Starting From a Son in Law to Build a Long Lasting Family
Chapter 905: Instruct and leave!
“Rest assured, Nangong Yaoyao is doing very well. Her cultivation has already broken through to Core Formation Sixth Layer. It seems she is very much favored by her Master.”
Lu Changsheng, having the System, knew a little about his daughter Nangong Yaoyao’s situation; she had broken through to Core Formation Sixth Layer not long ago.
Although this cultivation speed couldn’t compare to Lu Quanzhen, it could definitely be described as rapid progress.
However, thinking of the Blood Sea Tribulation, his daughter Nangong Yaoyao’s Immortal Lotus Sect would also experience major events, and he wondered if there would be any danger.
“Core Formation Sixth Layer? Really?”
Nangong Mili’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise, somewhat disbelieving.
After all, how old was her daughter? How could she Cultivate so quickly?
Even if she joined the Immortal Lotus Sect and had White Lotus True Monarch, a Nascent Soul Master, it shouldn’t be this astonishing, right?
Unless her daughter had other Opportunities or was being groomed as a Saintess candidate.
“Of course. You should know that Husband possesses a Divine Ability that allows me to vaguely sense Nangong Yaoyao and their situations through a Bloodline medium.”
Lu Changsheng embraced Nangong Mili’s graceful and charming body, speaking with a faint smile.
“Although the Immortal Lotus Sect claims to save all sentient beings, helping people escape suffering and enjoy eternal peace, their Cultivation Technique is extremely Evil Path. Nangong Yaoyao’s cultivation is increasing so quickly; will there be hidden dangers?”
Nangong Mili worried about other things.
Coming from the Five Poison Sect, she naturally didn’t believe in true goodness and beauty.
She knew that the Demonic Path had many methods to quickly increase cultivation and Breakthrough Realms.
These methods all came with a price, and once they reached a certain point, hidden dangers would emerge.
Moreover, although the Immortal Lotus Sect had the word “Immortal” in its name, it was extremely unorthodox and was a true top-tier Demonic Sect.
White Lotus True Monarch taking her daughter as a Disciple, besides cherishing talent, surely had other intentions, such as cultivating a direct descendant or having a Disciple handle trivial matters.
“Not only is the Northern Region turbulent, with many countries erupting in war, but the Southern Wasteland Central Domain has also been like this in recent years, showing tendencies towards a major war. Therefore, the top forces in the Southern Wasteland are all striving to Cultivate their outstanding young talents.”
Lu Changsheng said reassuringly.
Despite this, he also felt that his daughter Nangong Yaoyao’s cultivation speed was a bit too fast, and could only offer this explanation.
“You should worry less about the Yinming Ghost Sect and Minghuang’s matters from now on, and focus your energy on cultivation, reaching Core Formation Peak as soon as possible.”
“Husband’s pacification of the Liang Country in this war has yielded many Nascent Soul resources, which can assist you in breaking through to Nascent Soul at that time.”
Lu Changsheng said to Nangong Mili.
Although Nangong Mili received strong cultivation and abundant resources from the Five Poison Sect after he subdued A Youduo, her cultivation speed was only average; she had only broken through to Core Formation Ninth Layer a while ago.
Thirty-four years, from Core Formation Seventh Layer to Core Formation Ninth Layer, was actually very fast.
It was a speed unimaginable to most Core Formation cultivators.
But in Lu Changsheng’s view, it was merely average, even too slow.
“Nascent Soul!?”
Although Nangong Mili had fantasized about breaking through to Nascent Soul one day, with Lu Changsheng’s help, her Fourth Grade True Core had advanced to Supreme Golden Core.
But for her, Nascent Soul was still too distant, out of reach.
Yet now, Lu Changsheng actually promised her a future Nascent Soul!
After so many years of being together, she knew that although this scoundrel was a philanderer and sweet-talked women, rarely speaking the truth.
However, when it came to money and resources, he was incredibly generous, never stingy, and never made empty promises or drew false hopes.
