Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family

Chapter 459: Don’t be too aggressive at this age!

Yan Yu Trading Post.

“Since this Yan Yu Trading Post is an appendage of our Azure Lake Mountain, we cannot tolerate the Sima family’s impudence.”

Lu Wangshu, dressed in a pink and white skirt, with her black hair flowing freely, and a pair of beautiful eyes like moonlight, said coldly.

“Miss Lu, our Xuanwu Ridge does not wish to be enemies with your Azure Lake Mountain.”

“However, I have a Sima family member who has gone missing in this Yan Yu Trading Post. I have come to investigate the situation. Are you, Azure Lake Mountain, also going to interfere? Isn’t that too overbearing?”

Outside the trading post, an elder of the Sima family stood with his hands behind his back, saying in a deep voice.

They had previously prepared to question Yan Yu Trading Post, but after learning that the Second Master of Yan Yu Trading Post had directly married Lu Changsheng as a concubine, they were unwilling to have a direct conflict and dropped the matter.

But now that Lu Changsheng is dead in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, their Sima family naturally cannot make concessions in everything and wants to regain some face.

Otherwise, if it spreads out, the world will think that their Sima family is afraid of Azure Lake Mountain!

“Overbearing?”

Lu Wangshu, upon hearing this, revealed a disdainful expression on her beautiful face, which was free of any makeup, and said, “At your age, there’s no need to fabricate such childish reasons.”

“I’ll make it clear: if you dare to step into the trading post today, you will bear the consequences!”

Her calm and crisp words were filled with endless contempt.

“Hiss, this Talisman Fairy is really domineering!”

“She indeed has the capital to be arrogant. At such a young age, she broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage and even single-handedly killed five Foundation Establishment cultivators.”

“But this person is not simple either. An elder of the Sima family, and a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even if the talisman array is powerful, it might not be a match, right?”

“A tree that stands out in the forest will be blown down by the wind.”

Many cultivators in Yan Yu Trading Post, upon seeing this scene, sighed in a low voice.

Even the Trading Post Masters, Yan Lan and Yu Fei, exchanged glances, feeling that this Miss Lu was too arrogant.

Their cultivations were both higher than Lu Wangshu’s.

One was at the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, and the other was at the fourth level.

But even they didn’t dare to be so disrespectful to this Sima family elder.

“Hmph, a little girl dares to speak such wild words. This old man has eaten more salt than you’ve walked roads! These words would be more appropriate coming from Lu Changsheng or Lu Ping’an!”

The Sima family elder said with a slightly沉 face.

At his age, he valued face the most.

Being provoked and looked down upon by a junior like Lu Wangshu at this time made him somewhat angry.

Moreover, Lu Ping’an and Ling Zixiao had killed the Sima family’s Core Formation seed.

If he could take this opportunity to cripple Lu Wangshu, he could not only avenge his grudge but also cause Azure Lake Mountain immense pain, even risking its downfall.

However, he was very cautious, observing his surroundings, wanting to know if Lu Ping’an was hiding in the shadows.

“My father and older brother are here? You dare say that? I’m afraid they would have already scurried back with their tails between their legs, or not even dared to show their faces, right?”

Lu Wangshu, upon hearing this, looked at the Sima family elder with a contemptuous expression, as if looking at an idiot.

“You sharp-tongued little girl, since that’s the case, then this old man will teach you a lesson on behalf of your father!”

The Sima family elder’s face twitched as he said in a cold voice, the look in his eyes towards Lu Wangshu now carrying a hint of killing intent.

“Old thing, the road is slippery at night. Don’t be too arrogant at your age, or you won’t even know how you died.”

Lu Wangshu crossed her arms, her delicate chin slightly raised, glanced at him, and continued.

“Hiss!”

“Hiss!”

“Hiss!”

The rogue cultivators in the trading post, as well as the two Trading Post Masters, Yan Lan and Yu Fei, couldn’t help but gasp.

One had to know that this Fourth Elder of the Sima family was over a hundred years old, almost two hundred years old.

Now, he was actually being warned by a junior like Lu Wangshu, about the road being slippery at night and not being too arrogant.

How did it feel like the identities of the two had been swapped?

“Courting death!”

The Sima family elder’s face instantly turned as dark as pig’s liver as he charged towards Lu Wangshu, intending to kill her.

However, just as he rushed murderously to the trading post gate, Lu Wangshu formed a hand seal with both hands.

