Chapter 36: Marry Qu Zhenzhen!

As a Cultivator Family, the Lu Family of Qingzhu Mountain Village naturally couldn’t just let anyone in.

At least Lu Changsheng didn’t have that qualification yet.

However, the disciples guarding the entrance recognized Lu Changsheng and didn’t make things too difficult.

Seeing that Qu Zhenzhen had no cultivation and was just an ordinary person, they performed a brief check and then allowed them to pass.

They only asked Lu Changsheng to report to Butler Fu.

“Thank you.”

Lu Changsheng nodded in thanks, then took Qu Zhenzhen and Li Feiyu to Qingzhu Mountain Village to return the Spirit Steed to Butler Fu and report the matter.

Butler Fu saw Lu Changsheng return from an outing with a young girl and looked peculiar, somewhat speechless.

He thought to himself, Lu Changsheng had previously re-signed the contract and asked if he could marry a wife or take concubines. So this was what he was waiting for.

He couldn’t take concubines from the Lu Family, so he brought one from outside, right?

But it was just bringing a woman, so Butler Fu didn’t say anything, nor could he say much.

After all, apart from his fondness for women, Lu Changsheng had performed very well in all aspects of Talismans, and the Lu Family was quite satisfied.

However, after realizing that Qu Zhenzhen possessed a Spiritual Root, Butler Fu became a bit more serious.

He told Lu Changsheng that he could bring people in in the future, but he couldn’t casually bring Cultivators or people with Spiritual Roots into Qingzhu Mountain.

Because the Spiritual Qi of a Spiritual Vein is limited.

One more person Cultivating means one more portion of Spiritual Qi consumed.

For the Spiritual Vein of Qingzhu Mountain, a few more people naturally wouldn’t matter, it was irrelevant.

But these were the rules of the Lu Family.

If anyone could just bring people in, and everyone brought their relatives and friends into Qingzhu Mountain, wouldn’t Qingzhu Mountain become overcrowded?

Especially since Lu Changsheng resided in Qingzhu Valley, he was even more restricted from bringing people in casually.

So Butler Fu told Lu Changsheng that he could bring a maximum of two people.

If he wanted to bring more people in the future, he would have to pay Spirit Stones.

As for the Nine Nether Mastiff, Butler Fu didn’t say anything.

It was very normal for a Cultivator to raise a Yao Beast as a Spirit Pet, and the Lu Family had no rules restricting this.

And Yao Beast species were diverse and numerous. The current Nine Nether Mastiff was still a cub, looking like a small wolfdog and not very noticeable.

So Butler Fu didn’t pay much attention, only instructing Lu Changsheng to be careful and mindful.

There were so many children in the Family; it wouldn’t be good if the pet injured a child.

Lu Changsheng naturally nodded in agreement to these words.

Then, after thanking Butler Fu, he carried the Nine Nether Mastiff and took Qu Zhenzhen back to his residence.

When Lu Changsheng brought Qu Zhenzhen home, his wives and concubines naturally had no objections.

Although the Lu Family was a Cultivator Family, Lu Changsheng’s wives and concubines had all grown up in the secular world and held some feudal ideas.

Especially after Lu Changsheng displayed his Talismans talent, his status in the Lu Family rose, and he moved to Qingzhu Valley, his wives and concubines in the inner courtyard became even more harmonious.

It was no exaggeration to say that the husband was the guiding principle for his wives.

After Lu Changsheng briefly explained Qu Zhenzhen’s pitiable background to his wives and concubines, they showed great care for this new sister.

They helped Qu Zhenzhen quickly integrate into this new Family.

However, due to the great change she had experienced and now being in an unfamiliar environment, Qu Zhenzhen severely lacked a sense of security and clung most to Lu Changsheng.

Whenever she saw Lu Changsheng, she would stick by his side.

Lu Changsheng didn’t mind this.

He also spent more time each day cultivating and deepening his relationship with Qu Zhenzhen.

After more than half a month of deepening their relationship, Qu Zhenzhen completely opened her heart to Lu Changsheng.

She revealed all information about her Family situation.

She came from a scholarly Family in Zhou Shan Prefecture, Dongyang Commandery, Qingzhou.

Apart from her Older Brother Qu Changge who went to the capital for the imperial examination, everyone else in her Family had suffered the old man’s cruel hand in that incident.

Her previous statement about having no relatives was also because she knew that Lu Changsheng couldn’t possibly take her to find her Older Brother at that time.

There was also a bit of an intention to cling to Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu.

After all, she was in a state of fear, panic, and despair at the time.

