Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 512: Chapter 205: Yu Family’s Movement, Miss Xiao Chan?_2

Therefore, the plan, which was originally to grind the Bai Family Ancestor to death, was changed to grinding Lu Yuanzhong to death.

As long as Lu Yuanzhong died, the Lu Family would be at a loss, without a new Foundation Establishment Cultivator emerging, and the Yu Family could take the opportunity to divide Qing Zhu Mountain and take the Red Leaf Valley Market into their pocket.

At that time, faced with the power of the Yu Family, the Bai Family would find it hard to stand alone and would have no choice but to submit.

If, this time, a new Foundation Establishment Cultivator were born to the Lu Family and the Bai and Lu Families continued their alliance, it would be much more difficult and troublesome for their Yu Family to swallow the Red Leaf Valley Market with two families’ strength against them.

“Doing nothing and letting the Lu Family initiate Foundation Establishment is not the style of this old ancestor,”

“Go and inform Ning Jun to accompany this old man to Qing Zhu Mountain.”

...
“Now that the Lu Family is at a critical juncture of Foundation Establishment, they naturally wouldn’t dare to meet the enemy head-on.”

“We just need to hide our identities, harass Qing Zhu Mountain, and cause the nature’s spiritual energy there to become chaotic.”

“Besides, the one in Qing Zhu Mountain who is attempting Foundation Establishment, upon hearing this disturbance, will certainly be distracted and his state of mind affected, which might lead to a failure in Foundation Establishment.”

Yu Jinyang stood with his hands behind his back and spoke.

“The ancestor is wise!”

The Patriarch of the Yu Family understood the intent of their family’s old ancestor upon hearing these words.

When a Cultivator attempts Foundation Establishment, not only is abundant spiritual energy required, but also a quiet environment.

Because the Spiritual Liquid Concentrate is transforming into mana, lifting the Dao platform, one cannot afford to be distracted.

One moment of negligence can lead to failure in Foundation Establishment.

If someone were to interfere during the process, or if a situation arises outside, one’s mentality and state of mind would surely be affected, thus affecting the Foundation Establishment.

Especially when attempting Foundation Establishment, hearing disturbances and knowing that one’s own Family is under attack would likely affect any Clan Cultivator’s state of mind and mentality.

“Ancestor, if we act in this manner, what should we do if the Lu Family goes to the Qingyun Sect to complain afterward?”

The Patriarch of the Yu Family continued to inquire.

The Qingyun Sect had regulations in place.

During the recruitment period, all major families and forces must cease any conflicts and disputes.

Furthermore, within three years, all must develop peacefully without engaging in conflict or war.

The expedition against the Xiahou Clan happened a mere half a year ago.

If the Yu Family were to commit such an act, and the Lu Family were to complain to the Qingyun Sect afterward, it could potentially bring trouble upon the Yu Family.

“Heh, how could the Qingyun Sect possibly care about such trivial matters?”

“Unless we launch a full-scale attack on the Lu Family and destroy Qing Zhu Mountain, perhaps the Qingyun Sect might send someone to question us.”

“Merely harassing and affecting Qing Zhu Mountain, why would the Qingyun Sect have the leisure to deal with such matters? Even if someone were to come, it would be nothing more than a warning and some punishment,”

Yu Jinyang scoffed upon hearing this, speaking directly.

He then turned to the Patriarch of the Yu Family and said, “Ning Yuan, the Qingyun Sect stands aloof from the world, and its actions have always been about maintaining its dignity, not upholding justice and fairness.”

“To them, our family forces are merely dogs in their eyes, and they couldn’t care less about our minor scuffles.”

“Therefore, towards the Qingyun Sect, we should hold reverence, but not excessive fear!”

Yu Jinyang spoke, his voice firm.

“Thank you for the teaching, Ancestor!”

The Patriarch of the Yu Family said, bowing his hands in response.

Soon after, Yu Jinyang left Yu Ninghu in charge of Bi Lake Mountain and, taking the newly advanced Foundation Establishment, Yu Ningjun, went to Qing Zhu Mountain.

He also sent a message to Yu Yuanshan, who was stationed at the Red Leaf Valley Market.

The three of them went to Qing Zhu Mountain together, intending to disrupt and interfere with the Foundation Establishment happening there.

…

At a mountain peak’s spiritual pool.

Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao were ‘bathing’ in the spiritual pool, grooming their Yang energy, and speaking intimate words to each other.

Suddenly, a ripple spread through the void.

Two figures appeared, and with a ‘plop,’ they fell into the pool.

One of the figures was pale-faced with no trace of blood, and upon falling into the water, began to sink with bubbling sounds.

The other figure managed to stabilize herself as she fell into the pool but, upon seeing Lu Changsheng, she froze on the spot.

In her beautiful eyes, a mix of emotions surged—surprise, astonishment, tenderness, and more—leaving her at a complete loss.

However, Lu Changsheng didn’t notice all this.

He and Ling Zixiao saw people appearing, and in the blink of an eye, their mana surged, gleaming lights flowed around their bodies, then they moved to the shore, draping their robes loosely over themselves.

