Chapter 581: The promise of Yuanying, a change that has not happened in a thousand years!

Several days later.

Lu Changsheng left Mingyue Residence and arrived at the Immortal Ceremony Hall.

Originally, Xiao Xiyue wanted to accompany him.

But for such a matter, how could he dare to let Xiao Xiyue accompany him?

If the three of them were in the same hall, the conversation would probably become more awkward.

“Greetings, Chang Sheng Zhenren.”

The attendant Disciple of the Immortal Ceremony Hall immediately bowed when he saw Lu Changsheng.

“Please inform her that Lu Changsheng has come to pay his respects to Qingyi Immortal Master.”

Lu Changsheng, dressed in a green robe, spoke with an extraordinary and refined demeanor.

In his early years, people might have found his temperament too outstanding, but with the display of his Core Formation Cultivation, everyone took it for granted.

“Please wait a moment, Chang Sheng Zhenren.”

The attendant Disciple quickly went to report upon hearing this.

Inside the grand hall, Chu Qingyi opened her beautiful eyes, surprised that Lu Changsheng was so bold as to directly come to the Immortal Ceremony Hall to pay her respects.

For a moment, her heart trembled, and her mind was in turmoil, unsure of what to do.

If she didn’t see him, it would feel a bit unreasonable, as if she had a guilty conscience.

Especially since Lu Changsheng was Dao Companion with her Junior Sister, yet she closed her doors to him.

But if she did see him, this person would probably take an inch and ask for a mile, taking advantage of the situation.

At that time, she feared she would find it hard to resist him again.

Looking out of the hall, at Lu Changsheng who seemed unwilling to leave if she didn’t respond, Chu Qingyi sighed in her heart: “He’s truly a troublemaker.”

“Fellow Daoist Changsheng, please come in.”

The hall doors opened with a rumble, and Chu Qingyi’s cool and indifferent voice came out.

Seeing this, Lu Changsheng thought to himself that Chu Qingyi still couldn’t save Face and was easily soft-hearted.

He immediately stepped into the hall, seeing Chu Qingyi in a blue and white sword dress, sitting upright, full of noble majesty.

“I wonder, Fellow Daoist Changsheng…”

Before Chu Qingyi could finish her sentence, Lu Changsheng strode forward, gazing at her with deep, affectionate eyes, and said in a low voice: “Qingyi, I miss you so much.”

Chu Qingyi met Lu Changsheng’s burning, passionate eyes, and her heart immediately trembled, beating ’thump, thump, thump’, but her crystal-clear jade Face remained as if covered in frost, forcing herself to maintain her dignity: “Fellow Daoist Lu, please mind your manners…”

However, as soon as the words left her lips, Lu Changsheng tightly embraced her, and amidst her soft cries, he leaned in and captured those two clear lips.

“You…”

Chu Qingyi’s beautiful eyes widened, her eyelashes trembled, and a look of panic flickered in them.

She wanted to break free but didn’t dare to use her full strength to cause too much commotion. Ultimately, under Lu Changsheng’s forceful and domineering tenderness, she let out a soft hum from her delicate nose and gradually softened.

After a long while, the cool and aloof sword Fairy’s cheeks were flushed, her blue and white dress slightly disheveled, looking at Lu Changsheng with a mix of anger, annoyance, and grievance.

“A day apart feels like three autumns; it’s a sickness of longing, an uncontrollable urge.”

Lu Changsheng looked at her fair and beautiful Face, speaking softly.

Chu Qingyi had long since witnessed Lu Changsheng’s thick skin; how could she believe such words from him? She gave a soft hum and turned her head away.

“Is Qingyi jealous of me and Xiao Xiyue?”

Lu Changsheng shamelessly asked.

Before the other party could answer, he continued: “As long as you nod, Qingyi, I will propose to the Sect Master right now.”

“No!”

Even though she knew Lu Changsheng’s words were a bit of a bluff, Chu Qingyi’s heart still pulsed fiercely.

“What is it then? Does Qingyi think I’m not worthy of you?”

Lu Changsheng said with a somewhat dejected expression: “I know I…”

“No, Fellow Daoist Lu…”

Chu Qingyi bit her lip and whispered: “We can’t go on like this. You are already Dao Companion with Xiao Xiyue.”