“Boom boom boom!”

In an instant, beams of light soared into the sky at the trading post entrance.

Immediately afterward, talisman after talisman emerged in succession, coiling around the Sima family elder, bombarding and suppressing him.

“Alas, I told you not to be arrogant, why didn’t you listen?”

Lu Wangshu held a formation disk in one hand and the Nine-Nine Mysterious Talisman Chart in the other, shaking her head.

Her face was bright and jade-like, beautiful beyond compare, but it made others feel a chill in their hearts.

“Isn’t this woman a Talisman Master? How does she also know formations?”

“Could it be that the Lu family’s Matriarch, Ling Zixiao, is also here!”

“The art of talisman arrays is also a type of formation, which can be set up in advance.”

“No, with such methods, she definitely understands formations and is a Formation Master!”

“Whether it’s the Dao of Talismans or the Dao of Formations, both are profound and extensive. This woman is not only a Talisman Master but also a Formation Master!”

The rogue cultivators in the trading post, as well as some cultivators who were paying attention here, exclaimed and discussed in low voices upon seeing this scene.

They never expected that Lu Wangshu was also a Formation Master!?

Such talent was simply astonishing!

The Nine-Nine Mysterious True Tokens in Lu Wangshu’s hand shot out, suppressing the Sima family elder within the talisman array.

Then, she looked at the few Sima family disciples not far away, who were hesitating, and said indifferently, “Go back and tell the Sima family to prepare spirit stones and come to redeem him.”

Upon seeing this scene, these few Sima family disciples looked at Lu Wangshu’s side, Yan Lan and Yu Fei, who were exuding a menacing aura, and finally gritted their teeth and left.

“Hmm, this old man should be able to earn quite a bit of money, right?”

At this time, Lu Wangshu looked at the Sima family elder who was suppressed by her, her beautiful eyes curved, and she smiled happily.

She knew that the Sima family had previously compensated 200,000 spirit stones, a spirit land, and ten shops in order to redeem Sima Tong.

The Sima family elder that she was suppressing now should be worth at least 100,000 spirit stones, right?

If she only relied on drawing talismans to earn money, how long would it take her to earn so many spirit stones? Where would she get the money to cultivate talisman soldiers?

Moreover, suppressing people through talisman arrays and then waiting for their families to come and redeem them wasn’t the same as selling her talismans?

It was just a different method, and the price of the talismans was even more valuable.

In the crowd, a young man with ordinary features but sharp, piercing eyes, his pupils seemingly glowing with a faint golden light, saw this scene, took a deep look at Lu Wangshu, and then put the golden bean the size of a chicken egg back into his spirit pet bag.

Lu Wangshu seemed to notice the young man’s gaze and made a simple gesture towards him.

At the same time.

Jin State, Black Mist Swamp.

The entire swamp was covered in a layer of purplish-black hazy mist, like poisonous gas, miasma, eerie and sinister.

As one went deeper into the swamp, this purplish-black poisonous miasma became thicker and thicker, seemingly eroding the vitality of all things at all times.

At this time, deep in the swamp, a stone forest of chaotic rocks and poisonous miasma.

A young man with delicate features, wearing a wide black robe, was sitting cross-legged in the poisonous miasma, with endless poisonous miasma swirling around his body.

If one looked closely, one could see that this poisonous miasma, which eroded other people’s vitality and lives, was actually being absorbed into his body.

“Boom!”

After an unknown amount of time, the black-robed youth’s body surged with energy, his robe fluttering, burning with a purplish-green flame, making his entire person like a purplish-green sun burning.

“Now that the Myriad Poison True Body is complete, the poisonous miasma in the outer regions is not only harmless to me but even has a certain benefit.”

“Under such circumstances, with my strength, wanting to break through the encirclement and escape this swamp mountain range shouldn’t be a problem.”

The black-robed youth turned his head, looked in the direction of the mountain range, and murmured.

“Even with the help of the Poisonous Miasma Gourd and the Netherworld Poison Fire, I am confident that I can kill them all!”

Lu Quanzhen narrowed his slender eyes, a cold light flashing, and a murderous intent.

He had been chased and killed before, fleeing all the way to this Black Mist Swamp.

In the end, he relied on the 《Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Demon Art》 to escape danger and survive in this swamp.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune depend on each other. While being chased by a group of poisonous insects, he accidentally broke into a mysterious cave and obtained a fortuitous inheritance from it.