Whether it was the power and resources she obtained from the Five Poison Sect, or the cultivation resources for her son Lu Minghuang, Disciple Meng Xiaochun, and grand-Disciple Lu Mengchan, they were all top-tier.
As Lu Changsheng’s prominence grew, she often thought that her daughter Nangong Yaoyao didn’t need to join the Immortal Lotus Sect.
“Besides the Lightning Tribulation, Nascent Soul also has the Heart Demon Tribulation, which is dangerously unpredictable. If you have time, you can consult A Youduo more.”
Lu Changsheng continued.
He now had Nascent Soul resources.
But even he wasn’t confident in helping others safely pass the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation; they needed to rely on themselves.
As for the demonic subduing calamity eradication pill, which helps overcome Heart Demons, setting aside the difficulty of refining it.
The Materials alone were not something that could be collected and gathered in a short time.
“Mmm~” Nangong Mili gently raised her head, her beautiful eyes filled with tenderness as she looked at Lu Changsheng, her heart full of joy.
Ninety-nine percent of Core Formation cultivators in the Cultivation World could not refuse the temptation of Nascent Soul.
“Come, Husband will assist you in your cultivation!”
Seeing the beautiful woman’s eyes swirling with charm, her appearance intoxicating, Lu Changsheng felt a surge of heat in his heart and cupped her enchanting and beautiful face.
Now, with Lu Changsheng having broken through to Nascent Soul, Dual Cultivation with his wives and concubines, through the feedback from a higher Realm, provided immense cultivation benefits to the female party.
As for the depletion of his essence from this kind of Dual Cultivation.
With the Chaos Body, Middle Stage Fourth Order Body Refining, and Kidney Divine Treasure, as long as it wasn’t continuous cultivation for several months, there wouldn’t be too much impact.
Afterwards!
Afterwards!
Afterwards!
The next day, Lu Changsheng, who had expended considerable physical strength, magic power, and essence, woke up feeling refreshed.
Nangong Mili, who had received the Yin and Yang Origin essence, was still asleep.
However, her complexion was rosy, a faint smile of contentment played on her lips, and she showed no signs of fatigue.
Looking at the messy Immortal Cave, and the slight redness and blue bruises on the beautiful woman’s skin, Lu Changsheng felt pity in his heart and massaged her to treat her.
Nangong Mili, a Core Formation cultivator, immediately woke up and opened her beautiful eyes, thinking Lu Changsheng wanted to continue.
“Husband, this concubine truly cannot continue…”
Her face was pleading, pitiful, indicating that she couldn’t go on and wanted to rest, to continue with Xiao Chan in a few days.
Although she possessed Core Formation Ninth Layer cultivation, Lu Changsheng’s physique was simply too powerful, more than she alone could bear.
After several rounds of torment last night, she was already falling apart.
If not for Lu Changsheng’s gentle comfort and his help in treating her through the Treasure Cauldron Medicine King Scripture, how could she have endured it?
But even so, she dared not monopolize him anymore; she had to call upon her Disciple Meng Xiaochun to share the burden.
“What are you thinking?”
Lu Changsheng slapped her somewhat swollen buttocks.
Although he greatly enjoyed being with Nangong Mili, his mind wasn’t solely preoccupied with such matters.
His son was about to leave with Qu Changge for the Tianmo Sect in a few days, and his wife Qu Zhenzhen was also in the Yinming Ghost Sect. How could he be overly indulged in matters of men and women?
Last night’s ‘discipline’ of Nangong Mili was merely to hope she would be more well-behaved going forward.
After treating Nangong Mili’s external skin injuries, Lu Changsheng walked out of the Immortal Cave with her to find Qu Zhenzhen.
Nangong Mili was very possessive and somewhat prone to jealousy, and she didn’t get along well with Lu Changsheng’s other women.
This included Iina, Yin Yu’e, and even her own Sect Master.
But after Lu Changsheng’s ‘discipline’ last night, knowing that Qu Zhenzhen not only had a son, Lu Quanzhen, but also a Nascent Soul brother from the Southern Wasteland Central Domain, her attitude immediately improved by another level.