Ling Zixiao leaned against Lu Changsheng with flushed cheeks.

She never would have imagined, after finally mustering the courage to comply with Lu Changsheng’s unreasonable request and agreeing to groom their Yang energy in this mountain peak spiritual pool, that they would encounter such an incident.

This left her mind a blank slate, as if muddled, her heart stricken with intense embarrassment.

Lu Changsheng was somewhat astonished as he looked towards the two who had crashed into the spiritual pool.

He wondered how the two had appeared there.

“`

He was focusing all his efforts on sorting out the yang energy for Ling Zixiao, but his Divine Sense was indeed paying attention to the surroundings.

He hadn’t noticed at all how the two managed to approach so quietly.

Moreover, around this Spiritual Pool, Ling Zixiao had laid down an ‘Inverted Five Elements Formation.’

Typically, Foundation Establishment Cultivators could not easily break through it.

Let alone enter the formation silently and without a trace.

“Lu Lang!”

Just then, Meng Xiaochan, dressed in a purple gown, emerged from the water surface, her face pale as she called out to Lu Changsheng.

Her shout was laden with a mix of emotions—surprise, joy, longing, tenderness, grievance, and more.

Earlier, she and her master Nangong Mili had faced danger in the cave and had to forcibly activate a Third-Order Teleportation Talisman to make their escape.

For her, this level of talisman was not only extremely draining to use and difficult to activate, but it was also uncontrollable; she could only rely on her master Nangong Mili’s aid to activate it.

The moment they used the talisman, they were attacked by a burst of Sword Qi.

Although they managed to escape using the Teleportation Talisman, both she and Nangong Mili were injured in the process.

But she had never imagined that the Teleportation Talisman would lead her to Lu Changsheng.

On this trip to Jiang Country, her heart had been in turmoil, wondering if she might encounter Lu Changsheng.

After all, she harbored an unstoppable longing for Lu Changsheng, and to say he filled her thoughts by day and haunted her dreams by night was by no means an exaggeration.

However, a shred of clarity and rationality in her heart made her dread seeing Lu Changsheng.

She was afraid that upon seeing Lu Changsheng, she would lose herself.

“Lu Lang?”

Ling Zixiao quickly recovered her wits and looked towards the two in the Spiritual Pool, ready to suppress them through the formation.

But upon hearing Meng Xiaochan’s sudden call of ‘Lu Lang,’ she was stunned again, with a dumbfounded expression.

What the hell, did this girl know Lu Changsheng?

Furthermore, this call of ‘Lu Lang’ gave her the impression of a long-awaited reunion, filled with tender affection.

It made her immediately realize that the relationship between the two was out of the ordinary, extremely close.

“Could it be that the two were called here by Lu Changsheng, wanting to…”

In an instant, a notion surfaced in Ling Zixiao’s mind.

But she quickly dismissed the thought the next moment.

Not out of trust in Lu Changsheng’s character.

When it came to matters of men and women, she had no particular trust in Lu Changsheng.

She had long determined that Lu Changsheng was no ordinary Cultivator.

Although such a scenario was outrageous, it was not entirely impossible.

The reason she dismissed the idea was that she could clearly sense that their appearance hadn’t triggered her formation.

It seemed as if they had arrived through the use of space-traveling spell or teleportation formation.

Yet, space-traveling spells are exceedingly profound.

Apart from the rare Mutant Spiritual Root known as ‘Sky Spirit Root,’ only Nascent Soul True Lords could master such Divine Skills.

As for teleportation formations, that’s even less likely.

One would need to be a Third-Order Top Rank Formation Master to set up such a formation.

And the process of setting one up is very complex; it’s impossible to teleport without a proper setup.

“Miss Xiao Chan?”

Lu Changsheng, hearing Meng Xiaochan’s voice and seeing the girl before him, was surprised.

He hadn’t expected that the girl who had suddenly appeared would be Meng Xiaochan.

From the information he had purchased in Jiuxiao Immortal City, he already knew that Meng Xiaochan belonged to the Five Poisons Cult of Jin Kingdom’s Demonic Path.

She should be on the run from the Heavenly Sword Sect with the Heaven Spider Emissary Nangong Mili, so how did she suddenly show up here?

“Indeed, they know each other.”

Ling Zixiao, upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s address to Meng Xiaochan, paused internally and thought to herself that they indeed knew each other, and their relationship was not ordinary.

“Hm?”

The next moment, upon seeing Meng Xiaochan’s appearance and features, her eyes instantly showed a look of surprise and doubt.

She had seen information about the Demonic Path incident in Jiuxiao Immortal City that Lu Changsheng had purchased.

The Jade Slip contained details about Meng Xiaochan, her background, and introduction.

Now seeing Meng Xiaochan, she instantly recognized that this was the Demonic Path Cultivator who was being pursued by the Heavenly Sword Sect as mentioned in the incident at Jiuxiao Immortal City.

This caused her to wonder with surprise, how Lu Changsheng had dealings with a Demon Cultivator.

Could it really be that he was some kind of heretical or demonic cultivator?