It was also for this reason that his cultivation directly broke through from the fourth level of Foundation Establishment to the fifth level, just a little short of reaching the peak of the fifth level.

“Let’s go.”

Lu Quanzhen got up and stretched out his palm towards a giant rock beside him.

Immediately, a golden silkworm, exuding a fierce and bloodthirsty aura, suddenly crawled out from under the stone and flew onto his palm and into his sleeve.

Then, his entire person flew away in the direction he had come from.

Five Poison Sect.

A magnificent palace.

“Sister Xiaochun, I heard that the Heavenly Sword Sect of Jiang State has a second Nascent Soul True Monarch.”

“Two Nascent Soul True Monarchs used the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm to set up a trap, almost ambushing the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch of the Heavenly Fiend Sect of Liang State. Mother’s trip to Jiang State shouldn’t be dangerous, right?”

Nangong Yaoyao knew that her mother’s trip to Jiang State was for the sake of the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm.

Therefore, she had been paying attention to news in this area all these years.

When she heard the news from Jiang State a few days ago, she immediately worried about her mother’s safety.

“Yaoyao, don’t worry, I’ve already confirmed it. Master’s soul lamp is fine, which means there’s no danger.”

Meng Xiaochun looked at the worried look on the girl’s face in front of her, stepped forward, gently stroked her waterfall-like soft black hair, and softly comforted her, “Now that the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm is over, I think it won’t be long before Master returns.”

In addition to worrying about her master’s situation, she was also very worried about Lu Changsheng’s situation.

After all, she knew that her master’s trip to Jiang State was not solely for the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm but for Lu Changsheng.

Now that the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm was over and her master was fine, it meant that she would definitely go and find trouble with Lu Changsheng next.

“I hope Master will spare Lu Lang for Yaoyao’s sake.”

Meng Xiaochun sighed in her heart, thinking like this.

“Mm-hmm.”

Nangong Yaoyao, upon hearing Meng Xiaochun say that her mother’s soul lamp was fine, revealed a sweet smile on her delicate and beautiful face and nodded in response.

However, deep within her starry and dreamlike beautiful eyes, there was still a hint of worry.

“Sister Xiaochun, I remember that you went to the Jiang State Immortal Cultivation World with Mother early on to carry out missions. I heard it was very dangerous. Can you tell me about it?”

At this moment, Nangong Yao Yao looked at Meng Xiaochun in front of her, held her jade arm, blinked her big eyes, and said somewhat casually.

“Executing a mission.”

Meng Xiaochun’s heart couldn’t help but pause when she heard this.

But she still responded with a doting face: “Okay~”

The Great Dream Marsh, vast and misty, with rippling water, stretches out as far as the eye can see.

Looking into the distance, one can see many fishing boats, bamboo rafts, sampans, black-awning boats, spirit boats, and even demon-hunting boats on the lake.

As the saying goes, people who live near the mountains live off the mountains, and people who live near the water live off the water.

The Great Dream Marsh is rich in aquatic products, with not only many spirit fish but also many demon beasts.

Therefore, not only ordinary people come to fish, but also many rogue cultivators and family forces form groups to go out to sea to hunt demons.

At this time, Fang Li stood on the black-awning boat, lifting the fishing net she had cast yesterday, her thin face full of loss and depression.

“There are no spirit fish again. It’s been three days since I went out to sea, and I’ve burned three demon-repelling incense sticks, but I haven’t gained anything.”

“If there’s no harvest, then my mother’s illness…”

Fang Li tightened her somewhat thin clothes and pursed her lips lightly.

She is a rogue cultivator living on White Whale Island.

Originally, her family life was pretty good.

But half a year ago, her father and brother encountered an accident while fishing at sea, and her mother, upon hearing this bad news, suffered a blood rush to the heart and fell seriously ill.

Faced with this situation, she could only earn spirit stones by going out to sea to fish.

However, for the past six months, fishing has only barely sustained her life.

Looking at her seriously ill mother, she tried to go deeper into the Great Dream Marsh, but after burning three demon-repelling incense sticks, she still hadn’t caught any spirit fish, which filled her heart with depression and heartache.

One must know that a demon-repelling incense stick is worth four low-grade spirit stones.

Even if three sticks have a discount, they still require ten spirit stones, which is a huge sum for her.

“Should I go a little deeper?”

