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

Chapter 594: Chapter 231: Use your Bi Lake Mountain’s spiritual land as compensation!_1

Yu Family Ancestral Hall, lights flickering on and off.

“How is this possible, how could it be!?”

Yu Ninghu, who was usually stable and composed, knelt on the ground, his eyes bloodshot as he stared at the three shattered Jade Tokens in front of him.

Next to him, Yu Ningyuan also wore a grave expression, eyes circling the broken Jade Tokens, his face filled with sorrow and grief.

Now that Yu Jinyang and the other two had perished, the Yu Family was left with only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Yu Ninghu.

It was said that if a family had a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator seated in authority, it was enough to stabilize the situation.

...
But now, with the simultaneous death of Yu Jinyang and the other two, they were filled with unspeakable panic.

They couldn’t comprehend how their ancestor and the other two suddenly perished.

“Our ancestor and Ning Jun went to Qingzhu Mountain, how did they all die together!”

“Even if Lu Changsheng possesses a heaven-defying opportunity, he is nothing more than a Cultivator who has just made a breakthrough in Foundation Establishment. How could he have killed our three ancestors!”

“Even if Lu Yuanzhong fought to the death and fully activated the Qingzhu Mountain Family’s Great Formation, it would still be impossible…”

“Besides, given Lu Yuanzhong’s current state, fully activating the Great Formation to fend off enemies would mean certain death, and it would severely impact Lu Miaoge who is undergoing Foundation Establishment, leading to her failure…”

“Therefore, the Lu Family definitely wouldn’t do such a thing, nor do they have the ability to kill our ancestors!”

Yu Ninghu’s mind raced as he analyzed the situation.

In his mind, there was no way his own ancestors could have died at the hands of the Lu Family.

Their ancestor Yu Jinyang was a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Great Cultivator with staggering strength.

The second ancestor Yu Yuanshan was an old Foundation Establishment cultivator at the Third Level!

And on the Lu Family’s side, Lu Changsheng, Lu Yuanzhong, even if we count Bai Yunyang, the Bai Family Ancestor, there were only three Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Among them, two had just recently broken through Foundation Establishment.

Although Lu Yuanzhong was a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator for many years…

He was on brink of death with poison in his viscera, and not even equivalent to an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Under such circumstances, how could they have possibly killed his own ancestors.

“Could it be… that our ancestors encountered Demon Cultivators on their way!?”

Yu Ninghu mulled over this possibility for a long time.

“If it was a Demon Cultivator…”

His expression grew solemn as he thought more, increasingly feeling that it was a possibility.

Although Xiahou Monie’s movements were mysterious and unpredictable.

Their strength was undeniable.

And his Yu Family had participated in the battle at Blackwater Pool.

If his ancestors really encountered Xiahou Monie on their way to Qingzhu Mountain and fell to his treachery, it would explain everything.

“If it’s really Xiahou Monie’s doing, they might very well make a move on Bi Lake Mountain…”

Yu Ninghu murmured to himself, his expression grave.

Xiahou Monie was domineering in his actions, acting only to loot and destroy.

If they had really killed his ancestors, using their Identity Jade, they might sneak into Bi Lake Mountain.

The news that Feng Family Fortress was annihilated overnight by a Demon Cultivator was still fresh in his mind.

“Ning Yuan, quickly send the order, activate the Great Formation, impose a full lockdown on Bi Lake Mountain, and allow no one to leave or enter!”

“At the same time, send someone to the Qingyun Sect, claiming there is evidence of Xiahou Monie’s presence; Xiahou Monie might possibly attack our Bi Lake Mountain.”

Yu Ninghu immediately stood up and said to the Patriarch of the Yu Family, Yu Ningyuan.

“Yes, big brother.”

Yu Ningyuan replied through clenched teeth, his eyes still bloodshot, then walked out of the ancestral hall to make arrangements.

“Oh heavens, why have you forsaken our Yu Family!”

Yu Ninghu looked at the shattered Jade Tokens, clenched his fists, and expressed his discontent.

His Yu Family had struggled for generations, and now they had four Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators, two in the prime of life, with promising futures!

The Wugong Ridge Zheng Family, Qingzhu Mountain Lu Family, Hundred Birds Lake Bai Family, were all in decline.

Within at most ten years, his Yu Family might annex the three families and stride towards further advancement!

But today, their efforts had turned to ash.

“Ancestor, rest assured, I will support the Family!”

Yu Ninghu looked at the Jade Tokens in front of him, took a deep breath, determined look in his eyes, took a step back, bowed deeply and solemnly pledged.

Then he turned around and walked out of the ancestral hall.

Earlier, he and Yu Jinyang had gone to Jiuxiao Immortal City to secretly cultivate to Foundation Establishment.

To avoid arousing the envy of other families by having too many Foundation Establishment members in the household.

Thus, he focused on serene cultivation at home.

Apart from the core members of the family, he had never revealed his breakthrough in Foundation Establishment to the outside world.

But from this moment on, he needed to stand out and take on the heavy responsibility of the family!

…

Five Spirit Boats were shuttling through the clouds.

“Changsheng, how do you plan to deal with the Yu Family?”

“Although we hold the moral high ground, if we were to obliterate Bi Lake Mountain at this time, it might provoke the Qingyun Sect to send someone.”

“Moreover, if you want to establish a family, you must consider the reputation of the family.”

“Taking over Bi Lake Mountain, if we do it too ruthlessly, it’s likely to attract some criticism, making the surrounding families unhappy, which is not conducive to the future development of the family.”

“Also, there are many members of the Yu Family out there; if we can’t eradicate them completely, we’ll also have to face the Yu Family’s frenzied retaliation.”

From the Spirit Boat, Lu Yuanzhong spoke to Lu Changsheng.

Now that Yu Jinyang, Yu Yuanshan, and Yu Ningjun of the Yu Family had died, taking down Bi Lake Mountain seemed to him to be just a matter of time.

But given that these were extraordinary times.

Making a scene too loudly and if the Yu Family’s people or other family powers were to report it to the Qingyun Sect…

When the Qingyun Sect stepped in, the matter would not be about justice or who’s right and who’s wrong.

It would be about the dignity of the Supreme Sect!

Furthermore, there were still many Yu Family Cultivators handling business outside.

Once Bi Lake Mountain was captured, an unending feud with the Yu Family would ensue, resulting in their frenzied retaliation.

“Zi Xiao, what’s your take?”

Lu Changsheng pondered for a moment, then inquired of Ling Zixiao.

He had naturally considered these issues.