At this moment, encountering Lu Changsheng and Li Feiyu, who saved her like heroes, was naturally like a ray of dawn appearing in the darkness, and she wanted to grasp it tightly.

Otherwise, as a weak woman, she wouldn’t know what to do in the future.

And after spending this time together, growing closer to Lu Changsheng, she was also very glad of her choice.

Knowing that Lu Changsheng was someone she could entrust her life to, she also developed affection for him, so she held nothing back.

Finally, she also requested Lu Changsheng to help her find her Older Brother Qu Changge and inform him about her Family’s situation and her current circumstances.

As for avenging her Father and Mother, she did not mention it.

It might also be that she knew this matter would not be easy for Lu Changsheng, so she didn’t mention it.

For such a small matter, Lu Changsheng naturally agreed, stating that he would have someone help search for her Older Brother.

At the same time, seeing Qu Zhenzhen open her heart, Lu Changsheng also proposed marriage.

Facing this request, Qu Zhenzhen naturally nodded shyly in agreement.

Subsequently, Lu Changsheng asked Butler Fu for help and held a simple wedding at Qingzhu Mountain Village, marrying Qu Zhenzhen.

After all, the young girl was all alone and came to Qingzhu Mountain with him, so Lu Changsheng would naturally give her enough security and a proper status.

“Why did Lu Changsheng marry again?”

“He went out for a while recently and brought a woman back.”

“My goodness, he’s already married nine, why is he still marrying!”

“He has over ten children, and he’s still having more.”

“Unbelievable, it’s just unbelievable. He clearly doesn’t need to have fifty children anymore, so why is he still having them like this?”

“It’s clear he truly loves children.”

“Doesn’t he need to Cultivate?”

“Does he look like he’s Cultivating by marrying wives, taking concubines, and having babies like this?”

“I just used the Spirit Eye Technique to take a look; this new bride has a Spiritual Root.”

“Hiss, no wonder…”

Many Lu Family disciples and Immortal Seedlings attended Lu Changsheng’s wedding and sighed at his new marriage.

After all, he already had nine wives and concubines.

For a Cultivator of his age, this undoubtedly implied a bit of giving up on Cultivation.

The Immortal Seedlings, in particular, didn’t know what to say about it.

Lu Changsheng clearly no longer had to be forced to have children, yet he actively married and frantically had children.

And they, who clearly didn’t want to marry and have children, only wanted to Cultivate, yet had to procreate.

The wedding was very simple, with no elaborate ceremony, just a formality.

Then, a meal was served to the Lu Family disciples and Immortal Seedlings of Qingzhu Mountain Village, making it a small lively event.

This wedding banquet cost Lu Changsheng a total of twenty-four Spirit Stones.

As for the gifts from others, Lu Changsheng returned them all.

It wasn’t that he disliked having too much money.

The Lu Family disciples and Immortal Seedlings of Qingzhu Mountain Village were already poor and lived difficult lives.

His finances were quite good now, so there was no need to covet this small amount of money.

Otherwise, people might say behind his back that he deliberately held a wedding to scam gift money.

Lu Changsheng also gave a red envelope to his good Older Brother, Li Feiyu.

After all, Li Feiyu was considered a witness to him and Qu Zhenzhen, so he naturally had to show some appreciation.

At the same time, he also troubled Li Feiyu to write a letter back to the Crimson Whale Gang, asking for help in finding Qu Zhenzhen’s Older Brother, Qu Changge.

After the wedding banquet was mostly finished, Lu Changsheng went to the bridal chamber.

“Zhenzhen.”

Lu Changsheng saw Qu Zhenzhen sitting on the bed, adorned in a Phoenix coronet and robes, covered by a red veil, and called out.

Qu Zhenzhen didn’t make a sound, but her small feet, wearing red embroidered shoes beneath her skirt, couldn’t help but gently retract.

Seeing this, Lu Changsheng chuckled softly, came to Qu Zhenzhen’s side, and gently lifted the red veil.

Revealing Qu Zhenzhen’s delicate, fair-skinned, and shy face, as if carved from pink jade.

“Husband.”

Qu Zhenzhen’s tender white face was flushed with a blush as she timidly called out.

Even after spending so much time with Lu Changsheng and having developed reliance and affection for him, Qu Zhenzhen still appeared shy.

That was simply her personality.

“Zhenzhen, it’s time to rest.”

Lu Changsheng looked at Qu Zhenzhen, whose eyes were downcast, face full of shyness, and hands not knowing where to hide, and sat on the bed, embracing her.

“Husband, the candles aren’t blown out yet… Mmm~”

Qu Zhenzhen said in a soft, sweet voice, but before she could finish, she let out a soft groan.