Fang Li looked at the boundless, misty lake and pondered in her heart.

But as she thought this, her expression was somewhat fearful.

After all, the deeper one goes, the more dangerous it becomes.

If she encountered an accident, then her mother would probably…

But looking at the last demon-repelling incense stick in her arms, she still gritted her teeth and rowed towards the depths.

Otherwise, if this trip yields nothing, she will be penniless.

After going several miles deeper, she lowered the fishing net and fish trap, waiting for the spirit fish to take the bait.

“If I break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining and learn the Water Evasion Technique and Water Arrow Technique, I can go underwater to fish and even join the demon-hunting fleet.”

Fang Li looked at the burning demon-repelling incense stick in front of her, fantasizing about the future.

Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, she glanced in the direction of White Whale Island, preparing to pull up the fishing net.

“Eh, there’s a harvest!”

As soon as she lifted it, she realized there was a harvest, and then she saw something shimmering, so she quickly used her strength to pull up the fishing net.

In the fishing net, there were not only several spirit fish but also a cyan lotus seat with a crystal-clear luster.

“What is this? Could it be some kind of spirit artifact?”

Fang Li looked at the lotus seat, her whole body was shocked, her face full of joy.

Although she is a cultivator, she has never seen a spirit artifact.

The only magical artifact she had ever seen was her father’s fish-hunting crossbow.

But at this time, she could tell at a glance that this lotus seat looked much more precious than her father’s fish-hunting crossbow.

After taking the lotus seat out of the fishing net, she held the crystal-clear lotus seat, constantly looking at it, her hands trembling with excitement.

At this moment, she felt as if a cool and mysterious meaning was flowing from the lotus seat in her hand, causing the bottleneck that she didn’t know how long it would take to break through was actually a little restless at this moment.

“This…”

Fang Li was immediately shocked, dumbfounded, looking at the lotus seat in her hand with an incredulous expression.

Although her understanding of immortal cultivation is limited.

But she also knows that treasures that can help people break through realms are definitely worthy of being called supreme treasures!

“Is this an illusion?”

She swallowed her saliva.

Then she reached out and pinched her arm, feeling pain, knowing that this was not an illusion.

“I actually picked up such a treasure.”

Fang Li was a little dizzy from being suddenly hit by such an opportunity.

She had heard many stories of people picking up opportunities and treasures and rising up when she was a child.

But she didn’t expect that such a thing would happen to her.

“This lotus seat must be kept secret.”

After a while, Fang Li calmed down and clenched her fist.

Not only does she need to use the lotus seat to cultivate and break through her realm.

But also, a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime.

Knowing that once the news of such a treasure is leaked, it will attract endless trouble, and even the island owner will be moved.

Fang Li quickly took out a bundle and wrapped the lotus seat well.

Then she put the spirit fish into the fish basket, her heart full of excitement, and rowed towards White Whale Island.

“Splash, splash, splash——”

Fang Li noticed that she had gone too deep this time, and the demon-repelling incense could not support her to return safely.

She kept chanting in her mouth, hoping not to encounter any demon beasts.

However, what you fear comes to pass.

“Splash, splash——”

A three-foot-long, jet-black, sharp-mouthed strange fish burst out of the lake, spraying several water arrows from its mouth.

“Water Shield Technique!”

Fang Li quickly pinched her fingers and condensed a water shield.

But as soon as the water shield formed, it was corroded and pierced by the water arrows, causing a large hole in her black-awning boat, and it began to sink.

“It’s over!”

Fang Li knew that once she had no boat, she would be even less likely to be a match for this demon beast.

“Help, treasure, help!”

At this time, she thought of the lotus seat she had obtained.

She felt that this should be a top-level treasure that surpassed spirit artifacts.

Maybe the treasure has spirituality and can save her life.

“Hmm?”

Within the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, Lu Changsheng felt something, opened his eyes, and was a little surprised.

He didn’t expect the lotus seat to have floated in this water area for so long and was actually picked up by someone.

“It’s good to have someone, I can just ask what place this is.”

Lu Changsheng’s mind moved, and his body was rippling with dots of light, and the whole person disappeared.

Chu Qingyi next to him saw this scene, a little surprised and suspicious, not knowing what was going on with Lu Changsheng.

“I didn’t expect that I would die here just after obtaining such an opportunity.”

