Chapter 248: Yun Wanshang: Don’t let your senior sister know Han Li

Qingyun Sect.

Rainbow Cloud Peak.

“Master.”

Xiao Xiyue arrived before a grand hall on the peak and respectfully greeted with cupped hands.

“Xiyue, what brings you back this time?”

The hall doors swung open with a rumble, and a clear, gentle voice echoed.

“Master, this disciple has returned with a matter to trouble you.”

Xiao Xiyue entered the hall and explained the matter of guarding Azure Lake Mountain.

However, she did not say it was entirely because of Lu Changsheng, and also stated that this trip would be helpful for her cultivation.

“Go to Azure Lake Mountain to guard it?”

Yun Wushang frowned slightly upon hearing this.

She had previously heard Wei Sheng mention this matter, guessing that Lu Changsheng wanted to invite Xiao Xiyue to guard Azure Lake Mountain.

Her first thought upon hearing this was to refuse.

How could her disciple, a core disciple of the Qingyun Sect, go to guard someone else’s family; it was simply improper.

Moreover, Xiao Xiyue was cultivating the Supreme Emotionless Scripture, and would eventually have to embark on the path of emotional detachment.

If she continued to have lingering ties with Lu Changsheng, she feared that her future path would be difficult, and she would find it hard to break through.

But thinking of the relationship between Xiao Xiyue and Lu Changsheng, they had already taken that step, how could it be broken off so easily?

Moreover, Xiao Xiyue’s Supreme Emotionless Scripture, currently at the second level ‘Clouds have feelings, the moon has feelings’, required the two to shine correspondingly to achieve completion.

“This matter, this master can agree to.”

“However, according to the sect rules, you can only guard Azure Lake Mountain for a maximum of three years.”

Yun Wushang said aloud.

“Thank you, Master.”

Xiao Xiyue immediately revealed joy in her eyes upon hearing this, and bowed with cupped hands.

“Xiyue, this master only agreed to this matter, and you are already so happy, how can this master feel at ease with you.”

Yun Wushang said somewhat helplessly, seeing the joy in Xiao Xiyue’s eyes.

Although Xiao Xiyue’s emotional seed was now deeper, the cultivation effect was better.

But the deeper she was trapped, the more difficult it would be to break through in the future, and the harder it would be to cut off emotional ties with a sword.

“Master…”

Xiao Xiyue was slightly stunned upon hearing this, and bit her lip gently.

She also realized that as long as Lu Changsheng was involved, her Supreme Emotionless Scripture would almost fail.

Moreover, going to Azure Lake Mountain this time would not only allow her to be with Lu Changsheng, but also to accompany her daughter, making her momentarily excited.

“Forget it, you just need to be aware of this yourself, this master can’t say much more to you.”

Yun Wushang sighed and said nothing more.

She knew that Xiao Xiyue could only rely on herself in this matter.

Then, she took out two Tier 3 talismans from her storage ring and gave them to Xiao Xiyue to protect herself.

After all, the Xiahou family’s ancestor, Xiahou Wuwo, was still alive.

If this Xiahou ancestor targeted Azure Lake Mountain and retaliated, it might be quite dangerous.

She naturally had to give this disciple some life-saving treasures.

“Thank you, Master.”

Xiao Xiyue bowed with cupped hands.

“Your matter of going to Azure Lake Mountain to guard it counts as an external mission, so don’t reveal your whereabouts to the outside world.”

“Also, regarding Green River Square, you should go to Azure Lake Mountain after the New Era Envoy arrives.”

Yun Wushang continued to say.

“Yes, Master!”

Xiao Xiyue nodded in response.

Then, she took out a token from her storage bag.

“Master, a friend of mine named ‘Han Li’ previously rescued Senior Sister on the way to Nine Heavens Immortal City, and Real Person Chiyan gave him a Qingyun Token.”

“I would like to use this Qingyun Token to invite a Tier 2 Array Formation Master from the sect to help set up a large array at Azure Lake Mountain.”

Xiao Xiyue took out the Qingyun Token in Lu Changsheng’s hand and said aloud.

“This rogue cultivator Han Li, is he Lu Changsheng?”

Yun Wushang glanced at the token and said directly.

She had previously guessed that the rogue cultivator Han Li who saved her eldest disciple was Lu Changsheng.