Of course, the main reason was also that Qu Zhenzhen was not aggressive, not competitive, unlike Ling Zixiao, Iina, Yin Yu’e, and others.
She even felt that she could befriend Qu Zhenzhen, form an alliance, and thus integrate into the Lu Family.
“Quanzhen, I heard your Father say that you will be going to the Central Domain with your maternal uncle soon.”
At noon, Nangong Mili and Lu Changsheng came to see Lu Quanzhen, treating him very politely, without any elder’s airs.
“Mmm.” Lu Quanzhen nodded, guessing that his Father had told her about his departure.
Seeing Nangong Mili’s polite demeanor, Lu Changsheng spoke, “Quanzhen, do you remember Nangong Yaoyao? Your Aunt Nangong’s daughter, Nangong Yaoyao.”
“Of course, I remember.”
Lu Quanzhen said, remembering this half-sister.
In the past, when he was being hunted by Ghost Devil True Person, Nangong Yaoyao and Meng Xiaochun had even attacked him.
If he hadn’t cultivated the Myriad Poison True Body, making him immune to all poisons, and possessed the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm, he might have fallen into their hands.
However, at that time, under the sneak attack of the Six-Winged Golden Silkworm, if Nangong Yaoyao hadn’t had the Magic Treasure given by Nangong Mili to protect her, she would have nearly died by his hand.
Through the intelligence from the Yinming Ghost Sect, he knew that this sister had been taken as a Disciple by a Nascent Soul True Lord and taken away to Cultivate.
“Nangong Yaoyao was valued by White Lotus True Monarch of the Immortal Lotus Sect and taken as a Disciple. She is currently cultivating in the Immortal Lotus Sect.”
“When you go to the Central Domain this time, if you have a chance to see Nangong Yaoyao, give her these letters.”
Lu Changsheng said, then looked at Nangong Mili.
The latter immediately handed over the prepared tokens, Jade Slip, and a Storage Pouch to Lu Quanzhen, saying, “Quanzhen, I trouble you.”
“Nangong Yaoyao was very remorseful about attacking you after she knew you were her brother, but at that time, she had to go to the Immortal Lotus Sect with White Lotus True Monarch, so she didn’t have time to apologize to you in person. I hope you don’t hold a grudge.”
Nangong Mili continued, lowering her posture.
A mother’s love knows no bounds.
Although Nangong Mili was vicious and ruthless towards others, her love for her daughter Nangong Yaoyao was genuine.
Even after so many years, compared to her son Lu Minghuang, she still preferred her daughter Nangong Yaoyao.
“Aunt is too polite. I didn’t take what happened back then to heart, and besides, Aunt, you saved my life.”
Lu Quanzhen said.
Although he always sought revenge.
But Nangong Yaoyao was his half-sister, and Meng Xiaochun was his Father’s wife. In such circumstances, he naturally wouldn’t hold a grudge over these matters anymore.
Moreover, when he was in danger, Nangong Mili arrived in time and held back Zhentian Old Devil, saving his life, which he had always remembered.
In this situation, he naturally wouldn’t hold a grudge over the minor incidents from back then or have any opinion of this sister.
“That’s good. Nangong Yaoyao knows you are her brother. As long as you show the token and reveal your identity, Nangong Yaoyao will surely believe you, and then you two can interact and cooperate more.”
Nangong Mili continued, not feeling that her daughter’s status was superior because she had joined the Immortal Lotus Sect and been taken as a Disciple by White Lotus True Monarch, thus looking down on Lu Quanzhen.
Through Lu Quanzhen’s previous battle achievements displayed in the Yinming Ghost Sect, instantly killing Ghost Shadow True Person, and single-handedly contending against Yinming Sect Leader, Yin Ming Ghost King, and Ghost Bat True Person, three great Core Formation cultivators, she knew that the latter’s combat power was extraordinary.
Even if he went to the Southern Wasteland Central Domain, he would be considered a Prodigy!
In this situation, it would definitely be a good thing for her daughter to befriend Lu Quanzhen and interact more.
What’s more, the other party also had a Nascent Soul elder.
