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

Chapter 1238: Chapter 429: So What If the Lu Family Produces Several Great Fate Bearers?_3

Sima Ji also regained some clarity from the severe pain in his divine sense due to the attack, his face twisted ferociously as he looked at Lu Lingxiao.

But the next moment.

“Pfft!”

Lu Ping’an hurled the Black Dragon Halberd over, like a ferocious black dragon descending from the sky, piercing straight through Sima Ji’s chest, nailing him dead.

“Lingxiao, you can ask father more about how to fuse your Heavenly Spiritual Fire with the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art.”

Lu Ping’an turned to his younger brother and patted his shoulder.

He still clearly remembered, after the end of the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, the Elder Ancestor of the Xu Family came to hunt him and his brother Lu Quanzhen.

In the face of the Elder Ancestor of the Xu Family, their father burned his body with a purplish-red Heavenly Spiritual Fire and then vanquished the adversary with a punch.

The Heavenly Spiritual Fire of his brother Lu Lingxiao, though not as astonishing as their father’s.

But so long as he was given time to grow, it is not impossible to achieve the same.

“Yes, big brother.”

Through their time together these days, Lu Lingxiao had come to admire his elder brother profoundly.

He also recognized the dominance of body cultivation and the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art from him.

Ordinary cultivators, when facing the techniques of the same level, would have to defend against the onslaught with magical robes and magic artifacts.

Yet his elder brother just now directly ignored the other’s Gang wind with his physical body and even resisted the spiritual artifact arrows with his flesh.

This kind of fierce fighting method, unless cultivators of the same rank collaborate in a group attack or possess some exotic treasure, they would have no way to counter it.

“This this this….”

Zhou Datong, watching Lu Ping’an who seemed like a god or demon, was simply dry-throated and trembling in his spirit.

To know, an existence like the Sima Sijie was someone he could only look up to in ordinary days.

But such a renowned figure was now effortlessly suppressed and killed by this eldest son of the Lu family.

Once this news spreads out, it’s likely to shock the entire Jiang Country Cultivation Realm!

Because this is no longer the fighting strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator!

“This Eldest Young Master of the Lu Family is quite approachable on regular days; he’s in charge of the Lu Family Commerce Association. If I do my duties well, I might actually gain my freedom, and perhaps even a Second Order Breaking Stage Pill.”

At this moment, Zhou Datong fostered some thoughts of allegiance, thinking that serving the Lu family might not be so bad.

“So this is big brother’s strength!”

“With big brother here, what is there to fear on the journey ahead!”

The other Lu Family Disciples escorting the convoy also pulled themselves out of their recent fears, each one excited beyond measure.

Although they had never heard of any Sima Sijie.

But the spiritual pressure just now was the most terrifying they had ever seen.

Merely a breath of air made their qi-blood churn and breathing difficult.

Yet such beings were all blasted to their death by their own big brother, Uncle’s punch by punch; what could there possibly be to fear on the rest of their journey.

“Ping’an, thank you for your hard work.”

At this moment, Ling Zixiao glanced at the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox beside her, and as her daughter Lu Linghe stepped out of the carriage, she addressed the eldest son of the Lu Family.

Even though she was well aware of the capabilities of the Thousand Faces Puppet Fox, the effect just now was still beyond her expectations.

“Thanks to Auntie Ling.”

Lu Ping’an knew that Ling Zixiao had taken action just now.

Otherwise, even if he could win, he wouldn’t have been able to kill all four.

It could be said that these four were the strongest opponents he had faced since he set out on his path.

Each of them had profound strength, and their techniques complemented each other.

“Now that the beasts of burden have been frightened, we can no longer continue on our journey. Ping’an, you should also rest well, recover your condition, and wait for the upcoming battle.”

Ling Zixiao, dressed in a lake blue palace dress, her figure dignified and elegant, said with a light smile.

“The upcoming battle?”

Lu Lingxiao and Lu Ruyi beside her were both startled and somewhat surprised when they heard this.

“These four were the seeds of the Sima Family’s current generation.”

“Rumors have it that the four had acquired an opportunity for inheritance, and their cultivation methods are enhanced when practiced together, not to say necessarily achieving Core Formation simultaneously, but they are also likely to reach False Core.”

“Now that the four are dead, the Patriarch of the Sima Family will certainly not sit still and will come to seek vengeance.”

With a slight smile and an offhanded manner, Ling Zixiao said.

“The False Core Patriarch!”

“The False Core Immortal!”

Everyone nearby was shocked upon hearing this.

Even Lu Ping’an’s heart skipped a beat.

Although he had advanced to the eighth layer of the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Art, he had just made the breakthrough recently and had not yet developed divine skills.

If he encounters a False Core Immortal, the outcome may be difficult to predict.