Now, seeing this Qingyun Token, she was almost certain.

“I knew I couldn’t hide it from Master.”

A playful smile appeared on Xiao Xiyue’s face.

She immediately knew that her master had seen through Lu Changsheng’s disguise before and guessed many things clearly.

This made her pause slightly, wondering if her master knew about her giving birth to Lu Wangshu.

“Still playing these little tricks in front of your master.”

A faint smile appeared on Yun Wushang’s face.

Thinking of her eldest disciple Chu Qingyi, she looked at Xiao Xiyue and continued, “Your senior sister is still healing, adjusting her state, and preparing to break through to the Core Formation stage.”

“So, don’t let Qingyi know about this rogue cultivator Han Li.”

Yun Wushang said like this.

“Don’t let Senior Sister know?”

Xiao Xiyue was surprised when she heard this, not knowing what it meant.

She couldn’t help but guess, could it be that her senior sister also had some entanglement with Lu Changsheng?

Although she didn’t have much contact with her senior sister, she also knew that her senior sister was wholeheartedly focused on the sword, and her sword heart was clear.

Wait, the sword…

At this moment, Xiao Xiyue vaguely realized something in her heart.

She cupped her hands towards Yun Wushang and said, “Master, this disciple understands.”

“Take my token and go find Master Mo, let him go to Azure Lake Mountain to set up a large array.”

Yun Wushang took out a token and said to Xiao Xiyue.

“Yes, Master!”

Xiao Xiyue nodded in response.

She knew that this Master Mo was a top-tier Tier 2 Array Formation Master.

His array formation skills were exquisite and superb, and he had set up large arrays for many markets of the Qingyun Sect.

Azure Lake Mountain.

Longevity Hall, in the closed-door cultivation cave.

“Huff!”

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and exhaled lightly.

He placed his palm in front of his chest and closed his eyes to experience it.

“If I want to fuse the Nine Treasures Jade Ruyi into my natal treasure bone, it will take at least two to three years.”

Lu Changsheng sighed slightly as he felt this progress, knowing that this kind of thing couldn’t be rushed.

He didn’t stay in complete seclusion, walked out of the hall, and looked at the situation of his secular children.

These children would all live in Azure Lake Mountain for a period of time.

Lu Changsheng visited these children, and based on their talents, gave them some simple guidance for the future.

Now, the Lu family could be completely divided into the Azure Lake Mountain Lu family and the Ruyi County Lu family.

Regarding the secular side, now that Lu Ping’an was in Azure Lake Mountain, Lu Wuyu was the eldest son in the secular world.

He directly designated the position of the head of the family to his son Lu Wuyu.

As for Lu Wuyu’s housekeeper, he had been a magistrate for so many years, and he was good at handling things in all aspects.

If you really want to say something, it’s that his personality is a bit indecisive and lacks courage.

But just serving as the head of the Lu family in the secular world doesn’t require him to have any great courage.

“Wuyu, from now on, you will be in charge of the Ruyi County side.”

“If you have anything, you can ask your Uncle Hong more, or you can write a letter to Azure Lake Mountain.”

Lu Changsheng said to Lu Wuyu.

This son was relatively quiet when he was a child, and liked to read books alone when others were playing.

At first, Lu Changsheng wondered if this son would become a bookworm.

“Yes, Father.”

Lu Wuyu nodded with a somewhat heavy face when he heard this.

He knew that after this separation, his father would probably rarely come to Ruyi County.

“This is my arrangement for some of the family’s rules and regulations, you can take a look.”

Lu Changsheng took out a jade book and continued to say.

This was the Lu family’s reward and punishment rules and regulations that he had previously agreed upon with Lu Miaoyun and Ling Zixiao.

“Okay, Father.”

Lu Wuyu took the jade book and responded respectfully.

“You just say yes yes yes without even looking, tell me directly what you think after you finish reading.”

Lu Changsheng slapped his son on the head when he saw this, and said angrily.

He also knew that he usually didn’t spend much time together, and coupled with the fact that he had become a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he was full of majesty in the eyes of many children, and they were very respectful to him.

So basically whatever he said, the children would completely listen.

“This child will look now.”

Seeing this, Lu Wuyu recalled the time he spent with his father when he was young, immediately scratched his head and smiled, and opened the jade book to read.

