Chapter 42: Lu Changsheng is going to take another concubine?
“Brother Lu, I heard from Brother Li that you have no other hobbies, only a lifelong love for beauties.”
“So, when I came here this time, I specifically prepared two beauties for you.”
“I paid a considerable price to acquire these two from Baiyu Tower.”
“Brother Lu, you can rest assured, both are pure and untouched.”
“Moreover, under the tutelage of Baiyu Tower, both Cultivate the Scarlet Maiden Nurturing Essence Skill. Their primal yin has the effect of nurturing essence and supplementing yang, and once they lose their virginity, they will be wholeheartedly loyal to you.”
At this moment, Hong Yi spoke to Lu Changsheng, a look of understanding between men on his face.
Lu Changsheng’s mouth twitched upon hearing Hong Yi’s words.
What does he mean, his only lifelong love is beauties?
How could he be someone obsessed with women?
He clearly possesses a towering ambition.
His ambition is to achieve Immortal Ascension!
Marrying and having children is merely a means to survive better in this world and strive towards that goal.
“Sigh.”
This made Lu Changsheng sigh involuntarily in his heart.
He felt that no one in the world could understand him.
However, there was nothing he could do. His towering ambition was destined not to be revealed to the world, nor understood by others.
Conceal cleverness with clumsiness, use obscurity to shine, blend purity with turbidity, and bend to extend!
Only by enduring the most profound humility can one become an Immortal among Immortals!
Lu Changsheng looked at the two women before him, both tall and striking, even a bit taller than him.
Although very alluring, Lu Changsheng wasn’t particularly inclined to accept them.
After all, neither woman possessed a Spiritual Root.
Now that he had ten wives and concubines, he considered that for future marriages and concubinage, he should try to follow a eugenics approach.
That is, to find women with Spiritual Roots to have children.
Otherwise, if he continued to have children this way, not only would most of the children born lack Spiritual Roots, but it would also affect his daily Cultivation.
However.
Since they had already been brought, he couldn’t just send them back, could he?
He also didn’t want to reject Hong Yi’s kind gesture and harm their friendship.
Moreover, looking at the two women, he also wanted to challenge his own weakness and experience some exotic charm.
After all, with so many temptations in this world, if he didn’t temper himself well now, how would he resist greater temptations in the future?
Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment and said, “Brother Hong, are they willing?”
“Brother Lu, please rest assured. Both are orphans adopted by Baiyu Tower, raised and nurtured from a young age, so there are no issues.”
“I, Hong Yi, would never do such a heinous thing.”
Hong Yi naturally knew what Lu Changsheng meant by asking that question.
“Very well, in that case, I will accept this gift, these two individuals.”
“However, our friendship doesn’t require such gestures. Please don’t do this again in the future.”
Lu Changsheng nodded upon hearing this.
“Certainly, certainly, just this once, just this once.”
Hong Yi said with a smiling nod.
Looking at Hong Yi’s smile, Lu Changsheng had a feeling that the latter would do it again in the future.
“Brother Hong has come a long way. Logically, I should invite you in for a cup of tea.”
“However, bringing outside Cultivators into Qingzhu Mountain is very troublesome.”
“So, I won’t invite Brother Hong in as a guest. For our next transaction, you can go to a nearby city and send someone to inform me.”
Lu Changsheng spoke, saying this.
It was fine for ordinary people to enter Qingzhu Mountain, but bringing outside Cultivators in was very troublesome.
“Understood.”
Hong Yi nodded, understanding this perfectly and not caring at all.
He said to Lu Changsheng, “However, I may not come in person next time.”
“If it’s convenient for Brother Lu, you can prepare a batch of Talismans every few months, so I can send someone over without too much worry.”
This time, he came in person not only because it was their first transaction but also because the quantity of Talismans was quite large, making him a bit uneasy.
“Alright, Brother Hong can send someone over every three months from now on.”
“I can provide about thirty Talismans each time.”
Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment and said.
The one hundred Talismans he produced this time had been accumulated over a long period.
However, in the future, ten Talismans a month would be sufficient.
Even if the Lu family knew about it, they wouldn’t say anything.
“Good, no problem.”
Hong Yi was immediately delighted upon hearing this.
Ten Talismans a month was quite good in his opinion.
“By the way, Brother Hong, I have another matter I’d like to trouble you with.”
Lu Changsheng suddenly remembered the matter of his cheap brother-in-law, Qu Changge.
A year had passed, and there was no news from the Crimson Whale Gang. He felt that Qu Changge was likely in dire straits.
However, he still wanted to find him, at least get some news to give Qu Zhenzhen an answer.
“What is it, Brother Lu? Please speak.”
Hong Yi listened, a serious expression on his face.
“I just want you to help me find someone.”
Lu Changsheng spoke, relaying Qu Changge’s information to Hong Yi.