“If we continue like this, it’s truly unfair to Xiao Xiyue. Moreover, I was raised by Master from a young age and she placed high hopes on me. If Master knew about me and Xiao Xiyue…”

She knew she couldn’t keep hiding like this, so she decided to be frank with Lu Changsheng.

Lu Changsheng chuckled when Chu Qingyi finally expressed her inner thoughts, holding her slender jade hand: “So, Qingyi, these are your worries.”

“I will handle Xiao Xiyue’s side well. As for Caiyun Zhenren… Lu will definitely gain her approval then.”

“If Qingyi is still worried about the Sect elders and public opinion, then let’s wait a few more years. When Lu breaks through to Nascent Soul and becomes a True Lord, I will come to propose to Qingyi. How about that!”

Lu Changsheng spoke, wanting to stabilize the first step.

Chu Qingyi pursed her lips and remained silent.

She could disregard public opinion, but she could not disregard her Master and the Face of Caiyun Peak.

But if Lu Changsheng broke through to Nascent Soul, this matter, in the eyes of the world, might even become a beautiful story…

“Since that’s the case, why don’t we make an agreement, with a fifty-year limit.”

“If, within fifty years, Lu breaks through to Nascent Soul, then Qingyi, please no longer refuse and persuade Caiyun Zhenren with me. If I don’t achieve Nascent Soul within fifty years, Lu will no longer bother you and will follow your wishes. How about that?”

Lu Changsheng continued to speak.

Although he had just broken through to Core Formation Sixth Layer, there was still a long way to go before Nascent Soul.

But such a time agreement shouldn’t be too long.

Fifty years was just right, neither too long nor too short.

If it was a bit short, Chu Qingyi, being understanding, would probably comprehend.

“Fifty years to Nascent Soul!?”

Chu Qingyi looked at Lu Changsheng with surprised beautiful eyes, then suspected he was trying to coax her again.

After all, this person was clearly gifted, like a Reincarnation of a celestial being, yet he was also very shameless.

But for some reason, she also somewhat looked forward to that day, feeling that Lu Changsheng might truly create a miracle and become the youngest Nascent Soul True Lord in the Jiang Country Cultivation World!

If he became a Nascent Soul True Lord, perhaps Master wouldn’t say anything either…

“Fifty years, even Lu doesn’t have complete confidence, but for Qingyi, I am willing to try.”

Lu Changsheng held Chu Qingyi’s jade hand, saying with a deeply affectionate expression.

“You… don’t force yourself… Cultivation matters should not be rushed for quick success. Everything can be discussed after Nascent Soul.”

Chu Qingyi’s cheeks flushed under his gaze, and she lowered her eyes, saying.

Although she felt that Lu Changsheng was most likely coaxing her, she was also afraid that he might actually pursue some quick method.

If he truly did something like the rumored abandoning of a Golden Core Opportunity for Xiao Xiyue, and abandoned a top-tier Nascent Soul Opportunity for her, then she herself would find it hard to forgive herself.

“Of course.”

Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart that the girls he met were simply more likable the more he interacted with them, and he wanted to bring them home to be the mothers of his children.

“Qingyi, I heard you are going to the front lines soon, and I’m very worried. Your Golden Core should be close to advancing to First Grade, you can’t delay it like this.”

He inhaled the fragrance of Chu Qingyi’s neck, revealing the purpose of this trip.

“Fellow Daoist Lu, don’t…”

Upon hearing this, Chu Qingyi’s eyebrows immediately showed a hint of panic, wanting to push Lu Changsheng away.

But the latter’s Third Stage physique was not to be underestimated.

Even if it was sealed and dormant by the nine treasures jade ruyi at this moment, Chu Qingyi could not break free.

Moreover, facing Lu Changsheng’s intimacy, she didn’t feel a strong sense of resistance in her heart.

“The Great Dao is long, and the Immortal Path is cold and lonely. Lu also wishes to have a few confidants to support each other and seek the Great Dao together. Therefore, Qingyi, your Cultivation is of utmost importance in Husband’s heart and cannot be delayed.”

As an electric sensation ran through her body, Chu Qingyi still wanted to say something, but then felt a hot breath kiss her red lips.