“Aunt, rest assured.”
Although Lu Quanzhen had no feelings for this half-sister, she was still his Father’s daughter after all.
His Father had told Nangong Mili about this and asked her to come find him. If he met her, he would certainly take care of her somewhat.
However, the prerequisite was that the other party believed him and was friendly.
“Rest assured, Quanzhen knows all this.”
Lu Changsheng was very confident in his son, and patted Nangong Mili’s soft hand.
“Mmm.”
Through their interactions during these days, Nangong Mili knew that Lu Quanzhen’s personality was somewhat cold and that he disliked speaking much on ordinary days, so she didn’t nag any further.
“Mili, I have some things to tell Quanzhen privately.”
Lu Changsheng continued to speak to Nangong Mili.
Upon hearing this, Nangong Mili showed no strong emotions. Knowing that Lu Changsheng still had important matters to discuss with Lu Quanzhen, she exited the main hall, giving the Father and son some space.
“Quanzhen, if you meet Nangong Yaoyao and get along with her, then interact more and try to help her. If you don’t get along, there’s no need to force it.”
Although Lu Changsheng had an excellent impression of this daughter whom he had only briefly spent time with,
he knew that her true personality was not like that; she merely understood people’s hearts and acted in a pleasing manner.
Moreover, his daughter had joined the Immortal Lotus Sect many years ago, and he wasn’t sure of her current situation. Naturally, he wouldn’t overly inconvenience his son for his daughter’s sake.
“Father, rest assured,” Lu Quanzhen said, knowing his Father’s attitude towards his children. He would naturally help if he could.
“Besides Nangong Yaoyao’s matter, after you arrive at the Tianmo Sect, if possible, help your Father gather information about Qingluan True Monarch.”
Lu Changsheng continued to instruct his son.
After they parted ways in the Han Sha Illusion Domain, Qingluan True Monarch had been completely out of contact.
According to his divination, she was no longer in the Southern Wilderness Northern Region.
Therefore, Lu Changsheng speculated that she might have encountered danger and fled to the Southern Wasteland Central Domain or other regions.
After his son went to the Tianmo Sect, he might be able to obtain news of Qingluan True Monarch by inquiring through the Tianmo Sect’s intelligence channels.
“Qingluan True Monarch?” Lu Quanzhen’s heart paused slightly, secretly thinking, ‘Could Father also have a close relationship with Qingluan True Monarch?’
Although, based on the rumors from the Han Sha Illusion Domain, it was highly possible.
But in his youth, he had heard the legendary stories of Qingluan Immortal Master, and he still held a certain admiration for the former number one Loose Cultivator of Jiang Country.
It was hard to imagine how a female True Monarch, who, as a mere Loose Cultivator, eventually surpassed all others and broke through to Nascent Soul, could have gotten together with his Father.
“Yes, if you find any news of Qingluan True Monarch, you can give her this Jade Slip if you have the chance, or crush this Jade Talisman.”
Lu Changsheng handed his son a prepared Jade Slip and a sensing Jade Talisman.
Jiang Country and the Central Domain were far apart, so ordinary communication Talismans couldn’t reach. They could only rely on sensing Talismans for hints and messages.
“Besides Qingluan True Monarch, you can also pay attention to a young girl named Mu Que. She possesses the Phoenix Bloodline…”
Lu Changsheng continued, lightly flicking his finger, and a water mirror appeared, reflecting a delicate-looking young girl who bore a seventy percent resemblance to Qingluan True Monarch.
It was his and Qingluan True Monarch’s daughter, Mu Que.
Although Lu Changsheng had never met this daughter,
he could see her attribute information and appearance through the System Family tree.
Lu Quanzhen looked at the young girl’s eyebrows, which bore some resemblance to Qingluan True Monarch’s, and felt a surge of surprise.
Father and Qingluan True Monarch already had a child?
He couldn’t help but ask, “Father, is she…”
“She is your Father’s and Qingluan True Monarch’s daughter, and also your younger sister.”
