Chapter 683: Caiyun Zhenren is missing, coming!
“Hong Lian, see if there are any resources you need.”
After the two chatted for a while, Lu Changsheng handed Hong Lian his harvest, letting her choose.
Hong Lian possesses a Spiritual Fetus Body, and as long as there are enough resources, she can quickly break through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Under such circumstances, Lu Changsheng naturally hoped that Hong Lian would reach the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.
Moreover, he had the Great Luo Sword Fetus in his hand, which could nurture a Sword Fetus Dao Body.
Currently, Lu Changsheng planned to use the Sword Fetus for his and her child after Hong Lian broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.
“Thank you, Husband~”
Hong Lian’s beautiful eyes sparkled with a crystal-clear and gentle light, she said softly, not being polite with Lu Changsheng, knowing that her top priority was to break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.
“Just pick whatever is useful to you.”
Lu Changsheng said when he saw that Hong Lian had only picked a few items.
“These are enough.”
Hong Lian smiled gently, her vermilion lips slightly raised, like a crescent moon, or like a blooming peach blossom, light, soft, beautiful and charming.
“Aren’t you going to refine a few more magical treasures?”
Lu Changsheng asked.
Besides the Starlight Disk, Platinum Mountain Peak, and Ancient Beast Taming Talisman that he had given her, she had no suitable magical treasures.
“Having my Natal Peach Blossom is enough for now. I’ll consider refining magical treasures when I cultivate to the peak of Core Formation. Refining them now would easily be a waste.”
Hong Lian said softly.
Her situation was similar to Lu Changsheng’s, she didn’t care for ordinary magical treasures.
Spending time and energy to collect materials and refine magical treasures would only lead to them being eliminated after her cultivation improved.
“Okay, just tell me if you need any resources.”
If it were before, Lu Changsheng wouldn’t dare to say this, but now his pockets were full, and he was full of extravagance.
“Okay, thank you, Husband~”
Looking at Lu Changsheng’s extravagant appearance, Hong Lian replied with a smile.
She thought that Lu Changsheng was truly blessed by the heavens.
As a Core Formation cultivator, he went to a Nascent Soul-level secret realm and actually obtained such a rich harvest.
Many Nascent Soul cultivators were probably not as well off as him.
After spending a long time with Hong Lian and instructing her to watch over Qian Zhuyan, Lu Changsheng found Meng Xiaochun and went to see Nangong Mili together.
Because she didn’t get along with Ling Zixiao, Nangong Mili kept to herself, only occasionally coming out to see her son and Meng Xiaochun, and mostly cultivating in seclusion in her cave.
“Mili.”
Lu Changsheng and Meng Xiaochun came to the cave and looked at Nangong Mili, who was wearing a purple gauze dress, with skin as white as snow, a graceful and enchanting figure, and every inch of her body filled with charm, and called out softly.
“Hmph.”
Seeing Lu Changsheng’s affectionate and loving appearance, Nangong Mili became angry.
She had been in Jiang Country with this dog of a man for more than two years, but except for him taking the initiative to find her, she couldn’t even see his shadow at other times.
And every time he looked for her, it was…
“Master…”
After experiencing the master-disciple act, Meng Xiaochun felt a bit closer to Nangong Mili and a bit less respectful.
Knowing that her master had always been duplicitous and always threw a small tantrum when facing her husband, as a disciple, she naturally stepped forward to ease the atmosphere.
“Xiaochun!”
Seeing her disciple throw herself into her arms like a child, hugging her tightly and acting coquettishly, her pretty face rubbing against her full and proud chest, she snorted delicately.
“Mili.”
Seeing the warm scene between the master and disciple, Lu Changsheng went forward and sat down next to them, then leaned in.
Nangong Mili instantly felt her red lips being covered by a warm breath, unable to speak, and could only stare at the dog of a man in front of her with her phoenix eyes.
But under the double attack of her lover and disciple, Nangong Mili’s delicate body softened after a moment.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a slight chill on her chest, and a warm, soft, and fragrant sensation came over her, causing her entire body to be struck by lightning, her delicate body trembling frantically, wanting to shout.
But her red lips were covered by Lu Changsheng, who was domineeringly plundering her fragrant sweetness, and she couldn’t speak at all.