“Mm…”

Feeling the strange sensations coming from her chest, her pale neck arched slightly, tinged with a blush. Then she felt her dress being unfastened, and she quickly struggled: “Don’t… don’t here…”

At this point, Chu Qingyi knew she couldn’t firmly refuse again.

But this was, after all, the grand hall, and there were still people guarding outside, which was truly shameful.

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng, respecting women, carried Chu Qingyi, whose clothes were disheveled, towards the inner side hall.

Because they were in the Immortal Ceremony Hall, Chu Qingyi ultimately had scruples about Xiao Xiyue, and there was also a serious matter to attend to, so the two only had a brief moment of intimacy.

Afterward, Chu Qingyi put on her dress, tidied her disheveled hair, and restored her usual elegant and noble demeanor, saying with a hint of panic in her eyes: “Fellow Daoist Lu, I still have something to do, I’ll go first.”

Lu Changsheng looked at her somewhat flustered and anxious appearance, feeling a bit speechless.

Clearly, they were in his Immortal Cave, but it felt like a secret rendezvous.

However, today’s rendezvous had a unique flavor, much more exciting than their secret meetings in the underground palace.

“When you reach the front lines, don’t try to be strong. Always prioritize your own safety, okay?”

Lu Changsheng stepped forward to help her adjust her collar, tucking a few strands of hair behind her ear, and said gently.

“…”

Although the young man in front of her was not as old as her, he had experienced more.

But feeling his intimate and natural care and concern, a warm current still surged in Chu Qingyi’s heart, and she softly ‘hmm’-ed.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng took out ten High-Grade Talismans from his storage ring and gave them to Chu Qingyi.

In his early years, most of the Talismans in his hand were Low Grade, with not many High-Grade Talismans.

It was only by relying on the System to upgrade Talismans to Third Stage top-tier and collecting many Materials through the Great Dream Immortal City that he accumulated some.

However, Lu Changsheng had always been very generous to his wife.

“I still have some myself, don’t refuse.”

Seeing Chu Qingyi about to say something, Lu Changsheng directly said with a strong attitude.

A moment later, watching Chu Qingyi, dressed in a blue and white dress, depart on a divine rainbow, Lu Changsheng let out a light breath and cast a cleansing spell on himself.

He sniffed, making sure there was no scent of Chu Qingyi on him before returning to Mingyue Residence.

Although Xiao Xiyue didn’t ask much, Lu Changsheng felt that Xiao Xiyue had already noticed something.

So, he simply confessed the general situation between him and Chu Qingyi.

He explained that it was impossible for him not to have any feelings about what happened between him and Senior Sister, but Chu Qingyi, out of concern for the Sect and her Master, kept a clear boundary with him. The two made an agreement to discuss this aspect again after he reached Nascent Soul.

“Our Chang Sheng Zhenren is truly extraordinary. He just completed the Core Formation agreement, and then immediately made a Nascent Soul agreement. Is there also a Soul Transformation agreement?”

Although Xiao Xiyue was usually cold and peerless, like a Fairy from the Moon Palace, unaffected by emotions and external matters.

But when she was with Lu Changsheng, she was like a Fairy who had fallen into the mortal world, possessing all seven emotions and six desires.

“Cough, cough…”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but cough twice, being teased by his beloved.

He thought to himself, in the future, he probably wouldn’t need to make any Soul Transformation agreement with Caiyun Zhenren, right?

Several days later.

Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, like a pair of celestial Dao Companion, walked out of the Qingyun Sect and arrived outside the mountain gate.

At this time, Disciples from various major forces were preparing to board the Qingyun Sect’s spirit ship.

At the foot of the mountain, not far away, many Cultivators who had come to see them off could be seen.

Lu Changsheng also saw Lu Yuanzhong, Bai Yunyang, and others in the crowd.

In this Wilderness War, as long as a Foundation Establishment-level force existed, they all had quotas and had to contribute to the Wilderness War.

“Uncle.”

He stepped forward and greeted Lu Yuanzhong.

Ever since he publicly displayed his Core Formation Cultivation, familiar people like Lu Yuanzhong had become increasingly respectful and polite towards him.

“Greetings, Chang Sheng Zhenren, Xiao Xiyue Immortal Master!”