“After Qingluan True Monarch left the Han Sha Illusion Domain, she must have encountered danger, which led to her separation from Mu Que. If you have the chance, please help your Father inquire about her whereabouts.”
Lu Changsheng sighed, not holding much hope for this matter.
After all, the Southern Wasteland Central Domain was vast.
Even if his son went to the Tianmo Sect and could inquire through their channels, finding a young girl who had only just broken through to Foundation Establishment would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Unless his daughter, Mu Que, could display her talent and become known through her Phoenix Bloodline.
Moreover, it was still unknown whether his daughter and Qingluan True Monarch were even in the Central Domain.
Lu Quanzhen: “…”
With his guess confirmed, Lu Quanzhen felt speechless, secretly thinking that his Father truly had extensive connections.
“Please rest assured, Father.”
He took the Jade Slip and sensing Talisman his Father handed him, then continued to look at him.
He wanted to know if there were any other aunts, or younger siblings out there.
“???”
Lu Changsheng wanted to question his son about that look, but he still said seriously, “There are no other matters.”
“Although your maternal uncle will be with you on this trip to the Tianmo Sect, it still depends on your own performance.”
As he spoke, he lightly raised his hand, and Spirit Treasures, Nascent Soul Spirit Items, Medicinal Pills, and Talismans appeared one by one.
“Take these for emergencies. There’s no need to ask your maternal uncle for everything.”
Although his cheap brother-in-law was very generous to his son, Old Ancestor Lu was not someone who would take advantage entirely. He was not stingy with his son.
He handed over many of the gains from the Liang Yue War, including several Spirit Treasures, Nascent Soul Spirit Items, and Medicinal Pills, ensuring his son wouldn’t lose at the starting line.
He could also share some with his daughter, Nangong Yaoyao, when the time came.
“Father, my maternal uncle already gave me the Storage Rings of Wugu Old Demon and Shihai True Lord. I am not lacking in Spirit Treasures and Nascent Soul resources now. Please give these to Eldest Brother and others in the Lu Family…”
Lu Quanzhen looked at the Spirit Treasures and piles of Heaven And Earth Treasures before him, feeling his Father’s care, but shook his head.
Earlier, after eliminating Ming Sha True Lord, his Father had allowed him to choose and manage the Yinming Ghost Sect’s treasury.
So he was not lacking in Magic Treasures at all.
As for Spirit Treasures,
with his current cultivation and strength, he could only barely activate them.
His current Spirit Treasures were already sufficient; more would only be a burden.
“…” Lu Changsheng thought to himself that he had still underestimated his cheap brother-in-law’s doting on his son.
However, precisely because of this, he felt at ease entrusting his son to Qu Changge, whom he had only recently met.
“In that case, take these Medicinal Pills and Talismans.”
Lu Changsheng did not force him, knowing that his son’s current wealth was not inferior to many Nascent Soul True Lords.
When his resources ran out, perhaps he would have time to visit him and Nangong Yaoyao in the Central Domain.
However, at this moment, his heart paused, and a snow-white pellet flew out from the top of his head, transforming into a Sanbao Avatar.
“Quanzhen, what do you think of this Avatar?” Lu Changsheng asked with a smile, preparing to give the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl to his son for protection.
At this stage, Spirit Treasures actually had limited use for his son, Lu Quanzhen, as he could hardly unleash their power.
But the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl, a fourth-tier exotic treasure, had self-evident effects and benefits.
After refining it, one only needed to infuse it with essence blood and nourish it with vital Qi and spirit, to evolve an Avatar with the same form, spirit, and aura as oneself.
This Avatar was not only difficult to distinguish from the real body, but it could also use Divine Abilities and possess the battle power of the main body!
For Lu Quanzhen, who cultivated both body and dharma and possessed formidable combat power, it was simply like adding wings to a tiger!
He could perfectly utilize the effects of this exotic treasure, just as he had done in the past.
“This is an Avatar Treasure?” Lu Quanzhen had seen the Yin Yang Dao Body before and guessed that his Father had cultivated an external Avatar Divine Ability.
Upon seeing the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl at this moment, he immediately recognized it as a rare and precious Avatar Treasure.