“Master~ Mother~”
Meng Xiaochun and Nangong Mili had a very close relationship. In their early years, when they went on missions together, they called each other mother and daughter.
Now, in the boudoir, there were not so many taboos, and she called out in a delicate voice.
“Xiaochun, this is really too outrageous…”
Nangong Mili’s long and narrow phoenix eyes, hazy with mist, were full of shame and anger, wanting to struggle, but facing Lu Changsheng’s strong and powerful body, she couldn’t do it, and could only let the two attack her.
“Mili, so enchanting.”
Lu Changsheng felt the beauty’s trembling body, and a burst of joy rose in his heart. He leaned close to her slightly flushed earlobe and comforted her gently.
“Xiaochun…”
After a while, Lu Changsheng looked at the beautiful woman in his arms, soft and weak, her body trembling, patted Meng Xiaochun’s plump buttocks, and signaled her to serve her master well.
A little later, Nangong Mili frowned slightly, her pearly teeth gently biting her lower lip.
Her misty phoenix eyes were filled with a gentle and radiant light, like a pool of spring water wrinkled by the spring breeze, rippling with waves, filled with a hazy curtain, and all the grievances in her heart disappeared.
Night fell, and the lights came on.
It was unknown how long it had been, but the movement in the ancient cave in the City Lord’s Mansion gradually subsided.
Nangong Mili, a late-stage Core Formation cultivator, was graceful and enchanting, with a curvy figure, seemingly slender but full and moving, her delicate body limp like mud.
Under her willow eyebrows, which resembled distant green mountains, her long and narrow phoenix eyes seemed to be immersed in endless charming spring, and her sparkling eyes were captivating.
“You’re pressing on my hair!”
Nangong Mili recovered her breath and scolded Lu Changsheng coldly, but her voice was indescribably moving, without the slightest deterrence.
Although the grievances in her heart had dissipated, she felt that this dog of a man thought he had her figured out, and came up with this trick whenever something happened.
In her words, she glared unhappily at her disciple Meng Xiaochun, whose cheeks were flushed and slightly drunk.
She thought that this disciple was increasingly turning her elbow outward.
It was one thing that she didn’t fight against Ling Zixiao with her master, but she even teased herself with this dog of a man all day long…
“Master…”
Meng Xiaochun had been with Nangong Mili for many years, so she naturally knew her master’s temperament, and immediately looked like a good girl admitting her mistake.
“Mili.”
Lu Changsheng coaxed Nangong Mili softly, saying that he really had things to be busy with during this time, and that after the Immortal City Whale Hunting Banquet in a year, he would accompany her properly and send her back to the Five Poisons Sect.
His identity as Yangming Zhenren had caused such a big commotion in the 【瀚沙 幻域】, and he and Nether Fiend True Monarch could be said to be irreconcilable.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng also needed to inform A Youduo to prevent the old dog Nether Fiend from secretly causing trouble again, using the Five Poisons Sect as a breakthrough point.
“This is a gift that your husband has prepared for you. See if you like it.”
Lu Changsheng had long known Nangong Mili’s temperament. Under normal circumstances, as long as it wasn’t too much, he was willing to tolerate it and treat it as marital fun, handing the gift he had prepared in advance to her.
Seeing Lu Changsheng speak kindly and prepare a gift for her, Nangong Mili’s white and snowy, enchanting face softened a bit.
“My Xiaochun also has one.”
Lu Changsheng saw Meng Xiaochun next to her, her beautiful eyes holding a bit of hope, and said softly, knowing that what Meng Xiaochun cared about was not the gift, but his attitude.
“Thank you, Husband.”
Meng Xiaochun immediately rejoiced and smiled charmingly.
“Hmph!”
For some reason, seeing that Meng Xiaochun also had a share, and it wasn’t exclusive to her, Nangong Mili snorted coldly again.
However, seeing the gift in the brocade box, which was obviously carefully prepared for her, Nangong Mili felt a bit of joy in her heart.
Lu Changsheng possessed a Nascent Soul-level Grand One Divine Soul, which could capture some of Nangong Mili’s divine soul fluctuations and roughly understand her emotions.
Seeing her emotions constantly fluctuating, sometimes happy and sometimes sad, he was speechless in his heart, and thought that women were really fickle.
