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

Chapter 850: Chapter 311: Xi Yue, how about I go and propose to your master on your behalf?_2

“`

The difficult part was integrating mana into the Musical Technique.

Nonetheless, Lu Changsheng used the simplest and most direct teaching method, doing it himself, which conveyed a sense of achievement.

…

Half a month later, Xu Ruyin emerged from her retreat.

She had successfully contracted the Heavenly Demon Phoenix as her Life-bound Beast!

...
Although the once-infant Heavenly Demon Phoenix did not show a significant increase in strength after the full contract, it seemed to have grown up a lot.

“Husband.”

Xu Ruyin came to see Lu Changsheng first thing.

Clad in a fiery red dress, her tall and alluring figure was complemented by her red hair which now seemed to have an added tinge of pale golden sheen, bestowing her with an even more noble, sacred aura.

Lu Changsheng had looked over the Beast Technique and knew that cultivating it would induce changes based on the contracted demon beast.

“Yes, not bad.”

Lu Changsheng gazed at the Xu Ruyin before him and nodded slightly.

Senior Red Lotus was overseeing everything, so there was no chance for any mishaps during her cultivation.

“When do you plan to attempt Foundation Establishment?”

Lu Changsheng asked.

“I will follow my husband’s wishes.”

Xu Ruyin answered, her red lips gently parted.

“Do you need the Foundation Establishment Elixir for your breakthrough?”

Lu Changsheng inquired.

If she needed the Foundation Establishment Elixir to break through, he would send Xu Ruyin back to the Xu Family to do so, rather than wasting the elixir.

After all, since he had given her the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, he no longer entertained the thought of keeping her captive.

On the one hand, she was nearly ready to return.

On the other, he had promised senior Red Lotus.

As long as Xu Ruyin was obedient and performed well, he would let her go, and might even reward her.

Now that she had fulfilled these conditions, it would be against his nature to be deceitful.

Moreover, it was not his intention to keep Xu Ruyin confined within Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven indefinitely.

It was not only impractical, but also a waste.

According to what he knew, no one from Wugong Ridge Zheng Family had managed to achieve Foundation Establishment for years, and the family was thoroughly under the control of the Yu Shui Xu Family, with no possibility of reclaiming the Spirit Land.

The Yu Shui Xu Family had initially taken the Wugong Ridge Zheng Family under their wing because they coveted the Spirit Land at Wugong Ridge.

On the one hand, the location was rich in Spiritual Insects which suited the Beast Taming Xu Family’s industry.

Additionally, they planned to use Wugong Ridge as a strategic location to expand business once Xu Ruyin or another family youth managed a Foundation Establishment breakthrough.

Hence, Lu Changsheng was considering releasing Xu Ruyin to plant a seed for future possibilities.

“Now that I have the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, I do not need the Foundation Establishment Elixir.”

Xu Ruyin said softly.

The Beast Technique she practiced was profound, and her spiritual power had already been refined to perfection.

Now with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix contracted as her Life-bound Beast, she was confident she could break through without the elixir.

“Alright, if that’s the case, then attempt your Foundation Establishment here.”

“It will also make it easier to explain when you return to the Xu Family after the breakthrough.”

Lu Changsheng stated.

“Return home!?”

Hearing this, Xu Ruyin’s heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly looked up at Lu Changsheng with eyes brimming with joy and disbelief.

She had thought she wouldn’t be able to leave for decades.

But now, Lu Changsheng was saying she could go back after her Foundation Establishment.

She had nearly spent eight years in Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven, and it was impossible for her not to miss her home.

After all, her parents and grandfather must be extremely worried, having not returned for so long.

“Of course, I made a promise before that as long as you behaved, I would let you go.”

Lu Changsheng looked into her incredulous eyes, pinched her cheek affectionately, and said with a light laugh.

“Thank you, my husband!”

In that moment, Xu Ruyin’s heart was filled with endless gratitude, and she was moved to tears.

“Hehe, alright, spend the next few days resting well, and then prepare for your Foundation Establishment.”

Observing her reaction, Lu Changsheng gently stroked her smooth, shiny hair, and spoke softly.

Then he continued, “By the way, I need to speak with Senior Red Lotus.”

“Senior Red Lotus,”

Xu Ruyin immediately called for Red Lotus.

Instantly, an ancient talisman, the size of two fingers and etched with bizarre beast patterns, flew out from her forehead.

The talisman glowed, with countless tiny red specks emerging, coalescing into a sacred figure wearing a bejeweled crown and red-gold embroidered lavish palace dress, with a perfect face and an ethereal form.

“Young master.”

Senior Red Lotus’s gentle and elegant voice rang out.

“Senior Red Lotus, do you know of any methods to cultivate and rapidly grow a Spirit Vein, other than the Spiritual Origin Pearl and Spiritual Spring?”

“Is there anything that can rapidly promote the growth and advancement of a Spirit Vein?”

Lu Changsheng addressed Red Lotus with his question.

“Spiritual Vein Cultivation Method?”

Upon hearing this, Red Lotus said softly, “The Vermilion Bird Palace where I was once situated indeed had methods to expedite the growth of Spirit Veins.”

“But these methods require the consumption of vast quantities of precious resources.”

“They also require the arrangement by a Fengshui Master and Dragon Seeker…”

Senior Red Lotus spoke up, indicating she was aware of the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures that could be used to speed up the growth of a Spirit Vein.

However, unlike the simple presence of a Spiritual Origin Pearl or Spiritual Spring, these required a Fengshui Master and Dragon Seeker to arrange.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to integrate into the Spirit Vein and might even affect its natural conditions.

While she was proficient in a number of skills, she had not mastered these two techniques.

“Fengshui Master, Dragon Seeker…”

Lu Changsheng’s brow quirked.

He had heard of Dragon Seekers, known to be experts in the Vein Probing Technique, skilled in locating Spirit Veins and Spiritual Springs.

However, he hadn’t heard of Fengshui Masters.

“That’s right…”

Senior Red Lotus confirmed, and began to describe these professions to Lu Changsheng.

Fengshui Masters could comb through Earth veins and alter Fengshui patterns to accelerate the growth of Spirit Veins.

High-Rank Fengshui Masters could even influence the nebulous fortunes of the heavens and earth through Fengshui layouts.

This art was exceedingly rare, and only a very few could master it.