Such Avatar Treasures were extremely rare, their value no less than that of Spirit Treasures.
However, he immediately noticed something amiss.
The Spiritual Pressure aura of this Avatar was only at Core Formation, not at the Nascent Soul level, unlike the Yin Yang Dao Body he had seen before.
“Aside from its Spiritual Pressure aura, this Avatar is almost identical to you, Father, making it difficult to distinguish.”
Lu Quanzhen said.
“This treasure is called the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl…”
Lu Changsheng introduced this exotic treasure to his son.
He was quite fond of the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl.
Over the years, its help to him was no less than that of the xuan yuan pearl in his early years.
However, the Avatar evolved by the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl could only reach a maximum of third-tier Peak.
Now that he had broken through to Nascent Soul, its help to him was already minimal.
Its greatest effect was to be used to evolve “Chang Sheng Zhenren,” playing two roles by himself.
However, using it just to evolve Chang Sheng Zhenren was truly too wasteful.
He could completely ask Qian Zhuyan to help him create a realistic substitute Puppet.
Or temporarily disguise himself using a fourth-tier “Avatar Talisman.”
“Possesses Divine Abilities, main body battle power!?”
Lu Quanzhen’s expression changed, instantly realizing the preciousness of this exotic treasure.
If, during a battle, an Avatar with the main body’s combat power suddenly appeared, the battle power would not be a simple one plus one, but a doubled increase!
Moreover, unless the exotic treasure itself was shattered, even if the Sanbao Avatar was critically injured, it would only increase energy consumption. As long as time was spent, it could be re-nourished.
In such a situation, it was equivalent to an Avatar that feared no death!
Lu Quanzhen could already imagine his combat power when he was combined with the Sanbao Avatar.
“Father, this treasure is too precious…”
He spoke, believing that the value of the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl already surpassed many Low Grade Spirit Treasures.
“Take it. This treasure’s help to your Husband is limited. I hope it will be useful to you.”
Lu Changsheng directly retrieved the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl, erased his own imprint, and tossed it to Lu Quanzhen.
“Thank you, Father.”
Lu Quanzhen looked at the Three Treasures Avatar Pearl in his hand, and for a moment, his heart felt heavy.
After all, his Father had spent so many resources cultivating him, completely without expecting him to contribute to the Family, allowing him to choose freely.
Now, he was giving up the path his Father arranged, choosing to go to the Central Domain for experience, hoping to forge a better future.
His Father not only agreed but also supported and sponsored him so much, which truly made him feel ashamed and a mix of emotions.
With such a Father, what more could a son ask for!
Three days later, Qu Changge took Lu Quanzhen and departed for the Tianmo Sect.
Besides Lu Changsheng, Qu Zhenzhen, and Nangong Mili, no one else knew.
“Brother, you must take good care of yourself and come back when you have time. Quanzhen, you must listen to your maternal uncle and not be competitive or fight with others…”
A mother worries when her child travels far.
Although her son had already become a Late Stage Core Formation cultivator, and her brother was a Nascent Soul True Lord,
watching her son and brother leave, Qu Zhenzhen still couldn’t help but feel sad, her eyes red.
“Zhenzhen, don’t worry, your Brother will take good care of Quanzhen.”
Qu Changge felt very distressed seeing his younger sister cry, as he dreaded partings the most.
“Mother,” Lu Quanzhen also felt heavy-hearted.
“Don’t forget what you promised Mother, Brother. You’re alone out there, you can also find a sister-in-law.”
Qu Zhenzhen didn’t want her brother and son to be overly sad. Wiping away her tears, she forced a smile.
After a farewell, Qu Changge piloted the Demonic Boat, tearing through the void with Lu Quanzhen, and disappeared from sight.
“Zhenzhen, don’t worry. If Quanzhen doesn’t come back, your Husband will take you to drag him back then.”
Lu Changsheng looked at his departing brother-in-law and son, embraced his wife, and gently comforted her.
The Kunpeng spreads its wings from here, soaring straight up, one day its clouds will cover the stars and the Milky Way!