However, a woman who is happy for you and sad for you, to be clear, has truly moved her heart.
After comforting Nangong Mili, Lu Changsheng had time to care about his children.
Coming to the backyard, seeing his daughters Lu Linghe, Lu Baixi, Lu Mengchan, Lu Minghuang and Lu Ping’an practicing boxing together, Lu Changsheng was very gratified.
These children were sensible and worry-free.
“Dad!”
“Daddy! Daddy!”
The children shouted when they saw Lu Changsheng.
“Mm.”
Lu Changsheng nodded with a smile, sat down to the side, taught and guided his children in their cultivation, and then handed each of them a gift.
Although Lu Ping’an was so old, but the atmosphere was there, Lu Changsheng also gave him a share, just to show his intention.
“Thank you, Dad!”
Lu Linghe looked at her gift, glanced at it a few times, and asked, “Daddy, have you finished using this Buddhist bead?”
Although she could see that this Buddhist bead was somewhat different from the previous Buddha Bone Relic, she couldn’t distinguish it in detail.
“This is a new Buddhist bead that Daddy obtained. Keep it safe and don’t let others see it, understand?”
Lu Changsheng said softly to his daughter.
Although his daughter didn’t go out much, this relic was precious, so he still had to tell her.
“Daddy, don’t worry.”
Lu Linghe nodded vigorously, then took out the previous Vajra Relic from her purse and said, “Daddy, do you still need this Buddhist bead?”
“Since this has been given to Xiao He, it naturally belongs to Xiao He. You can keep it together.”
Lu Changsheng pinched her cheek and said with a smile, “You can hold two Buddhist beads together to cultivate in the future.”
“If you feel uncomfortable, stop immediately and tell Daddy, understand?”
“Daddy, I know.”
Lu Linghe replied adorably.
Afterward, Lu Changsheng instructed his daughter, Lu Baixi, that if she felt any discomfort during her cultivation with the 【Blood Transformation Stone】, she should stop immediately and tell him.
As he spoke, he released the Golden-Winged Roc from the Qiankun Shadow Restraint Belt.
“Uncle Dajin!”
Lu Baixi was quite fond of the Golden Roc, which possessed the bloodline of a true spirit, and immediately called out in a crisp voice upon seeing it.
“Golden Roc, teach Xiaoxi how to cultivate when you have time.”
Lu Changsheng sized up the Golden-Winged Roc, noticing that its physical condition had recovered significantly, filled with a surge of vigorous energy, and it would soon be fully restored.
“? ? ?”
The Golden-Winged Roc was stunned, then turned its head to look at Lu Baixi’s exquisite and delicate face, and after a moment of silence, said: “Yes, Master.”
Although it felt closer to Lu Baixi, who possessed the bloodline of a true spirit, it didn’t mean it enjoyed taking care of children.
Moreover, the breakthroughs and growth of demon beasts mostly involved slumber.
It was only half a step away from advancing to the third-tier peak, and after swallowing the tattered Nascent Soul spirit body of the purple-robed old man, its body was now filled with vigorous energy, and its flesh and bones seemed to be evolving and cleansed at all times, only wanting to have a good sleep.
“You don’t have to watch her all the time. Rest well when you need to. Help Xiaoxi with her problems when you have time.”
Lu Changsheng saw the Golden Roc’s current situation, suitable for a slumbering advancement, and spoke again.
After caring for Lu Mengchan and Lu Minghuang, Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Pingan and said, “Pingan, I plan to return to Bihu Mountain. You should come back with me.”
Although he wanted his son to be in charge of the Great Dream Immortal City, there was no rush now.
Besides, his son had been away from home for so many years, and it was time for him to go back and take a look and settle his own affairs.
“Yes, Father.”
Lu Pingan nodded in response.
Immediately, Lu Changsheng went to see his other children in the Great Dream Immortal City, told Ling Zixiao about Qian Zhuyan’s matter, and then drove his遁光, taking Lu Pingan back to Bihu Mountain himself.
Since the 【Vast Sand Illusionary Domain】 incident had not yet spread, Bihu Mountain had not received relevant information, so Lu Miaoyun, Lu Miaoge, and others did not ask much when they saw Lu Changsheng and Lu Pingan returning.