Fang Li looked at the sharp-mouthed strange fish in front of her, holding the lotus seat in front of her, her heart full of despair.

However, at this moment, a tall and slender figure wearing a black and gorgeous magic robe suddenly appeared in front of her.

“咻!”

As soon as this figure appeared, the sharp-mouthed strange fish that was attacking her flew backward and plunged into the water with a ‘plop’.

“Little girl, may I ask where this place is?”

Lu Changsheng turned his head, looked at Fang Li, and asked.

“Is this an immortal?”

Fang Li saw Lu Changsheng’s face, her mouth slightly open, her whole body stunned, her eyes full of amazement.

She has lived for nearly twenty years and has never seen such a good-looking person, simply like a person walking out of a painting.

No, the people in the paintings are not so good-looking, this is an immortal!?

Could it be that the lotus seat she picked up is actually an immortal treasure.

Or is this the artifact spirit in the lotus seat?

“Girl?”

Lu Changsheng looked at the other party’s infatuated appearance and was a little helpless.

He had tried his best to restrain his charm, but this handsome and dashing air was still like the brightest star in the night sky.

“Immortal, this is White Whale Island, my name is Fang Li, I am a rogue cultivator living on White Whale Island, thank you immortal for saving my life!”

Fang Li came back to her senses and quickly said excitedly, her voice a little trembling.

“White Whale Island?”

Lu Changsheng frowned, not knowing where this was.

He continued to ask if this was the Jiang Kingdom, and if there were any famous large forces or large islands nearby.

“Answering immortal, this is the Jiang Kingdom, the largest force here is the Great Dream Immortal City!”

Fang Li quickly said.

“Great Dream Immortal City, Great Dream Marsh.”

Lu Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was still in the Jiang Kingdom.

If he broke through the Void and appeared in other immortal cultivation countries, it would be a little troublesome to go back.

If it is the Great Dream Immortal City, it will take at most a month to rush back with all his strength.

“Do you know where the Great Dream Immortal City is?”

Lu Changsheng continued to ask.

Fang Li was immediately a little embarrassed.

If there hadn’t been changes in her family, she would never have left White Whale Island in her life.

“Since this is the case, let’s go to White Whale Island.”

Lu Changsheng prepared to get a map of the Great Dream Marsh, and by the way, go to the Great Dream Immortal City to take a look, clean up some things, and then go home and propose marriage to Qingyun Sect.

He lightly raised his palm, and the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus in Fang Li’s hand fell into his hand.

Fang Li saw this scene, knowing that this lotus seat should be the other party’s thing.

And the other party is not an artifact spirit, but should be a Foundation Establishment great cultivator.

“Senior, please save my mother, my father and brother went out to sea to fish and encountered danger, and as a result, my mother suffered a blood rush to the heart and fell seriously ill. Senior, you are powerful, please save her.”

“As long as senior can save my mother, this junior is willing to be a slave to senior to repay your great kindness!”

Fang Li bit her lip, knowing that she must seize the opportunity when she encounters such a senior expert, and pleaded.

“It can be considered that you and I met by fate, there is no need to be a slave.”

Lu Changsheng chuckled and stepped forward to put his palm on the other party’s head.

Suddenly, the Six Desires Heart Demon Art was activated, erasing her memory of the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus from her mind.

Then he took Fang Li back to White Whale Island, took out a storage bag, and put some spirit stones, pills, talismans, puppets, and a cultivation technique to give to the other party.

Old Ancestor Lu has been in a very good mood recently.

Since he has some fate with the other party, he is also willing to give a little help.

Moreover, people picked up the Heavenly Yuan Treasure Emperor Lotus, and he, Old Ancestor Lu, took the things and left, which would also be a loss of demeanor for a Core Formation True Person.

After Lu Changsheng bought a sea map on White Whale Island, he turned into a rainbow light and flew towards the Great Dream Immortal City.

“The opportunity is given, do not easily show it to others, lest it attract a murderous disaster, take care of yourself!”

Fang Li looked at the storage bag in her hand, looking at the dazzling natural treasures inside, lightly biting her red lips, only feeling that today’s experience was like a big dream.

“I don’t know this senior’s name, whether I can see him again in this life…”

She murmured in her heart, recalling everything just now, and suddenly found that she couldn’t remember this senior’s face very clearly.

She only remembers that the other party was wearing a black brocade robe, with a slender figure and handsome appearance, like a banished immortal walking out of a painting.
