu family tested Lu Ping’an’s spiritual roots, they didn’t detect them.
Because he had carefully considered it, the treasures that could make people be born with spiritual roots were too rare, and ordinary people would not think of this.
In addition, it was also true that there were indeed cases of missed detections in the cultivation world, where spiritual roots could only be detected after adulthood.
So it was passable that Lu Ping’an was now detected to have spiritual roots.
“Huh?”
Lu Ping’an was stunned when he heard this, not knowing why.
“Do you want to cultivate immortality? Tell the truth!”
Lu Changsheng continued to ask.
“Yes!”
Lu Ping’an heard this, looked at his father’s eyes, pursed his lips, and said in a low voice.
“Why do you want to cultivate immortality?”
Lu Changsheng tapped the armrest gently with his finger and asked, “Do you want to cultivate immortality and then chase after that little girl?”
“No, I don’t.”
Lu Ping’an immediately shook his head a little embarrassedly.
But looking at his father’s eyes, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “I just… just want to cultivate immortality, like you, Father, and become a cultivator.”
Lu Changsheng heard this and looked at his son’s eyes.
He still remembered that fifteen years ago, the six-year-old Lu Ping’an looked at him with hope in his eyes.
“Father, can’t one become a cultivator without spiritual roots? I also want to become a cultivator like you!”
He still remembered this sentence.
But at that time, he could only remain silent.
“Come forward.”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
In his palm, the thumb-sized Hope Gu, like a ball of light, appeared.
Hope Gu can open the minds of mortals and give birth to spiritual roots!
As for the quality of the spiritual roots born, it depends on each person’s situation.
“Huh?”
Lu Ping’an was at a loss when he heard this.
But he still honestly stepped forward, immediately in front of his father.
“咻!”
In an instant, the ball of light in Lu Changsheng’s hand shot out like a beam of light and entered Lu Ping’an’s body.
“Boom!”
The moment the ball of light entered his body, Lu Ping’an seemed to hear a boom.
A shocking and mysterious force surged through his body.
As a congenital martial artist and a congenital grandmaster, his muscles were tense at this moment, his hair stood on end, and his mind was suddenly pulled open like a bowstring.
If it weren’t for the fact that the person in front of him was his father, he would have subconsciously taken action.
But the next moment, he saw endless light spreading in his body.
These rays of light made his body heavy, as if carrying a thousand pounds, with an unspeakable pressure.
“Hold on!”
At this moment, a voice rang in his mind.
It was his father Lu Changsheng’s voice.
Although Lu Ping’an didn’t know what was going on.
But hearing his father’s words, he mustered all his strength and gritted his teeth to persevere.
Letting the light spread in his body, making his body heavier and heavier, his body rumbling, and his bones seemed to be ‘creaking’.
“Hold on!”
Lu Changsheng said in a deep voice.
The child’s spiritual root talent would be added to him.
So he could clearly feel that the Hope Gu was opening Lu Ping’an’s mind.
The longer Lu Ping’an persevered, the higher the quality of the spiritual roots after the opening!
But according to the spiritual root improvement transmitted, the spiritual roots that the Hope Gu could improve were really limited, and the effect was very poor.
According to the spiritual root improvement currently transmitted from Lu Ping’an, the other party was only a low-grade spiritual root.