They assumed that Lu Changsheng had sent Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingzhu back to Yue Country, and the remaining time was spent looking for Lu Pingan.
However, upon learning that Lu Pingan had broken through to the Core Formation stage, the women exclaimed in surprise.
“There’s no need to rush to spread this news for the time being.”
Lu Changsheng said.
Although holding a Core Formation ceremony for Lu Pingan, showcasing a grand occasion of four Core Formation cultivators in one family and three Core Formation cultivators between father and sons, would be enough to further enhance the reputation of the Tianfu Lu family.
But if this ceremony was held, the Azure Cloud Sect would probably not be able to sit still.
Although he was not afraid of the Azure Cloud Sect, he was still somewhat wary of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the overlord of Jiang Country.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng didn’t want to make the situation between the two families too stiff, making Xiao Xiyue and Chu Qingyi feel embarrassed.
“However, when you encounter troublesome matters, you should still take action. There is no need to hide your abilities too much.”
Lu Changsheng continued to say to his son Lu Pingan, worried that he would deliberately suppress his strength to avoid causing trouble for the family.
“Father, I understand.”
Lu Pingan grinned.
After chatting with his wives, Lu Changsheng put the 【Sun Moon Two Instruments Profound Light Mirror】 back into the Sumeru Cave Heaven, checked on the situation of the Profound Wood Vine, and then spent his days accompanying his wives and concubines, teaching and guiding his children.
Several days later, after finishing his work at Bihu Mountain, Lu Changsheng went to the Azure Cloud Sect.
One reason was to see Xiao Xiyue and Chu Qingyi.
The other reason was that Xiao Xiyue had previously sent a message to Bihu Mountain, stating that the Azure Cloud Sect Master wanted to see him.
“Greetings, Real Person Changsheng!”
“Greetings, Elder Lu!”
When Lu Changsheng arrived at the Azure Cloud Sect, the disciples he met along the way were filled with respect, admiration, and adoration in their eyes, bowing and saluting.
The reason for this was that, apart from Lu Qingshan returning home, further enhancing the reputation of the Tianfu Lu family, the main reason was the beast tide in the Great Dream Swamp a year and a half ago.
The Great Dream City Lord and his wife bombarded and killed the fourth-tier demon king, and Lu Changsheng, as the deputy city lord, also suppressed the third-tier demon king with Lu Miaoge in this battle, which was also talked about by many people, and their status and position rose accordingly.
“Mm.”
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly and quickly arrived at the Azure Cloud Sect’s main hall to pay his respects to the Azure Cloud Sect Master.
“Real Person Changsheng, please sit down and rest for a while. I will inform the Sect Master.”
The receiving disciple of the Sect Master respectfully invited Lu Changsheng to the side hall and offered tea.
Before long, a series of footsteps sounded.
A slender Azure Cloud Taoist robe-clad Azure Cloud Sect Master with a calm demeanor entered the hall, cupping his hands and saying: “Real Person Changsheng, I have kept you waiting.”
“Greetings, Sect Master.”
Lu Changsheng cupped his hands in return, asking what the matter was.
“It’s nothing major. I just heard about the Great Dream Immortal City bombarding and killing the fourth-tier demon king, and I wanted to ask Fellow Daoist to understand some details.”
The Azure Cloud Sect Master exchanged a few pleasantries and went straight to the point.
“Sect Master is too kind. Regarding the City Lord’s bombardment and killing of the fourth-tier demon king, even I was extremely shocked.”
Lu Changsheng already knew what the Azure Cloud Sect Master wanted to know, and said with a face full of emotion.
“Fellow Daoist previously said that the Great Dream City Lord would leave the Immortal City in the future?”
The Azure Cloud Sect Master continued to inquire, indirectly probing Lu Changsheng’s relationship with the Great Dream Immortal City.
After all, according to rumors, the combined cultivation technique of Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge was somewhat similar to the Great Dream City Lord’s magic weapon.
And it was rumored that the Great Dream City Lord and his wife were also proficient in combined cultivation techniques.
“Regarding this aspect, it is what I said to the Sect Master before, but this time, after hunting the fourth-tier demon king, the City Lord urged me to draw fourth-tier talismans as soon as possible, which shows that he is relatively eager in this regard.”
Lu Changsheng said with a serious face.