Many Family forces nearby immediately bowed respectfully to Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, looking at Lu Yuanzhong with eyes full of envy.

In the early years, the Qingzhu Mountain Lu Family was just a small Foundation Establishment Family, inferior to many of their Families.

But relying on the Bihu Mountain Lu Family, they now had four Foundation Establishment Cultivators!

Most importantly, with the Tianfu Lu Family connection, everyone now gave the Qingzhu Mountain Lu Family some Face.

After all, besides Lu Changsheng, the son-in-law, three of the main wives of the Tianfu Lu Family came from Qingzhu Mountain.

For example, the eldest son Lu Ping’an and the current Family Head Lu Qingxuan both possessed the Bloodline of the Qingzhu Mountain Lu Family.

“Hmm.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly and chatted briefly with the elder Lu Yuanzhong, then looked at the Cultivators sent by various Family forces.

These Cultivators ranged from old to young, with a considerable number of elderly Cultivators among them.

These mostly came from small Families, belonging to those with no hope of Cultivation, little life left, burning their last value for the Family.

After all, unlike the Bihu Mountain Lu Family.

Many Families only had one Foundation Establishment Cultivator and dozens of Qi Refining Cultivators.

There weren’t many Qi Refining Middle Stage or Late Stage Cultivators in their homes.

These people Cultivated simple Cultivation Techniques, at most one or two ordinary Magical Artifacts, and had no Puppets, Talismans, or Medicinal Pills with them. Going to the Wilderness was simply a perilous undertaking.

At this moment, as they were about to part, some even had red eyes, shedding tears in farewell.

Baiyun Zhenren naturally saw this situation. After signaling them to board the ship, he spoke: “The Immortal Dao has never been a smooth path; it is a difficult Dao of overcoming obstacles, defying Heaven, introspecting one’s heart, and resisting wind and rain from outside!”

“The Wilderness War presents both danger and Opportunity for you!”

“I’m sure you’ve heard about Liang Country going to war with Yue Country. I tell you, not only Liang Country and Yue Country, but also the more distant Qiyun Country and Sky Net Sect have erupted in war, and Jin Country and Wu Country have also experienced unrest.”

“Our Nanhua Cultivation World is facing a great change unseen in a thousand years! This change will also usher in an incomparably brilliant and splendid great era!”

“Many legendary biographies you read in ancient texts rose during such great eras!”

“Xuanjian Zhenjun also said that in this war, regardless of origin or talent, talents will be recruited without sticking to one pattern. If you strive diligently and perform excellently, perhaps in a few years, you will achieve Foundation Establishment and Core Formation, and it’s not impossible to become a legend in historical records!”

Although Baiyun Zhenren’s words were somewhat grand and empty, coming from a Core Formation True Person, many were still inspired.

After all, thirty years to the east, thirty years to the west; don’t bully the young, don’t bully the middle-aged, don’t bully the old!

Those who embark on the Immortal Path, which one doesn’t hold a little hope, hoping to obtain supreme Opportunity, defy Heaven and change their fate, and become the protagonist in ancient texts and stories.

Just like Lu Changsheng’s growth experience, in the eyes of many Cultivators, it belongs to a legend of an era, enough to be recorded in the Jiang Country Cultivation World history.

So many Bihu Mountain Lu Family Disciples harbor grand ambitions, not without being influenced by their father, Old Ancestor, Lu Changsheng.

“A great change unseen in a thousand years.”

Lu Changsheng thought of the fragmented information he had received; the Seven Demonic Sects might start a war again.

If such a war, sweeping across most of Nanhua, were to occur, it could indeed be called a great change unseen in a thousand years.

But how could such a change be called a splendid great era?

Could it be that the chaos of killing, the rise of Dragons and snakes, and the emergence of countless Prodigies from the wilderness, becoming brilliant new stars, are called a great era?

As all the Cultivators boarded the spirit ships, these spirit ships slowly began to move, quickly sailing towards the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, gradually disappearing into the horizon.

After seeing the spirit ships depart, Lu Changsheng did not remain in the Qingyun Sect.

He signaled Xiao Xiyue to Cultivate her Divine Ability with peace of mind, and that she could contact him at Bihu Mountain if anything came up, then he returned with his Black Water Flood Dragon Dao Soldiers.