“Rest assured, unless the Sima Family sends two of their False Core real people, or invites their Mysterious Turtle, there’s no need to worry.”

“This battle also serves to establish the might of our Blue Lake Mountain, deterring others from constantly seeking trouble with us.”

Ling Zixiao said softly.

Even though she usually doesn’t concern herself with family affairs, she had spent time understanding the power dynamics of the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, especially the family forces of the Qingyun Region.

After speaking, she turned to look at Lu Ping’an and continued, “After this battle, every move you make will be watched by others.”

“Ping’an will follow Auntie Ling’s arrangements.”

Lu Ping’an said with his hands clasped in salute.

His father had instructed him, if he was uncertain about anything during this trade mission, he could consult Auntie Ling.

Therefore, upon hearing the other party, he did not raise any questions and chose to trust.

“Mother, wouldn’t this be too dangerous? Didn’t father say that harmony is precious?”

Lu Lingxiao spoke up.

Although he had faith in his mother.

Yet, this was essentially a confrontation with a False Core Immortal, which seemed too risky in his eyes.

Ling Zixiao glanced at her son and spoke, “It’s true that harmony is precious, but excessive concession only makes us seem weak and susceptible to bullying, leading others to push us even further.”

“Our family must now show some toughness to secure a footing for the Commerce Association.”

“Besides, now that a fight has happened, even if we return to Blue Lake Mountain, the Sima Family will still come looking for us.”

“In that case, it’s better to settle the grudges here directly.”

“This battle will also signal to other forces that we at Blue Lake Mountain do not provoke trouble, yet we do not fear it either. Should anyone dare to trouble our family, they better weigh their options carefully.”

“Moreover, the six False Core families have always been fighting overtly and covertly. The Jin Family already has a bad relationship with us; if we also antagonize the Sima Family, the other families will surely be more than happy to forge good relations with us.”

“Some of the family forces around the Sima Family will also take the initiative to reach out and cooperate with us.”

Ling Zixiao patiently explained to her son, “As for the wrath of the Sima Family… there’s no need to care about it.”

Although she approved of her husband’s principles,

She believed that sometimes it was necessary to be more assertive.

While it may attract trouble and unwanted attention, it also prevents a lot of hassles.

Furthermore, the events at the Red Leaf Valley Market, along with the continuous Foundation Establishment breakthroughs of the children at home, meant that the family’s situation couldn’t be concealed after all.

Instead of hiding and pretending, it’s better to frankly reveal some information to others.

If Lu Ping’an shows False Core strength, then our family would be completely regarded as a False Core family.

Isn’t it quite normal for the family to have a few more Foundation Establishment Cultivators then?

As for the fact that Lu Ping’an is so young yet has the power of a Quasi-Third Order Body Refining and False Core level… although this matter is exaggerated and astonishing,

It’s not so shocking in the eyes of Core Formation Cultivators and Nascent Soul True Lords throughout the Cultivation World.

After all, the Cultivation World is filled with countless opportunities and miracles.

Why couldn’t our Blue Lake Mountain Lu Family produce a few individuals of great fortune?

It’s precisely because Lu Ping’an has encountered great opportunities and fortune that he has such Body Refining strength at a young age.

It’s also because of such miraculous encounters that our Blue Lake Mountain has seen a surge of Foundation Establishment Cultivators!

As long as we don’t draw the attention of Nascent Soul True Lords, these False Core families, and even Core Formation noble families, are nothing but whetstones for my children’s growth.”

“The child understands…”

Lu Lingxiao nodded thoughtfully.

In his younger years, his mother had taught him many life lessons.

But having always been in Blue Lake Mountain, he felt that many of his mother’s words clashed with what he had heard elsewhere.

Only now, during this trip, did he start to grasp the meaning of some of her words.

“This trip has been rewarding. Xiaohe, go with your elder brother and sister Ruyi to sort things out.”

Ling Zixiao smiled at her daughter.

The battle was bloody and brutal, and she didn’t want her daughter to get too involved.

But her daughter loved sorting through their battle spoils.

Even if she did not get much herself, just being involved in the tally could make her happy for quite a while.

“Big Pot!”

Lu Linghe immediately looked at Lu Ping’an with bright and sparkling eyes.

“Xiaohe, you and Ruyi will do just fine sorting things out, big brother needs to rest for a bit.”

Lu Ping’an patted her little head and grinned.

He was preparing to restore himself to peak condition as soon as possible since he would soon face a False Core real person.

Although the previous battle only lasted a few exchanges, it was not small in consumption.

Seeing her daughter happily calculating their gains with Lu Ruyi, Ling Zixiao also took her son, Lu Lingxiao, to set up formations around them and taught him about formation knowledge.

While she downplayed this battle, she was also making preparations to ensure everything was foolproof, to avoid any accidents.