“Draw fourth-tier talismans as soon as possible…”
If the Great Dream City Lord needed fourth-tier talismans before, the Azure Cloud Sect Master could still understand.
But the other party already had the means to bombard and kill the fourth-tier demon king, so what did he need fourth-tier talismans for?
However, thinking that the Great Dream City Lord had not appeared for so long after bombarding and killing the fourth-tier demon king, it was estimated that the price was very high, which was understandable.
He continued to ask Lu Changsheng, wanting to obtain some information.
But Lu Changsheng’s replies were ambiguous, leaving the Azure Cloud Sect Master to guess for himself.
After all, some things were not beautiful if said too bluntly.
“Thank you for your hard work, Real Person Changsheng.”
A quarter of an hour later, the Azure Cloud Sect Master sent Lu Changsheng out of the hall, not obtaining much useful information.
The main aspect of the inheritance of the technique belonged to the privacy of the cultivator, and he was not good at asking too much.
Especially since this inheritance of the technique also involved the mysterious Great Dream City Lord.
“It seems that this Azure Cloud Sect Master attaches more importance to the Great Dream Immortal City than I imagined.”
After walking out of the Azure Cloud Hall, Lu Changsheng looked at the Azure Cloud Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, which flowed with the luster of colored glaze, and thought to himself.
But thinking about it, it was normal.
Jiang Country had another force that could bombard and kill the fourth-tier demon king, a cultivator. How could the Azure Cloud Sect, one of the four great immortal sects of Jiang Country, not attach importance to it?
“I just don’t know what the Heavenly Sword Sect’s attitude is?”
Compared to the Azure Cloud Sect, the Heavenly Sword Sect’s attitude was the most important.
Lu Changsheng didn’t think much, and went straight to Caiyun Peak, Mingyue Residence.
In the quaint cave dwelling, Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue confided their longing for each other.
Afterward!
“Xiyue, did Real Person Caiyun go to the 【Vast Sand Illusionary Domain】?”
Lu Changsheng hugged Xiao Xiyue’s fairy jade body, gently stroking a few strands of her green silk that stuck to her beautiful face, suddenly thought of something, and asked.
Although he did not see Yun Wanchang in the Vast Sand Illusionary Domain.
But he saw True Monarch Xuanjian leading several Core Formation cultivators, so he thought of Yun Wanchang.
The other party had been out searching for Nascent Soul opportunities for many years, and the Vast Sand Illusionary Domain was a Nascent Soul-level secret realm, so there was a high probability of going there.
“Probably not. Before, the Sect Master and the Supreme Elder tried to contact Master, but…”
Xiao Xiyue’s cloud temples were messy, no longer the usual cold fairy appearance, lightly pursing her red lips, her beautiful eyes showing a few traces of worry.
“Something happened to Real Person Caiyun! ?”
Lu Changsheng’s heart suddenly paused.
“Master’s soul lamp is currently fine, but… the sect had contacted Master many years ago, but there has been no news in response.”
Xiao Xiyue’s beautiful eyes, like rugged clear springs, glanced at Lu Changsheng, and said softly, her emotions somewhat low.
For some reason, hearing that Yun Wanchang had no news and might have encountered danger, Lu Changsheng felt a burst of worry and heaviness in his heart.
However, seeing the worry on Xiao Xiyue’s face, he put his arm around the other party’s fragrant shoulders and comforted her softly: “It’s okay, Real Person Caiyun is blessed by heaven, maybe she obtained a Nascent Soul opportunity and is in seclusion to impact the Nascent Soul, so she didn’t respond.”
“Mm.”
Xiao Xiyue nestled quietly in Lu Changsheng’s arms, not speaking, but her beautiful eyes showed a look of worry.
After all, the sect first contacted Master eighteen years ago.
Not only had there been no news, but three years ago, the Supreme Elder also asked True Monarch Xuanjian to divination and calculate Master’s whereabouts, but they did not obtain any relevant news.
However, these involved the sect’s secrets, and she could not reveal them to Lu Changsheng.
Just as Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue were reminiscing, outside Bihu Mountain, a shadowy figure wearing a dark mask and a black wide cloak, as if integrated into the shadows, looked at the Bihu Mountain in front of him, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and murmured in his mouth.
“This is the Lu family of Bihu Mountain?”