He also mentioned Qu Zhenzhen’s situation, cautioning Hong Yi.
After all, Qu Zhenzhen’s entire family was killed, and this matter might involve a Cultivator.
Although he felt that this Cultivator was probably not very formidable, he still had to be careful.
“Brother Lu, rest assured, I will handle this matter.”
Hong Yi nodded in response after listening.
In his opinion, this matter was neither too troublesome nor too dangerous.
After all, the Ruyi Marquis Manor was considered a significant force in the secular world.
They had some confidence when dealing with a secular Loose Cultivator.
Moreover, friendship is something that needs to be nurtured through frequent interaction.
Currently, Lu Changsheng was willing to sell Talismans to him, but if his connections grew wider and he had more options in the future, that might not be the case.
Therefore, as long as it wasn’t particularly dangerous, he was willing to interact more with Lu Changsheng to solidify and deepen their relationship.
“Then I’ll trouble Brother Hong.”
Lu Changsheng slightly cupped his hands.
“Brother Lu is too polite. In that case, I won’t delay you any longer.”
“Next time, if we have time, I’ll invite Brother Lu and Brother Li to gather together.”
Hong Yi also cupped his hands, preparing to return early.
“Have a safe journey!”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
Immediately, he took the two women back to Qingzhu Mountain.
The Disciples guarding Qingzhu Mountain saw Lu Changsheng leave and return with two more girls, but they didn’t say much.
They just told him to report to Butler Fu.
Then, when Lu Changsheng arrived at Qingzhu Mountain Village with the two women, he went to Butler Fu to report.
Along the way, he was seen by many of Lu’s Disciples.
“Is Lu Changsheng taking another concubine?”
“He’s already married ten, why is he still taking concubines?”
“Hiss, to be honest, these two women are truly alluring!”
“From their appearance, they look a bit like people from the Western Regions.”
“I read in ancient texts that some people from the Western Regions are said to be descendants of gods and demons. Not only do they have异色 (unusual colored) hair and eyes, but some even have two horns on their heads, an eye on their forehead, and wings and tails.”
“What descendants of gods and demons? They’re just human-demon hybrids. I heard my grandfather say that in the Western Regions, there are hundreds, even thousands, of countries, and many of them have mixed populations of humans and demons.”
“I suddenly feel a bit envious of Lu Changsheng’s life.”
“The path to Immortality is difficult. Enjoying life while young isn’t a bad choice.”
“How can you have such self-degrading thoughts! We are Cultivators, dedicated to Cultivation. How can we indulge in beauty and pleasure!”
“Hmph, women will only hinder my Cultivation speed!”
“Exactly, that’s giving up on oneself, a choice for the weak. How can we emulate him, boohoohoo…”
“Our talents are already ordinary. If we choose to degenerate, we are giving up on ourselves. How carefree he is now, but in twenty or thirty years, he will surely regret it!”
These Lu family Disciples spoke, their tones filled with envy, jealousy, unwillingness, disdain, and other emotions.
Butler Fu, seeing Lu Changsheng bring back two more women from who knows where, was momentarily speechless.
But seeing that they were just secular women, he didn’t say much, only sighed that youth was good and told Lu Changsheng to pay attention to his health and not delay important matters.
However, he still advised Lu Changsheng not to keep bringing people in, as it would create a bad impression.
Lu Changsheng naturally nodded in response to this.
He secretly thought to himself, it seems he should reveal his status as a First-Order Middle-Grade Talisman Master soon.
Otherwise, if he continued like this, the Lu family would probably start having opinions about his behavior.
After completing the report with Butler Fu, Lu Changsheng conveniently went to Li Feiyu’s home to chat with him.
Not long after returning last time, Li Feiyu had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Lianqi Third Layer.
However, the Lu family was now urging him to have children.
Under these circumstances, Li Feiyu had also taken four concubines, and now had three children, with two more concubines currently pregnant.
During their conversation, Li Feiyu stated that he had only joked with Hong Yi about sending women and never expected Hong Yi to actually send them.
He also examined the two women Hong Yi sent and said that the Cultivation Technique they practiced was a Cauldron媚功 (seductive skill).
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have the effects of nurturing essence and supplementing yang, or the loyalty upon losing virginity.
That Baiyu Tower was probably an organization specifically for cultivating Cauldrons for high-ranking officials and even Cultivators.
Hong Yi probably paid a hefty price to send this batch of gifts.
After hearing Li Feiyu’s words, Lu Changsheng felt much more at ease about the two women.
Then he took the two women back to his residence in Qingzhu Valley.
Seeing Lu Changsheng return from his outing with two enchanting exotic women, his wives and concubines in the backyard, despite their dignified and virtuous natures, felt a little jealous, which took Lu Changsheng some effort to appease.