“Father, this child believes that there will definitely be domineering people among our Lu family’s children, and there are already some signs of it.”

The latest novel is first published on 69shu.com!

“Therefore, in my opinion, a Clan Head should be established to supervise the younger generations of the family more closely.”

“Furthermore, regarding finances, I believe we cannot rely entirely on Azure Lake Mountain. With our family’s relationship with Uncle Hong and your reputation, Father, we can absolutely engage in business and become self-sufficient.”

After reading, Lu Wuyu spoke up, offering his suggestions.

During his years in the mortal world, he served as a county magistrate through Hong Yi’s connections.

He knew that if his family continued on its current path, many overbearing and profligate descendants would inevitably emerge.

Moreover, if the mortal Lu family became too dependent on the Azure Lake Mountain Lu family, this situation would only worsen.

Additionally, with so many younger siblings now, future divisions of the family and the establishment of branch families are inevitable.

“Since that’s the case, the family will establish a Clan Head to oversee family etiquette, rules, and regulations. The power of enforcement will be in your hands as the Family Head.”

“You can also form an enforcement team to carry out enforcement and punishment. As for finances, business, and fiscal matters, handle them as you see fit. In the event of a family division, the Family Head will have unified control.”

Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment before speaking.

The division of the family among the children was inevitable.

For example, the Lu residence in Ruyi Prefecture has already been expanded once.

Once these children gradually start their own families, the Lu residence in Ruyi Prefecture will simply not be able to accommodate everyone, and divisions will certainly occur.

Lu Changsheng didn’t intend to force all the children to stay together, allowing them to divide into multiple branches as they pleased.

“However, in terms of spirit rice, you still need to practice martial arts on a daily basis, and that cannot be reduced.”

“Therefore, it’s sufficient for you to earn enough for daily expenses. Rewards for spirit rice, martial arts training, and childbirth will still be fully covered by Azure Lake Mountain.”

Lu Changsheng said.

He would naturally not reduce expenses related to his children’s martial arts training and childbirth.

After all, with spirit rice and spirit cuisine, his children could make rapid progress in martial arts.

Furthermore, consuming more spirit rice, even if both parents are mortals, increases the probability of their future children being born with spiritual roots compared to normal circumstances.

“Mm.”

Lu Wuyu nodded and continued to offer some additional suggestions.

After the father and son finished discussing matters, Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Wuyu and his other children, unsure of what to say for a moment.

With too many children and too little time spent together, there was ultimately a lack of common topics.

Moreover, as the children grew older, the relaxed atmosphere of their childhood was also lost.

Half a month later.

Inside the talisman room in the Longevity Hall.

Lu Changsheng was drawing talismans.

Just then, a system notification sounded in Lu Changsheng’s mind.

[Congratulations, Host! Twenty of your descendants have broken through to the Martial Dao Innate Realm, granting you the Bloodline Effect: Increased probability of offspring reproduction by 5%! You have also received one lucky draw opportunity!]

“Hmm, twenty also yields a reward.”

Lu Changsheng, who was currently crafting talismans, revealed a delighted smile upon hearing this system notification.

Having received a reward for the first ten children breaking through to the Martial Dao Innate Realm, he had been eagerly anticipating how many more children would be needed for subsequent rewards.

After all, compared to the Qi Induction stage of cultivating immortality, the Martial Dao has no spiritual root restrictions.

As long as he continuously invested money, all of these children could achieve the Martial Dao Innate Realm.

It was possible that it wouldn’t be just ten children per reward.

Seeing that twenty children now yielded a reward, he felt a small surprise.

“System, draw!”

Lu Changsheng didn’t think much and muttered in his heart.

He was preparing to see what he could draw this time.

Instantly, a light red roulette wheel with golden light appeared and began to spin for the lucky draw.

[Ding! Congratulations, Host! You have obtained the magical treasure: Azure Sea Pearl!]

[The reward has been distributed to the system space. Host, you can check it at any time.]

The golden light stopped on the ‘Magical Treasure’ column.

Immediately, a string of azure blue pearls emerged from the roulette wheel, accompanied by a system notification.

“Magical treasure? Azure Sea Pearl?”

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly as he looked at the magical treasure before him.

He already had a magical treasure gathering dust in the system space, and now he was getting another one.

“A magical treasure is still a magical treasure, I suppose. When Ping’an and the others reach a higher cultivation level, if they can master the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, these magical treasures can gradually come in handy.”

“Moreover, once my Nine Treasures Jade Ruyi refines my Natal Treasure Bone, it will no longer be able to assist in cultivation.”

“Currently, the Black Dragon Magic Pearl and the magical treasure embryo will likely be scrapped after my Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art breaks through to the sixth level. It’s good to have a few magical treasures on standby now.”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

Then, he looked into the system space to see what this Azure Sea Pearl was.

[Magical Tool: Azure Sea Pearl]

[Grade: High-Grade Magical Treasure]

[Description: Refined from thirty-six Azure Sea Relic Pearls. Each individual pearl is a Quasi-Magical Treasure. When all thirty-six are gathered, they form a High-Grade Magical Treasure capable of manifesting the Azure Sea Surging Wave Formation.]

“It’s actually a combination magical treasure? A formation-based magical treasure?”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes lit up with surprise as he looked at the introduction of the Azure Sea Pearl.

In the world of cultivation, there is a type of magical tool called a combination magical tool, which can be split into multiple magical tools.

In such cases, even if one’s strength is insufficient, they can split the magical tool and unleash part of its power.

And this ‘Azure Sea Pearl’ is not only a combination magical treasure but also a formation-based magical treasure that can manifest the Azure Sea Surging Wave Formation.

“Extract!”

Lu Changsheng was very interested in this magical treasure and didn’t leave it to gather dust in the system space. He directly extracted it to examine it.

Instantly, a string of thirty-six baby fist-sized, crystal-clear pearls with flowing azure light appeared.

“So heavy!”

Lu Changsheng felt his hands sink as he held the string of Azure Sea Pearls.

If it weren’t for his body refinement strength, he felt like he wouldn’t be able to lift them.

Through the system’s detailed introduction of the Azure Sea Pearl, Lu Changsheng’s eyes immediately revealed a look of surprise.

If the Azure Sea Pearl is used as a set, it can manifest the ‘Azure Sea Surging Wave Formation’.

If used individually, the method is very simple and crude: directly use them to smash people!

The Azure Sea Pearl contains the power of heavy water, making it not only incredibly heavy but also capable of unleashing light and causing dizziness to others’ divine sense and senses.

Therefore, ordinary cultivators who face a smashing Azure Sea Pearl may accidentally perish.

But what truly surprised Lu Changsheng was not the power and effect of this magical treasure.

Through the system’s introduction, he learned that the raw materials of the Azure Sea Pearl came from the Mermaid race.

This type of pearl has the effect of nourishing water veins and aquatic creatures.

“Hiss, even if this Azure Sea Pearl isn’t used as a magical treasure, its ability to nourish water veins and aquatic creatures alone makes it a good treasure for me.”

Lu Changsheng’s face was full of surprise.

Currently, the main income of Azure Lake Mountain is aquatic products, the fish and shrimp in Azure Water Lake.

And beneath Azure Water Lake, there is a first-order top-grade spiritual vein.

The Azure Sea Pearl’s ability to nourish water veins and aquatic creatures means that it can nourish the spiritual vein of Azure Water Lake, the spiritual fish and shrimp in the lake, the Crimson Blood Carp, and the Azure Blood Carp.

It might even allow this first-order top-grade spiritual vein to advance to a second-order spiritual vein.

“Moreover, when Zixiao recovers and breaks through to the Golden Core stage in the future, this Azure Sea Pearl can also be given to her as a magical treasure.”

“Eh, Sister Miaoge cultivates the Supreme Goodness Like Water Art, and this Azure Sea Pearl seems quite suitable for her too.”

“Forget it, we’ll talk about magical treasures later. Let’s use this Azure Sea Pearl to nourish the water veins first.”

Lu Changsheng muttered in his heart, planning to discuss the ownership of the magical treasure later.

“However, if I want to nourish the water veins, I can’t just casually put it in Azure Water Lake. It would be a huge loss if someone fished it away.”

Lu Changsheng thought of the time when his son, Lu Qingshan, ran off to dig up his Gold-Armored Bean Mother.

Thinking about it, he should wait for Ling Zixiao to recover a bit before considering using this Azure Sea Pearl to set up a formation in Azure Water Lake to nourish the water veins.
